  • Title: The priming/completion paradigm to explain growth factor-dependent cell cycle progression.
    Author: Kazlauskas A.
    Journal: Growth Factors; 2005 Sep; 23(3):203-10. PubMed ID: 16243712.
    Abstract:
    Approximately 50 years ago, researchers established conditions to maintain cells in tissue culture: Likely et al. (1952), Scherer et al. (1953), Eagle (1955). This simple model system set the stage for discovery of growth factors and the signaling systems that they engage to mediate cellular responses such as proliferation. The purpose of this review is to present the original view of how growth factors regulate cell cycle progression and an updated (priming/completion) version of how growth factors advance resting cells through the cell cycle.
