Oncogene-Induced Senescence: Tumor Suppressor or Promoter?

Medicine & Health Aging Longevity

Mechanism: Oncogenic KRAS activation induces senescent cells, which release pro-inflammatory SASP factors like IL-6 and IL-1β, driving mTORC1 activity and creating a pro-aging environment. Readout: Readout: Rapamycin intervention reduces SASP and mTORC1 activity, leading to a visible decrease in the 'Aging Score' and a '+15% Longevity' increase on the 'Lifespan Bar'.

Exploring mechanisms and implications for aging biology. What evidence supports this, and how could we test it?
