Systemic DNA Damage Response and Metabolic Syndrome as a Premalignant State

Abstract excerpt

Damaged DNA can lead to aneuploidy and/or chromosomal instability, which is believed to be major contributor to tumor progression. DNA damage in response to genotoxic and oncogenic stresses activate the tumor suppressor pathways initiating DNA damage response (DDR). One of the cellular fates in response to DDR is permanent growth arrest in mitotically active cells, including stem cells, leading to senescence. On...
