Abstract excerpt
The Werner syndrome (WS) is characterized with both premature aging and tumorigenic phenotypes. In this study, we introduced a tumorigenic mutation p53N236S (referred to as p53S later), which is found in immortalized WS mouse embryo fibroblasts, back into WS mice to investigate its impact on the telomere dysfunction-induced aging process. Intriguingly, the introduction of p53S rescued the aging phenotypes of WS...
