Abstract
Compounds of formula DCD-(I) suitable for activating invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) cells are provided. Such compounds according to certain embodiments activate iNKT cells and induce an increase in the production of one or more cytokines, such as IFNγ, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6 and TNFα. In some embodiments, activated iNKT cells are used to selectively reduce the presence of or eliminate inflammatory senescent cells, such as senescent cells having an inflammatory secretome (SASP). Methods for activating iNKT cells by contacting an iNKT cell with an amount of the subject compounds and selectively reducing the presence of or eliminating senescent cells with activated iNKT cells are also described. Compositions for practicing the subject methods are also described.
