miRNA expression programs jointly affect senescence and tumorigenesis. As cells become senescent, they express reduced levels of oncomiRs and higher levels of ts-miRs. This pattern of microRNA expression mirrors the expression needed to suppress tumorigenesis. We propose that aberrant changes in senescence-associated microRNA expression programs contribute to malignancy.
