Project description:FoxO transcription factors promote longevity across taxa. How they do so is poorly understood. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the A- and F-isoforms of the FoxO transcription factor DAF-16 extend life span in the context of reduced DAF-2 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGFR) signaling. To elucidate the mechanistic basis for DAF-16/FoxO-dependent life span extension, we performed an integrative analysis of isoform-specific daf-16/FoxO mutants. In contrast to previous studies suggesting that DAF-16F plays a more prominent role in life span control than DAF-16A, isoform-specific daf-16/FoxO mutant phenotypes and whole transcriptome profiling revealed a predominant role for DAF-16A over DAF-16F in life span control, stress resistance, and target gene regulation. Integration of these data sets enabled the prioritization of a subset of 92 DAF-16/FoxO target genes for functional interrogation. Among 29 genes tested, two DAF-16A-specific target genes significantly influenced longevity. Our discovery of new longevity genes underscores the efficacy of our integrative strategy while providing a general framework for identifying specific downstream gene regulatory events that contribute substantially to transcription factor functions. As FoxO transcription factors have conserved functions in promoting longevity and may be dysregulated in aging-related diseases, these findings promise to illuminate fundamental principles underlying aging in animals.

Project description:Mild deficits in mitochondrial function have been shown to increase lifespan in multiple species including worms, flies and mice. Here, we study three C. elegans mitochondrial mutants (clk-1, isp-1 and nuo-6) to identify overlapping genetic pathways that contribute to their longevity. We find that genes regulated by the FOXO transcription factor DAF-16 are upregulated in all three strains, and that the transcriptional changes present in these worms overlap significantly with the long-lived insulin-IGF1 signaling pathway mutant daf-2. We show that DAF-16 and multiple DAF-16 interacting proteins (MATH-33, IMB-2, CST-1/2, BAR-1) are required for the longevity of all three mitochondrial mutants. Our results suggest that the activation of DAF-16 in these mutants results from elevated levels of reactive oxygen species. Overall, this work reveals an overlapping genetic pathway required for longevity in three mitochondrial mutants, and, combined with previous work, demonstrates that DAF-16 is a downstream mediator of lifespan extension in multiple pathways of longevity.

Project description:FoxO transcription factors can promote longevity in invertebrates and mammals. In C.elegans, the FoxO family member DAF-16 is required for lifespan extension in the contexts of daf-2/IGFR mutation and germline ablation. The daf-16 genomic locus encodes three distinct groups of transcripts (a,b, and d/f/h). In animals with reduced insulin signaling or ablated germlines, mutations that reduce daf-16a and d/f/h levels without affecting daf-16b reduce lifespan to the same extent as daf-16 null mutations. We reasoned that identifying a set of targets of the daf-16a and d/f/h isoforms that are differentially regulated in two contexts of reduced insulin signaling and in germline ablated animals would enrich for the daf-16 transcriptional targets that are required for longevity. We identified targets that were differentially regulated in daf-2(e1368) and daf-2(e1370) mutants relative to wild-type, and differentially regulated in the opposite direction from WT in compound mutants with both daf-16(mg54), which eliminates the a and d/f/h isoforms, and daf-16(mu86) which is a predicted null allele. We performed a similar analysis in glp-1(e2141) germline ablated animals (omitting the wild-type comparison). We then identified daf-16 targets associated with longevity (dal genes) which were found in all three sets of comparisons.
