NIMA-related kinase 1 (NEK1) regulates meiosis I spindle assembly by altering the balance between α-Adducin and Myosin X.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
NIMA-related kinase 1 (NEK1) is a serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase that is highly expressed in mammalian germ cells. Mutations in Nek1 induce anemia, polycystic kidney and infertility.

Characterization of the role of the tumor marker Nup88 in mitosis

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2010
Nuclear pore complexes are massive multiprotein channels responsible for traffic between the nucleus and cytoplasm, and are composed of approximately 30 proteins, termed nucleoporins (Nup).

On-off intermittency of thalamo-cortical oscillations in the electroencephalogram of rats with genetic predisposition to absence epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesBrain research. 1436 (2012) 147-156, 2013
Spike-wave discharges (SWD) are electroencephalographic hallmarks of absence epilepsy. SWD are known to originate from thalamo-cortical neuronal network that normally produce sleep spindle oscillations. Although both sleep spindles and SWD are considered as thalamo-cortical oscillations, functional relationship between them is still uncertain.

Toward a systems-level view of mitotic checkpoints [PDF]

open access: yesProg Biophys Mol Biol. 2015 Mar;117(2-3):217-24, 2016
Reproduction and natural selection are the key elements of life. In order to reproduce, the genetic material must be doubled, separated and placed into two new daughter cells, each containing a complete set of chromosomes and organelles. In mitosis, transition from one process to the next is guided by intricate surveillance mechanisms, known as the ...

An Indole Dearomatization Strategy for the Synthesis of Pseudo‐Natural Products

open access: yesChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
The indole moiety is a privileged fragment that frequently populates existing bioactive compound collections. We describe the development of an indole‐dearomatization sequence and its application for library expansion of a collection of indole‐containing pseudo‐NPs.

The oncogene cyclin D1 promotes bipolar spindle integrity under compressive force.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
The mitotic spindle is the bipolar, microtubule-based structure that segregates chromosomes at each cell division. Aberrant spindles are frequently observed in cancer cells, but how oncogenic transformation affects spindle mechanics and function ...

HN1 expression contributes to mitotic fidelity through Aurora A‐PLK1‐Eg5 axis

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
Abstract Hematological and neurological expressed 1 (HN1) is homolog of Jupiter protein from Drosophila melanogaster where it functions as a microtubule‐associated protein. However, in mammalian cells, HN1 is associated partially with y‐tubulin in centrosomes, Stathmin for stabilizing microtubules, and Cdh1 for regulating Cyclin B1 for cell cycle ...

Aurora-A inactivation causes mitotic spindle pole fragmentation by unbalancing microtubule-generated forces

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2011
Background Aurora-A is an oncogenic kinase playing well-documented roles in mitotic spindle organisation. We previously found that Aurora-A inactivation yields the formation of spindles with fragmented poles that can drive chromosome mis-segregation ...

Regenerating Locus Coeruleus‐Norepinephrine (LC‐NE) Function: A Novel Approach for Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
The regeneration of LC‐NE from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) could significantly mitigate the progression of Neurodegenerative diseases and alleviate associated psychiatric disease symptoms, providing a new approach to the treatment of neurological diseases.

Stabilization of turning processes using spindle feedback with state-dependent delay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We develop a stabilization strategy of turning processes by means of delayed spindle control. We show that turning processes which contain intrinsic state-dependent delays can be stabilized by a spindle control with state-dependent delay, and develop analytical description of the stability region in the parameter space.
