Abstract
BACKGROUND Many developmental processes are coregulated by apoptosis and senescence. However, there is a lack of data on the development of branchial arches, epibranchial placodes, and pharyngeal pouches, which harbor epibranchial signaling centers. RESULTS Using immunohistochemical, histochemical, and 3D reconstruction methods, we show that in mice, senescence and apoptosis together may contribute to the invagination of the branchial clefts and the deepening of the cervical sinus floor, in antagonism to the proliferation acting in the evaginating branchial arches. The concomitant apoptotic elimination of lateral line rudiments occurs in the absence of senescence. In the epibranchial placodes, senescence and apoptosis appear to (1) support invagination or at least indentation by immobilizing the margins of the centrally proliferating pit, (2) coregulate the number and fate of Pax8+ precursors, (3) progressively narrow neuroblast delamination sites, and (4) contribute to placode regression. Putative epibranchial signaling centers in the pharyngeal pouches are likely deactivated by rostral senescence and caudal apoptosis. CONCLUSIONS Our results reveal a plethora of novel patterns of apoptosis and senescence, some overlapping, some complementary, whose functional contributions to the development of the branchial region, including the epibranchial placodes and their signaling centers, can now be tested experimentally.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a distinct state that is frequently induced in response to ageing and stress. Yet studies have also uncovered beneficial functions in development, repair and regeneration. Current opinion therefore suggests that timely and controlled induction of senescence can be beneficial, while misregulation of the senescence program, either through mis-timed activation, or chronic accumulation of senescent cells, contributes to many disease states and the ageing process. Whether atypical activation of senescence plays a role in the pathogenesis of developmental defects has been relatively underexplored. Here, we discuss three recent studies that implicate ectopic senescence in neurodevelopmental defects, with possible causative roles for senescence in these birth defects. In addition, we highlight how the examination of senescence in other birth defects is warranted, and speculate that aberrantly activated senescence may play a much broader role in developmental defects than currently appreciated.

Abstract
Senescence is the inevitable biological processes and is also considered as the biggest risk factor for the development of age - related diseases (ARDs) and geriatric syndrome (GS). Senescence is also known as inflammaging because it is characterized by persistent, long-term, low-grade inflammation named senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). However, the mechanism for the persistence of inflammaging remains largely unclear. To explore the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in senescence/inflammaging, we established the cellular senescence model and performed TMT-based comparative quantitative proteomics and parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) to reveal the changes of EVs between young cells and senescent cells. A total of 3966 proteins were quantifiable, of which 132 were up-regulated, 144 were down-regulated, compared with the young cells. Subsequently, we chose 19 proteins involved in inflammation or proliferation to carry out PRM validation analysis. The result indicated that proteins promoting NF-κB signal pathway were up-regulated, and proteins promoting cell proliferation were down-regulated. The study provided a comprehensive altered proteomics profiles of EVs from senescent cells, and the result showed that EVs could serve as information carrier for further research on the pathogenesis and progression of senescence/inflammaging. SIGNIFICANCE: The mechanism of inflammaging occurrence and development has yet been clear. Therefore, this study attempts to provide an improved understanding of inflammaging from the perspective of EVs. The proteomics analysis revealed that the most changed proteins were connected to inflammation signaling pathways, cell growth and cell death, and PRM analysis results showed that proteins involved in NF-κB signal pathway and cell proliferation were more changed. The research systematically analyzed the profiles of proteins in senescence cell model, and the result indicated that further research should focus on the relationship between EVs and senescence/inflammaging.

