CPT2 K79 acetylation regulates platelet life span.

ABSTRACT: The short life span of platelets is a major challenge to platelet transfusion services because of the lack of effective intervention. Here, we found that the accumulation of long-chain acylcarnitines (LCACs) is responsible for mitochondrial damage and platelet storage lesion. Further studies showed that the blockade of fatty acid oxidation and the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/acetyl-CoA carboxylase/carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) pathways that promote fatty acid metabolism are important reasons for the accumulation of LCACs. The excessive accumulation of LCACs can cause mitochondrial damage and a short life span of stored platelets. The mechanism study elucidated that NAD+ exhaustion and the subsequent decrease in sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) activity caused an increase in the level of CPT2 K79 acetylation, which is the primary cause of the blockade of fatty acid oxidation and the accumulation of LCACs. Blocking LCAC generation with the inhibitors of AMPK or CPT1, the agonists of Sirt3, and antioxidants tremendously retarded platelet storage lesion in vitro and prolonged the survival of stored platelets in vivo posttransfusion with single or combined use. In summary, we discovered that CPT2 acetylation attenuates fatty acid oxidation and exacerbates platelet storage lesion and may serve as a new target for improving platelet storage quality.

Project description:In this study we used the cre-loxP recombinase system. All mice were genetically modified in as much as all mice had exon 4 of the IGF-I gene flanked by loxP sites. In the knockouts, Mx-Cre had also been introduced, which results in inactivation of the IGF-I gene specifically in the liver. RNA from liver, skeletal muscle, heart, fat (retroperitoneal fat) and bone (vertebrae) was extracted from 6 control and 7 mice deficient of liver-derived insulin-like growth factor-I (LI-IGF-I-/- mice) by Tri Reagent (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) and purified using spin columns from Rneasy Total RNA Isolation Kit (Qiagen, Chatsworth, CA, USA). For microarray analysis, the RNA samples were pooled three or two, resulting in three pools per group while for the confirmatory RT-PCR analyses individual mice (n=6-7) were analyzed. For each organ, there were three pooled samples from the mice with deficiency of liver-derived IGF-I and 3 pooled samples from the wildtype mice i.e. intact IGF-I gene. The pooled RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA, labeled, and analyzed by DNA microarray (MG-U74Av2 Array; Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Scanned output files were analyzed using Affymetrix Micro Array Suite version 4.0.1 software (Affymetrix). To allow comparison of gene expression, the gene chips were globally scaled to an average intensity of 500. Each of the three LI-IGF-I-/- chips was compared with the three control chips, generating a total of nine comparison files. Only the genes that were regarded as M-^SchangedM-^T according to the Affymetrix algorithm in four to nine of the comparisons were selected for further analysis. We then calculated an average-fold change for the nine comparisons of the selected genes. For a gene to be regarded as consistently regulated in the LI-IGF-I-/- mice, the average-fold increase or decrease of the nine comparisons was set as at least 1.5 fold in at least 4 of the 5 analyzed organs. Microarray showed that heat shock protein 1A (Hspa1a), heat shock protein 1B (Hspa1b), and connective tissue growth factor (Ctgf) were decreased in all organs that expressed these genes. CCAAT/enhancer protein delta (Cebpd) decreased in 4 of the 5 analyzed organs. The RT-PCR analyses that were performed later confirmed that mRNA levels of Hspa1a, Hspa1b, and Ctgf decreased in LI-IGF-I-/- mice in skeletal muscle tissue while mRNA levels of Cebpd were unchanged.

Project description:ABSTRACT MAGWIRE, MICHAEL MAHLON. Mutations Increasing Drosophila melanogaster Life Span. (Under the direction of Trudy F. C. Mackay.) Better living conditions and advances in medicine have made it possible for humans to live considerably longer than before. This has uncovered many health problems associated with age. By identifying genes involved in the limitation of life span, we may better understand the processes that lead to aging. In model organisms, we can use mutagenesis to discover mutations that increase life span, and hence infer that the wild-type allele limits life span by some means. We have assessed longevity in a collection of 1332 co-isogenic gene-trap P-element insertion lines and determined changes in life span of each insert line relative to the corresponding control line. Significant lines were determined via two different methods of analysis: A 95% confidence interval was established based on deviations of the mutant life spans from the controls and Dunnett’s two tailed t-tests were used to examine differences between mutant and control in each individual block. Based on the 95% confidence interval, 139 inserts displayed an increase in life span and 194 inserts a decrease. Using Dunnett’s, 70 lines increased in life span, while 270 decreased in life span. An additional 48 increased longevity lines were close enough to meeting Dunnett’s criteria to be considered for additional investigation. Combining these two analyses, we chose 83 inserts associated with increased life span for a secondary screen using an additional twelve replicates. 58 of these lines remained significant. We have determined the P-element insertion site for 50 of these lines. Starvation resistance, chill coma recovery time and climbing activity were measured on the lines remaining significant after the the secondary screen to identify pleiotropic effects. A positive correlation was found for males between life span and starvation resistance as well as between life span and chill coma recovery. Females only displayed a correlation between life span and chill coma recovery, which was negative. None of the lines indicated increased fitness for all phenotypes, indicating there may be some type of trade-off. There also appears to be a lot of pleiotropic variation depending on background and sex. Ten of the lines, all with the same parental background, were chosen for a half-diallel cross to identify epistasis between the mutants. There were substantial epistatic interactions between all ten lines. Furthermore, males and females displayed vastly different patterns of epistasis, again indicating major differences in life span regulation between the sexes. Finally, a subset of seven of the lines used in the epistatic study, in addition to the corresponding parental control, were chosen for microarray analysis to look for possible pathways and novel genes involved in increasing life span. 1,996 probe sets were significant at a false discovery rate q-value threshold of q < 0.0001. Tukeys tests were carried out for these probe sets to determine how each of the seven mutant backgrounds differed compared to the control and each other. In addition, each mutant background was compared individually with the control to identify any changes in expression. Gene ontologies were determined for each of the lines to identify over-represented biological functions which would indicate possible longevity pathways. Dozens of pathways were suggested, including several novel pathways. Keywords: Genetic (P-element insertion) modification and comparison to control line
