Small Extracellular Vesicles Found to Spread Cellular Senescence in Models of Aging
BUFFALO, NY — October 29, 2026 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 18 of Aging on October 8, 2026, titled “Small extracellular vesicles as mediators of paracrine senescence in cellular models of aging.” The study found that small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) released by senescent cells can transmit signals that promote senescence in neighboring cells. Using human cellular models of aging, the researchers demonstrated that these membrane-enclosed particles could trigger cell-cycle arrest and DNA damage responses without activating the classical inflammatory pathways associated…
