Caption

An overview of multiple confined cancer cells, showing mitochondria (in magenta) and the nucleus (in cyan). Cells where you can see the accumulation of mitochondria within the nucleus, show cells with the NAM phenomenon. In HeLa cells (shown in this picture) the penetrance of the phenotype in vitro was 83.6%
