Abstract Aging is characterized by systemic chronic inflammation, which accompanied cellular senescence, immunosenescence, organ dysfunction, and age-related diseases. Given the multidimensional complexity of aging, there an urgent need for a systematic organization inflammaging through dimensionality reduction. Factors secreted senescent cells, known as senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), promote inflammation can induce senescence in normal cells. At same time, accelerates immune resulting weakened function inability to clear cells inflammatory factors, creates vicious cycle senescence. Persistently elevated levels organs such bone marrow, liver, lungs cannot be eliminated leading damage aging-related Therefore, has been recognized endogenous factor elimination could potential strategy anti-aging.

Aging is a multi-factorial process developing through complex net of interactions between biological and cellular mechanisms it involves oxidative stress (OS) as well protein glycation. The aim the present work was to verify protective role Quercetin (Q), polyphenolic flavonoid compound, in d-Galactose (d-Gal)-induced model aging human erythrocytes. anion-exchange capability Band 3 (B3p) measured by rate constant SO42− uptake, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) levels—a marker lipid peroxidation—total sulfhydryl (-SH) groups, glycated hemoglobin (A1c), reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione (GSH-GSSG) ratio were determined following exposure erythrocytes 100 mM d-Gal for 24 h, with or without pre-incubation 10 µM Q. results confirmed that activated OS pathways erythrocytes, affecting both membrane lipids proteins, denoted increased TBARS levels decreased total respectively. In addition, led an acceleration uptake B3p. Both alteration B3p function damage have been improved pre-treatment Q, which preferentially ameliorated peroxidation rather than oxidation. Moreover, Q prevented A1c formation, while no effect on endogenous antioxidant system observed. These findings suggest could be novel potential target treatments counteract aging-related disturbances. Further studies are needed confirm possible pharmacological strategies against aging.
