Experimental evidence suggests that ageing-associated alterations in the tissue microenvironment act to promote prostate carcinogenesis. In this review, we survey the cellular state of senescence, review its causes, and describe associations with ageing and cancer. We further discuss senescent stromal gene expression changes, which may mediate these effects, and that may serve as therapeutic targets.
实验证据表明,组织微环境中与衰老相关的改变会促进前列腺癌的发生。在这篇综述中,我们研究了衰老细胞状态,回顾了其成因,并描述了与衰老和癌症的关联。我们还进一步讨论了衰老的基质基因表达变化,这些变化可能介导了这些效应,并且可能成为治疗靶点。
