Abstract

AbstractSearching for biomarkers of senescence remains necessary and challenging. Reliable and detectable biomarkers can indicate the senescence condition of individuals, the need for intervention in a population, and the effectiveness of that intervention in controlling or delaying senescence progression and senescence‐associated diseases. Therefore, it is of great importance to fulfill the unmet requisites of senescence biomarkers especially when faced with the growing global senescence nowadays. Here, we established that DNA G‐quadruplex (G4) in mitochondrial genome was a reliable hallmark for mesenchymal senescence. Via developing a versatile and efficient mitochondrial G4 (mtG4) probe we revealed that in multiple types of senescence, including chronologically healthy senescence, progeria, and replicative senescence, mtG4 hallmarked aged mesenchymal stem cells. Furthermore, we revealed the underlying mechanisms by which accumulated mtG4, specifically within respiratory chain complex (RCC) I and IV loci, repressed mitochondrial genome transcription, finally impairing mitochondrial respiration and causing mitochondrial dysfunction. Our findings endowed researchers with the visible senescence biomarker based on mitochondrial genome and furthermore revealed the role of mtG4 in inhibiting RCC genes transcription to induce senescence‐associated mitochondrial dysfunction. These findings depicted the crucial roles of mtG4 in predicting and controlling mesenchymal senescence.
