LINE-1 antisense oligonucleotide ameliorate HGPA and WRN aging phenotype.


ABSTRACT: Constitutive heterochromatin is responsible for genome repression of DNA enriched in repetitive sequences, telomeres, and centromeres. In higher eukaryotes, constitutive  heterochromatin is mostly segregated at the nuclear periphery, where the interaction with the nuclear lamina makes the genome more resistant to transcription. During physiological and pathological premature aging, heterochromatin homeostasis is profoundly compromised. Here we show that LINE-1 (L1) RNA accumulation is an early event in both typical and atypical progeroid syndromes. L1 RNA negatively regulates Suv39H1 enzymatic activity, resulting in heterochromatin loss and onset of senescent phenotypes. Depletion of L1 RNA in cells from different progeroid syndrome patients using specific antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) restores the levels of heterochromatin epigenetic marks, preserves DNA methylation and counteracts the expression of senescence-associated genes. Moreover, systemic delivery of ASO rescues the histophysiology of all tissues and increases the lifespan of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) mouse model. Furthermore, the transcriptional profiling following L1 RNA depletion shows that pathways associated with nuclear chromatin organization, cell proliferation, and transcription regulation were enriched. Similarly, pathways associated with aging, inflammatory response, innate immune response and DNA damage were downregulated. Our results show a key role of L1 RNA in heterochromatin homeostasis in progeroid syndromes and identify a possible therapeutic approach to treat premature aging and related syndromes.
