Abstract excerpt
Hemodialysis treatment induces mononuclear cell activation particularly if cellulosic hemodialysis membrane is used. In normal cells, repeated activation induce a process of accelerate cellular senescence. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the mononuclear cell activation associated to hemodialysis with cellulosic membranes favors a process of accelerate senescence in mononuclear cells. Our...
