ABSTRACT
The senescence of alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) and fibroblasts plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a condition lacking specific therapeutic interventions. Curculigoside (CCG), a prominent bioactive constituent of Curculigo, exhibits anti-osteoporotic and antioxidant activities. Our investigation aimed to elucidate the anti-senescence and anti-fibrotic effects of CCG in experimental pulmonary fibrosis and delineate its underlying molecular mechanisms. Our findings demonstrate that CCG attenuates bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis and lung senescence in murine models, concomitantly ameliorating lung function impairment. Immunofluorescence staining for senescence marker p21, alongside SPC or α-SMA, suggested that CCG's mitigation of lung senescence correlates closely with the deceleration of senescence in AECs and fibroblasts. In vitro, CCG mitigated H2O2-induced senescence in AECs and the natural senescence of primary mouse fibroblasts. Mechanistically, CCG can upregulate SIRT1 expression, downregulating P300 expression, enhancing Trim72 expression to facilitate P300 ubiquitination and degradation, reducing the acetylation levels of antioxidant enzymes, and upregulating their expression levels. These actions collectively inhibited endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and alleviated senescence. Furthermore, the anti-senescence effects and mechanisms of CCG were validated in a D-galactose (D-gal)-induced progeroid model. This study provides novel insights into the mechanisms underlying the action of CCG in cellular senescence and chronic diseases, offering potential avenues for the development of innovative drugs or therapeutic strategies.
