Abstract
Given its increasing prevalence, aging is of great concern to researchers worldwide. Cellular senescence is a physiological or pathological cellular state caused by aging and a prominent risk factor for the interruption of the integrity and functionality of human biological barriers. Health barriers play an important role in maintaining microenvironmental homeostasis within the body. The senescence of barrier cells leads to barrier dysfunction and age-related diseases. Cellular senescence has been reported to be a key target for the prevention of age-related barrier diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and preeclampsia. Drugs such as metformin, dasatinib, quercetin, BCL-2 inhibitors, and rapamycin have been shown to intervene in cellular senescence and age-related diseases. In this review, we conclude that cellular senescence is involved in age-related biological barrier impairment. We further outline the cellular pathways and mechanisms underlying barrier impairment caused by cellular senescence and describe age-related barrier diseases associated with senescent cells. Finally, we summarize the currently used anti-senescence pharmacological interventions and discuss their therapeutic potential for preventing age-related barrier diseases.

Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:1865-1885. [PMID: 38534738 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46030122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Blood-derived products, such as citrate platelet-rich plasma (CPRP) and hyperacute serum (HAS), are recognized for their rich growth factor content. When human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells are exposed to combined mitogenic and DNA-damaging stimuli, it can lead to an increased burden of senescent cells and a modified senescence-associated secretory phenotype. In this study, the senescent state was comprehensively assessed through various methods, including phosphorylated histone H2AX (γH2AX) staining, p21 and p16 q-PCR, p21-western blot, growth curves, and senescence-associated ß-galactosidase staining. Two primary treatments with blood products were administered, one early (immediately after etoposide) and the other late (11 days after etoposide treatment). The effects of the blood product treatment were evaluated by measuring interleukin 6 and 8 (IL-6 and IL-8) levels, as well as collagen 1 (COL1) and p21 mRNA expression. Additionally, 2,3-bis-(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide (XTT) assays, cell size measurements, viability assays, and cell number calculations were conducted. The results revealed that cells treated with hyperacute serum in the early treatment phase exhibited the lowest observed IL-6 and IL-8 levels. In contrast, a clear inflammatory response for IL-8 was observed in cells treated with hyperacute serum and citrate platelet-rich plasma during the late treatment. Furthermore, an upregulation of COL1 expression was observed in the early treatment, while cells in the late treatment group remained unaffected. Notably, citrate platelet-rich plasma-treated cells showed a decrease in COL1 expression. Overall, the treatment with blood products appears to have slightly positive effects on skin rejuvenation.

Abstract
Circulating endothelial cells (CEC) are arising as biomarkers for vascular diseases. However, whether they can be utilized as markers of endothelial cell (EC) senescence in vivo remains unknown. Here, we present a protocol to isolate circulating endothelial cells for a characterization of their senescent signature. Further, we characterize different models of EC senescence induction in vitro and show similar patterns of senescence being upregulated in CECs of aged patients as compared to young volunteers. Replication-(ageing), etoposide-(DNA damage) and angiotensin II-(ROS) induced senescence models showed the expected cell morphology and proliferation-reduction effects. Expression of senescence-associated secretory phenotype markers was specifically upregulated in replication-induced EC senescence. All models showed reduced telomere lengths and induction of the INK4a/ARF locus. Additional p14ARF-p21 pathway activation was observed in replication- and etoposide-induced EC senescence. Next, we established a combined magnetic activated- and fluorescence activated cell sorting (MACS-FACS) based protocol for CEC isolation. Interestingly, CECs isolated from aged volunteers showed similar senescence marker patterns as replication- and etoposide-induced senescence models. Here, we provide first proof of senescence in human blood derived circulating endothelial cells. These results hint towards an exciting future of using CECs as mirror cells for in vivo endothelial cell senescence, of particular interest in the context of endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Therapy-Induced Senescence (TIS) is a form of senescence that is typically described in malignant cells in response to the exposure of cancer chemotherapy or radiation but can also be precipitated in non-malignant cells. TIS has been shown to contribute to the development of several cancer therapy-related adverse effects; however, evidence on its role in mediating chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity, such as Chemotherapy-induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN), is limited. We here show that cisplatin treatment over two cycles (cumulative dose of 23 mg/kg) provoked mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia in Sprague-Dawley rats. Isolation of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) from the cisplatin-treated rats demonstrated robust SA-β-gal upregulation at both day 8 (after the first cycle) and day 18 (after the second cycle), decreased lmnb1 expression, increased expression of cdkn1a and cdkn2a, and of several factors of the Senescence-associated Secretory Phenotype (SASP) (Il6, Il1b, and mmp9). Moreover, single-cell calcium imaging of cultured DRGs revealed a significant increase in terms of the magnitude of KCl-evoked calcium responses in cisplatin-treated rats compared to vehicle-treated rats. No significant change was observed in terms of the magnitude of capsaicin-evoked calcium responses in cisplatin-treated rats compared to vehicle-treated rats but with decreased area under the curve of the responses in cisplatin-treated rats. Further evidence to support the contribution of TIS to therapy adverse effects is required but should encourage the use of senescence-modulating agents (senotherapeutics) as novel palliative approaches to mitigate chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a treatment-limiting adverse effect of anticancer therapy that complicates the lifestyle of many cancer survivors. There is currently no gold-standard for the assessment or management of CIPN. Subsequently, understanding the underlying mechanisms that lead to the development of CIPN is essential for finding better pharmacological therapy. Therapy-induced senescence (TIS) is a form of senescence that is triggered in malignant and non-malignant cells in response to the exposure to chemotherapy. Recent evidence has also suggested that TIS develops in the dorsal root ganglia of rodent models of CIPN. Interestingly, several components of the senescent phenotype are commensurate with the currently established primary processes implicated in the pathogenesis of CIPN including mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. In this article, we review the literature that supports the hypothesis that TIS could serve as a holistic mechanism leading to CIPN, and we propose the potential for investigating senotherapeutics as means to mitigate CIPN in cancer survivors.

