Cellular senescence in aging and age-related diseases: Implications for neurodegenerative diseases
Open accessAbstract
Aging is the major predictor for developing multiple neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) other dementias, and Parkinson's disease (PD). Senescent cells, which can drive aging phenotypes, accumulate at etiological sites of many age-related chronic diseases. These cells are resistant to apoptosis and can cause local and systemic dysfunction. Decreasing senescent cell abundance using senolytic drugs, agents that selectively target these cells, alleviates neurodegenerative diseases in preclinical models. In this review, we consider roles of senescent cells in neurodegenerative diseases and potential implications of senolytic agents as an innovative treatment.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Recent evidence suggests that the accumulation of senescent cells, which can release a variety of pro-inflammatory, apoptotic, and toxic by-products, called the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), is one of the drivers of deficits in both cognition11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and mobility.7,17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
