Abstract
In a recent issue of Cell Press Blue, Zhang et al. identify two polyunsaturated lipids that selectively eliminate senescent cells by inducing ferroptosis, uncovering this iron-dependent cell death pathway as a new vulnerability for senescent cells. Their findings position ferroptosis induction as a promising strategy for targeting senescence and ageing-associated diseases.