Abstract
Therapy-Induced Senescence (TIS) is an established response to anticancer therapy in a variety of cancer models. Ample evidence has characterized the triggers, hallmarks, and functional outcomes of TIS in preclinical studies; however, limited evidence delineates TIS in clinical cancer (human tumor samples). We examined the literature that investigated the induction of TIS in samples derived from human cancers and highlighted the major findings that suggested that TIS represents a main constituent of tumor biology. The most frequently utilized approach to identify TIS in human cancers was to investigate the protein expression of senescence-associated markers (such as cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, Ki67, DNA damage repair response markers, DEC1, and DcR1) via immunohistochemical techniques using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples and/or testing the upregulation of Senescence-Associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) in frozen sections of unfixed tumor samples. Collectively, and in studies where the extent of TIS was determined, TIS was detected in 31-66% of tumors exposed to various forms of chemotherapy. Moreover, TIS was not only limited to both malignant and non-malignant components of tumoral tissue but was also identified in samples of normal (non-transformed) tissue upon chemo- or radiotherapy exposure. Nevertheless, the available evidence continues to be limited and requires a more rigorous assessment of in vivo senescence based on novel approaches and more reliable molecular signatures. The accurate assessment of TIS will be beneficial for determining its relevant contribution to the overall outcome of cancer therapy and the potential translatability of senotherapeutics.

Abstract
Aberrant autophagy of the endoplasmic reticulum (reticulophagy) is engaged in diverse pathological disorders. Herein, we reported sensitive imaging of reticulophagy with ER-Green-proRed, a diad combining a solvatochromic entity of trifluoromethylated naphthalimide for long-term ER tracking by green fluorescence and an entity of rhodamine-lactam fluorogenic to lysosomal acidity. Stringently accumulated in the ER to give green fluorescence, ER-Green-proRed exhibits robust red fluorescence upon codelivery with the ER subdomain into lysosomes. The relevance of turn-on red fluorescence to reticulophagy was validated by reticulophagy modulated by starvation, reticulophagic receptors, and autophagy inhibition. This imaging method was successfully employed to discern reticulophagy induced by various pharmacological agents. These results show the potential of ER-targeted pH probes, as exemplified by ER-Green-proRed, to image reticulophagy and to identify reticulophagy inducers.

Abstract
Seminoma is the most common type of testicular germ cell tumour and is highly sensitive to cisplatin therapy, which has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we comprehensively monitored dynamic changes of TCam-2 cells after cisplatin treatment. At an early stage, we found that both low and high concentrations of cisplatin induced the S-phase arrest in TCam-2 cells. By contrast, the G0G1 arrest was caused by cisplatin in teratoma NTERA-2 cells. Afterwards, high concentrations of cisplatin promoted the extrinsic apoptosis and high expressions of related genes (Fas/FasL-caspase-8/-3) in TCam-2 cells. However, when decreasing the cisplatin, the apoptotic cells were significantly reduced, and accompanied by cells showing senescence-like morphology, positive SA-β-gal staining and up-regulation of senescence-related genes (p53, p21 and p16). Furthermore, the cell cycle analysis revealed that most of the senescent TCam-2 cells were irreversibly arrested in the G2M phase. G2M arrest was also observed in NTERA-2 cells treated with a low concentration of cisplatin, while no senescence-related phenotype was discovered. In addition, we detected the γ-H2AX, a DNA damage marker protein, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and found both of which were elevated with the increase of cisplatin in TCam-2 cells. In conclusion, the extrinsic apoptosis and senescence are involved in the growth kinetics of TCam-2 cells to cisplatin, which provide some implications for studies on cisplatin and seminoma.

Abstract
Plasticity of tumor cells (multitude of molecular regulation pathways) allows them to evade cytocidal effects of chemo- and/or radiation therapy. Metabolic adaptation of the surviving cells is based on transcriptional reprogramming. Similarly to the process of natural cell aging, specific features of the survived tumor cells comprise the therapy-induced senescence phenotype. Tumor cells with this phenotype differ from the parental cells since they become less responsive to drugs and form aggressive progeny. Importance of the problem is explained by the general biological significance of transcriptional reprogramming as a mechanism of adaptation to stress, and by the emerging potential of its pharmacological targeting. In this review we analyze the mechanisms of regulation of the therapy-induced tumor cell senescence, as well as new drug combinations aimed to prevent this clinically unfavorable phenomenon.

Abstract
Cancer progression is supported by the cross-talk between tumor cells and the surrounding stroma. In this context, senescent cells in the tumor microenvironment contribute to the development of a pro-inflammatory milieu and the acquisition of aggressive traits by cancer cells. Anticancer treatments induce cellular senescence (therapy-induced senescence, TIS) in both tumor and non-cancerous cells, contributing to many detrimental side effects of therapies. Thus, we focused on the effects of chemotherapy on the stromal compartment of prostate and ovarian cancer. We demonstrated that anticancer chemotherapeutics, regardless of their specific mechanism of action, promote a senescent phenotype in stromal fibroblasts, resulting in metabolic alterations and secretion of paracrine factors, sustaining the invasive and clonogenic potential of both prostate and ovarian cancer cells. The clearance of senescent stromal cells, through senolytic drug treatment, reverts the malignant phenotype of tumor cells. The clinical relevance of TIS was validated in ovarian and prostate cancer patients, highlighting increased accumulation of lipofuscin aggregates, a marker of the senescent phenotype, in the stromal compartment of tissues from chemotherapy-treated patients. These data provide new insights into the potential efficacy of combining traditional anticancer strategies with innovative senotherapy to potentiate anticancer treatments and overcome the adverse effects of chemotherapy.

