A new study identified two polyunsaturated fatty acids, α-eleostearic acid (α-ESA) and α-ESA methyl ester (α-ESA-me), that showed senolytic activity in cell cultures and a mouse model [1]. An anti-aging strategy Cellular senescence is one of the most critical aging-related processes. Senescent cells, which accumulate with age, are arrested in the cell cycle and are resistant...
Fatty acid chains
Scientists have found that the ratio between poly- and monounsaturated fatty acids affects the viability of T cells as well as both humoral and anti-tumor immunity [1]. The iron death Some fats are broadly recognized as healthy while others are considered unhealthy, but the reality might be more complicated than that. Poly- and monounsaturated fats...
