Abstract

Almost half a century after the first reports describing the limited replicative potential of primary cells in culture, there is now overwhelming evidence for the existence of “cellular senescence” in vivo. It is being recognized as a critical feature of mammalian cells to suppress tumorigenesis, acting alongside cell death programs. Here, we review the various features of cellular senescence and discuss their contribution to tumor suppression. Additionally, we highlight the power and limitations of the biomarkers currently used to identify senescent cells in vitro and in vivo.

  • The permanent growth arrest can deplete progenitor or stem cell pools, thereby compromising tissue repair and regeneration.

    “The permanent growth arrest can deplete progenitor or stem cell pools, thereby compromising tissue repair and regeneration”

    From Mitochondrial Dysfunction Induces Senescence with a Distinct Secretory Phenotype (2016) · cites this paper as Kuilman et al., 2010

    The ‘Replicative cellular senescence’ and ‘Cell cycle arrest’ sections describe senescence as a stable, long-term loss of proliferative capacity. Our copy does not say that this arrest depletes progenitor or stem cell pools or consequently compromises tissue repair and regeneration. (LLM, conf=0.85)

  • Senescent cells communicate with their microenvironment through juxtacrine NOTCH/JAG1 signaling, release of ROS, cytoplasmic bridges, and extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes.

    “Senescent cells also communicate with their microenvironment through juxtacrine NOTCH/JAG1 signaling (Ito et al., 2017), release of ROS (Kuilman et al., 2010), cytoplasmic bridges (Video S1) (Biran et al., 2015), and extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes”

    From Cellular Senescence: Defining a Path Forward (2019) · cites this paper as Kuilman et al., 2010

    The ROS section (page unavailable) says ROS levels increase during replicative and oncogene-induced senescence. The Secreted factors in senescence section (page unavailable) describes communication with neighboring cells through secreted factors, but does not identify released ROS as one of those signals. The Kuilman citation is attached specifically to the ROS part of the sentence, not the other listed mechanisms. (LLM, conf=0.84)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Increased lysosomal GLB1 and p16 are commonly used immunohistological biomarkers of senescence.

    “Increased lysosomal β-galactosidase (GLB1) and the DNA damage repair protein p16INK4A (p16, encoded by CDKN2A) are commonly used immunohistological biomarkers of senescence [41].”

    From Characterisation of premature cell senescence in Alzheimer's disease using single nuclear transcriptomics (2024) · cites this paper as [41]

    The sections “Induction of SA-b-GAL activity” and “Identifying senescent cells” describe GLB1-derived β-galactosidase activity and p16INK4A as commonly used senescence markers. But the paper describes an activity assay for SA-β-GAL, not immunohistological detection of GLB1, and identifies p16INK4A as a cell-cycle inhibitor rather than a DNA-damage repair protein. Page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)

  • Cellular senescence halts proliferation of damaged or dysfunctional cells and constrains malignant progression of tumour cells.

    “Cellular senescence, which halts the proliferation of damaged or dysfunctional cells, is an important mechanism to constrain the malignant progression of tumour cells1,2.”
  • Activated oncogenes can induce senescence (OIS) as a tumor-suppressive response, restricting the uncontrolled proliferation of potentially oncogenic cells.

    “Moreover, activated oncogenes can induce senescence (known as OIS) as a tumor-suppressive response, restricting the uncontrolled proliferation of potentially oncogenic cells.”

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.
