Journal ArticleDOI
Rb-mediated heterochromatin formation and silencing of E2F target genes during cellular senescence.

TL;DR: A distinct heterochromatic structure that accumulates in senescent human fibroblasts is described, which is designated senescence-associated heterochROMatic foci (SAHF) and is associated with the stable repression of E2F target genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel role for high-mobility group a proteins in cellular senescence and heterochromatin formation.

TL;DR: This work shows that the High-Mobility Group A (HMGA) proteins accumulate on the chromatin of senescent fibroblasts and are essential structural components of SAHFs, and implies that HMGA proteins also act in tumor suppressor networks.
