Later in the cell cycle, the G2-M restriction point ensures that there has been accurate genetic replication before the cell actually divides. When cells do detect DNA irregularities, checkpoint activation delays cell cycle progression and triggers DNA repair mechanisms. If the genetic derangement is too severe to be repaired, the cells will undergo apoptosis; alternatively, they may enter a nonreplicative state called senescence—primarily through p53dependent mechanisms (see later). Enforcing the cell cycle checkpoints is the job of CDK inhibitors (CDKIs); they accomplish this by modulating CDK-cyclin complex activity.

These are multipotent cells that can differentiate into a variety of stromal cells including chondrocytes (cartilage), osteocytes (bone), adipocytes (fat), and myocytes (muscle). Because these cells can be expanded to large numbers, and can also generate a locally immunosuppressive microenvironment (thus potentially evading rejection), they may represent a ready means of manufacturing the stromal cellular scaffolding for tissue regeneration. cells to achieve the “stem-ness” of ES cells. , fibroblasts), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) are generated (Fig.

Pathogenesis. Pathogenesis refers to the sequence of cellular, biochemical, and molecular events that follow the exposure of cells or tissues to an injurious agent. The study of pathogenesis remains one of the main domains of pathology. , infection or mutation), it is many steps removed from the expression of the disease.
