Abstract
Carboplatin (CPT) and paclitaxel (PCT) are the optimal non-surgical treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Although their growth-restricting influence on EOC cells is well known, their impact on normal peritoneal cells, including mesothelium (PMCs) and fibroblasts (PFBs), is poorly understood. Here, we investigated whether, and if so, by what mechanism, CPT and PCT induce senescence of omental PMCs and PFBs. In addition, we tested whether PMC and PFB exposure to the drugs promotes the development of a pro-cancerogenic phenotype. The results showed that CPT and PCT induce G2/M growth arrest-associated senescence of normal peritoneal cells and that the strongest induction occurs when the drugs act together. PMCs senesce telomere-independently with an elevated p16 level and via activation of AKT and STAT3. In PFBs, telomeres shorten along with an induction of p21 and p53, and their senescence proceeds via the activation of ERK1/2. Oxidative stress in CPT + PCT-treated PMCs and PFBs is extensive and contributes causatively to their premature senescence. Both PMCs and PFBs exposed to CPT + PCT fuel the proliferation, migration, and invasion of established (A2780, OVCAR-3, SKOV-3) and primary EOCs, and this activity is linked with an overproduction of multiple cytokines altering the cancer cell transcriptome and controlled by p38 MAPK, NF-κB, STAT3, Notch1, and JAK1. Collectively, our findings indicate that CPT and PCT lead to iatrogenic senescence of normal peritoneal cells, which paradoxically and opposing therapeutic needs alters their phenotype towards pro-cancerogenic. It cannot be excluded that these adverse outcomes of chemotherapy may contribute to EOC relapse in the case of incomplete tumor eradication and residual disease initiation. © 2023 The Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

Role of Telomere Length in Survival of Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Other Interstitial Lung Diseases. Biomedicines 2023; 11:3257. [PMID: 38137478 PMCID: PMC10741059 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11123257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) constitute a group of more than 200 disorders, with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) being one of the most frequent. Telomere length (TL) shortening causes loss of function of the lung parenchyma. However, little is known about its role as a prognostic factor in ILD patients. With the aim of investigating the role of TL and telomerase activity in the prognosis of patients affected by ILDs, we analysed lung tissue samples from 61 patients. We measured relative TL and telomerase activity by conventional procedures. Both clinical and molecular parameters were associated with overall survival by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients with IPF had poorer prognosis than patients with other ILDs (p = 0.034). When patients were classified according to TL, those with shortened telomeres reported lower overall survival (p = 0.085); differences reached statistical significance after excluding ILD patients who developed cancer (p = 0.021). In a Cox regression analysis, TL behaved as a risk-modifying variable for death associated with rheumatic disease (RD) co-occurrence (p = 0.029). Also, in patients without cancer, ferritin was significantly increased in cases with RD and IPF co-occurrence (p = 0.032). In relation to telomerase activity, no significant differences were detected. In conclusion, TL in lung tissue emerges as a prognostic factor in ILD patients. Specifically, in cases with RD and IPF co-occurrence, TL can be considered as a risk-modifying variable for death.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is still the leading cause of illness and death in the Western world. Cardiovascular aging is a progressive modification occurring in cardiac and vascular morphology and physiology where increased endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness are observed, generally accompanied by increased systolic blood pressure and augmented pulse pressure. The effects of biological sex on cardiovascular pathophysiology have long been known. The incidence of hypertension is higher in men, and it increases in postmenopausal women. Premenopausal women are protected from CVD compared with age-matched men and this protective effect is lost with menopause, suggesting that sex-hormones influence blood pressure regulation. In parallel, the heart progressively remodels over the course of life and the pattern of cardiac remodeling also differs between the sexes. Lower autonomic tone, reduced baroreceptor response, and greater vascular function are observed in premenopausal women than men of similar age. However, postmenopausal women have stiffer arteries than their male counterparts. The biological mechanisms responsible for sex-related differences observed in cardiovascular aging are being unraveled over the last several decades. This review focuses on molecular mechanisms underlying the sex-differences of CVD in aging.

Abstract
Although ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecological malignancies, there are still some issues that hamper accurate interpretation of the complexity of cellular and molecular events underlying the pathophysiology of this disease. One of these is cellular senescence, which is the process whereby cells irreversibly lose their ability to divide and develop a phenotype that fuels a variety of age-related diseases, including cancer. In this review, various aspects of cellular senescence associated with intraperitoneal ovarian cancer metastasis are presented and discussed, including mechanisms of senescence in normal peritoneal mesothelial cells; the role of senescent mesothelium in ovarian cancer progression; the effect of drugs commonly used as first-line therapy in ovarian cancer patients on senescence of normal cells; mechanisms of spontaneous senescence in ovarian cancer cells; and, last but not least, other pharmacologic strategies to induce senescence in ovarian malignancies. Collectively, this study shows that cellular senescence is involved in several aspects of ovarian cancer pathobiology. Proper understanding of this phenomenon, particularly its clinical relevance, seems to be critical for oncology patients from both therapeutic and prognostic perspectives.

