Targeting senescent cells alleviates obesity‐induced metabolic dysfunction

Adipose tissue inflammation and dysfunction are associated with obesity‐related insulin resistance and diabetes, but mechanisms underlying this relationship are unclear. Although senescent cells accumulate in adipose tissue of obese humans and rodents, a direct pathogenic role for these cells in the development of diabetes remains to be demonstrated. Here, we show that reducing senescent cell burden in obese mice, either by activating...
