Cell Death and Differentiation (2008) 15, 1153–1162 & 2008 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved 1350-9047/08 $30.00 www.nature.com/cdd Review Death through a tragedy: mitotic catastrophe H Vakifahmetoglu1, M Olsson1 and B Zhivotovsky*,1 Mitotic catastrophe (MC) has long been considered as a mode of cell death that results from premature or inappropriate entry of cells into mitosis and can be caused by chemical or physical stresses. Whereas it initially was depicted as the main form of cell death induced by ionizing radiation, it is today known to be triggered also by treatment with agents influencing the stability of microtubule, various anticancer drugs and mitotic failure caused by defective cell cycle checkpoints. Although various descriptions explaining MC exist, there is still no general accepted definition of this phenomenon. Here, we present evidences indicating that death-associated MC is not a separate mode of cell death, rather a process (‘prestage’) preceding cell death, which can occur through necrosis or apoptosis. The final outcome of MC depends on the molecular profile of the cell.

  • Mitosis Vs. Meiosis

    Mitosis Vs. Meiosis

    Mitosis vs. Meiosis In order for organisms to continue growing and/or replace cells that are dead or beyond repair, cells must replicate, or make identical copies of themselves. In order to do this and maintain the proper number of chromosomes, the cells of eukaryotes must undergo mitosis to divide up their DNA. The dividing of the DNA ensures that both the “old” cell (parent cell) and the “new” cells (daughter cells) have the same genetic makeup and both will be diploid, or containing the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. For reproduction of an organism to occur, the original parent cell will undergo Meiosis to create 4 new daughter cells with a slightly different genetic makeup in order to ensure genetic diversity when fertilization occurs. The four daughter cells will be haploid, or containing half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. The difference between the two processes is that mitosis occurs in non-reproductive cells, or somatic cells, and meiosis occurs in the cells that participate in sexual reproduction, or germ cells. The Somatic Cell Cycle (Mitosis) The somatic cell cycle consists of 3 phases: interphase, m phase, and cytokinesis. 1. Interphase: Interphase is considered the non-dividing phase of the cell cycle. It is not a part of the actual process of mitosis, but it readies the cell for mitosis. It is made up of 3 sub-phases: • G1 Phase: In G1, the cell is growing. In most organisms, the majority of the cell’s life span is spent in G1. • S Phase: In each human somatic cell, there are 23 pairs of chromosomes; one chromosome comes from the mother and one comes from the father.
  • The Involvement of Ubiquitination Machinery in Cell Cycle Regulation and Cancer Progression

    The Involvement of Ubiquitination Machinery in Cell Cycle Regulation and Cancer Progression

    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review The Involvement of Ubiquitination Machinery in Cell Cycle Regulation and Cancer Progression Tingting Zou and Zhenghong Lin * School of Life Sciences, Chongqing University, Chongqing 401331, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The cell cycle is a collection of events by which cellular components such as genetic materials and cytoplasmic components are accurately divided into two daughter cells. The cell cycle transition is primarily driven by the activation of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), which activities are regulated by the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis of key regulators such as cyclins, CDK inhibitors (CKIs), other kinases and phosphatases. Thus, the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of the cell cycle progression via recognition, interaction, and ubiquitination or deubiquitination of key proteins. The illegitimate degradation of tumor suppressor or abnormally high accumulation of oncoproteins often results in deregulation of cell proliferation, genomic instability, and cancer occurrence. In this review, we demonstrate the diversity and complexity of the regulation of UPS machinery of the cell cycle. A profound understanding of the ubiquitination machinery will provide new insights into the regulation of the cell cycle transition, cancer treatment, and the development of anti-cancer drugs.

