DLK/JNK3 Upregulation Aggravates Hair Cell Senescence in Mice Cochleae via Excessive Autophagy

Aging Cell, EarlyView.
In normal physiological processes, autophagy acts as a protective factor against aging stress. With the stress increase, the DLK/JNK3 pathway is activated and autophagy is continuously upregulated. In our study, excessive autophagy leads to hair cell senescence, which reveals that excessive autophagy can play a harmful role in senescence under certain ...
