Organisms are often subjected to conditions that promote cellular stress. Cell responses stress include the activation of pathways defend against and recover from stress, or initiation programmed cell death eliminate damaged cells. One processes can be triggered under is transcription variation in number copies satellite DNA sequences (satDNA), which involved response mechanisms. Satellite DNAs highly repetitive tandem sequences, mainly located centromeric pericentromeric regions eukaryotic chromosomes, where they form constitutive heterochromatin. non-coding RNAs (satncRNAs) important regulators processes, their deregulation has been associated with disease. Also, these transcripts have stress-response mechanisms varied species. This review intends explore role satncRNAs when cells adverse conditions. Studying satDNA various deepening our understanding how could a key factor uncovering facts about functions sequences.

Abstract Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive oxygen-containing molecules generated as natural byproducts during cellular processes, including metabolism. Under normal conditions, ROS play crucial roles in diverse functions, cell signaling and immune responses. However, a disturbance the balance between production antioxidant defenses can lead to an excessive buildup, causing oxidative stress. This stress damages essential components, lipids, proteins, DNA, potentially culminating death. form of death take various forms, such ferroptosis, apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, paraptosis, parthanatos, oxeiptosis, each displaying distinct genetic, biochemical, characteristics. The investigation holds promise for development pharmacological agents that used prevent tumorigenesis or treat established cancer. Specifically, targeting key SLC7A11, GCLC, GPX4, TXN, TXNRD, represents emerging approach inducing cancer cells. review provides comprehensive summary recent progress, opportunities, challenges therapy.

The redox process and cellular senescence are involved in a range of essential physiological functions. However, they also implicated pathological processes underlying age-related neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Elevated levels reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated as result abnormal accumulation beta-amyloid peptide (Aβ), tau protein, heme dyshomeostasis is further aggravated by mitochondria dysfunction endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Excessive ROS damages vital components such proteins, DNA lipids. Such damage eventually leads to impaired neuronal function cell death. Heightened oxidative stress can induce via activation the senescence-associated secretory phenotype exacerbate inflammation tissue dysfunction. In this review, we focus on how changes system contribute AD affected perturbations metabolism mitochondrial function. While potential therapeutic strategies targeting have received some attention, more research necessary bring them into clinical application.

Myocardial fibrosis (MF) is a pivotal pathological process implicated in various cardiovascular diseases, particularly heart failure. Astragaloside IV (AS-IV), natural compound derived from Astragalus membranaceus, possesses potent cardioprotective properties. However, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying its anti-MF effects, relation to senescence, remain elusive. Thus, this study aimed investigate therapeutic potential and of AS-IV treating ISO-induced MF mice, employing transcriptomics, proteomics, vitro, vivo experiments. We assessed positive effects on using HE staining, Masson ELISA, immunohistochemical transthoracic echocardiography, transmission electron microscopy, DHE fluorescence staining. Additionally, we elucidated regulatory role through comprehensive transcriptomics proteomics analyses, complemented by Western blotting RT-qPCR validation pertinent pathways. Our findings demonstrated that treatment markedly attenuated myocardial injury oxidative stress, concomitantly inhibiting release SASPs. Furthermore, integrated analyses revealed mechanism was associated with regulating cellular senescence p53 signaling pathway. These results highlight exerts not only stress but also modulating
