Cellular Aging

Cellular Aging explores the fascinating world of how our cells age and the profound impact this process has on our overall healthspan. The book delves into the concept of cellular senescence, a state where cells stop dividing but don't die, and how these senescent cells contribute to age-related diseases. One intriguing fact is the "Hayflick limit," the finite number of times a normal human cell population will divide before cell division stops. The book emphasizes that understanding cellular aging mechanisms is crucial for developing strategies to promote healthy aging and prevent age-related conditions.

The book progresses logically, starting with the historical context of cellular aging research and then moving into the major drivers of senescence, such as DNA damage, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. It examines the consequences of cellular senescence on various tissues and organs, linking cellular aging to diseases like cardiovascular disease and neurodegenerative disorders. Finally, it explores current therapeutic strategies targeting cellular aging, including senolytics and senomorphics, which aim to eliminate or modify senescent cells. This approach makes complex cell biology accessible, offering insights into potential anti-aging interventions.
