Genome-wide occupancy of the CEH-60 and UNC-62 Transcription Factors in Caenorhabditis elegans

ABSTRACT: Animals integrate metabolic, developmental, and environmental information before committing key resources to reproduction. In C. elegans, adult animals reallocate key fat stores from intestinal cells to the germline via lipoproteins to promote reproduction. I identified the evolutionarily conserved homeodomain transcription factor CEH-60/PBX as a potent regulator of lipid homeostasis, longevity, and stress response pathways. To gain a comprehensive view of CEH-60 transcriptional activity, I profiled the transcriptomes of ceh-60 mutants by mRNA-Seq and identified genome-wide CEH-60 binding sites by ChIP-Seq. These approaches revealed that several homeostatic pathways are directly controlled by the CEH-60 transcription factor. CEH-60 functions cooperatively with UNC-62/MEIS in the intestine to directly activate lipoprotein genes while simultaneously repressing genes involved in stress responses, including the innate immune and oxidative stress responses. Thus in wild-type animals, CEH-60 serves as a molecular switch that promotes reproduction (i.e., lipoproteins) while repressing stress response and longevity pathways. This study identifies a new key regulator of fat metabolism, longevity, and stress response pathways during normal C. elegans development.

CEH-60/PBX regulates vitellogenesis and cuticle formation through interaction with UNC-62/MEIS in Caenorhabditis elegans

Project description:The onset of sexual maturity involves dramatic changes in physiology and gene expression in many animals. A textbook example is the production of enormous amounts of yolk proteins destined for the nascent oocytes, termed vitellogenesis. We previously identified the rapidly evolving PBC-class Hox-cofactor CEH-60/PBX as necessary for abundant vit transcription in C. elegans. Differential proteomics data shows that all vitellogenin proteins are indeed drastically downregulated in ceh-60 mutant animals and suggest an additional role for CEH-60’s involvement cuticle structure, innate immunity and stress response.

Gene Expression Profiling Reveals Molecular Patterns Underlying the Lifespan-Extending Effect of Tyrosol in Caenorhabditis elegans

Project description:We have previously reported that tyrosol (TYR), one of the main phenols in extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), promotes lifespan extension in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, also inducing a stronger resistance to thermal and oxidative stress in this animal model. Although the influence of several longevity-related genes in these effects has been reported by our group, we decided to perform a whole genome DNA-microarray approach in order to identify other genes and molecular pathways further involved in TYR effects on C. elegans longevity. Microarray analysis identified 208 differentially expressed genes (206 overexpressed and 2 underexpressed) when comparing TYR-treated nematodes with non-treated controls. Many of these genes seem linked to processes such as regulation of growth, transcription, reproduction, lipid metabolism and body morphogenesis. Data obtained by microarray was validated by qRT-PCR analysis of selected genes. Our results confirm that several important cellular mechanisms related to longevity are influenced by TYR treatment in this animal model. Moreover, we detected an interesting overlap between the expression pattern elicited by TYR and those induced by other dietary polyphenols known to extend lifespan in C. elegans, such as quercetin and tannic acid.
