Biological processes are dynamic. As a result, temporal analyses are necessary to fully understand the complex interactions that occurs within these systems. One example of a multifaceted biological process is restitution: the initial step in complex wound repair.

These cells exhibit distinct cell cycle dynamics: ISCs cycle with a period of 24 h and absorptive transit-amplifying cells cycle with a period of ∼12 h, whereas secretory transit-amplifying cells arrest their cycle. The cell cycle dynamics of ISCs and their progeny are a systems-level property that emerges from interactions between the cell cycle control machinery and multiple regulatory pathways.
