Abstract
Cellular senescence is a complex multifactorial biological phenomenon that plays essential roles in aging, and aging-related diseases. During this process, the senescent cells undergo gene expression altering and chromatin structure remodeling. However, studies on the epigenetic landscape of senescence using integrated multi-omics approaches are limited. In this research, we performed ATAC-seq, RNA-seq and ChIP-seq on different senescent types to reveal the landscape of senescence and identify the prime regulatory elements. We also obtained 34 key genes and deduced that NAT1, PBX1 and RRM2, which interacted with each other, could be the potential markers of aging and aging-related diseases. In summary, our work provides the landscape to study accessibility dynamics and transcriptional regulations in cellular senescence. The application of this technique in different types of senescence allows us to identify the regulatory elements responsible for the substantial regulation of transcription, providing the insights into molecular mechanisms of senescence.
