New Key Publication: The chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin does not exacerbate p16Ink4a-positive senescent cell accumulation and cardiometabolic disease development in young adult female LDLR-deficient mice
Highlights
- Doxorubicin treatment induces acute gonadal white adipose tissue inflammation.
- DOX does not induce p16Ink4a+-senescent cells in young adult female Ldlr−/−-p16-3MR mice.
- DOX treatment results in a long-term reduction in gonadal white adipose tissue mass.
- Long-term cardiometabolic health in young adult female HFC-diet-fed mice is not affected by DOX.
- Clearance of p16Ink4a+-senescent cells does not improve diet-induced atherosclerosis.
