Pulchelloid A, a sesquiterpene lactone from the Canadian prairie plant Gaillardia aristata inhibits mitosis in human cells

Pierre Gönczy, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Tatiana Favez

Background The Canadian prairie ecosystem presents a rich source of natural products from plants that are subjected to herbivory by grazing mammals. This type of ecological competition may contribute to the production of natural products of interest in cel ...

Computer simulations reveal mechanisms that organize nuclear dynein forces to separate centrosomes

Pierre Gönczy, Alessandro De Simone

Centrosome separation along the surface of the nucleus at the onset of mitosis is critical for bipolar spindle assembly. Dynein anchored on the nuclear envelope is known to be important for centrosome separation, but it is unclear how nuclear dynein forces ...

Combination of ruthenium(II)-arene complex [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene)Cl-2(pta)] (RAPTA-C) and the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor erlotinib results in efficient angiostatic and antitumor activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Ume-Gulsoom Abdul, Patrick Meraldi

Ruthenium-based compounds show strong potential as anti-cancer drugs and are being investigated as alternatives to other well-established metal-based chemotherapeutics. The organometallic compound [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene) Cl-2(pta)], where pta = 1,3,5-triaza-7 ...

Discovery of a Selective Aurora A Kinase Inhibitor by Virtual Screening

Pierre Gönczy, Maria Josefina Marcaida Lopez, Sachin Kotak, Jean-Louis Reymond

Here we report the discovery of a selective inhibitor of Aurora A, a key regulator of cell division and potential anticancer target. We used the atom category extended ligand overlap score (xLOS), a 3D ligand-based virtual screening method recently develop ...

Dynein Transmits Polarized Actomyosin Cortical Flows to Promote Centrosome Separation

Pierre Gönczy, Alessandro De Simone

The two centrosomes present at the onset of mitosis must separate in a timely and accurate fashion to ensure proper bipolar spindle assembly. The minus-end-directed motor dynein plays a pivotal role in centrosome separation, but the underlying mechanisms r ...

Cortical neurons gradually attain a post-mitotic state

Johannes Gräff

Once generated, neurons are thought to permanently exit the cell cycle and become irreversibly differentiated. However, neither the precise point at which this post-mitotic state is attained nor the extent of its irreversibility is clearly defined. Here we ...

Purification of centrosomes from mammalian cell lines

Paul Guichard

Centrosomes act as the main microtubule-organizing centre of animal cells and play critical roles in the cell, such as mitotic spindle organization, cell polarity, and motility. They are composed of two barrel-shaped structures, the centrioles, surrounded ...

Analysis of S. pombe SIN protein association to the SPB reveals two genetically separable states of the SIN

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage, Jacques Rougemont, Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp, Daniel Andreas Schmitter, Anastasia Chasapi, Ioannis Xenarios

The Schizosaccharomyces pombe septation initiation network (SIN) regulates cytokinesis, and asymmetric association of SIN proteins with the mitotic spindle pole bodies (SPBs) is important for its regulation. Here, we have used semi-automated image analysis ...
