Cellular senescence entails a state of an essentially irreversible proliferative arrest in which cells remain metabolically active and secrete range pro-inflammatory proteolytic factors as part the senescence-associated secretory phenotype. There are different types senescent cells, can be induced response to many DNA damage signals. Senescent accumulate tissues organs where they have distinct physiological pathological functions. Despite this diversity, all must able survive nondividing while protecting themselves from positive feedback loops linked constant activation response. This capacity requires changes core cellular programs. Understanding how cell undergo extensive their transcriptional programs, metabolism, heterochromatin patterns, structures induce common is crucial preventing cancer development/progression improving health during aging. In review, we discuss continuously evolve after initial highlight unifying features that define state.

Abstract Cancer development and its response to therapy are regulated by inflammation, which either promotes or suppresses tumor progression, potentially displaying opposing effects on therapeutic outcomes. Chronic inflammation facilitates progression treatment resistance, whereas induction of acute inflammatory reactions often stimulates the maturation dendritic cells (DCs) antigen presentation, leading anti-tumor immune responses. In addition, multiple signaling pathways, such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB), Janus kinase/signal transducers activators transcription (JAK-STAT), toll-like receptor (TLR) cGAS/STING, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK); factors, including cytokines (e.g., interleukin (IL), interferon (IFN), necrosis (TNF)-α), chemokines C-C motif chemokine ligands (CCLs) C-X-C (CXCLs)), growth factors vascular endothelial (VEGF), transforming (TGF)-β), inflammasome; well metabolites prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxane, specialized proresolving mediators (SPM), have been identified pivotal regulators initiation resolution inflammation. Nowadays, local irradiation, recombinant cytokines, neutralizing antibodies, small-molecule inhibitors, DC vaccines, oncolytic viruses, TLR agonists, SPM developed specifically modulate in cancer therapy, with some these already undergoing clinical trials. Herein, we discuss crosstalk between processes. We also highlight potential targets for harnessing cancer.

The recognition of DNA as an immune-stimulatory molecule is evolutionarily conserved mechanism to initiate rapid innate immune responses against microbial pathogens. cGAS-STING pathway was discovered important DNA-sensing machinery in immunity and viral defense. Recent advances have now expanded the roles cancer. Highly aggressive, unstable tumors evolved co-opt this program drive tumorigenic behaviors. In review, we discuss link between antitumor well cancer progression, genomic instability, tumor microenvironment, pharmacologic strategies for therapy. SIGNIFICANCE: defense infections. Given its role activating surveillance, it has been assumed that primarily functions a suppressor. Yet, mounting evidence suggests depending on context, signaling can also metastasis-promoting functions, chronic activation paradoxically induce immune-suppressive microenvironment.

Cells succumbing to stress via regulated cell death (RCD) can initiate an adaptive immune response associated with immunological memory, provided they display sufficient antigenicity and adjuvanticity. Moreover, multiple intracellular microenvironmental features determine the propensity of RCD drive immunity. Here, we provide updated operational definition immunogenic (ICD), discuss key factors that dictate ability dying cells response, summarize experimental assays are currently available for assessment ICD in vitro vivo, formulate guidelines their interpretation.

Low-grade inflammation is a hallmark of old age and central driver ageing-associated impairment disease1. Multiple factors can contribute to inflammation2; however, the molecular pathways that transduce aberrant inflammatory signalling their impact in natural ageing remain unclear. Here we show cGAS-STING pathway, which mediates immune sensing DNA3, critical chronic functional decline during ageing. Blockade STING suppresses phenotypes senescent human cells tissues, attenuates ageing-related multiple peripheral organs brain mice, leads an improvement tissue function. Focusing on brain, reveal activation triggers reactive microglial transcriptional states, neurodegeneration cognitive decline. Cytosolic DNA released from perturbed mitochondria elicits cGAS activity microglia, defining mechanism by engaged brain. Single-nucleus RNA-sequencing analysis microglia hippocampi gain-of-function mouse model demonstrates engagement sufficient direct states leading bystander cell inflammation, neurotoxicity impaired memory capacity. Our findings establish pathway as blockade potential strategy halt neurodegenerative processes age.
