Cellular senescence: aging, cancer, and injury

A Calcinotto, J Kohli, E Zagato… - Physiological …, 2019 - journals.physiology.org
Cellular senescence is a permanent state of cell cycle arrest that occurs in proliferating cells
subjected to different stresses. Senescence is, therefore, a cellular defense mechanism that …

The dynamic nature of senescence in cancer

S Lee, CA Schmitt - Nature cell biology, 2019 - nature.com
Cellular senescence is implicated in physiological and pathological processes spanning
development, wound healing, age-related decline in organ functions and cancer. Here, we …

A decade of transcription factor-mediated reprogramming to pluripotency

K Takahashi, S Yamanaka - Nature reviews Molecular cell biology, 2016 - nature.com
The past 10 years have seen great advances in our ability to manipulate cell fate, including
the induction of pluripotency in vitro to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). This …

Induced pluripotent stem cells and their use in human models of disease and development

P Karagiannis, K Takahashi, M Saito… - Physiological …, 2019 - journals.physiology.org
The discovery of somatic cell nuclear transfer proved that somatic cells can carry the same
genetic code as the zygote, and that activating parts of this code are sufficient to reprogram …

Human pluripotent stem cells recurrently acquire and expand dominant negative P53 mutations

FT Merkle, S Ghosh, N Kamitaki, J Mitchell, Y Avior… - Nature, 2017 - nature.com
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPS cells) can self-renew indefinitely, making them an
attractive source for regenerative therapies. This expansion potential has been linked with …

Mechanisms of disseminated cancer cell dormancy: an awakening field

MS Sosa, P Bragado, JA Aguirre-Ghiso - Nature Reviews Cancer, 2014 - nature.com
Metastases arise from residual disseminated tumour cells (DTCs). This can happen years
after primary tumour treatment because residual tumour cells can enter dormancy and …

Unravelling mechanisms of p53-mediated tumour suppression

KT Bieging, SS Mello, LD Attardi - Nature Reviews Cancer, 2014 - nature.com
Abstract p53 is a crucial tumour suppressor that responds to diverse stress signals by
orchestrating specific cellular responses, including transient cell cycle arrest, cellular …

Mutant p53 in cancer: new functions and therapeutic opportunities

PAJ Muller, KH Vousden - Cancer cell, 2014 - cell.com
Many different types of cancer show a high incidence of TP53 mutations, leading to the
expression of mutant p53 proteins. There is growing evidence that these mutant p53s have …

Cellular senescence in development, regeneration and disease

M Rhinn, B Ritschka, WM Keyes - Development, 2019 - journals.biologists.com
