“…In addition to chromosome-specific variation in aneuploidy frequencies, individual-specific variation in acquired aneuploidy and micronuclei frequencies has been reported [ 35,109,126,128,130,149,150 ], with both genetic (65% of variance) and environmental (35% of variance) factors being shown to influence these frequencies [ 92,119,131 ] (Figure 5). Environmental exposures that have been shown to increase the frequency of micronuclei include, but are not limited to, diet (especially folate deficiency) [ 131,151-153 ], hormone levels [ 131,154 ], tobacco, alcohol and occupational hazards [ 119,131 ].…”
