The Cutting Edge of Senolytics: New Developments in Removing Harmful Senescent Cells
Senolytics are emerging as a promising anti-aging therapy. By selectively removing senescent cells that accumulate with age, senolytics aim to prevent or treat age-related diseases and extend healthspan. Recent studies have demonstrated senolytics can improve health in old mice and clinical trials show potential in humans. Here’s an overview of the latest senolytics news and what it could mean for the future.
Senescent Cell Burden Contributes to Obesity and Accelerated Aging
A pre-print study found that the senolytic navitoclax extended lifespan and reduced weight in obese mice. Mice treated...
