Controls on Cell Division
Controls on Cell Division
a.Contact with other cells – cell growth stops
This demonstrates that controls on cell growth and
division can be turned on and off.
b. regulators

Cell Cycle Regulators
Cyclins were discovered during a similar
experiment to this one.
A sample of cytoplasm
is removed from a cell
in mitosis.
The sample is injected
into a second cell in
G2 of interphase.
As a result, the
second
cell enters mitosis.

Cell Cycle Regulators
Internal Regulators
Proteins that respond to events inside the cell
allow the cell cycle to proceed only when certain
processes have happened inside the cell.

Cell Cycle Regulators
External Regulators
outside the cell are called external regulators.
External regulators direct cells to speed up or slow
down the cell cycle.

Uncontrolled Cell Growth
Uncontrolled Cell Growth
Cancer is a disorder in which some of the
body's own cells lose the ability to control
growth.
How are cancer cells different from other
cells?

Uncontrolled Cell Growth
Cancer cells do not respond to the signals
that regulate the growth of most cells.

Uncontrolled Cell Growth
Tumors – masses of cells that can damage the
surrounding tissues.
Metastasis - cells may break loose from tumors and
spread throughout the body, disrupting normal
activities and causing serious medical problems or
even death.

One effect of an internal regulator is that a cell
will not begin mitosis until
a. it becomes too large.
b. the cell’s growth is stimulated.
c. it is in physical contact with other cells.
