Proteins are molecular machines that provide structure and perform vital transport, signalling and enzymatic roles. Proteins expressed by cells require tight regulation of their concentration, folding, localisation, and modifications; however, this state of protein homeostasis is continuously perturbed by tissue-level stresses. While cells in healthy tissues are able to buffer against these perturbations, for example, by expression of chaperone proteins, protein homeostasis is lost in ageing, and can lead to protein aggregation characteristic of protein folding diseases. Here, we review reports of a progressive disconnect between transcriptomic and proteomic regulation during cellular ageing. We discuss how age-associated changes to cellular responses to specific stressors in the tissue microenvironment are exacerbated by loss of ribosomal proteins, ribosomal pausing, and mistranslation.

Background: Stroke has emerged as an escalating public health challenge among middle-aged and older individuals in China, closely linked to glycolipid metabolic abnormalities. The Hemoglobin A1c/High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HbA1c/HDL-C) ratio, an integrated marker of glycolipid homeostasis, may serve as a novel predictor of stroke risk.
Methods: Our investigation utilized data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study cohort (2011-2018).

The 40S ribosomal subunit recycling pathway is an integral link in the cellular quality control network, occurring after translational errors have been corrected by the ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) machinery. Despite our understanding of its role, the impact of translation quality control on cellular metabolism remains poorly understood. Here, we reveal a conserved role of the 40S ribosomal subunit recycling (USP10-G3BP1) complex in regulating mitochondrial dynamics and function.

Cellular senescence precipitates a decline in physiological activities and metabolic functions, often accompanied by heightened inflammatory responses, diminished immune function, and impaired tissue and organ performance. Despite extensive research, the mechanisms underpinning cellular senescence remain incompletely elucidated. Emerging evidence implicates circadian rhythm and hypoxia as pivotal factors in cellular senescence.

Mitochondria derive the majority of their lipids from other organelles through contact sites. These lipids, primarily phosphoglycerolipids, are the main components of mitochondrial membranes. In the cell, neutral lipids like triacylglycerides (TAGs) are stored in lipid droplets, playing an important role in maintaining cellular health.
