摘要

Human diploid fibroblasts undergo a limited number of population doublings in vitro and are used widely as a model of cellular aging. Despite growing evidence that cellular aging occurs as a consequence of altered gene expression, little is known about the activity of transcription factors in aging cells. Here, we report a dramatic reduction in the ability of proteins extracted from the nuclei of near-senescent fibroblasts to bind the serum response element which is necessary for serum-induced transcription of the c-fos gene. In contrast, the activities of proteins binding to the RNA polymerase core element, TATA, as well as to the cyclic AMP response element were maintained during cellular aging. While no major differences in the expression of the serum response factor (SRF) that binds the serum response element were seen between early-passage and late-passage cells, hyperphosphorylation of SRF was observed in near-senescent cells. Furthermore, removal of phosphatase inhibitors during the isolation of endogenous nuclear proteins restored the ability of SRF isolated from old cells to bind the SRE. These data, therefore, indicate that hyperphosphorylation of SRF plays a role in altering the ability of this protein to bind to DNA and regulate gene expression in senescent cells.
