Aβ<sub>1–42</sub> oligomers exert neurotoxic and pro-inflammatory effects. Astrocytes maintain brain homeostasis, and their dysfunction contributes to AD progression. This study investigates the impact of Aβ<sub>1–42</sub> oligomers on primary human astrocytes from healthy individuals and AD patients. Our findings show that astrocytes from both groups internalise Aβ<sub>1–42</sub> oligomers. In healthy astrocytes, internalisation enhances proteasome activity, whereas in AD astrocytes, it reduces it. Aβ<sub>1–42</sub> oligomers induce calcium dyshomeostasis and mitochondrial membrane potential alterations in both groups. Interestingly, oligomers induce apoptosis in a subset of healthy astrocytes, while surviving ones become reactive and hyperproliferative, releasing neuroinflammatory and neurotrophic molecules. Conversely, Aβ<sub>1–42</sub> drives AD astrocytes into senescence, characterised by increased β-galactosidase activity, p14<sup>ARF</sup> expression, senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and heterochromatin foci. Importantly, conditioned media from Aβ<sub>1–42</sub>-treated AD astrocytes, but not from healthy ones, cause death of differentiated SH-SY5Y neuron-like cells, suggesting that senescent astrocytes contribute to neurotoxicity. These findings reveal differential astrocytic responses to Aβ<sub>1–42</sub> oligomers, emphasising the importance of astrocyte senescence in AD pathogenesis. This research offers insight into cellular mechanisms underlying AD and may support the development of innovative therapeutic strategies for neurodegenerative diseases.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18340,"journal":{"name":"Mechanisms of Ageing and Development","volume":"228 ","pages":"Article 112116"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145176423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Risk factors have focused on diet, physical exercise, cognitive activity, and lifestyle habits; however, recent research has begun to explore how the oral microbiome may influence health and contribute to chronic diseases. The aim of our systematic review is to evaluate the link between human oral microbiome and aging. This SR was carried out using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase, identifying 3490 records, of which 6 met our inclusion/exclusion criteria. These studies were qualitatively assessed using the Revised Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Nonrandomized Studies of Interventions. Overall, the evidence suggests that while the bacterial and fungal communities remain similar across age groups, there is an increased presence of periodontal pathogens in older subjects. Moreover, bacterial species richness and alpha-diversity decrease with advancing age, though no clear age clustering was observed. Although the reviewed studies offer insights into the association between aging and changes in the oral microbiome, further research is required to address confounding factors, limitations in sample size, and gender differences, in order to better elucidate the role of microbiome alterations in general health.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18340,"journal":{"name":"Mechanisms of Ageing and Development","volume":"226 ","pages":"Article 112080"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144205600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
