Aging-related processes such as cellular senescence are believed to underlie the accumulation of diseases in time, causing (co-)morbidity, including cancer, thromboembolism and stroke. Intervening into these processes may delay, stop or reverse morbidity. To study the link between (co-)morbidity and aging, by exploring biomarkers and molecular mechanisms of disease-triggered deterioration, we will recruit 50 patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, 50 patients with (thromboembolic) ischem...
