AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Genome instability can lead to a wide variety of diseases. Many endogenous and exogenous factors influence the level of damage to genetic material. Genome integrity depends on factors such as the fidelity of DNA replication, normal DNA organization in the chromosomes, and repair mechanisms. Genome stability influences fertility, embryonic development, and the maintenance of pregnancy. In the case of in vitro fertilization, it can be an important factor determining the success of the procedure. The aim of the study was to assess the stability of the genomes of recipient cows following in vitro fertilization using cytogenetic tests and to analyze the effects of selected vitamins and micro- and macroelements on genome integrity. Genome stability was analyzed using the sister chromatid exchange, fragile site, and comet assays. The material for analysis was peripheral blood from 20 Holstein-Friesian heifers that were embryo transfer recipients. The effect of selected micro- and macroelements and vitamins on the genome stability of the cows was analyzed. Folic acid was shown to significantly influence the level of damage identified using the SCE, FS, and SCGE assays, while iron affected SCE and SCGE results, and zinc affected FS.

Repeated sequences spread throughout the genome play important roles in shaping the structure of chromosomes and facilitating the generation of new genomic variation through structural rearrangements. Several mechanisms of structural variation formation use shared nucleotide similarity between repeated sequences as substrate for ectopic recombination. We performed genome-wide analyses of direct and inverted intrachromosomal repeated sequence pairs with >200bp and >80% sequence identity in three human genome assemblies, GRCh37, GRCh38, and the T2T-CHM13 alternate assembly.

Microsatellite instability (MSI) detection using tumor tissue is a well-established prognostic and predictive biomarker for certain types of cancers. However, tumor tissue samples are less convenient to obtain than blood plasma samples. The main challenge facing next-generation sequencing-based MSI detection in blood plasma samples is the ultralow signal/noise ratio in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA).

During mitosis, chromosomes condense, align to form a metaphase plate and segregate to the two daughter cells. Mitosis is one of the most complex recurring transformations in the life of a cell and requires a high degree of reliability to ensure the error-free transmission of genetic information to the next cell generation. An abnormally prolonged mitosis indicates potential defects that compromise genomic integrity.

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) is a significant pathogen in the swine industry. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNA molecules, have risen to prominence as key regulators of gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Their significance in regulating virus-host interactions is now widely acknowledged.
