The colon is one of the gastrointestinal organs most profoundly affected by aging. Recent advances in our understanding of both colonic physiology and the general mechanisms of aging have significantly expanded our knowledge of the types and underlying processes of colonic aging. In this review, we summarize current insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive physiological aging of the human colon. We examine the unique structural and functional features of key components of the colon, including the epithelium, local immune system, microbiome, enteric neurons, and smooth muscle cells, and explore how aging affects each of these cell populations, ultimately impacting overall colonic function. In the epithelium, increased mutational burden does not appear to be the primary driver of age-related dysfunction. Instead, dysregulation of signaling pathways such as EGF and Wnt is likely responsible for key phenotypic changes. Aged colonic neurons display protein misfolding and axonal dysfunction reminiscent of aging processes observed in the central nervous system. Similarly, smooth muscle cells exhibit impaired contractility, which is associated with disruptions in calcium homeostasis and deficits in cholinergic signaling. At the same time, age-related activation of the local immune system mirrors broader immunosenescence and may be further influenced by shifts in the gut microbiome, although a consistent aging-associated microbiome signature has yet to be identified. These multifaceted changes, combined with the colon’s inherent regional and cellular complexity and the challenges of modeling human colonic aging, continue to fascinate but also pose substantial obstacles for research. Emerging experimental models and clinical strategies offer promising avenues for improving the prevention and treatment of age-associated colonic dysfunction.
结肠是受衰老影响最严重的胃肠道器官之一。最近我们对结肠生理学和衰老的一般机制的理解取得了进展,这大大扩展了我们对结肠衰老的类型和潜在过程的认识。在这篇综述中,我们总结了目前对驱动人类结肠生理衰老的细胞和分子机制的见解。我们研究了结肠关键组成部分的独特结构和功能特征,包括上皮、局部免疫系统、微生物组、肠神经元和平滑肌细胞,并探讨了衰老如何影响这些细胞群,最终影响结肠的整体功能。在上皮中,增加的突变负担似乎不是年龄相关功能障碍的主要驱动因素。相反,信号通路如EGF和Wnt的失调可能是导致关键表型变化的原因。衰老的结肠神经元显示蛋白质错误折叠和轴突功能障碍,使人联想到中枢神经系统的衰老过程。同样,平滑肌细胞表现出收缩性受损,这与钙稳态的破坏和胆碱能信号的缺陷有关。与此同时,与年龄相关的局部免疫系统激活反映了更广泛的免疫衰老,并可能进一步受到肠道微生物组变化的影响,尽管尚未确定与衰老相关的微生物组特征。这些多方面的变化,加上结肠固有的区域和细胞复杂性,以及模拟人类结肠衰老的挑战,继续吸引着人们,但也给研究带来了实质性的障碍。新兴的实验模型和临床策略为改善与年龄相关的结肠功能障碍的预防和治疗提供了有希望的途径。

Several epigenetic clocks based on DNA methylation arrays have been developed to evaluate biological aging. However, there is limited information on how the newer EPIC v2.0 arrays affect clock estimations, which lack probes initially present on legacy arrays such as the 450K array. Therefore, we analyzed how this absence affects epigenetic clock estimates using data from the InCHIANTI study. Although some clocks showed significant over- or underestimation due to probe loss, correlations between estimates from all 450K probes (unreduced) and shared probes between 450K and EPIC v2.0 (reduced) remained significant. AgeAcceleration estimates were least affected by missing probes.
几种基于DNA甲基化阵列的表观遗传时钟已被开发用于评估生物衰老。但是,关于较新的EPIC v2.0阵列如何影响时钟估计的信息有限,因为它缺乏最初出现在450K阵列等传统阵列上的探测。因此,我们使用InCHIANTI研究的数据分析了这种缺失如何影响表观遗传时钟估计。尽管由于探针损耗,一些时钟显示出明显的高估或低估,但是所有450K探针(未减少)和450K与EPIC v2.0(减少)之间的共享探针的估计之间的相关性仍然很显著。缺少探测对AgeAcceleration估计的影响最小。

