p63 deficiency activates a program of cellular senescence and leads to accelerated aging [PDF]
The p53 tumor suppressor plays a key role in organismal aging. A cellular mechanism postulated to drive the aging process is cellular senescence, mediated in part by p53.

Oxidative Stress-Induced Cellular Senescence in Aging Retina and Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Aging leads to a gradual decline of function in multiple organs. Cataract, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are age-related ocular diseases.

Airway Epithelium Senescence as a Driving Mechanism in COPD Pathogenesis
Cellular senescence is a state of permanent cell cycle arrest triggered by various intrinsic and extrinsic stressors. Cellular senescence results in impaired tissue repair and remodeling, loss of physiological integrity, organ dysfunction, and changes in

The light and shadow of senescence and inflammation in cardiovascular pathology and regenerative medicine [PDF]
Recent epidemiologic studies evidence a dramatic increase of cardiovascular diseases, especially associated with the aging of the world population. During aging, the progressive impairment of the cardiovascular functions results from the compromised ...

Role of hypoxia in cellular senescence
Senescent cells persist and continuously secrete proinflammatory and tissue-remodeling molecules that poison surrounding cells, leading to various age-related diseases, including diabetes, atherosclerosis, and Alzheimer’s disease.

Cellular senescence and aging: the role of B-MYB [PDF]
Cellular senescence is a stable cell cycle arrest, caused by insults, such as: telomere erosion, oncogene activation, irradiation, DNA damage, oxidative stress, and viral infection.

Endothelial toll-like receptor 4 maintains lung integrity via epigenetic suppression of p16INK4a. [PDF]
We previously reported that the canonical innate immune receptor toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is critical in maintaining lung integrity. However, the molecular mechanisms via which TLR4 mediates its effect remained unclear.

Biological effects of cigarette smoke in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells. [PDF]
The goal of the present study was to determine whether treatment with cigarette smoke extract (CSE) induces cell loss, cellular senescence, and extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis in primary human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Primary cultured