Abstract
Research on the evolutionary and mechanistic aspects of aging and longevity has a reductionist nature, as the majority of knowledge originates from experiments on a relatively small number of systems and species. Good examples are the studies on the cellular, molecular, and genetic attributes of aging (senescence) that are primarily based on a narrow group of somatic cells, especially fibroblasts. Research on aging and/or longevity at the organismal level is dominated, in turn, by experiments on Drosophila melanogaster, worms (Caenorhabditis elegans), yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), and higher organisms such as mice and humans. Other systems of aging, though numerous, constitute the minority. In this review, we collected and discussed a plethora of up-to-date findings about studies of aging, longevity, and sometimes even immortality in several valuable but less frequently used systems, including bacteria (Caulobacter crescentus, Escherichia coli), invertebrates (Turritopsis dohrnii, Hydra sp., Arctica islandica), fishes (Nothobranchius sp., Greenland shark), reptiles (giant tortoise), mammals (blind mole rats, naked mole rats, bats, elephants, killer whale), and even 3D organoids, to prove that they offer biogerontologists as much as the more conventional tools. At the same time, the diversified knowledge gained owing to research on those species may help to reconsider aging from a broader perspective, which should translate into a better understanding of this tremendously complex and clearly system-specific phenomenon.

Abstract
The current review focuses on the connection of telomerase and telomeres with aging. In this review, we describe the changes in telomerase and telomere length (TEL) during development, their role in carcinogenesis processes, and the consequences of reduced telomerase activity. More specifically, the connection of TEL in peripheral blood cells with the development of aging‑associated diseases is discussed. The review provides systematic data on the role of telomerase in mitochondria, the biology of telomeres in stem cells, as well as the consequences of the forced expression of telomerase (telomerization) in human cells. Additionally, it presents the effects of chronic stress exposure on telomerase activity, the effect of TEL on fertility, and the effect of nutraceutical supplements on TEL. Finally, a comparative review of the chronographic theory of aging, presented by Olovnikov is provided based on currently available scientific research on telomere, telomerase activity, and the nature of aging by multicellular organisms.

Abstract
Telomeres represent the nucleotide repeat sequences at the ends of chromosomes and are essential for chromosome stability. They can shorten at each round of DNA replication mainly because of incomplete DNA synthesis of the lagging strand. Reduced relative telomere length is associated with aging and a range of disease states. Different methods such as terminal restriction fragment analysis, real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) and fluorescence in situ hybridization are available to measure telomere length; however, the qPCR-based method is commonly used for large population-based studies. There are multiple variations across qPCR-based methods, including the choice of the single-copy gene, primer sequences, reagents, and data analysis methods in the different reported studies so far. Here, we provide a detailed step-by-step protocol that we have optimized and successfully tested in the hands of other users. This protocol will help researchers interested in measuring relative telomere lengths in cells or across larger clinical cohort/study samples to determine associations of telomere length with health and disease.

Abstract
In contrast to the well-recognized replicative and stress-induced premature senescence of normal somatic cells, mechanisms and clinical implications of senescence of cancer cells are still elusive and uncertain from patient-oriented perspective. Moreover, recent years provided multiple pieces of evidence that cancer cells may undergo senescence not only in response to chemotherapy or ionizing radiation (the so-called therapy-induced senescence) but also spontaneously, without any external insults. Since the molecular nature of the latter process is poorly recognized, the significance of spontaneously senescent cancer cells for tumor progression, therapy effectiveness, and patient survival is purely speculative. In this review, we summarize the most up-to-date research regarding therapy-induced and spontaneous senescence of cancer cells, by delineating the most important discoveries regarding the occurrence of these phenomena in vivo and in vitro. This review provides data collected from studies on various cancer cell models, and the narration is presented from the broader perspective of the most critical findings regarding the senescence of normal somatic cells.

Shortening of telomere length by metabolic factors in diabetes: protective effects of fenofibrate. J Cell Commun Signal 2019; 13:523-530.

Abstract
People with diabetes mellitus have shorter telomeres compared with non-diabetic subjects. The aim of this study was to investigate an in-vitro model of telomere shortening under diabetes metabolic conditions. The mechanisms of the accelerated telomere length attrition and the potential telomere protective action of fenofibrate with related cellular mechanisms were also examined. Human dermal fibroblasts were passaged and cultured in normal (5.5 mM) or high (25 mM) D-glucose, across 7 days with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), glucosamine (GA), or glycated albumin (AGEs-BSA). Relative telomere length (RTL) was determined by qPCR. The expression of shelterin complex members which regulate telomere stability were measured by qRT-PCR and Western immunoblot. Culture in high glucose decreased RTL compared with normal glucose: H2O2 and GA lowered the RTL after 7 days (each P < 0.05 vs untreated control), whereas AGEs-BSA had no effect compared with control-BSA. At day 7 the mRNA levels of most shelterin complex members, were induced by H2O2 and to a lesser extent by GA. Trf1 and Trf2 protein were induced by H2O2. Co-treatment with fenofibrate (100 μM) significantly attenuated the reduction in RTL caused by H2O2 and GA and prevented Trf induction by H2O2. However knockdown of Trf1 and Trf2 expression using specific siRNA did not prevent H2O2 effects to lower RTL, thus implicating factors other than these Trfs alone in the fenofibrate protection against the H2O2 induction of RTL lowering. These in vitro findings demonstrate that diabetic conditions can induce telomere shortening and that fenofibrate has protective effects on telomere attrition, through as yet undefined mechanisms.