Cardiovascular compromise is the primary cause of death in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS), a lethal segmental premature aging disorder; however, no therapies directly target its underlying cardiac pathology. Our prior work established that non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)—the dominant pathway for double-strand break repair and genomic stabilization in cardiomyocytes—is impaired in HGPS mice, triggering cardiac atrophy via a CHK2-AMPKα-FOXO3A signaling axis. While forced cardiac hypertrophy can ameliorate pathology, whether restoring DNA repair capacity constitutes a viable therapeutic strategy remains unknown. Here, utilizing dihydrotestosterone (DHT), we demonstrate that NHEJ activation stabilizes the cardiomyocyte genome, increases cardiomyocyte size, and enhances contractile function. Furthermore, DHT administration reduces DNA damage accumulation and promotes structural and functional recovery in HGPS hearts. Transcriptome analysis further demonstrates that DHT treatment rejuvenates HGPS hearts, upregulates pathways linked to heart function and downregulates inflammatory responses, a key driver of cardiac aging and disease. Collectively, our findings support NHEJ activation as a promising therapeutic approach for mitigating HGPS-associated cardiac degeneration and ameliorating cardiac aging.
心血管损害是哈钦森-吉尔福德早衰综合征(HGPS)的主要死亡原因,HGPS是一种致命的节段性早衰疾病;然而,没有治疗方法直接针对其潜在的心脏病理。我们之前的研究表明,非同源末端连接(NHEJ)——心肌细胞双链断裂修复和基因组稳定的主要途径——在HGPS小鼠中受损,通过CHK2-AMPKα-FOXO3A信号轴引发心脏萎缩。虽然强迫性心脏肥厚可以改善病理,但恢复DNA修复能力是否构成一种可行的治疗策略仍然未知。在这里,利用二氢睾酮(DHT),我们证明了NHEJ的激活稳定了心肌细胞基因组,增加了心肌细胞的大小,增强了收缩功能。此外,DHT可减少DNA损伤积累,促进HGPS心脏的结构和功能恢复。转录组分析进一步表明,DHT治疗使HGPS心脏恢复活力,上调与心脏功能相关的途径,下调炎症反应,这是心脏衰老和疾病的关键驱动因素。总的来说,我们的研究结果支持NHEJ激活作为一种有希望的治疗方法来减轻hgps相关的心脏变性和改善心脏衰老。

Aging and obesity are closely connected, with obesity being a major risk factor for many age-related diseases caused by chronic inflammation and mobility problems. Lifestyle choices such as good nutrition, including medicinal herbs, and exercise are believed to influence body weight. Ashwagandha, an Ayurvedic adaptogen containing bioactive withanolides, is known to reduce stress, fight cancer, and improve energy metabolism. Its effects on lipid metabolism and obesity remain unclear. CARF (Collaborator of ARF), a protein involved in stress response and cancer regulation, was recently found to control liver lipid metabolism. We used a hepatocyte-based screening assay in which induction of fatty acid accumulation caused downregulation of CARF. On the other hand, cells treated with Ashwagandha withanolides showed CARF recovery and reduction in lipid accumulation. Molecular analyses on key regulators of stress and lipogenesis pathways supported antioxidative and antisteatotic effects of Withaferin-A (Wi-A) and Withanone (Wi-N). We discuss various antiaging activities of Ashwagandha withanolides and report computational molecular modeling-based insights into the interactions of Wi-A and Wi-N with three key targets (Fatty Acid Synthase, FASN; Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding protein-1c, SREBP-1c; and Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor, PPARγ) of the lipogenesis pathway, highlighting their potential in regulating lipid metabolism and obesity.
衰老与肥胖密切相关,肥胖是由慢性炎症和行动不便引起的许多与年龄有关的疾病的主要危险因素。生活方式的选择,如良好的营养,包括草药,和运动被认为会影响体重。Ashwagandha是一种阿育吠陀的适应原,含有生物活性的withanolides,可以减轻压力,对抗癌症,改善能量代谢。它对脂质代谢和肥胖的影响尚不清楚。CARF (Collaborator of ARF)是一种参与应激反应和癌症调节的蛋白质,最近被发现可以控制肝脏脂质代谢。我们使用了一种基于肝细胞的筛选试验,其中脂肪酸积累的诱导导致了CARF的下调。另一方面,用Ashwagandha withanolides处理的细胞显示CARF恢复和脂质积累减少。对应激和脂肪生成途径关键调控因子的分子分析支持了Withaferin-A (Wi-A)和Withanone (Wi-N)的抗氧化和抗脂肪变性作用。我们讨论了Ashwagandha withanolides的各种抗衰老活性,并报告了基于计算分子模型的Wi-A和Wi-N与脂肪生成途径的三个关键靶点(脂肪酸合成酶,FASN,甾醇调节元件结合蛋白1c, SREBP-1c和过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体,PPARγ)相互作用的见解,强调了它们在调节脂质代谢和肥胖方面的潜力。

