Con la edad, las células pueden experimentar senescencia, un estado en el que dejan de crecer, pero continúan liberando moléculas inflamatorias que degradan los tejidos. Cuando una persona es joven, el sistema inmunitario responde y elimina las células senescentes, a menudo llamadas células zombis. Sin embargo, las células zombis persisten y contribuyen a varios problemas de salud y enfermedades que se asocian con la edad. En dos estudios, los investigadores de Mayo Clinic explicaron la biología de las células que envejecen.