Maternal stress during pregnancy and small for gestational age birthweight are not associated with telomere length at 11 years of age. Gene 2019; 694:97-101. [PMID: 30738962 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2019.01.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2018] [Revised: 12/19/2018] [Accepted: 01/22/2019] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies indicate that low birth weight and exposure to maternal stress during pregnancy may result in shortened telomeres in infants. Shorter telomere length has in turn been linked with accelerated ageing and with age-related diseases. This study aimed to investigate the association between pregnancy and birth factors and relative telomere length in offspring at 11 years of age. METHODS Participants were aged 11 years enrolled in the Auckland Birthweight Collaborative Study at birth (n = 380). Half of the children were born small for gestational age (SGA = birthweight ≤ 10th percentile) and half were appropriate for gestational age (AGA = birthweight > 10th percentile). Maternal stress during pregnancy was assessed using the Perceived Stress Scale. Relative leukocyte telomere length (RTL) in leukocytes was measured at 11 years of age using quantitative real-time PCR. RESULTS RTL was normally distributed (mean = 3.78, SD = 1.05). There were no significant associations between RTL at age 11 years and birthweight, sex, maternal smoking, maternal stress during pregnancy or maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index. CONCLUSION At age 11 years, RTL did not differ between children by birthweight or pregnancy-related stressors. Further telomere-related studies in newborns, children and adolescents are merited to increase knowledge of potential telomere modulating factors.

Quiescent Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Are More Resistant to Heat Stress than Cycling Cells. Stem Cells Int 2018; 2018:3753547. [PMID: 30675168 PMCID: PMC6323451 DOI: 10.1155/2018/3753547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2018] [Revised: 08/20/2018] [Accepted: 09/26/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Quiescence is the prevailing state of many cell types under homeostatic conditions. Yet, surprisingly, little is known about how quiescent cells respond to environmental challenges. The aim of the present study is to compare stress responses of cycling and quiescent mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). Human endometrial mesenchymal cells (eMSС) were employed as adult stem cells. eMSC quiescence was modeled by serum starvation. Sublethal heat shock (HS) was used as a stress factor. Both quiescent and cycling cells were heated at 45°C for 30 min and then returned to standard culture conditions for their recovery. HS response was monitored by DNA damage response, stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS), cell proliferation activity, and oxidative metabolism. It has been found that quiescent cells repair DNA more rapidly, resume proliferation, and undergo SIPS less than proliferating cells. HS-enforced ROS production in heated cycling cells was accompanied with increased expression of genes regulating redox-active proteins. Quiescent cells exposed to HS did not intensify the ROS production, and genes involved in antioxidant defense were mostly silent. Altogether, the results have shown that quiescent cells are more resistant to heat stress than cycling cells. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) demonstrates that HS-survived cells retain differentiation capacity and do not exhibit signs of spontaneous transformation.

Abstract
Age is one of the biggest risk factors for ovarian cancer. Older women have higher rates of diagnosis and death associated with the disease. In mouse models, it was shown that aged mice had greater tumor burden than their younger counterparts when intraperitoneally injected with ovarian tumor cells. While very few papers have been published looking at the direct link between ovarian cancer metastasis and age, there is a wealth of information on how age affects metastatic microenvironments. Mesothelial cells, the peritoneal extracellular matrix (ECM), fibroblasts, adipocytes and immune cells all exhibit distinct changes with age. The aged peritoneum hosts a higher number of senescent cells than its younger counterpart, in both the mesothelium and the stroma. These senescent cells promote an inflammatory profile and overexpress Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs), which remodel the ECM. The aged ECM is also modified by dysregulated collagen and laminin synthesis, increases in age-related crosslinking and increasing ovarian cancer invasion into the matrix. These changes contribute to a vastly different microenvironment in young and aged models for circulating ovarian cancer cells, creating a more welcoming “soil”.

Abstract
Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells are considered as a perspective tool in cell therapy and regenerative medicine. Unfortunately, autologous cell therapy does not always provide positive outcomes in elder donors, perhaps as a result of the alterations of stem cell compartments. The mechanisms of stem and progenitor cell senescence and the factors engaged are investigated intensively. In present paper, we elucidated the effects of tissue-related O2 on morphology, functions, and transcriptomic profile of adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ASCs) in replicative senescence in vitro model. Replicatively senescent ASCs at ambient (20%) O2 (12-21 passages) demonstrated an increased average cell size, granularity, reactive oxygen species level, including anion superoxide, lysosomal compartment activity, and IL-6 production. Decreased ASC viability and proliferation, as well as the change of more than 10 senescence-associated gene expression were detected (IGF1, CDKN1C, ID1, CCND1, etc). Long-term ASC expansion at low O2 (5%) revoked in part the replicative senescence-associated alterations.

