p53 enhances DNA repair and suppresses cytoplasmic chromatin fragments and inflammation in senescent cells
5 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Genomic instability and inflammation are distinct hallmarks of aging, but the connection between them is poorly understood. Here we report a mechanism directly linking genomic instability and inflammation in senescent cells through a mitochondria-regulated molecular circuit involving p53 and cytoplasmic chromatin fragments (CCF) that are enriched for DNA damage signaling marker γH2A.X. We show that p53 suppresses...
