Advanced Maternal Age‐associated SIRT1 Deficiency Compromises Trophoblast Epithelial−Mesenchymal Transition through an Increase in Vimentin Acetylation

Advanced maternal age (AMA) pregnancies are rapidly increasing and are associated with aberrant trophoblast cell function, poor placentation, and unfavorable pregnancy outcomes, presumably due to premature placental senescence. SIRT1 is an NAD⁺‐dependent deacetylase with well‐known antiaging effects, but its connection with placental senescence is unreported. In this study, human term placentas and first‐trimester villi were collected from AMA and normal pregnancies, and a mouse AMA model was established by cross breeding young and aged male and female C57 mice. SIRT1 expression and activity in HTR8/SVneo cells were genetically or pharmacologically manipulated. Trophoblast‐specific Sirt1‐knockout (KO) mouse placentas were generated by mating Elf5‐Cre and Sirt1 ^fl/fl mice. Trophoblast cell mobility was assessed with transwell invasion and wound‐healing assays. SIRT1‐binding proteins in HTR8/SVneo cells and human placental tissue were identified by mass spectrometry. We identified SIRT1 as the only differentially expressed sirtuin between AMA and normal placentas. It is downregulated in AMA placentas early in the placental life cycle and is barely impacted by paternal age. SIRT1 loss upregulates P53 acetylation and P21 expression and impairs trophoblast invasion and migration. Sirt1‐KO mouse placentas exhibit senescence markers and morphological disruption, along with decreased fetal weight. In trophoblasts, SIRT1 interacts with vimentin, regulating its acetylation. In conclusion, SIRT1 promotes trophoblast epithelial−mesenchymal transition (EMT) to enhance invasiveness by modulating vimentin acetylation. AMA placentas are associated with premature senescence during placentation due to SIRT1 loss. Therefore, SIRT1 may be an antiaging therapeutic target for improving placental development and perinatal outcomes in AMA pregnancies.     

Senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase reveals the abundance of senescent CD8+ T cells in aging humans

Aging leads to a progressive functional decline of the immune system, rendering the elderly increasingly susceptible to disease and infection. The degree to which immune cell senescence contributes to this decline remains unclear, however, since markers that label immune cells with classical features of cellular senescence accurately and comprehensively have not been identified. Using a second‐generation fluorogenic substrate for β‐galactosidase and multi‐parameter flow cytometry, we demonstrate here that peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from healthy humans increasingly display cells with high senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase (SA‐βGal) activity with advancing donor age. The greatest age‐associated increases were observed in CD8+ T‐cell populations, in which the fraction of cells with high SA‐βGal activity reached average levels of 64% in donors in their 60s. CD8+ T cells with high SA‐βGal activity, but not those with low SA‐βGal activity, were found to exhibit features of telomere dysfunction‐induced senescence and p16‐mediated senescence, were impaired in their ability to proliferate, developed in various T‐cell differentiation states, and had a gene expression signature consistent with the senescence state previously observed in human fibroblasts. Based on these results, we propose that senescent CD8+ T cells with classical features of cellular senescence accumulate to levels that are significantly higher than previously reported and additionally provide a simple yet robust method for the isolation and characterization of senescent CD8+ T cells with predictive potential for biological age.     

p38α‐MAPK‐deficient myeloid cells ameliorate symptoms and pathology of APP‐transgenic Alzheimer's disease mice

