Project description:Increased protein misfolding and aggregation are key hallmarks of ageing and many age-related diseases. As generating and maintaining a functional proteome (proteostasis) is crucial to every cellular process, this age-related decline in proteostasis is suggested to play a primary role in the breakdown of diverse cellular subsystems during ageing. Indeed, augmented proteostasis pathways are associated with extended lifespan across different species. With the ribosome as the earliest proteostasis checkpoint, decreased protein synthesis is also a conserved mechanism that extends lifespan. Yet, it remains unclear whether ageing impacts translation after initiation. Here, we use worms and yeast to investigate how ageing influences translation elongation. We show an age-dependent increase in ribosome pausing at diverse positions in coding sequences. This pausing is conserved in both worms and yeast, particularly at Arg and polybasic regions. We further show that such pausing is associated with the age-dependent aggregation of truncated nascent proteins involved in proteostasis pathways, notably aminoacyl tRNA synthetases. Moreover, we find that impairment in clearing truncated nascent proteins is associated with decreased lifespan. These data establish elongation kinetics and co-translational quality control as critical contributors of the age-related proteostasis collapse, which may precipitate the systemic decline observed during ageing.

Project description:Finding the differences in gene expression in three regions of the brai, basal ganglia, white matter, and frontal cortex, in normal, HIV infected, HIV inefected with neurocognitive impairment, and HIV infected with both neurocognitive impairment and encephalitis patients. We used microarrays to identify differentially expressed genes in normal, HIV infected, HIV inefected with neurocognitive impairment, and HIV infected with both neurocognitive impairment and encephalitis patients. Samples from three different brain regions from normal, HIV infected, HIV infected with neurocognitive impairment (HAD: HIV-associated dementia), and HIV infected with both neurocognitive impairment and encephalitis (HIVE: HIV encephalitis) patients were collected for RNA isolation and supsequent Affymetrix microarray analysis. We sought to obtain gene expression levels in different brain regions to find implication of HIV and the neurological impairment and inflammation associated with HIV infection.

Project description:Protein function is controlled by the cellular proteostasis network. Proteostasis is energetically costly and those costs must be balanced with the energy needs of other physiological functions. Hypertonic stress causes widespread protein damage in C. elegans. Suppression and management of protein damage is essential for optimal survival under hypertonic conditions. ASH chemosensory neurons allow C. elegans to detect and avoid strongly hypertonic environments. We demonstrate that gene mutations that disrupt ASH mediated hypertonic avoidance behavior or genetic ablation of ASH neurons enhance survival during hypertonic stress. Enhanced survival is not due to altered systemic volume homeostasis or organic osmolyte accumulation. Instead, loss of ASH neuron function reduces protein damage in non-neuronal cells. Improved proteostasis capacity is due in part to upregulation of genes that play important roles in managing protein damage. We propose that inhibitory signaling from ASH neurons normally suppresses expression of genes required for non-neuronal cell proteostasis. Because all cells have the capacity to sense and respond to stressors, inhibitory neuronal signaling may be important for minimizing activation of cellular stress resistance and proteostasis pathways during short duration and less extreme stressors or stressors that can be avoided by behavioral changes. Neuronal regulation of systemic proteostasis allows the nervous system to monitor environmental variables and more effectively partition finite energy resources between different organismal processes. Our studies add to a growing body of work demonstrating that intercellular communication between neuronal and non-neuronal cells plays a critical role in integrating cellular stress resistance with other organismal physiological demands and associated energy costs. mRNA expression profiling of synchronized L4 stage wild-type N2 Bristol and VC1262 osm-9(ok1677) C. elegans strains under control (51mM NaCl) and hypertonic stress (200mM NaCl).

Project description:Telomerase is best known for its role in the maintenance of telomere length and its implications for ageing and cancer. The mechanisms, kinetics and tissue-specificity underlying the protective or deleterious mechanisms of telomerase, however, remain largely unknown. Here, we sought to determine the telomerase-dependent and -independent transcriptomic changes with ageing, in the gut and brain, as examples of high and low proliferative tissues, respectively. We hypothesised this could shed light on common telomerase-dependent and -independent therapeutic targets aimed at preventing or ameliorating age-associated dysfunction in both tissues. For this, we used the zebrafish model which, similarly to humans, depends on telomerase for health- and life-span. We performed whole tissue RNA sequencing of gut and brain, in naturally aged zebrafish alongside prematurely aged telomerase null mutants (tert-/-), throughout their lifespan. Our study highlights stem cell exhaustion as the first main hallmark of ageing to be de-regulated in WT zebrafish gut and brain. Towards the end of life, altered intercellular communication becomes the main hallmark of ageing de-regulated in both gut and brain, and this is accelerated in both tissues, in the absence of telomerase. Finally, we identify 7 key gene changes common between the gut and brain at the early stages of ageing, highlighting potential early intervention therapeutic targets for preventing age-associated dysfunction in both tissues.

Project description:Proteostasis is vital for cellular health, with disruptions leading to pathologies including aging, neurodegeneration and metabolic disorders. Traditionally, proteotoxic stress responses were studied as acute reactions to various noxious factors; however, recent evidence reveals that many stress-response genes exhibit ~12-hour ultradian rhythms under physiological conditions in mammals. These rhythms, driven by an XBP1s-dependent 12h oscillator, are crucial for managing proteostasis. By exploring the chromatin landscape of the murine 12h hepatic oscillator, we identified RBBP5, a key subunit of the COMPASS complex, as an essential epigenetic regulator of proteostasis. RBBP5 is indispensable for regulating both the hepatic 12h oscillator and transcriptional response to acute proteotoxic stress, acting as a co-activator for master proteostasis transcription factor XBP1s. RBBP5 ablation leads to increased sensitivity to proteotoxic stress, chronic inflammation, and hepatic steatosis in mice, along with impaired autophagy and reduced cell survival in vitro. In humans, lower RBBP5 expression is associated with dampened adaptive stress-response gene expression and hepatic steatosis. Our findings establish RBBP5 as a critical regulator of proteostasis, essential for maintaining mammalian organismal health.

Project description:Immunologic dysfunction, mediated via monocyte activity, has been implicated in the development of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND). We hypothesized that transcriptome changes in peripheral blood monocytes relate to neurocognitive functioning in HIV+ individuals, and that such alterations could be useful as biomarkers of worsening HAND. METHODS: mRNA was isolated from the monocytes of 86 HIV+ adults and analyzed with the Illumina HT-12 v4 Expression BeadChip. Neurocognitive functioning, HAND diagnosis, and other clinical and virologic variables were determined.

Project description:The mitochondrial network forms a central hub in cellular metabolism, adapting to a vast array of environmental and cellular signals to maintain cellular homeostasis. Derangements to this network can lead to mitochondrial diseases but are also increasingly recognised to be a contributing factor in common disorders including heart failure, neurodegeneration, cancer, or the natural ageing process. Despite its central importance, little is known how the cell responds to a mitochondrial dysfunction, contributing to our lack of affective treatment strategies. Here we performed an unbiased genetic deficiency screen in the fruit fly to identify mechanisms that can rescue a lethal mitochondrial dysfunction. After screening ~40% of the fly genome, we identified 10 genes from four distinct cellular pathways that rescued the mitochondrial dysfunction upon heterozygous deletion, resulting in viable adult flies. The data presented here includes proteomic analysis of larvae of control, mutant, and rescued lines.
