MicroRNA-16 mediates the regulation of a senescence–apoptosis switch in cutaneous T-cell and other non-Hodgkin lymphomas
Multiple sequential genetic and epigenetic alterations underlie cancer development and progression. Overcoming cellular senescence is an early step in cancer pathogenesis. Here, we demonstrate that a noncoding...
