Mitotic cell death induction by targeting the mitotic spindle with tubulin-inhibitory indole derivative molecules
Tubulin-targeting molecules are widely used cancer therapeutic agents. They inhibit microtubule-based structures, including the mitotic spindle, ultimately preventing cell division. The final fates of microtubule-inhibited cells are however often heterogeneous and difficult to predict. While recent work has provided insight into the cell response to inhibitors of microtubule dynamics (taxanes),...
متن کاملMechanisms and Molecules of the Mitotic Spindle
In all eukaryotes, morphogenesis of the microtubule cytoskeleton into a bipolar spindle is required for the faithful transmission of the genome to the two daughter cells during division. This process is facilitated by the intrinsic polarity and dynamic properties of microtubules and involves many proteins that modulate microtubule organization and stability. Recent work has begun to uncover the...
متن کاملDynamics of tubulin and calmodulin in the mammalian mitotic spindle.
Microtubules (MTs) have attracted interest and experimental attention in part because they are involved in numerous cellular processes and in part because they are intriguingly dynamic. Many studies with light and electron microscopes have shown that MTs can change their location and extent of polymerization, depending on the physiological state of the cell. Efforts to study this dynamism and t...
متن کاملSystems cell biology of the mitotic spindle
Cell division depends critically on the temporally controlled assembly of mitotic spindles, which are responsible for the distribution of duplicated chromosomes to each of the two daughter cells. To gain insight into the process, Vizeacoumar et al., in this issue (Vizeacoumar et al. 2010. J. Cell Biol. doi:10.1083/jcb.200909013), have combined systems genetics with high-throughput and high-cont...
متن کاملCell division: AAAtacking the mitotic spindle
Cell division requires the assembly of a microtubule-based spindle which captures and segregates sister chromatids. But how is this spindle broken down once chromosome segregation is complete? New evidence implicates a highly conserved AAA-ATPase in spindle disassembly at the end of mitosis.
