Abstract

Skin aging represents a multifactorial process influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors, collectively known as the skin exposome. Cellular senescence, characterized by stable cell cycle arrest and secretion of pro-inflammatory molecules, has been implicated as a key driver of physiological and pathological skin aging. Increasing evidence points towards the role of senescence in a variety of dermatological diseases, where the accumulation of senescent cells in the epidermis and dermis exacerbates disease progression. Emerging therapeutic strategies such as senolytics and senomorphics offer promising avenues to target senescent cells and mitigate their deleterious effects, providing potential treatments for both skin aging and senescence-associated skin diseases. This review explores the molecular mechanisms of cellular senescence and its role in promoting age-related skin changes and pathologies, while compiling the observed effects of senotherapeutics in the skin and discussing the translational relevance.

期刊介绍： With the rise in average human life expectancy, the impact of ageing and age-related diseases on our society has become increasingly significant. Ageing research is now a focal point for numerous laboratories, encompassing leaders in genetics, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, and behavior. Ageing Research Reviews (ARR) serves as a cornerstone in this field, addressing emerging trends. ARR aims to fill a substantial gap by providing critical reviews and viewpoints on evolving discoveries concerning the mechanisms of ageing and age-related diseases. The rapid progress in understanding the mechanisms controlling cellular proliferation, differentiation, and survival is unveiling new insights into the regulation of ageing. From telomerase to stem cells, and from energy to oxyradical metabolism, we are witnessing an exciting era in the multidisciplinary field of ageing research. The journal explores the cellular and molecular foundations of interventions that extend lifespan, such as caloric restriction. It identifies the underpinnings of manipulations that extend lifespan, shedding light on novel approaches for preventing age-related diseases. ARR publishes articles on focused topics selected from the expansive field of ageing research, with a particular emphasis on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of the aging process. This includes age-related diseases like cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders. The journal also covers applications of basic ageing research to lifespan extension and disease prevention, offering a comprehensive platform for advancing our understanding of this critical field.
