Cellular aging
Topic
Cellular aging, often studied as cellular senescence, is a biological phenomenon characterized by the permanent cessation of cell division. First described by Leonard Hayflick and Paul Moorhead in the 1960s, this process is triggered by factors such as telomere shortening, DNA damage, and metabolic stress. It plays a critical role in tumor suppression, tissue repair, and the overall aging process of living organisms.
