Significance The naked mole rat is a longest lived and cancer-resistant rodent. Tumor resistance in the mediated by signals from extracellular matrix component hyaluronan triggering induction of INK4 (inhibitors cyclin dependent kinase 4) locus expression. human mouse encodes three critical tumor-suppressor proteins, p15 INK4b , ARF (alternate reading frame), p16 INK4a which are among most frequently mutated cancer. Furthermore, implicated aging senescence. Here, we show that an additional...
