The molecular analysis of mammalian cellular proliferation in vivo is limited in most organ systems by the low turnover and/or the asynchronous nature of cell cycle progression. A notable exception is the partial hepatectomy model, in which quiescent hepatocytes re-enter the cell cycle and progress in a synchronous fashion. Here we have exploited this model to identify regulatory networks operative in the mammalian cell cycle. We performed microarray-based expression profiling on livers 0-40 h post-hepatectomy corresponding to G(0), G(1), and S phases. Differentially expressed genes were identified using the statistical analysis program PaGE ((P) under bar(a) under bar tterns from (G) under bar ene (E) under bar xpression), which was highly accurate as confirmed by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR of randomly selected targets. A shift in the transcriptional program from genes involved in lipid and hormone biosynthesis in the quiescent liver to those contributing to cytoskeleton assembly and DNA synthesis in the proliferating liver was demonstrated by biological theme analysis. In a novel approach, we employed computational pathway analysis tools to identify specific regulatory networks operative at various stages of the cell cycle. This allowed us to identify a large cluster of genes controlling mitotic spindle assembly and checkpoint control at the 40-h time point as regulated at the mRNA level in vivo.
