Transcriptional and epigenetic landscape of the mouse intestine during aging identifies key molecular drivers of aging -associated dysfunctions and diseases [scRNA-seq].

ABSTRACT: Aging is a complex multifactorial process leading to the loss of tissue/organ functionality and to an increase in disease risk. Aging-related intestinal dysfunctions include loss of barrier integrity, altered stress responses, nutrient malabsorption, and cancer formation. Many molecular mechanisms related to dysfunction and diseases are well-known (e.g. in cancer), however how aging impact on them before the occurrence of dysfunctions and diseases is poorly understood. In this study, we applied a multi-layered omics-approach to characterize the transcriptional and the epigenetic landscape of mouse intestinal epithelium during aging. We found gender and cell-type specific transcriptional and epigenetic alterations on key pathways and genes linked to intestinal dysfunctions, stem cell aging, organismal lifespan and cancer. Moreover, we identified a switch in the composition of the old intestinal stem cell subpopulations, represented by a drift towards a more secretory lineage committed (and less stem) state accompanied by functional epigenetic alterations.

Transcriptional and epigenetic landscape of the mouse intestine during aging identifies key molecular drivers of aging -associated dysfunctions and diseases [Total RNA-seq - crypts]

In vitro grown organoids treated with IFNγ mimicking in vivo intestinal crypts cells aging

Project description:Aging-related intestinal dysfunctions include loss of barrier integrity, altered stress responses, nutrient malabsorption, and cancer formation. Influence of aging on intestinal stem cell (ISC) and their niches can explain underlying causes for perturbation in ISC function during aging. However, molecular mechanisms for such decrease in functionality of ISCs during aging remain largely undetermined. Using different transcriptome-wide approaches including single-cell RNA-seq from intestinal crypt cells and immune cells of lamina propria, we characterized age-specific transcriptional programs in the intestinal epithelium. We found that aged ISCs strongly upregulate antigen presenting pathway genes and over-express secretory lineage marker genes leading to a compromised homeostasis of the intestinal epithelium. Mechanistically, increase of interferon gamma (IFNgamma) release by cytotoxic CD4 T cells and innate lymphoid type 2 cells (ILC2) in lamina propria of aged intestine lead to induction of Stat1 in ISCs that trigger MHC class II expression and prime them towards a secretory fate. Altogether these findings, clarify the cross talk between immune cells and ISC in aged intestine and identified the IFNgamma-Stat1-MHCII axis as the key gene network driving intestinal inflammaging phenotype and loss of tissue homeostasis. Our data provide basic and complementary knowledge for the development of therapeutic intervention for aging-related intestinal dysfunction and diseases.

Region-specific proteome changes of the intestinal epithelium during aging and dietary restriction

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.

Atlas of the aging mouse colon

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.
