Abstract
Errors in chromosome segregation during cell division lead to changes in nuclear features. A study now shows that a mechanosensitive nuclear checkpoint activates the tumour suppressor p53 to halt the proliferation of aneuploid cells. These findings provide mechanistic insights to explore in both ageing and cancer pathologies.
