Human diploid fibroblasts (HDFs) undergo a limited number of population doublings in culture before reaching the end of their proliferative life span, an event termed in vitro cellular senescence. Considerable evidence suggests that altered expression of key genes involved in the mitogenic response

Transcriptional activation of c-fos in response to both serum stimulation and D N A damage requires the serum response element. The inability of in vitro aged or senescent fibroblasts to proliferate in response to serum has been shown to be associated with repressed c-fos expression and reduced AP-1
## Abstract PKCα was found to be expressed (mRNA and protein) throughout the in vitro maturation of primary human erythroblasts but its activity (phosphorylation levels and nuclear localization) was consistently higher in cells derived from human neonatal rather than adult blood. Since the γ/γ + β