Abstract
Mesothelial cell (MC) senescence contributes to malignancy and tissue fibrosis. The role of telomere erosion in MC senescence remains controversial, with evidence for both telomere-dependent and telomere-independent mechanisms reported. Single telomere length analysis revealed considerable telomere length heterogeneity in freshly isolated human peritoneal MCs, reflecting a heterogeneous proliferative history and providing high-resolution evidence for telomere-dependent senescence. By contrast the attenuated replicative lifespan, lack of telomere erosion and induction of p16 expression in in vitro-aged cells was consistent with stress-induced senescence. Given the potential pathophysiological impact of senescence in mesothelial tissues, high-resolution MC telomere length analysis may provide clinically useful information.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) has many nephrotoxic effects and is a promising compound for the study of nephrotoxicity. Human renal proximal tubular cells (HKC) are an important model for the study of renal reabsorption, renal physiology and pathology. Since the induction of OTA in renal senescence is largely unknown, whether OTA can induce renal senescence, especially at a sublethal dose, and the mechanism of OTA toxicity remain unclear. In our study, a sublethal dose of OTA led to an enhanced senescent phenotype, β-galactosidase staining and senescence associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Cell cycle arrest and cell shape alternations also confirmed senescence. In addition, telomere analysis by RT-qPCR allowed us to classify OTA-induced senescence as a premature senescence. Western blot assays showed that the p53-p21 and the p16-pRB pathways and the ezrin-associated cell spreading changes were activated during the OTA-induced senescence of HKC. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that OTA promotes the senescence of HKC through the p53-p21 and p16-pRB pathways. The understanding of the mechanisms of OTA-induced senescence is critical in determining the role of OTA in cytotoxicity and its potential carcinogenicity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine if white blood cell (WBC) telomeres are shorter in Type 1 diabetes (T1D) than in subjects without diabetes (non-DB), and shorter in T1D subjects with vs. without vascular complications; and to determine associations with vascular biomarkers. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS WBC relative telomere length (RTL) was determined by quantitative PCR in a cross-sectional study of 140 non-DB and 199 T1D adults, including 128 subjects without vascular complications (T1DNoCx) and 71 subjects with vascular complications (T1DCx). Relationships of RTL with age, T1D duration, arterial elasticity, pulse pressure and vascular risk factors were determined. RESULTS RTL did not differ by gender within T1D and non-DB groups. Age-adjusted RTL was shorter in T1D vs. non-DB subjects (1.48±0.03 AU vs. 1.64±0.04 AU, p=0.002), but did not differ by T1D complication status (T1DNoCX 1.50±0.04 vs. T1DCX 1.46±0.05, p=0.50), nor correlate with arterial elasticity. Univariate analysis in T1D showed RTL correlated (inversely) with age r=-0.27, p=0.0001, T1D duration r=-0.16, p=0.03, and pulse pressure (r=-0.15, p=0.04), but not with HbA1c, BP, renal function (serum creatinine, ACR, eGFR), lipids, insulin sensitivity, inflammation (CRP, CAMs) or oxidative stress (OxLDL, OxLDL/LDL-C, MPO, PON-1). Multiple regression analysis showed independent determinants of RTL were age and T1D presence (r=0.29, p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS In this cross-sectional study telomeres were shorter in T1D. RTL correlated inversely with T1D duration, but did not differ by complication status and weakly correlated with pulse pressure and vascular risk factors. Only age and T1D were independent determinants of RTL. Longitudinal studies are merited.

Abstract
Age-associated changes in lung structure and function are some of the most important predictors of overall health, cognitive activities and longevity. Common to all aging cells is an increase in oxidatively modified DNA bases, primarily 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG). It is repaired via DNA base excision repair pathway driven by 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1-BER), whose role in aging has been the focus of many studies. This study hypothesizes that signaling and consequent gene expression during cellular response to OGG1-BER "wires" senescence/aging processes. To test OGG1-BER was mimicked by repeatedly exposing diploid lung fibroblasts cells and airways of mice to 8-oxoG base. Results showed that repeated exposures led to G1 cell cycle arrest and pre-matured senescence of cultured cells in which over 1000 genes were differentially expressed -86% of them been identical to those in naturally senesced cells. Gene ontology analysis of gene expression displayed biological processes driven by small GTPases, phosphoinositide 3-kinase and mitogen activated kinase cascades both in cultured cells and lungs. These results together, points to a new paradigm about the role of DNA damage and repair by OGG1 in aging and age-associated disease processes.

