- Abstract
Currently, there is a growing focus on aging and age-related diseases. The processes of aging are based on cell senescence, which results in changes in intercellular communications and pathological alterations in tissues. In the present study, we investigate the influence of senescent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on endothelial cells (ECs). In order to induce senescence in MSCs, we employed a method of stress-induced senescence utilizing mitomycin C (MmC). Subsequent experiments involved the interaction of ECs with MSCs in a coculture or the treatment of ECs with the secretome of senescent MSCs. After 48 h, we assessed the EC state. Our findings revealed that direct interaction led to a decrease in EC proliferation and migratory activity of the coculture. Furthermore, there was an increase in the activity of the lysosomal compartment, as well as an upregulation of the genes P21, IL6, IL8, ITGA1, and ITGB1. Treatment of ECs with the "senescent" secretome resulted in less pronounced effects, although a decrease in proliferation and an increase in ICAM-1 expression were observed. The maintenance of high levels of typical "senescent" cytokines and growth factors after 48 h suggests that the addition of the "senescent" secretome may have a prolonged effect on the cells. It is noteworthy that in samples treated with the "senescent" secretome, the level of PDGF-AA was higher, which may explain some of the pro-regenerative effects of senescent cells. Therefore, the detected changes may underlie both the negative and positive effects of senescence. The findings provide insight into the effects of cell senescence in vitro, where many of the organism's regulatory mechanisms are absent.
