AI simplified

Abstract

As of January 2026, the SenNet Data Portal hosts 1,753 publicly available human and mouse datasets across 15 organs.

  • The portal provides open access to various data types, including single-cell, spatial, imaging, transcriptomic, and proteomic data.
  • It includes catalogs of senescence biomarkers and standardized protocols for identifying and characterizing senescent cells.
  • Experts from 13 Tissue Mapping Centers and 12 Technology Development and Application components collaborate to analyze data and identify biomarkers.
  • The platform supports integrated analysis and spatial context mapping, which may enhance aging research.
  • Current limitations involve the need for expanded spatial-omics releases and improved tools for characterizing senotypes.