Introduction

The cGAS-STING pathway is essential for immunity, detecting cytosolic DNA to trigger defense mechanisms and sterile inflammation linked to aging, obesity, and chronic inflammatory diseases. This study examines cGAS-STING signaling in senescent monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) and monocytes within the context of obesity.

Materials and Methods

Primary human MDMs were differentiated from peripheral blood of young, healthy, lean donors using M-CSF, to guide monocytes toward the macrophage lineage. MDMs were cultured for 7 or 21 days to induce replicative senescence. Peripheral monocytes were also isolated from age- and sex-matched lean and obese participants.

Results

MDMs cultured for 21 days exhibited increased cellular and nuclear area, developed a senescent phenotype marked by increased P16 expression and γH2AX phosphorylation, shorter telomeres, loss of LAMIN B1, diminished phagocytosis, with reduced STING expression and impaired response to cGAS agonist 2′3'-cGAMP. Similarly, ex vivo monocytes from individuals with obesity displayed elevated P16 expression and increased γH2AX and β-galactosidase activity, along with increased STING expression, compromised downstream signaling and reduced cytokine secretion.

Discussion

Dysfunctional cGAS-STING signaling and senescence markers suggest a shared mechanism underlying immune dysfunction in aging and obesity. Understanding cGAS-STING’s role in immune cells may provide insights into age-related immune decline and chronic inflammation.

Background

There is a bidirectional link between hypertension (HT) and cellular senescence of endothelial cells (ECs). However, the mechanisms underlying EC senescence in patients with HT are not yet fully understood.

Methods and Results

We analyzed serum from 71 patients with primary HT and compared it to serum from 25 healthy donors to assess its effects on EC biology, including biomarkers, signaling pathways, and cellular senescence effectors. Our findings revealed that exposing ECs to serum from HT patients (20 % for 72 h) impaired cell viability while enhancing proliferation, migration, and tubulogenesis. This effect is accompanied by increased expression of HIF-1α. Additionally, HT serum potentiated the expression of the senescence marker SA-β-Gal, shortened telomeres, and up-regulated cell-cycle inhibitors p16, p21, and p53. Regarding the signaling pathways, HT serum activated ERK1/2, p38 MAPK, AP-1/c-jun, and Notch1. Indices of oxidative stress in ECs treated with HT serum also increased, as indicated by elevated production of superoxides, activation of antioxidants (SOD, CAT), and accumulation of oxidized DNA, proteins, and lipids. Furthermore, mitochondria in these cells displayed decreased inner membrane potential and increased biogenesis, likely due to enhanced activity of PGC-1α. The activity of respiratory chain enzymes, including cytochrome c oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase, was also elevated. When HT serum-treated ECs were pre-incubated with the ROS scavenger PBN, the activity of SA-β-Gal decreased. A similar reduction in SA-β-Gal activity was observed when HT serum, which contained elevated levels of TGF-β1, was pre-incubated with a TGF-β1-neutralizing antibody. Importantly, exogenous TGF-β1, administered at a dose corresponding to its concentration in HT serum, induced senescence in ECs.

