claim
In 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.
