Abstract
Cells tend to disintegrate themselves or are forced to undergo such destructive processes in critical circumstances. This complex cellular function necessitates various mechanisms and molecular pathways in order to be executed. The very nature of cell death is essentially important and vital for maintaining homeostasis, thus any type of disturbing occurrence might lead to different sorts of diseases and dysfunctions. Cell death has various modalities and yet, every now and then, a new type of this elegant procedure gets to be discovered. The diversity of cell death compels the need for a universal organizing system in order to facilitate further studies, therapeutic strategies and the invention of new methods of research. Considering all that, we attempted to review most of the known cell death mechanisms and sort them all into one arranging system that operates under a simple but subtle decision-making (If \ Else) order as a sorting algorithm, in which it decides to place and sort an input data (a type of cell death) into its proper set, then a subset and finally a group of cell death. By proposing this algorithm, the authors hope it may solve the problems regarding newer and/or undiscovered types of cell death and facilitate research and therapeutic applications of cell death.

Abstract
Being the major cellular component of highly dynamic tissue, endometrial stromal cells (EnSCs) are exposed to cycles of proliferation upon hormonal stimulation, which might pose risks for the accumulation of mutations and malignization. However, endometrial stromal tumors are rare and uncommon. The present study uncovered defense mechanisms that might underlie the resistance of EnSCs against oncogenic transformation. All experiments were performed in vitro using the following methods: FACS, WB, RT-PCR, IF, molecular cloning, lentiviral transduction, and CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. We revealed that the expression of the mutant HRASG12V leads to EnSC senescence. We experimentally confirmed the inability of HRASG12V-expressing EnSCs to bypass senescence and resume proliferation, even upon estrogen stimulation. At the molecular level, the induction of oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) was accompanied by activation of the MEK/ERK, PI3K/AKT, p53/p21WAF/CIP/Rb, and p38/p16INK4a/Rb pathways; however, inhibiting either pathway did not prevent cell cycle arrest. PTEN loss was established as an additional feature of HRASG12V-induced senescence in EnSCs. Using CRISPR-Cas9-mediated PTEN knockout, we identified PTEN loss-induced senescence as a reserve molecular mechanism to prevent the transformation of HRASG12V-expressing EnSCs. The present study highlights oncogene-induced senescence as an antitumor defense mechanism of EnSCs controlled by multiple backup molecular pathways.

Abstract
Background and purpose Previous studies highlighted that chemoprevention curcumin analog-1.1 (CCA-1.1) demonstrated an antitumor effect on breast, leukemia, and colorectal cancer cells. By utilizing immortalized MDA-MB-231 and HCC1954 cells, we evaluated the anticancer properties of CCA-1.1 and its mediated activity to promote cellular death. Experimental approach Cytotoxicity and anti-proliferation were assayed using trypan blue exclusion. The cell cycle profile after CCA-1.1 treatment was established through flow cytometry. May-Grünwald-Giemsa and Hoechst staining were performed to determine the cell cycle arrest upon CCA-1.1 treatment. The involvement of CCA-1.1 in mitotic kinases (aurora A, p-aurora A, p-PLK1, and p-cyclin B1) expression was investigated by immunoblotting. CCA-1.1-treated cells were stained with the X-gal solution to examine the effect on senescence. ROS level and mitochondrial respiration were assessed by DCFDA assay and mitochondrial oxygen consumption rate, respectively. Findings/Results CCA-1.1 exerted cytotoxic activity and inhibited cell proliferation with an irreversible effect, and the flow cytometry analysis demonstrated that CCA-1.1 significantly halted during the G2/M phase, and further assessment revealed that CCA-1.1 caused metaphase arrest. Immunoblot assays confirmed CCA-1.1 suppressed aurora A kinase in MDA-MB-231 cells. The ROS level was elevated after treatment with CCA-1.1, which might promote cellular senescence and suppress basal mitochondrial respiration in MDA-MB-231 cells. Conclusion and implications Our data suggested the in vitro proof-of-concept that supports the involvement in cell cycle regulation and ROS generation as contributors to the effectiveness of CCA-1.1 in suppressing breast cancer cell growth.

DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 133:104420.

Abstract
Unlike most mammalian cell lines, fish cell lines are immortal and resistant to cellular senescence. Elevated expression of H-Ras contributes to the induction of senescence in a fish cell line, EPC, but is not sufficient to induce full senescence. Here, we focused on the absence of a p16INK4a/ARF locus in the fish genome, and investigated whether this might be a critical determinant of the resistance of EPC cells to full senescence. We found that transfected EPC cells constitutively overexpressing p16INK4a exhibited large size and flat morphology characteristic of prematurely senescent cells; the cells also showed p53-independent senescence-like growth arrest and senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity. Furthermore, the mRNA levels of proinflammatory senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) factors increased in EPC cells constitutively overexpressing p16INK4a. These results suggest that the lack of p16INK4a in the fish genome may be a critical determinant of senescence resistance in fish cell lines.

Abstract
Although the phenomenon of mitotic catastrophe was first described more than 80 years ago, only recently has this term been used to explain a mechanism of cell death linked to delayed mitosis. Several mechanisms have been suggested for mitotic catastrophe development and cell fate. Depending on molecular perturbations, mitotic catastrophe can end in three types of cell death, namely apoptosis, necrosis, or autophagy. Moreover, mitotic catastrophe can be associated with different types of cell aging, the development of which negatively affects tumor elimination and, consequently, reduces the therapeutic effect. The effective triggering of mitotic catastrophe in clinical practice requires induction of DNA damage as well as inhibition of the molecular pathways that regulate cell cycle arrest and DNA repair. Here we discuss various methods to detect mitotic catastrophe, the mechanisms of its development, and the attempts to use this phenomenon in cancer treatment.

Abstract
The accumulation of senescent cells accompanies organismal aging. Senescent cells produce an inflammatory microenvironment that is conducive to the development of many age-related diseases. Here we describe the different situations leading to cellular senescence and show that these situations are frequently associated with DNA damage. We also discuss the intimate link between cell aging and perturbations in the nuclear envelope, namely in nuclear lamins, as seen in progeroid syndromes. Finally, we present evidence that these alterations are associated with DNA repair defects, the persistence of DNA damage, and an inflammatory phenotype.

Abstract
In contrast to most mammals including human, fish cell lines have long been known to be immortal, with little sign of cellular senescence, despite the absence of transformation. Recently, our laboratory reported that DNA demethylation with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-dC) induces telomere-independent cellular senescence and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in an immortal fish cell line, EPC (Epithelioma papulosum cyprini). However, it is not known how fish derived cultured cells are usually resistant to aging in vitro. In this study, we focused on Ras, which carries out the main role of Ras-induced senescence (RIS), and investigated the role of Ras in the regulation of senescence in EPC cells. Our results show that 5-Aza-dC induced the expression of the ras (hras, kras, nras) gene in EPC cells. EPC cells overexpressing HRas or its constitutively active form (HRasV12) showed p53-dependent senescence-like growth arrest and senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity with a large and/or flat morphology characteristic of cell senescence. On the other hand, the SASP was not induced. These results imply that the increased expression of HRas contributes to early senescence in EPC cells, but it alone may not be sufficient for the full senescence, even if HRas is aberrantly activated. Thus, the limited mechanism of RIS may play a role in the senescence-resistance of fish cell lines.

Abstract
The maintenance of genome stability is essential for the cell as the integrity of genomic information guaranties reproduction of a whole organism. DNA damage occurring in response to different natural and nonnatural stimuli (errors in DNA replication, UV radiation, chemical agents, etc.) is normally detected by special cellular machinery that induces DNA repair. However, further accumulation of genetic lesions drives the activation of cell death to eliminate cells with defective genome. This particular feature is used for targeting fast-proliferating tumor cells during chemo-, radio-, and immunotherapy. Among different cell death modalities induced by DNA damage, apoptosis is the best studied. Nevertheless, nonapoptotic cell death and adaptive stress responses are also activated following genotoxic stress and play a crucial role in the outcome of anticancer therapy. Here, we provide an overview of nonapoptotic cell death pathways induced by DNA damage and discuss their interplay with cellular senescence, mitotic catastrophe, and autophagy.

