Control of cell-type generation mediated by growth factor
A working hypothesis is presented, suggesting that the binary control of cell-type generation by external signals operates in an indirect way: growth factor as the signal affects the mode of cell-cycle progression of precursor cells. The mode of cell-cycle progression that is realised decides the pa...

| Summary: | A working hypothesis is presented, suggesting that the binary control of cell-type generation by external signals operates in an indirect way: growth factor as the signal affects the mode of cell-cycle progression of precursor cells. The mode of cell-cycle progression that is realised decides the pathway of cell-type generation. |
