Scientists examine how 'zombie' cells accumulate in the body
Original: Digging up the thread of ‘zombie’ cell accumulation
Research coverage is focused on senescent 'zombie' cells, which stop dividing but refuse to die and accumulate in tissues with age. These cells release inflammatory signals linked to ageing and disease, and scientists are exploring how they build up and whether clearing them could slow age-related decline.
Why now: Growing interest in ageing research and senolytic therapies keeps senescent cell biology in the news.
