The mechanistic significance of centrosome aberrations for the induction of chromosomal instability has been a matter of intensive debate as well. On the one hand, it has been proposed that abnormal ...
Centrosomes, which are composed of two centrioles and pericentriolar material, serve as the main microtubule-organizing centre in animal cells. They duplicate once per cell cycle so that each daughter ...
Cells begin to accumulate centrosomes-;organelles that play a vital role during cell division-;before they transform into cancer cells, according to a new study of patients with Barrett's esophagus ...
In a new study, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute scientists disprove a century-old theory about why cancer cells often have too many or too few chromosomes, and show that the actual reason may hold the ...
The reproduction, or duplication, of the centrosome is an important event in a cell's preparation for mitosis. We sought to determine if centrosome reproduction is regulated by the synthesis and ...
The centrosome is the organelle responsible for the organization of the cytoskeleton during cell division, an essential function in organisms from yeast to humans. Until now, scientists assumed that ...
Intra-patient genomic heterogeneity of single circulating tumor cells (CTCs) associated to phenotypic CTC heterogeneity in metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). SOD2 rs4880 CT/CC ...
In humans and other mammals, cardiac muscle cells stop replicating soon after birth, unlike the cardiac muscle cells in, say, zebrafish and amphibians. What do zebrafish and amphibian cardiomyocytes ...
When cells extend, move, or divide, a tiny organelle called the centrosome provides a cytoskeletal anchor and regulatory hub. It was long held that centrosomes are similar in composition across cells.
Unseen and ongoing, thousands of times every second: to keep a complex organism like humans alive, an immense number of new cells must be continuously produced. Up close, each of these cell divisions ...
Researchers have identified a novel protein that plays a crucial role in the formation of the mitotic spindle, which is essential for correct segregation of a full set of chromosomes to each daughter ...
The centrosome is the organelle responsible for the organization of the cytoskeleton during cell division, an essential function in organisms from yeast to humans. Until now, scientists assumed that ...
