description | Alternative splicing plays a fundamental role in gene expression and protein complexity. Aberrant splicing impairs cell homeostasis and is closely associated with aging and cellular senescence. Significant changes to alternative splicing, including dysregulated splicing events and the abnormal expression of splicing factors, have been detected during the aging process or in age-related disorders. Here, we highlight the possibility of suppressing aging and cellular senescence by controlling alternative splicing. In this review, we will summarize the latest research progress on alternative splicing in aging and cellular senescence, discuss the roles and regulatory mechanisms of alternative splicing during aging, and then excavate existing and potential approaches to anti-aging by controlling alternative splicing. Novel therapeutic breakthroughs concerning aging and senescence entail a further understanding of regulating alternative splicing mechanically and accurately. |
