Gene expression analysis after RNAi treatment of different isoforms of vab-3 in C.elegans

ABSTRACT: Progredient accumulation of body fat occurs in diverse species with increasing age, and is linked to reduced longevity in humans. Independently, changes in the relative expression of genetic isoforms have recently been associated with aging, while the functional significance of isoform usage in longevity and healthy aging remains to be elucidated. We here find that modulation of the evolutionarily conserved splicing factor skp-1 improves physical fitness and lifespan in adult C. elegans. By opposing usage of the corresponding promoters, this factor modulates the expression of different isoforms of nematodal vab-3, an orthologue of the endocrine transcription factor Pax6 in mammals. Specifically, preferential usage of the short vab-3c isoform is functionally epistatic to skp-1, and promotes expression of the peroxisomal acox-1.2 gene. Increasing ACOX1 activates AMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK) to promote healthspan in a redox-dependent manner, but also protects from both lipotoxicity as well as organismal triglyceride accumulation. Accordingly, in human adipose tissue expression of SNW1, the human orthologue of skp-1, is positively correlated with age, and inversely correlated with ACOX1 expression. Moreover, increased ACOX1 expression correlates with decreased adipose tissue mass and improved glucose tolerance in BXD mice. Taken together, these findings indicate that ACOX1 may serve as promising therapeutic targets for ameliorating type 2 diabetes and obesity in an aging population.

daf-16/FoxO isoform-specific deletion mutants

Project description:FoxO transcription factors promote longevity across taxa. How they do so is poorly understood. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the A- and F-isoforms of the FoxO transcription factor DAF-16 extend life span in the context of reduced DAF-2 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGFR) signaling. To elucidate the mechanistic basis for DAF-16/FoxO-dependent life span extension, we performed an integrative analysis of isoform-specific daf-16/FoxO mutants. In contrast to previous studies suggesting that DAF-16F plays a more prominent role in life span control than DAF-16A, isoform-specific daf-16/FoxO mutant phenotypes and whole transcriptome profiling revealed a predominant role for DAF-16A over DAF-16F in life span control, stress resistance, and target gene regulation. Integration of these data sets enabled the prioritization of a subset of 92 DAF-16/FoxO target genes for functional interrogation. Among 29 genes tested, two DAF-16A-specific target genes significantly influenced longevity. Our discovery of new longevity genes underscores the efficacy of our integrative strategy while providing a general framework for identifying specific downstream gene regulatory events that contribute substantially to transcription factor functions. As FoxO transcription factors have conserved functions in promoting longevity and may be dysregulated in aging-related diseases, these findings promise to illuminate fundamental principles underlying aging in animals. Whole-transcriptome profiling of daf-16/FoxO isoform-specific deletion mutants in the long-lived daf-2(e1370) background. Included are daf-16 wild-type, daf-16 null mutation, daf-16a/f mutation, two independent daf-16a mutations, and daf-16f mutation. N2 wild-type controls are also included.

SNW1 is required for sister chromatid cohesion

Project description:Although splicing is essential for the expression of most eukaryotic genes, inactivation of splicing factors causes specific defects in mitosis. The molecular cause of this defect is unknown. Here we show that the spliceosome subunits SNW1 and PRPF8 are essential for sister chromatid cohesion in human cells. A transcriptome-wide analysis revealed that SNW1 or PRPF8 depletion affects the splicing of specific introns in a subset of pre-mRNAs, including pre-mRNAs encoding the cohesion protein sororin and the APC/C subunit APC2. SNW1 depletion causes cohesion defects predominantly by reducing sororin levels, which causes destabilisation of cohesin on DNA. SNW1 depletion also reduces APC/C activity and contributes to cohesion defects indirectly by delaying mitosis and causing ‘cohesion fatigue’. Simultaneous expression of sororin and APC2 from intron-less cDNAs restores cohesion in SNW1 depleted cells. These results indicate that the spliceosome is required for mitosis because it enables expression of genes essential for cohesion. Our transcriptome-wide identification of retained introns in SNW1 and PRPF8 depleted cells may help to understand the aetiology of diseases associated with splicing defects, such as retinosa pigmentosum and cancer.

