Breaching the kinetic barrier to
Abstract
Here we have reviewed the conventional definitions and fundamental
characteristics of the two basic types of stem cells, embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and somatic stem cells (SSCs). By taking into account the often-overlooked asymmetric cell kinetics of SSCs, we consider the evidence that should SSCs retain these growth kinetics in vitro, a natural kinetic barrier to SSC propagation exists. Recent discoveries showing that the tumor suppressor gene
p53 can act as a regulator of asymmetric cell kinetics provide a
target pathway for in vitro SSC propagation strategies.
