Short Term Cyclin D1 Overexpression Induces Centrosome Amplification, Mitotic Spindle Abnormalities, and Aneuploidy
28 Oct 2004
Abstract excerpt
In normal cells, cyclin D1 is induced by growth factors and promotes progression through the G(1) phase of the cell cycle. Cyclin D1 is also an oncogene that is thought to act primarily by bypassing the requirement for mitogens during the G(1) phase. Studies of clinical tumors have found that cyclin D1 overexpression is associated with chromosome abnormalities, although a causal effect has not been established in...
