Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The complexity of the aging process, encompassing numerous organs and systems, poses a significant challenge in identifying and targeting key factors that drive age-related decline. The multi-organ synchronous molecular intricacies underlying natural aging remain elusive. Here we presented a data resource for proteomics and metabolomics analyses on ten organs (brain, heart, intestine, kidney, liver, lung, muscle, skin, spleen and stomach) of mice spanning from youth to aging (4, 8, 12 and 20 months, n = 10). We detected and quantified 14,763 protein groups (PGs) and 4,779 metabolites across the ten organs. We found immunoregulation was deeply involved in multi-organ aging. Specifically, 18 immune-related proteins including Ighm showed significant expression changes in all ten organs. Besides, aging organs also expressed age-attributed proteins such as App, Plg and Saa1. Our study revealed that age-related metabolite changes are primarily concentrated in purine, pyrimidine and nicotinate-nicotinamide metabolism, and further constructed a differential proteins-metabolites network. These data highlight the dynamic molecular changes during organ aging, offering insights into geriatric health decline.

Project description:BackgroundAging is a complex biological process characterized by progressive molecular alterations across multiple organ systems, significantly influencing disease susceptibility and mortality. Unraveling molecular interactions driving aging is crucial for interventions promoting healthy aging and mitigating senescence. However, the systemic mechanisms governing both inter-organ interactions and organ-specific aging trajectories remain incompletely characterized.MethodsTo investigate the molecular dynamics of aging, we conducted a systematic multi-omics analysis of 400 tissue samples collected from 10 organs (brain, heart, intestine, kidney, liver, lung, muscle, skin, spleen, and stomach) in mice at four distinct life stages: 4, 8, 12, and 20 months (from youth to elderly). Proteomic profiling was performed using data-independent acquisition (DIA) technology, while metabolomic analysis was performed in both positive and negative ion modes. Differential expression analysis of proteins and metabolites was employed to construct a comprehensive multi-organ aging dataset. ResultsProteomic profiling across ten organs at four age stages identified a total of 14,763 protein groups (PGs). Of these, 18 proteins, including Ighm, C4b, and Hpx, exhibited consistent age-related differential expression patterns across all ten organs. Functional enrichment analysis highlighted the humoral immune response as a primary driver of age-related expression changes. Additionally, this study mapped a set of age-unique proteins, such as Hp, Egf, and Arg, with distinct expression patterns in aging organs. Metabolic analysis identified 3,779 metabolites, with key aging-related metabolites such as NAD+, inosine, xanthine, and hypoxanthine showing significant expression changes across multiple organs. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed consistent alterations in purine metabolism, pyrimidine metabolism, riboflavin metabolism, and nicotinate/nicotinamide metabolism during multi-organ aging.ConclusionsThis study provides a multi-omics atlas of multi-organ aging, revealing both intra- and inter-organ similarities and heterogeneities. These findings offer valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying geriatric health decline and serve as a foundational resource for organism-systematic early warning and targeted interventions against aging-associated pathologies.

Project description:Aging progress is distinctly characterized by systematic and progressive decline of physiological functions with increasing age in virtually all tissues or organs. Addressing the patterns of molecular changes in different tissues and how different tissues interact with each other during aging are an important question in aging. This study sampled seven tissues at four ages in rats to measure genome-scale gene expression, which allows global insight into coordination, specificity and/or commonness among different tissues with aging progress. We sampled seven different tissues or organs of male Sprague Dawley rats including hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenal gland, spleen lymphocytes, liver, kidney, and bone at successive ages of 4, 10, 18, and 24 months. For each age, ten individual rats were obtained and seven tissues from the same individual rat were derived every time, and the 5µg of each extracted RNA sample of the same tissue from ten individual rats was equally mixed, then the total amount of 15 µg RNA from this mixture was hybridized to Affymetrix RAE230A GeneChip.