SKP-SC-EVs-derived miRNA-30a-5p promote angiogenesis in peripheral nerve regeneration by targeting Lif and ANGPT2

Project description:Ischemia and hypoxia caused by vascular injury aggravate nerve injury. The extracellular vesicles from skin precursor-derived Schwann cells (SKP-SC-EVs) have proven to be beneficial to the regeneration of peripheral nerve injury, but whether SKP-SC-EVs can repair injured peripheral nerves by promoting angiogenesis remains unclear. Here, we found that SKP-SC-EVs enhanced the angiogenesis, which were verified by the transparency of tissue engineered nerve graft (TENG) and ultrasonic blood flow imaging. In vitro we verified that SKP-SC-EVs promote the proliferation, migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), which were traditionally used for the evaluating angiogenesis capacity. Furthermore, the expression pattern of microRNA (miRNA) in SKP-SC-EVs was profiled and functional experiments were screened. Notably, miR-30a-5p was selected because of the remarkably pro-angiogenic ability in vivo and in vitro, which was similar to the effects of SKP-SC-EVs. Luciferase reporter assay and functional experiments revealed miR-30a-5p contained in SKP-SC-EVs promoted angiogenesis by targeting ANGPT2 and LIF in the insufficient of VEGFa. Taken together, miR-30a-5p enriched in SKP-SC-EVs may be a key regulator of angiogenesis for the cell-free treatment for peripheral nerve injury.

Heat-killed probiotic Levilactobacillus brevis MRKAK9 downregulates insulin-signaling pathway and improves proteostasis and autophagy to promote longevity and immunity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Project description:Probiotics play important role in maintaining the health and extend longevity in their host. Previous studies reported several live probiotic bacteria in enhancing longevity and improving diverse feature of the host’s health. In this study, we reported a new potential heat- killed probiotic bacterium Levilactobacillus brevis strain MRKAK9 improved longevity and different features of healthy aging, including age-associated physical activity, improved resistance to biotic and abiotic stress in C. elegans. The mechanistic investigations showed that heat-killed strain MRKAK9 promoted longevity and healthy aging by downregulating insulin-signaling pathway resulting in improved proteostasis, autophagy and preserving lysosomal functionality in C. elegans. Heat-killed strain MRKAK9-mediated downregulation of insulin signaling pathway was regulated by the miRNA mir-243, suggesting that mir-243 partially involved in enhancing longevity of C. elegans. Additionally, the structural component exopolysaccharide of the strain heat-killed MRKAK9 also downregulated insulin- signaling mechanisms, increased the expression of genes involved in proteostatsis, autophagy as well as improved expression of mir-243. This study indicates that heat-killed strain MRKAK9 improves longevity and healthy aging, suggesting its candidature as a novel postbiotic.

RNA isoform repertoire of neuropsychiatric risk genes in human brain

Project description:Neuropsychiatric disorders are highly complex conditions and the risk of developing a disorder has been tied to hundreds of genomic variants that alter the expression and/or products (isoforms) made by risk genes. However, how these genes contribute to disease risk and onset through altered expression and RNA splicing is not well understood. Here we show our current understanding of gene isoforms is far from complete and reveal the precise splicing profiles of neuropsychiatric disorder risk genes. Combining our new bioinformatic pipeline IsoLamp with nanopore long-read amplicon sequencing, we deeply profiled the RNA isoform repertoire of 31 high-confidence neuropsychiatric disorder risk genes in human brain. We show most risk genes are more complex than previously reported, identifying 443 novel isoforms and 28 novel exons, including isoforms which alter protein domains, and genes such as ATG13 and GATAD2A where most expression was from previously undiscovered isoforms. The greatest isoform diversity was present in the schizophrenia risk gene ITIH4. Mass spectrometry of brain protein isolates confirmed translation of a novel exon skipping event in ITIH4, suggesting a new regulatory mechanism for this gene in brain. Our results emphasize the widespread presence of previously undetected RNA and protein isoforms in brain and provide an effective approach to address this knowledge gap. Uncovering the isoform repertoire of neuropsychiatric risk genes will underpin future analyses of the functional impact these isoforms have on neuropsychiatric disorders, enabling the translation of genomic findings into a pathophysiological understanding of disease.

Single-molecule, full-length transcript isoform sequencing reveals disease-associated RNA isoforms

Project description:Alternative splicing generates differing RNA isoforms that govern phenotypic complexity of eukaryotes. Its malfunction underlies many diseases, including cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Comparative analysis of RNA isoforms at the genome-wide scale has been difficult. Here, we established an experimental and computational pipeline that accurately quantifies transcript isoforms in their entire length from cDNA sequences with a full-length isoform detection accuracy of 97.6%. We generated a searchable, quantitative human transcriptome annotation with 31,025 known and 5,740 novel transcript isoforms (http://steinmetzlab.embl.de/iBrowser/). By analyzing the isoforms in the presence of RNA Binding Motif Protein 20 (RBM20) mutations associated with aggressive dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), we identified 121 differentially expressed transcript isoforms in 107 cardiac genes. By establishing an isoform-differential expression test, our approach revealed that 11 of these genes displayed no detectable change in overall RNA expression. However, significant differences in the expression of specific isoforms in these genes was observed. These isoform specific effects demonstrate the need of analyzing RNA isoform expression levels rather than total gene expression levels.
