Human embryos are very prone to genetic abnormalities, which is why so many pregnancies fail in the first few weeks.
They found that an enzyme in yeast cells degrades the ends of certain chromosomes, leaving them prone to further abnormalities.
In line with this idea, a study published in 2008 found that rhesus macaque embryos are also prone to genetic abnormalities.
Campbell's dwarf hamster is prone to genetic abnormalities in the metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids.
In addition, posterior circulation might be particularly prone to cerebrovascular abnormalities in migraine [ 52, 54, 71].
HIV patients on HAART are prone to metabolic abnormalities, including insulin resistance, lipodystrophy and diabetes.
However, HIV patients on HAART are prone to metabolic abnormalities, including insulin resistance, lipodystrophy and diabetes (1).
That rate points to possible confounding circumstances, Sullivan suggests: for instance, the people living in the region could be genetically prone to such abnormalities, or they may be exposed to some other environmental factor that triggers such outcomes, for example pesticide residues in foods.
As one potential explanation for the tumor latency differences between the p53−/− and 3 month p53 deleted mice, we hypothesize that p53 has a significant protective effect on genomic integrity during embryogenesis and early postnatal development, when cell division rates are high and prone to potential chromosomal abnormalities.
Some neurodegenerative diseases at early stage may not drastically affect basic gait ability, whereas more demanding locomotor tasks are more prone to disease-induced abnormalities.