Abstract
Aging represents the major risk factor for the development of cancer and many other diseases. Recent findings show that normal tissues become riddled with expanded clones that are frequently driven by cancer‐associated mutations in an aging‐dependent fashion. Additional studies show how aged tissue microenvironments promote the initiation and progression of malignancies, while young healthy tissues actively suppress the outgrowth of malignant clones. Here, we discuss conserved mechanisms that eliminate poorly functioning or potentially malignant cells from our tissues to maintain organismal health and fitness. Natural selection acts to preserve tissue function and prevent disease to maximize reproductive success but these mechanisms wane as reproduction becomes less likely. The ensuing age‐dependent tissue decline can impact the shape and direction of clonal somatic evolution, with lifestyle and exposures influencing its pace and intensity. We also consider how aging‐ and exposure‐dependent clonal expansions of “oncogenic” mutations might both increase cancer risk late in life and contribute to tissue decline and non‐malignant disease. Still, we can marvel at the ability of our bodies to avoid cancers and other diseases despite the accumulation of billions of cells with cancer‐associated mutations.

Abstract
Cell death, cell cycle arrest and cellular senescence are three distinct cellular responses that can be induced by oncogene activation and diverse anti-cancer agents, and this often requires the action of the tumour suppressor TP53. Within a cell population, or even within an individual cell, these processes are not necessarily mutually exclusive. It is therefore important to measure all these processes simultaneously. However, current assays generally visualise only one or at best two responses, often only detecting the dominant one. Here, we present a novel flow cytometric assay that allows simultaneous assessment of cell viability and cell cycling through measurement of DNA content and DNA synthesis, and markers of cell senescence at the single cell level. We demonstrate that this assay can be performed on both human and murine cells, that are either cancerous or non-transformed, and can help to dissect complex cell fate decisions. We believe that this experimental tool will be useful for the study of diverse biological processes.

Abstract
Pathways regulating cell senescence and cell cycle underlie many processes associated with ageing and age-related pathologies, and they also mediate cellular responses to exposure to stressors. Meanwhile, there are central mechanisms of the regulation of stress responses that induce/enhance or weaken the response of the whole organism, such as hormones of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, thymic hormones, and the pineal hormone melatonin. Although there are many analyses considering relationships between the HPA axis and organism ageing, we found no systematic analyses of relationships between the neuroendocrine regulators of stress and inflammation and intracellular mechanisms controlling cell cycle, senescence, and apoptosis. Here, we provide a review of the effects of neuroendocrine regulators on these mechanisms. Our analysis allowed us to postulate a multilevel system of central regulators involving neurotransmitters, glucocorticoids, melatonin, and the thymic hormones. This system finely regulates the cell cycle and metabolic/catabolic processes depending on the level of systemic stress, stage of stress response, and energy capabilities of the body, shifting the balance between cell cycle progression, cell cycle stopping, senescence, and apoptosis. These processes and levels of regulation should be considered when studying the mechanisms of ageing and the proliferation on the level of the whole organism.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a complex and multistep biological process which cells can undergo in response to different stresses. Referring to a highly stable cell cycle arrest, cellular senescence can influence a multitude of biological processes-both physiologically and pathologically. While phenotypically diverse, characteristics of senescence include the expression of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype, cell cycle arrest factors, senescence-associated β-galactosidase, morphogenesis, and chromatin remodelling. Persistent senescence is associated with pathologies such as aging, while transient senescence is associated with beneficial programmes, such as limb patterning. With these implications, senescence-based translational studies, namely senotherapy and pro-senescence therapy, are well underway to find the cure to complicated diseases such as cancer and atherosclerosis. Being a subject of major interest only in the recent decades, much remains to be studied, such as regarding the identification of unique biomarkers of senescent cells. This review attempts to provide a comprehensive understanding of the diverse literature on senescence, and discuss the knowledge we have on senescence thus far.

Abstract
Overlapping risks for cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the two leading causes of mortality worldwide, suggest a shared biology between these diseases. The role of senescence in the development of cancer and CVD has been established. However, its role as the intersection between these diseases remains unclear. Senescence was originally characterized by an irreversible cell cycle arrest after a high number of divisions, namely replicative senescence (RS). However, it is becoming clear that senescence can also be instigated by cellular stress, so-called stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS). Telomere shortening is a hallmark of RS. The contribution of telomere DNA damage and subsequent DNA damage response/repair to SIPS has also been suggested. Although cellular senescence can mediate cell cycle arrest, senescent cells can also remain metabolically active and secrete cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and reactive oxygen species (ROS), so-called senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). The involvement of SASP in both cancer and CVD has been established. In patients with cancer or CVD, SASP is induced by various stressors including cancer treatments, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and ROS. Therefore, SASP can be the intersection between cancer and CVD. Importantly, the conventional concept of senescence as the mediator of cell cycle arrest has been challenged, as it was recently reported that chemotherapy-induced senescence can reprogram senescent cancer cells to acquire “stemness” (SAS: senescence-associated stemness). SAS allows senescent cancer cells to escape cell cycle arrest with strongly enhanced clonogenic growth capacity. SAS supports senescent cells to promote both cancer and CVD, particularly in highly stressful conditions such as cancer treatments, myocardial infarction, and heart failure. As therapeutic advances have increased overlapping risk factors for cancer and CVD, to further understand their interaction may provide better prevention, earlier detection, and safer treatment. Thus, it is critical to study the mechanisms by which these senescence pathways (SAS/SASP) are induced and regulated in both cancer and CVD.

Vascul Pharmacol 2021; 138:106855.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Doxorubicin (DOX) is a chemotherapeutic agent used in cancer treatment. Its use is limited by later toxicity to the cardiovascular system (CVS). Cellular senescence has been proposed as one mechanism of DOX toxicity. It has also been suggested that senescence reduction can improve the condition in many pathologies. We hypothesised that vildagliptin treatment can reduce senescence and thus improve the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle (VSM) in the aorta of a rat DOX model. METHODS The rats received DOX and were treated with vildagliptin for 6 weeks. Thereafter, the rats were sacrificed, and the aorta prepared for measurements of VSM relaxation and RNA isolation to detect the level of senescence markers. To further prove the antisenescence effect of the main vildagliptin effector glucagon-like peptide 1(GLP-1), VSM cells (VSMCs) were incubated with DOX and treated with GLP-1. Subsequently, senescence was detected by senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) and by the presence of senescence markers. RESULTS DOX in rats caused diminished relaxation of VSM to sodium nitrate and caused an increase in the senescence mRNA markers p16Ink4a and p27Kip1 and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) IL-6 and IL-8. Vildagliptin treatment led to improved relaxation and a reduction in senescence and SASP markers. Furthermore, in VSMCs DOX increased SA-β-gal activity, p16Ink4a, p27Kip1, IL-6 and IL-8, and GLP1 treatment led to a decrease of both senescence and SASP markers. CONCLUSION In summary we conclude that vildagliptin can reduce senescence and improve relaxation of vascular smooth muscle in the aorta of DOX-treated rats, and GLP-1 can reduce senescence of DOX-treated VSMCs. These data suggest that incretin-based drugs are promising candidates for patients suffering from late doxorubicin cardiovascular toxicity.

