Recapitulation of human premature aging by using iPSCs from Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome

ABSTRACT: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare and fatal human premature aging disease1-5, characterized by premature atherosclerosis and degeneration of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs)6-8. HGPS is caused by a single-point mutation in the LMNA gene, resulting in the generation of progerin, a truncated mutant of lamin A. Accumulation of progerin leads to various aging-associated nuclear defects including disorganization of nuclear lamina and loss of heterochromatin9-12. Here, we report the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from fibroblasts obtained from patients with HGPS. HGPS-iPSCs show absence of progerin, and more importantly, lack the nuclear envelope and epigenetic alterations normally associated with premature aging. Upon differentiation of HGPS-iPSCs, progerin and its associated aging consequences are restored. In particular, directed differentiation of HGPS-iPSCs to SMCs leads to the appearance of premature senescent SMC phenotypes associated with vascular aging. Additionally, our studies identify DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNAPKcs) as a component of the progerin-containing protein complex. The absence of nuclear DNAPKcs correlates with premature as well as physiological aging. Since progerin also accumulates during physiological aging6,12,13, our results provide an in vitro iPSC-based model with an acceleration progerin accumulation to study the pathogenesis of human premature and physiological vascular aging.

Recapitulation of human premature aging by using iPSCs from Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome

Reprogramming Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome fibroblasts resets epigenomic landscape in patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells [Affymetrix]

Project description:Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a segmental premature aging disorder caused by the accumulation of the truncated form of Lamin A known as Progerin within the nuclear lamina. Cellular hallmarks of HGPS include nuclear blebbing, loss of peripheral heterochromatin, defective epigenetic inheritance, altered gene expression, and senescence. To model HGPS using iPSCs, detailed genome-wide and structural analysis of the epigenetic landscape is required to assess the initiation and progression of the disease. We generated a library of iPSC lines from fibroblasts of HGPS patients and controls, including one family trio. Our microarray results suggest that despite the presence of defects associated with Progerin in the nuclear lamina including structural defects, senescence and abnormal epigenetic marks, HGPS fibroblasts can be reprogrammed into iPSCs with transcriptomes that are essentially identical to control iPSCs and hESCs.

Progerin Expression in Endothelial Cells Induces Endothelial Dysfunction

Project description:Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a rare, genetic premature aging disorder associated with severe atherosclerosis, often resulting in fatal heart attacks and strokes. Progerin, the mutant protein in HGPS, also is expressed in healthy individuals and may play a role in the development of atherosclerosis during physiologic aging. Here, we provide evidence for a primary involvement of vascular endothelium in the pathogenesis of accelerated atherosclerosis in HGPS. Expression of progerin in cultured human endothelial cells induces a dysfunctional phenotype, manifested by activation of multiple pro-inflammatory, pro-atherogenic genes. In particular, our data implicate endothelial-derived interleukin-1 (IL-1) as a key mediator of a pro-inflammatory vascular phenotype. Endothelial activation also is detectable in a mouse model of HGPS, and appears to be conveyed to neighboring vascular cells via autocrine and paracrine signaling. These new mechanistic insights into the vascular pathobiology of HGPS may have therapeutic implications for this disease. Genome-wide transcriptional profiling was carried out to assess functional phenotypic changes in endothelial cells (EC) as a result of progerin expression. Cultured EC were infected with an adenovirus expressing progerin (Ad-Progerin), and as a control, an adenovirus that did not express any construct (Ad-Null). Experiments were preformed with three different EC cultures.

Progerin-induced changes in gene expression

Project description:The premature aging disease Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is caused by constitutive production of progerin, a mutant form of the nuclear architectural protein lamin A1. Progerin is also sporadically expressed in wild type cells and has been linked to physiological aging. HGPS cells exhibit extensive nuclear defects including abnormal chromatin structure and increased DNA damage. At the organismal level, HGPS affects several tissues particularly of mesenchymal origin. How the cellular defects of HGPS cells lead to the organismal defects has been unclear. To begin to unravel how progerin leads to disease phenotypes, we analyzed time-dependent changes in transcriptional profiles in response to progerin expression in a hTERT-immortalized skin fibroblast cell line expressing either GFP-progerin or the GFP-wt lamin A control Keywords: time course, cell line comparison

Project description:Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a premature aging disease caused by progerin accumulation. However, the mechanism of how progerin causes cell defects is unclear in HGPS cells. To further investigate the possible mechanism, we used Flag-tagged progerin as bait in mass spectrometry to survey the possible regulatory factors.

PML2‐mediated thread‐like nuclear bodies mark late senescence in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Regular nuclear structure is critical for genome maintenance and proper gene expression, disorder of which has a causal role in aging. Accumulation of Progerin in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) disrupts the integrity of nuclear lamina and causes nuclear structure abnormalities, leading to premature aging. However, the nuclear structure/function relationships in HGPS cells have not been well addressed, and roles of nuclear sub-compartments for HGPS pathogenesis are rarely reported. Here, evidence reveals that classical dot-like PML nuclear bodies (PML NBs) are reorganized into thread-like morphology in HGPS cells, and these irregular NBs are strongly associated with cell senescence. We demonstrate that farnesylated Progerin interacts with PML isoform 2 specifically, which accounts for the formation of thread-like PML NBs. Moreover, our findings uncover that irregular PML NBs perturb NBs-associated DNA repair and gene transcription, thereby promoting HGPS cell senescence. Thus, our work helps to clarify the roles of nuclear structure and sub-compartments such as PML NBs in cell aging, and evidence presented in this study strongly support that thread-like PML NBs could be a novel biomarker of human cell senescence.

Expression data from young and old healthy humans, as well as HGPS patients

Project description:HGPS is a rare premature ageing disease, caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene, which activates a cryptic splice site, resulting in the production of a mutant lamin A isoform, called progerin. Sporadic usage of the same cryptic splice site has been observed with normal physiological aging. As it is unknown how HGPS causes premature ageing defects, we set out to determine the gene signature of both young healthy individuals, old healthy individuals, as well as HGPS patients.