Abstract
Senescence is a cellular state which involves cell cycle arrest and a proinflammatory phenotype, and it has traditionally been associated with cellular and organismal aging. However, increasing evidence suggests key roles in tissue growth and regrowth, especially during development and regeneration. Conversely, cellular plasticity-the capacity of cells to undergo identity change, including differentiation and dedifferentiation-is associated with development and regeneration but is now being investigated in the context of age-related diseases such as Alzheimer disease. Here, we discuss the paradox of the role for cellular senescence in cellular plasticity: senescence can act as a cell-autonomous barrier and a paracrine driver of plasticity. We provide a conceptual framework for integrating recent data and use the interplay between cellular senescence and plasticity to provide insight into age-related diseases. Finally, we argue that age-related diseases can be better deciphered when senescence is recognized as a core mechanism of regeneration and development.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is well-recognized as an efficient non-invasive remedy for cancer treatment. Since 10 Gy, a weekly total dose for conventional radiotherapy, was proven to create unreparable and residual DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), they were found to give rise to mitotic failure, such as mitotic catastrophe, which resulted in multiple micronuclei associated with premature senescence. We demonstrated that pulverization of micronuclear DNA was caspase-dependent and triggered not ATM-dependent but DNA-PK-dependent DNA damage response, including phosphorylation of histone H2AX. Pulverization of micronuclear DNA and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) worsen tumor microenvironment after radiotherapy, so that senolytic drug was applied to eliminate senescent cancer cells. Prematurely senescent cancer cells with micronuclei caused by 10 Gy of γ-irradiation were subjected to 5 μM of ABT-263, a Bcl-2 family inhibitor, and selective cancer cell death by apoptosis was observed, while ABT-263 had little effect on growing cancer cells. Western blot analysis showed augmented expression of both apoptotic and anti-apoptotic proteins in senescent cells, indicating that increased apoptotic factors are essential for selective apoptotic cell death in combination with ABT-263. Our results suggested that selective elimination of senescent cells alleviates SASP and micronuclei-mediated the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) activation, both of which lead to unfavorable adverse effects caused by radiotherapy.

Abstract
Significance: Senescence is a cellular state induced by internal or external stimuli, which result in cell cycle arrest, morphological changes, and dysfunctions in mitochondrial and lysosomal functionality as well as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype. Senescent cells accumulate in tissues in physiological and pathological conditions such as development, tissue repair, aging, and cancer. Recent Advances: Growing evidences indicate that senescent cells in vivo are a heterogeneous cell population due to different cell-autonomous activated pathways and distinct microenvironmental contexts. Critical Issues: In this review, we discuss the different contexts where senescence assumes a key role with beneficial or harmful outcomes. The heterogeneous nature of senescence pushes toward resolution of the specific molecular profile and secretome to typify senescent cells in physiological and pathological contexts. Future Directions: Future research will enable exploring the heterogeneity of the senescent population to precisely map the progression of cells through senescent trajectories and study the impact of the therapeutic advantage of senolytic drugs for translational strategies toward supporting the health span.

Is Senescence-Associated β-Galactosidase a Reliable in vivo Marker of Cellular Senescence During Embryonic Development? Front Cell Dev Biol 2021; 9:623175.

Abstract
During vertebrate embryonic development, cellular senescence occurs at multiple locations. To date, it has been accepted that when there has been induction of senescence in an embryonic tissue, β-galactosidase activity is detectable at a pH as high as 6.0, and this has been extensively used as a marker of cellular senescence in vivo in both whole-mount and cryosections. Such senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-GAL) labeling appears enhanced in degenerating regions of the vertebrate embryo that are also affected by programmed cell death. In this sense, there is a strong SA-β-GAL signal which overlaps with the pattern of cell death in the interdigital tissue of the developing limbs, and indeed, many of the labeled cells detected go on to subsequently undergo apoptosis. However, it has been reported that β-GAL activity at pH 6.0 is also enhanced in healthy neurons, and some retinal neurons are strongly labeled with this histochemical technique when they begin to differentiate during early embryonic development. These labeled early post-mitotic neurons also express other senescence markers such as p21. Therefore, the reliability of this histochemical technique in studying senescence in cells such as neurons that undergo prolonged and irreversible cell-cycle arrest is questionable because it is also expressed in healthy post-mitotic cells. The identification of new biomarkers of cellular senescence would, in combination with established markers, increase the specificity and efficiency of detecting cellular senescence in embryonic and healthy mature tissues.

