Journal ArticleDOI

Clearance of p16 Ink4a -positive senescent cells delays ageing-associated disorders

TL;DR: Data indicate that cellular senescence is causally implicated in generating age-related phenotypes and that removal of senescent cells can prevent or delay tissue dysfunction and extend healthspan.
Journal ArticleDOI

Senolytics in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: Results from a first-in-human, open-label, pilot study.

TL;DR: The authors' first-in-humans open-label pilot supports study feasibility and provides initial evidence that senolytics may alleviate physical dysfunction in IPF, warranting evaluation of DQ in larger randomized controlled trials for senescence-related diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting senescent cells enhances adipogenesis and metabolic function in old age

TL;DR: This study indicates targeting senescent cells or their products may alleviate age-related dysfunction of progenitors, adipose tissue, and metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Senolytic drugs: from discovery to translation.

TL;DR: Early pilot trials of senolytics suggest they decrease senescent cells, reduce inflammation and alleviate frailty in humans, opening a new route for treating age‐related dysfunction and diseases.