Alzheimer''s disease (AD), the most common cause of dementia in the elderly, is pathologically characterized by extracellular deposition of amyloid‐β peptides (Aβ) and microglia‐dominated inflammatory activation in the brain. p38α‐MAPK is activated in both neurons and microglia. How p38α‐MAPK in microglia contributes to AD pathogenesis remains unclear. In this study, we conditionally knocked out p38α‐MAPK in all myeloid cells or specifically in microglia of APP‐transgenic mice, and examined animals for AD‐associated pathologies (i.e., cognitive deficits, Aβ pathology, and neuroinflammation) and individual microglia for their inflammatory activation and Aβ internalization at different disease stages (e.g., at 4 and 9 months of age). Our experiments showed that p38α‐MAPK‐deficient myeloid cells were more effective than p38α‐MAPK‐deficient microglia in reducing cerebral Aβ and neuronal impairment in APP‐transgenic mice. Deficiency of p38α‐MAPK in myeloid cells inhibited inflammatory activation of individual microglia at 4 months but enhanced it at 9 months. Inflammatory activation promoted microglial internalization of Aβ. Interestingly, p38α‐MAPK‐deficient myeloid cells reduced IL‐17a‐expressing CD4‐positive lymphocytes in 9 but not 4‐month‐old APP‐transgenic mice. By cross‐breeding APP‐transgenic mice with Il‐17a‐knockout mice, we observed that IL‐17a deficiency potentially activated microglia and reduced Aβ deposition in the brain as shown in 9‐month‐old myeloid p38α‐MAPK‐deficient AD mice. Thus, p38α‐MAPK deficiency in all myeloid cells, but not only in microglia, prevents AD progression. IL‐17a‐expressing lymphocytes may partially mediate the pathogenic role of p38α‐MAPK in peripheral myeloid cells. Our study supports p38α‐MAPK as a therapeutic target for AD patients.     

Naa10p and IKKα interaction regulates EMT in oral squamous cell carcinoma via TGF‐β1/Smad pathway

Epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been contributed to increase migration and invasion of cancer cells. However, the correlate of Naa10p and IKKα with EMT in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is not yet fully understood. In our present study, we found N‐α‐acetyltransferase 10 protein (Naa10p) and IκB kinase α (IKKα) were abnormally abundant in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Bioinformatic results indicate that the expression of Naa10p and IKKα is correlated with TGF‐β1/Smad and EMT‐related molecules. The Transwell migration, invasion, qRT‐PCR and Western blot assay indicated that Naa10p repressed OSCC cell migration, invasion and EMT, whereas IKKα promoted TGF‐β1–mediated OSCC cell migration, invasion and EMT. Mechanistically, Naa10p inhibited IKKα activation of Smad3 through the interaction with IKKα directly in OSCC cells after TGF‐β1 stimulation. Notably, knockdown of Naa10p reversed the IKKα‐induced change in the migration, invasion and EMT‐related molecules in OSCC cells after TGF‐β1 stimulation. These findings suggest that Naa10p interacted with IKKα mediates EMT in OSCC cells through TGF‐β1/Smad, a novel pathway for preventing OSCC.     

TNF‐α/IFN‐γ synergy amplifies senescence‐associated inflammation and SARS‐CoV‐2 receptor expression via hyper‐activated JAK/STAT1

Older age and underlying conditions such as diabetes/obesity or immunosuppression are leading host risk factors for developing severe complications from COVID‐19 infection. The pathogenesis of COVID‐19‐related cytokine storm, tissue damage, and fibrosis may be interconnected with fundamental aging processes, including dysregulated immune responses and cellular senescence. Here, we examined effects of key cytokines linked to cellular senescence on expression of SARS‐CoV‐2 viral entry receptors. We found exposure of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to the inflammatory cytokines, TNF‐α + IFN‐γ or a cocktail of TNF‐α + IFN‐γ + IL‐6, increased expression of ACE2/DPP4, accentuated the pro‐inflammatory senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and decreased cellular proliferative capacity, consistent with progression towards a cellular senescence‐like state. IL‐6 by itself failed to induce substantial effects on viral entry receptors or SASP‐related genes, while synergy between TNF‐α and IFN‐γ initiated a positive feedback loop via hyper‐activation of the JAK/STAT1 pathway, causing SASP amplification. Breaking the interactive loop between senescence and cytokine secretion with JAK inhibitor ruxolitinib or antiviral drug remdesivir prevented hyper‐inflammation, normalized SARS‐CoV‐2 entry receptor expression, and restored HUVECs proliferative capacity. This loop appears to underlie cytokine‐mediated viral entry receptor activation and links with senescence and hyper‐inflammation.     

