Chromosome integrity checkpoints in stem and progenitor cells: transitions upon differentiation, pathogenesis, and aging
31 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
Loss of chromosome integrity is a major contributor to cancer. Checkpoints within the cell division cycle that facilitate the accuracy and outcome of chromosome segregation are thus critical pathways for preserving chromosome integrity and preventing chromosomal instability. The spindle assembly checkpoint, the decatenation checkpoint and the post-mitotic tetraploidy checkpoint ensure the appropriate...
