Telomere, DNA damage, and oxidative stress in stem cell aging
1 Dec 2010
Abstract excerpt
"Stem cell aging" is a novel concept that developed together with the advances of stem cell biology, especially the sophisticated prospectively isolation and characterization of multipotent somatic tissue stem cells. Although being immortal in principle, stem cells can also undergo aging processes and potentially contribute to organismal aging. The impact of an age-dependent decline of stem cell function weighs...
