Impaired mitophagy leads to cigarette smoke stress‐induced cellular senescence: implications for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Open accessAbstract
Cigarette smoke (CS)‐induced cellular senescence is involved in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The molecular mechanism by which CS induces cellular senescence is unknown. Here, we show that CS stress (exposure of primary lung cells to CS extract 0.2‐0.75% with a half‐maximal inhibitory concentration of ~0.5%) led to impaired mitophagy and perinuclear accumulation of damaged mitochondria associated with cellular senescence in both human lung fibroblasts and small airway epithelial cells (SAECs). Impaired mitophagy was attributed to reduced Parkin translocation to damaged mitochondria, which was due to CS‐induced cytoplasmic p53 accumulation and its interaction with Parkin. Impaired Parkin translocation to damaged mitochondria was also observed in mouse lungs with emphysema (6 months CS exposure, 100 mg TPM/m 3 ) as well as in lungs of chronic smokers and patients with COPD. Primary SAECs from patients with COPD also exhibited impaired mitophagy and increased cellular senescence via suborganellar signaling. Mitochondria‐targeted antioxidant (Mito‐Tempo) restored impaired mitophagy, decreased mitochondrial mass accumulation, and delayed cellular senescence in Parkin‐overexpressing cells. In conclusion, defective mitophagy leads to CS stress‐induced lung cellular senescence, and restoring mitophagy delays cellular senescence, which provides a promising therapeutic intervention in chronic airway diseases.—Ahmad, T., Sundar, I.

TL;DR
Cigarette smoke stress impairs mitophagy in lung fibroblasts and small airway epithelial cells, leading to perinuclear accumulation of damaged mitochondria, DNA damage, and cellular senescence. Restoring Parkin-mediated mitophagy together with mitochondria-targeted antioxidant treatment delays senescence, suggesting a therapeutic target in COPD.
Key findings
- CSE exposure (0.2–0.75%; half-maximal inhibitory concentration ∼0.5%) induced cellular senescence in human lung fibroblasts and SAECs, with increased SA-β-gal/C12FDG, p16, p21, γ-H2AX foci, mtROS, mitochondrial mass, and decreased ATP.
- Impaired mitophagy was attributed to reduced Parkin translocation to damaged mitochondria, linked to CS-induced cytoplasmic p53 accumulation and its interaction with Parkin; Pink1 was stabilized on mitochondria, Mfn2 increased, and Drp1 showed more cytoplasmic localization with a slight decrease.
- Impaired Parkin mitochondrial translocation was also seen in mouse lungs with emphysema after 6 months CS exposure (100 mg TPM/m3), in lungs of chronic smokers and patients with COPD, and in primary SAECs from patients with COPD, which showed increased mitochondrial mass and senescence augmented by CSE.
- Parkin overexpression restored mitophagy and reduced mitochondrial mass; in Parkin-overexpressing cells, Mito-Tempo (1 µM) reduced mtROS, perinuclear mitochondrial accumulation, γ-H2AX foci, and delayed cellular senescence. MitoT alone reduced mtROS but did not rescue impaired mitophagy or senescence.
Methods
- In vitro models used human lung fibroblasts (HFL1, WI-38 LC3-GFP), primary mouse lung fibroblasts, and human primary SAECs from nonsmokers and patients with COPD; CSE was used at 0.2–0.75%, with 0.5% for HFL1, 0.25% for mouse lung fibroblasts, and 0.2% for human SAECs, over 10–15 days with alternate-day treatment.
- In vivo/ex vivo samples included 8-week-old C57BL/6J mice exposed to CS 5 h/day, 5 days/week for 6 months at ∼100 mg/m3 total particulate matter, and human lung tissue from normal nonsmokers, smokers, and patients with COPD.
- Assays included SA-β-gal, C12FDG flow cytometry, immunofluorescence/confocal microscopy, electron microscopy, MitoTracker Green/Red, MitoSOX, TMRM, mitochondrial ATP, γ-H2AX foci, CellROX, Western blot, mitochondrial isolation, and 1-way ANOVA with means ± SEM.
Limitations
- Stated: long-term nocodazole treatment caused cell death, so the effect of perinuclear mitochondrial accumulation on cellular senescence could not be directly evaluated; Parkin was transiently overexpressed while CSE treatment continued for 15 days; MitoT alone had no significant effect on senescence, possibly due to insufficient concentration/duration; further studies are needed with stable Parkin overexpression, Parkin knockout mice, in vivo MitoT, other lung cell types, and transmitophagy.
- Evident from the text: much of the mechanistic evidence is in vitro, while human COPD/smoker data are tissue associations rather than causal in vivo experiments; mitophagy is assessed mainly by Parkin translocation and LC3 colocalization rather than direct flux measurements; no in vivo rescue with MitoT or Parkin is reported.

The citation is attached to the description of Mdivi-1 as a mitophagy inhibitor; the sentence presents the senescence finding as the citing authors’ own. Our copy’s Results section discusses mitochondrial degradation during starvation and Drp1-deficient cells, but the searched passages contain no Mdivi-1, rotenone, or cellular-senescence result. It therefore does not verify either the drug description or the quoted senescence claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

The citation to this paper is attached to the parenthetical description of rotenone as increasing mtROS, not to the citing authors’ statement that their experiments found cellular senescence.

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 2026-10-07, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-07 (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.
