Cellular Senescence Elimination refers to the targeted removal or functional neutralization of aged, non-dividing cells that have accumulated within tissues and secrete pro-inflammatory factors known as the Senescence-Associated Secretory Phenotype (SASP). In the sphere of hormonal health, this process aims to reduce chronic, low-grade inflammation that can impair the sensitivity and function of endocrine glands. Achieving this elimination supports tissue rejuvenation and optimizes the hormonal milieu for better function.
Origin
This concept merges “Cellular Senescence,” describing the irreversible arrest of cell division following stress or damage, with “Elimination,” indicating active removal via apoptosis or targeted clearance mechanisms. Its relevance in wellness science stems from research linking senescent cell burden to age-related decline in metabolic and reproductive endocrine axes. We seek to restore youthful cellular behavior by clearing these detrimental populations.
Mechanism
The primary mechanism involves pharmacological agents, often termed senolytics, which selectively induce programmed cell death in senescent cells by targeting their unique survival pathways, such as inhibiting anti-apoptotic proteins. Clearing these dysfunctional cells reduces the inflammatory cytokines they release systemically, thereby potentially improving the sensitivity of healthy endocrine cells to their respective ligands. This modulation indirectly supports robust hormonal signaling integrity.
