Stress, cell senescence and organismal ageing
Open accessAbstract
Cellular senescence was first described by Hayflick and Moorhead in the 1960s as the irreversible arrest of cells following prolonged cultivation. Telomere shortening is the key mechanism driving replicative senescence in human fibroblasts. Later, pioneering work by Olivier Toussaint and others showed that stress plays a major role in the induction of senescence in vitro, a phenomenon known as stress-induced premature senescence or SIPS. It is also now widely accepted that senescence plays a role in vivo. An emerging body of evidence from animal models, and particularly mice, has demonstrated an important role for senescence in several processes such as embryonic development, wound healing, tumour suppression and ageing. However, mostly due to a lack of availability of tissues and specific markers, less is known about the importance of cell senescence in humans. In this review, we summarize some of the key findings in the field of senescence, stress-induced senescence and telomeres. We focus particularly on the role of telomere dysfunction and senescence during the ageing process as well as potential interventions, including pharmacological approaches like telomerase activators and senolytics, to counteract their detrimental effects in ageing and disease.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This review summarizes cellular senescence, stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS), and telomere dysfunction, arguing that senescence may contribute to organismal ageing while human evidence remains limited. It discusses senolytics and SASP-suppressing drugs as potential interventions and highlights unresolved questions about causality and senescent-cell burden in human tissues.
Key findings
- Replicative senescence in human fibroblasts is primarily driven by telomere shortening, and ectopic telomerase expression bypasses the senescence-induced arrest. SIPS can be induced by sublethal stress in 3–10 days with no or modest telomere shortening, but persistent telomeric DNA damage can occur independently of telomere length and telomerase, so some SIPS is telomere-dependent.
- In vivo, telomere shortening occurs in some tissues and shows weak correlations with donor age; comparative data across over 60 mammalian species indicate that smaller, short-lived species tend to have long telomeres and high telomerase, and telomere length is not a limiting factor for lifespan. A human study of over 4000 people over 10 years found no association between telomere length changes and mortality or morbidity.
- Senescent cells can be beneficial (tumour suppression, wound healing, embryonic development, insulin secretion) or detrimental via the SASP. Genetic clearance of senescent cells in mice delays age-related disorders, protects from cancer, and extends median but not maximum lifespan; senolytics such as dasatinib plus quercetin, ABT-263/ABT-737, and a FOXO4 peptide improve healthspan in mouse models.
- A major challenge is the absence of a universal senescence marker; SA-β-gal has false positives, and the exact frequency of senescent cells in older tissues and healthy humans remains unknown.
Methods
- Narrative review; no primary experiments or new data are reported.
- Synthesizes published literature on cellular senescence, telomeres, SIPS, in vivo mouse models, comparative biology, and pharmacological interventions.
- Main analysis is qualitative synthesis; no systematic search strategy, inclusion criteria, or meta-analysis is described.
Limitations
- Stated in paper: lack of human tissues and specific markers limits knowledge of senescence in humans; most in vivo evidence comes from laboratory mice, which have known limitations; the exact frequency of senescent cells in older tissues and healthy humans is unknown; causality of senescence in ageing remains debated; and in vivo rates of occurrence and turnover of senescent cells are poorly understood.
- Evident from text: as a narrative review, it does not systematically assess bias or quantify effect sizes, and many cited findings are from mouse models with uncertain translation to humans.

“In this review, we summarize some of the key findings in the field of senescence, stress-induced senescence and telomeres.We focus particularly on the role of telomere dysfunction and senescence during the ageing process as well as potential interventions, including pharmacological approaches like telomerase activators and senolytics, to counteract their detrimental effects in ageing and disease.”

Conflicting conclusions about telomere length and species longevity
MinorThe paper first says there is no connection between mean telomere length and mammalian species longevity, but later concludes that longevity is strongly associated with the evolution of short telomeres.
“In terms of comparative biology, no connection appears to exist between the mean telomere length of cells and the longevity of mammalian species.”
“Taken together, it seems that the evolution of large body sizes and longevity is strongly associated with the evolution of short telomeres and telomerase suppression, presumably for tumour suppression (de Magalhaes, 2013; Gomes et al., 2011).”

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 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
