Abstract excerpt
Genetic ablation of the tumor suppressor PTEN in prostatic epithelial cells (PECs) induces cell senescence. However, unlike oncogene-induced senescence, no hyperproliferation phase and no signs of DNA damage response (DDR) were observed in PTEN-deficient PECs; PTEN loss-induced senescence (PICS) was reported to be a novel type of cellular senescence. Our study reveals that PTEN ablation in prostatic luminal...