Abstract
Cancer treatment has been associated with accelerated aging that can lead to early-onset health complications typically experienced by older populations. In particular, cancer survivors have an increased risk of developing premature cardiovascular complications. In the last two decades, cellular senescence has been proposed as an important mechanism of premature cardiovascular diseases. Cancer treatments, specifically anthracyclines and radiation, have been shown to induce senescence in different types of cardiovascular cells. Additionally, clinical studies identified increased systemic markers of senescence in cancer survivors. Preclinical research has demonstrated the potential of several approaches to mitigate cancer therapy-induced senescence. However, strategies to prevent and/or treat therapy-induced cardiovascular senescence have not yet been translated to the clinic. In this review, we will discuss how therapy-induced senescence can contribute to cardiovascular complications. Thereafter, we will summarize the current in vitro, in vivo, and clinical evidence regarding cancer therapy-induced cardiovascular senescence. Then, we will discuss interventional strategies that have the potential to protect against therapy-induced cardiovascular senescence. To conclude, we will highlight challenges and future research directions to mitigate therapy-induced cardiovascular senescence in cancer survivors.

Abstract
Tumor cells can undergo diverse responses to cancer therapy. While apoptosis represents the most desirable outcome, tumor cells can alternatively undergo autophagy and senescence. Both autophagy and senescence have the potential to make complex contributions to tumor cell survival via both cell autonomous and cell non-autonomous pathways. The induction of autophagy and senescence in tumor cells, preclinically and clinically, either individually or concomitantly, has generated interest in the utilization of autophagy modulating and senolytic therapies to target autophagy and senescence, respectively. This chapter summarizes the current evidence for the promotion of autophagy and senescence as fundamental responses to cancer therapy and discusses the complexity of their functional contributions to cell survival and disease outcomes. We also highlight current modalities designed to exploit autophagy and senescence in efforts to improve the efficacy of cancer therapy.

Abstract
Recently, the chemotherapeutic drug-induced cellular senescence has been considered a promising anti-cancer approach. The drug-induced senescence, which shows both similar and different hallmarks from replicative and oncogene-induced senescence, was regarded as a key determinant of tumor response to chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo. To date, an amount of effective chemotherapeutic drugs that can evoke senescence in cancer cells have been reported. The targets of these drugs differ substantially, including senescence signaling pathways, DNA replication process, DNA damage pathways, epigenetic modifications, microtubule polymerization, senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and so on. By summarizing senescence-inducing small molecule drugs together with their specific traits and corresponding mechanisms, this review is devoted to inform scientists to develop novel therapeutic strategies against cancer through inducing senescence.

Abstract
For the past two decades, cellular senescence has been recognized as a central component of the tumor cell response to chemotherapy and radiation. Traditionally, this form of senescence, termed Therapy-Induced Senescence (TIS), was linked to extensive nuclear damage precipitated by classical genotoxic chemotherapy. However, a number of other forms of therapy have also been shown to induce senescence in tumor cells independently of direct genomic damage. This review attempts to provide a comprehensive summary of both conventional and targeted anticancer therapeutics that have been shown to induce senescence in vitro and in vivo. Still, the utility of promoting senescence as a therapeutic endpoint remains under debate. Since senescence represents a durable form of growth arrest, it might be argued that senescence is a desirable outcome of cancer therapy. However, accumulating evidence suggesting that cells have the capacity to escape from TIS would support an alternative conclusion, that senescence provides an avenue whereby tumor cells can evade the potentially lethal action of anticancer drugs, allowing the cells to enter a temporary state of dormancy that eventually facilitates disease recurrence, often in a more aggressive state. Furthermore, TIS is now strongly connected to tumor cell remodeling, potentially to tumor dormancy, acquiring more ominous malignant phenotypes and accounts for several untoward adverse effects of cancer therapy. Here, we argue that senescence represents a barrier to effective anticancer treatment, and discuss the emerging efforts to identify and exploit agents with senolytic properties as a strategy for elimination of the persistent residual surviving tumor cell population, with the goal of mitigating the tumor-promoting influence of the senescent cells and to thereby reduce the likelihood of cancer relapse.

Abstract
The p53 transcription factor plays a critical role in cellular responses to stress. Its activation in response to DNA damage leads to cell growth arrest, allowing for DNA repair, or directs cellular senescence or apoptosis, thereby maintaining genome integrity. Senescence is a permanent cell-cycle arrest that has a crucial role in aging, and it also represents a robust physiological antitumor response, which counteracts oncogenic insults. In addition, senescent cells can also negatively impact the surrounding tissue microenvironment and the neighboring cells by secreting pro-inflammatory cytokines, ultimately triggering tissue dysfunction and/or unfavorable outcomes. This review focuses on the characteristics of senescence and on the recent advances in the contribution of p53 to cellular senescence. Moreover, we also discuss the p53-mediated regulation of several pathophysiological microenvironments that could be associated with senescence and its development.

