Project description:Epithelial cells play an important role in the protection of the colon mucosa from the resident microbiota and are involved in the initiation and maintenance of intestinal inflammation. LMD is a technique that allows the extraction of specific cell types, such as colonic epithelial cells, to analyse gene expression. LMD of colon epithelial cells followed by microarray analysis could be of more value than microarray analysis of intact colon for determining which pathways are active in the colon mucosa in the early and late stages of inflammation due to increased sensitivity to changes in specific cell populations. An experiment was performed using microarray analysis of intact colon samples and microdissected colon epithelial cell samples from Il10-/- and C57BL/6J mice at 6 and 12 weeks of age to study the molecular changes that occur in early and late inflammation stages in colon epithelium of a mouse model of colitis. Results showed that intact colon and colon epithelial cell gene expression profiles were similar in terms of pathways between Il10-/- and C57BL/6J mice at 12 weeks of age and between Il10-/- mice at 12 and 6 weeks of age. More immune-related pathways were identified at 6 weeks of age in epithelial cells than intact colon. This suggests that LMD and targeting of specific cell types may be of particular use when studying the early stages of inflammation before the intestinal morphology is detectably altered, by increasing analysis sensitivity to mucosal gene expression changes. 2x2 factorial with two tissue types analysed. Two strains of mouse (Il10 knockout mouse and the background strain C57BL/6J) were sampled at 2 timepoints (6 and 12 weeks of age) and intact proximal colon and colon epithelium harvested from each mouse (6 mice per group except for group colon epithelium C57 mouse 12 weeks where only 5 samples reached quality control standards).

Project description:The intestinal epithelium is our first line of defense against infections of the gut and the plasticity in cellular differentiation of the intestinal epithelium is an important part of this response. Here we sequenced the colon intestinal epithelium from mice infected with Citrobacter rodentium to determine how the intestinal epithelium adapts in the context of an infection. By comparing these data to small intestinal organoids treated with cytokines (see related accessions) we determine that the intestinal epithelial response to C. rodentium infection correspond to a type III infection driven by IL22.

Project description:Colon cancer is one of the leading causes of death within the western world and is linked to the aging of the colon. The disease presents differently between men and women, developing in different parts of the colon and often with a different morphology. The colonic epithelium is a rapidly renewing tissue, tasked with absorption of water and nutrients, interacting with a wide array of intestinal microbes. The gut-associated lymphoid tissue houses the majority of all immune cells. These immune cells interact with and help regulate the activity of epithelial cells. However, not much is known whether compartment-specific changes occur during aging and how said changes could impact the epithelium. Here we show that both epithelial and immune cells differ significantly between colonic compartments and experience age-related changes, with the possible causal interactions. We found a shift in the absorptive-secretory cell balance, the decrease in colonocytes possibly linked to age-associated malabsorption and intestinal disturbances. We demonstrate marked changes in the aging of the immune cells with regard to populations and interactions with epithelial cells, linking aged immune cell produced cytokines (Ifn-γ, Il1B) and the aging of colonic epithelium, which lines up with observations of inflammation causing or exacerbating age-associated gut disfunctions, such as colon cancer. Our results provide new insights into the normal and age-associated states of the colon. We anticipate our work will provide a foundation for further inquiry not only into diseases of the colon (even outside the realm of aging research) but developmental research as well.

Project description:To identify the precise molecular mechanisms that could contribute to the increase in colon carcinogenesis, microarray gene expression analysis was performed on colon RNA isolated from 5-week-old VhlF/F and VhlΔIE, VhlΔIE/Apcmin/+ and VhlF/F/Apcmin/+ mice. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is a key modulator of the transcriptional response to hypoxia and is increased in colon cancer. However, the role of HIF in colon carcinogenesis in vivo remains unclear. Intestinal epithelium-specific disruption of the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor protein (VHL) resulted in constitutive HIF signaling, and increased HIF expression augmented colon tumorigenesis in the Apcmin/+ intestinal tumor model. Intestine-specific disruption of Vhl increased colon tumor multiplicity and progression from adenomas to carcinomas. These effects were ameliorated in mice with double disruption of Vhl and Hif-2α. Activation of HIF signaling resulted in increased cell survival in normal colon tissue, however tumor apoptosis was not affected. Interestingly, a robust activation of cyclin D1 was observed in tumors of Apcmin/+ mice in which HIF-2α was activated in the intestine. Consistent with this result, BrdU incorporation indicated that cellular proliferation was increased in colon tumors following HIF activation. Further analysis demonstrated that dysregulation of the intestinal iron absorption transporter divalent metal transporter-1 (DMT-1) was a critical event in HIF-2α-mediated colon carcinogenesis. These data provide a mechanistic basis for the widely reported link between iron accumulation and colon cancer risk. Together, our findings demonstrate that a chronic increase in HIF-2α in the colon initiates pro-tumorigenic signaling which may have important implications in developing preventive and therapeutic strategies for colon cancer. Global gene expression profiling in colon RNAs isolated from 5-week-old VhlF/F (n=4, Shah 001), VhlF/F/Apcmin/+(n=3, Shah 003), VhlΔIE (n=3, Shah 002) and VhlΔIE/Apcmin/+ mice (n=5, Shah 004).

