Project description:We report global transcriptional profiles of epidermal basal cells from plantar skin of control mice, high fat diet-fed (HFD) mice and aged mice. By RNA-sequencing of FACS-isolated interfollicular epidermal (IFE) basal cells, we revealed that calcium signal-associated genes, which regulate differentiatin of keratinocytes,were enriched in the plantar skin of HFD and aged mice.

Project description:Skin aging is characterized by structural and functional changes that lead to slower wound healing and higher rate of infections, which contribute to age-associated frailty. This likely depends on synergy between alterations in the local microenvironment and stem cell–intrinsic changes, underscored by pro-inflammatory microenvironments that drive pleotropic changes. To date, little is known about the precise nature and origin of the proposed age-associated inflammatory cues, or how they affect different tissue resident cell types. Based on deep single-cell RNA-sequencing of the entire dermal compartment, we now provide a comprehensive understanding of the age-associated changes in all skin cell types. We show a previously unreported skew towards an IL-17–expressing phenotype of Th cells, γδ T cells and innate lymphoid cells in aged skin. Aberrant IL-17 signaling is common to many autoimmune (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis) and chronic inflammatory diseases. Importantly, in vivo blockade of IL-17–triggered signaling during the aging process reduces the pro-inflammatory state by affecting immune and non-immune skin cells of both dermis and epidermis. Strikingly, IL-17 neutralization significantly delays the appearance of age-related traits, such as decreased epidermal thickness, increased cornified layer thickness and ameliorated hair follicle stem cell activation and hair shaft regeneration. Our results indicate that the aged skin shows chronic and persistent signs of inflammation, and that age-associated increased IL-17 signaling could be targeted as a strategy to prevent age-associated skin ailments in elderly.

Project description:Hematopoietic aging is associated with decreased hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal capacity and increased risk for myelodysplasia and leukemia. Deficient DNA repair contributes to the decline in HSC self-renewal capacity during aging and it remains unclear whether extrinsic signals can rejuvenate aged HSCs. Here, we demonstrate that augmentation of non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) DNA repair in aged HSCs via treatment with epidermal growth factor (EGF) rejuvenates HSC function. Seven day culture of BM CD34-ckit+sca-1+lin- (34-KSL) HSCs from aged C57BL/6 mice with EGF suppressed myeloid skewing and increased production of multipotent CFU-granulocyte, erythroid, monocyte and megakaryocyte (CFU-GEMM) colonies. Aged, EGF-treated HSCs displayed increased donor multilineage engraftment in primary competitively transplanted mice and in secondary mice compared to mice transplanted with aged, control HSCs. Donor cell engraftment within the bone marrow (BM) KSL and SLAM+KSL HSC population was > 2-fold increased in mice transplanted with aged, EGF-treated HSCs. Systemic administration of EGF to aged mice for 6 weeks also increased long term – HSC self-renewal capacity as measured by increased donor bone marrow (BM) competitive repopulation in primary and secondary transplanted mice. Conversely, deletion of EGFR in Scl/Tal1+ hematopoietic cells was associated with increased myeloid skewing and depletion of LT-HSCs in middle aged mice. Mechanistically, EGF treatment decreased DNA damage in aged HSCs through activation of DNA PK-cs, Artemis and NHEJ repair. Inhibition of DNA PK-cs blocked EGF-mediated restoration of multipotent differentiation and suppression of myeloid skewing in aged HSCs, suggesting that the restoration of hematopoietic potential in aged HSCs is dependent on EGF-mediated activation of DNA PK-cs. EGF treatment also converted the transcriptome of aged HSCs from enrichment for genes involved in cell death and survival to genes involved in HSC generation and identity. These data suggest that extrinsic activation of EGFR signaling can restore key functional capacities in aged HSCs.

Project description:Purpose: Compare the transcriptome of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) that were aged in old and young niches Methods: barcoded GFP+ HSCs were FACS-sorted from a) three recipient mice 15 months post transplantation, and b) six serial transplantation recipient mice 5 months after the 8th transplantation, then subjected to processed using the Chromium Single-cell 3′ v2 Library Kit (10× Genomics, Pleasanton, CA) following the manufacturer’s instructions Results: we obtained transcriptomes of about 12k HSCs aged in young niche, and about 10k HSCs aged in old niche, with the average sequencing depth at close to 50k reads per cell Conclusions: we identified striking differences in gene expression profiles 1) between HSCs aged in young niches from mice with early aging and from mice with delayed aging, and 2) between HSCs aged in old niches and young niches when mice exhibited hematopoietic aging phenotype

Project description:Several features differentiate aged cells from young cells, many of which are due to changes in gene expression during the aging process. The mechanisms of altered gene expression in aging cells remain incompletely understood, and we hypothesized that long non-coding (lnc) RNAs mediate at least some of these changes. To determine candidate lncRNAs which are associated with aging process, we screened for alterations in lncRNA expression with aging in skin fibroblasts. Twenty-eight lncRNAs were found to be expressed more than 2-fold in aged fibroblasts, and thirty-five lncRNAs expressed less than 0.5-fold.

Project description:MicroRNAs have been reported to be involved in the regulation of cellular and organismal aging. However, little is known about the role of microRNAs in cardiac aging. We used microarrays to examine microRNA profiles in the hearts from young (8 week-old) and middle-aged (15 month-old) male mice.
