Abstract

Cellular senescence is a fundamental mechanism of ageing, characterised by stable cell cycle arrest and the acquisition of a pro-inflammatory secretory phenotype. Nutritional interventions are widely proposed to modulate ageing biology, but their effects on cellular senescence in humans remain unclear. We systematically synthesised evidence from interventional human studies assessing the impact of nutritional strategies on biomarkers of cellular senescence.

The following analysis is generated by AI and may contain errors. It is separate from the authors’ abstract and is not peer review.

Research summary

This systematic review synthesizes existing evidence on how nutritional interventions affect cellular senescence biomarkers in humans. The paper is relevant because it directly addresses a fundamental mechanism of aging (cellular senescence) rather than just treating downstream symptoms, although as a review of existing data, its primary contribution is consolidating knowledge rather than presenting a novel breakthrough.
