Abstract
Since the 12 major signs of aging were revealed in 2023, people's interpretation of aging will go further, which is of great significance for understanding the occurrence, development, and intervention in the aging process. As one of the 12 major signs of aging, cellular senescence refers to the process in which the proliferation and differentiation ability of cells decrease under stress stimulation or over time, often manifested as changes in cell morphology, cell cycle arrest, and decreased metabolic function. Interferon (IFN), as a secreted ligand for specific cell surface receptors, can trigger the transcription of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) and play an important role in cellular senescence. In addition, IFN serves as an important component of SASP, and the activation of the IFN signaling pathway has been shown to contribute to cell apoptosis and senescence. It is expected to delay cellular senescence by linking IFN with cellular senescence and studying the effects of IFN on cellular senescence and its mechanism. This article provides a review of the research on the relationship between IFN and cellular senescence by consulting relevant literature.

Eur Arch Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 2024:10.1007/s00406-024-01792-1. [PMID: 38578435 DOI: 10.1007/s00406-024-01792-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
Post-COVID syndrome (PCS) is characterized by a variety of non-specific symptoms. One of the leading symptoms is fatigue. So far, there is no evidence-based causal therapy established and treatment of PCS is primarily symptom-oriented. The Clinic for Internal and Integrative Medicine in Bamberg, Germany, offers a comprehensive multimodal integrative inpatient therapy for PCS patients. Within a prospective uncontrolled observational study, the results of N = 79 patients were analysed. Post-COVID fatigue patients were hospitalized for up to 14 days. The treatment consists of individual modules depending on the patient's needs. It includes a wide range of integrative non-pharmacological treatment modalities. Outcomes were assessed before and after the inpatient treatment as well as 6 months after discharge from the hospital. Results show that fatigue of post-COVID patients in this study (M = 76.30, SD = 10.18, N = 64) was initially significantly higher than in the subsample "women aged 60-92 years" of the general German population (M = 51.5, Schwarz et al. [Schwarz et al. in Onkologie 26:140-144, 2003]; T(63) = 19.50, p < .001). Fatigue was significantly and clinically relevant reduced directly after discharge (MT1 = 76.21, SD = 11.38, N = 42; MT2 = 66.57, SD = 15.55, N = 42), F(1, 41) = 19.80, p < .001, partial eta squared = .326, as well as six months after discharge (MT3 = 65.31, SD = 17.20, N = 42), F(1, 41), p < .001, partial eta squared = .371. Additionally, self-reported ability to work (NRS, 0-10) improved significantly from admission (MT1 = 2.54, SD = 2.23, N = 39) to discharge (MT2 = 4.26, SD = 2.60, N = 39), F(1, 38) = 26.37, p < .001, partial eta squared = .410), as well as to six months later (MT3 = 4.41, SD = 3.23, N = 39), F(1, 38) = 15.00, p < .001, partial eta squared = .283. The study showed that patients suffering from chronic post-COVID syndrome for several months can achieve a significant improvement in their leading fatigue symptoms and a significant improvement in the subjective assessment of their ability to work through a comprehensive two-week multimodal integrative inpatient program.

Abstract
The formation of new blood vessels, called angiogenesis, is an essential pathophysiological process in which several families of regulators have been implicated. Among these, vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA; also known as VEGF) and its two tyrosine kinase receptors, VEGFR1 and VEGFR2, represent a key signalling pathway mediating physiological angiogenesis and are also major therapeutic targets. VEGFA is a member of the gene family that includes VEGFB, VEGFC, VEGFD and placental growth factor (PLGF). Three decades after its initial isolation and cloning, VEGFA is arguably the most extensively investigated signalling system in angiogenesis. Although many mediators of angiogenesis have been identified, including members of the FGF family, angiopoietins, TGFβ and sphingosine 1-phosphate, all current FDA-approved anti-angiogenic drugs target the VEGF pathway. Anti-VEGF agents are widely used in oncology and, in combination with chemotherapy or immunotherapy, are now the standard of care in multiple malignancies. Anti-VEGF drugs have also revolutionized the treatment of neovascular eye disorders such as age-related macular degeneration and ischaemic retinal disorders. In this Review, we emphasize the molecular, structural and cellular basis of VEGFA action as well as recent findings illustrating unexpected interactions with other pathways and provocative reports on the role of VEGFA in regenerative medicine. We also discuss clinical and translational aspects of VEGFA. Given the crucial role that VEGFA plays in regulating angiogenesis in health and disease, this molecule is largely the focus of this Review.

Abstract
Accelerated biological vascular ageing is still a major driver of the increasing burden of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Exercise training delays this process, known as early vascular ageing, but often lacks effectiveness due to a lack of understanding of molecular and clinical adaptations to specific stimuli. This narrative review summarizes the current knowledge about the molecular and clinical vascular adaptations to acute and chronic exercise. It further addresses how training characteristics (frequency, intensity, volume, and type) may influence these processes. Finally, practical recommendations are given for exercise training to maintain and improve vascular health. Exercise increases shear stress on the vascular wall and stimulates the endothelial release of circulating growth factors and of exerkines from the skeletal muscle and other organs. As a result, remodeling within the vascular walls leads to a better vasodilator and -constrictor responsiveness, reduced arterial stiffness, arterio- and angiogenesis, higher antioxidative capacities, and reduced oxidative stress. Although current evidence about specific aspects of exercise training, such as F-I-T-T, is limited, and exact training recommendations cannot be given, some practical implications can be extracted. As such, repeated stimuli 5-7 days per week might be necessary to use the full potential of these favorable physiological alterations, and the cumulative volume of mechanical shear stress seems more important than peak shear stress. Because of distinct short- and long-term effects of resistance and aerobic exercise, including higher and moderate intensities, both types of exercise should be implemented in a comprehensive training regimen. As vascular adaptability towards exercise remains high at any age in both healthy individuals and patients with cardiovascular diseases, individualized exercise-based vascular health prevention should be implemented in any age group from children to centenarians.

