Abstract

High salt (HS) intake is a known cardiovascular risk factor, yet the mechanisms linking salt intake to endothelial dysfunction remain unclear. We investigated whether HS induces vascular senescence and dysfunction, and whether targeting senescent cells could prevent these effects.

Research summary

High salt intake induces endothelial dysfunction through the mechanism of cellular senescence. This paper is relevant as it explores the underlying mechanisms of aging-related vascular dysfunction, which is a critical aspect of longevity research.
