Although senescence has been considered as an irreversible cell arrest state, accumulating evidence challenge this view. Consequently, senescence appears as an imperfect barrier to impede cancer progression, constituting a step prior to disease relapse. Therefore, cancer treatment strategies may benefit if revisited to include senolytic agents.
尽管衰老一直被认为是一种不可逆的细胞停滞状态,但越来越多的证据对这一观点提出了挑战。因此,衰老似乎是阻碍癌症进展的一个不完美障碍,是疾病复发之前的一个阶段。所以,如果重新审视癌症治疗策略以纳入衰老细胞溶解剂,可能会从中受益。
