Cellular senescence was first described by Hayflick and Moorhead as a permanent cell cycle arrest occurring when cultured cells reach their replicative limit (replicative senescence). This is defined by cells undergoing sufficient divisions to cause telomere shortening, which elicit a DNA damage response ...
Senescence of Podospora anserina is triggered by a cytoplasmic and infectious factor (the determinant of senescence) and is always correlated with mitochondrial DNA modifications, especially with the accumulation of small circular subgenomic DNA molecules, the senDNAs. Several observations have suggested ...
Cellular senescence is a process that results from a variety of stresses and leads to a state of irreversible growth arrest. Senescent cells accumulate during aging and have been implicated in promoting a variety of age-related diseases. Cellular senescence may play an important role in tumor suppr...

As we grow older, aches and pains can become a chronic part of life. But experts say it doesn't have to—and solutions are on the way.
What does the antagonistic pleiotropy theory of aging assume about genes that have a debilitating effect on the organism during its senescence? What is Lamarck's theory of inheritance? Define gene, trait, and chromosome. What are the various steps involved in the gene translation? How do differen...
Cellular senescence is a state of stable cell cycle arrest. Cells remain metabolically active, but no longer divide or respond to growth-promoting stimuli.
Evolutionary Biology of Aging. Future Directions This chapter explores five areas—genetic architecture of senescence, the relationship between physiological and demographic decline, the importance of parasites and the immune system, sex differences in behavior and aging, and studies o...

(wikipedia senescence) Noun (en-noun) (biology) The state or process of ageing, especially in humans; old age. (cell biology) Ceasing to divide by mitosis because of shortening of telomeres or excessive DNA damage. (gerontology) Old age; accumulated damage to macromolecules, cells, tissues and...
Production of age-related DNA strand breakage in brain cells of senescence-accelerated prone (SAMP1) mouse. Amounts of DNA strand breaks were estimated by the proportion of cells without tails (PCWT) and the average lengths of tail momentum (ALTM) in comet images... M Hayashi,K Nishida,D...
