Deskripsi

Monitoring the aging process in vivo is challenging. Here the authors generate a Glb1 +/m‒Glb1-2A-mCherry (GAC) reporter mouse model, where the GAC signal is consistently correlated with established biomarkers of cellular senescence, cardiac hypertrophy and shortened lifespan, which may prove helpful for studies developing anti-aging interventions.
