  • Cellular Senescence and Tumor Suppression

    Edited by Peter D. Adams, John M. Sedivy ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    As cells mature they naturally stop dividing and enter a period called senescence. But cellular senescence can also be induced prematurely by certain oncogenes involved in cancer development. Cellular senescence, a growth-arrest program that limits the lifespan of mammalian cells and prevents unlimited cell proliferation, is attracting considerable interest because of its links to tumor ...
