Abstract
Cyclin and gap junction proteins are intimately involved in cell regulation and communication. In fact, both gene families are dramatically modulated during the synchronized cell cycles induced by liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy. This chapter begins with an introduction to the cyclin gene family, and continues with a discussion of the various cyclin functions in cellular control, with emphasis on eukaryotic cells and in particular the mammalian liver. Finally, we discuss gap junction proteins and their roles in liver growth and repair.
