Quo Vadis Cell Growth and Division?
In animal cells and models, the control of cell growth and division is essential for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and for cell proliferation. Defects in these pathways can lead to abnormal cell proliferation and eventually development of cancer. Although cell growth and cell division are two functionally distinct processes, they are crucial for generating progeny of all cells and are...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Growth, Cell Division and Cell Size
The determination of cell size in multicellular organisms is intimately linked to the relationship between growth and cell division. The term growth has been widely used in biology to describe processes including progression through a developmental programme, cell differentiation, cell division and increase in mass. Here, we use the term growth solely to indicate mass increase. Growing tissues ...
متن کاملThe Mechanism of Cell-division Iii. the Relationship between Cell-division and Growth in Segmenting Eggs
THE fact that dividing cells are usually only found in actively growing tissues does not necessarily prove that growth and cell-division are two closely correlated phenomena. Growth may be defined as an increase in the amount of organised material which is present in the cell and which is essentially part of the living machine. Cell-division, on the other hand, only implies the cleavage of the ...
متن کاملBacterial Actin and Tubulin Homologs in Cell Growth and Division
In contrast to the elaborate cytoskeletal machines harbored by eukaryotic cells, such as mitotic spindles, cytoskeletal structures detectable by typical negative stain electron microscopy are generally absent from bacterial cells. As a result, for decades it was thought that bacteria lacked cytoskeletal machines. Revolutions in genomics and fluorescence microscopy have confirmed the existence n...
