Cell growth dilutes the cell cycle inhibitor Rb to trigger cell division
2018-11-14
Abstract excerpt
Cell size is fundamental to function in different cell types across the human body because it sets the scale of organelle structures, biosynthesis, and surface transport 1,2 . Tiny erythrocytes squeeze through capillaries to transport oxygen, while the million-fold larger oocyte divides without growth to form the ~100 cell pre-implantation embryo. Despite the vast size range across cell types, cells of a given ty...