Abstract
TRF2 is a telomere binding protein, a component of the shelterin complex that plays a major role in maintaining the integrity of the genome. TRF2 is over-expressed in a number of human cancers including Head and Neck cancer and might play a key role in tumor initiation and development. p38 MAPK signaling pathway is strongly activated in response to various environmental and cellular stresses and thus overexpressed in most of the Head and Neck cancer cases. In this study, we investigated potential interactions of TRF2 with p38 in HNSCC cells and patient samples. Using in silico experiments, we identified interface polar residue Asp-354 of p38 and Arg-492, Arg-496 of TRF2 as protein–protein interaction hotspots. In addition to these interactions, Arg-49 residue of p38 was also found to interact with Glu-456 of TRF2. A detailed understanding of how phosphorylated and unphosphorylated state of p38 protein can influence the stability, specificity and to some extent a conformational change of p38-TRF2 binding is presented. Silencing of TRF2 significantly decreased the phosphorylation of p38 in HNSCC cells which was confirmed by western blot, immunofluorescence and co-immunoprecipitation and alternatively inhibiting p38 using p38 inhibitor (SB 203580) decreased the expression of TRF2 in HNSCC cells. Furthermore, we checked the effect of TRF2 silencing and p38 inhibition in cisplatin induced chemosensitivity of SCC-131 cells. TRF2 silencing and p38 inhibition chemosensitize HNSCC cells to cisplatin. Thus, targeting TRF2 in combinatorial therapeutics can be a treatment modality for Head and Neck cancer which involves inhibition of p38 MAPK pathway.

Abstract
Oncogenic signals lead to premature senescence in normal human cells causing a proliferation arrest and the elimination of these defective cells by immune cells. Oncogene‐induced senescence (OIS) prevents aberrant cell division and tumor initiation. In order to identify new regulators of OIS, we performed a loss‐of‐function genetic screen and identified that the loss of SCN9A allowed cells to escape from OIS. The expression of this sodium channel increased in senescent cells during OIS. This upregulation was mediated by NF‐κB transcription factors, which are well‐known regulators of senescence. Importantly, the induction of SCN9A by an oncogenic signal or by p53 activation led to plasma membrane depolarization, which in turn, was able to induce premature senescence. Computational and experimental analyses revealed that SCN9A and plasma membrane depolarization mediated the repression of mitotic genes through a calcium/Rb/E2F pathway to promote senescence. Taken together, our work delineates a new pathway, which involves the NF‐κB transcription factor, SCN9A expression, plasma membrane depolarization, increased calcium, the Rb/E2F pathway and mitotic gene repression in the regulation of senescence. This work thus provides new insight into the involvement of ion channels and plasma membrane potential in the control of senescence.

Abstract
Activation of oncogenic signaling paradoxically results in the permanent withdrawal from cell cycle and induction of senescence (oncogene-induced senescence (OIS)). OIS is a fail-safe mechanism used by the cells to prevent uncontrolled tumor growth, and, as such, it is considered as the first barrier against cancer. In order to progress, tumor cells thus need to first overcome the senescent phenotype. Despite the increasing attention gained by OIS in the past 20 years, this field is still rather young due to continuous emergence of novel pathways and processes involved in OIS. Among the many factors contributing to incomplete understanding of OIS are the lack of unequivocal markers for senescence and the complexity of the phenotypes revealed by senescent cells in vivo and in vitro. OIS has been shown to play major roles at both the cellular and organismal levels in biological processes ranging from embryonic development to barrier to cancer progression. Here we will briefly outline major advances in methodologies that are being utilized for induction, identification, and characterization of molecular processes in cells undergoing oncogene-induced senescence. The full description of such methodologies is provided in the corresponding chapters of the book.

