SV-2: P1 oncogenerative cells in parturient events from A Distinct Oncogenerative Multinucleated Cancer Cell Serves as a Source of Stemness and Tumor Heterogeneity

Oncogenerative P1 cells are giant cells with a syncytium-like morphology. This distinctive cell type complete cell life cycles which resemble lysogenic viral cycles. The mode of cellularization of the intracytoplasmically generated G1 cells (generation 1) is unique and takes place in different ways: a) in a lateral form which means that the G1 cells abandon the maternal P1 cells by trans cytoplasmic budding, b) through crevices formed with the participation of mitochondria around G1s until expulsion. After cellularization, the resulted aperture is filled by fusogenic HERV proteins, c) using a kind of funiculus or bridge connected to P1 maternal cells. An interesting process conducted by P1 cells is the horizontal transmission of G1 inoculating these cells into proximal receptor cells.