Project description:The kidney is an excellent model for studying organ aging. Kidney function shows steady decline with age and is easy to assay using urine or blood samples. However, little is known about the molecular changes that take place in the kidney during the aging process. In order to better understand the molecular changes that occur with age, we measured mRNA and protein levels in 188 genetically diverse mice at ages 6, 12, and 18 months. We observed distinctive change in mRNA and protein levels as a function of age. Changes in both mRNA and protein are associated with increased immune infiltration and decreases in mitochondrial function. Proteins show a greater extent of change and reveal changes in a wide array of biological processes including unique, organ-specific features of aging in kidney. Most importantly, we observed functionally important age-related changes in protein that occur in the absence of corresponding changes in mRNA. Our findings suggest that mRNA profiling alone provides an incomplete picture of molecular aging in the kidney and that examination of changes in proteins is essential to understand aging processes that are not transcriptionally regulated.

Project description:Ageing is a key risk factor for disease and mortality in humans and other animals, with most insights derived from genomic, epigenomic, and transcriptomic studies. However, large-scale datasets on age-related changes at the protein level remain scarce. To fill this gap, we performed a comprehensive quantitative proteomic analysis across eight major organs—brain, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, spleen, skeletal muscle, and testis—in male C57BL/6J mice, sampled at key life stages: young adult (3–5 months), adult (8 months), mid-life (14 months), and late life (20–26 months). Our results revealed diverse rates of protein expression changes, ranging from rapid (kidneys, spleen) to moderate (liver, lungs) to minimal (skeletal muscle, testis) and subtle (heart, brain). Aging onset appeared earlier in the spleen and kidneys compared to the liver and lungs. By isolating the non-blood proteome, we identified enriched organ-specific processes like oxidative phosphorylation (kidneys) and lipid metabolism (liver), along with shared processes across organs. These findings provide valuable insights into organ-specific and shared protein dynamics underlying age-related diseases.

Project description:Proteins are the cornerstone of human life, yet the proteomic landscape of aging across human tissues remains largely unexplored. Here, we present a comprehensive proteomic analysis of 520 samples from 15 human tissues, spanning a 50-year lifespan. Our study compiles a proteomic encyclopedia of multiple human organs, revealing an age-related decoupling between proteomic and transcriptomic profiles, and a loss of proteostasis characterized by the accumulation of amyloid proteins. We identified both shared and organ-specific proteomic signatures of aging, expanding the catalog of biomarkers for organ senescence. By pinpointing protein determinants of organ aging, we developed multi-organ proteomic aging clocks, uncovered disease risk factors, and potential therapeutic targets. Our dynamic analysis of proteomic temporal patterns indicates that organs experience a precipitous aging shift around age 50, with vasculature, which extensively interacts with other organs, showing early and notably aggressive senescence. Furthermore, we established a plasma proteomic signature of human aging, traced their organ origins, and identified key proteins driving endothelial senescence. Collectively, our work provides an unprecedented dynamic proteomic atlas of human aging, laying a foundation for decoding, assessing, and intervening in the aging process with proteins at the core.

Project description:The importance of brain-body interactions in the progresses of diseases are increasingly noticed, and understanding the associated processes could vastly improve the health of whole organism. A comprehensive, whole-organism analysis of organ dynamics to identify the molecular processes within and between organs after brain injury caused by ischemic stroke has been lacking. Mice models of 24 hours ischemic brain injury are constructed. Proteomics and metabolomics are used to detect the changes of organ’s proteome and metaboleome, respectively, and multiple bioinformatics analysis are performed to investigate the changing signatures across organs after stroke. Then, the organ proteomics data combined with aging mouse organ transcriptome data and mouse organ scRNA-seq data to reveal the biological age of organs and cellular resource of differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) of organs after stroke, respectively. Finally, we cross-referenced stroke-related DEPs in plasma with their corresponding protein expression in each organ to investigate the original source of plasma proteins by using spearman’s correlation analysis. Bioinformatics analysis showing the synchronization and asynchronization of the stroke-related proteins involved in multiple regulatory pathways are universally across organs. Although significant inter-organ correlations exist without influenced by stroke, the protein expression changes may better reflect the inter-organ correlation after brain injury by sharing some common changing signatures. Then, hundreds of DEPs in organs with the greatest numbers of DEPs are revealed in heart, and they are unique and common expressed between organs. Notably, an integrate analysis of these DEPs with mouse aging RNA-seq data reveal ageing-like changes in organs, suggesting increased biological ages of organs. Furthermore, a conjoint analysis of our proteomic data with scRNA-seq data confirms the cellular source of DEPs originated from intrinsic cells and immune cells, and the latter are widely located and activated in organs. Finally, we find that some DEPs in plasma are highly correlated with corresponding protein levels in distinct organs, potentially resulting in the stroke of the systemic circulation. Together, this study demonstrates a similar yet asynchronous inter- and intra-organ progression of stroke, providing a fundamental resource for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying brain-body interaction and potential interventions for brain injury.

