Oncogenic ras provokes premature cell senescence associated with accumulation of p53 and p16INK4a
Serrano, M., Lin, A. W., McCurrach, M. E., Beach, D., & Lowe, S. W. (1997) · Cell · doi:10.1016/s0092-8674(00)81902-9 · Cited by 5,218 · cited 1×
“Expression of activated ras in normal cells induces a senescence-like state by up-regulation of p16 and p53.(32) Spitz nevi have to undergo multiple rounds of cell division to reach their average size, making it likely that control over entry into S-phase is at least temporarily altered.”

“Evidence is emerging that genomic instability is genetically controlled.(40) If the control over genomic stability is not altered in time, the probability of acquiring the necessary number of genetic events for full transformation is minimal.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
