Abstract (original English)

The objective of this study is to explore how adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) regulate mitochondrial structure and function and the impact of this regulation on slowing cellular senescence. HFF-1 cells were induced by H 2 O 2 to establish a cellular senescence model, and ASCs or Mdivi-1 (mitochondrial fission inhibitor) was added. MTT examined the cell proliferation; flow cytometry detected mitochondrial membrane potential as well as apoptosis and cell cycle; kit measured ATP production; ELISA analyzed the levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor alpha-like (TNF-α), glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD); Western blotting and qRT-PCR detected the expression of protein and mRNA levels; and β-galactosidase staining observed the degree of cellular senescence. Compared to normal HFF-1 cells, senescent HFF-1 cells exhibited weaker proliferative capacity, marked apoptosis, and G0-G1 cell cycle arrest. These cells also showed lower mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP production, higher expression of inflammatory factors, oxidative damage, and increased levels of senescence. Treatment with Mdivi-1 or ASCs enhanced HFF-1 cell proliferation, reduced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest, increased mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP production, decreased the expression of inflammatory factors, and mitigated
