Abstract Compounds with specific cytotoxic activity in senescent cells, or senolytics, support the causal involvement of senescence in aging and offer therapeutic interventions. Here we report the identification of Cardiac Glycosides (CGs) as a family of compounds with senolytic activity. CGs, by targeting the Na+/K+ATPase pump, cause a disbalanced electrochemical gradient within the cell causing depolarization and acidification. Senescent cells present a slightly depolarized plasma membrane and higher concentrations of H+, making them more susceptible to the action of CGs. These vulnerabilities can be exploited for therapeutic purposes as evidenced by the in vivo eradication of tumors xenografted in mice after treatment with the combination of a senogenic and a senolytic drug. The senolytic effect of CGs is also effective in the elimination of senescence-induced lung fibrosis. This experimental approach allows the identification of compounds with senolytic activity that could potentially be used to develop effective treatments against age-related diseases.

Identification And Characterization

Previous investigations [Jones, Brown, von Glos & Gaunt (1985) Exp. Cell Res. 156, 31-44] have demonstrated the appearance of a new antigenic determinant (recognized by monoclonal antibody 2D6) on the plasma membrane of rat spermatozoa during post-testicular maturation in the epididymis. Identification of the 2D6 antigen on Western blots from one-dimensional SDS/polyacrylamide gels revealed that it co-migrated with a membrane protein (designated Mr 23,000 antigen) present on testicular and immature germ cells, suggesting that one antigen might be a modified version of the other. In the present work, however, we demonstrate that, although they have similar Mr and are present in soluble and membrane-bound forms, the 2D6 and Mr 23,000 antigens are biochemically and immunologically distinct molecules. The properties of the antigens are described and compared. The Mr 23,000 antigen is present on both testicular and cauda epididymidal spermatozoa, has a pI of 6.1, contains no detectable carbohydrate, is not tissue-specific and is degraded by V8 protease. By contrast, the 2D6 antigen is glycosylated, has a broad pI from 4.5 to 6.1, is tissue- and species-specific and is resistant to digestion with V8 protease. Its role in sperm-egg recognition is discussed.
