Ацентрия (Acentric)

Acentria is a condition in which a chromosome or fragment of chromatid lacks a centromere, making it unable to attach to the spindles and usually resulting in loss of the chromosome during cell division. This phenomenon can be caused by genetic mutations or the effects of radiation on cells.

Acentric chromosomes can be found in cells that have been exposed to radiation, which can lead to various diseases such as radiation damage, leukemia and others.

In genetics, acentric chromosomes can also be associated with various genetic diseases such as Down syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome and others. In such cases, acentric chromosomes are one of the signs of a genetic disorder.

In the treatment of glaucoma, when intraocular pressure is too high, diuretics such as acetozalamide are used to lower the pressure. However, this drug may cause various side effects such as drowsiness, numbness in the limbs, and tingling.

Acentria is a phenomenon in which a chromosome or part of it lacks a centromere, resulting in its inability to attach to the spindle. Such chromosomes are usually lost during cell division, especially in those that have been exposed to radiation.

Acentricity is a term used in genetics to describe a chromosomal defect in which the centromere is missing. Acentric chromosomes can be lost during cell division and can result from exposure to radiation.

In medicine, acentric is used to diagnose certain genetic disorders. For example, with Down syndrome, patients may have acentric chromosomes.

One of the most common side effects of acentric is drowsiness. This effect may be caused by a disruption in the normal process of cell division in the body.

Diamox is a diuretic that is used as a drug to treat glaucoma. It reduces intraocular pressure and prevents altitude sickness. However, it may cause some side effects such as drowsiness, tingling and numbness in the extremities.

Acentric is a chromosome or a region of a chromosome that does not have a centromeric domain (the region of the chromosome is associated with the kinetochore of the spindle, the so-called “chain” division, as opposed to “chainless” division). It is these sections of chromosomes that are “lost” as a result of mitosis. For some organisms, loss occurs permanently (eg, intestinal epithelial cells of mole rats) or under certain conditions, such as after irradiation. Most normal cells do not have this type of chromosome, which becomes acentric when exposed to radiation. Some acentric chromosomes can have a significant impact on the body's performance, as they contribute to the occurrence of diseases such as anemia, leukemia, myelodysplasia, monosomy and others. In addition, some of them can affect neural activity and lead to the development of various mental disorders. Identification and analysis of acentric chromosomes can provide valuable information about clinical diagnosis and provide new opportunities for better understanding the processes involved in the development of many genetic diseases.
