The expression of senescence-associated genes, which governs the progression and the maintenance of senescence, is regulated at multiple levels. Apart from the transcriptional mechanisms that control cellular senescence, studies over the past decade have revealed that post-transcriptional gene regulation, especially through changes in mRNA turnover and translation, critically influences protein expression patterns in the senescent cell. Among the post-transcriptional regulatory factors, RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are particularly influential in the establishment of senescence-associated protein profiles. In this review, I discuss the current knowledge of the role of RBPs in cellular senescence and the molecular mechanisms that regulate their function.
