Irradiation of primary human gliomas triggers dynamic and aggressive survival responses involving microvesicle signaling.

abstract：:Data on human trisomic conceptuses suggest that the extra chromosome commonly has a maternal origin, and the amount and position of crossing-over on nondisjoined chromosomes is commonly altered. These observations may provide important clues to the etiology of human germ cell aneuploidy, especially in regard to evalua...
