The mechanism of spindle assembly
Recent work has provided new insights into the mechanism of spindle assembly. Growing evidence supports a model in which the small GTPase Ran plays a central role in this process. Here, we examine the evidence for the existence of a RanGTP gradient around mitotic chromosomes and some controversial data on the role that chromosomes play in spindle assembly. We review the current knowledge on the...
متن کاملCDK-1 inhibits meiotic spindle shortening and dynein-dependent spindle rotation in C. elegans
In animals, the female meiotic spindle is positioned at the egg cortex in a perpendicular orientation to facilitate the disposal of half of the chromosomes into a polar body. In Caenorhabditis elegans, the metaphase spindle lies parallel to the cortex, dynein is dispersed on the spindle, and the dynein activators ASPM-1 and LIN-5 are concentrated at spindle poles. Anaphase-promoting complex (AP...
متن کاملSeek the Spindle Tumor in Submandibular Space
Introduction: Submandibular region is surgically significant in the head and neck field and a mass in this region may have multiple differential diagnoses. Case Report: An elderly man came with a single 4×2.5 cm swelling in the neck on the right side, just below the lower jaw, since one month. Ultrasound showed an irregular heterogeneous hypoechoic les...
متن کاملSpindle cell hemangioma or hemangioendothelioma: A case report
Spindle cell hemangioma is a benign vascular tumor presenting as multifocal red or bluish nodules on the distal limbs. We present a 57-year-old woman with five years history of multiple, soft, violaceous nodules on her hands. Pathologic study indicated spindle cell hemangioma.
متن کاملAutomated tracking of mitotic spindle pole positions shows that LGN is required for spindle rotation but not orientation maintenance
Spindle orientation defines the plane of cell division and, thereby, the spatial position of all daughter cells. Here, we develop a live cell microscopy-based methodology to extract spindle movements in human epithelial cell lines and study how spindles are brought to a pre-defined orientation. We show that spindles undergo two distinct regimes of movements. Spindles are first actively rotated ...
