Senescent cells are linked to inflammation because they secrete pro-inflammatory factors such as the Senescence-Associated Secretory Phenotype (SASP) [1], and their accumulation is a known driver of chronic inflammation in aging and disease {fact:2, fact:3}. Conversely, reducing the accumulation of senescent cells can directly decrease inflammation [2].

claimCellular senescence can cause inflammation and metabolic disturbances associated with obesity, and the elimination of senescent cells with senolytic interventions may help improve obesity clinically.
claimThe accumulation of senescent cells (SCs) during ageing accelerates the onset of ageing-related disorders and chronic diseases, including metabolic disorders, degenerative disorders, inflammation, autoimmune diseases, and cancers.
claimIn chronic wounds, the interaction between senescent cells and the extracellular matrix is a barrier to healing because senescent cells produce Senescence-Associated Secretory Phenotype (SASP) factors and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), which increase matrix proteolysis, cause inflammation, impair vascular endothelial cells, and create a microenvironment that accelerates further cellular senescence.
