Abstract excerpt
Increasing evidence indicates that cells exposed to high glucose exhibit shortened proliferative lifespan and enter the state of senescence earlier. However, the contribution of hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress to premature cell senescence is not entirely clear. In the current study we have examined the role of oxidative stress in cellular senescence of human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMC) exposed to...
