Reduced insulin/IGF-1 signaling restores the dynamic properties of key stress granule proteins during aging

Project description:Low complexity “prion-like” domains in key RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) mediate the reversible assembly of RNA granules. Individual RBPs harboring these domains have been linked to specific neurodegenerative diseases. Although their aggregation in neurodegeneration has been extensively characterized, it remains unknown how the process of aging disturbs RBP dynamics. We show that a wide variety of RNA granule components including stress granule proteins become highly insoluble with age in C. elegans and that reduced insulin/IGF-1 daf-2 receptor signaling efficiently prevents their aggregation. Importantly, stress granule-related RBP aggregates are associated with reduced fitness. We show that HSF-1 is a main regulator of stress granule-related RBP aggregation in both young and aged animals. During aging, increasing DAF-16 activity restores dynamic stress granule-related RBPs partly by reducing the build-up of other misfolded proteins that seed RBP aggregation. Longevity-associated mechanisms found to maintain dynamic RBPs during aging could be relevant for neurodegenerative diseases.

Circulating insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 Regulates Hippocampal IGF-1 Levels and Brain Gene Expression During Adolescence

Project description:This study, using a growth hormone (GH)-deficient dwarf animal model and peripheral GH replacement, investigated the effects of circulating IGF-1 during adolescence on IGF-1 levels in the brain. Our results demonstrated that hippocampal IGF-1 protein concentrations during adolescence are highly regulated by circulating IGF-1, which were reduced by GH deficiency and restored by systematic GH replacement. In contrast, IGF-1 levels in the CSF were decreased by GH deficiency but not restored by GH replacement. Furthermore, analysis of gene expression using microarrays and RT-PCR indicated that circulating IGF-1 levels did not modify the transcription of IGF-1 or its receptor in the hippocampus but did regulate genes that are involved in microvascular structure and function, brain development, and synaptic plasticity, which potentially support brain structures involved in cognitive function during this important developmental period. GH-deficient dwarf (dw/dw) and heterozygous (HZ) rats were identified at postnatal day 33-34. Starting from d35, dw/dw rats received subcutaneous injection of either 300µg GH (dw/dw+GH) or saline (dw/dw+sal) for 7d or 30d. HZ animals received saline for the same periods as controls. Animals (n=4/group for each time point) were sacrificed, the hippocampi were dissected, and total RNA were isolated for subsequent transcriptomic profiling.

Maternal Piwi regulates primordial germ cells to ensure the fertility of female progeny in Drosophila

Project description:PIWI proteins and their associated small noncoding piRNAs, which guide PIWI to target RNAs by base-pairing, are among the maternal components deposited into the germline of the early embryo in Drosophila. Piwi has been extensively studied in the adult ovary and testis, where it is required for transposon suppression, germline stem cell self-renewal, and fertility. Consequently, loss of Piwi in the adult ovary using piwi-null alleles or knockdown from early oogenesis results in complete sterility, limiting investigation into possible embryonic functions of maternal Piwi. In this study, we show that the maternal Piwi protein persists in the embryonic germline through gonad coalescence, suggesting that maternal Piwi can regulate germline development beyond early embryogenesis. Using a maternal knockdown strategy, we find that maternal Piwi is required for the fertility and normal gonad morphology of female, but not male, progeny. Following maternal Piwi knockdown, transposons were mildly derepressed in the early embryo but were fully repressed in the adult ovaries of progeny. Furthermore, the maternal piRNA pool is diminished, reducing the capacity of the PIWI/piRNA complex to target some zygotic genes during embryogenesis. Examination of embryonic germ cell proliferation and gene expression in the adult ovary showed that the germline of female progeny is partially masculinized upon maternal Piwi knockdown . This reveals a novel role for maternal Piwi in the germline development of female progeny and suggests that the PIWI/piRNA pathway is involved in germline sex determination in Drosophila.

Expression data from Igf-1 -/- and Igf-1+/+ mouse cochleas

Project description:Different mutations in the gene encoding humans IGF-I cause intrauterine growth retardation, postnatal growth failure, microcephaly, mental retardation, bilateral sensorineural deafness and multiple dysmorphic features. Insight into the role of IGFs in inner ear cochlear ganglion neurogenesis has come from the study of genetically modified mice. Postnatal cochlear development is severely impaired in mice Igf1-/-, which develop smaller cochlea and cochlear ganglia, an immature tectorial membrane and they display a significant decrease in the number and size of auditory neurons. We used microarrays to define the genetic signatures of Igf-1 +/+ and Igf-1-/- mouse cochea and identify the differentially expressed genes. Keywords: comparison between WT and KO
