The process whereby an activated receptor conveys information down the signaling pathway, resulting in a change in the function or state of a cell. Progression through the phases of the meiotic cell cycle, in which canonically a cell replicates to produce four offspring with half the chromosomal content of the progenitor cell. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. A checkpoint during late prophase I (pachytene) which prevents segregation of homologous chromosomes until recombination is completed and ensures proper distribution of the genetic material to the gametes. Any process that modulates the rate or extent of progression through the cell cycle. Any process that modulates the rate or extent of progression through the meiotic cell cycle. The cell cycle regulatory process by which progression through the cycle can be halted until conditions are suitable for the cell to proceed to the next stage. The process whereby a signal is released and/or conveyed from one location to another. A signal transduction-based surveillance mechanism that ensures accurate chromosome replication and segregation by preventing progression through a meiotic cell cycle until conditions are suitable for the cell to proceed to the next stage. A signal transduction based surveillance mechanism that acts during a meiotic cell cycle and prevents the initiation of mitosis until DNA replication is complete, thereby ensuring that progeny inherit a full complement of the haploid genome. A cell cycle checkpoint that delays the metaphase/anaphase transition of a meiotic cell cycle until the spindle is correctly assembled and chromosomes are attached to the spindle.
