| abstractText | Fibroblast-like cells were isolated from the senescence accelerated mouse (SAM) and cultured, after which evidence of accelerated senescence was sought. Fibroblast-like cell lines were established from the dorsal dermis of neonate mice of both the accelerated senescence-prone strain, SAMP11 and the accelerated senescence-resistant strain, SAMR1. All cell lines from both strains showed a crisis in growth and were immortalized. At crisis, all cultures were composed of morphologically characteristic senescent cells. However, in cell lines from SAMP11, this change was more rapid and at earlier population doublings (PDs) than seen in cell lines from SAMR1. Crises (SAMP11; SAMR1) were also operationally taken to be the point of the least change in PDs (11.2 +/- 1.1; 15.4 +/- 0.5 PDs), the least saturation density (11.3 +/- 0.8; 19.1 +/- 2.6 PDs), and the longest population doubling time (10.1 +/- 0.8; 14.2 +/- 0.6 PDs). Crisis occurred significantly earlier (P < 0.05) and the aging process was accelerated in cell lines from SAMP11, compared with lines from SAMR1. This evidence tends to support various observations made in the accelerated senescence-prone strains of SAMP, in vivo. |