UBE2C triggers HIF‐1α‐glycolytic flux in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the most common malignancy in Taiwan. Therefore, refining the diagnostic sensitivity of biomarkers for early‐stage tumours and identifying therapeutic targets are critical for improving the survival rate of HNSCC patients. Metabolic reprogramming contributes to cancer development and progression. Metabolic pathways, specifically, play a crucial role in these diverse biological and pathological processes, which include cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and carcinogenesis. Here, we investigated the role and potential prognostic value of the ubiquitin‐conjugating enzyme E2 (UBE2) family in HNSCC. Gene expression database analysis followed by tumour comparison with non‐tumour tissue showed that UBE2C was upregulated in tumours and was associated with lymph node metastasis in HNSCC patients. Knockdown of UBE2C significantly reduced the invasion/migration abilities of SAS and CAL27 cells. UBE2C modulates glycolysis pathway activation and HIF‐1α expression in SAS and CAL27 cells. CoCl₂ (HIF‐1α inducer) treatment restored the expression of glycolytic enzymes and the migration/invasion abilities of UBE2C knockdown cells. Based on our findings, UBE2C expression mediates HIF‐1α activation, increasing glycolysis pathway activation and the invasion/migration abilities of cancer cells. UBE2C may be an independent prognostic factor and a therapeutic target in HNSCC.     

Ganoderic acid D prevents oxidative stress‐induced senescence by targeting 14‐3‐3ε to activate CaM/CaMKII/NRF2 signaling pathway in mesenchymal stem cells

Stem cell senescence is an important cause of aging. Delaying senescence may present a novel way to combat aging and age‐associated diseases. This study provided a mechanistic insight into the protective effect of ganoderic acid D (GA‐D) against human amniotic mesenchymal stem cell (hAMSCs) senescence. GA‐D, a Ganoderma lucidum‐derived triterpenoid, markedly prevented hAMSCs senescence via activating the Ca²⁺ calmodulin (CaM)/CaM‐dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII)/nuclear erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2) axis, and 14‐3‐3ε was identified as a target of GA‐D. 14‐3‐3ε‐encoding gene (YWHAE) knockdown in hAMSCs reversed the activation of the CaM/CaMKII/Nrf2 signals to attenuate the GA‐D anti‐aging effect and increase senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase (SA‐β‐gal), p16 and p21 expression levels, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, thereby promoting cell cycle arrest and decreasing differentiation potential. YWHAE overexpression maintained or slightly enhanced the GA‐D anti‐aging effect. GA‐D prevented d‐galactose‐caused aging in mice by significantly increasing the total antioxidant capacity, as well as superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity, and reducing the formation of malondialdehyde, advanced glycation end products, and receptor of advanced glycation end products. Consistent with the protective mechanism of GA‐D against hAMSCs senescence, GA‐D delayed the senescence of bone‐marrow mesenchymal stem cells in this aging model in vivo, reduced SA‐β‐gal and ROS production, alleviated cell cycle arrest, and enhanced cell viability and differentiation via regulating 14‐3‐3ε and CaM/CaMKII/Nrf2 axis. Therefore, GA‐D retards hAMSCs senescence by targeting 14‐3‐3ε to activate the CaM/CaMKII/Nrf2 signaling pathway. Furthermore, the in vivo GA‐D anti‐aging effect may involve the regulation of stem cell senescence via the same signal axis.     

Knockdown of circular RNA VANGL1 inhibits TGF‐β‐induced epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in melanoma cells by sponging miR‐150‐5p

Melanoma is one of the most aggressive and life‐threatening skin cancers, and in this research, we aimed to explore the functional role of circular RNA VANGL1 (circVANGL1) in melanoma progression. The expression levels of circVANGL1 were observed to be significantly increased in clinical melanoma tissues and cell lines. Moreover, circVANGL1 knockdown suppressed, while circVANGL1 overexpression promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion abilities of melanoma cells. Further investigations confirmed the direct binding relation between circVANGL1 and miR‐150‐5p in melanoma, and restoration of miR‐150‐5p blocked the effects of circVANGL1 overexpression in melanoma cells. We further found that circVANGL1 was up‐regulated by TGF‐β treatment, and the enhanced EMT of TGF‐β‐treated melanoma cells was blocked by circVANGL1 knockdown. In conclusion, these results indicated that circVANGL1 might serve as a promising therapeutic target for melanoma.     

