| Research Abstract |
Cellular senescence is defined as the irreversible arrest of cell cycle. Senescence in premalignant lesion and escape from senescence are thought to be important the early stage of tumoriogenesis. Senescence-associated markers are observed in cirrhotic liver and the markers disappear in dysplastic nodules. The results imply that the cirrhotic state already might to be premalignancy.
