In cell division, the cell that is dividing is called the parent cell. The parent cell divides into two daughter cells. The process then repeats in what is called the cell cycle. Cells regulate their division by communicating with each other using chemical signals from special proteins called cyclins.
When a stem cell divides, it can either produce differentiated cells or self-renew to produce more stem cells. Because stem cells are thought to be the cells of origin for many types of cancer, understanding what controls this decision has become a central question in stem-cell and cancer research.
