As the tumour grows, cancer cells may fail to attach to each other, spreading through the body where they may form secondary tumours. This process is called metastasis. Characteristics Grow quickly.

The nucleus of a germline stem cell undergoes two divisions, firstly separating homologous chromosomes and secondly separating chromatids. Haploid gametes contain 23 single chromosomes.

PLK1 is involved in many processes inside the cell, hence the usual approach of inhibiting it altogether would have disrupted its functioning. "The main challenge was to isolate only the specific ...

For human tissues, prior experimental manipulations are impractical, and genomic alterations are employed. Somatic mutations mark subclones and their fates can be reconstructed with DNA sequencing ...