    Cell Division- Ch 5

    Cell Division- Mitosis and Meiosis When do cells divide? Cell size . One of most important factors affecting size of the cell is size of cell membrane . Cell must remain relatively small to survive (why?) – Cell membrane has to be big enough to take in nutrients and eliminate wastes – As cells get bigger, the volume increases faster than the surface area – Small cells have a larger surface area to volume ratio than larger cells to help with nutrient intake and waste elimination . When a cell reaches its max size, the nucleus starts cell division: called MITOSIS or MEIOSIS Mitosis . General Information – Occurs in somatic (body) cells ONLY!! – Nickname: called “normal” cell division – Produces somatic cells only . Background Info – Starts with somatic cell in DIPLOID (2n) state . Cell contains homologous chromosomes- chromosomes that control the same traits but not necessarily in the same way . 1 set from mom and 1 set from dad – Ends in diploid (2n) state as SOMATIC cells – Goes through one set of divisions – Start with 1 cell and end with 2 cells Mitosis (cont.) . Accounts for three essential life processes – Growth . Result of cell producing new cells . Develop specialized shapes/functions in a process called differentiation . Rate of cell division controlled by GH (Growth Hormone) which is produced in the pituitary gland . Ex. Nerve cell, intestinal cell, etc. – Repair . Cell regenerates at the site of injury . Ex. Skin (replaced every 28 days), blood vessels, bone Mitosis (cont.) – Reproduction . Asexual – Offspring produced by only one parent – Produce offspring that are genetically identical – MITOSIS – Ex.

  • 4 Mitotic Catastrophe

    4 Mitotic Catastrophe

    4 Mitotic Catastrophe Fiorenza Ianzini, FI, PhD, and Michael A. Mackey, MAM, PhD Summary Mitotic catastrophe (MC) is the result of premature or inappropriate entry of cells into mitosis, usually occurring because of chemical or physical stresses. MC is characterized by changes in nuclear morphology and the eventual appearance of polyploid cell progeny in affected cell populations, is markedly enhanced in cells lacking p53 function, and is the result of overaccumulation of cyclin B1 in cells delayed late in the cell cycle by the inducing agent. Thus, MC is considered to be the predominant mechanism underlying mitotic-linked cell death. Along with characteristic features associated with MC, a delayed DNA damage phenotype has been noted in these populations, suggesting a potential role for MC in mutagenesis and the acquisition of genomic instability. Although generally lethal, some cells can survive MC through mechanisms that are incompletely understood. Cytological features associated with meiotic cell division have been noted in polyploid cell populations produced through MC, a finding that might be particularly relevant in the understanding of tumor progression and that might provide a novel mechanism for the generation of quasi-diploid progeny from MC-induced polyploid cell populations. This review summarizes the literature pertaining to MC and describes current lines of research in this interesting research area. Key Words: Mitotic catastrophe; cell cycle regulation; cyclin B1; endopoly- ploid cells; mitosis; meiosis; carcinogenesis; tumor progression; delayed DNA damage; SPCC. 1. MOLECULAR MECHANISMS UNDERLYING MITOTIC CATASTROPHE 1.1. Mitotic Catastrophe is the Result of Premature Entry into Mitosis Following Abrogation of G2/M Checkpoint Function Exposure of some cell types to a broad class of agents can lead to a loss of regulation of cell division, such that cells enter into a premature mitosis, an event that culminates in a phenomenon called mitotic catastrophe (MC).

    Cell Life Cycle and Reproduction the Cell Cycle (Cell-Division Cycle), Is a Series of Events That Take Place in a Cell Leading to Its Division and Duplication

    Cell Life Cycle and Reproduction The cell cycle (cell-division cycle), is a series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication. The main phases of the cell cycle are interphase, nuclear division, and cytokinesis. Cell division produces two daughter cells. In cells without a nucleus (prokaryotic), the cell cycle occurs via binary fission. Interphase Gap1(G1)- Cells increase in size. The G1checkpointcontrol mechanism ensures that everything is ready for DNA synthesis. Synthesis(S)- DNA replication occurs during this phase. DNA Replication The process in which DNA makes a duplicate copy of itself. Semiconservative Replication The process in which the DNA molecule uncoils and separates into two strands. Each original strand becomes a template on which a new strand is constructed, resulting in two DNA molecules identical to the original DNA molecule. Gap 2(G2)- The cell continues to grow. The G2checkpointcontrol mechanism ensures that everything is ready to enter the M (mitosis) phase and divide. Mitotic(M) refers to the division of the nucleus. Cell growth stops at this stage and cellular energy is focused on the orderly division into daughter cells. A checkpoint in the middle of mitosis (Metaphase Checkpoint) ensures that the cell is ready to complete cell division. The final event is cytokinesis, in which the cytoplasm divides and the single parent cell splits into two daughter cells. Reproduction Cellular reproduction is a process by which cells duplicate their contents and then divide to yield multiple cells with similar, if not duplicate, contents. Mitosis Mitosis- nuclear division resulting in the production of two somatic cells having the same genetic complement (genetically identical) as the original cell.
