Abstract
The kidney is a metabolically active organ that requires energy to drive processes such as tubular reabsorption and secretion, and shows a decline in function with advancing age. Various molecular mechanisms, including genomic instability, telomere attrition, inflammation, autophagy, mitochondrial function, and changes to the sirtuin and Klotho signalling pathways, are recognized regulators of individual lifespan and pivotal factors that govern kidney ageing. Thus, mechanisms that contribute to ageing not only dictate renal outcomes but also exert a substantial influence over life expectancy. Conversely, kidney dysfunction, in the context of chronic kidney disease (CKD), precipitates an expedited ageing trajectory in individuals, leading to premature ageing and a disconnect between biological and chronological age. As CKD advances, age-related manifestations such as frailty become increasingly conspicuous. Hence, the pursuit of healthy ageing necessitates not only the management of age-related complications but also a comprehensive understanding of the processes and markers that underlie systemic ageing. Here, we examine the hallmarks of ageing, focusing on the mechanisms by which they affect kidney health and contribute to premature organ ageing. We also review diagnostic methodologies and interventions for premature ageing, with special consideration given to the potential of emerging therapeutic avenues to target age-related kidney diseases.

Abstract
Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). Recent findings suggest that Testis-Specific Protein Y-encoded-Like 2 (TSPYL2) plays a fibrogenic role in diabetes-associated renal injury. However, the role of TSPYL2 in IRI-induced kidney damage is not entirely clear. In this study, we found that the expression of TSPYL2 was upregulated in a mouse model of AKI and in the hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) cell model. Knockdown of TSPYL2 attenuated kidney injury after IRI. More specifically, the knockdown of TSPYL2 or aminocarboxymuconate-semialdehyde decarboxylase (ACMSD) alleviated renal IRI-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in vitro and in vivo. Further investigation showed that TSPYL2 regulated SREBP-2 acetylation by inhibiting SIRT1 and promoting p300 activity, thereby promoting the transcriptional activity of ACMSD. In conclusion, TSPYL2 was identified as a pivotal regulator of IRI-induced kidney damage by activating ACMSD, which may lead to NAD+ content and the damaging response in the kidney.

Abstract
Despite the progress that has been made in diverse DNA-based nanodevices to in situ monitor the activity of the DNA repair enzymes in living cells, the significance of improving both the sensitivity and specificity has remained largely neglected and understudied. Herein, we propose a regulatable DNA nanodevice to specifically monitor the activity of DNA repair enzymes for early evaluation of cancer mediated by genomic instability. Concretely, an AND logic gate-regulated DNAzyme nanoflower was rationally designed by the self-assembly of the DNA duplex modified with both apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site and methyl lesion site. The DNAzyme nanoflower could be reconfigured under the repair of AP sites and O6-methylguanine sites by apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) and O6-methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) to produce a fluorescent signal, realizing the sensitive monitoring of the activity of APE1 and MGMT. Compared to the free DNAzyme duplex, the fluorescent response of the DNAzyme nanoflower increased by 60%, due to the effective enrichment of the DNA probes by the nanoflower structure. More importantly, we have demonstrated that the dual-enzyme activated strategy allows imaging of specific cancer cells in the AND logic gate manner using MCF-7 as a cancer cell model, improving the specificity of cancer cell imaging. This AND logic gate-regulated multifunctional DNAzyme nanoflower provides a simple tool for simultaneously visualizing multiple DNA repair enzymes, holding great potential in early clinical diagnosis and drug discovery.

Abstract
Ageing is a universal and unavoidable phenomenon that significantly increases the risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD). It has been reported that ageing is associated with functional disruption and structural damage to the kidneys. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), which are nanoscale membranous vesicles containing lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, are secreted by cells into the extracellular spaces. They have diverse functions such as repairing and regenerating different forms of ageing-related CKD and playing a crucial role in intercellular communication. This paper reviews the etiology of ageing in CKD, with particular attention paid to the roles of EVs as carriers of ageing signals and anti-ageing therapeutic strategies in CKD. In this regard, the double-edged role of EVs in ageing-related CKD is examined, along with the potential for their application in clinical settings.