Abstract
Cellular senescence, a form of cell cycle arrest, is one of the cellular responses to different types of exogenous and endogenous damage. The senescence phenotype can be induced in vitro by oncogene overexpression and/or DNA damage. Recently, we have reported a novel mechanism of cellular senescence induction by mild genotoxic stress. Specifically, we have shown that the formation of a small number of DNA lesions in normal and cancer cells during S phase leads to cellular senescence-like arrest within the same cell cycle. Here, based on this mechanism, we suggest an approach to remotely induce premature senescence in human cell cultures using short-term light irradiation. We used the genetically encoded photosensitizers, tandem KillerRed and miniSOG, targeted to chromatin by fusion to core histone H2B to induce moderate levels of DNA damage by light in S phase cells. We showed that the cells that express the H2B-fused photosensitizers acquire a senescence phenotype upon illumination with the appropriate light source. Furthermore, we demonstrated that both chromatin-targeted tandem KillerRed (produces O2−) and miniSOG (produces 1O2) induce single-stranded DNA breaks upon light illumination. Interestingly, miniSOG was also able to induce double-stranded DNA breaks.

Abstract
Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is a complex process, in which activation of oncogenic signals during early tumorigenesis results in a high degree of DNA replication stress. The ensuing response to the DNA damage produces a permanent G1 arrest that prevents unlimited cell proliferation and lessens the development of tumours. However, despite the role of OIS in the proliferative arrest resulting from an activating oncogenic-lesion has obtained wide support, there is also evidence indicating that cells may overcome oncogene-induced senescence under some circumstances. In this study, we have investigated the possibility that some of the assumptions on the role of DNA damage response (DDR) in triggering OIS may depend on the fact that most of the available data were obtained in mouse embryo fibroblast. By comparing the degree of OIS observed in mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEF) and mouse embryo astrocytes (MEA) obtained from the same individuals we have demonstrated that, despite truthful activation of DDR in both cell types, significant levels of OIS were only detected in MEF. Therefore, this uncoupling between OIS and DDR observed in astrocytes supports the intriguingly possibility that OIS is not a widespread response mechanism to DDR.

Abstract
Chemotherapeutic agents can induce accelerated senescence in tumor cells, an irreversible state of cell cycle arrest. Paclitaxel, a microtubule-stabilizing agent used to treat solid tumors of the breast, ovary, and lung and discodermolide, another stabilizing agent from a marine sponge, induce senescence in cultured cancer cells. The aim of this study was to determine if the microtubule-stabilizing agent peloruside A, a polyketide natural product from a marine sponge, can induce accelerated senescence in a breast cancer cell line MCF7. Doxorubicin, a DNA-damaging agent, paclitaxel, and discodermolide were used as positive controls. Senescence-associated-β-galactosidase activity was increased by peloruside A, similar to paclitaxel, discodermolde, and doxorubicin, with a potency heirarchy of doxorubicin > paclitaxel > discodermolide > peloruside, based on IC25 concentrations that inhibit proliferation. Clonogenic survival was significantly decreased by peloruside A, similar to doxorubicin and the two other microtubule-stabilizing agents. The tumor suppressor protein p53 increased after treatment, whereas pRb decreased in response to all four compounds. It was concluded that in addition to apoptosis, peloruside A causes accelerated senescence in a subpopulation of MCF7 cells that contributes to its potential anticancer activity in a breast cancer cell line.

