The study goal is to assess the effect of senescent cell clearance on senescence burden, physical ability or frailty, and adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) functionality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
The proposed studies will examine cellular senescence and the effect of senolytic therapy on senescent cell burden, frailty, and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell function in individuals with diabetic chronic kidney disease.
