Abstract excerpt
The growing burden of obesity- and aging-related diseases has hastened the search for governing biological processes. Cellular senescence is a stress-induced state of stable growth arrest strongly associated with aging that is aberrantly activated by obesity. The transition of a cell to a senescent state is demarcated by an array of phenotypic markers, and leveraging their context-dependent presentation is...
