The Potential Benefits of Senolytics (Dasatinib and Quercetin) for Treating Osteoarthritis
Senolytics, a promising approach for osteoarthritis?
Senolytics like Dasatinib and Quercetin could offer a promising approach to treating osteoarthritis. These medications target senescent cells, also known as “zombie cells,” selectively killing them, potentially slowing down or even reversing the progression and symptoms of osteoarthritis.

Reduction of inflammation
Senolytics have the potential to reduce inflammation in the joints, a key factor in the development and progression of osteoarthritis By targeting senescent cells that contribute to inflammation, senolytics may help decrease pain and stiffness associated with the condition.
Improvement of Joint Function
By eliminating senescent cells, senolytics could improve the overall function of joints affected by osteoarthritis. This could lead to increased mobility and reduced disability, allowing individuals to maintain a higher quality of life.
Promotion of Cartilage Regeneration
Senolytics may stimulate the regeneration of cartilage, the tissue that cushions the joints. By removing senescent cells that inhibit cartilage repair, senolytics could potentially slow down the degenerative process and preserve joint integrity.
Slowing Disease Progression
By selectively targeting senescent cells, senolytics could slow down the progression of osteoarthritis, preventing further damage to the joints. This could delay the need for more invasive treatments, such as joint replacement surgery, and improve long-term outcomes for patients
While further research is needed to fully understand the efficacy and safety of senolytics for osteoarthritis, early evidence suggests that this approach holds promise for providing relief to individuals suffering from this debilitating condition.
