The centrosome and cell proliferation [PDF]
Centrosomes are frequently amplified in cancer cells. Increased numbers of centrosomes can give rise to multipolar spindles in mitosis, and thereby lead to the formation of aneuploid daughter cells. However, whether centrosome amplification is a cause or

Site-specific phosphorylation of ZYG-1 regulates ZYG-1 stability and centrosome number
Summary: Spindle bipolarity is critical for genomic integrity. As centrosome number often dictates bipolarity, tight control of centrosome assembly is vital for faithful cell division.

Primary cilia are key regulators of embryo development and tissue homeostasis. However, their mechanisms and functions, particularly in the context of human cells, are still unclear.

A catalog of numerical centrosome defects in epithelial ovarian cancers
Centrosome amplification, the presence of more than two centrosomes in a cell is a common feature of most human cancer cell lines. However, little is known about centrosome numbers in human cancers and whether amplification or other numerical aberrations

Centrosome-kinase fusions promote oncogenic signaling and disrupt centrosome function in myeloproliferative neoplasms. [PDF]
Chromosomal translocations observed in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) frequently fuse genes that encode centrosome proteins and tyrosine kinases. This causes constitutive activation of the kinase resulting in aberrant, proliferative signaling.

Rab11 endosomes and Pericentrin coordinate centrosome movement during pre-abscission in vivo
Cell division completes when the two daughter cells move their oldest centrosome towards the cytokinetic bridge, which is then cleaved during abscission.

Summary: Centrosomal protein 120 (CEP120) is a 120 kDa centrosome protein that plays an important role in centrosome replication. Overexpression of CEP120 can lead to centrosome duplicate abnormality, which is closely associated with tumorigenesis and ...

Centrosome-phagy: implications for human diseases
Autophagy is a prominent mechanism to preserve homeostasis and the response to intracellular or extracellular stress. Autophagic degradation can be selectively targeted to dysfunctional subcellular compartments.

The Golgi complex of mammalian cells is organized in a ribbon-like structure often closely associated with the centrosome during interphase. Conversely, the Golgi complex assumes a fragmented and dispersed configuration away from the centrosome during ...

Polo-like kinase 4 controls centriole duplication but does not directly regulate cytokinesis. [PDF]
Centrioles organize the centrosome, and accurate control of their number is critical for the maintenance of genomic integrity. Centrioles duplicate once per cell cycle, and duplication is coordinated by Polo-like kinase 4 (Plk4).
