The cocktail of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and proteases secreted by senescent cells. SASP contributes to chronic inflammation, tissue dysfunction, and age-related disease. Clearing SASP-producing cells is the goal of senolytic therapies.
"SASP (Senescence-Associated Secretory Phenotype)" is filed under Pharmacology in the PeptideAtlas glossary, alongside 29 other terms in that group.
The proportion of a substance that enters the circulation when introduced into the body and is able to have an active effect. Different administration routes affect bioavailability.
