Homeostatic imbalance between apoptosis and cell renewal in the liver of premature aging Xpd mice.

Homeostatic imbalance between apoptosis and cell renewal in the liver of premature aging Xpd mice.

Unrepaired or misrepaired DNA damage has been implicated as a causal factor in cancer and aging. Xpd(TTD) mice, harboring defects in nucleotide excision repair and transcription due to a mutation in the Xpd gene (R722W), display severe symptoms of premature aging but have a reduced incidence of canc...
