Notch signalling mediates secondary senescence
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Oncogene induced senescence (OIS) is a tumour suppressive response to oncogene activation that can be transmitted to neighbouring cells through secreted factors of the senescence associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Using single-cell transcriptomics we observed two distinct endpoints, a primary marked by Ras and a secondary by Notch. We find that secondary senescence in vitro and in vivo requires Notch, rather than SASP alone as previously thought. Currently, primary and secondary senescent cells are not thought of as functionally distinct endpoints. A blunted SASP response and the induction of fibrillar collagens in secondary senescence compared to OIS point towards a functional diversification.
