Project description:Mammalian aging is characterized by the progressive loss of tissue integrity and function manifesting in ill health and increased risk for developing multiple chronic conditions. Accumulation of senescent cells in aging tissues partly contributes to this decline as targeted depletion of senescent cells in vivo ameliorates many age-related phenotypes. However, the fundamental molecular mechanisms responsible for the decline of cellular health and fitness during senescence and aging are largely unknown. In this study, we investigated whether chromatin-mediated loss of transcriptional fidelity, known to contribute to fitness and survival in yeast and worms, also occurs during human cellular senescence and mouse aging. Our findings reveal that aberrant transcription initiation inside genes is widespread in senescence and aging. It co-occurs with changes in the chromatin landscape and formation of non-canonical transcription start sites. Interventions that alter spurious transcripts have dramatic consequences on cellular health primarily affecting intracellular signal transduction pathways. We propose that spurious transcription is a conserved hallmark of aging that promotes a noisy transcriptome and a degradation of coherent transcriptional networks.

Project description:Cellular senescence disables the proliferation of damaged cells and it is relevant for cancer and aging. Here, we show that cellular senescence occurs during mammalian embryonic development. Specifically, we have focused on the mouse regressing mesonephros and the endolymphatic sac of the inner ear. Senescence is characterized by SAM-NM-2G activity, heterochromatinization, and proliferative arrest. Mechanistically, developmentally-programmed senescence at the mesonephros and endolymphatic sac is strictly dependent on p21, but independent of DNA damage, p53 or other cell cycle inhibitors, and it is regulated by the TGFM-NM-2/SMAD and PI3K/FOXO pathways. Developmentally-programmed senescence is followed by macrophage infiltration and clearance of senescent cells. Abrogation of senescence by p21 deletion is only partially compensated by apoptosis and originates detectable developmental abnormalities. Importantly, high levels of p21 are also associated to the regressing mesonephros and endolymphatic sac in human embryos. These findings place cellular senescence as a relevant morphogenic process during embryonic development. We microdissected mesonephric tubules from senescent (WT) and non-senescent (p21-null) embryos to get information about this new senescence that occurs during embryogenesis.

Project description:Senescence is a cellular state linked to aging and age-onset disease across many mammalian species. Acutely, senescent cells promote wound healing and prevent tumor formation; but they are also pro-inflammatory, thus chronically exacerbate tissue decline. While senescent cells are active targets for anti-aging therapy, why these cells form in vivo, how they affect tissue aging, and the impact of their elimination remain unclear. Here we identify naturally-occurring senescent glia in aged Drosophila brains and decipher their origin and influence. Using AP1 activity to screen for senescence, we determine that senescent glia can appear in response to neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction. In turn, senescent glia promote lipid accumulation in non-senescent glia; similar effects are seen in senescent human fibroblasts in culture. Targeting AP1 activity in senescent glia mitigates senescence biomarkers, extends fly life and health span, and prevents lipid accumulation. However, these benefits come at the cost of increased oxidative damage in the brain, and neuronal mitochondrial function remains poor. Altogether, our results map the trajectory of naturally-occurring senescent glia in vivo and indicate that these cells link key aging phenomena: mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid accumulation.
