Cellular Senescence
Cellular senescence is the process by which an organism’s cells cease to divide. In the case of cellular senescence, as opposed to apoptosis, the cells are damaged but are not eliminated by the body.
Senescent cells are one of the hallmarks of aging and scientists are studying how to eliminate cellular senescence in the pursuit of curing underlying age-related disease.
