Аннотация:Mitotic catastrophe (MC) is a sequence of events resulting from premature or inappropriate entry of cells into mitosis that can be caused by chemical or physical stresses. There are several observations permitting to define MC as an oncosuppressive mechanism. MC can end up in apoptosis, necrosis or senescence. Here we show that the anticancer drug doxorubicin triggers DNA damage and MC independently of ROS production. In contrast, doxorubicin-induced apoptosis was found to be ROS-dependent. Antioxidants NAC or Trolox suppressed apoptosis, but facilitated MC development. Our data demonstrate that evasion of apoptosis and subsequent stimulation of MC can contribute to tumor cell elimination improving anticancer therapy.
