Task 1: Cell cycle phases, „DNA-ploidy“ examination
• The graph shows numerical distribution of bone marrow cells related to the DNA concentration.
• The cells were stained with a fluorescent dye that binds to DNA.
• Using the fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS) the cells were divided according to their different DNA concentration in the nuclei.
![Page 11: Practical 2 07](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5560e1fcd8b42a3d768b4add/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Task 1 – questions• Why cells of different
DNA concentration are present in the sample?
• Why the curve has two peaks?
• Is it possible to determine relative duration of the cell cycle phases?

• Area between two peaks – S phase cells (they have different DNA concentration, therefore they don't create any peak).

Task 2: How to observe mouse chromosomes
• Find the chromosomes or interphase nuclei on the slide using 6x or 10x objective lens.
• Change the objective magnification into 40 or 45x and observe chromosomes. Compare the picture in the microscope with adjacent photo.
• Enumerate chromosomes in the photo.• How many chromosomes are present in the
nuclei of mouse somatic cells? • Describe their shape and determine type of
chromosomes.

Task 3: Observing mitosis in onion root tip cells
• The root tip is prepared for staining by treating it with 1M hydrochloric acid, which exposes aldehydes, present in the chromosomal DNA, to which the stain may then attach.
• The root tip is stained with Schiff reagent, a dye mixture containing fuchsine that adheres to the aldehyde groups exposed in step 1, thereby coloring the chromosomes and interphase nuclei a deep magenta.
• The cells are dispersed into a single layer on a slide, and the slide is prepared for microscopic observation.

Task 3: How to observe mitosis in onion root tips?
• Find cells on the slide using 6x or 10x objective lens.
• Change the objective magnification into 40x or 45x. Find the area where actively dividing cells are present.
• Observe the cells in this area and compare them to adjacent photos until you can easily recognize cells in interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Task 3 – examination of mitotic cells
• Using the same high magnification, count the number of cells in each of these phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.
• Examine approximately 20-30 of dividing cells. Put down their numbers to the table.
• Are portions of cells representing each mitotic phase equal or not? Explain your results.

Mutagenic factor
• = genotoxic factor
• A chemical, physical or biological agent causing
the DNA damage that could result in mutation.
• Majority of mutagenic agents have carcinogenic
activity (they cause transformation of a normal
cell into a tumor one).

Task 3 - mitosis
• Number of mitotic phases
– The share of cells in various mitotic phases is
different.
– Majority of cells is present in prophase - this
phase takes the longest time period of the M-
phase.
![Page 32: Practical 2 07](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062319/5560e1fcd8b42a3d768b4add/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Mitosis in tumor cellsImpairment of cell cycle regulation could result in the
malignant transformation of normal cell. Tumor cells have usually high mitotic activity that leads to chromosomal
defects (mainly changes of chromosome number).

Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorter
• The quantitative measurement of the DNA content of cells was one of the earliest applications in flow cytometry. It has become possible by specific fluorescent dyes which bound to the double helix of nuclear DNA. The fluorescence inside the cell nucleus can easily be detected using this method. Thus, the amount of DNA for cell populations can be studied regarding:
– the cell cycle– the ploidy level
• Fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS) measures DNA concentration according to fluorescence intensity. It allows us to measure DNA concentration in cells of patients with hematological and other malignancies.
