Chromatin accessibility in human colonic fibroblasts

ABSTRACT: We investigated genome-wide chromatin accessibility changes associated with replicative senescence in human colonic fibroblasts (HCoFs). A replicative senescence model was established by serial passaging of HCoFs, and cells at different stages of aging were collected: young (passage 6), mid-old (passage 15), and old (passage 23). To characterize age-associated alterations in chromatin structure, Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin with high-throughput sequencing (ATAC-seq) was performed. Comprehensive epigenomic profiling revealed progressive remodeling of chromatin accessibility during replicative aging. Comparative analysis across young, mid-old, and old cells enabled identification of senescence-associated regulatory regions and dynamic changes in accessible chromatin landscapes. These data provide a valuable resource for understanding the epigenetic mechanisms underlying replicative senescence in human colonic fibroblasts and offer insight into how age-dependent chromatin reorganization contributes to transcriptional regulation during cellular aging.

Analysis of the senescence transcriptome in TRF2dBdM-induced senescence and replicative senescence [microarray]

Project description:We stably infected IMR90 fibroblasts with lentiviral vectors expressing doxycycline-inducible TRF2dBdM or vector control. Cells were treated with 1mg/ml of doxycycline for 7 days to induce senescence in the cells expressing TRF2dBdM before collecting RNA. IMR90 cells, either young (passage 10, population doubling ~20) or old (passage 24, population doubling ~40-48) were also used as a model of replicative senescence. The transcriptomes were analyzed using RNA microarrays.

Nucleosome loss leads to global transcriptional upregulation and genomic instability during yeast replicative aging

Project description:All eukaryotic cells divide a finite number of times, termed replicative aging, but the reason for this is not clear. Consistent with the decreased total histone protein levels in aged Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is a cause of aging (1), we find that nucleosome occupancy decreases 50% across the whole genome during replicative aging by spike-in controlled MNase sequencing. Nucleosomes become fuzzier or move to sequences predicted to better accommodate histone octamers. All yeast genes are induced during aging. Genes that are repressed in young cells are most induced, accompanied by nucleosome loss from their promoters that have unique chromatin organization. Contrary to the loss of mitochondrial function during aging, mitochondrial DNA content increases and unprecedented levels of large-scale chromosomal alterations and increased retrotransposition are observed. Mnase-Seq experiments were carried out for young yeast, old yeast, and old yeast with histone over expression, 3 replicates were done for each category. RNA-Seq were carried out for the same categories of yeast cells but with 2 replicates for each. Genome-Seq were done for the young and old yeast with 2 replicates for each.

p53- repressed miRNAs are involved with E2F in a feed forward loop promoting proliferation

Project description:There is a distinctive miRNA expression profile between early (young) and replicative senescence (old).

In Vitro Modeling of Age-Related Methylation Changes with Intestinal Organoids [RRBS]

Project description:Intestinal organoids, three-dimensional cultures from intestinal stem cells, are a powerful model for studying aging, and DNA methylation is an accurate biological clock. Consequently, we hypothesized that organoid DNA methylation could serve as an aging metric and a valuable tool for in vitro aging research. Our initial study revealed significant DNA methylation changes, during organoid culture, with 27% of total CpG sites undergoing hypomethylation, and 11% gaining hypermethylation. Hypomethylation occurred predominantly in aging-associated genomic regions, including non-promoter, non-CpG island regions (e.g., transposable elements), while hypermethylation, in CpG islands, significantly (p < 0.001) correlated with aging. Comparison of aging-methylated sites with differentiation-specific CpG sites showed minimal overlap, indicating negligible association. Early-passage (P0 and P2) organoids, derived from 4- and 24-month-old mice, preserved aging-specific methylation patterns, with a correlation coefficient of 0.48 (p < 0.001) between methylation differences in old versus young primary cells. Conversely, long-term passaging revealed distinct methylation changes, specific to each organoid line. Some early passage organoids exhibited more hypomethylation, clustering with mid-passage (P10 - P13) organoids, while late-passage (P24 and P27) organoids entered a crisis stage with severe hypomethylation, growth arrest, and distant clustering. Transposable elements remained hypomethylated, compared to primary cells. Aging-related methylation sites continued to change with passage, and linear modeling predicted that organoids age at a rate of 0.46 months per week in culture. Treatment with decitabine reversed the methylation age of organoids, derived from 24-month-old mice. These findings suggest that organoids effectively model aging, with further research needed to assess culture-associated influences.

Senescence-associated lncRNAs: senescence-associated long noncoding RNAs.

Project description:Noncoding RNAs include small transcripts, such as microRNAs and piwi-interacting RNAs, and a wide range of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). Although many lncRNAs have been identified, only a small number of lncRNAs have been characterized functionally. Here, we sought to identify lncRNAs differentially expressed during replicative senescence. We compared lncRNAs expressed in proliferating, early-passage, 'young' human diploid WI-38 fibroblasts [population doubling (PDL) 20] with those expressed in senescent, late-passage, 'old' fibroblasts (PDL 52) by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Numerous transcripts in all lncRNA groups (antisense lncRNAs, pseudogene-encoded lncRNAs, previously described lncRNAs and novel lncRNAs) were validated using reverse transcription (RT) and real-time, quantitative (q)PCR. Among the novel senescence-associated lncRNAs (SAL-RNAs) showing lower abundance in senescent cells, SAL-RNA1 (XLOC_023166) was found to delay senescence, because reducing SAL-RNA1 levels enhanced the appearance of phenotypic traits of senescence, including an enlarged morphology, positive Î²-galactosidase activity, and heightened p53 levels. Our results reveal that the expression of known and novel lncRNAs changes with senescence and suggests that SAL-RNAs play direct regulatory roles in this important cellular process. RNA was extracted from both young and senescent WI-38 cells and used for total RNA-Seq.
