Biomarkers of Cellular Senescence in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
In cohorts of lean controls, obese participants without Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and obese T2DM participants, we find that T‐cell expression of senescence biomarkers is altered only in the T2DM participants and not with obesity alone. Moreover, high T‐cell p16 expression in the T2DM participants is associated with impaired bone cortical indices.
