August 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Senescent melanocytes in nevus skin boost hair growth.
This study observed that nevus melanocytes do not exhibit signs of senescence, suggesting that their growth arrest is due to cell interactions and not directly caused by BRAF activation.
This study suggests that the growth arrest of nevus melanocytes is not due to oncogene-induced senescence but rather to collective cell interactions, similar to those in normal tissue size regulation.
December 2014 in “TDX (Tesis Doctorals en Xarxa)” This study suggests that while cellular senescence impairs epidermal stem cells in aging, it also serves an essential role during embryonic development, highlighting its dual functional nature.

March 2015 in “Cell death and differentiation” This study found that H-Ras activation in aged mouse skin leads to increased dysplasia and progression to in situ squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting an age-linked connection between immune changes, senescence, and cancer risk.
