Aging-associated inflammation promotes selection for adaptive oncogenic events in B cell progenitors

ABSTRACT: Cancer incidence increases in the elderly, although the underlying reasons for this association are unknown. We show that B-progenitors in old mice exhibit profound signaling and metabolic defects, and that expression of BCR-ABL, NRASV12 and MYC reverses these fitness defects, leading to selection of oncogenically-initiated cells and leukemogenesis in old hematopoietic backgrounds. Aging is associated with increased inflammation in the BM microenvironment, and inducing inflammation in young mice phenocopies aging B-lymphopoiesis. Importantly, reducing inflammation in aged mice preserves the function of B-progenitors and prevents NRasV12-mediated oncogenesis. We conclude that chronic microenvironments in old age lead to reductions in the fitness of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell populations. This reduced progenitor pool fitness leads to selection for cells harboring oncogenic mutations in part due to their ability to correct aging-associated functional defects. Aging B-lymphopoiesis is accompanied by significant reductions in purine and pyrimidine metabolism. Microarray experiment results also indicated that mitochondrial dysfunction accompanied aging B-lymphopoiesis.

Restoring bone marrow niche function rejuvenates aged hematopoietic stem cells by reactivating the DNA Damage Response [4]

Project description:The bone marrow (BM) niche comprised of BM endothelial cells (BMECs) and LepR+ mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), plays a critical role in preserving the fitness of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Aging is associated with defects in the BM niche that impair their ability to support HSC activity. However, mechanisms underlying age-related defects in the BM niche remain poorly understood. In this study, we identify BM niche derived Netrin-1 (NTN1) as a critical regulator of BM niche cell fitness during aging. Conditional deletion of NTN-1 specifically within BM MSCs or BMECs of young mice resulted in premature aging phenotypes within the BM niche including increased vascular leakiness, hypoxia, DNA damage and adiposity. On the other hand, supplementation of aged mice with NTN1 resulted in restoration of these hallmark niche defects and a rejuvenation of HSC activity. Mechanistically, we identify NTN1 as a critical regulator of DNA Damage Response (DDR) within BM niche cells and HSCs. In this experiment, RNA Seq analysis was performed on HSCs derived from young mice (3 month old), PBS treated aged mice (18 month old), and NTN1 treated aged mice (18 month old), to characterize transcriptional alterations within HSCs during aging, and following NTN1 treatment of aged mice.

Myeloid Skewing in Aging Bone Marrow Depends on Long-lived Plasma Cell Accumulation

Project description:Aging results in a reduction in B lymphopoiesis and an increase in myelopoiesis in mice and humans. We investigated how cellular changes in the aging hematopoietic microenvironment contribute to these alterations in hematopoiesis and found that long-lived plasma cells (LLPCs) increase in number in the bone marrow of old mice. The LLPCs exhibited a Toll Like Receptor activation signal, and their accumulation was partially dependent on inflammatory cytokines. LLPCs were able to stimulate myelopoiesis from hematopoietic stem cells and myeloid progenitors in vitro, and anti-CD138 antibody-mediated depletion of LLPCs or blockade of pro-inflammatory signaling in old mice in vivo resulted in a significant reduction in LLPC number and attenuated myeloid development. However, B lymphopoiesis remained suppressed. These data identify the increase in LLPC number as obligate for age-associated increases in myelopoiesis and provide evidence that, in the context of aging, enhanced myelopoiesis and depressed lymphopoiesis are distinct, independently regulated processes.

Project description:To understand the age-related retinal gene changes, gene transcription profiles of neural retinal tissues from young adult (3-month) mice and old (20-month) mice were investigated by microarray. With age, 632 genes were up-regulated and 429 genes were down-regulated in the retina. Functional annotation showed that genes linked to immune responses and to tissue stress/injury responses were most modified by old age. Significant numbers of gene involved in the innate immune response including leukocyte activation, chemotaxis, endocytosis, complement activation, phagocytosis and myeloid cell differentiation were up-regulated and only a few were down-regulated. Increased microglial and complement activation in the aging retina was further confirmed by confocal microscopy of retinal tissues. The results suggest that retinal aging is accompanied with activation of a number of local inflammatory responses. A modified form of low-grade chronic inflammation (para-inflammation) characterizes these aging changes and involves mainly the innate immune system. Para-inflammation per se may be beneficial to normal retinal physiology in aging by promoting retinal homeostasis; conversely, dysreulation of the para-inflammation response may contribute to the pathogenesis of age-related retinal degeneration. Six young (3-month) and six old (20-month) mice were used for microarray study. Total RNA from each sample were extracted and undergone quality control analysis. RNA from 3 mice of the same group were then pooled together for gene array experiment.

