Biomarkers of replicative senescence revisited

open access: yes, 2016
Biomarkers of replicative senescence can be defined as those ultrastructural and physiological variations as well as molecules whose changes in expression, activity or function correlate with aging, as a result of the gradual exhaustion of replicative ...

Senescence induction; a possible cancer therapy

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2009
Cellular immortalization is a crucial step during the development of human cancer. Primary mammalian cells reach replicative exhaustion after several passages in vitro, a process called replicative senescence.

Gene expression profiling of replicative and induced senescence

open access: yes, 2015
Cellular senescence is a cell cycle arrest accompanied by high expression of cyclin dependent kinase inhibitors which counteract overactive growth signals, which serves as a tumor suppressive mechanism.

Differential gene expression in rodent embryo fibroblasts upon replicative senescence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Cancer arises as a consequence of the accumulation of multiple independent mutations in genes that regulate cell proliferation and survival. The acquisition of an unlimited proliferative potential is probably a critical step in this process since normal ...

Stable cellular senescence is associated with persistent DDR activation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The DNA damage response (DDR) is activated upon DNA damage generation to promote DNA repair and inhibit cell cycle progression in the presence of a lesion.

Necdin modulates proliferative cell survival of human cells in response to radiation-induced genotoxic stress

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2012
Background The finite replicative lifespan of cells, termed cellular senescence, has been proposed as a protective mechanism against the proliferation of oncogenically damaged cells, that fuel cancer. This concept is further supported by the induction of

Both genome instability and replicative senescence stem from the shortest telomere in telomerase-negative cells

open access: yesNature Communications
In the absence of telomerase, telomere shortening triggers replicative senescence, a tumor suppressor mechanism that is also associated with oncogenic genomic instability.

RNA sequencing identifies common pathways between cigarette smoke exposure and replicative senescence in human airway epithelia

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Aging is affected by genetic and environmental factors, and cigarette smoking is strongly associated with accumulation of senescent cells.

Role of p16INK4A in Replicative Senescence and DNA Damage-Induced Premature Senescence in p53-Deficient Human Cells

open access: yesBiochemistry Research International, 2012
The p16INK4A (hereafter p16) tumor suppressor is encoded by the INK4A/ARF locus which is among the most commonly dysregulated sequences in human cancer. By inhibiting cyclin-dependent kinases, p16 activates the G1-S checkpoint, and this response is often

RNase H1 and Sen1 ensure that transient TERRA R-loops promote the repair of short telomeres

open access: yesEMBO Reports
Telomere repeat-containing RNA (TERRA) is transcribed at telomeres and forms RNA–DNA hybrids. In budding yeast, the presence of RNA–DNA hybrids at short telomeres promotes homology-directed repair (HDR) and prevents accelerated replicative senescence ...
