Researchers from the University of North Carolina Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center have developed a new method to visualize aging and tumor growth in mice using a gene closely linked to these processes in a study published in the January 18 issue of iCell/i. Researchers have long known that the gene, p16INK4a (p16), plays a role in aging and cancer suppression by activating an important tumor defense mechanism called 'cellular senescence'.

Luminescent Mice Used to Track Cancer and Aging in Real-time By UNC Researchers
