Abstract
Senescent cells develop senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) which possesses multiple biological functions via autocrine or paracrine manner. However, the status of the protein kinase D1 (PKD1)-mediated classical protein secretory pathway from trans-Golgi network (TGN) to cell surface during cellular senescence and its role in cellular senescent response remain unknown. Here, we show that the activities or quantities of the critical components of this pathway including PKD1, ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1), and phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIIβ (PI4KIIIβ) at TGN are increased in senescent cells. Block of this pathway decreases IL-6/IL-8 secretion and results in IL-6/IL-8 accumulation in SASP-competent senescent cells. Intervention of this pathway reduces IL-6/IL-8 secretion during Ras OIS, retards Ras OIS and alleviates its associated ER stress and autophagy. Last, targeting of this pathway triggers SASP-producing senescent cells death due to the intracellular accumulation of massive IL-6/IL-8. Together, our results unveil the hyperactivity state of protein secretory pathway in SASP-competent senescent cells and its critical functions in mediating SASP factors secretion and Ras OIS process, as well as in determining senescent cells fate.

Cell scientist to watch – 2018 Hooke medal winner Andrew McAinsh
“…identify an interesting, good scientific question and try to answer it.”
Andrew McAinsh, Head of Division of Biomedical Sciences at Warwick Medical School, is interested in understanding how the chromosomal multi-protein complex, the kinetochore, ensures error-free chromosome segregation. He is the recipient of the 2018 Hooke medal, established to recognize an emerging leader in cell biology.
We also feature interviews with first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Check out our recent First Person interviews with Thibault Courtheoux and Alghassimou Diallo, Francesco Consolato and Emily Herman.
