Senolytic Intervention Scheduling

Meaning

Senolytic Intervention Scheduling is the clinical strategy of timing the administration of senolytic agents—compounds designed to selectively induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in senescent cells—to maximize therapeutic efficacy while minimizing systemic burden. Senescent cells accumulate with age, secrete pro-inflammatory factors, and contribute to tissue dysfunction and hormonal decline. This scheduling is crucial because senolytic agents are often administered in short, intermittent cycles rather than continuously, reflecting a sophisticated approach to cellular longevity.
