Intestinal Fork Head Regulates Nutrient Absorption and Promotes Longevity

ABSTRACT: We identified that Drosophila FoxA transcription Fork Head (FKH) function is necessary for reduced insulin signalling and rapamycin induced longevity. Furthermore, we determined that FKH function in the gut tissue alone is sufficient to extend lifespan. We carried out RNA-sequencing in gut tissue on controls (daGS;InRDN>GFP- RNAi) and reduced insulin signalling background upon control RNAi (daGS;InRDN>GFPRNAi +RU486) and upon FKH RNAi (daGS;InRDN>FKH- RNAi +RU486). InR-DN stock used: K1409A.

Reduced activity of nutrient-sensing signaling networks can extend organismal lifespan, yet the underlying biology remains unclear. We show that the anti-aging effects of rapamycin and reduced intestinal insulin/insulin growth factor (IGF) signaling (IIS) require the Drosophila FoxA transcription factor homolog Fork Head (FKH). Intestinal FKH induction extends lifespan, highlighting a role for the gut. FKH binds to and is phosphorylated by AKT and Target of Rapamycin. Gut-specific FKH upregulati ...[more]

Cell-type-specific modulation of longevity by Forkhead family transcription factors in the Drosophila nervous system

Project description:We previously found that the Drosophila FoxA transcription Fork Head (FKH) is necessary for reduced insulin signalling to extend lifespan. We have now identified that increased expression of FKH in neurons alone is sufficient to extend healthy lifespan. We carried out RNA-sequencing in head tissue on controls (daGS>InRDN,GFP-RNAi without RU-486) and reduced insulin signalling with control RNAi (daGS>InRDN,GFP-RNAi with RU486) and reduced insulin signalling with FKH RNAi (daGS>InRDN,FKH-RNAi with RU486).

The SWI/SNF Complex Regulates the PRDM Protein Hamlet to Ensure Lineage Directionality in Drosophila Neural Stem Cells

Project description:Members of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex are among the most frequently mutated genes in human cancer. SWI/SNF complex controls self-renewal and differentiation in stem cell lineages but how this function relates to tumorigenesis is currently unclear. Here, we use Drosophila neuroblasts to demonstrate that the SWI/SNF component Osa (ARID1) prevents tumorigenesis in stem cell lineages by ensuring correct unidirectional lineage progression. Our transcriptome anaysis identifies Ham as a key Osa target gene. comparison of transcriptomes of wild type Drosophila melanogaster larval type II NB lineages (excluding neurons) and osa RNAi type II lineages containing mainly NB-like cells and INPs

Ecdysone and Mediator trigger a metabolic switch uncoupling cell cycle from cell growth to end proliferation in Drosophila neural stem cells

Project description:Stem cells are highly abundant and proliferate rapidly during early development but become a rare population in most adult organs. The molecular mechanisms causing stem cells to exit proliferation at a specific time are not well understood. Here, we show that changes in energy metabolism induced by the steroid hormone Ecdysone initiate an irreversible cascade of events leading to cell cycle exit in Drosophila neural stem cells. We show that the timely induction of oxidative phosphorylation and the mitochondrial respiratory chain are required in neuroblasts to uncouple cell cycle progression from cell growth. This results in a progressive reduction in neuroblast cell size and ultimately in terminal differentiation. Neuroblasts isolated from brain tumors fail to undergo this shrinkage process and this may explain why they are immortalized. Our findings show that cell size control can be modified by systemic hormonal signaling and reveal a unique connection between metabolism and proliferation control in stem cells.

Dm Ladybird over-expression and loss-of-function Expression Profiling

Project description:In order to identify Ladybird mesodermal and heart target genes, we decided to analyse the transcriptional profiling of embryos with a targeted gain and Loss of function approach. Embryos were collected at stages 11 to 15 of embryogenesis corresponding to the lb expression period. Homozygous ectopically expressing or repressing embryos were collected from a large scale cross of UAS-lbe or UAS-RNAi-lbe flies with 24B-Gal4 or Tin-Gal4 flies, in parallel to stage-matched control. Three independent collections were performed. Total RNA was extracted. Ectopically expression and reference samples were hybridized together on GeneChip Drosophila Genome array2. With this approach, we were able to dicover a repertory of genes involved in different aspects of muscle and heart formation showing a multi-step action of this family of identity genes.

