Nuclear and transcriptional dysregulations during cellular senescence

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

Cellular senescence, which is characterised by a proliferation arrest, is a driver of ageing (1). Several stresses can induce cellular senescence, including persistent DNA damage, telomere dysfunction, and oncogene activation. Read more