Abstract
The decrease in angiogenesis that occurs with aging significantly contributes to the higher incidence and mortality of cardiovascular diseases among the elderly. This decline in angiogenesis becomes more pronounced with increasing age and is closely linked to abnormal function and senescence of endothelial cells. Enhancing angiogenesis in aging and targeting senescent endothelial cells have gained considerable attention. Nitric oxide (NO) has been thoroughly investigated for its function in regulating angiogenesis and is an important factor that can counteract endothelial cell senescence. This review summarizes the mechanisms of reduced angiogenesis during aging and therapeutic strategies targeting senescent cells. We also discuss the potential of combining the current approaches with NO in promoting angiogenesis in aging vessels.

Abstract
Vascular aging contributes to adverse changes in organ function and is a significant indicator of major cardiac events. Endothelial cells (ECs) participate in aging-provoked coronary vascular pathology. Regular exercise is associated with preservation of arterial function with aging in humans. However, the molecular basis is not well understood. The present study was aimed to determine the effects of exercise on coronary endothelial senescence and whether mitochondrial clearance regulator FUN14 domain containing 1 (FUNDC1)-related mitophagy and mitochondrial homeostasis were involved. In mouse coronary arteries, FUNDC1 levels showed gradually decrease with age. Both FUNDC1 and mitophagy levels in cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) were significantly reduced in aged mice and were rescued by exercise training. Exercise also alleviated CMECs senescence as evidenced by senescence associated β-galactosidase activity and aging markers, prevented endothelial abnormal cell migration, proliferation, and eNOS activation in CMECs from aged mice, and improved endothelium-dependent vasodilation of coronary artery, reduced myocardial neutrophil infiltration and inflammatory cytokines evoked by MI/R, restored angiogenesis and consequently alleviated MI/R injury in aging. Importantly, FUNDC1 deletion abolished the protective roles of exercise and FUNDC1 overexpression in ECs with adeno-associated virus (AAV) reversed endothelial senescence and prevented MI/R injury. Mechanistically, PPARγ played an important role in regulating FUNDC1 expressions in endothelium under exercise-induced laminar shear stress. In conclusion, exercise prevents endothelial senescence in coronary arteries via increasing FUNDC1 in a PPARγ-dependent manner, and subsequently protects aged mice against MI/R injury. These findings highlight FUNDC1-mediated mitophagy as potential therapeutic target that prevents endothelial senescence and myocardial vulnerability.

Abstract
The ageing process is a systemic decline from cellular dysfunction to organ degeneration, with more predisposition to deteriorated disorders. Rejuvenation refers to giving aged cells or organisms more youthful characteristics through various techniques, such as cellular reprogramming and epigenetic regulation. The great leaps in cellular rejuvenation prove that ageing is not a one-way street, and many rejuvenative interventions have emerged to delay and even reverse the ageing process. Defining the mechanism by which roadblocks and signaling inputs influence complex ageing programs is essential for understanding and developing rejuvenative strategies. Here, we discuss the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that counteract cell rejuvenation, and the targeted cells and core mechanisms involved in this process. Then, we critically summarize the latest advances in state-of-art strategies of cellular rejuvenation. Various rejuvenation methods also provide insights for treating specific ageing-related diseases, including cellular reprogramming, the removal of senescence cells (SCs) and suppression of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), metabolic manipulation, stem cells-associated therapy, dietary restriction, immune rejuvenation and heterochronic transplantation, etc. The potential applications of rejuvenation therapy also extend to cancer treatment. Finally, we analyze in detail the therapeutic opportunities and challenges of rejuvenation technology. Deciphering rejuvenation interventions will provide further insights into anti-ageing and ageing-related disease treatment in clinical settings.

Abstract
VEGF inhibitor drugs are part of standard care in oncology and ophthalmology, but not all patients respond to them. Combinations of drugs are likely to be needed for more effective therapies of angiogenesis-related diseases. In this paper we describe naturally occurring combinations of receptors in endothelial cells that might help to understand how cells communicate and to identify targets for drug combinations. We also develop and share a new software tool called DECNEO to identify them. Single-cell gene expression data are used to identify a set of co-expressed endothelial cell receptors, conserved among species (mice and humans) and enriched, within a network, of connections to up-regulated genes. This set includes several receptors previously shown to play a role in angiogenesis. Multiple statistical tests from large datasets, including an independent validation set, support the reproducibility, evolutionary conservation and role in angiogenesis of these naturally occurring combinations of receptors. We also show tissue-specific combinations and, in the case of choroid endothelial cells, consistency with both well-established and recent experimental findings, presented in a separate paper. The results and methods presented here advance the understanding of signaling to endothelial cells. The methods are generally applicable to the decoding of intercellular combinations of signals.