Abstract
DNA damage response has been characterized as an important mediator of senescence phenotypes induced by activated oncogenes in normal human cells. Depletion of intracellular deoxyribonucleotide pools has been recently recognized as one of the major causes for DNA damage in these cells. Cells undergoing oncogene-induced senescence display decreased expression of several rate-limiting enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of deoxyribonucleotides, including thymidylate synthase (TS) and ribonucleotide reductase (RR). Individual depletion of these enzymes leads to premature senescence. Reciprocally, ectopic expression of TS and RR or addition of deoxyribonucleosides resulted in suppression of senescence phenotypes in normal or tumor cells caused by overexpression of activated HRAS or depletion of C-MYC, respectively. Therefore, in the current chapter, we will describe a methodology for the quantitative measurement of nucleotide pools in senescent cells.

Abstract
To date, dozens of stress‐induced cellular senescence phenotypes have been reported. These cellular senescence states may differ substantially from each other, as well as from replicative senescence through the presence of specific senescence features. Here, we attempted to catalog virtually all of the cellular senescence‐like states that can be induced by low molecular weight compounds. We summarized biological markers, molecular pathways involved in senescence establishment, and specific traits of cellular senescence states induced by more than fifty small molecule compounds.

Abstract
There are six core RASSF family proteins that contain conserved Ras Association domains and may serve as Ras effectors. They lack intrinsic enzymatic activity and appear to function as scaffolding and localization molecules. While initially being associated with pro-apoptotic signaling pathways such as Bax and Hippo, it is now clear that they can also connect Ras to a surprisingly broad range of signaling pathways that control senescence, inflammation, autophagy, DNA repair, ubiquitination and protein acetylation. Moreover, they may be able to impact the activation status of pro-mitogenic Ras effector pathways, such as the Raf pathway. The frequent epigenetic inactivation of RASSF genes in human tumors disconnects Ras from pro-death signaling systems, enhancing Ras driven transformation and metastasis. The best characterized members are RASSF1A and RASSF5 (NORE1A).

Abstract
Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) serves as an initial barrier to cancer development, being proposed as a possible explanation for the usually benign behavior of the pituitary adenomas. We aimed to explore the immunohistochemical expression of the OIS markers, senescence-associated lysosomal β-galactosidase (SA-β-GAL), p16, and p21 in different types of 345 pituitary adenomas and compared it with the expression in the normal pituitary and in the specimens from the repeated surgeries. SA-β-GAL was overexpressed in the pituitary adenomas, compared to the normal pituitaries. Growth hormone (GH) producing adenomas showed the strongest SA-β-GAL, with densely granulated (DG)-GH adenomas more reactive than the sparsely granulated (SG). Nuclear p21 was decreased in the adenomas, except for the SG-GH adenomas that had higher p21 than the normal pituitaries and the other adenomas. p16 was significantly lower in the adenomas, without type-related differences. SA-β-GAL was slightly lower and p16 slightly higher in the recurrences. Our findings indicate alterations of the senescence program in the different types of pituitary adenomas. Activation of senescence in the pituitary adenomas presents one possible explanation for their usually benign behavior, at least in the GH adenomas that show a synchronous increase of two OIS markers. However, subdivision into GH adenoma subtypes reveals differences that reflect complex regulatory mechanisms influenced by the interplay between the granularity pattern and the hormonal factors, with possible impact on the different clinical behavior of the SG- and DG-GH adenoma subtypes. p16 seems to have a more prominent role in the pituitary tumorigenesis than in the senescence. Recurrent growth in a subset of the pituitary adenomas is not associated with consistent changes in the senescence pattern.

Abstract
The role of Ras in human skin tumorigenesis induction is still ambiguous. Overexpression of oncogenic Ras causes premature senescence in cultured human cells and hyperplasia in transgenic mice. Here, we investigated whether the oncogenic insult outcome might depend on the nature of the founding keratinocyte. We demonstrate that overexpression of the constitutively active Ras-V12 induces senescence in primary human keratinocyte cultures, but that some cells escape senescence and proliferate indefinitely. Ras overexpression in transient-amplifying- or stem-cell-enriched cultures shows that p16 (encoded by CDKN2A) levels are crucial for the final result. Indeed, transient-amplifying keratinocytes expressing high levels of p16 are sensitive to Ras-V12-induced senescence, whereas cells with high proliferative potential, but that do not display p16, are resistant. The subpopulation that sustains the indefinite culture growth exhibits stem cell features. Bypass of senescence correlates with inhibition of the pRb (also known as RB1) pathway and resumption of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) activity. Immortalization is also sustained by activation of the ERK1 and ERK2 (ERK1/2, also known as MAPK3 and MAPK1) and Akt pathways. Moreover, only transduced cultures originating from cultures bearing stem cells induce tumors in nude mice. Our findings demonstrate that the Ras overexpression outcome depends on the clonogenic potential of the recipient keratinocyte and that only the stem cell compartment is competent to initiate tumorigenesis.

