A comprehensive model for the proliferation–quiescence decision in response to endogenous DNA damage in human cells

Human cells that suffer mild DNA damage can enter a reversible state of growth arrest known as quiescence. This decision to temporarily exit the cell cycle is essential to prevent the propagation of mutations, and most cancer cells harbor defects in the underlying control system. Here we present a m...
