Elevated Local Senescence in Diabetic Wound Healing Is Linked to Pathological Repair via CXCR2

Cellular senescence can be broadly defined as a stable, but essentially irreversible, loss of proliferative capacity. Historically, senescence has been described as a negative outcome of advanced cellular age. It is now clear, however, that senescence represents a dynamic autonomous stress response, integral to long-term tumor suppression. Transient induction of a senescent phenotype has actually been suggested to promote regeneration in both...
