Mechanism: Mechanical stress disrupts the cell's cytoskeleton and activates mechanosensor complexes, leading to p38 MAPK activation and subsequent nuclear changes. Readout: Readout: Senescence gene p16 is upregulated, SASP factors like IL-6 and IL-1β are secreted, and cell viability decreases by 30%.
How does mechanical stress transduce into senescence signaling? This question probes the mechanisms underlying age-related decline. Understanding this could reveal new intervention points.
