Changes in the stem cell microenvironment upon DNA damage. Simplified schematic representation of the tissue microenvironment during homeostasis (Left) and inflammation (Right). DNA damage can impair tissue homeostasis by promoting senescence, cytokine and SASP release. Cytokines and chemokines present in the microenvironment can lead to recruitment of immune cells and activation of tissue-resident macrophages.
