Postmitotic neurons develop a p21-dependent senescence-like phenotype driven by a DNA damage response
In senescent cells, a DNA damage response drives not only irreversible loss of replicative capacity but also production and secretion of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and bioactive peptides including pro-inflammatory cytokines. This makes senescent cells a potential cause of tissue functional declin...
