Sex- and age-dependent genetics of longevity in a heterogeneous mouse population

ABSTRACT: DNA variants that modulate lifespan provide insight into determinants of health, disease, and aging. Through analyses in the UM-HET3 mice of the Interventions Testing Program (ITP), we detected a sex-independent quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 12 and identified sex-specific QTLs, some of which detected only in older mice. Similar relations between life history and longevity were uncovered in mice and humans, underscoring the importance of early access to nutrients and early growth. We identified common, age- and sex-specific genetic effects on gene expression that we integrated with model organism and human data to create a hypothesis-building interactive resource of prioritized longevity and body weight genes. Finally, we validated Hipk1, Ddost, Hspg2, Fgd6, and Pdk1 as conserved longevity genes using C. elegans lifespan experiments.

RNA sequencing of mouse hepatic response to lifespan-extending interventions

Project description:This dataset consists of hepatic gene expression profiles of mice subjected to 8 different lifespan-extending interventions, together with the corresponding age-, sex- and strain-matched littermate controls: caloric restriction (CR), methionine restriction (MR), growth hormone receptor knockout (GHRKO), Snell dwarf mice (Pit1 -/-), rapamycin, acarbose, 17-alpha-estradiol (17aE2) and Protandim. Both sexes and different age groups are presented within dataset. Using this data, we identified general and specific gene expression patterns associated with lifespan extension. We detected a feminization effect associated with growth hormone regulation and diminution of sex-related differences in response to many interventions at transcriptome and metabolome levels. Combining the dataset with publicly available resources, we found that many interventions exhibited similar transcriptome changes, whereas some, including rapamycin, showed distinct patterns. We identified common hepatic signatures of lifespan extension, e.g. upregulation of oxidative phosphorylation and NRF2-regulated enzymes, and found that many perturbed pathways are shared across tissues. Moreover, the response of genes related to glucose metabolism and immune function represented both qualitative and quantitative associations with longevity. Finally, we used the detected longevity signatures to identify new candidates for lifespan extension and built GENtervention, a tool that visualizes associations of gene expression responses with lifespan extension.

Comparison of hepatic gene expression between short-term calorie restricted wild-type and Dgat1 deficient middle-aged female mice

Project description:Leanness is associated with increased lifespan and is linked to favorable metabolic conditions promoting life extension. We show here that deficiency of the lipid synthesis enzyme acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1), which reduces body fat in mice, promotes longevity. Female DGAT1-deficient mice were protected from age-related increases in body fat, non-adipose tissue triglycerides, and markers of inflammation in white adipose tissue. These metabolic changes were accompanied by an increased mean and maximal lifespan of ~25% and ~10%, respectively. The gene expression profile of DGAT1-deficient mice was not highly correlated with calorie restriction of sex and age matched wild-type littermates. Our findings indicate that loss of DGAT1-mediated lipid synthesis results in leanness, protects against age-related metabolic consequences, and thus extends longevity. Liver gene expression profiles between short-term calorie restricted wild-type (WTCR) and Dgat1 deficient (KO) middle-aged (15-16 mo) female mice were compared to determine if calorie restriction and Dgat1 deficiency rely on common regulatory pathways for the promotion of longevity. Both CR and KO were compared to middle-aged wild-type female littermates fed a standard chow diet ad libitum (WTAL).

RNA sequencing of mouse hepatic response to compounds with predicted lifespan-extending effect

Project description:This dataset consists of hepatic gene expression profiles of mice subjected to 4 compounds predicted by Connectivity Map (CMap) using gene signatures identified for known lifespan-extending interventions: ascorbyl-palmitate, KU-0063794, AZD8055 and rilmenidine. Corresponding age-, sex- and strain-matched littermate controls are also presented. Using this data, we confirmed the association between longevity signatures and gene expression response to the predicted compounds in vivo, using the same mouse model as for the identification of gene signatures associated with lifespan extension. This pilot project demonstrated the applicability of such approach for the discovery of new interventions with a desirable effect on gene expression and provided appealing candidates for further longevity studies.

Untangling determinants of health and lifespan

Project description:The impact of chronic caloric restriction (CR) on health and survival in model organisms is complex and its underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Genetic background, sex, degree of CR and diet composition are expected modifiers of survival outcomes of this intervention. A recent study in mice addressed the impact of diet composition and feeding patterns used in nonhuman primates. It was found that, while diet composition alone did not impact longevity, fasting and calories were determinant for increased survival. We use here a combined physiological, multi-omics (transcriptomics-metabolomics), and integrated pathway analyses to gain insight into core and specific pathways associated with liver healthspan and lifespan. Main findings show that liver longevity pathways associated with CR predominantly correspond to detoxification, molecular turnover-repair-maintenance, and energy supply processes. Differential responses on lifespan extension provided by the different feeding strategies unveiled a distinct pattern of longevity pathways that centered around amino acid, fatty acid and nucleic acid metabolisms. Glycine-serine-threonine metabolism was a unique metabolic hub associated with lifespan whereas short-chain fatty acids and essential PUFAs metabolism were unique to healthspan. Nonhuman primate serum metabolomics data essentially recapitulated key features in mice.

