Cellular Waste Clearance

Meaning

Cellular Waste Clearance refers to the essential physiological processes responsible for identifying, packaging, and eliminating damaged organelles, misfolded proteins, and other metabolic byproducts from within the cell. This fundamental housekeeping function is crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis, preventing the accumulation of toxic aggregates, and supporting optimal hormonal signaling. Deficiencies in this clearance mechanism are intrinsically linked to cellular aging and dysfunction.
