Project description:Activation of Sirt1, the mammalian homolog of an NAD+-dependent deacetylase known to modulate lifespan in lower organisms, is thought to hold promise as a strategy for delaying aging in mammals. SRT1720, a novel compound developed as a specific and potent activator of Sirt1, has shown promising effects to glucose homeostasis in short-term studies of rats and mice. Here we show SRT1720 extends both mean and maximum lifespan of mice fed a high-fat diet and has concrete benefits to health including reduced liver steatosis and increased insulin sensitivity and locomotor activity. Gene expression profiles and markers of inflammation and apoptosis were also restored to levels more reflective of standard diet controls. Furthermore, the benefits incurred by SRT1720 occurred in the absence of any observable toxicity. The current findings provide hope that safe and effective treatments may be developed to mitigate age-related diseases and enhance lifespan in humans. Male C57BL/6J mice obtained at 12 weeks of age were maintained on a standard purified mouse diet (AIN-93G) until 56 weeks of age prior to the start of the experiment. Beginning at 56 weeks of age, the SD group was fed a standard AIN-93G diet for the duration of the study. Three separate groups were placed on a high-fat diet (HFD) (AIN-93G modified by the addition of hydrogenated coconut oil to provide 60% of calories from fat) or HFD + 30mg/kg body weight SRT1720 (HFD-L) or 100mg/kg body weight SRT1720 (HFD-H) and remained on those diets throughout the study. All mice were fed ad libitum. Food intake and body weight were measured biweekly for the duration of the study.

Project description:The prevention or delay of the onset of age-related diseases prolongs survival and improves quality of life while reducing the burden on the health care system. Activation of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), an NAD+ deacetylase, improves metabolism and confers protection against physiological and cognitive disturbances in old age. SRT1720 is a specific SIRT1 activator that has health and lifespan benefits in adult mice fed a highfat diet. We found extension in lifespan, delayed onset of age-related metabolic diseases, and improved general health in mice fed a standard diet after SRT1720 supplementation. Inhibition of pro-inflammatory gene expression both in the liver and muscle of SRT1720-treated animals was noted. SRT1720 lowered phosphorylation of NF-κB pathway regulators in vitro only when SIRT1 was functionally present. Combined with our previous work, the current study further supports the beneficial effects of SRT1720 on health across the lifespan in mice.

Combined with our previous work, the current study further supports the beneficial effects of SRT1720 on health across the lifespan in mice. Groups of 28 week old male C57BL/6J mice were maintained on ad libitum AIN-93G SD diet, or an ad libitum AIN-93G diet supplemented with SRT1720 for the rest of their lives. SRT1720 was added at a dose of 1.33 g drug per kg of chow, formulated to provide daily doses of approximately 100 mg drug per kg bodyweight to the mice. 5 mice from each group were selected and RNA was extracted from both muscle and liver tissue using 1.0mm glass beads in a Precellys 24 Tissue Homogenizer and Qiagen RNeasy Mini Kits for Fibrous Tissue according to manufacturer's specifications. Quality and quantity of the total RNA was checked with the Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer using RNA 6000 Nano chips. RNA samples were labeled using the Illumina TotalPrep RNA Amplification Kit. In short, 0.5ug of total RNA was first converted into single-stranded cDNA with reverse transcriptase using an oligo-dT primer containing the T7 RNA polymerase promoter site and then copied to produce double-stranded cDNA molecules. The double stranded cDNA was cleaned and concentrated with the supplied columns and used in an overnight in-vitro transcription reaction where single-stranded RNA (cRNA) was generated and labeled by incorporation of biotin-16-UTP. Arrays were hybridized using a total of 0.75ug of biotin-labeled cRNA at 58 degrees C for 16 hours to Illumina's Sentrix MouseRef-8 v2 Expression BeadChips. Each BeadChip has ~24,000 well-annotated RefSeq transcripts with approximately 30-fold redundancy. The arrays were washed, blocked and the biotin labeled cRNA was detected by staining with streptavidin-Cy3. Arrays were scanned at a resolution of 0.8um using the Beadstation 500 X from Illumina and the data was extracted using the Illumina GenomeStudio software(v1.6.0). Any spots at or below the background were filtered out using an Illumina detection p value of 0.02 and above. The natural log of all remaining scores were used to find the avg and std of each array and the z-score normalization was calculated and presented below. Z-score = (raw value - avg)/std.

