Genetic clearance of p21-positive senescent cells accelerates fracture healing
Objectives: Age-related bone loss is driven by a process called cellular senescence. We recently demonstrated the transient appearance of senescent cells during fracture healing. These cells within the callus upregulate hallmarks of senescence, including expression of Cdkn1a (p21) and Cdkn2a (p16), [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
