When cells experience enough chronic stress, they can stop dividing permanently. In this state of cellular limbo, known as replicative senescence, cells remain alive but no longer proliferate.

In Aging Cell, researchers have described the differences between primary and secondary senescent cells, comparing radiation-induced senescence to senescence induced by the senescence-associated ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered how molecular "traffic controllers" in cells influence aging and cellular senescence—a state where cells stop dividing but remain metabolically active.

A new review was published in Volume 18 of Aging on May 30, 2026, titled "The love and hate relationship between cellular senescence and stemness." The review was led by first author Angelos ...

For some, January is a time for resolutions, with the goal often tied to being fitter and healthier. And increasingly this has included a fixation on addressing aging at the cellular level, driven in ...

What if a process we associate with aging actually helps the body heal? A study led by Mikolaj Ogrodnik, LBI Trauma, published in Nature Cell Biology, shows that cells enter a state of senescence ...

A new research paper was published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on February 10, 2026, titled "Aging-associated mitochondrial circular RNAs." Led by first author Hyejin Mun from the University of Oklahoma ...

“Our work highlights the need to study polyploidy and senescence in concert to understand their roles in aging, cancer, and therapeutic resistance.” “Our work highlights the need to study polyploidy ...

The immune system acts as a critical sentinel of organismal aging, integrating the sensing of physiological states with the execution of defense and clearance functions. Immunosenescence not only ...
