Macroautophagy-aided elimination of chromatin
30 Aug 2012
Abstract excerpt
How tumor cells process damaged or unwanted DNA is a matter of much interest. Recently, Rello-Varona et al. (Cell Cycle 2012; 11:170–76) reported the involvement of macroautophagy (hereon autophagy) in the elimination of micronuclei (MN) from osteosarcoma cells. Prior to that, diminution of whole nuclei from multinucleated TP53-mutant tumor cells was described. Here, we discuss these two kinds of chromatin...