MicroRNA‐181a restricts human γδ T cell differentiation by targeting Map3k2 and Notch2

γδ T cells are a conserved population of lymphocytes that contributes to anti‐tumor responses through its overt type 1 inflammatory and cytotoxic properties. We have previously shown that human γδ T cells acquire this profile upon stimulation with IL‐2 or IL‐15, in a differentiation process dependent on MAPK/ERK signaling. Here, we identify microRNA‐181a as a key modulator of human γδ T cell differentiation. We observe that miR‐181a is highly expressed in patients with prostate cancer and that this pattern associates with lower expression of NKG2D, a critical mediator of cancer surveillance. Interestingly, miR‐181a expression negatively correlates with an activated type 1 effector profile obtained from in vitro differentiated γδ T cells and miR‐181a overexpression restricts their levels of NKG2D and TNF‐α. Upon in silico analysis, we identify two miR‐181a candidate targets, Map3k2 and Notch2, which we validate via overexpression coupled with luciferase assays. These results reveal a novel role for miR‐181a as critical regulator of human γδ T cell differentiation and highlight its potential for manipulation of γδ T cells in next‐generation immunotherapies.     

Cask methylation involved in the injury of insulin secretion function caused by interleukin1‐β

Islet inflammation severely impairs pancreatic β‐cell function, but the specific mechanisms are still unclear. Interleukin1‐β (IL‐1β), an essential inflammatory factor, exerts a vital role in multiple physio‐pathologic processes, including diabetes. Calcium/calmodulin‐dependent serine protein kinase (CASK) is an important regulator especially in insulin secretion process. This study aims to unveil the function of CASK in IL‐1β–induced insulin secretion dysfunction and the possible mechanism thereof. Islets of Sprague‐Dawley (SD) rats and INS‐1 cells stimulated with IL‐1β were utilized as models of chronic inflammation. Insulin secretion function associated with Cask and DNA methyltransferases (DNMT) expression were assessed. The possible mechanisms of IL‐1β‐induced pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction were also explored. In this study, CASK overexpression effectively improved IL‐1β‐induced islet β‐cells dysfunction, increased insulin secretion. DNA methyltransferases and the level of methylation in the promoter region of Cask were elevated after IL‐1β administration. Methyltransferase inhibitor 5‐Aza‐2’‐deoxycytidine (5‐Aza‐dC) and si‐DNMTs partially up‐regulated CASK expression and reversed potassium stimulated insulin secretion (KSIS) and glucose‐stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) function under IL‐1β treatment in INS‐1 and rat islets. These results reveal a previously unknown effect of IL‐1β on insulin secretion dysfunction and demonstrate a novel pathway for Cask silencing based on activation of DNA methyltransferases via inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and modification of gene promoter methylation.     

Olive phenols preserve lamin B1 expression reducing cGAS/STING/NFκB‐mediated SASP in ionizing radiation‐induced senescence

Senescence occurs upon critical telomere shortening, or following DNA damage, oncogenic activation, hypoxia and oxidative stress, overall referred to stress‐induced premature senescence (SIPS). In response to DNA damage, senescent cells release cytoplasmic chromatin fragments (CCFs), and express an altered secretome, the senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which contributes to generate a pro‐inflammatory and pro‐tumoral extracellular milieu. Polyphenols have gained significant attention owing to their anti‐inflammatory and anti‐tumour activities. Here, we studied the effect of oleuropein aglycone (OLE) and hydroxytyrosol (HT) on DNA damage, CCF appearance and SASP in a model of irradiation‐induced senescence. Neonatal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs) were γ‐irradiated and incubated with OLE, 5 µM and HT, 1 µM. Cell growth and senescence‐associated (SA)‐β‐Gal‐staining were used as senescence markers. DNA damage was evaluated by Comet assay, lamin B1 expression, release of CCFs, cyclic GMP‐AMP Synthase (cGAS) activation. IL‐6, IL‐8, MCP‐1 and RANTES were measured by ELISA assay. Our results showed that OLE and HT exerted a protective effect on 8 Gy irradiation‐induced senescence, preserving lamin B1 expression and reducing cGAS/STING/NFκB‐mediated SASP. The ability of OLE and HT to mitigate DNA damage, senescence status and the related SASP in normal cells can be exploited to improve the efficacy and safety of cancer radiotherapy.     

