Modelling the controls of the eukaryotic cell cycle.

چکیده
The eukaryotic cell-division cycle is regulated by three modules that control G(1)/S, G(2)/M and meta/anaphase transitions. By using mathematical modelling, we show the dynamic characteristics of these individual modules and we also assemble them together into a comprehensive model of the eukaryotic cell-division cycle. With this comprehensive model, we also discuss the mechanisms by which different checkpoint pathways stabilize different cell-cycle states and inhibit the transitions that drive cell-cycle progression.

Cell Timer/Cell Clock
Like the biological clock in the body, replication of each cell type (even different cells of the same organism) follows a timing program. Abnormal function of this timer could be an alarm for a disease like cancer. DNA replication starts from a specific point on the chromosome that is called the origin of replication. In contrast to prokaryotes in which DNA replication starts from a single ...
متن کاملImpact of Prolonged Fraction Delivery Time Modelling Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy with High Dose Hypofractionation on the Killing of Cultured ACHN Renal Cell Carcinoma Cell Line
Introduction: Stereotactic body radiotherapy delivers hypofractionated irradiation with high dose per fraction through complex treatment techniques. The increased complexity leads to longer dose delivery times for each fraction. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of prolonged fraction delivery time with high-dose hypofractionation on the killing of cultured ACHN cells.Method...
متن کاملEffects of Over-Expression of LOC92912 Gene on Cell Cycle Progression
Background: We had previously identified the genes involved in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck using differential display and DNA microarray techniques. We also reported the first analytical study on a novel human gene called LOC92912, which was identified by differential display as a gene up-regulated in such carcinomas. LOC92912, which is a putative member of the E2 ubiquitin con...
متن کاملA survey on random walk-based stochastic modeling in eukaryotic cell migration with emphasis on its application in cancer
Impairments in cell migration processes may cause various diseases, among which cancer cell metastasis, tumor angiogenesis, and the disability of immune cells to infiltrate into tumors are prominent ones. Mathematical modeling has been widely used to analyze the cell migration process. Cell migration is a complicated process and requires statistical methods such as random walk for proper analys...
