Fig. 1

Chromosomal content of micronuclei (MN) in binucleated human leukocytes. The MN in mitomycin C- and bleomycin-treated human leukocytes were sequentially analyzed by three-color FISH using centromeric probes (cep) and whole chromosome paints (wcp). Mitomycin C-induced MN containing centromeric (a) and euchromatin-derived (b) material of chromosome 8. Mitomycin C-induced MN with centromeric (c) and euchromatin-derived (d) material of chromosome 20. Bleomycin-induced MN containing only euchromatic DNA derived from chromosome 16 (e and f). Bleomycin-induced MN with signal for 1q12 (g) and euchromatin-derived material of chromosome 1 (h)
