Journal ArticleDOI

A microRNA component of the p53 tumour suppressor network

TL;DR: A family of miRNAs, miR-34a–c, whose expression reflected p53 status is described, whose encoded genes are direct transcriptional targets of p53, whose induction by DNA damage and oncogenic stress depends on p53 both in vitro and in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Senescence and tumour clearance is triggered by p53 restoration in murine liver carcinomas

TL;DR: It is indicated that p53 loss can be required for the maintenance of aggressive carcinomas, and illustrates how the cellular senescence program can act together with the innate immune system to potently limit tumour growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Senescence of activated stellate cells limits liver fibrosis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that senescent cells accumulate in murine livers treated to produce fibrosis, a precursor pathology to cirrhosis, derived primarily from activated hepatic stellate cells, which initially proliferate in response to liver damage and produce the extracellular matrix.