Abstract
Programmed cell senescence is a cellular process that seems to contribute to embryo development, in addition to cell proliferation, migration, differentiation and programmed cell death, and has been observed in evolutionary distant organisms such as mammals, amphibians, birds and fish. Programmed cell senescence is a phenotype similar to stress-induced cellular senescence, characterized by the expression of the cell cycle inhibitors p21CIP1/WAF and p16INK4A, increased activity of a lysosomal enzyme with beta-galactosidase activity (coined senescence-associated beta-galactosidase) and secretion of growth factors, interleukins, chemokines, metalloproteases, etc., collectively known as a senescent-associated secretory phenotype that instructs surrounding tissue. How wide is the distribution of programmed cell senescence during mouse development and its specific mechanisms to shape the embryo are still poorly understood. Here, we investigated whether markers of programmed cell senescence are found in the developing mouse spinal cord and notochord. We found discrete areas and developmental windows with high senescence-associated beta galactosidase in both spinal cord and notochord, which was reduced in mice embryos developed ex-utero in the presence of the senolytic ABT-263. Expression of p21CIP1/WAF was documented in epithelial cells of the spinal cord and the notochord, while p16INK4A was observed in motoneurons. Treatment with the senolytic ABT-263 decreased the number of motoneurons, supporting their senescent phenotype. Our data suggest that a subpopulation of motoneurons in the developing spinal cord, as well as some notochord cells undergo programmed cell senescence.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is considered a stress response imposing a stable cell cycle arrest to restrict the growth of damaged cells. More recently however, cellular senescence was identified during mouse embryo development at particular structures during specific periods of time. This programmed cell senescence has been proposed to serve developmental and morphogenetic functions and to potentially represent an evolutionary origin of senescence. Cellular senescence has also been described to take place during bird (chick and quail) and amphibian (xenopus and axoltl) development. Fish however, have been described to show a very narrow and restricted pattern of developmental cell senescence. Here we carried out a detailed characterization of senescence during zebrafish development and found it to be conserved and widespread. Apart from yolk and cloaca, previously described structures, we also identified senescence in the developing central nervous system, intestine, liver, pronephric ducts, and crystalline. Interestingly, senescence at these developing structures disappeared upon treatment with senolytic compound ABT-263, supporting their senescent identity and opening the possibility of studying the contribution of this process to development. In summary, our findings extend the description of developmentally-programmed cell senescence to lower vertebrates contributing to the notion of the relevance of this process for embryo development.

Abstract
Cellular senescence has recently become causally implicated in pathological ageing. Hence, a great deal of research is currently dedicated towards developing senolytic agents to selectively kill senescent cells. However, senescence also plays important roles in a range of physiological processes including during organismal development, providing a barrier to tumorigenesis and in limiting fibrosis. Recent evidence also suggests a role for senescence in coordinating tissue remodelling and in the regeneration of complex structures. Through its non-cell-autonomous effects, a transient induction of senescence may create a permissive environment for remodelling or regeneration through promoting local proliferation, cell plasticity, tissue patterning, balancing growth, or indirectly through finely tuned interactions with infiltrating immune mediators. A careful analysis of the beneficial roles of cellular senescence may provide insights into important physiological processes as well as informing strategies to counteract its detrimental consequences in ageing and disease.

