CK2α restriction of STING accumulation underlies systemic aging.

Chronic activation of the cGAS-STING pathway drives inflammaging and cellular senescence. Although nuclear envelope (NE) barrier failure leading to cytoplasmic chromatin leakage is a key trigger, the molecular mechanisms governing STING activity at the NE during aging remain poorly understood. Here, we identify lamin A/C (LMNA) as a critical NE scaffold that orchestrates STING regulation by recruiting both STING and Casein Kinase 2 (CK2α). We demonstrate that LMNA facilitates the phosphorylation of STING at Ser366 by CK2α, which promotes STING turnover and restricts its accumulation, thereby attenuating pathway activation and mitigating senescence in myeloid cells as well as systemic aging. Strikingly, pharmacologic STING inhibition in vivo robustly rescues progeroid phenotypes-including loss of bone density and multi-tissue senescence-and extends lifespan in progeroid mouse models. Moreover, H-151 treatment also ameliorates the premature aging phenotypes induced by myeloid-specific CK2α ablation. In contrast, constitutive STING ablation yields limited survival benefits, revealing that controlled attenuation of STING signaling, rather than complete elimination, drives therapeutic efficacy. Our findings establish the LMNA-CK2-STING axis as a key biochemical mechanism that suppresses innate immune activation at the NE, offering a promising strategy for ameliorating aging and progeroid pathologies.
