Spindle checkpoint function is required for mitotic catastrophe induced by DNA-damaging agents

Mitotic catastrophe is an important mechanism for the induction of cell death in cancer cells by antineoplastic agents that damage DNA. This process is facilitated by defects in the G 1 and G 2 checkpoints of the cell cycle that are apparent in most cancer cells and which allow the cells to enter mi...
