The Zbp1 gene has recently emerged as a potential therapeutic target for age-related diseases. Multiple studies have reported that Zbp1 plays a key role in regulating several aging hallmarks, including cellular senescence, chronic inflammation, DNA damage response, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Regarding cellular senescence, Zbp1 appears to regulate the onset and progression of senescence by controlling the expression of key markers such as p16INK4a and p21CIP1/WAF1. Similarly, evidence suggests that Zbp1 plays a role in regulating inflammation by promoting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 and IL-1β, through activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Furthermore, Zbp1 seems to be involved in the DNA damage response, coordinating the cellular response to DNA damage by regulating the expression of genes such as p53 and ATM. Additionally, Zbp1 appears to regulate mitochondrial function, which is crucial for energy production and cellular homeostasis. Given the involvement of Zbp1 in multiple aging hallmarks, targeting this gene represents a potential strategy to prevent or treat age-related diseases. For example, inhibiting Zbp1 activity could be a promising approach to reduce cellular senescence and chronic inflammation, two critical hallmarks of aging associated with various age-related diseases. Similarly, modulating Zbp1 expression or activity could also improve DNA damage response and mitochondrial function, thus delaying or preventing the development of age-related diseases. Overall, the Zbp1 gene appears to be a promising therapeutic target for age-related diseases. In the current review, we have discussed the molecular mechanisms underlying the involvement of Zbp1 in aging hallmarks and proposed to develop effective strategies to target this gene for therapeutic purposes.
