Project description:The dedifferentiation of somatic cells into a pluripotent state by cellular reprogramming coincides with a reversal of age-associated molecular hallmarks. Although transcription factor induced cellular reprogramming has been shown to ameliorate these aging phenotypes in human cells and extend health and lifespan in mice, translational applications of this approach are still limited. More recently, chemical reprogramming via small molecule cocktails have demonstrated a similar ability to induce pluripotency in vitro, however, its potential impact on aging is unknown. Here, we demonstrated that chemical-induced partial reprogramming can improve key drivers of aging including genomic instability and epigenetic alterations in aged human cells. Moreover, we identified an optimized combination of two reprogramming molecules sufficient to induce the amelioration of additional aging phenotypes including cellular senescence and oxidative stress. Importantly, in vivo application of this two-chemical combination significantly extended C. elegans lifespan and healthspan. Together, these data demonstrate that improvement of key drivers of aging and lifespan extension is possible via chemical-induced partial reprogramming, opening a path towards future translational applications.

Project description:Human embryonic stem cells can replicate indefinitely while maintaining their undifferentiated state and, therefore, are immortal in culture. This capacity may demand avoidance of any imbalance in protein homeostasis (proteostasis) that would otherwise compromise stem cell identity. Here we show that human pluripotent stem cells exhibit enhanced assembly of the TRiC/CCT complex, a chaperonin that facilitates the folding of 10% of the proteome. We find that ectopic expression of a single subunit (CCT8) is sufficient to increase TRiC/CCT assembly. Moreover, increased TRiC/CCT complex is required to avoid aggregation of mutant Huntingtin protein. We further show that increased expression of CCT8 in somatic tissues extends Caenorhabditis elegans lifespan in a TRiC/CCT-dependent manner. Ectopic expression of CCT8 also ameliorates the age-associated demise of proteostasis and corrects proteostatic deficiencies in worm models of Huntington’s disease. Our results suggest proteostasis is a common principle that links organismal longevity with hESC immortality.

Project description:Activation of Sirt1, the mammalian homolog of an NAD+-dependent deacetylase known to modulate lifespan in lower organisms, is thought to hold promise as a strategy for delaying aging in mammals. SRT1720, a novel compound developed as a specific and potent activator of Sirt1, has shown promising effects to glucose homeostasis in short-term studies of rats and mice. Here we show SRT1720 extends both mean and maximum lifespan of mice fed a high-fat diet and has concrete benefits to health including reduced liver steatosis and increased insulin sensitivity and locomotor activity. Gene expression profiles and markers of inflammation and apoptosis were also restored to levels more reflective of standard diet controls. Furthermore, the benefits incurred by SRT1720 occurred in the absence of any observable toxicity. The current findings provide hope that safe and effective treatments may be developed to mitigate age-related diseases and enhance lifespan in humans.

The current findings provide hope that safe and effective treatments may be developed to mitigate age-related diseases and enhance lifespan in humans. Male C57BL/6J mice obtained at 12 weeks of age were maintained on a standard purified mouse diet (AIN-93G) until 56 weeks of age prior to the start of the experiment. Beginning at 56 weeks of age, the SD group was fed a standard AIN-93G diet for the duration of the study. Three separate groups were placed on a high-fat diet (HFD) (AIN-93G modified by the addition of hydrogenated coconut oil to provide 60% of calories from fat) or HFD + 30mg/kg body weight SRT1720 (HFD-L) or 100mg/kg body weight SRT1720 (HFD-H) and remained on those diets throughout the study. All mice were fed ad libitum. Food intake and body weight were measured biweekly for the duration of the study.

Project description:Transcriptional regulation plays an important role in the control of gene expression during aging. However, translation efficiency likely plays an equally important role in determining protein abundance, but has been relatively under studied in this context. Here we used RNA-seq and ribosome profiling to investigate the role of translational regulation in lifespan extension by CAN1 gene deletion in yeast. Through comparison of the transcriptional and translational changes in cells lacking CAN1 with other long-lived mutants, we were able to identify critical regulatory factors, including transcription factors and mRNA-binding proteins, that coordinate transcriptional and translational responses. Together, our data support a model in which deletion of CAN1 extends replicative lifespan through increased translation of proteins that facilitate cellular response to stress. This study extends our understanding of the importance of translational control in regulating stress resistance and longevity.

Project description:The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) has been associated with long lifespan across metazoans. In Caenorhabditis elegans, mild developmental mitochondrial stress activates UPRmt reporters and extends lifespan. We show that similar developmental stress is necessary and sufficient to extend Drosophila lifespan, and identify Phosphoglycerate Mutase 5 (PGAM5) as a mediator of this response. Developmental mitochondrial stress leads to activation of FoxO, via Apoptosis Signal-regulating Kinase 1 (ASK1) and Jun-N-terminal Kinase (JNK). This activation persists into adulthood and induces a select set of chaperones, many of which have been implicated in lifespan extension in flies. Persistent FoxO activation can be reversed by a high- protein diet in adulthood, through mTORC1 and GCN-2 activity. Accordingly, the observed lifespan extension is prevented on a high-protein diet and in FoxO-null flies. The diet-sensitivity of this pathway has important implications for interventions that seek to engage the UPRmt to improve metabolic health and longevity.

Project description:Sulforaphane (SFN), an organosulfur isothiocyanate derived from cruciferous vegetables, has been shown to inhibit inflammation, oxidative stress, and cancer cell growth; it has also been shown to increase the lifespan of the C. elegans nematode strain N2. Here, we tested the lifespan effects of SFN following the standard experimental procedures of the Caenorhabditis Intervention Testing Program (CITP). The CITP, a multi-institute research consortium, aims to identify chemical interventions that can robustly and reproducibly promote health and lifespan. To investigate the functional targets of SFN, we employed bulk RNA-Seq at a variety of ages to create a “transcriptional aging clock” using control individuals and then tested how global patterns of gene expression are altered under SFN treatment. Multi-dimensional scaling analysis of the transcriptome revealed transcriptional age under SFN treatment was similar to control individuals approximately four days younger, representing a nearly 20% shift relative to overall lifespan. These results support the idea that robust longevity-extending interventions can act via global effects across the organism, as revealed at a functional level via changes in gene expression.
