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

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.

Control of centrin stability by Aurora A. [PDF]
Aurora A is an oncogenic serine/threonine kinase which can cause cell transformation and centrosome amplification when over-expressed. Human breast tumors show excess Aurora A and phospho-centrin in amplified centrosomes.

The fate of extra centrosomes in newly formed tetraploid cells: should I stay, or should I go?
An increase in centrosome number is commonly observed in cancer cells, but the role centrosome amplification plays along with how and when it occurs during cancer development is unclear. One mechanism for generating cancer cells with extra centrosomes is

Because centrosome amplification generates aneuploidy and since centrosome amplification is ubiquitous in human tumors, a strong case is made for centrosome amplification being a major force in tumor biogenesis.

RABL6A, a novel RAB-like protein, controls centrosome amplification and chromosome instability in primary fibroblasts. [PDF]
RABL6A (RAB-like 6 isoform A) is a novel protein that was originally identified based on its association with the Alternative Reading Frame (ARF) tumor suppressor.

Background/Aims: Type 2 diabetes is associated with oxidative stress and DNA damage which can cause centrosome amplification. Thus, the study investigated centrosome amplification in type 2 diabetes and the underlying mechanisms.

Cigarette smoke condensate induces centrosome clustering in normal lung epithelial cells
Background Unlike normal cells, cancer cells frequently have multiple centrosomes that can cluster to form bipolar mitotic spindles and allow for successful cell division.

The centrosome and cell proliferation
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
