Accumulating DNA damage and insufficient DNA repair in senescent cells underlie persistent DNA damage signaling

ABSTRACT: Senescent cells are a major cause of organismal aging and a key target for anti-aging therapies. Persistent DNA damage signaling is a primary driver of the induction and maintenance of cellular senescence. However, many DNA damaging stimuli that induce senescence, such as irradiation or transient exposure to genotoxic drugs, are transient. The mechanisms underlying persistent damage signaling in senescent cells, and why senescent cells fail to repair damaged DNA, remain unknown. Here, we were able to assess the mechanisms underlying persistence of DNA damage and senescence maintenance by designing a precisely controllable senescence system that does not require potent stressors to induce senescence. We demonstrate that sustained mTORC1 signaling in senescent cells causes gradually accumulating DNA damage and an inflammatory response that maintains cell-cycle arrest. Markedly, activation of E2F transcription, which promotes expression of DNA repair proteins, can reverse accumulated DNA damage. Thus, persistent DNA damage signaling arises in senescent cells by uncoupling of mTORC1 and E2F signaling, whereby prolonged mTORC1 activity causes gradually increasing DNA damage that cannot be sufficiently repaired without induction of protective E2F target genes.

A novel histone variant H2A.J accumulates in senescent human cell with persistent DNA damage and promote inflammatory gene expression

Project description:The senescence of mammalian cells is characterized by a proliferative arrest in response to stress and the expression of an inflammatory phenotype. We discovered that H2A.J, a poorly studied H2A variant found only in mammals, accumulates in human fibroblasts in senescence with persistent DNA damage. Knock-down of H2A.J interfered with the derepression of a set of inflammatory genes that contribute to the senescent-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and over-expression of H2A.J increased the expression of some of these genes in proliferating cells. H2A.J accumulation may thus promote the signaling of senescent cells to the immune system. 41 samples analysed

Myeloma cancer cells can corrupt mesenchymal stromal senescent cells and impair their anti-tumor activity

Project description:Senescent cells secrete many molecules, which contribute to the prevention of cancer progression. We induced MSC senescence by oxidative stress, DNA damage, and replicative exhaustion. The first two are considered inducers of acute senescence while extensive proliferation triggers replicative senescence also named chronic senescence. We cultivated cancer cells in the presence of acute and chronic senescent MSC conditioned media and evaluated proliferation, DNA damage, apoptosis and senescence.

Expression data from Lund Human Mesencephalic cells (LUHMES) exposed to acute and persistent oxidative DNA damage

Project description:Oxidative DNA damage in neurons activates a DNA damage response (DDR) to promote repair. Under a chronic oxidative environment these processes may be altered and promote accumulation of unrepaired DNA damage and continued activation of a DDR, leading to apoptosis or senescence activation. Accumulation of oxidative DNA damage are features of brain ageing and neurodegeneration but the effects of persistent DNA damage in neurons are not well characterised. We developed a model of persistent oxidative DNA damage in human neurons in vitro (LUHMES) by exposing them to a sub-lethal concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) following a "single stress" and “double stress” protocols. We characterised the neuronal transcriptome under these circumstances using microarray analysis.

RNA-Seq in senescent cells with restored levels of TRF2

Project description:Cellular senescence is accompanied by profound changes in telomere and heterochromatin structure that contribute to ageing. Telomere shortening is a key driver of replicative senescence that activate DNA damage response signaling ending on a p53-dependent downregulation of the shelterin subunit TRF2. Restoring the levels of TRF2 in pre-senescent cells leads to delay entry into senescent and restoration of constitutive heterochromatin structure and damage. Here we set to determine whether the restoration of TRF2 levels change the senescent program by doing RNA-sequencing of senescent cells transduced with a TRF2-expressing lentivirus or an empty lentivirus control.

Parenchymal damage and myeloid inflammation link the Rag GTPase – mTORC1 axis to mammalian aging [neutrophils]

Project description:The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) controls cellular anabolism in response to nutrient sufficiency and growth factor signaling, and genetic and pharmacological inhibition of mTORC1 extends longevity across eukaryotes. Up to date, mouse models to analyze the mechanisms of aging governed by mTORC1 has been limited by detrimental pleiotropic consequences of genetically-increased mTORC1 activity in mice. RragcS74N/+, RragcS74C/+ and RragcT89N/+ knock-in mice endogenously express active mutant variants of RagC, a GTPase that signaling nutrient sufficiency to mTORC1. Rragcmutant/+ mice show an only moderate increase in nutrient signaling to mTORC1, and after one year of life exhibit multiple features of a premature aging phenotype that include prominent senescence in peripheral organs, parenchymal expression of inflammatory and chemo-attractant molecules, increased myeloid inflammation and extensive features of inflammaging. In vivo transplantation and ex vivo functional experiments with bone marrow-derived cells show that myeloid cells are abnormally activated by parenchymal signals evoked from Rragcmut/+ organs, to where myeloid cells extravasate to inflict additional inflammatory damage. Therapeutic suppression of myeloid inflammation in old Rragcmut/+ attenuates features of premature aging and extends longevity. We provide the first genetic link of elevated nutrient – mTORC1 activity and premature aging in mammals, and provide support for a two-component model in which increased nutrient signaling drives parenchymal damage and myeloid inflammation precipitates organ deterioration and accelerated aging.

Microarray analysis of TNFα indcued senescence in Human umbilical vein endothelial cells

Project description:Cellular senescence is a key cell-fate program that leads to an essentially irreversible proliferative arrest in potentially damaged cells. Cytokine production and signaling play a significant role in senescence. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα), an important pro-inflammatory cytokine secreted by some senescent cells, can induce senescence in mouse and human cells. However, downstream signaling pathways and key regulatory genes linking inflammation to senescence are not fully characterized. Using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as a model, we show TNFα induces permanent growth arrest and increased senescence markers such as p21, p16, and senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal), accompanied by persistent DNA damage and ROS. By gene expression profiling and pathway analysis, we identify the crucial involvement of inflammatory networks, an interferon signature, and persistent activation of the Janus kinase (JAK) /signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway in TNFα-mediated senescence. TNFα initiates a STAT-dependent autocrine loop leading to sustained inflammation, DNA damage, and expression of interferon response genes to lock cells into senescence. Further, we show STAT1/3 activation is necessary for cytokine and ROS production during TNFα-induced senescence. However, inhibition of STAT1/3 did not rescue cells from TNFα-mediated senescence. Rather, blockade of STAT activation accelerated senescence, suppressed genes that control the cell cycle, and modulated TNFα-induced senescence. Our findings suggest a positive feedback mechanism via a STAT pathway that sustains cytokine production and reveal a reciprocal regulatory role of JAK/STAT in TNFα-mediated senescence.