Simvastatin inhibits stem cell proliferation in human leiomyoma via TGF‐β3 and Wnt/β‐Catenin pathways

Uterine leiomyoma (UL) is the most common gynaecologic tumour, affecting an estimated 70 to 80% of women. Leiomyomas develop from the transformation of myometrial stem cells into leiomyoma stem (or tumour‐initiating) cells. These cells undergo self‐renewal and differentiation to mature cells, both are necessary for the maintenance of tumour stem cell niche and tumour growth, respectively. Wnt/β‐catenin and TGF‐β/SMAD pathways, both overactive in UL, promote stem cell self‐renewal, crosstalk between stem and mature cells, cellular proliferation, extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation and drive overall UL growth. Recent evidence suggests that simvastatin, an antihyperlipidemic drug, may have anti‐leiomyoma properties. Herein, we investigated the effects of simvastatin on UL stem cells. We isolated leiomyoma stem cells by flow cytometry using DyeCycle Violet staining and Stro‐1/CD44 surface markers. We found that simvastatin inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in UL stem cells. In addition, it also suppressed the expression of the stemness markers Nanog, Oct4 and Sox2. Simvastatin significantly decreased the production of the key ECM proteins, collagen 1 and fibronectin. Finally, it inhibited genes and/or proteins expression of TGF‐β1, 2 and 3, SMAD2, SMAD4, Wnt4, β‐Catenin, LRP6, AXIN2 and Cyclin D1 in UL stem cells, all are key drivers of the TGF‐β3/SMAD2 and Wnt4/β‐Catenin pathways. Thus, we have identified a novel stem cell‐targeting anti‐leiomyoma simvastatin effect. Further studies are needed to replicate these findings in vivo.     

NR4A1 counteracts JNK activation incurred by ER stress or ROS in pancreatic β‐cells for protection

Sustained hyperglycaemia and hyperlipidaemia incur endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduction in pancreatic β‐cells. ER stress or ROS causes c‐Jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK) activation, and the activated JNK triggers apoptosis in different cells. Nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1 (NR4A1) is an inducible multi‐stress response factor. The aim of this study was to explore the role of NR4A1 in counteracting JNK activation induced by ER stress or ROS and the related mechanism. qPCR, Western blotting, dual‐luciferase reporter and ChIP assays were applied to detect gene expression or regulation by NR4A1. Immunofluorescence was used to detect a specific protein expression in β‐cells. Our data showed that NR4A1 reduced the phosphorylated JNK (p‐JNK) in MIN6 cells encountering ER stress or ROS and reduced MKK4 protein in a proteasome‐dependent manner. We found that NR4A1 increased the expression of cbl‐b (an E3 ligase); knocking down cbl‐b expression increased MKK4 and p‐JNK levels under ER stress or ROS conditions. We elucidated that NR4A1 enhanced the transactivation of cbl‐b promoter by physical association. We further confirmed that cbl‐b expression in β‐cells was reduced in NR4A1‐knockout mice compared with WT mice. NR4A1 down‐regulates JNK activation by ER stress or ROS in β‐cells via enhancing cbl‐b expression.     

Novel small molecule inhibition of IKK/NF‐κB activation reduces markers of senescence and improves healthspan in mouse models of aging

Constitutive NF‐κB activation is associated with cellular senescence and stem cell dysfunction and rare variants in NF‐κB family members are enriched in centenarians. We recently identified a novel small molecule (SR12343) that inhibits IKK/NF‐κB activation by disrupting the association between IKKβ and NEMO. Here we investigated the therapeutic effects of SR12343 on senescence and aging in three different mouse models. SR12343 reduced senescence‐associated beta‐galactosidase (SA‐β‐gal) activity in oxidative stress‐induced senescent mouse embryonic fibroblasts as well as in etoposide‐induced senescent human IMR90 cells. Chronic administration of SR12343 to the Ercc1 ^{−/ ∆} and Zmpste24 ^−/− mouse models of accelerated aging reduced markers of cellular senescence and SASP and improved multiple parameters of aging. SR12343 also reduced markers of senescence and increased muscle fiber size in 2‐year‐old WT mice. Taken together, these results demonstrate that IKK/NF‐κB signaling pathway represents a promising target for reducing markers of cellular senescence, extending healthspan and treating age‐related diseases.     

