In a new study published today in Nature Cell Biology, researchers from Prof. Valery Krizhanovsky introduced the possibility of treating age-related diseases by immunotherapy – the same kind of therapy that is currently revolutionizing the treatment of cancer: harnessing the immune


Congrats Julia Magdalena Majewska Amit Agrawal . Thanks Uri Alon for great collaboration.


Immunotherapy as an anti-aging treatment? Valery Krizhanovsky we show that immune checkpoint anti-PD-L1 can enhance the immune system to remove senescent cells & ameliorate age-related phenotypes! Amit Agrawal Uri Alon IdoAmitLab Weizmann Institute nature.com/articles/s4155…

📑: Julia Magdalena Majewska Amit Agrawal et al fr/Valery Krizhanovsky show that p16-expressing senescent cells enhance the stability of the immune checkpoint PD-L1, by downregulating its proteasomal degradation to accumulate in ageing and chronic inflammation. nature.com/articles/s4155…
