Cellular senescence, the permanent state of cell-cycle arrest, is emerging as an intrinsic barrier against tumorigenesis and a mechanism contributing to organismal ageing. Unexpected findings now identify multiple secreted inflammatory cytokines, their cognate receptors and positive-feedback loops with corresponding transcription factors, as key mediators of both oncogene-induced and replicative senescence.
