Caloric Restriction Intervention Alters Specific Circulating Biomarkers of the Senescence-Associated Secretome in Middle-Aged and Older Adults With Obesity and Prediabetes in an 18-Week Randomized Controlled Trial - PubMed

Caloric Restriction Intervention Alters Specific Circulating Biomarkers of the Senescence-Associated Secretome in Middle-Aged and Older Adults With Obesity and Prediabetes in an 18-Week Randomized Controlled Trial - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37738560/

Cellular senescence is a biological aging process that is exacerbated by obesity and leads to inflammation and age- and obesogenic-driven chronic diseases including type 2 diabetes. Caloric restriction (CR) may...

Caloric restriction in middle-aged adults with obesity and prediabetes significantly alters circulating SASP biomarkers, though T-cell senescence markers remain unchanged, indicating reduced senescent cell burden linked to weight loss.