Project description:The intestinal epithelium has a high turnover and constantly renews itself through proliferation of intestinal crypt cells, which depends on insufficiently characterized signals from the microenvironment. Here we show that colonic macrophages were located directly adjacent to epithelial crypt cells in mice, where they metabolically supported epithelial cell proliferation in an mTORC1-dependent manner. Specifically, mTORC1 activation in macrophages protected against colitis-induced intestinal damage and induced the synthesis of the polyamines spermidine and spermine. Epithelial cells ingested these polyamines and rewired their cellular metabolism for optimizing proliferation and defense. Notably, spermine directly stimulated proliferation of colon epithelial cells and colon organoids. Genetic interference with polyamine production in macrophages altered global polyamine levels in the colon and modified epithelial cell proliferation. Our results suggest that macrophages act as “commensals” that provide metabolic support to promote efficient self-renewal of the colon epithelium.

Project description:The small intestine is responsible for nutrient absorption and it is one of the most important interfaces between the environment and our body. During aging, changes in the structure of the epithelium lead to food malabsorption and reduced barrier function thus increasing disease risk in aging. The molecular drivers of these alterations remain poorly understood. Here, we compared the proteomes of small intestinal crypts from mice across different anatomical regions and age groups. We found that aging alters epithelial immune responses, metabolic networks and stem cell proliferation, and it is accompanied by a region-dependent skewing in the cellular composition of the intestinal epithelium. Of note, a short period of dietary restriction followed by re-feeding partially restores the epithelium to a youthful state by promoting the differentiation of intestinal stem cells (ISCs) towards the secretory lineage. Using in vitro and in vivo studies, we identify Hmgcs2 (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthetase 2) – the rate limiting enzyme in the synthesis of ketone bodies – as a modulator of ISCs differentiation, which responds to dietary changes. This study provides an atlas of age-dependent proteome changes in defined regions of the intestinal epithelium and characterizes how young and old mice adapt to drastic changes of diet, such as dietary restriction and re-feeding.

Project description:McAuley2012 - Whole-body Cholesterol Metabolism
Lipid metabolism has a key role to play in human longevity and healthy aging. A whole-body mathematical model of cholesterol metabolism that explores the changes in both the rate of intestinal cholesterol absorption and the hepatic rate of clearance of LDL-C from the plasma, has been presented here. The model showed that of these two mechanisms, changes to the rate of LDL-C removal from the plasma with age had the most significant effect on cholesterol metabolism.
The original SBML model file was generated using MathSBML 2.5.1.
This model is described in the article:

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Global demographic changes have stimulated marked interest in the process of ageing. There has been, and will continue to be, an unrelenting rise in the number of the oldest old ( >85 years of age). Together with an ageing population there comes an increase in the prevalence of age related disease. Of the diseases of ageing, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has by far the highest prevalence. It is regarded that a finely tuned lipid profile may help to prevent CVD as there is a long established relationship between alterations to lipid metabolism and CVD risk. In fact elevated plasma cholesterol, particularly Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) has consistently stood out as a risk factor for having a cardiovascular event. Moreover it is widely acknowledged that LDL-C may rise with age in both sexes in a wide variety of groups. The aim of this work was to use a whole-body mathematical model to investigate why LDL-C rises with age, and to test the hypothesis that mechanistic changes to cholesterol absorption and LDL-C removal from the plasma are responsible for the rise. The whole-body mechanistic nature of the model differs from previous models of cholesterol metabolism which have either focused on intracellular cholesterol homeostasis or have concentrated on an isolated area of lipoprotein dynamics. The model integrates both current and previously published data relating to molecular biology, physiology, ageing and nutrition in an integrated fashion.
RESULTS: The model was used to test the hypothesis that alterations to the rate of cholesterol absorption and changes to the rate of removal of LDL-C from the plasma are integral to understanding why LDL-C rises with age. The model demonstrates that increasing the rate of intestinal cholesterol absorption from 50% to 80% by age 65 years can result in an increase of LDL-C by as much as 34mg/dL in a hypothetical male subject. The model also shows that decreasing the rate of hepatic clearance of LDL-C gradually to 50% by age 65 years can result in an increase of LDL-C by as much as 116mg/dL.
CONCLUSIONS: Our model clearly demonstrates that of the two putative mechanisms that have been implicated in the dysregulation of cholesterol metabolism with age, alterations to the removal rate of plasma LDL-C has the most significant impact on cholesterol metabolism and small changes to the number of hepatic LDL receptors can result in a significant rise in LDL-C. This first whole-body systems based model of cholesterol balance could potentially be used as a tool to further improve our understanding of whole-body cholesterol metabolism and its dysregulation with age. Furthermore, given further fine tuning the model may help to investigate potential dietary and lifestyle regimes that have the potential to mitigate the effects aging has on cholesterol metabolism.
