Cellular senescence as a mediator of mitochondrial dysfunction-induced aging
Description: NARRATIVE Dysfunctional mitochondria are thought to be an underlying cause of many of the disorders associated with aging. This study will determine how the cellular damage response known as cellular senescence links mitochondrial dysfunction to aging, and will test whether interventions designed to prevent or eliminate senescent cells can prevent the phenotypes associated with aging.
