Local clearance of senescent cells attenuates the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis and creates a pro-regenerative environment

This 2017 study by Jeon et al. investigated the role of senescent cells (SnCs) in the progression of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (OA) using a p16-3MR transgenic mouse model. Following anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT), SnCs accumulated in the articular cartilage and synovium. Selective elimination of these cells, either genetically or via

The effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on the pathophysiology of skin aging: a prospective clinical trial

This prospective clinical trial investigated the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on skin aging in a healthy aging population. Participants underwent a three-month control period followed by three months of daily HBOT sessions, with skin biopsies taken at baseline, post-control, and post-HBOT. Findings showed significant increases in collagen density
