- Cytokinesis is the last phase of the cell cycle that results in the generation of daughter cells.
- Cytokinesis is precisely controlled in both time and space to ensure equal distribution of the genetic material between daughter cells.
- Incomplete cytokinesis can be associated with developmental or pathological cell division programs leading to tetraploid progenies.
- Specialized (incomplete) cytokinesis has been reported in hepatocytes during post-natal liver growth.
- Elongation of anaphase cells does not occur.
- No actin cytoskeleton rearrangement takes place.
- The formation of a functional contractile actomyosin ring is not observed.
- Impaired Rho kinase-dependent recruitment of myosin II to the cortex is reported.