Lymphoid Biased Hematopoietic Stem Cells are Maintained with Age and Retain Normal Developmental Potential in the Absence of Inflammatory Stimuli

Project description:The hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartment includes lymphoid biased (Ly-HSCs) and myeloid biased (My-HSCs) subsets. Current models propose that the number of Ly-HSCs declines with age and this contributes to the diminution of lymphopoiesis that is a feature of aging. This view is based on a reduction in the frequency of Ly-HSCs in old bone marrow, but we now show that when total HSCs are taken into account, the number of Ly-HSCs is not reduced in old mice. We further demonstrate that old Ly-HSCs exhibit a normal capacity to produce lymphoid progenitors when removed from the bone marrow. However, the production of inflammatory cytokines is known to increase with age, and when Ly-HSCs are exposed to these mediators, lymphocyte production is blocked. We also demonstrate that old Ly-HSCs generate myeloid cells that phenotypically resemble those produced by old My-HSCs, a finding consistent with the myeloid biased gene expression pattern of old Ly-HSCs. These observations indicate that current models of how aging impacts the lymphopoietic potential of HSCs need to be revised and point to changes in the in vivo environment, rather than intrinsic changes in HSCs, as the principal cause of the reduced lymphopoiesis and increased myelopoiesis during aging.

Organ-specific inflammaging in mice

Project description:Aging is accompanied by chronic, low-grade systemic inflammation, termed inflammaging, a main driver of age-associated diseases. Such sterile inflammation is typically characterized by elevated levels of pro-inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines and reactive oxygen species causing organ damage. Lipid mediators play important roles in the fine-tuning of both the promotion and the resolution of inflammation. Yet, it remains unclear how lipid mediators fit within the concept of inflammaging and how their biosynthesis and function is affected by aging. Here, we provide comprehensive signature profiles of inflammatory markers in organs afflicted with inflammation of young and old C57BL/6 mice. We reveal an organ-specific footprint of inflammation-related cytokines, chemokines and lipid mediators, which are distinctively affected by aging. While some organs are characterized by a pronounced pro-inflammatory microenvironment and impaired resolution during aging, others display elevated levels of pro-resolving mediators or an overall decrease in inflammatory signaling. Our results demonstrate that it proves difficult to establish a unifying concept for alterations of immunomodulatory mediators as consequence of aging and that organ specificity needs to be considered. Moreover, our data imply that inclusion of lipid mediators into the concept of inflammaging provides a comprehensive tool to characterize the inflammatory microenvironment during aging on a broader and yet, more detailed scope.

IL-33 causes thermogenic failure in aging by expanding dysfunctional adipose ILC2 [bulk rnaseq]

Project description:Aging impairs the integrated immunometabolic responses which have evolved to maintain core body temperature in homeotherms to survive cold-stress, infections, and dietary restriction. Adipose tissue inflammation regulates the thermogenic stress response but how adipose tissue-resident cells instigate thermogenic failure in the aged are unknown. Here, we define alterations in the adipose-resident immune system and identify that type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) are lost in aging. Restoration of ILC2 numbers in aged mice to levels seen in adults through IL-33 supplementation failed to rescue old mice from metabolic impairment and increased cold-induced lethality. Transcriptomic analyses revealed intrinsic defects in aged ILC2, and adoptive transfer of adult ILC2 are sufficient to protect old mice against cold. Thus, the functional defects in adipose ILC2 during aging drive thermogenic failure.

Genome-wide expression analysis of murine sciatic nerve of young and old mice

Project description:The regenerative capacity of peripheral nerves declines during aging, contributing to the development of neuropathies, limiting organism function. Changes in Schwann cells prompt failures in instructing maintenance and regeneration of aging nerves; altered inflammatory environment leading to a defective Schwann cell response, as an underlying mechanism of impaired nerve regeneration during aging. Chronic inflammation was detected in intact uninjured old nerves, characterized by increased macrophage infiltration and raised levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP1) and CC chemokine ligand 11 (CCL11). Schwann cells in the old nerves appeared partially dedifferentiated, accompanied by an activated repair program independent of injury. Upon sciatic nerve injury, an initial delayed immune response was followed by a persistent hyperinflammatory state accompanied by a diminished repair process. As a contributing factor to nerve aging, we showed that CCL11 interfered with Schwann cell differentiation in vitro and in vivo. Our results indicate that increased infiltration of macrophages and inflammatory signals diminish regenerative capacity of aging nerves by altering Schwann cell behavior. The study identifies CCL11 as a promising target for anti‐inflammatory therapies aiming to improve nerve regeneration in old age.
