Over the human lifespan, our cells encounter numerous stressors that can trigger an intrinsic defense mechanism called cellular senescence. Cellular senescence is characterized by irreversible growth arrest and can act as a safeguard against cancer. However, when senescent cells accumulate in various tissues as we age, it can contribute to tissue degeneration and chronic diseases. 

The senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), a hallmark of senescent cells, plays a critical role by secreting inflammatory factors, proteases, and growth factors, disrupting tissue balance and fueling pathological conditions. Consequently, selectively eliminating senescent cells has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy, potentially restoring tissue function and mitigating age-related disorders.

About Aging-US

The mission of the journal is to understand the mechanisms surrounding aging and age-related diseases, including cancer as the main cause of death in the modern aged population.

The journal aims to promote 1) treatment of age-related diseases by slowing down aging, 2) validation of anti-aging drugs by treating age-related diseases, and 3) prevention of cancer by inhibiting aging. (Cancer and COVID-19 are age-related diseases.)

Aging (Aging-US)

Links Between Exercise, Senescence, and Lung Health

Aging-US is dedicated to advancing our understanding of the biological mechanisms that drive aging and the development of age-related diseases. Our mission is to serve as a platform for high-quality research that uncovers the cellular, molecular, and systemic processes underlying aging, and translates these insights into strategies to extend healthspan and delay the onset of chronic disease.
