Senescence in Skin Aging — How Qualia Senolytic May Support Skin Youthfulness

Cellular senescence is a state of irreversible growth arrest that turns functional cells into “zombie cells”—cells that are unable to divide and proliferate, but also resistant to cell death. Senescence changes cells’ characteristics, functions, and the set of molecules they secrete. Molecules released by senescent cells are collectively known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP)
