A study determines the prevalence of mutations in two polymerases in patients with hereditary cancer

A team from the IDIBELL-ICO Hereditary Cancer group has studied more than 2,800 patients with a possible hereditary cancer to determine the frequency of pathogenic mutations in the corrective region of two polymerases.
Identifying these mutations can facilitate the early diagnosis and the personalized treatment of these patients.

The study of lysosomal function during cell division enables the identification of a new biomarker for chromosomal instability

By studying the role of lysosomes in mitosis, an IDIBELL and UB group discovers that alterations in the separation of chromosomes cause a detectable nucleus morphology once mitosis has finished. This morphology would be useful to identify cells that have chromosomal instability inherent in cancer cells.
