Nuclear eccentricity can be attributed to the presence of excess axonal cytoskeleton between the nucleus and axon hillock, which causes chromatolysis.

In 1952, research further supported the role of chromatolysis in changing the physiology of cells during cell death processes in embryo development.
13.
Around the same time of Flemming's research, chromatolysis was also studied in the lactating mammary glands and in breast cancer cells.
14.
Within cellular biology, " chromophobic " cells are a classification of cells that do not attract hematoxylin, and is related to chromatolysis.
15.
The authors of these studies, most likely unfamiliar with older publications on chromatolysis, were essentially describing apoptosis as a process identical to chromatolysis.

17.
One hypothesis behind the incidence of chromatolysis following axotomy is that the shortening of the axon prevents the incorporation of the axonal cytoskeleton that undergoes formation in the injured neuron.
18.
At the neuronal cell body, a process called chromatolysis occurs in which the nucleus migrates to the periphery of the cell body and the endoplasmic reticulum breaks up and disperses.
19.
The consistent features of chromatolysis included the condensation of the cytoplasm and chromatin, cell shrinkage, formation of " chromatin balls, " intact normal organelles, and fragmentation of cells observed by the budding of fragments enclosed in the cell membrane.
