  • METHYLATION SIGNATURE FOR REPLICATIVE SENESCENCE OF CELLS IN CULTURE
    Publication number: 20140170663
    Abstract: A method for determining a replicative senescence status of a cell includes determining a methylation status of at least one CpG-dinucleotide within a region of at least one of about 50,000 bp upstream and downstream of at least one CpG-dinucleotide selected from the group consisting of GRM7-CpG-site #1, CASR-CpG-site #1, PRAMEF2-CpG-site #1, SELP-CpG-site #1, CASP14-CpG-site #1, and KRTAP13-3-CpG-site #1. The methylation status of each of the at least one CpG-dinucleotide determined is compared with a reference methylation status of the respective CpG-dinucleotide.
