Senolytic Therapy Applications

Meaning

Senolytic Therapy Applications refer to the clinical use of specific compounds or interventions designed to selectively induce apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in senescent cells. These “zombie cells” accumulate with age, secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines, and contribute significantly to chronic inflammation and tissue dysfunction, which in turn disrupt hormonal signaling. The therapeutic goal is to clear this senescent cell burden to reduce the inflammatory load, rejuvenate tissue microenvironments, and thereby improve overall hormonal and metabolic health. This is a frontier approach in longevity medicine.
