ScienceDaily (Aug. 5, 2012) It’s a longstanding doubt in
biology: How do cells know when to swell by a dungeon cycle? In
elementary organisms such as yeast, cells order once they strech
a specific size. However, last if this binds loyal for mammalian
cells has been difficult, in partial since there has been no
good proceed to magnitude mammalian dungeon expansion over time.
Now, a group of MIT and Harvard Medical School (HMS) researchers
has precisely totalled a expansion rates of singular cells,
permitting them to answer that elemental question. In a Aug. 5
online book of Nature Methods, a researchers news that mammalian
cells order not when they strech a vicious size, though when
their expansion rate hits a specific threshold. This first-ever
regard of this threshold was done probable by a technique grown
by MIT highbrow Scott Manalis and his students in 2007 to
magnitude a mass of singular cells. In a new study, Manalis and
his colleagues were means to lane dungeon expansion and describe
it to a timing of
