Abstract

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is considered as an age-related disease, and cellular senescence (CS) plays a crucial role in cancer development and progression. Previous studies have shown the role of epigenetic changes in aging and cancer development, but the role of RNA pseudouridine (Ψ) modification in aging and cancer remains to be explored.

Results: Using bulk RNA sequencing, CRC cells with low Ψ writers expression levels have higher CS levels. We developed the Psi Score for assessing the transcriptomic profile of RNA Ψ modification regulation and found that the Psi Score correlates with CS. Furthermore, Psi-related senescence may be mediated by mTOR, TGF-β, TNF-α, and inflammatory response signaling pathways. Meanwhile, Psi Score could predict the anti-cancer treatment outcomes of anti-aging interventions and could be used to predict the response to immunotherapy.

Conclusions: Overall, these findings reveal that RNA Ψ modification connected aging and cancer and provided novel insights into biomarker-guided cancer regimens.