Conclusions

Our results indicate that serum from HT patients promotes senescence in ECs through mechanisms related to TGF-β1 and oxidative stress signaling.
背景:高血压(HT)与内皮细胞(ECs)细胞衰老之间存在双向联系。然而,HT患者EC衰老的机制尚不完全清楚。方法和结果:我们分析了71例原发性HT患者的血清,并将其与25例健康供者的血清进行比较,以评估其对EC生物学的影响,包括生物标志物、信号通路和细胞衰老效应物。我们的研究结果显示,将ECs暴露于HT患者的血清(20%,72小时)会损害细胞活力,同时增强增殖、迁移和小管形成。这种作用伴随着HIF-1α表达的增加。此外,HT血清增强了衰老标志物SA-β-Gal、端粒缩短和细胞周期抑制剂p16、p21和p53的表达。在信号通路方面,HT血清激活了ERK1/2、p38 MAPK、AP-1/c-jun和Notch1。经HT血清处理的ECs氧化应激指标也有所增加,如超氧化物的产生、抗氧化剂(SOD、CAT)的激活以及氧化DNA、蛋白质和脂质的积累。此外,这些细胞中的线粒体表现出内膜电位下降和生物发生增加,可能是由于PGC-1α活性增强。呼吸链酶,包括细胞色素c氧化酶和NADH脱氢酶的活性也升高。当HT血清处理的ECs与ROS清除剂PBN预孵育时,SA-β-Gal活性降低。将含有TGF-β1水平升高的HT血清与TGF-β1中和抗体预孵育后,观察到SA-β-Gal活性的类似降低。重要的是,外源性TGF-β1,给药剂量与其在HT血清中的浓度相对应,可诱导内皮细胞衰老。结论:我们的研究结果表明HT患者的血清通过TGF-β1和氧化应激信号相关的机制促进ECs衰老。