Inhibition of S6K lowers age-related inflammation and immunosenescence and increases lifespan via the endolysosomal system

Project description:The nutrient-sensing Target of Rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) is an evolutionarily conserved regulator of longevity. S6 kinase (S6K) is an essential downstream mediator for the effect of TORC1 on longevity. However, mechanistic insights on how TORC1-S6K signalling promotes lifespan and healthspan are still limited. Here we show that activity of S6K in the Drosophila fat body is essential for rapamycin-mediated longevity. Fat-body-specific activation of S6K blocked lifespan extension upon rapamycin feeding and induced accumulation of multilamellar lysosomal enlargements. Besides, fat body-specific S6K knockdown extended lifespan in files. We performed proteomics for Drosophila fat body to explore the fat body-specific regulation of protein expression by two separate datasets: fat body-specific S6K activation (Lsp2GS>S6KCA) with rapamycin treatment; and fat body-specific S6K inhibition (Lsp2GS>S6KRNAi). To assess if the age-prolonging mechanisms of TORC1-S6K signalling are conserved between flies and mammals, we assessed the impact of rapamycin treatment in the proteome of liver from C3B6F1 mice (F1 hybrids of C3H/HeOuJ females and C57Bl/6N males).

Screening bioactive food compounds in honey bees suggests curcumin blocks alcohol-induced damage to longevity and DNA methylation

Project description:Various bioactive food compounds may confer health and longevity benefits, possibly through altering or preserving the human epigenome. While bioactive food compounds are widely being marketed as ‘improving health and longevity’ by counteracting harmful effects of poor nutrition and lifestyle, claimed effects are often not adequately documented. Using the honey bee (Apis mellifera) as a model species, we here employed a multi-step screening approach to investigate seven compounds for effects on lifespan and DNA methylation using ELISA and whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). A positive longevity effect was detected for valproic acid, isovaleric acid, and cyanocobalamin. For curcumin, we found that lifespan shortening caused by ethanol intake, was restored when curcumin and ethanol were co-administered. Furthermore, we identified region specific DNA methylation changes as a result of ethanol intake. Ethanol specific changes in DNA methylation were fully or partially blocked in honey bees receiving ethanol and curcumin together. Ethanol-affected and curcumin-blocked differentially methylated regions covered genes involved in fertility, temperature regulation and tubulin transport. Our results demonstrate fundamental negative effects of low dose ethanol consumption on lifespan and associated DNA methylation changes and present a proof-of-principle on how longevity and DNA methylation changes can be negated by the bioactive food component curcumin. Our findings provide a fundament for further studies of curcumin in mice and humans and offer an avenue to explore regarding possible prevention of health issues related to alcohol consumption.

H3K9me2 protects lifespan against the transgenerational burden of germline transcription in C. elegans

Project description:Chromatin state influences lifespan and may allow for the epigenetic inheritance of this complex trait. At sites of active transcription, the COMPASS complex methylates histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me). In Caenorhabditis elegans, reductions in COMPASS extend lifespan, and wild-type descendants of COMPASS mutants inherit longevity for four generations. Here we show that the longevity of COMPASS mutants is itself a transgenerational trait caused by gradual changes in the repressive chromatin factor H3K9me2. H3K9me2 is required for longevity in COMPASS mutants and can confer longevity when increased in other chromatin modifier mutants. H3K9me2 levels also correlate with a transgenerational decline in wild-type lifespan after freezing or starvation. We propose that germline transcription-coupled H3K4me encroaches on H3K9me2 to limit lifespan. Loss of COMPASS complex alleviates the burden of H3K4me and therefore extends lifespan. This study suggests a causal role for a single heterochromatin factor in the establishment and inheritance of longevity.

Comparing the effects of low protein, high carbohydrate diets and caloric restriction on brain aging in mice.

Project description:Calorie restriction (CR) increases lifespan and improves brain health in mice. Ad libitum low protein, high carbohydrate (LPHC) diets also extend lifespan, but it is not known whether they are beneficial for brain health. We compared hippocampus biology and memory in mice subjected to 20% CR or provided ad libitum access to one of three LPHC diets, or to a control diet. At age 15 months, patterns of RNA expression in the hippocampus were similar between CR and LPHC diets for genes associated with longevity, cytokines and dendrite morphogenesis. Nutrient sensing proteins including SIRT1, mTOR and PGC1α were also influenced by diet, however the effects varied by sex. CR and LPHC diets were associated with increased dendritic spines in dentate gyrus neurons. CR and LPHC diets led to modest improvements in the Barnes Maze and Novel Object Recognition. LPHC diets recapitulate some of the benefits of CR on brain aging.
