Centrosome amplification drives chromosomal instability in breast tumor development. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 99:2002;1978-1983 This study examines the relationship between centrosome defects and the progression of human breast tumors. Centrosome number and size show a positive, linear correlation with aneuploidy and chromosomal instability and increases in microtubule nucleation are correlated with loss of tissue differentiation.

Examination of centrosome defects in pre-invasive carcinomas reveals that centrosome amplification is coincident with genomic instability and cytologic abnormalities at the earliest detectable stages of human cancers.
