Cellular Senescence

Permanent cell cycle arrest contributing to aging.

What is Cellular Senescence?

Cellular senescence is a state of irreversible cell cycle arrest. Senescent cells accumulate with age and secrete pro-inflammatory factors (SASP). Senolytic compounds — including peptides like FOXO4-DRI — selectively clear them.
