| More Details: |
Removal of senescent cells rejuvenates lungs of aged mice. Here the authors show that elimination of senescent cells using either genetic or pharmacological means improves lung function and physical health in a mouse model of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), suggesting potential therapy for treatment of human IPF. |
