Effects of the aurora kinase inhibitors AZD1152-HQPA and ZM447439 on growth arrest and polyploidy in acute myeloid leukemia cell lines and primary blasts
Background Aurora kinases play an essential role in the orchestration of chromosome separation and cytokinesis during mitosis.Small-molecule inhibition of the aurora kinases has been shown to result in inhibition of cell division, phosphorylation of histone H3 and the induction of apoptosis in a number of color touch 7/97 cell systems.These charact
