Regulation of cell cycle by the anaphase spindle midzoneMaki Murata-Hori
Department of Physiology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, 377 Plantation St, Worcester, Massachusetts 01605, USA
BMC Cell Biol 5:49. 2004..Besides proteins essential for cytokinesis, there are also components essential for interphase functions, suggesting that the spindle midzone and/or midbody may play a role in regulating the following cell cycle...

Two-way traffic: centrosomes and the cell cycleGreenfield Sluder
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester 01605, USA
Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 6:743-8. 2005..However, the centrosome is more than just a follower of the cell cycle; it can also be essential for the cell to transit G1 and enter S phase. How the centrosome influences G1 progression is a mystery...
The good, the bad and the ugly: the practical consequences of centrosome amplificationGreenfield Sluder
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Biotech 4, 3d floor, 377 Plantation St, Worcester, MA 01605, USA

Centrosome duplication: three kinases come up a winner!E H Hinchcliffe
University of Massachusetts Medical School, Department of Cell Biology, 377 Plantation Street, Worcester, Massachusetts 01605, USA
Curr Biol 11:R698-701. 2001..Despite over one hundred years of research, the duplication of the centrosome is a poorly understood process. Three recent papers--exploring three different kinases--may have provided the answer...
Requirement of a centrosomal activity for cell cycle progression through G1 into S phaseE H Hinchcliffe

Spindle pole fragmentation due to proteasome inhibitionAnka G Ehrhardt
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, 01605, USA
J Cell Physiol 204:808-18. 2005..Together, this leads to the conclusion that the centrosome functions as proteolytic center during mitosis and proteolytic activity at the spindle poles is necessary for maintaining spindle pole integrity...
Cell-cycle progression without an intact microtuble cytoskeletonYumi Uetake
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, Massachusetts 01605, USA
Curr Biol 17:2081-6. 2007....
Requirement of Cdk2-cyclin E activity for repeated centrosome reproduction in Xenopus egg extractsE H Hinchcliffe
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01605, USA
Science 283:851-4. 1999..These results demonstrate that Cdk2-E activity is required for centrosome duplication during S phase and suggest a mechanism that could coordinate centrosome reproduction with cycles of DNA synthesis and mitosis...
Cell cycle progression and de novo centriole assembly after centrosomal removal in untransformed human cellsYumi Uetake
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01605, USA
J Cell Biol 176:173-82. 2007..Third, we provide evidence that centrosome loss is, functionally, a stress that can act additively with other stresses to arrest cells in G1 in a p38-dependent fashion...
MdmX regulates transformation and chromosomal stability in p53-deficient cellsZdenka Matijasevic
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, Massachusetts 01655, USA
Cell Cycle 7:2967-73. 2008..We also discuss the relationship between chromosomal loss, cell proliferation, and the tumorigenic potential of p53-deficient cells lacking MdmX...
Cell cycle progression after cleavage failure: mammalian somatic cells do not possess a "tetraploidy checkpoint"Yumi Uetake
Department of Cell Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Biotech 4, 3rd Floor, 377 Plantation St, Worcester, MA 01605, USA
J Cell Biol 165:609-15. 2004..These observations provide a functional demonstration that the tetraploidy checkpoint does not exist in normal mammalian somatic cells...
p53-independent abrogation of a postmitotic checkpoint contributes to human papillomavirus E6-induced polyploidyYingwang Liu

J Cell Biol 158:1171-81. 2002..Although clouds of PCM consistently form even when microtubules are completely disassembled by nocodazole, the centrioles are not assembled under these conditions...

J Cell Physiol 217:626-31. 2008..This indicates that centrosome duplication during the G1 arrest is limited by a block to reduplication under conditions permissive for duplication. The cytoplasmic conditions of S phase, however, abrogate this block to reduplication...

Wadsworth Center, New York State Department of Health, Albany, NY 12201, USA
J Cell Biol 168:713-22. 2005..By selectively ablating only one centriole at a time, we find that the presence of a single centriole inhibits the assembly of additional centrioles, indicating that centrioles have an activity that suppresses the de novo pathway...
