mTOR regulates the SASP. In senescent cells, mTOR regulates the SASP by controlling the translation of IL1A and MAPKAPK2. MAPKAPK2 phosphorylates and inhibits the RNA-binding protein ZFP36L1, thereby preventing the degradation of SASP transcripts by ARE-mediated decay. Additionally, IL1α activates NF-κB in a cell-autonomous manner to promote the transcription of SASP genes. Upon mTOR inhibition, ZFP36L1 degrades SASP transcripts and the IL1α feedback loop is abrogated.
