Reaching the limit of cell divisions, a phenomenon referred to as replicative aging, of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae involves a progressive increase in the cell volume. However, the exact relationship between the number of cell divisions accomplished (replicative age), the potential for further divisions and yeast cell volume has not been investigated thoroughly. In this study an increase of the yeast cell volume was achieved by treatment with pheromone α for up to 18 h. Plotting the number of cell divisions (replicative life span) of the pheromone-treated cells as a function of the cell volume attained during the treatment showed an inverse linear relationship. An analogous inverse relationship between the initial cell volume and replicative life span was found for the progeny of the pheromone-treated yeast. This phenomenon indicates that attaining an excessive volume may be a factor contributing to the limitation of cellular divisions of yeast cells.

Mammalian somatic cells and also cells of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are capable of undergoing a limited number of divisions. Reaching the division limit is referred to, apparently not very fortunately, as replicative aging. A common feature of S. cerevisiae cells and fibroblasts approaching the limit of cell divisions in vitro is attaining giant volumes. In yeast cells this phenomenon is an inevitable consequence of budding so it is not causally related to aging. Therefore, reaching a critically large cell volume may underlie the limit of cell divisions. A similar phenomenon may limit the number of cell divisions of cultured mammalian cells. The term replicative (generative) aging may be therefore illegitimate.
