Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE4093: Resveratrol treatment of daf-16 mutant C. elegans GSE4094: N2 worms treated with Resveratrol GSE4095: Sir-2.1 low copy transgenic Abstract: C. elegans SIR-2.1, a member of the Sir-2 family of NAD(+)-dependent protein deacetylases, has been shown to regulate nematode aging via the insulin/IGF pathway transcription factor daf-16. Treatment of C. elegans with the small molecule resveratrol, however, extends life span in a manner fully dependent upon sir-2.1, but independent of daf-16. Microarray analysis of worms treated with resveratrol demonstrates the transcriptional induction of a family of genes encoding prion-like glutamine/asparagine-rich proteins involved in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response to unfolded proteins. RNA interference of abu-11, a member of this ER stress gene family, abolishes resveratrol-mediated life span extension, and overexpression of abu-11 extends the life span of transgenic animals. Furthermore, SIR-2.1 normally represses transcription of abu-11 and other ER stress gene family members, indicating that resveratrol extends life span by inhibiting sir-2.1-mediated repression of ER stress genes. Our findings demonstrate that abu-11 and other members of its ER stress gene family are positive determinants of C. elegans life span. Refer to individual Series

Project description:Candida albicans repetitive elements display epigenetic diversity and plasticity. This experiment inspects RNA levels on both wild- type (BWP17 strain) and sir double deletion mutant strain in order to detect changes in gene expression associated with SIR2-dependent heterochromatin patterns.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression in species ranging from plants to mammals. Unraveling the complex networks of miRNA-mediated regulation of gene expression requires the ability to identify the mRNA targets of individual miRNAs in native cellular contexts. Here we describe RIP-SIR, an unbiased genome-wide method for identifying interactions between endogenous miRNAs and their targets in almost any tissue or cell type.

Project description:Biogenesis of membrane proteins is controlled by the protein homeostasis (proteostasis) network. We have been focusing on protein quality control of γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter-gated ion channels in mammalian central nervous system. Proteostasis deficiency in GABAA receptors causes loss of their surface expression and thus function on the plasma membrane, leading to epilepsy and other neurological diseases. One well-characterized example is the A322D mutation in the α1 subunit that causes its extensive misfolding and expedited degradation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), resulting in autosomal dominant juvenile myoclonic epilepsy. We aimed to correct misfolding of the α1(A322D) subunits in the ER as an approach to restore their functional surface expression. Here, we showed that application of BIX, a specific, potent ER resident HSP70 family protein BiP activator, significantly increases the surface expression of the mutant receptors in human HEK293T cells and neuronal SH-SY5Y cells. BIX attenuates the degradation of α1(A322D) and enhances their forward trafficking and function. Furthermore, because BiP is one major target of the two unfolded protein response (UPR) pathways: ATF6 and IRE1, we continued to demonstrate that modest activations of the ATF6 pathway and IRE1 pathway genetically enhance the plasma membrane trafficking of the α1(A322D) protein in HEK293T cells. Our results underlie the potential of regulating the ER proteostasis network to correct loss-of-function protein conformational diseases.

Project description:Chondrocyte senescence has recently been proposed as a key pathogenic mechanism in the etiology of osteoarthritis (OA). Nevertheless, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying chondrocyte senescence remain poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, we conducted an investigation into the involvement of Sirtuin 4 (Sirt4) in chondrocyte senescence. Our experimental findings revealed a downregulation of Sirt4 expression in TBHP-induced senescent chondrocytes in vitro, as well as in mouse OA cartilage. Additionally, we observed that the knockdown of Sirt4 in chondrocytes promoted cellular senescence and cartilage degradation, while the overexpression of Sirt4 protected the cells against TBHP-mediated senescence of chondrocytes and cartilage degradation. Moreover, our findings revealed elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), abnormal mitochondrial morphology, compromised mitochondrial membrane potential, and reduced ATP production in Sirt4 knockdown chondrocytes, indicative of mitochondrial dysfunction. Conversely, Sirt4 overexpression successfully mitigated TBHP-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Further analysis revealed that Sirt4 downregulation impaired the cellular capacity to eliminate damaged mitochondria by inhibiting Pink1 in chondrocytes, thereby enhancing the accumulation of ROS and facilitating chondrocyte senescence. Notably, the overexpression of Pink1 counteracted the effects of Sirt4 knockdown on mitochondrial dysfunction. Importantly, our study demonstrated the promise of gene therapy employing a lentiviral vector encoding mouse Sirt4, as it successfully preserved the integrity of articular cartilage in mouse models of OA. In conclusion, our findings provide compelling evidence that the overexpression of Sirt4 enhances mitophagy, restores mitochondrial function, and protects against chondrocyte senescence, thereby offering a novel therapeutic target and potential strategy for the treatment of OA.

Project description:Memory loss is the signature feature of Alzheimer's disease, and therapies that prevent or delay its onset are urgently needed. Effective preventive strategies likely offer the greatest and most widespread benefits. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors increase histone acetylation and enhance memory and synaptic plasticity. We evaluated the efficacy of nicotinamide, a competitive inhibitor of the sirtuins or class III NAD(+)-dependent HDACs in 3xTg-AD mice, and found that it restored cognitive deficits associated with pathology. Nicotinamide selectively reduces a specific phospho-species of tau (Thr231) that is associated with microtubule depolymerization, in a manner similar to inhibition of SirT1. Nicotinamide also dramatically increased acetylated alpha-tubulin, a primary substrate of SirT2, and MAP2c, both of which are linked to increased microtubule stability. Reduced phosphoThr231-tau was related to a reduction of monoubiquitin-conjugated tau, suggesting that this posttranslationally modified form of tau may be rapidly degraded. Overexpression of a Thr231-phospho-mimic tau in vitro increased clearance and decreased accumulation of tau compared with wild-type tau. These preclinical findings suggest that oral nicotinamide may represent a safe treatment for AD and other tauopathies, and that phosphorylation of tau at Thr231 may regulate tau stability.
