          Abstract

          Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased risk for end-organ morbidities, which can collectively be viewed as accelerated aging. Vascular senescence is an important contributor to end-organ dysfunction. Exosomes are released ubiquitously into the circulation, and transfer their cargo to target cells facilitating physiological and pathological processes. Plasma exosomes from 15 patients with polysomnographically diagnosed OSA at baseline (OSA-T1) after 12 months of adherent continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment (OSA-T2), 13 untreated OSA patients at 12-month intervals (OSA-NT1, OSA-NT2), and 12 controls (CO1 and CO2) were applied on naïve human microvascular endothelialcells-dermal (HMVEC-d). Expression of several senescence gene markers including p16 (CDKN2A), SIRT1, and SIRT6 and immunostaining for β-galactosidase activity (x-gal) were performed. Endothelial cells were also exposed to intermittent hypoxia (IH) or normoxia (RA) or treated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), stained with x-gal and subjected to qRT-PCR. Exosomes from OSA-T1, OSA-NT1, and OSA-NT2 induced significant increases in x-gal staining compared to OSA-T2, CO1, and CO2 (p-value < 0.01). p16 expression was significantly increased (p < 0.01), while SIRT1 and SIRT6 expression levels were decreased (p < 0.02 and p < 0.009). Endothelial cells exposed to IH or to H2O2 showed significant increases in x-gal staining (p < 0.001) and in senescence gene expression. Circulating exosomes in untreated OSA induce marked and significant increases in senescence of naïve endothelial cells, which are only partially reversible upon long-term adherent CPAP treatment. Furthermore, endothelial cells exposed to IH or H2O2 also elicit similar responses. Thus, OSA either directly or indirectly via exosomes may initiate and exacerbate cellular aging, possibly via oxidative stress-related pathways.

          Cellular senescence in aging and age-related disease: from mechanisms to therapy.

          Cellular senescence, a process that imposes permanent proliferative arrest on cells in response to various stressors, has emerged as a potentially important contributor to aging and age-related disease, and it is an attractive target for therapeutic exploitation. A wealth of information about senescence in cultured cells has been acquired over the past half century; however, senescence in living organisms is poorly understood, largely because of technical limitations relating to the identification and characterization of senescent cells in tissues and organs. Furthermore, newly recognized beneficial signaling functions of senescence suggest that indiscriminately targeting senescent cells or modulating their secretome for anti-aging therapy may have negative consequences. Here we discuss current progress and challenges in understanding the stressors that induce senescence in vivo, the cell types that are prone to senesce, and the autocrine and paracrine properties of senescent cells in the contexts of aging and age-related diseases as well as disease therapy.

            Long-term cardiovascular outcomes in men with obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea with or without treatment with continuous positive airway pressure: an observational study.

            The effect of obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea as a cardiovascular risk factor and the potential protective effect of its treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is unclear. We did an observational study to compare incidence of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events in simple snorers, patients with untreated obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea, patients treated with CPAP, and healthy men recruited from the general population. We recruited men with obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea or simple snorers from a sleep clinic, and a population-based sample of healthy men, matched for age and body-mass index with the patients with untreated severe obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea. The presence and severity of the disorder was determined with full polysomnography, and the apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) was calculated as the average number of apnoeas and hypopnoeas per hour of sleep. Participants were followed-up at least once per year for a mean of 10.1 years (SD 1.6) and CPAP compliance was checked with the built-in meter. Endpoints were fatal cardiovascular events (death from myocardial infarction or stroke) and non-fatal cardiovascular events (non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, coronary artery bypass surgery, and percutaneous transluminal coronary angiography). 264 healthy men, 377 simple snorers, 403 with untreated mild-moderate obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea, 235 with untreated severe disease, and 372 with the disease and treated with CPAP were included in the analysis. Patients with untreated severe disease had a higher incidence of fatal cardiovascular events (1.06 per 100 person-years) and non-fatal cardiovascular events (2.13 per 100 person-years) than did untreated patients with mild-moderate disease (0.55, p=0.02 and 0.89, p<0.0001), simple snorers (0.34, p=0.0006 and 0.58, p<0.0001), patients treated with CPAP (0.35, p=0.0008 and 0.64, p<0.0001), and healthy participants (0.3, p=0.0012 and 0.45, p<0.0001). Multivariate analysis, adjusted for potential confounders, showed that untreated severe obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea significantly increased the risk of fatal (odds ratio 2.87, 95%CI 1.17-7.51) and non-fatal (3.17, 1.12-7.51) cardiovascular events compared with healthy participants. In men, severe obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea significantly increases the risk of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events. CPAP treatment reduces this risk.

              Forging a signature of in vivo senescence.

              'Cellular senescence', a term originally defining the characteristics of cultured cells that exceed their replicative limit, has been broadened to describe durable states of proliferative arrest induced by disparate stress factors. Proposed relationships between cellular senescence, tumour suppression, loss of tissue regenerative capacity and ageing suffer from lack of uniform definition and consistently applied criteria. Here, we highlight caveats in interpreting the importance of suboptimal senescence-associated biomarkers, expressed either alone or in combination. We advocate that more-specific descriptors be substituted for the now broadly applied umbrella term 'senescence' in defining the suite of diverse physiological responses to cellular stress.
