As the investigators note, the rapid age - related arterial stiffening and cardiac arrhythmias that appear to be at cause for the majority of deaths in BubR1H / H mice were not attenuated by ablating p16Ink4a - expressing senescent cells — but these tissues had little burden of such cells, so this finding reinforces the conclusion that the multiple aging phenotypes arrested in these mice when senescent cells were ablated is attributable specifically to the removal of their baleful influence on local tissues.

Thus, these animals exhibit premature cardiac arrhythmias and stiffening of the arterial wall, and cardiac failure appears to be the main cause of death; yet these tissues are not burdened with an abnormally - high burden of p16Ink4a - senescent cells, and accordingly, ablation p16Ink4a - positive senescent cells in these animals had little tissue - specific or survivorship phenotypic impact.
