Exploiting Senescence Associated β-Galactosidase to Selectively Destroy Senescent Cells

The accumulation of senescent cells with age is an important contributing cause of aging. Senescent cells are created constantly in the body, as somatic cells reach the Hayflick limit, or as a result of injury or toxins or potentially cancerous molecular damage. Near all either quickly self-destruct or are destroyed by the immune system, but a small fraction linger to cause harm over the long term. Senescent cells secrete a potent inflammatory mix of molecules that rouses the immune system to chronic inflammation, degrades nearby tissue structure, and changes the behavior of normal cells for the worse. The more senescent cells present in tissue, the worse the outcome. Means to selectively remove 25% to 50% of senescent cells, and in only some tissues, reliably reverse aspects