Zinc finger protein 91 accelerates tumour progression by activating β‐catenin signalling in pancreatic cancer

ObjectivesZFP91, an E3 ligase, has been reported to possess cancer‐promoting functions. This study aimed to elucidate the exact role of ZFP91 in tumour progression of pancreatic cancer and underlying mechanisms.Materials and MethodsWe analysed the correlation between ZFP91 expression and pancreatic cancer through TCGA and GEO data sets. Growth curve, colony formation, wound healing and transwell invasion assays were conducted to evaluate proliferation, migration and invasion of lentivirus transfected pancreatic cancer cells. GSEA and Western blot analysis were performed to validate the regulatory effect of ZFP91 on β‐catenin. Drug response curve and orthotopic implantation model reflected the sensitivity of chemotherapies.ResultsZFP91 overexpression is prevalent in pancreatic cancer and negatively correlated with overall survival. ZFP91 knock‐down attenuated proliferation, migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells. β‐catenin was a downstream gene of ZFP91, and its agonist could reverse the phenotype. ZFP91 promoted EMT and chemoresistance in pancreatic cancer.ConclusionsWe demonstrated that ZFP91 promoted pancreatic cancer proliferation, migration and invasion through activating β‐catenin signalling. EMT and chemoresistance were also regulated by ZFP91. ZFP91 might be a potential therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer.     

ASIC1a stimulates the resistance of human hepatocellular carcinoma by promoting EMT via the AKT/GSK3β/Snail pathway driven by TGFβ/Smad signals

Multidrug resistance is the main obstacle to curing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Acid‐sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a) has critical roles in all stages of cancer progression, especially invasion and metastasis, and in resistance to therapy. Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) transforms epithelial cells into mesenchymal cells after being stimulated by extracellular factors and is closely related to tumour infiltration and resistance. We used Western blotting, immunofluorescence, qRT‐PCR, immunohistochemical staining, MTT, colony formation and scratch healing assay to determine ASIC1a levels and its relationship to cell proliferation, migration and invasion. ASIC1a is overexpressed in HCC tissues, and the amount increased in resistant HCC cells. EMT occurred more frequently in drug‐resistant cells than in parental cells. Inactivation of ASIC1a inhibited cell migration and invasion and increased the chemosensitivity of cells through EMT. Overexpression of ASIC1a upregulated EMT and increased the cells’ proliferation, migration and invasion and induced drug resistance; knocking down ASIC1a with shRNA had the opposite effects. ASIC1a increased cell migration and invasion through EMT by regulating α and β‐catenin, vimentin and fibronectin expression via the AKT/GSK‐3β/Snail pathway driven by TGFβ/Smad signals. ASIC1a mediates drug resistance of HCC through EMT via the AKT/GSK‐3β/Snail pathway.     

AAV‐mediated expression of secreted and transmembrane αKlotho isoforms rescues relevant aging hallmarks in senescent SAMP8 mice

Senescence represents a stage in life associated with elevated incidence of morbidity and increased risk of mortality due to the accumulation of molecular alterations and tissue dysfunction, promoting a decrease in the organism''s protective systems. Thus, aging presents molecular and biological hallmarks, which include chronic inflammation, epigenetic alterations, neuronal dysfunction, and worsening of physical status. In this context, we explored the AAV9‐mediated expression of the two main isoforms of the aging‐protective factor Klotho (KL) as a strategy to prevent these general age‐related features using the senescence‐accelerated mouse prone 8 (SAMP8) model. Both secreted and transmembrane KL isoforms improved cognitive performance, physical state parameters, and different molecular variables associated with aging. Epigenetic landscape was recovered for the analyzed global markers DNA methylation (5‐mC), hydroxymethylation (5‐hmC), and restoration occurred in the acetylation levels of H3 and H4. Gene expression of pro‐ and anti‐inflammatory mediators in central nervous system such as TNF‐α and IL‐10, respectively, had improved levels, which were comparable to the senescence‐accelerated‐mouse resistant 1 (SAMR1) healthy control. Additionally, this improvement in neuroinflammation was supported by changes in the histological markers Iba1, GFAP, and SA β‐gal. Furthermore, bone tissue structural variables, especially altered during senescence, recovered in SAMP8 mice to SAMR1 control values after treatment with both KL isoforms. This work presents evidence of the beneficial pleiotropic role of Klotho as an anti‐aging therapy as well as new specific functions of the KL isoforms for the epigenetic regulation and aged bone structure alteration in an aging mouse model.
