Aurora kinases are key cell cycle regulators and represent attractive new targets in cancer therapy. In this work we investigated the effect of specific inhibition of Aurora-A and Aurora-B on interphase microtubule dynamics using the GSK6000063A and AZD1152 HQPA compounds respectively. We show that Aurora-A inhibition results in microtubule network disorganization and bundling. Using video microscopy and laser-based photo ablation we demonstrate that Aurora-A inhibition decreases microtubule shrinkage, growth rate, frequency rescue and nucleation. These results open new perspectives on the role of Aurora-A in interphase and might be worth considering in a pharmacological perspective.
