Centrosome amplification causes microcephaly
2013
Centrosome amplification is often seen in cancer cells and may cause aneuploidy. Basto and colleagues unexpectedly find that centrosome amplification (induced by Plk4 overexpression) in the mouse central nervous system causes microcephaly due to depletion of the neural stem cell pool through aneuploidy and cell death.
