In human lymphocytic metaphasis chromosomes sodium glycocholate induces a banding of chromatids and an intense apparently perichromatic labelling, reproducible on the same points of various chromosomal pairs. Arginine makes centromeric heterochromatin visible.
Six antitumoral drugs were tested in human lymphocytes cultures. Our observations pointed out specific abnormalities beside more usual chromosomal aberrations. These lesions are mainly telomeric and chromatidic fusions, chromomerisations and despiralizations. We present an interpretation of these abnormalities.

The authors describe cytogenetic aberrations observed in a case of T prolymphocytic leukemia. C11 deletion (q14) B5 deletion (pter), D14q +, E20 trisomy, and two markers are the main anomalies of the complement.
A case of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) in a young woman with a new variant Ph1-translocation--i.e., t(8;22) (q24;q12)--is described. The clinical and biological aspects of the disease did not seem to differ from those of the usual cases of CML.
A patient with trisomy 9p in association with monosomy of the heterochromatic distal portion of the Y chromosome is reported. The rearrangement is probably due to malsegregation of a translocation 9p, Y and formation of an iso (9p). The phenotype of the patient is characteristic of trisomy 9p. There is a significant increase of GALT activity.

Human meiotic chromosomes, from spermatocytes and ovocytes, are described after observations of whole mount preparations under E.M. Small testicular and ovarian fragments are put in distillated water, then macerated; the cell suspension is spread on the surface of sheet copper grids covered with formvar plus collodion films. After dehydratation interesting stages are selected under L.M. before observations under E.M. Zygotene and pachytene are the most common stages. During pachytene the chromomeres are well individualized; the synaptonemal complex may be observed; chromatin fibers connect the chromosomes to nuclear pores, interchromosomal fibers joint the bivalents. Zygotene and pachytene bivalents are very similar in the male and the feminine germ cells.
Partial trisomy of chromosome 18 (pter leads to q122) due to a maternal t(9;18) is described. The proband's phenotype which includes many features of Edward's syndrome, is compared to other cases of partial trisomy 18 already reported.
Ultrastructural studies of cultured skin fibroblasts derived from an individual affected with Tay-Sachs disease (GM2 gangliosidosis variant B) diagnosed by clinical observation and hexosaminidase A deficiency, revealed several lamellar lysosomal inclusions. These inclusions are not seen in cultured fibroblasts and cultured amniotic fluid cells derived from individuals heterozygotic for Tay-Sachs disease. Normal cells were cultured and observed for comparison.
Partial trisomy 15 was observed in a newborn with malformations of the head and extremities. A t(5;15) translocation was found in the mother and maternal grandfather.
Mitotic human chromosomes are successively irradiated by ultraviolet, incubated with serum from a patient showing systemic lupus erythematosus (S.L.E.), and antihuman Sheep serum conjugated with peroxidase. After revelation by diaminobenzidine (DAB) banding patterns are pointed out. The chromosome labelling is discussed in comparison with results obtained in other immunocytochemical experiments.

The authors observed in electronic microscopy the methyl-bis-beta chlorethylamine action (nitrogen mustard) on normal human chromosomes. The effects were obtained in vitro after colchicine blocking and on grids after fixation. The action is remarkable on the fiber and on the chromatid's structure.
