Genotoxins exaggerate the stressed state of aneuploid embryonic stem cells via activation of autophagy.

Abstract excerpt

The cellular consequences of aneuploidy are largely dependent on the cell types examined. Aneuploid yeasts and mouse embryonic fibroblasts exhibit cell proliferation defects and can be selectively inhibited by compounds that cause proteotoxic or energy stress. By contrast, most aneuploid pluripotent stem cells proliferate rapidly and reach higher saturation densities. The responses of aneuploid pluripotent stem...
