mice than in humans, he says.

It should be noted, however, that while a study on senescent cell ablation in genetically
normal mice would provide at least some evidence on the effect of senescent cells (and their ablation) on promoting cancer, even such a study would likely show less effect
than could be anticipated in a large mammal model, since even normally - aging
mice rarely suffer metastatic
disease to the extent of aging humans, as sheer primary tumor volume is generally sufficient to be fatal to
mice.

mice in the control group, whereas the test subjects with ovary ARs still contracted the
