Resumen
Selective removal of senescent cells (SnCs) offers a promising therapeutic strategy to treat chronic and age-related diseases. Our prior investigations led to the discovery of piperlongumine (PL) and its derivatives as senolytic agents. In this study, our medicinal chemistry campaign on both the α,β-unsaturated δ-valerolactam ring and the phenyl ring of PL culminated in the identification of compound 24, which exhibited an impressive 50-fold enhancement in senolytic activity against senescent WI-38 fibroblasts compared to PL.
