Enescent cells to apoptose and exclude potential `off-target’ effects of the drugs on nonsenescent cell types, which require continued presence of the drugs, for example, throughEffects on treadmill exercise capacity in mice pnas.1602641113 after single leg radiation exposureTo test further the hypothesis that D+Q functions through elimination of senescent cells, we tested the effect of a single treatment in a mouse leg irradiation model. One leg of 4-month-old male mice was irradiated at 10 Gy with the rest of the body shielded. Controls were sham-irradiated. By 12 weeks, hair on the irradiated leg turned gray (Fig. 5A) and the animals exhibited reduced treadmill exercise capacity (Fig. 5B). Five days after a single dose of D+Q, exercise time, distance, and total work performed to exhaustion on the treadmill was greater in the mice treated with D+Q compared to vehicle (Fig. 5C). Senescent markers were reduced in muscle and inguinal fat 5 days after treatment (Fig. 3G-I). At 7 months after the single treatment, exercise capacity was significantly better in the mice that had been irradiated and received the single dose of D+Q than in vehicletreated controls (Fig. 5D). D+Q-treated animals had endurance essentially identical to that of sham-irradiated controls. The single dose of D+Q hadFig. 1 Senescent cells can be selectively targeted by QuisinostatMedChemExpress JNJ-26481585 suppressing pro-survival mechanisms. (A) Principal components analysis of detected features in senescent (green squares) vs. nonsenescent (red squares) human abdominal subcutaneous preadipocytes indicating major differences between senescent and nonsenescent preadipocytes in overall gene expression.
