  • Title: Cell cycle dependent changes of chromosomes in mouse fibroblasts.
    Author: Moser GC, Müller H.
    Journal: Eur J Cell Biol; 1979 Jun; 19(2):116-9. PubMed ID: 467455.
    Abstract:
    Mouse fibroblast interphase nuclei stained with quinacrine dihydrochloride show distinctive differences in their fluorescent characteristics analogous to those which we have already observed in human and Syrian hamster cells. These patterns reflect the position of any given nucleus within the cell cycle. The brightly fluorescent chromocenters in the mouse nuclei were found to be in absolute aggreement with those stained by the C-banding technique, indicating that they represent centromeric heterochromatin. Furthermore, their number and size per nucleus were shown to vary in relation to the progress of the cell cycle.