Project description:Aging organs functionally and structurally decline with the loss of their regenerative capabilities, yet the existence of distinct cell division programs that determine organ fates is unknown. Hair follicles, mammalian mini-organs that grow hair, miniaturize by aging. Here we report that hair follicle regeneration and aging are driven by distinct cell division types of hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). Cell fate tracing and cell division axis analysis in mice revealed that HFSCs undergo symmetric and asymmetric cell divisions to generate a new bulge, yet preferentially provoke “stress-responsive type” asymmetric cell divisions that generate aberrantly differentiating cells upon age/stress. That dynamic program with repetitive divisions efficiently eradicates those cells through defective association and stabilization of a hemidesmosomal protein COL17A1 and a cell-polarity-protein aPKCλ in HFSCs, thereby causing organ aging. The forced stabilization of COL17A1 rescued organ aging through aPKCλ stabilization. These results demonstrate that distinct cell division programs govern tissue/organ fates.

Project description:Oxidative stress plays a key role in aging and related diseases, including neurodegeneration, cancer, and organ failure. Copper (Cu), a redox-active metal ion, generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), and its dysregulation contributes to aging. Here, we develop activity-based imaging probes for the sensitive detection of Cu(I) and show that labile hepatic Cu activity increases with age, paralleling a decline in ALDH1A1 activity, a protective hepatic enzyme. We also observe an age-related decrease in hepatic glutathione (GSH) activity through noninvasive photoacoustic imaging. Using these probes, we perform longitudinal studies in aged mice treated with ATN-224, a Cu chelator, and demonstrate that this treatment improves Cu homeostasis and preserves ALDH1A1 activity. Our findings uncover a direct link between Cu dysregulation and aging, providing insights into its role and offering a therapeutic strategy to mitigate its effects.

Project description:Aging in multicellular organisms is characterized by gradual decline of organ functionality. To study the aging process, we used mRNA sequencing (mRNA-seq) to identify gene expression changes during aging in healthy mice. Skeletal muscle tissues of wild-type mice at 3 months and 24 months of age were collected and mRNA-seq libraries were prepared and sequenced on a HiSeq2500 by single-end sequencing with 100 bp read length. Analysis of the expression profiles of aged skeletal muscle tissues showed decreased mRNA levels of genes function in lipid metabolism, peptidase activity and response to stimulus.

Project description:Aging is the progressive decline in organismal function that leads to an increased risk of multiple diseases and mortality. The molecular basis of this decline is unknown. Using quantitative PCR for mitochondrial mRNA from multiple tissues from the same animals, we found that the rate of change in mouse mitochondrial expression is tissue-specific, with cardiac expression declining early (8-10 months), adipose expression declining late (25-30 months), and no change in kidney or skin. In cardiac tissue, mitochondria-derived mRNA levels declined more slowly than nuclear encoded mRNAs, suggesting a potential dysregulation. These changes were independent of alteration in mitochondrial number, as measured by quantitative PCR of mitochondrial DNA and citrate synthase activity. We found no change in the variability between mitochondrial mRNA levels with age, suggesting that the changes are not due to random dysregulation at the level of gene expression. Caloric restriction (CR), a lifespan-extending intervention proposed to act through mitochondrial biogenesis, delayed the decline in both cardiac and adipose mitochondrial mRNA levels of F344 rats. CR caused an increase in citrate synthase activity but did not alter mitochondrial DNA content, indicating increased translation or reduced turnover of mitochondrial proteins. These results demonstrate that mitochondrial gene expression changes with age are not coupled to mitochondrial number, are likely to be regulated, and are governed by tissue-specific processes. These findings indicate that aging is neither a programmed organism-wide change orchestrated in a top-down fashion nor a product of random dysregulation of gene expression but that tissue-specific factors may independently control aging in different organ compartments. Keywords: aging Cardiac ventricle total RNA from 10 young (4-6 month) and 10 young (25-28 month) mice were compared.
