Abstract

Tracking of replicative senescence is of fundamental relevance in cellular therapy. Cell preparations - such as mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) - undergo continuous changes during culture expansion, which is reflected by impaired proliferation and loss of differentiation potential. This process is associated with epigenetic modifications: during in vitro culture, cells acquire senescence-associated DNA methylation (SA-DNAm) changes at specific sites in the genome. We have recently described an Epigenetic-Senescence-Signature that facilitates prediction of the state of cellular aging by analysis of DNAm at six CpG sites (associated with the genes GRM7, CASR, PRAMEF2, SELP, CASP14 and KRTAP13-3), but this has not yet been proven over subsequent passages and with MSCs isolated under good manufacturing practice (GMP) conditions.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 May 2014.
All research outputs
#13,175,249
of 22,754,104 outputs
Outputs from BMC Research Notes
#1,615
of 4,262 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#109,441
of 227,082 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Research Notes
#35
of 83 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,754,104 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,262 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 227,082 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 83 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% of its contemporaries.
