Project description:Mammalian aging is characterized by the progressive loss of tissue integrity and function manifesting in ill health and increased risk for developing multiple chronic conditions. Accumulation of senescent cells in aging tissues partly contributes to this decline as targeted depletion of senescent cells in vivo ameliorates many age-related phenotypes. However, the fundamental molecular mechanisms responsible for the decline of cellular health and fitness during senescence and aging are largely unknown. In this study, we investigated whether chromatin-mediated loss of transcriptional fidelity, known to contribute to fitness and survival in yeast and worms, also occurs during human cellular senescence and mouse aging. Our findings reveal that aberrant transcription initiation inside genes is widespread in senescence and aging. It co-occurs with changes in the chromatin landscape and formation of non-canonical transcription start sites. Interventions that alter spurious transcripts have dramatic consequences on cellular health primarily affecting intracellular signal transduction pathways. We propose that spurious transcription is a conserved hallmark of aging that promotes a noisy transcriptome and a degradation of coherent transcriptional networks.

Project description:Cellular senescence disables the proliferation of damaged cells and it is relevant for cancer and aging. Here, we show that cellular senescence occurs during mammalian embryonic development. Specifically, we have focused on the mouse regressing mesonephros and the endolymphatic sac of the inner ear. Senescence is characterized by SAM-NM-2G activity, heterochromatinization, and proliferative arrest. Mechanistically, developmentally-programmed senescence at the mesonephros and endolymphatic sac is strictly dependent on p21, but independent of DNA damage, p53 or other cell cycle inhibitors, and it is regulated by the TGFM-NM-2/SMAD and PI3K/FOXO pathways. Developmentally-programmed senescence is followed by macrophage infiltration and clearance of senescent cells. Abrogation of senescence by p21 deletion is only partially compensated by apoptosis and originates detectable developmental abnormalities. Importantly, high levels of p21 are also associated to the regressing mesonephros and endolymphatic sac in human embryos. These findings place cellular senescence as a relevant morphogenic process during embryonic development. We microdissected mesonephric tubules from senescent (WT) and non-senescent (p21-null) embryos to get information about this new senescence that occurs during embryogenesis.

Project description:Decline in tissue NAD levels during aging has been linked to aging-associated diseases, such as age-related metabolic disease, physical decline, and Alzheimers disease. However, the mechanism for aging-associated NAD decline remains unclear. Here we report that pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages, but not naive or M2 macrophages, highly express the NAD consuming enzyme CD38 and have enhanced CD38-dependent NADase activity. Furthermore, we show that aging is associated with enhanced inflammation due to increased senescent cells, and the accumulation of CD38 positive M1 macrophages in visceral white adipose tissue. We also find that inflammatory cytokines found in the supernatant from senescent cells (Senescence associated secretory proteins, SASP) induces macrophages to proliferate and express CD38. As senescent cells progressively accumulate in adipose tissue during aging, these results highlight a new causal link between visceral tissue senescence and tissue NAD decline during aging and may present a novel therapeutic opportunity to maintain NAD levels during aging.

Project description:Aging is marked by a progressive decline in physiological function, leading to an increased susceptibility to age-related diseases and cancer. On the cellular level, aging correlates with an accumulation of senescent cells, which play a dual role: they are critical for tissue homeostasis, yet their over-accumulation may drive pathological aging. We recently revealed that senescent cells could overexpress immunosuppressive molecules like the ganglioside GD3 at their cell surface to evade from immune surveillance and to facilitate their tolerogenicity. We investigate which cells expressed GD3 and whether this ganglioside could be considered as a new marker associated to senescence in a model of senescence associated disease: Bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis.

Project description:Aging is a major risk factor for impaired cardiovascular health. The aging myocardium is characterized by microcirculatory and diastolic dysfunction and increased susceptibility to arrhythmias. Nerves align with vessels during development. However, the impact of aging on the cardiac neuro-vascular interface is entirely unknown. Here, we report that aging reduces nerve density specifically in the left ventricle and dysregulates vascular-derived neuro-regulatory genes. Aging leads to a down-regulation of miR-145 and de-repression of the neuro-repulsive factor Semaphorin-3A. miR-145 deletion, which increased Sema3a expression, or endothelial Sema3a overexpression reduced axon density, thus mimicking the observed aged heart phenotype. Removal of senescent cells, which accumulated with chronological age in parallel to the decline in nerve density, rescued age-induced denervation, reduced Sema3a expression, preserved heart rate variability and reduced electrical instability. These data suggest that senescence-associated regulation of neuro-regulatory genes is associated with reduced nerve density and, thereby, contributes to age-associated cardiac dysfunction.

Project description:Proteostasis collapse, the diminished ability to maintain protein homeostasis, has been established as a hallmark of nematode aging. However, whether proteostasis collapse occurs in humans has remained unclear. Here, we demonstrate that proteostasis decline is intrinsic to human senescence. Using transcriptome-wide characterization of gene expression, splicing, and translation, we found a significant deterioration in the transcriptional activation of the heat shock response in stressed senescent cells. Furthermore, phosphorylated HSF1 nuclear localization and distribution were impaired in senescence. Interestingly, alternative splicing regulation was also dampened. Surprisingly, we found a decoupling between different unfolded protein response (UPR) branches in stressed senescent cells. While young cells initiated UPR-related translational and transcriptional regulatory responses, senescent cells showed enhanced translational regulation and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress sensing; however, they were unable to trigger UPR-related transcriptional responses. This was accompanied by diminished ATF6 nuclear localization in stressed senescent cells. Finally, we found that proteasome function was impaired following heat stress in senescent cells, and did not recover upon return to normal temperature. Together, our data unraveled a deterioration in the ability to mount dynamic stress transcriptional programs upon human senescence with broad implications on proteostasis control and connected proteostasis decline to human aging.
