The proliferation of cells and growth of individuals are closely related to mitosis and relies on functionally precise mitosis to correctly transmit genetic information to daughter cells. Mitotic cell death occurs when cells are unable to complete mitosis due to extensive DNA damages, disruption of the mitotic machineries, and/or failure of mitotic checkpoints, thereby reducing the risk of genomic abnormalities in daughter cells and avoiding disease development. However, many cancer cells displaying a high degree of centrosome amplification and/or spindle defects are vulnerable to generate mitotic aberrations. To survive, these cells acquire strategies to attenuate the induction of mitotic cell death, allowing the development of advanced malignancy, recurrence and drug resistance. Thus, modulation of mitotic cell death controls cancer development and is an attractive intervention strategy for cancer therapy.

By using cell biology methods in cultured cell models, we systematically dissect how cells respond to mitotic failures and identify and characterize the cellular and molecular mechanisms for controlling mitotic cell death and survival. Through these studies, we can further understand the key mechanism(s) in cancer development and identify potential therapeutic targets for cancer treatment.
