โฆ Synopsis
The purpose of this short review is to provide an overview of mammalian somatic cell cycle events and their controls. Cell cycle-related studies have been under way for only 5% of this millennium, yet since then nearly 20,000 references have appeared. This vast literature cannot be detailed here, nor can fundamental information obtained with other organisms such as yeast and Xenopus, or topics such as the abbreviated cell cycle in early embryonic cells. (General references include Murray and Hunt [1993] The cell cycle, an introduction.

There are two reasons why cell-cycle control is important for understanding cancer. The first and obvious one is that cancer involves unrestrained cell proliferation resulting in cells losing control and being driven through the cell cycle. The second reason is that cell-cycle control leads to an or
