Cell Clearance
The branch of longevity research focused on clearing damaged or senescent cells, including the difference between the clearance process itself and the compounds designed to trigger it.
Senolytics (Cell-Clearance Technology)
The compound side of the cell-clearance story: senolytics are the agents designed to trigger senolysis by selectively clearing senescent cells.
Senolysis
The process term paired with senolytics: senolysis describes the actual clearing of senescent cells, not the compound being tested.
Senomorphics (SASP-Suppressing Technology)
The quiet-the-cell side of the cell-clearance story: senomorphics suppress the inflammatory SASP without killing the senescent cells senolytics are designed to clear.
