Popis: Background & aims The mechanisms involved in liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PHx) are complicated. Cellular senescence, once linked to aging, plays a pivotal role in wound repair. However, the regulatory effects of cellular senescence on liver regeneration have not been fully elucidated. Approach & results Mice subjected to PHx were analyzed 14 days after surgery. The incomplete remodeling of liver sinusoids affected shear stress-induced eNOS signaling on day 14, resulting in the accumulation of senescent liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs). Removing macrophages to augment LSEC senescence led to a malfunction of the regenerating liver. A dynamic fluctuation in Notch activity accompanied senescent LSEC accumulation during liver regeneration. Endothelial Notch activation by using Cdh5-CreERT NICeCA mice triggered LSEC senescence and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which disrupted liver regeneration. Blocking the Notch by γ-secretase inhibitor (GSI) diminished senescence and promoted LSEC expansion. Mechanically, Notch-Hes1 signaling inhibited Sirt1 transcription by binding to its promoter region. Activation of Sirt1 by SRT1720 neutralized the up-regulation of P53, P21, and P16 caused by Notch activation, and eliminated Notch-driven LSEC senescence. Finally, Sirt1 activator promoted liver regeneration by abrogating LSEC senescence and improving sinusoid remodeling. Conclusions Shear stress-induced LSEC senescence driven by Notch interferes with liver regeneration after PHx. Sirt1 inhibition accelerates liver regeneration by abrogating Notch-driven senescence, providing a potential opportunity to target senescent cells and facilitate liver repair after injury.
