The light and shadow of senescence and inflammation in cardiovascular pathology and regenerative medicine [PDF]
, 2017 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 ...

Loss of histone macroH2A1 in hepatocellular carcinoma cells promotes paracrine-mediated chemoresistance and CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells activation [PDF]
, 2020 Rationale: Loss of histone macroH2A1 induces appearance of cancer stem cells (CSCs)-like cells in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). How CSCs interact with the tumor microenvironment and the adaptive immune system is unclear. Methods: We screened aggressive

Lipophilic Statins Eliminate Senescent Endothelial Cells by inducing Anoikis-Related Cell Death
Cells, 2023 Pre-clinical studies from the recent past have indicated that senescent cells can negatively affect health and contribute to premature aging. Targeted eradication of these cells has been shown to improve the health of aged experimental animals, leading ...

CDKN2A/p16INK4a expression is associated with vascular progeria in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
, 2017 Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) display a progeric vascular phenotype linked to apoptosis, cellular senescence and osteogenic transformation. This has proven intractable to modelling appropriately in model organisms.

Bone marrow senescence and the microenvironment of hematological malignancies [PDF]
, 2020 Senescence is the irreversible arrest of cell proliferation that has now been shown to play an important role in both health and disease. With increasing age senescent cells accumulate throughout the body, including the bone marrow and this has been ...

Senolytic drugs: from discovery to translation [PDF]
Journal of Internal Medicine, 2020 AbstractSenolytics are a class of drugs that selectively clear senescent cells (SC). The first senolytic drugs Dasatinib, Quercetin, Fisetin and Navitoclax were discovered using a hypothesis‐driven approach. SC accumulate with ageing and at causal sites of multiple chronic disorders, including diseases accounting for the bulk of morbidity, mortality ...

The Evolving Role of CD8+CD28- Immunosenescent T Cells in Cancer Immunology [PDF]
, 2019 Functional, tumor-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes drive the adaptive immune response to cancer. Thus, induction of their activity is the ultimate aim of all immunotherapies.

Recurrent pregnancy loss is associated with a pro-senescent decidual response during the peri-implantation window [PDF]
, 2020 During the implantation window, the endometrium becomes poised to transition to a pregnant state, a process driven by differentiation of stromal cells into decidual cells (DC).

Effects of senolytic drugs on human mesenchymal stromal cells
Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2018 Background Senolytic drugs are thought to target senescent cells and might thereby rejuvenate tissues. In fact, such compounds were suggested to increase health and lifespan in various murine aging models. So far, effects of senolytic drugs have not been

Novel treatment strategies for chronic kidney disease: insights from the animal kingdom [PDF]
, 2018 Many of the >2 million animal species that inhabit Earth have developed survival mechanisms that aid in the prevention of obesity, kidney disease, starvation, dehydration and vascular ageing; however, some animals remain susceptible to these ...
