Senolytics

Senolytics are a class of drugs designed to target and eliminate senescent cells—aging cells that no longer function properly and can contribute to various age-related diseases. As we age, these cells accumulate in our tissues, leading to inflammation and harmful effects on healthy cells. By removing these senescent cells, senolytics aim to improve health, potentially extending lifespan and enhancing overall well-being. Research is ongoing to understand their effectiveness and safety, with the hope that they could play a significant role in combating age-related conditions.
