Abstract Cellular senescence is a stable cell cycle arrest that can be triggered in normal cells in response to endogenous and exogenous stresses, including telomere dysfunction, oncogene activation and persistent DNA damage. Therefore, the identification, characterization, and pharmacological elimination of senescent cells have gained attention in the field of aging research. Cellular senescence occurs in […]

Abstract The objective of this investigation was the determination of the antimicrobial activity of a native plant from Patagonia Argentina Senecio neaei DC var. neaei (Asteraceae). Until the present day, no previous studies have been reported on the composition of the essential oil for this species of Senecio. The essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation […]
