Comparison of proliferation and genomic instability responses to WRN silencing in hematopoietic HL60 and TK6 cells.
Werner syndrome (WS) results from defects in the RecQ helicase (WRN) and is characterized by premature aging and accelerated tumorigenesis. Contradictorily, WRN deficient human fibroblasts derived from WS patients show a characteristically slower cell proliferation rate, as do primary fibroblasts an...
