ABSTRACT Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is considered a progeroid disease (i.e., causing premature aging). This hypervariable affects multiple systems, such as the musculoskeletal, central nervous, gastrointestinal, and others. Despite advances in understanding underlying pathogenic mechanism of DM1, numerous gaps persist our understanding, hindering elucidation heterogeneity severity its symptoms. Accumulating evidence indicates that toxic intracellular RNA accumulation associated with DM1 triggers cellular senescence. These cells are state irreversible cell cycle arrest secrete cocktail cytokines, referred to senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP), can have harmful effects on neighboring more broadly. We hypothesize senescence contributes pathophysiology clearance senescent promising therapeutic approach for DM1. will discuss potential different senotherapeutic drugs, especially senolytics eliminate cells, senomorphics reduce SASP expression.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a prevalent and profoundly debilitating complication that afflicts individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM). These associated substantial morbidity, recurrence rates, disability, mortality, imposing economic, psychological, medical burdens. Timely detection intervention can mitigate the morbidity disparities linked to DFU. Nevertheless, current therapeutic approaches for DFU continue grapple multifaceted limitations. A growing body of evidence emphasizes crucial role cellular senescence in pathogenesis chronic wounds. Interventions try delay senescence, eliminate senescent cells (SnCs), or suppress senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) have shown promise helping wounds heal. In this context, targeting emerges as novel strategy comprehensive review, we look at pathology treatment systematic way. We also explain importance investigating SnCs highlight great potential senotherapeutics target treatment.

Metabolic disorders are considered the hallmarks of cancer and metabolic reprogramming is emerging as a new strategy for treatment. Exogenous endogenous stressors can induce cellular senescence; interactions between senescence systemic metabolism dynamic. Cellular disrupts homeostasis in various tissues, which further promotes senescence, creating vicious cycle facilitating tumor occurrence, recurrence, altered outcomes anticancer treatments. Therefore, regulation related secretory phenotypes breakthrough therapy; moreover, proteins involved associated pathways prospective therapeutic targets. Although studies on association tumors have emerged recent years, elucidation this complex correlation required comprehensive knowledge. In paper, we review research progress cell aging metabolism, focusing strategies targeting to modulate relevant context anti-tumor therapy. Finally, discuss significance improving specificity safety anti-senescence drugs, potential challenge

Supramolecular chemistry focuses on the study of species joined by non-covalent interactions, and therefore dynamic relatively ill-defined structures. Despite being a well-developed field, it has to face important challenges when dealing with selective recognition biomolecules in highly competitive biomimetic media. However, supramolecular interactions reside at core chemical biology systems, since many processes nature are governed weak, non-covalent, strongly contacts. Therefore, there is natural connection between these two research fields, which not frequently related or share interests. In this feature article, I will highlight our most recent results molecular biologically relevant species, following different conceptual approaches from conventional design elaborated receptors less popular combinatorial methodology. Selected illustrative examples other groups be also included. The discussion been focused mainly systems potential biomedical applications.

Recent emphasis on the design of drug delivery systems typically involves effective transport a pharmaceutical substance to disease site with desired therapeutic efficacy and minimal cytotoxicity. Organelle-targeted peptides have become an integral part designing important class prodrug/prodrug assemblies for new supramolecular therapeutics owing their favorable biocompatibility, synthetic ease, tunability aggregation behavior, functionalization site-specificity. However, it is still limited due low selectivity. We designed folic acid-functionalized β-cyclodextrin (FA-CD) as platform specific selective organelle-targeted (such microtubule, lysosome, mitochondria) peptide chemotherapeutics folate receptor (FR) overexpressing cancer cell lines. Low toxicity was found FA-CD inclusion complex in FR-negative normal cells, but superior inhibition tumor growth no vivo xenograft model.
