Our paper "Control of cell proliferation by memories of mitosis" is out @ScienceMagazine. We show that cells can detect and memorize defects in mitosis to eliminate potentially damaged cells. @OISTedu @Meitinger @oegemadesai_lab science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Control of cell proliferation by memories of mitosis

A study reveals how cells measure time spent in mitosis and relay that information to daughter cells.

🔬Groundbreaking research by OIST Cell Proliferation and Gene Editing Unit and collaborators show how cells become ultimate protectors against cancer!🧬Did you know cells sense defects by measuring the duration of #mitosis? @MeitingerOhta @oegemadesai_lab ow.ly/Gknt50R4KZk

Because you can’t fix what you don’t understand, @MeitingerOhta's unit studies how dividing cells stay healthy, what happens if those mechanisms fail and searches for new treatment targets to combat #cancer. #NewFacultyOfOIST @Meitinger @Midori_RuruOta ⬇️ oist.jp/news-center/news/202…

We are happy to present the official website of the DKW 2024 meeting - please spread the word and submit your abstracts! We have 20 slots for selected talks (prioritized for early career researchers). We hope to see many of you in Caux next year meetings.embo.org/event/24-k…

Dynamic kinetochore

The kinetochore is a dynamic proteinaceous structure that connects centromeric chromatin to spindle microtubules and is of fundamental importance for the segregation of chromosomes during mitosis and…

Check out our new study in @ScienceMagazine, where we take on a 100-year-old debate: what’s the role of aneuploidy in cancer? We discovered that genetically removing extra chromosomes blocks cancer growth - a phenomenon we call “aneuploidy addiction”. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Oncogene-like addiction to aneuploidy in human cancers

Specific aneuploidies benefit cancer cells and may be sensitive to treatment
