Abstract The aging of white adipose tissue (WAT) involves senescence of adipose stem and progenitor cells (ASPCs) and dysregulation of immune cell populations, serving as a major driver of age-associated adipose dysfunction and metabolic diseases. Conversely, the elimination of senescent ASPCs is associated with improvements in...
Abstract Older adults with cognitive impairment (CI) are twice as likely to fall compared to the general older adult population. Traditional fall risk assessments may not be suitable for older adults with CI due to their reliance on attention and recall. Hence, there is an interest in using objective technology-based fall risk assessment...
Abstract Normal aging is accompanied by broad loss of cognitive function in humans and rodents, including declines in cognitive flexibility. In extinction, a conditional stimulus (CS) that was previously paired with a footshock is presented alone. This procedure reliably reduces conditional freezing behavior in young adult rats....
Abstract Senescent cell number increases with age in different tissues, leading to greater senescent cell load, proinflammatory stress, and tissue dysfunction. In the current study, we tested the efficacy of senolytic drugs to reduce ovarian senescence and improve fertility in reproductive age female mice. In the first experiment,...
