Senescence-Associated β-Galactosidase Detection in Pathology
25 Sept 2022
Abstract excerpt
Activity of β-galactosidase at pH 6 is a classic maker of senescence in cellular biology. Cellular senescence, a state of highly stable cell cycle arrest, is often compared to apoptosis as an intrinsic tumor suppression mechanism. It is also thought that SA-β-gal is crucial in malignant cell transformation. High levels of senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) can be found in cancer and benign lesions...