Abstract
Oxidative stress‑induced cellular senescence is an important contributor to the pathogenesis of age‑related macular degeneration (AMD). Characteristics of premature cellular senescence include a loss of proliferation, change in cell shape, irreversible cell cycle arrest, and elevated senescence‑associated β‑galactosidase (SA‑β‑gal) activity. It was hypothesized that lutein may have anti‑senescence potential and may be useful as a treatment for AMD. In the present study, premature cellular senescence was induced in ARPE‑19 cells via treatment with H2O2 and the effects of lutein application were confirmed by observing cell morphology, lysosome contents, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and SA‑β‑gal activity, and cell cycle progression. The protein expression was also analyzed via western blotting in order to identify the affected signaling pathways. The results revealed that H2O2 treatment induced premature cellular senescence in ARPE‑19 cells, as evidenced by an increased production of ROS and SA‑β‑gal, altered lysosome contents, changed cellular morphology and arrested cell cycle progression. However, when treated with lutein, ARPE‑19 cells were effectively protected from these H2O2‑induced effects. Western blot analysis revealed that lutein induced the expression of heme oxygenase‑1, NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1, sirtuin (SIRT)‑1, and SIRT3. Together, the results indicated that lutein protects cells from cellular senescence induced by oxidative stress; therefore, it may be able to suppress the progression of AMD. In addition, our increased understanding of the pathways through which lutein acts is useful for the development of novel therapies for the treatment of oxidative stress‑associated retinal disease.

Abstract
Aims Resident and peripherally derived glioma associated microglia/macrophages (GAMM) play a key role in driving tumour progression, angiogenesis, invasion and attenuating host immune responses. Differentiating these cells’ origins is challenging and current preclinical models such as irradiation‐based adoptive transfer, parabiosis and transgenic mice have limitations. We aimed to develop a novel nonmyeloablative transplantation (NMT) mouse model that permits high levels of peripheral chimerism without blood‐brain barrier (BBB) damage or brain infiltration prior to tumour implantation. Methods NMT dosing was determined in C57BL/6J or Pep3/CD45.1 mice conditioned with concentrations of busulfan ranging from 25 mg/kg to 125 mg/kg. Donor haematopoietic cells labelled with eGFP or CD45.2 were injected via tail vein. Donor chimerism was measured in peripheral blood, bone marrow and spleen using flow cytometry. BBB integrity was assessed with anti‐IgG and anti‐fibrinogen antibodies. Immunocompetent chimerised animals were orthotopically implanted with murine glioma GL‐261 cells. Central and peripheral cell contributions were assessed using immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry. GAMM subpopulation analysis of peripheral cells was performed using Ly6C/MHCII/MerTK/CD64. Results NMT achieves >80% haematopoietic chimerism by 12 weeks without BBB damage and normal life span. Bone marrow derived cells (BMDC) and peripheral macrophages accounted for approximately 45% of the GAMM population in GL‐261 implanted tumours. Existing markers such as CD45 high/low proved inaccurate to determine central and peripheral populations while Ly6C/MHCII/MerTK/CD64 reliably differentiated GAMM subpopulations in chimerised and unchimerised mice. Conclusion NMT is a powerful method for dissecting tumour microglia and macrophage subpopulations and can guide further investigation of BMDC subsets in glioma and neuro‐inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
To date, dozens of stress‐induced cellular senescence phenotypes have been reported. These cellular senescence states may differ substantially from each other, as well as from replicative senescence through the presence of specific senescence features. Here, we attempted to catalog virtually all of the cellular senescence‐like states that can be induced by low molecular weight compounds. We summarized biological markers, molecular pathways involved in senescence establishment, and specific traits of cellular senescence states induced by more than fifty small molecule compounds.

Abstract
This study reports a green approach for synthesis of gold nanoparticles using Gardenia jasminoides extract, and specifically, can potentially enhance anti senescence activity. Biological synthesis of gold nanoparticles is ecofriendly and effective for the development of environmentally sustainable nanoparticles compared with existing methods. Here, we developed a simple, fast, efficient, and ecofriendly approach to the synthesis of gold nanoparticles by means of a Gardenia jasminoides extract. These G. jasminoides extract-capped gold nanoparticles (GJ-GNPs) were characterized by UV-vis, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Furrier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The synthesized GJ-GNPs turned red and showed maximal absorbance at 540nm. Thus, GJ-GNPs were synthesized successfully. We hypothesized that GJ-GNPs would protect ARPE19 cells from hydrogen peroxide-induced premature senescence. SA-β-gal activity was elevated in hydrogen peroxide-treated cells, however, this effect was attenuated by GJ-GNP treatment. Moreover, compared with the normal control, hydrogen peroxide treatment significantly increased lysosome content of the cells and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). GJ-GNPs effectively attenuated the increase in lysosome content and ROS production in these senescent cells. According to cell cycle analysis, G2/M arrest was promoted by hydrogen peroxide treatment in ARPE19 cells, however, this change was reversed by GJ-GNPs. Western blot analysis showed that treatment with GJ-GNPs increased the expression of p53, p21, SIRT3, HO-1, and NQO1 in senescent cells. Our findings should advance the understanding of premature senescence and may lead to therapeutic use of GJ-GNPs in retina-related regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a phenomenon occurring when cells are no longer able to divide even after treatment with growth stimuli. Because senescent cells are typically associated with aging and age-related diseases, cellular senescence is hypothesized to contribute to the age-related decline in reproductive function. However, some data suggest that senescent cells may also be important for normal physiological functions during pregnancy. Herein, we review the positive and negative effects of cellular senescence on female reproductive aging and pregnancy. We discuss how senescent cells accelerate female reproductive aging by promoting the decline in the number of ovarian follicles and increasing complications during pregnancy. We also describe how cellular senescence plays an important role in placental and fetal development as a beneficial process, ensuring proper homeostasis during pregnancy.

