Abstract:
It has been considered that neurons were in a state of terminal differentiation after postmitosis. Recently, however, many data have suggested that the mature neurons may reentry into the cell cycle. Nevertheless, the mechanism of neuronal cell cycle activation remains unclear. The mechanism of cell cycle is an important part in coping with DNA damage in neurons, and the reentry into the cell cycle is to repair the DNA damage. When the damage is too severe to be repaired, it may induce apoptosis.
