title: On the possible mechanism of cell cycle synchronization.
abstract: The influence of exchanges of lipids and antioxidants (AO) between the cells on the cell proliferation is studied in the frame of the membrane model of the cell cycle. It is shown theoretically that the easy-oxidative lipids exchange favours the synchronization of cell division, while the AO exchange leads to desynchronization. The analytical consideration and some numerical estimations are carried out. The qualitative consequences accessible to experimental verification are discussed.
