Proteostasis failure and cellular senescence in long‐term cultured postmitotic rat neurons
25 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
Cellular senescence, a stress-induced irreversible cell cycle arrest, has been defined for mitotic cells and is implicated in aging of replicative tissues. Age-related functional decline in the brain is often attributed to a failure of protein homeostasis (proteostasis), largely in postmitotic neurons, which accordingly is a process distinct by definition from senescence. It is nevertheless possible that...
