Additionally, ratios of non-senescent Ctrl-LFs and senescence-induced Ctrl-LFs (100:0, 0:100, 50:50, 90:10, 99:1) were co-cultured and their effect on induction of senescence measured. We demonstrated that exposure of naïve non-senescent Ctrl-LFs to CM from senescence-induced Ctrl-LFs and AECs and IPF-LFs increased the markers of senescence including nuclear localisation of phosphorylated-H2A histone family member X (H2AXγ) and expression of p21, IL-6 and IL-8 in Ctrl-LFs. Additionally, co-cultures of non-senescent and senescence-induced Ctrl-LFs induced a senescent-like phenotype in the non-senescent cells. These data suggest that the phenomenon of “senescence-induced senescence” can occur in vitro in primary cultures of human LFs, and provides a possible explanation for the abnormal abundance of senescent cells in the lungs of IPF patients]]> Thu 27 Oct 2022 12:28:40 AEDT ]]> Fibulin-1 predicts disease progression in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19841 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:57:07 AEDT ]]> Fibroblast senescence in the pathology of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35652 Mon 20 Nov 2023 11:12:20 AEDT ]]> STAT3 regulates the onset of oxidant-induced senescence in lung fibroblasts https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42174 2) production in senescent fibroblasts. Targeting STAT3 activity using the small-molecule inhibitor STA-21 attenuated IL-6 production, reduced p21 levels, decreased senescence-associated β-galactosidase accumulation, and restored normal mitochondrial function. The results of this study illustrate that stress-induced senescence in lung fibroblasts involves the activation of STAT3, which can be pharmacologically modulated.]]> Fri 26 Aug 2022 08:10:19 AEST ]]>
