Project description:Elevated mitochondrial biogenesis and metabolism represent key features of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs), whose propagation is conducive to disease onset and progression. Therefore, interfering with mitochondria biology and function may be regarded as a useful approach to eradicate CSCs. Here, we used the breast cancer cell line MCF7 as a model system to interrogate how mitochondrial fission contributes to the development of mitochondrial dysfunction toward the inhibition of metabolic flux and stemness. We generated an isogenic MCF-7 cell line transduced with Mitochondrial Fission Factor (MCF7-MFF), which is primarily involved in mitochondrial fission. We evaluated the biochemical, molecular and functional properties of MCF7-MFF cells, as compared to control MCF7 cells transduced with the empty vector (MCF7-Control). We observed that MFF over-expression reduces both mitochondrial mass and activity, as evaluated using the mitochondrial probes MitroTracker Red and MitoTracker Orange, respectively. The analysis of metabolic flux using the Seahorse XFe96 revealed the inhibition of OXPHOS and glycolysis in MCF7-MFF cells, suggesting that increased mitochondrial fission may impair the biochemical properties of these organelles. Notably, CSCs activity, assessed by 3D-tumorsphere assays, was reduced in MCF7-MFF cells. A similar trend was observed for the activity of ALDH, a well-established marker of stemness. We conclude that enhanced mitochondrial fission may compromise CSCs propagation, through the impairment of mitochondrial function, possibly leading to a quiescent cell phenotype. Unbiased proteomic analysis revealed that proteins involved in mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress-response, fatty acid metabolism and hypoxia signaling are among the most highly up-regulated in MCF7-MFF cells. Of note, integrated analysis of top regulatory networks obtained from unbiased proteomics in MCF7-MFF cells predicts that this cell phenotype activates signaling systems and effectors involved in the inhibition of cell survival and adhesion, together with the activation of specific breast cancer cell death programs. Overall, our study shows that unbalanced and abnormal activation of mitochondrial fission may drive the impairment of mitochondrial metabolic function, leading to inhibition of CSC propagation, and the activation of quiescence programs. Exploiting the potential of mitochondria to control pivotal events in tumor biology may, therefore, represent a useful tool to prevent disease progression.

Project description:Targeting senescent cells for therapeutic purposes is gaining momentum across various organ systems. However, concerns about potential off-target effects have been raised. Previous studies have shown that removing senescent cells expressing high levels of p16 (p16high) can hinder processes like wound healing. Here, we identify a distinct senescent cell population during dermal wound healing characterized by high expression level of p21 (p21high) using the p21-Cre mouse model. Using a standard cutaneous injury model, we find that eliminating p21high cells can expedite wound closure, in contrast to the effects of removing p16high cells. Through Xenium, a single cell spatial imaging platform, we show that p21high cells are distinct from p16high cells, with p21high cells mainly comprising fibroblasts, immune cells, keratinocytes, and endothelial cells with a pro-inflammatory profile. Moreover, inhibition of NF-kB signaling specifically from p21high cells partially contributes to the accelerated wound healing rates. These findings highlight the heterogeneity of senescent cells during wound healing responses within the skin and likely in other conditions.

Project description:Cellular senescence drives chronic sterile inflammation during aging via the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP); however, the cell types responsible for this pathology remain poorly defined. Here, we identify p21⁺Trem2⁺ senescent macrophages as a major source of inflammaging. Using primary mouse and human macrophages, we developed a model of DNA damage and cholesterol-induced senescence and applied multi-omic profiling to fully characterize senescent macrophages. We found that senescent macrophages exhibit a distinctive p21-TREM2 expression profile and SASP, driven in part by type-I interferon signaling via secreted mitochondrial DNA. We also found that senescent macrophage accumulation occurs in aged and MASLD mouse livers and is enriched in human cirrhotic liver tissue. Finally, senolytic treatment targeting senescent macrophages reduced liver inflammation and steatosis in both aged and MASLD mice. Together, these findings establish macrophage senescence as a central driver of chronic inflammation in aging and metabolic liver disease, highlighting a promising, tractable therapeutic target.
