Abstract

Cellular senescence influences cancer progression through irreversible cell‐cycle arrest, immune surveillance, and paracrine signaling mediated by the senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP comprises inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and matrix‐remodeling enzymes that regulate the tumor microenvironment (TME).

The Role of Cellular Senescence in Chronic Lung Diseases: Emerging Mechanisms and Translational Perspectives: A Narrative Review

Cellular senescence is one of the major risk factors for the onset and progression of chronic pulmonary diseases. Cellular senescence can be induced by diverse stressors, including genotoxic damage, oncogenic signaling, and therapeutic interventions. These senescent cells communicate via the release of multiple inflamm...

Integrated Transcriptomic Analysis and Machine Learning Identify THY1 as a Key Regulator of Cancer‐Associated Fibroblast Infiltration, Promoting Malignant Progression and Immune Escape in Gastric Cancer

Heterogeneity in cancer‐associated fibroblast (CAF) infiltration within the tumor microenvironment is closely associated with gastric cancer progression and immune evasion; however, precise CAF‐related diagnostic markers and actionable therapeutic targets remain scarce.
