The cell division cycle is the generational period of cellular growth and propagation. Cell cycle progression needs to be highly regulated to preserve genomic fidelity while increasing cell number. In multicellular organisms, the cell cycle must also coordinate with cell fate specification during development and tissue homeostasis. Altered cell cycle dynamics play a central role also in a number of pathophysiological processes. Thus, extensive effort has been made to define the biochemical machineries that execute the cell cycle and their regulation, as well as implementing more sensitive and accurate cell cycle measurements. Here, we review the available techniques for cell cycle analysis, revisiting the assumptions behind conventional population‐based measurements and discussing new tools to better address cell cycle heterogeneity in the single‐cell era. We weigh the strengths, weaknesses, and trade‐offs of methods designed to measure temporal aspects of the cell cycle. Finally, we discuss emerging techniques for capturing cell cycle speed at single‐cell resolution in live animals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
