摘要：

Telomere shortening is the mechanism underlying replicative aging in fibroblasts. A variety of reports now claim that inactivation of the p16(INK4a)/pRB pathway is required in addition to telomere maintenance for the immortalization of cells such as skin keratinocytes and breast epithelial cells. We here show that the premature growth arrest of these cell types can be explained by an inadequate culture environment. Providing mesenchymal/epithelial interactions by cultivating the telomerase-expressing cells on feeder layers avoids the growth arrest associated with increased p16(INK4a). These results do not support a telomere-independent mechanism of replicative aging.
