Abstract/OtherAbstract:
BACKGROUND: The relationship between the population doubling time and the quantity of silver-stained nucleolar organizer region (AgNOR) interphase proteins was studied in cell culture at three different temperatures used to modulate the cell cycle duration. METHODS: After MIB 1 and AgNOR combined staining, the quantity of AgNOR proteins was measured in cycling cells by image cytometry. RESULTS: Among the several parameters calculated, the AgNOR relative area showed a strong correlation with the changes of the population doubling time induced by different temperatures. CONCLUSIONS: The results support the hypothesis that the cell cycle time and the size of the ribogenesis machinery are coregulated and that measurements of AgNORs can thus be used as a static evaluation of the cell cycle duration in arbitrary units.
