Spatial mapping and senolytic targeting of senescent and disease-associated microglia in aged mouse brain white matter

Carver and colleagues profile the aged mouse brain using spatial transcriptomic and imaging analysis and identify a senescence- and disease-associated microglial-linked state enriched in white matter and reduced by senotherapeutic interventions.

Mapping and manipulating aged and senescent microglia

Single-cell spatial mapping and orthogonal approaches reveal a senescent and disease-associated microglial state that accumulates in the white matter of the aged mouse brain and is suppressed by senotherapeutic interventions.

From Gut to Fat: Intestinal Epithelial Exosomes Target PDGFRα+ Progenitors to Promote Lipogenesis and Counteract Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Atrophy in Aging

Young small intestinal epithelial-derived exosomes (young-SI-Exos) deliver miR-379-5p, which targets Usp34 to suppress the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, thereby promoting adipocyte differentiation, enhancing lipid metabolism, and increasing lipid droplets in PDGFRα+ progenitors, ultimately reversing age-related subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) atrophy.