Project description:Increased expression of SIRT1 extends the lifespan of lower organisms and delays the onset of age-related diseases in mammals. Here, we show that SRT2104, a synthetic small molecule activator of SIRT1, extends both mean and maximal lifespan of mice fed a standard diet. This is accompanied by improvements in health, including enhanced motor coordination, performance, bone mineral density and insulin sensitivity associated with higher mitochondrial content and decreased inflammation. Short-term SRT2104 treatment preserves bone and muscle mass in an experimental model of atrophy. These results demonstrate it is possible to design a small molecule that can slow aging and delay multiple age-related diseases in mammals, supporting the therapeutic potential of SIRT1 activators in humans.

Project description:Abundant high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HMW-HA) contributes to cancer resistance and possibly longevity of the longest-lived rodent, the naked mole-rat1,2. To study whether the benefits of increased HMW-HA could be transferred to other animal species, we generated a transgenic mouse overexpressing naked mole-rat hyaluronic acid synthase 2 gene (nmrHAS2). nmrHAS2 mice showed increase in hyaluronan levels in several tissues, and lower incidence of spontaneous and induced cancer, extended lifespan and improved healthspan. The transcriptome signature of nmrHAS2 mice shifted towards that of longer-lived species. The most striking change observed in nmrHAS2 mice was attenuated inflammation across multiple tissues. HMW-HA reduced inflammation via several pathways including direct immunoregulatory effect on immune cells, protection from oxidative stress, and improved gut barrier function during aging. These findings demonstrate that the longevity mechanism that evolved in the naked mole-rat can be exploited to other species, and open new avenues for using HMW-HA to improve lifespan and healthspan

Project description:Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is a disease characterized by genomic instability and severe neurodegeneration. It is caused by mutation in Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated gene (ATM) which encodes ATM, a key player in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. While many major symptoms of A-T (including hypersensitivity to ionizing radiation) are readily explained by its deficiency in repair of DSBs, the causes for the devastating cerebellar degeneration are still elusive. Here we report that in A-T, persistent unrepaired DNA damage signals from the nucleus to mitochondria (NM signaling) causing mitochondrial dysfunction leading to neurodegeneration. We find that depletion of NAD+ in A-T across species is likely due to persistent PARylation as inhibition of PARP1 restores NAD+levels.. NAD+ depletion affects the NAD+/SIRT1-PGC1α axis causing accumulation of damaged mitochondria through inhibition of mitophagy. Restoration of NAD+/SIRT1 activity through PARP1 inhibition, NAD+ supplementation or SIRT1 activation rescued the pathological and behavioral defects in A-T, suggesting a conserved role of the NAD+/SIRT1 pathway in inhibiting disease pathology. Notably, increasing the NAD+ levels extends lifespan and rescues A-T-specific behavioral defects in both C. elegans and mouse models of A-T. This is through induction of PINK1-DCT1-regulated mitophagy and DNA-PKcs-associated NHEJ DNA repair. Our results underscore the unified role of SIRT1 (Sir2.1) in mitochondrial health and highlight how Sir2.1 not only regulates mitochondrial biogenesis, but also induces PINK1-DCT1-dependent mitophagy. Our data support a model where by the two major theories on aging, DNA damage accumulation and mitochondrial dysfunction, conspire to promote neurodegeneration in A-T animal models and suggest that therapeutic interventions are possible in A-T and other untreatable DNA repair-deficient disorders.

Project description:The SIRT1 deacetylase is one of the best-studied potential mediators of some of the anti-aging effects of calorie restriction (CR); but its role in CR-dependent lifespan extension has not been demonstrated. We previously found that mice lacking both copies of SIRT1 displayed a shorter median lifespan than wild type mice on an ad libitum diet. Here we report that median lifespan extension in CR heterozygote SIRT1+/- mice was identical (51%) to that observed in wild type mice but SIRT1+/- mice displayed a higher frequency of some certain pathologies. Although larger studies in different genetic backgrounds are necessary , these results provide strong initial evidence for the requirement of SIRT1 for the anti-aging effects of CR, but suggest that its high expression is not required for CR-induced lifespan extension. Key words: SIRT1, caloric restriction, lifespan, anti-aging 2-5 month old male mice of 3 different genotypes (SIRT1+/+, SIRT1+/-, and SIRT1-/-) that had normal, reduced or no expression of SIRT1 were treated with either a 40% caloric restricted diet (CR) or an ad libitum diet (AL). 2-4 replicates of each experimental condition were used in the analysis.
