Rejuvenation of the aged brain immune cell landscape in mice through p16-positive senescent cell clearance

The authors discovered that proinflammatory senescent myeloid cells may recruit peripheral immune cells in the aged mouse brain. Their findings implicate senescent cell clearance as a strategy to counter aged brain inflammation and cognitive decline.
