GlossaryCell Cycle Arrest

process that halts cell division to repair damage or stress

Cell cycle arrest is a mechanism that stops the progression of the cell cycle, preventing cells from dividing. This can occur in response to DNA damage, lack of nutrients, or other stress signals, allowing the cell time to repair itself or, if the damage is too severe, to initiate programmed cell death (apoptosis). This process is crucial for maintaining genetic stability and preventing the proliferation of damaged cells, which can lead to diseases like cancer.
