I am not 100% sure but i am quite confident that it is the cell that lets humans have empathy, self awareness and forgiveness.
In 2006 it was found that whales and dolphins have spindle cells. Another animal that has spindle cells is apes and gorillas.
New Answer.
Spindle cells are only found in cancerous tumors. They have a very unique appearance and are characteristic of a specific type of dysplasia which is very rare in caner patients.
Spindle cells have an atypical spindle shape, have elongated nuclei and ropes of collagen. They arise from abnormal mitosis, cell division, that leads to the development of the cancerous tumor.
Spindle cell tumors start in the skins epithelial cells or lining of the internal organs. As the cancer progresses it can be spread to other areas.
(The above answer relates to the spindle neurons.)
Spindle fibers. These structures form the mitotic spindle and play a crucial role in separating chromosomes during cell division.
Animal cells have spindle fibers in them.
Spindle fibers. They help separate chromosomes during cell division by attaching to the centromeres of each chromosome and pulling them to opposite poles of the cell.
What is a spindle cell tumor in the stomach?
The centrosome is the organelle that anchors the spindle fibers in the cell during cell division. It helps to organize and regulate the movement of the chromosomes.
A spindle forms during cell division in a haploid cell during the process of meiosis. The spindle is crucial for the separation of homologous chromosomes and ensuring that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes.

Spindle Cell Sarcoma (hemangiopericytoma) Hemangiopericytoma a tumor composed of spindle cells with a rich vascular network, which apparently arises from pericytes. Above retrieved from Answers.com Viper1
If there were no spindle checkpoints then the chromosomes wouldn't be in the right position for the reproduction of the cell.
no
spindle apparatus
The phase that has a spindle forming in a haploid cell is meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces reproductive cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. During meiosis, a spindle apparatus helps separate the chromosomes into daughter cells.
