Considerable seasonal variations were exhibited by mitotic activities of thymocytes in CBA mice. In April and May they were about twice as high as in October and November. Biorhythmic changes in mitotic activity of thymocytes should be taken into consideration for any study of drug effects on the thymus.

Gene fusions involving JAZF1 are a recurrent event in low grade endometrial stromal sarcoma, and have been more recently described in few instances of endometrial stromal sarcoma-like tumors in the genitourinary tract of men. In this article, we describe a previously unreported spindle cell sarcoma harboring an in-frame JAZF1::NUDT5 gene fusion, arising in the chest wall of a 51-year-old man. The tumor had unique morphologic features resembling both endometrial stromal sarcoma and endometrial stromal sarcoma-like tumors, consisting of a mixture of cytologically bland and pleomorphic spindle cells with brisk mitotic activity, within an alternating myxoid and fibrous stroma.

Background: Unraveling the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC) can aid in developing prevention and treatment strategies. Aurora kinase A (AURKA) is a key participant in mitotic control and interacts with its co-activator, the targeting protein for Xklp2 (TPX2) microtubule nucleation factor. AURKA is associated with poor clinical outcomes and high risks of CRC recurrence.

The biotransformation of compounds is a critical point in understanding their toxic effects in both toxicology and ecotoxicology. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether there is a difference in the phytogenotoxic potential of the commercial fungicide Nativo® between non-biotransformed samples and samples biotransformed by swine liver enzymes. The fungicide Nativo is a mixture of Tebuconazole (TEB; 200 g L) and Trifloxystrobin (TRI; 100 g L).

Validation of Tumor Budding as a Prognostic Factor in Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma Using an Independent Cohort.

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is an endometriosis-related neoplasm, in which traditional histologic grading does not show prognostic significance. Tumor budding was associated with poorer outcomes in OCCC in previous studies. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of tumor budding in OCCC in an independent cohort.

Cytoplasmic dynein is an essential microtubule motor protein that powers organelle transport and mitotic spindle assembly. Its activity depends on dynein-dynactin-cargo adaptor complexes, such as dynein-dynactin-BicD2 (DDB), which typically function with two dynein motors. We show that mechanical tension recruits a third dynein motor via an auxiliary BicD adaptor binding the light intermediate chain of the third dynein, stabilizing multi-dynein assemblies and enhancing force generation.
