TY - JOUR T1 - Cellular senescence in cancer treatment: friend or foe? A1 - Kahlem, Pascal LA - en PB - American Society for Clinical Investigation YR - 2004 UL - http://buscaintegrada.pucsp.br/vufind/Record/pubmed-311442 AB - Damage to DNA, the prime target of anticancer therapy, triggers programmed cellular responses. In addition to apoptosis, therapy-mediated premature senescence has been identified as another drug-responsive program that impacts the outcome of cancer therapy. Here, we discuss whether induction of senescence is a beneficial or, rather, a detrimental consequence of the therapeutic intervention. KW - Perspective Series ER -
