JAK inhibition alleviates the cellular senescence-associated secretory phenotype and frailty in old age
Open accessAbstract
Significance: A hallmark of aging is chronic sterile inflammation, which is closely associated with frailty and age-related diseases. We found that senescent fat progenitor cells accumulate in adipose tissue with aging and acquire a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), with increased production of proinflammatory cytokines compared with nonsenescent cells. These cells provoked inflammation in adipose tissue and induced macrophage migration. The JAK pathway is activated in adipose tissue with aging, and the SASP can be suppressed by inhibiting the JAK pathway in senescent cells. JAK1/2 inhibitors reduced inflammation and alleviated frailty in aged mice. One possible mechanism contributing to reduced frailty is SASP inhibition. Our study points to the JAK pathway as a potential target for countering age-related dysfunction.

Senescent cells can directly cause insulin resistance by releasing SASP factors such as IL-6 and TNF-α.
“Sncs can directly cause insulin resistance through release of SASP factors such as IL-6 and TNF-α (39, 40).”
From Senolytic Drugs: Reducing Senescent Cell Viability to Extend Health Span (2021) · cites this paper as [39]
The “Senescent Preadipocytes Develop a SASP” section reports increased secretion of IL-6 and increased TNF-α mRNA in senescent preadipocytes. The “Senescent Preadipocytes Induce Inflammation in Adjacent Cells” section shows that their conditioned medium induces inflammation, but the paper does not establish that these factors directly cause insulin resistance or demonstrate TNF-α secretion.

The sections “Senescent Preadipocytes Develop a SASP” and “Inhibition of JAK Suppresses the SASP in Senescent Preadipocytes” identify IL-6, CXCL-1, and G-CSF as SASP-associated factors. The citation is attached to the description of the factors, not the citing authors’ finding in 3xTg-AD mice. Our copy does not identify IL-12, IL-10, or CXCL2 as SASP factors, so it supports only part of the cited list (page numbers unavailable). (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn aged mice, pharmacologic JAK inhibition suppresses adipose tissue and systemic inflammation markers and improves muscle strength, endurance, and coordination.
“This concept is supported by a study of aged mice demonstrating that pharmacologic inhibition of the JAK pathway, which regulates the SASP in senescent preadipocytes and endothelial cells in vitro, suppresses markers of both adipose tissue and systemic inflammation and improved parameters of muscle strength, endurance, and coordination (39).”

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.
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.
