P63 affects distinct metabolic pathways during keratinocyte senescence, evaluated by metabolomic profile and gene expression analysis.

ABSTRACT: Unraveling the molecular nature of skin aging and keratinocyte senescence represents a challenging research project in epithelial biology. In this regard, depletion of p63, a p53 family transcription factor prominently expressed in human and mouse epidermis, accelerates both aging and the onset of senescence markers in vivo animal models as well as in ex vivo keratinocytes. Nonetheless, the biochemical link between p63 action and senescence phenotype remains largely unexplored. In the present study, through ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy (UPLC-MS/MS) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) metabolomic analysis, we uncover interesting pathways linking replicative senescence to metabolic alterations during p63 silencing in human keratinocytes.