Abstract
The oncogenic BRAF(V600E) mutation is common in melanomas as well as moles. The roles that this mutation plays in the early events in the development of melanoma are poorly understood. This study demonstrates that expression of BRAF(V600E) is not only clastogenic, but synergizes for clastogenesis caused by exposure to ultraviolet radiation in the 300 to 320 nM (UVB) range. Expression of BRAF(V600E) was associated with induction of Chk1 pS280 and a reduction in chromatin remodeling factors BRG1 and BAF180. These alterations in the Chk1 signaling pathway and SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling pathway may contribute to the clastogenesis and UVB sensitivity. These results emphasize the importance of preventing sunburns in children with developing moles.

Abstract
Oncogenic-stress-induced senescence (OIS) is a stress response allowing normal cells, when receiving oncogenic signals, to stably arrest their proliferation. OIS thus acts to prevent aberrant cell proliferation and tumor formation. To identify novel tumor suppressive pathways, we have recently completed a loss-of-function genetic screen to identify novel genes promoting escape from OIS and thus, potentially, tumor formation when their functions are lost. Using this approach, we unexpectedly found that loss of function of the multidrug resistance protein 3 (MRP3 or ABCC3) promotes escape from OIS in human epithelial cells. Importantly, ABCC3 expression is reduced in human skin tumors, and ABCC3-knockout mice display increased sensitivity to RAS-induced skin carcinogenesis, concomitantly with decreased OIS. ABCC3 participates in resistance to chemotherapy via its transporter activity. Our data show that this transporter activity is involved in ABCC3-induced senescence, demonstrating that this protein has a complex role in cancer, since its loss of function may promote escape from OIS and tumor formation whereas its gain of function promotes resistance to chemotherapy.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is activated by numerous cellular insults, in particular those driving cancer formation, resulting in stable proliferation arrest and acquisition of specific features. By self-opposing to oncogenic stimulation, senescence is considered as a failsafe program, allowing, when functional, to inhibit cancers occurrence. Compelling evidences suggest a tumor suppressive activity of caspase-2, eventually independently of its effect on cell death. The original results described here demonstrate that this tumor suppressive activity of caspase-2 is mediated, at least in part, by its pro-senescing activity. Indeed, we have demonstrated in vitro and in vivo that loss of function of caspase-2 allows to escape oncogenic stress induced senescence. These results are discussed in the context of known tumor suppressive activity of caspase-2.

NORE1A is a Ras senescence effector that modulates HIPK2-dependent posttranslational modifications of p53. The Ras oncoprotein is a key driver of cancer. However, Ras also provokes senescence, which serves as a major barrier to Ras-driven transformation. Ras senescence pathways remain poorly characterized. NORE1A is a novel Ras effector that serves as a tumor suppressor. It is frequently inactivated in tumors. We show that NORE1A is a powerful Ras senescence effector and that down-regulation of NORE1A suppresses senescence induction by Ras and enhances Ras transformation. We show that Ras induces the formation of a complex between NORE1A and the kinase HIPK2, enhancing HIPK2 association with p53. HIPK2 is a tumor suppressor that can induce either proapoptotic or prosenescent posttranslational modifications of p53. NORE1A acts to suppress its proapoptotic phosphorylation of p53 but enhance its prosenescent acetylation of p53. Thus, we identify a major new Ras signaling pathway that links Ras to the control of specific protein acetylation and show how NORE1A allows Ras to qualitatively modify p53 function to promote senescence.

