Scientists identified a cellular recycling failure that may explain why the body struggles to clear “zombie cells” as it gets ...

In humans and other multicellular organisms, cells multiply. This defining feature allows embryos to grow into adulthood, and enables the healing of the many bumps, bruises and scrapes along the way.

Researchers restored cellular recycling in aged mice using the CMA activator CA77.1. The treatment reduced senescent cell ...

Researchers studying ageing in mice have found that a decline in chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), a cellular recycling ...

What is happening in your skin before you notice 'more dark spots'Before you look in the mirror to check for changes in dark spots or firmness.Deep within your skin, cells that have been subjected to ...

Researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine have identified a cellular recycling pathway whose age-related decline allows senescent 'zombie' cells to evade immune clearance.

As we grow older, our bodies accumulate "zombie cells"—living cells that have stopped dividing or functioning normally—but ...

Senescent cells - cells that have stopped dividing but remain metabolically active - can accumulate with age and contribute to chronic inflammation and tissue dysfunction. A new Mini Review in ...

A new research paper was published in Volume 17, Issue 8 of Aging-US on August 7, 2025, titled "Senescent cell heterogeneity and responses to senolytic treatment are related to cell cycle status ...

A research team led by Professor Takuya Yamamoto (Department of Life Science Frontiers) and Professor Yasuhiro Yamada at the University of Tokyo has developed a novel in vivo system that reveals how ...

When it comes to treating disease, one promising avenue is addressing the presence of senescent cells. These cells—also known as "zombie cells"—stop dividing but don't die off as cells typically do.