Abstract
Previously we demonstrated that endometrium-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMESCs) via activation of the ATM/p53/p21/Rb pathway enter the premature senescence in response to oxidative stress. Down regulation effects of the key components of this signaling pathway, particularly ATM and p53, on a fate of stressed hMESCs have not yet been investigated. In the present study by using the specific inhibitors Ku55933 and Pifithrin-α, we confirmed implication of both ATM and p53 in H(2)O(2)-induced senescence of hMESCs. ATM or p53 down regulation was shown to modulate differently the cellular fate of H(2)O(2)-treated hMESCs. ATM inhibition allowed H(2)O(2)-stimulated hMESCs to escape the permanent cell cycle arrest due to loss of the functional ATM/p53/p21/Rb pathway, and induced bypass of mitosis and re-entry into S phase, resulting in tetraploid cells. On the contrary, suppression of the p53 transcriptional activity caused a pronounced cell death of H(2)O(2)-treated hMESCs via autophagy induction. The obtained data clearly demonstrate that down regulation of ATM or p53 shifts senescence of human endometrial stem cells toward tetraploidization or autophagy.

Abstract
Downstream factors that regulate the decision between senescence and cell death have not been elucidated. Cells undergo senescence through three pathways, replicative senescence (RS), stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS) and oncogene-induced senescence. Recent studies suggest that the ataxia telangiectasia mutant (ATM) kinase is not only a key protein mediating cellular responses to DNA damage, but also regulates cellular senescence induced by telomere end exposure (in RS) or persistent DNA damage (in SIPS). Here, we show that expression of secretory clusterin (sCLU), a known pro-survival extracellular chaperone, is transcriptionally up-regulated during both RS and SIPS, but not in oncogene-induced senescence, consistent with a DNA damage-inducible mechanism. We demonstrate that ATM plays an important role in insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) expression, that in turn, regulates downstream sCLU induction during senescence. Loss of ATM activity, either by genomic mutation (ATM-deficient fibroblasts from an ataxia telangiectasia patient) or by administration of a chemical inhibitor (AAI, an inhibitor of ATM and ATR), blocks IGF-1-sCLU expression in senescent cells. Downstream, sCLU induction during senescence is mediated by IGF-1R/MAPK/Egr-1 signaling, identical to its induction after DNA damage. In contrast, administration of an IGF-1 inhibitor caused apoptosis of senescent cells. Thus, IGF-1 signaling is required for survival, whereas sCLU appears to protect cells from premature senescence, as IMR-90 cells with sCLU knockdown undergo senescence faster than control cells. Thus, the ATM-IGF-1-sCLU pathway protects cells from lethality and suspends senescence.

Specificity of cytochemical and fluorescence methods of senescence-associated β-galactosidase detection for ageing driven by replication and time. Biogerontology 2014; 15:407-13. [PMID: 24878779 PMCID: PMC4090812 DOI: 10.1007/s10522-014-9505-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2014] [Accepted: 05/12/2014] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) is a widely used marker of senescent cells in vitro and in vivo. In this report, young and senescent human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) and fragments of the omentum, from which these cells were isolated, were subjected to simultaneous examination of SA-β-Gal using two methods, i.e. cytochemical and fluorescent methods. The results obtained were confronted with the cumulative number of population doublings (CPD) and the calendar age of the tissue donor. The study showed that senescence of HPMCs proceeds with either an increased percentage of SA-β-Gal-positive cells or increased enzyme activity. Cytochemical SA-β-Gal staining in early-passage cultures negatively correlated with CPD values but not with donor age in both cell cultures and omentum specimens. Conversely, SA-β-Gal activity measured with the fluorescence method rose in proportion to the calendar age of the donor either in early-passage cultures or in primary cell isolates from omental tissue. At the same time it was not related to the CPD values. These findings may suggest that with respect to at least peritoneal mesothelial cells, the cytochemical and fluorescent methods of SA-β-Gal detection, though complementary, are informative for different levels of aging, i.e. the cytochemical approach for senescence in vitro and the fluorescence-based technique for organismal aging in vivo.

Synthetic resveratrol analogue, 3,3',4,4',5,5'-hexahydroxy-trans-stilbene, accelerates senescence in peritoneal mesothelium and promotes senescence-dependent growth of gastrointestinal cancers. Int J Mol Sci 2013; 14:22483-98.

Abstract
3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-Hexahydroxy-trans-stilbene (M8) is a synthetic resveratrol derivative, advertised as a candidate drug highly effective against numerous malignancies. Because multiple tumors prone to M8 frequently metastasize into the peritoneal cavity, this study was aimed at establishing the effect of M8 on the growth and senescence of human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs), the largest cell population within the peritoneum, actively involved in the intraperitoneal spread of cancer. The study showed that M8, used at the highest non-toxic dose of 10 μM, impairs proliferation and accelerates senescence in cultured HPMCs via an oxidative stress-dependent mechanism. At the same time, soluble factors released to the environment by HPMCs that senesced prematurely in response to M8 promoted growth of colorectal and pancreatic carcinomas in vitro. These findings indicate that M8 may indirectly—through the modification of normal (mesothelial) cells phenotype—facilitate an expansion of cancer cells, which challenges the postulated value of this stilbene in chemotherapy.