Abstract
Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is a tumor-suppressing response that must be disrupted for cancer to develop. Mechanistic insights into OIS have begun to emerge. Activation of the p53/p21(WAF1) and/or p16(INK4A) tumor-suppressor pathways is essential for OIS. Moreover, the DNA damage response, chromatin remodeling, and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) are important for the initiation and maintenance of OIS. This review discusses recent advances in elucidating the mechanisms of OIS, focusing on the roles of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/cellular homolog of murine thymoma virus AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathways. These studies indicate that OIS is mediated by an intricate signaling network. Further delineation of this network may lead to development of new cancer therapies targeting OIS.

Abstract
Cellular senescence, a stable proliferation arrest, is induced in response to various stresses. Oncogenic stress-induced senescence (OIS) results in blocked proliferation and constitutes a fail-safe program counteracting tumorigenesis. The events that enable a tumor in a benign senescent state to escape from OIS and become malignant are largely unknown. We show that lysyl oxidase activity contributes to the decision to maintain senescence. Indeed, in human epithelial cell the constitutive expression of the LOX or LOXL2 protein favored OIS escape, whereas inhibition of lysyl oxidase activity was found to stabilize OIS. The relevance of these in vitro observations is supported by in vivo findings: in a transgenic mouse model of aggressive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), increasing lysyl oxidase activity accelerates senescence escape, whereas inhibition of lysyl oxidase activity was found to stabilize senescence, delay tumorigenesis, and increase survival. Mechanistically, we show that lysyl oxidase activity favors the escape of senescence by regulating the focal-adhesion kinase. Altogether, our results demonstrate that lysyl oxidase activity participates in primary tumor growth by directly impacting the senescence stability.

Abstract
The tumor suppressor p16(INK4A) inhibits formation of enzymatically active complexes of cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) with D-type cyclins. Oncogenic stress induces p16(INK4A) expression, which in turn triggers cellular senescence through activation of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor. Subversion of oncogene-induced senescence is a key step during cancer development, and many tumors have lost p16(INK4A) activity by mutation or epigenetic silencing. Human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated tumors express high levels of p16(INK4A) in response to E7 oncoprotein expression. Induction of p16(INK4A) expression is not a consequence of retinoblastoma tumor suppressor inactivation but is triggered by a cellular senescence response and is mediated by epigenetic derepression through the H3K27-specific demethylase (KDM)6B. HPV E7 expression causes an acute dependence on KDM6B expression for cell survival. The p16(INK4A) tumor suppressor is a critical KDM6B downstream transcriptional target and its expression is critical for cell survival. This oncogenic p16(INK4A) activity depends on inhibition of CDK4/CDK6, suggesting that in cervical cancer cells where retinoblastoma tumor suppressor is inactivated, CDK4/CDK6 activity needs to be inhibited in order for cells to survive. Finally, we note that HPV E7 expression creates a unique cellular vulnerability to small-molecule KDM6A/B inhibitors.

Abstract
Mutational activation of K-Ras is a key genetic event involved in the initiation of pancreatic carcinogenesis. However, K-Ras generally fails to transform precursor lesions into invasive cancers due to activation of powerful fail-safe programmes that counteract transformation and growth. The importance of cellular senescence, a permanent cell growth arrest, is increasingly being recognised as a critical fail-safe programme in pancreatic carcinogenesis. Emerging evidence suggests that oncogene-induced senescence requires transcriptional induction of the CDKN2A gene locus as well as comprehensive chromatin modifications involved in epigenetic silencing of pro-proliferative genes. Moreover, recent work in pancreatic cancer mouse models proposes that inactivation of the CDKN2A tumour suppressor locus is the molecular switch required for senescence evasion and unleashed K-Ras driven malignant transformation in the pancreas.
