miR-96-5p expression is sufficient to induce and maintain the senescent cell fate in the absence of stress

Abstract excerpt

Senescence is a cell fate driven by different types of stress that results in exit from the cell cycle and expression of an inflammatory senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Here, we demonstrate that stable overexpression of miR-96-5p was sufficient to induce cellular senescence in the absence of genotoxic stress, inducing expression of certain markers of early senescence including SASP factors while...