Abstract
Human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) dominate within the peritoneal cavity and thus play a central role in a variety of intraperitoneal processes, including the transport of water and solutes, inflammation, host response, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix remodeling. In addition, they contribute to the development of abdominal adhesions, peritonitis, endometriosis, cancer cell metastases, and peritoneal dialysis complications. For less than a decade the primary cultures of omental HPMCs have also been used as an experimental tool in studies on cellular aging. This paper provides the first comprehensive overview of the current state of art on molecular mechanisms underlying HPMC senescence in vitro. Special attention is paid to the causes of the very fast dynamics of HPMC senescence, and in particular to the role of non-telomeric DNA damage, the autocrine activity of TGF-β1, and the causative effects of oxidative stress. In addition, some clinical manifestations of HPMC senescence will be discussed, including its interplay with organismal aging, peritoneal dialysis, and cancer progression.

Abstract
Survivin is an essential component of the chromosomal passenger complex and a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis family. It is expressed at high levels in a large variety of malignancies, where it has been implicated in drug resistance. It was also shown previously that survivin is up-regulated during telomerase-mediated immortalization, which occurs at a relatively early stage during carcinogenesis. This study shows that up-regulation of survivin during immortalization of human myofibroblasts is an indirect consequence of the repression of p16(INK4a). Survivin and p16(INK4a) were functionally linked by assays that showed that either the up-regulation of survivin or repression of p16(INK4a) rendered telomerase-transduced MRC-5 myofibroblasts resistant to oxidative stress. Conversely, siRNA-mediated down-regulation of survivin activated caspases and enhanced the sensitivity of immortal MRC-5 cells to oxidative stress. The E2F1 transcription factor, which is negatively regulated by the pRB/p16(INK4a) tumor suppressor pathway, was implicated in the up-regulation of survivin. Using the ChIP assay, it was shown that E2F1 directly interacted with the survivin gene (BIRC5) promoter in cells that spontaneously silenced p16(INK4a) during telomerase-mediated immortalization. E2F1 binding to the BIRC5 was also enhanced in telomerase-transduced cells subjected to shRNA-mediated repression of p16(INK4a). Together, these data show that repression of p16(INK4a) contributes to the up-regulation of survivin and thereby provides a survival advantage to cells exposed to oxidative stress during immortalization. The up-regulation of survivin during immortalization likely contributes to the vulnerability of immortal cells to transformation by oncogenes that alter intracellular redox state.

Abstract
To assess the integrity of the peritoneal membrane, we characterized the functionality of the cellular components derived from peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE). About 3 % of all cells collected from the PDE attached to the plastic dish, and 97.1 ± 3.1 % of the adherent cells expressed CK-18 (PDE-HPMC). A typical cobble-stone-like morphology under neutralized PD solution was obtained over 65 out of 74 primary cultures (88 %) while only 53 % under acidic PD solution in a previous report by Yanez-Mo et al. However, 26.6 ± 10.3 % of PDE-HPMC expressed the EMT marker α-SMA. Transepithelial resistance (TER) as a marker of cell polarity was 34 % lower than that of omentum-derived(OM)-HPMC. We found a significant decrease in the rate of PDE-HPMC proliferation compared to OM-HPMC, accompanied by a significant increase of cell area within the tertiary passage. Comparison of TER, α-SMA and SA-β-Gal between CAPD durations suggests that cell polarity weakens with increased duration of CAPD, reflecting the occurrence of EMT and cell senescence. We conclude that functional characterization of cellular components in PDE reflects how well the peritoneum is preserved.

Abstract
After an exposure to ionising radiation, cells can quickly repair damage to their genomes; however, a few unrepairable DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) emerge in the nucleus in a prolonged culture and perpetuate as long as the culture continues. These DSBs may be retained forever in cells such as non-dividing ageing tissues, which are resistant to apoptosis. We show that such unrepairable DSBs, which had been advocated by the classical target theory as the 'radiation hit', could account for permanent growth arrest and premature senescence. The unrepairable DSBs build up with repeated irradiation, which accounts for an accumulated dose. Because these DSBs tend to be paired, we propose that the untethered and 'torn-off' molecular structures at the broken ends of the DNA result in an alteration of chromatin structure, which protects the ends of the DNA from genomic catastrophe. Such biochemical responses are important for cell survival but may cause gradual tissue malfunction, which could lead to the late effects of radiation exposure. Thus, understanding the biology of unrepairable damage will provide new insights into the long-term effects of radiation.

