As a hallmark of aging, cellular senescence plays a crucial role in various age-related musculoskeletal diseases, including osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, intervertebral disc degeneration, and sarcopenia. The detrimental effects of senescence are primarily due to impaired regenerative capacity of stem cells and the pro-inflammatory environment created by accumulated senescent cells. The secreted senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) can induce senescence in neighboring cells, further amplifying senescent signals. Although the removal of senescent cells and the suppression of SASP factors have shown promise in alleviating disease progression and restoring musculoskeletal health in mouse models, clinical trials have yet to demonstrate significant efficacy. This review summarizes the mechanisms of cellular senescence in age-related musculoskeletal diseases and discusses potential therapeutic strategies targeting cellular senescence.展开更多
