Quantitative characterization of the aging intestine secretome reveals novel secreted proteins that act in the extracellular space to regulate lifespan


ABSTRACT: Secreted proteins are essential to modulate the extracellular space and communicate to distal cells or tissues. But the importance of extracellular proteins in aging has been understudied. Here we use proximity labeling followed by quantitative proteomics to systematically characterize the intestine and neuron secretome in C. elegans. We identify many previously unknown intestine secreted proteins that change with age, and we validate the secretion of these proteins by in vivo cell biology. One of these secreted proteins, ACP7, is well conserved in humans. Overexpressing ACP7 extends lifespan in a secretion-dependent manner, and we find that ACP7 acts as a phosphatase in the extracellular space. Finally, we identify additional proteins along the secretion pathway that regulate lifespan, including VAPA – a protein localized to small secretory vesicles in the intestine. Our systematic characterization of tissue-specific secretome during aging uncovers novel proteins that impact lifespan and highlights the role of extracellular enzymes in aging.
