In a number of tissues It has been found that mitotic activity is controlled by specific mitotic inhibitors, called chalones. It is now shown that in four malignant tumours (epidermal carcinoma ...
This valuable study uses robust time-dependent microscopy assays to show that during HIV-1 infection, the viral accessory protein Vif causes cell cycle arrest during metaphase and not G2/M as ...
These drugs block mitosis, the process that cells use to divide and replicate. “By stopping this process, mitotic inhibitors prevent cancer cells from multiplying,” says Dr Shaikh. This can be ...
Changes in either chromosome structure or number can occur during cell division. Each human has 46 chromosomes, 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (XX: female or XY: male). During ...
