Human Gene Set: GOBP_REPLICATIVE_SENESCENCE

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_REPLICATIVE_SENESCENCE

Standard name GOBP_REPLICATIVE_SENESCENCE
Systematic name M14683
Brief description The process by which normal somatic cells reach an irreversible stage of cell cycle arrest following multiple rounds of replication; this end stage is associated with marked changes in gene expression and function. This is a natural barrier to unlimited proliferation of somatic cells, and is believed to be contolled by telomere shortening. [PMID:17014937, PMID:23061726]