The faint sausage gene encodes a subunit of the spliceosome-activating Prp19 complex and is required for tracheal branching morphogenesis in Drosophila

Project description:Morphogenesis requires the dynamic regulation of gene expression, including transcription, mRNA maturation and translation. Dysfunction of general components of the splicing machinery can cause surprisingly specific phenotypes, but the basis for these cell-type specific effects is not clear. Here we show that the faint sausage (fas) locus, implicated in epithelial morphogenesis and previously reported to encode a secreted immunoglobulin domain protein, in fact encodes a subunit of the Prp19 complex that is essential for efficient pre-mRNA splicing. Loss of zygotic fas function impairs the efficiency of splicing, associated with widespread retention of introns in mature mRNAs and dramatic changes in gene expression. Surprisingly, despite these general effects, zygotic fas mutants show specific defects in tracheal cell migration. Zygotic fas function becomes essential during late embryogenesis when maternally supplied splicing factors decline. We propose that tracheal branching, which relies on dynamic changes in gene expression, is particularly sensitive for efficient spliceosome function. Our results provide an entry point to study functions of splicing during organogenesis and provide a better understanding of specific disease phenotypes associated with mutations in general splicing factors.

The exon junction complex regulates the splicing of cell polarity gene dlg1 to control Wingless signaling in development

Project description:Wingless (Wg)/Wnt signaling is conserved in all metazoan animals and plays critical roles in development. The Wg/Wnt morphogen reception is essential for signal activation, whose activity is mediated through the receptor complex and a scaffold protein Dishevelled (Dsh). We report here that the exon junction complex (EJC) activity is indispensable for Wg signaling by maintaining an appropriate level of Dsh protein for Wg ligand reception in Drosophila. Transcriptome analyses in Drosophila wing imaginal discs indicate that the EJC controls the splicing of the cell polarity gene disc large 1 (dlg1), whose coding protein directly interacts with Dsh. Genetic and biochemical experiments demonstrate that Dlg1 protein acts independently from its role in cell polarity to protect Dsh protein from lysosomal degradation. More importantly, human orthologous Dlg protein is sufficient to promote Dvl protein stabilization and Wnt signaling activity, thus revealing a conserved regulatory mechanism of Wg/Wnt signaling by Dlg and EJC. whole transcriptome RNA-seq to examine mRNAs extracted from wildtype (i.e. overexpressing lacZ) and pre-EJC-defective (i.e. overexpressing tsu RNAi) wing discs, respectively.

Systems Modeling of the Rho Signaling Network

Project description:Describing the architecture of robust, nonlinear cell signaling networks is essential to gain a predictive understanding of cellular behavior. The structure of the Drosophila Rho-signaling network, comprised of Rho-family GTPases, RhoGTP Exchange Factors (RhoGEFs), and RhoGTPase Activating Proteins (RhoGAPs), has been particularly difficult to infer due to the highly overlapping function and substrate specificity of network components. We developed a parameterized modeling approach to predict connectivity amongst components of the Rho-signaling network that was driven by hundreds of mRNA expression profiles derived from RNAi-mediated inhibition or overexpression of component genes. Our model incorporated rate kinetics, transcriptional feedback, and noise. We biochemically validated several novel predicted connections, and used this model to predict Rho-signaling response to particular conditions. While functional redundancy is a feature of all signaling systems that often prevents classical genetic methods from elucidating relationships between components, the methods described here provide the basis for describing any complex network architecture. Keywords: Genetic modification, RNAi-mediated gene inhibition 129 samples analyzed. Experiments were peformed in batches of 4 containing 1 control/reference sample (transfection of GFP alone) that was prepared in parallel with experimental samples. There are 30 reference samples. The majority of experiments were replicated 2-6 times.
