Anti-aging is an eternal topic of human beings, but do you understand cellular aging?
Time of Update: 2022-05-14
Mechanistically, many chemotherapy induces DNA damage in cancer cells, thereby triggering senescence through activation of the P53-Rb pathway mediated by ATM-CHK2 and ATR-CHK1 kinases .
This anticancer treatment induces irreparable DNA damage responses, which in turn activate ATM or ATR and p53-p21 pathways, mediating apoptosis and cellular senescence .
