“Investigating a novel role for senescence-associated stem cell gene expression”. Mekayla Storer

Friday, November 7, 2014

During senescence, cells undergo a proliferative arrest that seems to induce a tumorigenic effect on the neighbouring cells through secretion of specific molecules. The identification of senescence-related genes…