Abstract
Resveratrol (3,4',5-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene; RVT) is a natural phytoestrogen known to modulate the rate of senescence in cultured cells. The mechanism by which RVT affects this process is still elusive. In this paper we used human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) to examine the effect of RVT (0.5 and 10 μM) on their growth and senescence, with particular emphasis paid to parameters associated with oxidative stress. The results showed that RVT used at a concentration of 0.5 μM (but not at 10 μM) markedly improved HPMC growth capacity, as evidenced by elevated expression of PCNA antigen, augmented fraction of cells in the S phase of the cell cycle, and increased number of divisions achieved before senescence. These effects coincided with diminished expression and activity of senescence-associated β-galactosidase but were not associated with changes in the telomere length and an incidence of apoptosis. Moreover cells exposed to 0.5 μM RVT were characterized by increased release of reactive oxygen species, which was accompanied by up-regulated biogenesis of mitochondria and collapsed mitochondrial membrane potential. At the same time, they displayed increased activity of superoxide dismutase and reduced DNA damage (8-OH-dG and γ-H2A.X level). The efficiency of 8-OH-dG repair was increased which could be related to increased activity of DNA glycosylase I (hOgg1). As shown using RT-PCR, expression of hOgg1 mRNA in these cells was markedly elevated. Collectively, our results indicate that delayed senescence of HPMCs exposed to RVT may be associated with mobilization of antioxidative and DNA repair mechanisms.

Abstract
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) has been implicated in adhesion of colorectal and pancreatic cancer cells (of the SW480 and PSN-1 line, respectively) to the peritoneal mesothelium. It has been demonstrated that ICAM-1 expression increases with senescence in some cell types, however, the significance of this phenomenon in the context of malignant dissemination remains elusive. In this report we show that the adherence of SW480 and PSN-1 cells to senescent human omentum-derived mesothelial cells (HOMCs) in vitro is greater than to early-passage cells and that the effect is mediated by ICAM-1. Senescent HOMCs display increased expression of ICAM-1 mRNA and cell surface protein. The development of this phenotype is related to increased oxidative stress in senescent cells. The augmented ICAM-1 expression in HOMCs can be reduced by culturing cells with antioxidants; in contrast, exposure of HOMCs to an oxidant, t-BHP, leads to cellular senescence and increased ICAM-1 expression. The effect is partly mediated by activation of p38 MAPK and AP-1 signaling pathways. Finally, culture of HOMCs in the presence of a strong antioxidant, PBN, significantly reduces the senescence-associated increase in SW480 and PSN-1 cancer cell binding. These results indicate that increased oxidative stress and increased expression of ICAM-1 in senescent HOMCs may facilitate peritoneal adhesion of selected colorectal and pancreatic cancers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With aging, oxidative stress accelerates vascular endothelial cell (EC) telomere shortening-induced senescence, and may promote atherosclerosis in humans. Our aim was to investigate whether an antioxidant treatment combined with telomerase (hTERT) over-expression would prevent senescence of EC isolated from patients with severe atherosclerosis. METHODS Cells were isolated from internal mammary arteries (n=11 donors), cultured until senescence with or without N-acetylcystein (NAC) and infected, or not, with a lentivirus over-expressing hTERT. RESULTS Compared to control EC, hTERT-NAC cells had increased telomerase activity, longer telomeres and underwent more cell divisions. According to the donor, hTERT-NAC either delayed (n=5) or prevented (n=4) EC senescence, the latter leading to cell immortalization. Lack of cell immortalization by hTERT-NAC was accompanied by an absence of beneficial effect of NAC alone in paired EC. Accordingly, lack of EC immortalization by hTERT-NAC was associated with high endogenous susceptibility to oxidation. In EC where hTERT-NAC did not immortalize EC, p53, p21 and p16 expression increased with senescence, while oxidative-dependent DNA damage associated with senescence was not prevented. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that irreversible oxidative stress-dependent damages associated with cardiovascular risk factors are responsible for senescence of EC from atherosclerotic patients.

Abstract
Adhesion of ovarian cancer cells to the peritoneal mesothelium is a key step in the malignant progression of the disease. In an in vitro study, we showed that the adherence of ovarian cancer cells (of the OVCAR-3, SKOV-3, and A2780 cell lines) to senescent human omentum-derived peritoneal mesothelial cells (HOMCs) was greater than to early passage cells. The process was mediated primarily by the increased interaction of the alpha5beta1 integrin on cancer cells with HOMC-associated fibronectin (FN). In comparison with early passage HOMCs, senescent cells exhibited increased FN mRNA expression levels and produced significantly more FN. To assess the effect of senescence-associated oxidative stress on FN release, HOMCs were rendered senescent by exposure to an oxidant, tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Treatment with tert-butyl hydroperoxide resulted in a significant increase in HOMC FN mRNA and protein expression levels. The effect of oxidative stress on FN synthesis was found to be mediated by transforming growth factor-beta1, whose signaling pathway was controlled at upstream and downstream levels by p38 MAPK. The activity of p38 MAPK increased markedly in senescent HOMCs. Treatment of HOMCs with antioxidants significantly attenuated senescence-associated increases in p38 MAPK activity, production of both transforming growth factor-beta1 and FN, and ovarian cancer cell adhesion. These data indicate that oxidative stress that accompanies senescence may increase FN production by HOMCs and thus facilitate binding and dissemination of ovarian cancer cells.

