abstract = {Chromosomal instability is one of the hallmarks of cancer
and caused by chromosome missegregation during mitosis, a
process frequently associated with micronucleus formation.
Micronuclei are formed when chromosomes fail to join a
daughter nucleus during cell division and are surrounded by
their own nuclear membrane. Although it has been commonly
assumed that the gain or loss of specific chromosomes is
random during compromised cell division, recent data suggest
that the size of chromosomes can impact on chromosome
segregation fidelity. To test whether chromosome
missegregation rates scale with chromosome size in primary
human cancer cells, we assessed chromosome sequestration
into micronuclei in patient-derived primary NCH149
glioblastoma cells, which display high-level numerical
chromosome instability (CIN), pronounced spontaneous
micronucleus formation but virtually no structural CIN. The
cells were analysed by interphase
fluorescence-in-situ-hybridization (FISH) using
chromosome-specific painting probes for all chromosomes.
Overall, $33\%$ of early passage NCH149 cells harbored
micronuclei. Entrapment within a micronucleus clearly
correlated with chromosome size with larger chromosomes
being significantly more frequently missegregated into
micronuclei than smaller chromosomes in primary glioblastoma
cells. These findings extend the concept that chromosome
size determines segregation fidelity by implying that
size-specific micronucleus entrapment occurs in primary
human cancer cells as well. This article is protected by
