STEM-talk Podcast - EPISODE 122: JAMES KIRKLAND ON TARGETING SENESCENT CELLS TO REVERSE AGE-RELATED DISEASES

 IHMC STEM-Talk Podcast Episode 122

 

"As senescent cells build up in the body, they promote cellular aging and a host of chronic conditions related to aging, such as dementia, cancer, atherosclerosis, diabetes and arthritis. In today’s interview, we focus on Jim’s 2015 study where he and his colleagues at Mayo were the first to report on the potential of senolytic drugs to selectively kill zombie senescent cells. Jim’s paper in Aging Cell has been hailed as a major breakthrough in aging research."