Our findings revealed that exposing ECs to serum from HT patients (20 % for 72 h) impaired cell viability while enhancing proliferation, migration, and tubulogenesis. This effect is accompanied by increased expression of HIF-1α. Additionally, HT serum potentiated the expression of the senescence marker SA-β-Gal, shortened telomeres, and up-regulated cell-cycle inhibitors p16, p21, and p53. Regarding the signaling pathways, HT serum activated ERK1/2, p38 MAPK, AP-1/c-jun, and Notch1. Indices of oxidative stress in ECs treated with HT serum also increased, as indicated by elevated production of superoxides, activation of antioxidants (SOD, CAT), and accumulation of oxidized DNA, proteins, and lipids. Furthermore, mitochondria in these cells displayed decreased inner membrane potential and increased biogenesis, likely due to enhanced activity of PGC-1α. The activity of respiratory chain enzymes, including cytochrome c oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase, was also elevated. When HT serum-treated ECs were pre-incubated with the ROS scavenger PBN, the activity of SA-β-Gal decreased. A similar reduction in SA-β-Gal activity was observed when HT serum, which contained elevated levels of TGF-β1, was pre-incubated with a TGF-β1-neutralizing antibody. Importantly, exogenous TGF-β1, administered at a dose corresponding to its concentration in HT serum, induced senescence in ECs.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Our results indicate that serum from HT patients promotes senescence in ECs through mechanisms related to TGF-β1 and oxidative stress signaling.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18340,"journal":{"name":"Mechanisms of Ageing and Development","volume":"229 ","pages":"Article 112128"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145635481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Limited studies have explored the link between metabolic profiles and cognitive frailty, its temporal relationship is especially lacking. This study aimed to identify metabolic patterns associated with cognitive frailty over time. This eight-year prospective cohort study (2011–2019) recruited 605 nondemented community-dwelling older adults at baseline. Cognitive frailty, assessed biennially, was defined as physical frailty and mild cognitive impairment. Baseline plasma metabolites were evaluated using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance. Generalized linear mixed models assessed the longitudinal association between metabolites and cognitive frailty, further stratified by important covariates. We found that one unit increment of baseline fatty acyl chain (CH2CH2CC) Z-score was associated with worsening cognitive frailty at baseline [adjusted risk ratio (aRR)= 1.97], which attenuated over eight years (aRR=0.94). In contrast, one unit increment of baseline pyruvate Z-score was associated with attenuation in the progression to the next stage of cognitive frailty (aRR=0.94). These associations were more evident in men, individuals with > 12 years of education, and apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 non-carriers (aRR=0.34–0.92). Significant interactions were found between APOE ε4 status and both fatty acyl chain (Pinteraction=0.004) and pyruvate (Pinteraction=0.03). Our findings suggest plasma metabolites may serve as markers for predicting cognitive frailty and APOE genotypes modifying this pathogenesis.
有限的研究探索了代谢谱与认知脆弱性之间的联系,其时间关系尤其缺乏。这项研究旨在确定随着时间的推移与认知衰弱相关的代谢模式。这项为期8年的前瞻性队列研究(2011-2019)在基线时招募了605名无痴呆症状的社区老年人。认知衰弱,每两年评估一次,定义为身体虚弱和轻度认知障碍。基线血浆代谢物采用1H核磁共振检测。广义线性混合模型评估了代谢物与认知脆弱性之间的纵向关联,并通过重要协变量进一步分层。我们发现,基线脂肪酰基链(CH2CH2CC) z -评分每增加一个单位与基线认知衰弱恶化相关[调整风险比(aRR)= 1.97],8年后降低(aRR=0.94)。相比之下,基线丙酮酸z评分增加一个单位与认知衰弱进展到下一阶段的衰减相关(aRR=0.94)。这些关联在男性、受教育程度为>; 12年的个体和载脂蛋白E (APOE) ε4非携带者中更为明显(aRR= 0.34-0.92)。APOE ε4状态与脂肪酰基链(p - interaction=0.004)和丙酮酸(p - interaction=0.03)均存在显著的交互作用。我们的研究结果表明,血浆代谢物可能作为预测认知衰弱和APOE基因型改变这一发病机制的标记物。

Female fertility sharply declines from the mid-thirties of their life, mainly due to age-related decreases in oocyte quality and quantity. Among numerous interconnected maternal factors, an increase in the incidence of aneuploidy caused by meiotic errors is a leading cause of oocyte competence decrease. Why advanced maternal age increases the likelihood of chromosome segregation errors in oocytes remains one of the outstanding questions in reproductive and developmental biology, and it is becoming more important as the age at which women have children continues to rise. A better understanding of this question is crucial for developing effective strategies for prophylaxis or therapeutic interventions for infertility. The progressive loss of cohesin, a ring-shaped protein complex with fundamental roles in chromosome cohesion and architecture, has recently been heavily implicated in the increase in oocyte aneuploidy rates during maternal aging. This review discusses the underlying mechanisms of age-related aneuploidy in oocytes. We particularly ask how chromosomal cohesin loss affects the fidelity of oocyte chromosome segregation and examine physiological factors that contribute to this deterioration.
女性的生育能力从35岁左右开始急剧下降,主要是由于与年龄相关的卵母细胞质量和数量的减少。在众多相互关联的母体因素中,由减数分裂错误引起的非整倍体发生率的增加是导致卵母细胞能力下降的主要原因。为什么高龄产妇会增加卵母细胞中染色体分离错误的可能性仍然是生殖和发育生物学中悬而未决的问题之一,随着女性生育年龄的不断提高,这个问题变得越来越重要。更好地理解这个问题对于制定预防或治疗不孕症的有效策略至关重要。内聚蛋白是一种环状蛋白复合物,在染色体内聚和结构中起着重要作用,其逐渐丧失最近被认为与母亲衰老过程中卵母细胞非整倍体率的增加密切相关。本文综述了卵母细胞年龄相关性非整倍体的潜在机制。我们特别询问染色体内聚蛋白损失如何影响卵母细胞染色体分离的保真度,并检查导致这种恶化的生理因素。

