Biomolecular bases of the senescence process and cancer. A new approach to oncological treatment linked to ageing
10 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
Human ageing is associated with a gradual decline in the physiological functions of the body at multiple levels and it is a key risk factor for many diseases, including cancer. Ageing process is intimately related to widespread cellular senescence, characterised by an irreversible loss of proliferative capacity and altered functioning associated with telomere attrition, accumulation of DNA damage and compromised...
