Abstract

Normal cells can respond to expression of activated oncogenes by initiating cellular senescence, a permanent state of proliferative arrest. But whether this process reflects a relevant anticancer mechanism has been debated. Several studies now show that oncogene- induced senescence can occur in vivo and provides a bona fide barrier to tumorigenesis.
