Cellular senescence is a principle causative factor in organismal aging and facilitates aging-associated diseases.
This mechanism explains why aging tissues accumulate damage. Interventions targeting senescent cells (senolytics) are being researched to mitigate age-related diseases, though specific protocols are not detailed in this text.
StrongSupportsVERY_HIGH confidence
Cellular senescence, with major effects on the maintenance of normal tissue homeostasis, as well as pathological conditions, is a principle causative factor in the organismal aging process and facilitates aging and aging-associated diseases.
Why this rating
High-level consensus in the field, cited extensively in the review.
