New Immune Receptor Identified as Key Driver of Organ Aging
Stanford Medicine researchers have identified a primary driver of biological aging: the failure of tissue-resident macrophages to clear senescent, or “zombie,” neutrophils from the body. According to a study published July 16 in Science, blocking a specific pro-inflammatory receptor, EP2, on these immune cells rejuvenated organ function and reduced age-related frailty in mice. This discovery … Read more