Abstract
The central nervous system (CNS) is a very unique system with multiple features that differentiate it from systemic tissues. One of the most captivating aspects of its distinctive nature is the presence of the blood brain barrier (BBB), which seals it from the periphery. Therefore, to preserve tissue homeostasis, the CNS has to rely heavily on resident cells such as microglia. These pivotal cells of the mononuclear lineage have important and dichotomous roles according to various neurological disorders. However, certain insults can overwhelm microglia as well as compromising the integrity of the BBB, thus allowing the infiltration of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). The use of myeloablation and bone marrow transplantation allowed the generation of chimeric mice to study resident microglia and infiltrated BMDM separately. This breakthrough completely revolutionized the way we captured these 2 types of mononuclear phagocytic cells. We now realize that microglia and BMDM exhibit distinct features and appear to perform different tasks. Since these cells are central in several pathologies, it is crucial to use chimeric mice to analyze their functions and mechanisms to possibly harness them for therapeutic purpose. This review will shed light on the advent of this methodology and how it allowed deciphering the ontology of microglia and its maintenance during adulthood. We will also compare the different strategies used to perform myeloablation. Finally, we will discuss the landmark studies that used chimeric mice to characterize the roles of microglia and BMDM in several neurological disorders.

Abstract
In response to a variety of stresses, mammalian cells undergo a persistent proliferative arrest known as cellular senescence. Many senescence-inducing stressors are potentially oncogenic, strengthening the notion that senescence evolved alongside apoptosis to suppress tumorigenesis. In contrast to apoptosis, senescent cells are stably viable and have the potential to influence neighboring cells through secreted soluble factors, which are collectively known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). However, the SASP has been associated with structural and functional tissue and organ deterioration and may even have tumor-promoting effects, raising the interesting evolutionary question of why apoptosis failed to outcompete senescence as a superior cell fate option. Here, we discuss the advantages that the senescence program may have over apoptosis as a tumor protective mechanism, as well as non-neoplastic functions that may have contributed to its evolution. We also review emerging evidence for the idea that senescent cells are present transiently early in life and are largely beneficial for development, regeneration and homeostasis, and only in advanced age do senescent cells accumulate to an organism's detriment.

Abstract
BMSCs (bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells) and ADSCs (adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells) are virtually identical in cell surface marker profile and differentiation potential. These cell populations have promising characteristics for clinical application. We have investigated the sensitivity of these cell populations to various chemotherapeutic agents by testing the inhibition of cell proliferation, low molecular DNA bands formation, in situ apoptosis, apoptosis-related gene expression and cell senescence after treatment. BU (busulfan), methotrexate and doxorubicin treatment led to a marked and dose-dependent reduction in cell viability compared with 5-FU (5-fluorouracil) treatment. Different expression patterns of apoptosis-related genes were found in the BMSCs and ADSCs following treatment with the agents, but no low molecular mass DNA bands were detected. BMSCs had a higher percentage of apoptotic and senescent cells following treatment with chemotherapeutic agents compared with ADSCs. These findings suggest that these two cell populations respond differently to chemotherapy treatment. ADSCs are more resistant than BMSCs to chemotherapy-induced senescence and apoptosis, indicating that they might be more advantageous to use in the clinic than BMSCs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The antineoplastic bifunctional-alkylating agent busulfan (Bu) induces developmental anomalies. We examined histopathological changes in the molar roots of rats that received Bu at different stages of root formation. DESIGN At different developmental stages, i.e., on postnatal days (P) 13, 15, and 19, rats were administered 7.5 mg/kg of Bu dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and then killed on P 30. After micro-computed tomography analysis, the maxillary first molars underwent immunohistochemical analysis for cytokeratin 14 (CK14), nestin, and dentin sialoprotein (Dsp). This was followed by histomorphometric analysis. RESULTS The rats receiving Bu at an early stage (i.e., P 13 and P 15) showed osteodentin formation and complete destruction of the Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS). Cells around osteodentin showed nestin and Dsp immunoreactivity. The root lengths in rats treated with Bu at P 13 (1228.44 ± 62.17 μm) and P 15 (1536.08 ± 109.71 μm) were lower than that in the control rats (1674.10 ± 40 μm). A narrowed apical foramen and an increased amount of osteodentin were also present, depending on the rat's age at the time of treatment (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Busulfan treatment in juvenile rats resulted in abnormal root development, depending on the stage at which Bu was administered. This abnormal development may result from the destruction of the HERS. The administration of Bu caused a shortage of HERS cells, which are required for normal root development. This disturbs root formation, resulting in osteodentin formation and a narrowed apex foramen.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy for neurological disorders relies on transmigration of donor-derived monocytes to the brain, where they can engraft as microglia and deliver therapeutic proteins. Many mouse studies use whole-body irradiation to investigate brain transmigration pathways, but chemotherapy is generally used clinically. The current evidence for transmigration to the brain after chemotherapy is conflicting. We compared hematopoietic donor cell brain engraftment after bone marrow (BM) transplants in busulfan- or irradiation-conditioned mice. Significantly more donor-derived microglial cells engrafted posttransplant in busulfan-conditioned brain compared with the irradiated, in both the short and long term. Although total Iba-1(+) microglial content was increased in irradiated brain in the short term, it was similar between groups over long-term engraftment. MCP-1, a key regulator of monocyte transmigration, showed long-term elevation in busulfan-conditioned brain, whereas irradiated brains showed long-term elevation of the proinflammatory chemokine interleukin 1α (IL-1α), with increased in situ proliferation of resident microglia, and significant increases in the relative number of amoeboid activated microglia in the brain. This has implications for the choice of conditioning regimen to promote hematopoietic cell brain engraftment and the relevance of irradiation in mouse models of transplantation.

Abstract
Busulfan, an antineoplastic bifunctional-alkylating agent, is known to induce developmental anomalies and fetal neurotoxicity. We previously reported that busulfan induced p53-dependent neural progenitor cell apoptosis in fetal rat brain (Ohira et al., 2012). The present study was carried out to clarify the characteristics and sequence of busulfan-induced pathological changes in infant rat brain. Six-day-old male infant rats were treated with 10, 20, 30 or 50 mg/kg of busulfan, and their brains were examined at 1, 2, 4, 7, and 14 days after treatment (DAT). As a result, histopathological changes were selectively detected in the external granular layer (EGL), deep cerebellar nuclei (DCN) and cerebellar white matter (CWM) in the cerebellum with dose-dependent severity but not in the cerebrum. In the normal infant rat cerebellum, granular cells in the EGL were proliferating and moving to the internal granular layer during the normal developmental process. In the EGL of the busulfan group, apoptotic granular cells increased at 2 DAT simultaneously with increased numbers of p53- and p21-positive cells while mitotic granular cells decreased, suggesting an occurrence of p53-related apoptosis and depression of proliferative activity in granular cells. In the DCN, apoptotic glial cells increased at 2 DAT and glial cells showing abnormal mitosis increased at 4 DAT. In the CWN, edematous change accompanying a few apoptotic cells was found in the CWN, especially in the parafolliculus (PFL), from 2 to 7 DAT. The present study demonstrated for the first time the characteristics and sequence of busulfan-induced pathological changes in infant rat cerebellum.

