Cell size is controlled to be within a specific range support physiological function. To control their size, cells use diverse mechanisms ranging from 'sizers', in which differences cell are compensated for single division cycle, 'adders', constant amount of growth occurs each cycle. This diversity raises the question why particular would implement one rather than another mechanism? address this question, we performed series simulations evolving networks. The mechanism that evolved was influenced by both cycle structure and selection pressures. Moreover, networks recapitulated known properties naturally occurring If based on G1 an S/G2/M timer, as found budding yeast some human cells, adders likely evolve. But, if phase significantly longer phase, often case mammalian vivo, sizers become more likely. Sizers also evolve when inverted so while performs control, fission S. pombe. For networks, consistently decreases until burst inhibitor drives extended much like green algae Chlamydomonas. That these such self-organized criticality shows how evolution complex systems can drive emergence critical processes.

Cell size and cell count are adaptively regulated intimately linked to growth function. Yet, despite their widespread relevance, the relation between has never been formally examined over whole human body. Here, we compile a comprehensive dataset of all major types, with data drawn from >1,500 published sources. We consider body representative male (70 kg), which allows further estimates female (60 kg) 10-y-old child (32 kg). build hierarchical interface for cellular organization body, giving easy access data, methods, sources (https://humancelltreemap.mis.mpg.de/). In total, estimate total counts ≈36 trillion cells in male, ≈28 female, ≈17 child. These reveal surprising inverse count, implying trade-off these variables, such that within given logarithmic class contribute an equal fraction body's biomass. also find coefficient variation is approximately independent mean size, existence cell-size regulation across types. Our serve establish holistic quantitative framework highlight large-scale patterns biology.

To achieve a stable size distribution over multiple generations, proliferating cells require means of counteracting stochastic noise in the rate growth, time spent various phases cell cycle, and imprecision placement plane division. In most widely accepted model, is thought to be regulated at G1/S transition, such that smaller than critical pause end G1 phase until they have accumulated mass predetermined threshold, which point proceed through rest cycle. However, based solely on specific checkpoint G1/S, cannot readily explain why with deficient control mechanisms are still able maintain very distribution. Furthermore, model would not easily account for variation during subsequent anticipated G1/S. address questions, we applied computationally enhanced quantitative microscopy (ceQPM) populations cultured human lines, enables highly accurate measurement dry individual throughout From these measurements, evaluated factors contribute maintaining homeostasis any Our findings reveal accurately maintained, despite disruptions normal machinery or perturbations growth.

The most fundamental feature of cellular form is size, which sets the scale all cell biological processes. Growth, form, and function are necessarily linked in biology, but we often do not understand underlying molecular mechanisms nor their specific functions. Here, review progress toward determining that regulate size yeast, animals, plants, as well understanding regulation. It has become increasingly clear mechanism regulation deeply intertwined with basic biosynthesis, how biosynthesis can be scaled (or not) proportion to size. Finally, highlight recent findings causally linking aberrant senescence implications for cancer therapies.

Cell proliferation is a central process in tissue development, homeostasis, and disease, yet how regulated the context remains poorly understood. Here, we introduce quantitative framework to elucidate growth dynamics regulate cell proliferation. Using MDCK epithelial monolayers, show that limiting rate of expansion creates confinement suppresses growth; however, this does not directly affect cycle. This leads uncoupling between rates division epithelia and, thereby, reduces volume. Division becomes arrested at minimal volume, which consistent across diverse vivo. nucleus approaches minimum volume capable packaging genome. Loss cyclin D1-dependent cell-volume regulation results an abnormally high nuclear-to-cytoplasmic ratio DNA damage. Overall, demonstrate by interplay regulation.

On molecular level, decision‐making exerted through activation cyclin‐dependent kinases (CDKs). CDKs phosphorylate retinoblastoma (Rb) transcriptional repressor regulate expression genes. Recently, classical view point regulation has been challenged. Here, we review latest findings on CDKs, Rb phosphorylation nature position within cycle.
