Understanding Cellular Senescence and its Impact on Aging

Cellular senescence occurs when cells can no longer divide and replace themselves due to profound cellular stress, leading to resistance to apoptosis. This process is considered a hallmark of aging, contributing to damage accumulation and altered gene expression as we age. Senescent cells secrete molecules into the environment, affecting nearby healthy cells and potentially accelerating aging.
