Abstract
Age-associated impairments in adult stem cell functions correlate with a decline in somatic tissue regeneration capacity. However, the mechanisms underlying the molecular regulation of adult stem cell aging remain elusive. Here, we provide a proteomic analysis of physiologically aged murine muscle stem cells (MuSCs), illustrating a pre-senescent proteomic signature. During aging, the mitochondrial proteome and activity are impaired in MuSCs. In addition, the inhibition of mitochondrial function results in cellular senescence. We identified an RNA-binding protein, CPEB4, downregulated in various aged tissues, which is required for MuSC functions. CPEB4 regulates the mitochondrial proteome and activity through mitochondrial translational control. MuSCs devoid of CPEB4 induced cellular senescence. Importantly, restoring CPEB4 expression rescued impaired mitochondrial metabolism, improved geriatric MuSC functions, and prevented cellular senescence in various human cell lines. Our findings provide the basis for the possibility that CPEB4 regulates mitochondrial metabolism to govern cellular senescence, with an implication of therapeutic intervention for age-related senescence.

Abstract
Age-related eye diseases, including cataract, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy (DR), and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), are the leading causes of vision loss in the world. Several studies have shown that the occurrence and development of these diseases have an important relationship with oxidative stress in the eye. The Keap1-Nrf2-ARE pathway is a classical pathway that resists oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. This pathway is also active in the development of age-related eye diseases. A variety of drugs have been shown to treat age-related eye diseases through the Keap1-Nrf2-ARE (Kelch-like ECH-Associating protein 1- nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2-antioxidant response element) pathway. This review describes the role of oxidative stress in the development of age-related eye diseases, the function and regulation of the Keap1-Nrf2-ARE pathway, and the therapeutic effects of drugs associated with this pathway on age-related eye diseases.

LRRK2 Kinase Inhibitor Rejuvenates Oxidative Stress-Induced Cellular Senescence in Neuronal Cells. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:9969842.

Abstract
Background Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Aging is the most critical risk factor for the progression of PD. The correlation between aging and cellular senescence has been established. Cellular senescence is correlated with the dysregulation of the proteolytic pathway and mitochondrial dysfunction, which are also associated with the aggregation of α-synuclein (α-syn). Methods Human dopaminergic neuron-like cells (differentiated SH-SY5Y cells) were treated with rotenone in the presence or absence of the LRRK2 kinase inhibitor GSK2578215A (GSK-KI) for 48 h. The markers of cellular senescence, including p53, p21Waf1/Cip1 (p21), β-galactosidase (β-gal), Rb phosphorylation, senescence-associated (SA) β-gal activity, and lysosomal activity, were examined. The dSH cells and rat primary cortical neurons were treated with α-syn fibrils 30 min before treatment with rotenone in the presence or absence of GSK-KI for 48 h. Mice were intraperitoneally injected with rotenone and MLi-2 (LRRK2 kinase inhibitor) once every two days for two weeks. Results Rotenone upregulated LRRK2 phosphorylation and β-gal levels through the activation of the p53-p21 signaling axis and downregulated Rb phosphorylation. Additionally, rotenone upregulated SA β-gal activity, reactive oxygen species levels, and LRRK2 phosphorylation and inhibited lysosome activity. Rotenone-induced LRRK2 upregulation impaired the clearance of α-syn fibrils. Treatment with LRRK2 inhibitor mitigated rotenone-induced cellular senescence and α-syn accumulation. Conclusions Rotenone-induced upregulation of LRRK2 kinase activity promoted cellular senescence, which enhanced α-syn accumulation. However, the administration of an LRRK2 kinase inhibitor rejuvenated rotenone-induced cellular senescence.

Abstract
AIMS We developed a glaucoma-on-a-chip model to evaluate the viability of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) against high pressure and the potential effect of neuroprotection. METHODS A three-layered chip consisting of interconnecting microchannels and culture wells was designed and fabricated from poly-methyl methacrylate sheets. The bottom surface of the wells was modified by air plasma and coated with different membranes to provide a suitable extracellular microenvironment. RGCs were purified from postnatal Wistar rats by magnetic assisted cell sorting up to 70% and characterized by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. The cultured RGCs were exposed to normal (15 mmHg) or elevated pressure (33 mmHg) for 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hr, with and without adding brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) or a novel BDNF mimetic (RNYK). RESULTS Multiple inlet ports allow culture media and gas into the wells under elevated hydrostatic pressure. PDL/laminin formed the best supporting membrane. RGC survival rates were 85%, 78%, 70%, 67%, and 61% under normal pressure versus 40%, 22%, 18%, 12%, and 10% under high pressure at 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hr, respectively. BDNF and RNYK separately reduced RGC death rates about twofold under both normal and elevated pressures. CONCLUSION This model recapitulated the effects of elevated pressure over relatively short time periods and demonstrated the neuroprotective effects of BDNF and RNYK.

Abstract
Most of the previous studies in last three decades report evidence of interactions between the different phytochemicals and the proteins involved in signal transduction pathways using in silico, in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo analyses. However, extrapolation of these findings for clinical purposes has not been that fruitful. The efficacy of the phytochemicals in vivo studies is limited by parameters such as solubility, metabolic degradation, excretion, etc. Various approaches have now been devised to circumvent these limitations. Recently, chemical modification of the phytochemicals are demonstrated to reduce some of the limitations and improve their efficacy. Similar to traditional medicines several combinatorial phytochemical formulations have shown to be more efficient. Further, phytochemicals have been reported to be even more efficient in the form of nanoparticles. However, systematic evaluation of their efficacy, mode of action in pathway modulation, usage and associated challenges is required to be done. The present review begins with basic understanding of how signaling cascades regulate cellular response and the consequences of their dysregulation further summarizing the developments and problems associated with the dietary phytochemicals and also discuss recent approaches in strengthening these compounds in pharmacological applications. Only context relevant studies have been reviewed. Considering the limitations and scope of the article, authors do not claim inclusion of all the early and recent studies.

Abstract
Myocilin is highly expressed in the trabecular meshwork (TM), which plays an important role in the regulation of intraocular pressure (IOP). Myocilin abnormalities may cause dysfunction of the TM, potentially leading to increased IOP. High IOP is a well‑known primary risk factor for glaucoma. Myocilin mutations are common among glaucoma patients, and they are implicated in juvenile‑onset open‑angle glaucoma (JOAG) and adult‑onset primary open‑angle glaucoma (POAG). Aggregation of aberrant mutant myocilins is closely associated with glaucoma pathogenesis. The aim of the present review was to discuss the recent findings regarding the major physiological functions of myocilin, such as intra‑ and extracellular proteolytic processes. We also aimed to discuss the risk factors associated with myocilin and the development of glaucoma, such as misfolded/mutant myocilin, imbalance of myocilin and extracellular proteins, and instability of mutant myocilin associated with temperature. Finally, we further outlined certain issues that are yet to be resolved, which may represent the basis for future studies on the role of myocilin in glaucoma.
