Mitochondrial Dysfunction Induces Senescence with a Distinct Secretory Phenotype

Open access

Abstract

Cellular senescence permanently arrests cell proliferation, often accompanied by a multi-faceted senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Loss of mitochondrial function can drive age-related declines in the function of many post-mitotic tissues, but little is known about how mitochondrial dysfunction affects mitotic tissues. We show here that several manipulations that compromise mitochondrial function in proliferating human cells induce a senescence growth arrest with a modified SASP that lacks the IL-1-dependent inflammatory arm. Cells that underwent mitochondrial dysfunction-associated senescence (MiDAS) had lower NAD+/NADH ratios, which caused both the growth arrest and prevented the IL-1-associated SASP through AMPK-mediated p53 activation. Progeroid mice that rapidly accrue mtDNA mutations accumulated senescent cells with a MiDAS SASP in vivo, which suppressed adipogenesis and stimulated keratinocyte differentiation in cell culture. Our data identify a distinct senescence response and provide a mechanism by which mitochondrial dysfunction can drive aging phenotypes.

  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Cells that become senescent and build up over time are a cause or contributor to age-related phenotypes and disease.

    “there is mounting evidence that senescent cells can accumulate with age and cause or contribute to aging phenotypes and pathologies.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    The effects of the MiDAS SASP on adipocyte and keratinocyte differentiation measured in culture are relevant to aging phenotypes in vivo.

    “which suppressed adipogenesis and stimulated keratinocyte differentiation in cell culture.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    It is not clear how mitochondrial dysfunction drives aging, particularly in mitotic tissues.

    “Mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to aging (Khrapko and Vijg, 2009), but it is not clear how it drives aging, particularly in mitotic tissues.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