Irinotecan induces senescence and apoptosis in colonic cells in vitro. Toxicol Lett 2012; 214:1-8.

Abstract
Irinotecan (CPT-11) is topoisomerase I inhibitor used in the treatment of disseminated colorectal cancer. In colon cancer cells it induces DNA damage which leads to cytotoxicity with ensuing apoptosis or premature senescence. Despite its clinical use and efficiency in malignant colonocytes, its effects in normal colonic cells are relatively underexplored. In this work we report that CPT-11 induces dose-dependent cytotoxicity which results in apoptosis and premature senescence whose occurrence nevertheless varies in relation to the type of exposed cells. In normal colonic epithelial cells (NCM) the prevailing type of response is apoptosis whereas in normal colonic fibroblasts (NCF) it is premature senescence. Further analyses showed that CPT-11 induced in both types of cells DNA damage and activated stress response pathways including p53 and p16 but with varying activity of stress kinase p38 and selected stress-associated microRNAs. Epithelial cells upregulated the expression of p53, which was subsequently specifically phosphorylated, massively activated p38 and initiated mitochondrial, caspase-dependent apoptosis. These events occurred in the presence of moderately increased expression of miR-34a only. Conversely, in colonic fibroblasts p38 was only moderately activated, p53 as well as p16 expressions were upregulated in the presence of increased expression of miR-34a, miR-128a and miR-449a. Caspase-dependent apoptosis was found only in a minority of treated cells and the premature senescence phenotype was prevailing. Specific inhibition further proved that p53-dependent as well as independent mechanisms might be responsible for these cell type-specific differences.

Abstract
The sequence of neural progenitor cell (NPC) damage induced in fetal rat brain by transplacental exposure to busulfan, an antineoplastic bifunctional-alkylating agent, on gestational day 13 was examined by immunohistochemical and real-time RT-PCR analyses. Following busulfan treatment, pyknotic NPCs first appeared in the medial layer and then extended to the dorsal layer of the ventricular zone (VZ) of the telencephalon. Pyknotic NPCs that were immunohistochemically positive for cleaved caspase-3, i.e. apoptotic NPCs, began to increase at 24 h after treatment, peaked at 48 h, and returned to the control levels at 96 h. On the other hand, the index (%) of phospho-histone H3-positive NPCs, i.e. mitotic NPCs, and that of BrdU-positive NPCs, i.e. S-phase cells, decreased in accordance with the increase in the index of apoptotic NPCs. Prior to the peak time of apoptotic NPCs, the indices of p53- and p21-positive NPCs peaked at 36 h. In addition, the expression levels of p21 and Puma (p53-target genes) mRNAs were elevated in real-time RT-PCR analysis. These findings indicated that busulfan not only induced apoptosis through the p53-mediated intrinsic pathway but also inhibited cell proliferation in NPCs, resulting in a reduction of the width of the telencephalon. On the other hand, in spite of up-regulation of p21 expression, the expression of cyclin D1, part of the cell cycle machinery of the G1/S transition, and the expression levels of Cdc20 and cyclin B1 which are involved in G2/M transition, showed no changes, giving no possible information of busulfan-induced cell cycle arrest in NPCs.

Abstract
Exposure to a moderate or high total-body dose of radiation induces not only acute bone marrow suppression but also residual (or long-term) bone marrow injury. The induction of residual bone marrow injury is primarily attributed to the induction of hematopoietic cell senescence by ionizing radiation. However, the mechanisms underlying radiation-induced hematopoietic cell senescence are not known and thus were investigated in the present study. Using a well-established long-term bone marrow cell culture system, we found that radiation induced hematopoietic cell senescence at least in part via activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38). This suggestion is supported by the finding that exposure to radiation selectively activated p38 in bone marrow hematopoietic cells. The activation was associated with a significant reduction in hematopoietic cell clonogenic function, an increased expression of p16(INK4a) (p16), and an elevated senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity. All these changes were attenuated by p38 inhibition with a specific p38 inhibitor, SB203580 (SB). Selective activation of p38 was also observed in bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) after mice were exposed to a sublethal total-body dose (6.5 Gy) of radiation. Treatment of the irradiated mice with SB after total-body irradiation (TBI) increased the frequencies of HSCs and hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) in their bone marrow and the clonogenic functions of the irradiated HSCs and HPCs. These findings suggest that activation of p38 plays a role in mediating radiation-induced hematopoietic cell senescence and residual bone marrow suppression.

Abstract
PURPOSE MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as critical regulators of many cellular pathways. Ionizing radiation (IR) exposure causes DNA damage and induces premature senescence. However, the role of miRNAs in IR-induced senescence has not been well defined. Thus, the purpose of this study was to identify and characterize senescence-associated miRNAs (SA-miRNAs) and to investigate the role of SA-miRNAs in IR-induced senescence. METHODS AND MATERIALS In human lung (WI-38) fibroblasts, premature senescence was induced either by IR or busulfan (BU) treatment, and replicative senescence was accomplished by serial passaging. MiRNA microarray were used to identify SA-miRNAs, and real-time reverse transcription (RT)-PCR validated the expression profiles of SA-miRNAs in various senescent cells. The role of SA-miRNAs in IR-induced senescence was characterized by knockdown of miRNA expression, using anti-miRNA oligonucleotides or by miRNA overexpression through the transfection of pre-miRNA mimics. RESULTS We identified eight SA-miRNAs, four of which were up-regulated (miR-152, -410, -431, and -493) and four which were down-regulated (miR-155, -20a, -25, and -15a), that are differentially expressed in both prematurely senescent (induced by IR or BU) and replicatively senescent WI-38 cells. Validation of the expression of these SA-miRNAs indicated that down-regulation of miR-155, -20a, -25, and -15a is a characteristic miRNA expression signature of cellular senescence. Functional analyses revealed that knockdown of miR-155 or miR-20a, but not miR-25 or miR-15a, markedly enhanced IR-induced senescence, whereas ectopic overexpression of miR-155 or miR-20a significantly inhibited senescence induction. Furthermore, our studies indicate that miR-155 modulates IR-induced senescence by acting downstream of the p53 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways and in part via regulating tumor protein 53-induced nuclear protein 1 (TP53INP1) expression. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that SA-miRNAs are involved in the regulation of IR-induced senescence, so targeting these miRNAs may be a novel approach for modulating cellular response to radiation exposure.

