Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular senescence: when bad things happen to good cells

TL;DR: Understanding the causes and consequences of cellular senescence has provided novel insights into how cells react to stress, especially genotoxic stress, and how this cellular response can affect complex organismal processes such as the development of cancer and ageing.
Journal ArticleDOI

A DNA damage checkpoint response in telomere-initiated senescence

TL;DR: It is proposed that telomere-initiated senescence reflects a DNA damage checkpoint response that is activated with a direct contribution from dysfunctional telomeres.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oncogene-induced senescence is a DNA damage response triggered by DNA hyper-replication

TL;DR: It is shown that senescence, triggered by the expression of an activated oncogene (H-RasV12) in normal human cells, is a consequence of the activation of a robust DDR, and proposed that OIS results from the enforcement of a DDR triggered by oncogen-induced DNA hyper-replication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemokine Signaling via the CXCR2 Receptor Reinforces Senescence

TL;DR: It is reported that knocking down the chemokine receptor CXCR2 (IL8RB) alleviates both replicative and oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) and diminishes the DNA-damage response and suggests that senescent cells activate a self-amplifying secretory network in which CX CR2-binding chemokines reinforce growth arrest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Living on a break: cellular senescence as a DNA-damage response.

TL;DR: The diverse mechanisms that lead to DNA-damage generation and the activation of DNA- damage-response signalling pathways are discussed, together with the evidence for their contribution to the establishment and maintenance of cellular senescence in the context of organismal ageing and cancer development.
