Abstract excerpt
The expression of constitutively active H-RasV12 oncogene has been described to induce proliferative arrest and premature senescence in many cell models. There are a number of studies indicating an association between senescence and lysosomal enzyme alterations, e.g. lysosomal β-galactosidase is the most widely used biomarker to detect senescence in cultured cells and we previously reported that H-RasV12...
