Description: | This was termed senescence-associated betagalactosidase or SA-β-gal. Our study revealed strong activity of SA-β-gal in UVB-irradiated HDFs, which, as one of the biomarkers of senescence, indicated that cells were induced to a senescencelike state by UVB exposure. As shown by PI staining and the annexin V method, we found UVB irradiation caused cell cycle arrest, with most HDFs being arrested on G0/G1 phase, and it might play a key role in aging process by initiating cell aging. |
