Senescence identification is rendered challenging due to a lack of universally available biomarkers. This represents a bottleneck in efforts to develop pro-senescence therapeutics – agents designed to induce the arrest of cellular proliferation associated with a senescence response in cancer cells for therapeutic gain.
