Why We Age – New Cause
New research from the University of Southern California (USC) Viterbi School of Engineering (reported in Science Daily).
They are looking at senescence to selectively eliminate them and promote longer healthier aging.
Focused on “senescence” – the process in which normal cells stop dividing (i.e. creating new cells).
Senescence is a key cause of, among others, arthritis, heart disease, and osteoporosis.
Research centered on epithelial cells, these cells are where most cancers occur.
