Cyclins: Growing pains for Drosophila
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tradition holds that cyclin D is required for the initiation of cell division; recent studies in Drosophila, however, suggest that cyclin D has a separate function in governing growth.

Restless legs syndrome (Willis-Ekbom disease) and growing pains: are they the same thing? A side-by-side comparison of the diagnostic criteria for both and recommendations for future research.
There has been no previous side-by-side comparison of the diagnostic criteria for restless legs syndrome (RLS) (Willis-Ekbom disease) and growing pains. In our review, we explore this comparison emphasizing overlaps and disconnects, summarize recent literature exploring the relationship between the 2 entities, and make suggestions for future research. There is considerable overlap in the diagno...

متن کاملThe Division of Drosophila Germline Stem Cells and Their Precursors Requires a Specific Cyclin
A fundamental yet essentially unexplored question in stem cell biology is whether the stem cell cycle has specific features. Three B-cyclins in Drosophila, Cyclins (Cyc) A, B, and B3, associate with CDK1 and play partially redundant roles in embryogenic mitosis . Here, we show that the division of Drosophila GSCs and their precursors, the primordial germ cells (PGCs), specifically requires CycB...
