Cellular Senescence in Cardiovascular Diseases: Potential Age-Related Mechanisms and Implications for Treatment
1 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
The aging process is associated with a loss of complexity in the dynamics of physiological systems that reduce the ability to adapt to stress, causing frailty and/or age-related diseases. At the cellular level, proliferative and/or oxidative-stress induced cell senescence associated with a pro-inflammatory state may greatly contribute to age-associated impaired tissue and organ functions. Senescence of...