Ischemic stroke (IS) remains a leading cause of long-term disability and mortality worldwide, with recovery outcomes shaped by the interplay between acute vascular injury, pre-existing comorbidities, and individual molecular profiles. Common risk factors—such as diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and dyslipidemia—not only increase stroke susceptibility but also impair neurovascular repair by perpetuating systemic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and impaired neuroplasticity. Aging remains an underexplored determinant of epigenetic remodeling in stroke. Beyond these clinical determinants, genetic and epigenetic mechanisms contribute substantially to stroke heterogeneity. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified loci such as HDAC9, PATJ, PTCH1, and ABO that modulate inflammation, oxidative stress, and vascular remodeling. Complementary epigenetic pathways, including DNA methylation, histone acetylation, and circular RNAs (circRNAs), dynamically regulate gene expression in response to ischemia and comorbid influences, encoding a persistent “molecular memory” that shapes both injury and repair. Functional studies reveal that circRNAs orchestrate apoptosis, angiogenesis, and synaptic remodeling, while selective DNMT and HDAC inhibition can restore neurovascular integrity in experimental models. Recent multi-omics and longitudinal approaches demonstrate that these molecular signatures evolve across acute, subacute, and chronic phases of recovery, yet clinical translation remains limited. Aging and chronic comorbidities further modify epigenetic programs, reducing repair capacity. Although genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy illustrates the feasibility of personalized stroke care, broader genomics- and epigenetics-informed interventions require rigorous validation. This review integrates current knowledge on the interplay between vascular comorbidities, genetic predisposition, and epigenetic regulation in shaping stroke recovery. Understanding these interactions is essential for developing precision medicine approaches that enhance functional outcomes and reduce recurrence in stroke survivors.Integrating multi-omics profiling with comorbidity stratification, functional validation, and longitudinal biomarker tracking will be pivotal to achieving actionable precision medicine and improving outcomes in stroke survivors.
缺血性脑卒中(IS)仍然是全球范围内导致长期残疾和死亡的主要原因,其恢复结果受急性血管损伤、既往共病和个体分子谱的相互作用影响。常见的危险因素,如糖尿病、心房颤动、高血压和血脂异常,不仅增加了中风的易感性,而且通过持续的全身炎症、内皮功能障碍和神经可塑性受损而损害神经血管修复。衰老在脑卒中表观遗传重塑中仍是一个未被充分探索的决定因素。除了这些临床决定因素外,遗传和表观遗传机制对卒中异质性也有重要影响。全基因组关联研究(GWAS)已经确定了HDAC9、PATJ、PTCH1和ABO等基因座,它们可以调节炎症、氧化应激和血管重塑。互补的表观遗传途径,包括DNA甲基化、组蛋白乙酰化和环状rna (circRNAs),在缺血和共病影响下动态调节基因表达,编码持久的“分子记忆”,形成损伤和修复。功能研究表明,环状rna协调细胞凋亡、血管生成和突触重塑,而选择性DNMT和HDAC抑制可以恢复实验模型中的神经血管完整性。最近的多组学和纵向方法表明,这些分子特征在急性、亚急性和慢性恢复期进化,但临床翻译仍然有限。衰老和慢性合并症进一步改变了表观遗传程序,降低了修复能力。虽然基因型引导的抗血小板治疗说明了个性化卒中治疗的可行性,但更广泛的基因组学和表观遗传学干预需要严格的验证。这篇综述整合了血管合并症、遗传易感性和表观遗传调控在塑造卒中恢复中的相互作用的现有知识。了解这些相互作用对于开发精确医学方法至关重要,这些方法可以提高中风幸存者的功能预后并减少复发。将多组学分析与共病分层、功能验证和纵向生物标志物跟踪相结合,对于实现可操作的精准医学和改善卒中幸存者的预后至关重要。
