Glucocorticoids and DHEA: Do They Have a Role in Immunosenescence?

Abstract: : This chapter summarizes recent work suggesting that human immunosenescence may be closely related to both psychological distress and stress hormones. The age-related immunological changes are also similarly found during chronic

“…However, considering the original nature of SASP to attract immune cells for senescence immune surveillance, it would be important to of senescent cells thus hampering long term positive beneficial effects. In the case of glucocorticoids, this class of compounds may induce senescence [25], prevent apoptosis with mechanisms involving upregulation of Bcl-xL [26], suppress the SASP [27], and have been associated with immunosenescence [28], thus suggesting a deleterious impact on senescence immune surveillances. Hence, it would not be surprising to find out that part of side effects associated with long term use of glucocorticoids (e.g in patients with asthma or chronic respiratory diseases) are the consequence of accumulating senescent cells.…”