Abstract
Both the ascites fluid-derived mesothelial cell line LP-9 and primary cultures of human omentum-derived mesothelial cells (HOMCs) are commonly used in experimental studies. However, they seem to have a different replicative potential in vitro. In the present study, we have attempted to determine the causes of this discrepancy. HOMCs were found to divide fewer times and enter senescence earlier than LP-9 cells. This effect was coupled with earlier increases in the expression of senescence-associated-beta-galactosidase and cell cycle inhibitors p16INK4a and p21WAF1. Moreover, almost 3 times as many early-passage HOMCs as LP-9 cells bore senescence-associated DNA damage foci. In sharp contrast to LP-9 cells, the foci present in HOMCs localized predominantly outside the telomeres, and the HOMC telomere length did not significantly shorten during senescence. Compared with LP-9 cells, HOMCs were found to enter senescence with significantly lower levels of lipofuscin and damaged DNA, and markedly decreased glutathione contents. In addition, early-passage HOMCs generated significantly more reactive oxygen species either spontaneously or in response to exogenous oxidants. These results indicate that compared with LP-9 cells, HOMCs undergo stress-induced telomere-independent premature senescence, which may result from increased vulnerability to oxidative DNA injury.

Abstract
Background Cellular senescence is a state reached by normal mammalian cells after a finite number of cell divisions and is characterized by morphological and physiological changes including terminal cell-cycle arrest. The limits on cell division imposed by senescence may play an important role in both organismal aging and in preventing tumorigenesis. Cellular senescence and organismal aging are both accompanied by increased DNA damage, seen as the formation of γ-H2AX foci (γ-foci), which may be found on uncapped telomeres or at non-telomeric sites of DNA damage. However, the relative importance of telomere- and non-telomere-associated DNA damage to inducing senescence has never been demonstrated. Here we present a new approach to determine accurately the chromosomal location of γ-foci and quantify the number of telomeric versus non-telomeric γ-foci associated with senescence in both human and mouse cells. This approach enables researchers to obtain accurate values and to avoid various possible misestimates inherent in earlier methods. Results Using combined immunofluorescence and telomere fluorescence in situ hybridization on metaphase chromosomes, we show that human cellular senescence is not solely determined by telomeric DNA damage. In addition, mouse cellular senescence is not solely determined by non-telomeric DNA damage. By comparing cells from different generations of telomerase-null mice with human cells, we show that cells from late generation telomerase-null mice, which have substantially short telomeres, contain mostly telomeric γ-foci. Most notably, we report that, as human and mouse cells approach senescence, all cells exhibit similar numbers of total γ-foci per cell, irrespective of chromosomal locations. Conclusion Our results suggest that the chromosome location of senescence-related γ-foci is determined by the telomere length rather than species differences per se. In addition, our data indicate that both telomeric and non-telomeric DNA damage responses play equivalent roles in signaling the initiation of cellular senescence and organismal aging. These data have important implications in the study of mechanisms to induce or delay cellular senescence in different species.

Abstract
Cellular senescence, first observed and defined using in vitro cell culture studies, is an irreversible cell cycle arrest which can be triggered by a variety of factors. Emerging evidence suggests that cellular senescence acts as an in vivo tumor suppression mechanism by limiting aberrant proliferation. It has also been postulated that cellular senescence can occur independently of cancer and contribute to the physiological processes of normal organismal aging. Recent data have demonstrated the in vivo accumulation of senescent cells with advancing age. Some characteristics of senescent cells, such as the ability to modify their extracellular environment, could play a role in aging and age-related pathology. In this review, we examine current evidence that links cellular senescence and organismal aging.

Abstract
Accumulation of DNA damage may play an essential role in both cellular senescence and organismal aging. The ability of cells to sense and repair DNA damage declines with age. However, the underlying molecular mechanism for this age-dependent decline is still elusive. To understand quantitative and qualitative changes in the DNA damage response during human aging, DNA damage-induced foci of phosphorylated histone H2AX (gamma-H2AX), which occurs specifically at sites of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and eroded telomeres, were examined in human young and senescing fibroblasts, and in lymphocytes of peripheral blood. Here, we show that the incidence of endogenous gamma-H2AX foci increases with age. Fibroblasts taken from patients with Werner syndrome, a disorder associated with premature aging, genomic instability and increased incidence of cancer, exhibited considerably higher incidence of gamma-H2AX foci than those taken from normal donors of comparable age. Further increases in gamma-H2AX focal incidence occurred in culture as both normal and Werner syndrome fibroblasts progressed toward senescence. The rates of recruitment of DSB repair proteins to gamma-H2AX foci correlated inversely with age for both normal and Werner syndrome donors, perhaps due in part to the slower growth of gamma-H2AX foci in older donors. Because genomic stability may depend on the efficient processing of DSBs, and hence the rapid formation of gamma-H2AX foci and the rapid accumulation of DSB repair proteins on these foci at sites of nascent DSBs, our findings suggest that decreasing efficiency in these processes may contribute to genome instability associated with normal and pathological aging.
