GZMK Drives Aging-Associated Fibrosis through Complement C3a/C3aR-Dependent Cellular Senescence
2025-11-13
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Aging-related multi-organ fibrosis represents a major clinical challenge, largely due to poorly defined extracellular triggers of cellular senescence and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Granzyme K (GZMK), an immune cell–derived serine protease, is hypothesized to regulate this process through a previously unreported immunoproteolytic cascade. Given the e...
