Project description:Transcriptional Profile of Aging in C. elegans Whole-genome analysis of gene expression during chronological aging of the worm provides a rich database of age-specific changes in gene expression and represents one way to distinguish among these models. Using a rigorous statistical model with multiple replicates, we find that a relatively small number of genes (only 164) show statistically significant changes in transcript levels as aging occurs (<1% of the genome). Expression of heat shock proteins decreases, while expression of certain transposases increases in older worms, and these findings are consistent with a higher mortality risk due to a failure in homeostenosis and destabilization of the genome in older animals. Finally, a specific subset of genes is coordinately altered both during chronological aging and in the transition from the reproductive form to the dauer, demonstrating a mechanistic overlap in aging between these two processes.

Project description:The incidence of breast cancer increases with age until menopause, and breast cancer is more aggressive in younger women. The existence of epidemiological links between breast cancer and aging indicates that both processes possibly share some common mechanisms of development. Oxidative stress is associated with both cancer susceptibility and aging. Here we observed that ERBB2-positive breast cancer, developed from genetically different ERBB2-positive transgenic mice generated by a backcross, is more aggressive in younger than in older mice, similar to what occurs in humans. In this cohort, we estimated the oxidative biological age using a mathematical model that integrated several subphenotypes directly or indirectly related to oxidative stress. This model included the serum levels of HDL-cholesterol and magnesium that were determined at a disease-free stage, and total AKT1 and glutathione concentrations in the liver at the time of necropsy. Later we defined the grade of aging due to oxidative stress as the increment of aging, which was the difference between the predicted biological age and the chronological age. This comparison permitted the identification of the biologically younger mice with less oxidative stress and older mice with more oxidative stress than would be expected according to their chronological age. Interestingly, biologically older mice developed more aggressive breast cancer than the biologically younger mice. We identified genomic regions on chromosomes 2 and 15 that were linked to the grade of oxidative aging. The levels of expression of Zbp1 located on chromosome 2, a gene related to necroptosis and inflammation, positively correlated with the grade of oxidative aging and tumour aggressiveness. This study shows part of the complex interactions between breast cancer and aging.

Project description:Aging is the greatest risk factor for neurodegeneration, but the connection between the two processes remains opaque. This is in part for want of a rigorous way to define physiological age, as opposed to chronological age. Here, we develop a comprehensive metric for physiological age in Drosophila, based on genome-wide expression profiling. We applied this metric to a model of adult-onset neurodegeneration, increased or decreased expression of the activating subunit of the Cdk5 protein kinase, encoded by the gene Cdk5α, the ortholog of mammalian p35. Cdk5α-mediated degeneration was associated with a 27-150% acceleration of the intrinsic rate of aging, depending on the tissue and genetic manipulation. Gene ontology analysis and direct experimental tests revealed that affected age-associated processes included numerous core phenotypes of neurodegeneration, including enhanced oxidative stress and impaired proteostasis. Taken together, our results suggest that Cdk5α-mediated neurodegeneration results from accelerated aging, in combination with cell-autonomous neuronal insults. These data fundamentally recast our picture of the relationship between neurodegeneration and its most prominent risk factor, natural aging.

Project description:Aging is a complex process characterized by a progressive decline in physiological integrity that leads to impaired cellular and tissue function. Adult stem cells play a critical role in organismal health and aging. Their age-related deterioration contributes to a reduced homeostatic and regenerative capacity. Notably, most studies of stem cell aging focus on the mechanisms of replicative aging in stem cells with high cellular turnover. Yet, the therapeutic potential of stem cells with low cellular turnover, such as adipose-derived stem cells (ASC), is increasingly recognized as potentially superior. The mechanism of aging in low turnover stem cells is thought to differ from those with high turnover and to more closely reflect chronological aging. The latter, however, is exceedingly difficult to study in slowly replicating primary human stem cells and thus remains poorly understood. Here, we employ our unique model of chronological aging in primary human ASCs to examine genome-wide transcriptional networks in early chronological aging using RNA-seq analyses. Our findings demonstrate that the transcriptome of aging ASCs is more stable than that of age-matched fibroblasts. Limited transcriptional modifications in aging ASCs reveal more active transcriptional profiles of cell cycle genes and translation initiation genes when compared with aging differentiated cells. Accordingly, nascent protein synthesis, measured by incorporation of op-puromycin, is increased in ASCs from older individuals, concurrent with a decreased phosphorylation at ser-51 of eIF2, a mechanism of inhibiting translation initiation. A shortened G1 phase observed in the old ASCs could be linked to the increased protein synthesis activity, potentially resulting in more active cell proliferation. This effect, however, is not detected in aging fibroblasts. The altered regulation of cell cycle in aging ASCs could allow a more active cell proliferation to meet an increase demand to preserve tissue and organ functions. These observations are consistent with data supporting the maintenance of ASC integrity in aging human adipose tissue and reveal early chronological aging mechanisms in ASCs that are inherently different from other cell types.

Project description:Skeletal muscle is a post-mitotic tissue that exhibits an extremely low turnover in the absence of disease or injury. At the same time, muscle possesses remarkable regenerative capacity mediated by satellite cells (SCs) that reside in close association with individual myofibers, underneath the fiber’s basal lamina. Consistent with the low turnover of the muscle, SCs in adult animals are mitotically quiescent and therefore provide an excellent model to study stem cell quiescence. As an organism grows older, the resident stem cells are exposed to a deteriorating environment and experience chronological aging. In stem cells with high turnover, the effects of chronological aging are superimposed upon the effects of the replicative aging that results from DNA replication and cell division. On the contrary, SCs experience minimal replicative aging due to their low turnover. They are thus a good model to study the consequence of chronological aging of quiescent stem cells. We performed microarray analysis of quiescent and activated SCs from both young and aged mice to understand the global gene expression profile underlying stem cell properties such as quiecence and self-renewal, and to understand how the transcriptome of a quiescent stem cell pouplation changes with age. VCAM+/CD31-/CD45-/Sca1- quiescent satellite cells (QSCs) were isolated by FACS from hindlimb muscle of uninjured 2-3- or 22-24-month old mice. Activated satellite cells (ASCs) were isolated from hindlimb muscles of BaCl2-injured mice of the same age 36, 60 and 84 hours after injury using the same cell surface marker combination. YFP-expressing cells were isolated from 2-3-month old Pax7CreER/+; ROSA26eYFP/+ mice in which satellite cells are labeled geneticall by YFP expression. Total RNA was extracted from cells with the Trizol reagent according to manufacturer's instructions. RNA was then processed and assayed with Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays.

We have developed an isolation protocol to selectively enrich SCs by FACS from adult mice and applied the ChIP-seq technology to obtain H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H3K36me3 from quiescent and activated SCs from young mice and from quiescent SCs from old mice. Our analysis aims to understand the chromatin features underlying stem cell properties such as quiecence and lineage-potency, and to understand how the chromatin structure of a quiescent stem cell pouplation changes with age. VCAM+/CD31-/CD45-/Sca1- quiescent satellite cells (QSCs) were isolated by FACS from hindlimb muscle of uninjured 2-3- or 22-24-month old mice and processed for ChIP-seq.
