  • In vitro, cellular senescence is a potent cell-autonomous barrier to OSKM transcription factor-mediated reprogramming, similar to its tumour suppressor role.

    “In vitro studies demonstrated that cellular senescence is a potent cell-autonomous barrier for transcription factor-mediated reprograming using OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and MYC (commonly referred to as OSKM), in a manner similar to its role in tumour suppression181–183.”

    From Cellular senescence in ageing: from mechanisms to therapeutic opportunities (2021) · cites this paper as [181]

    The Abstract says that senescence may be a barrier to reprogramming in cultured cells and compares p53’s effects on reprogramming and tumour formation. But it says the senescence mechanism is suggested rather than demonstrated, and does not establish senescence specifically as a cell-autonomous barrier to OSKM-mediated reprogramming. (LLM, conf=0.84)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Activation of p53 helps explain why induced pluripotent stem cells are produced only rarely during reprogramming.

    “Recently we, and others, showed that p53 activation contributed to the low frequency of generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) during cell reprogramming [79,80].”

    From The p53 orchestra: Mdm2 and Mdmx set the tone (2010) · cites this paper as [80]

  • Reducing p53 with shRNA makes cell reprogramming more efficient.

    “Knocking down p53 by shRNA increased the efficiency of cell reprogramming.”

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.