Abstract
Exposure to IR has been shown to induce the formation of senescence markers, a phenotype that coincides with lifelong delayed repair and regeneration of irradiated tissues. We hypothesized that IR-induced senescence markers could persist long-term in vivo, possibly contributing to the permanent reduction in tissue functionality. Here, we show that mouse tissues exposed to a sublethal dose of IR display persistent (up to 45 weeks, the maximum time analyzed) DNA damage foci and increased p16(INK4a) expression, two hallmarks of cellular senescence and aging. BrdU-labeling experiments revealed that IR-induced damaged cells are preferentially eliminated, at least partially, in a tissue-dependent manner. Unexpectedly, the accumulation of damaged cells was found to occur independent from the DNA damage response modulator p53, and from an intact immune system, as their levels were similar in wild-type and Rag2(-/-) gammaC(-/-) mice, the latter being deficient in T, B, and NK cells. Together, our results provide compelling evidence that exposure to IR induces long-term expression of senescence markers in vivo, an effect that may contribute to the reduced tissue functionality observed in cancer survivors.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is recognized as a critical cellular response to prolonged rounds of replication and environmental stresses. Its defining characteristics are arrested cell-cycle progression and the development of aberrant gene expression with proinflammatory behavior. Whereas the mechanistic events associated with senescence are generally well understood at the molecular level, the impact of senescence in vivo remains to be fully determined. In addition to the role of senescence as an antitumor mechanism, this review examines cellular senescence as a factor in organismal aging and age-related diseases, with particular emphasis on aberrant gene expression and abnormal paracrine signaling. Senescence as an emerging factor in tissue remodeling, wound repair, and infection is considered. In addition, the role of oxidative stress as a major mediator of senescence and the role of NAD(P)H oxidases and changes to intracellular GSH/GSSG status are reviewed. Recent findings indicate that senescence and the behavior of senescent cells are amenable to therapeutic intervention. As the in vivo significance of senescence becomes clearer, the challenge will be to modulate the adverse effects of senescence without increasing the risks of other diseases, such as cancer. The uncoupled relation between cell-cycle arrest and the senescent phenotype suggests that this is an achievable outcome.

Abstract
Blockade of Bcr-Abl by the inhibitor Imatinib has proven efficacious in the therapy of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). However resistance to the drug emerges at the advanced phases of the disease. Therefore, novel therapy models remained to be designed. We have developed a novel dual targeted agent termed "combi-molecule" designed to not only block Bcr-Abl but also damage DNA. ZRF1, the first optimized prototype of the approach, was "programmed" to degrade into another inhibitor ZRF0 plus a methyl diazonium species. It was approximately 2-fold stronger Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor than Imatinib and a more potent DNA-damaging agent than Temodal. In the p53 wild-type Mo7p210 cells, the potency of ZRF1 was approximately 1,000-fold superior to that of the equieffective combinations of Imatinib plus Temodal. More importantly, its superior potency over Imatinib was more pronounced in Bcr-Abl-positive cells coexpressing wild-type p53. Studies to rationalize these results showed that, through its Bcr-Abl inhibitory function, it down-regulated p53. However, sufficient level of the latter protein was available for transactivating p21 and Bax, which are required for cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The results suggest that, in p53 wild-type cells, apoptosis is induced not only through Bcr-Abl inhibition but also through the p53-controlled DNA-damaging pathway, leading to an additive effect that translates into enhanced cell death. The study conclusively showed that p53 is a major determinant for the cytotoxic advantages of the novel combi-molecular approach in CML, a disease in which 70% to 85% of all the cases express wild-type p53.

Abstract
Busulfan (Bu) resistance is a major obstacle to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) of patients with chronic or acute myelogenous leukemia (CML or AML). We used gene expression analysis to identify cellular factors underlying Bu resistance. Two Bu-resistant leukemia cell lines were established, characterized and analyzed for differentially expressed genes. The CML B5/Bu250(6) cells are 4.5-fold more resistant to Bu than their parental B5 cells. The AML KBM3/Bu250(6) cells are 4.0-fold more Bu-resistant than KBM3 parental cells. Both resistant sublines evade Bu-mediated G2-arrest and apoptosis with altered regulations of CHK2 and CDC2 proteins, constitutively up-regulated anti-apoptotic genes (BCL-X(L), BCL2, BCL2L10, BAG3 and IAP2/BIRC3) and down-regulated pro-apoptotic genes (BIK, BNIP3, and LTBR). Bu-induced apoptosis is partly mediated by activation of caspases; use of the inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK completely abrogated PARP1 cleavage and reduced apoptosis by approximately 50%. Furthermore, Bu resistance in these cells may be attributed in part to up-regulation of HSP90 protein and activation of STAT3. The inhibition of HSP90 with geldanamycin attenuated phosphorylated STAT3 and made B5/Bu250(6) and KBM3/Bu250(6) more Bu-sensitive. The analysis of cells derived from patients classified as either clinically resistant or sensitive to high-dose Bu-based chemotherapy indicated alterations in gene expression that were analogous to those observed in the in vitro model cell lines, confirming the potential clinical relevance of this model for Bu resistance.
