Key Points
- Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning can accelerate the process of finding new drugs
- AI has identified three promising candidates for senolytic drugs that slow aging and prevent age-related diseases
- Senolytics work by killing senescent cells, which can spread inflammatory proteins and contribute to diseases
- Only two senolytics have been tested in humans so far, but AI has identified 21 top-scoring molecules as potential senolytics
- Further testing showed that three of these compounds were able to eliminate senescent cells while keeping normal cells alive
- The interdisciplinary approach involving data scientists, chemists, and biologists has huge potential for finding treatments and cures for diseases
- The next results of testing these candidate senolytics in human lung tissue are expected in two years' time.

Researchers have used machine learning to identify potential senolytic drug candidates that could slow aging and prevent age-related diseases. Senolytics work by eliminating senescent cells, which are metabolically active but cannot replicate. These cells can cause damage by secre
An AI model has identified 21 molecules that have a high likelihood of being senolytics, which are compounds that can eliminate senescent cells. Testing these drug candidates on healthy and senescent cells revealed that three of them (periploc
