Senolytic Therapy
Also known as: Senescent cell clearance, Zombie cell therapy
Senolytic therapy aims to selectively eliminate senescent (aged, dysfunctional) cells that accumulate with age and contribute to inflammation and tissue dysfunction. This emerging longevity intervention targets a fundamental mechanism of aging.

How It Works
Senolytic agents (like dasatinib + quercetin, fisetin, or navitoclax) trigger apoptosis in senescent cells while sparing healthy cells. Clearing these cells may reduce the inflammatory "SASP" (senescence-associated secretory phenotype).
What It Addresses
This treatment is commonly used for the following health goals and conditions:
Typical Protocol
Often administered in "hit-and-run" fashion: intensive treatment for a few days, repeated every few weeks to months. Specific protocols vary by clinic and agents used.
Evidence & Research
Exciting preclinical results in mice showing lifespan extension and improved healthspan. Human trials are in early stages. The Mayo Clinic and others are conducting clinical research.
Potential Considerations
Potential Risks
Potential drug interactions, effects on wound healing, possible platelet reduction. Long-term effects in humans unknown.
Contraindications
This treatment may not be suitable for individuals with:
- Active cancer treatment
- Bleeding disorders
- Upcoming surgeries
