The Interplay between Oxidative Stress and the Nuclear Lamina Contributes to Laminopathies and Age-Related Diseases

초록

Oxidative stress is a physiological condition that arises when there is an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the ability of cells to neutralize them. ROS can damage cellular macromolecules, including lipids, proteins, and DNA, leading to cellular senescence and physiological aging. The nuclear lamina (NL) is a meshwork of intermediate filaments that provides structural support to the nucleus and plays crucial roles in various nuclear functions, such as DNA replication and transcription. Emerging evidence suggests that oxidative stress disrupts the integrity and function of the NL, leading to dysregulation of gene expression, DNA damage, and cellular senescence. This review highlights the current understanding of the interplay between oxidative stress and the NL, along with its implications for human health. Specifically, elucidation of the mechanisms underlying the interplay between oxidative stress and the NL is essential for the development of effective treatments for laminopathies and age-related diseases.
