AbstractThe rising trend in global cancer incidence has caused widespread concern, one of the main reasons being the aging of the global population. Statistical data show that cancer incidence and mortality rates show a clear upward trend with age. Although there is a commonality between dysregulated nutrient sensing, which is one of the main features of aging, and metabolic reprogramming of tumor cells, the specific regulatory relationship is not clear. This manuscript intends to comprehensively analyze the relationship between senescence and tumor metabolic reprogramming; as well as reveal the impact of key factors leading to cellular senescence on tumorigenesis. In addition, this review summarizes the current intervention strategies targeting nutrient sensing pathways, as well as the clinical cases of treating tumors targeting the characteristics of senescence with the existing nanodelivery research strategies. Finally, it also suggests sensible dietary habits for those who wish to combat aging. In conclusion, this review attempts to sort out the link between aging and metabolism and provide new ideas for cancer treatment.