Abstract
Muscle and bone interact via physical forces and secreted osteokines and myokines. Physical forces are generated through gravity, locomotion, exercise, and external devices. Cells sense mechanical strain via adhesion molecules and translate it into biochemical responses, modulating the basic mechanisms of cellular biology such as lineage commitment, tissue formation, and maturation. This may result in the initiation of bone formation, muscle hypertrophy, and the enhanced production of extracellular matrix constituents, adhesion molecules, and cytoskeletal elements. Bone and muscle mass, resistance to strain, and the stiffness of matrix, cells, and tissues are enhanced, influencing fracture resistance and muscle power. This propagates a dynamic and continuous reciprocity of physicochemical interaction. Secreted growth and differentiation factors are important effectors of mutual interaction. The acute effects of exercise induce the secretion of exosomes with cargo molecules that are capable of mediating the endocrine effects between muscle, bone, and the organism. Long-term changes induce adaptations of the respective tissue secretome that maintain adequate homeostatic conditions. Lessons from unloading, microgravity, and disuse teach us that gratuitous tissue is removed or reorganized while immobility and inflammation trigger muscle and bone marrow fatty infiltration and propagate degenerative diseases such as sarcopenia and osteoporosis. Ongoing research will certainly find new therapeutic targets for prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Regeneration has fascinated scientists since well before the 20th century revolutions in genetics and molecular biology. The field of regenerative biology has grown steadily over the past decade, incorporating advances in imaging, genomics and genome editing to identify key cell types and molecules involved across many model organisms. Yet for many or most tissues, it can be difficult to predict when and how findings from these studies will advance regenerative medicine. Establishing technologies to stimulate regrowth of a lost or amputated limb with a patterned replicate, as salamanders do routinely, is one of the most challenging directives of tissue regeneration research. Here, we speculate upon what research avenues the field must explore to move closer to this capstone achievement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-GAL) histochemistry is the most commonly used biomarker of cellular senescence. These SA-β-GAL-positive cells are senescent embryonic cells that are usually removed by apoptosis from the embryo, followed by macrophage-mediated clearance. RESULTS Some authors have proposed that SA-β-GAL activity in differentiated neurons from young and adult mammals cannot be uniquely attributed to cell senescence, whether in vivo or in vitro. Using the developing visual system of the chicken as a model, the present study found that SA-β-GAL detected in the developing retina corresponded to lysosomal β-galactosidase activity, and that SA-β-GAL activity did not correlate with the chronotopographical distribution of apoptotic cells. However, SA-β-GAL staining in the undifferentiated retina coincided with the appearance of early differentiating neurons. In the laminated retina, SA-β-GAL staining was concentrated in the ganglion, amacrine, and horizontal cell layers. The photoreceptors and pigment epithelial cells also exhibited SA-β-GAL activity throughout retinal development. We have also found that SA-β-GAL staining strongly correlated p21 immunoreactivity. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the results clearly show that SA-β-GAL activity cannot be regarded as a specific marker of senescence during retinal development, and that it is mainly expressed in subpopulations of postmitotic neurons, which are nonproliferative cells, even at early stages of cell differentiation.

Abstract
During embryonic development, organ morphogenesis requires major tissue rearrangements that are tightly regulated at the genetic level. A large number of studies performed in recent decades assigned a central role to programmed cell death for such morphogenetic tissue rearrangements that often sculpt the shape of embryonic organs. However, accumulating evidence indicates that far from being the only factor responsible for sculpting organ morphology, programmed cell death is accompanied by other tissue remodeling events that ensure the outcome of morphogenesis. In this regard, cell senescence has been recently associated with morphogenetic degenerative embryonic processes as an early tissue remodeling event in development of the limbs, kidney and inner ear. Here, we have explored cell senescence by monitoring β‐galactosidase activity during embryonic heart development where programmed cell death is believed to exert an important morphogenetic function. We report the occurrence of extensive cell senescence foci during heart morphogenesis. These foci overlap spatially and temporally with the areas of programmed cell death that are associated with remodeling of the outflow tract to build the roots of the great arteries and with the septation of cardiac cavities. qPCR analysis allowed us to identify a gene expression profile characteristic of the so‐called senescence secretory associated phenotype in the remodeling outflow tract of the embryonic heart. In addition, we confirmed local upregulation of numerous tumor suppressor genes including p21, p53, p63, p73 and Btg2. Interestingly, the areas of cell senescence were also accompanied by intense lysosomal activation and non‐apoptotic DNA damage revealed by γH2AX immunolabeling. Considering the importance of sustained DNA damage as a triggering factor for cell senescence and apoptosis, we propose the coordinated contribution of DNA damage, senescence and apoptotic cell death to assure tissue remodeling in the developing vertebrate heart.
