Ribosomal S6 kinase 1 regulates 'inflammaging' via the senescence secretome III.

ABSTRACT: Inhibition of the nutrient-responsive mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) signalling pathway including the key downstream S6 kinase 1 (S6K1) extends lifespan and improves healthspan in mice. However, the underlying mechanisms contributing to the profound age-related benefits observed with loss of S6K1 signalling are unclear. Cellular senescence is a stable growth arrest accompanied by an inflammatory phenotype (termed the senescence-associated secretory phenotype, or SASP). Whileboth cellular senescence and SASP-mediated chronic inflammation contribute to age-related pathology the specific role of S6K1 signalling in these process have not been determined . Here, focussing on mouse liver a key target tissue for the beneficial health effects of loss of S6K1 signalling, we show that S6K1 deletion does not reduce senescence but ameliorates inflammation and immune cell infiltration in aged livers. Using human and mouse models of senescence, we demonstrated that reduced inflammation is a liver intrinsic effect associated with S6K deletion. Furthermore, gene expression analysis suggested that downregulated cGAS/STING and IRF3 activation might mediate the impaired SASP observed upon S6K deletion. Using a hepatic oncogene induced senescence model, we showed in vivo that S6K1 deletion results in reduced IRF3 activation, impaired production of cytokines such as IL1 and reduced immune infiltration. Overall, deletion of S6K reduces inflammation in the liver suggesting that suppression of the inflammatory SASP by S6K could contribute to explain the beneficial effects of inhibiting these pathways on healthspan and lifespan.

Project description:Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) and therapy-induced senescence (TIS), while tumor-suppressive, also promote procarcinogenic effects by activating the DNA damage response (DDR), which in turn induces inflammation. This inflammatory response prominently includes an array of cytokines known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Previous observations link the transcription-associated methyltransferase and oncoprotein MLL1 to the DDR, leading us to investigate the role of MLL1 in SASP expression. Our findings reveal direct MLL1 epigenetic control over proproliferative cell cycle genes: MLL1 inhibition represses expression of proproliferative cell cycle regulators required for DNA replication and DDR activation, thus disabling SASP expression. Strikingly, however, these effects of MLL1 inhibition on SASP gene expression do not impair OIS and, furthermore, abolish the ability of the SASP to enhance cancer cell proliferation. More broadly, MLL1 inhibition also reduces Ã¢Â?Â?SASP-likeÃ¢Â?Â? inflammatory gene expression from cancer cells in vitro and in vivo independently of senescence. Taken together, these data demonstrate that MLL1 inhibition may be a powerful and effective strategy for inducing cancerous growth arrest through the direct epigenetic regulation of proliferation-promoting genes and the avoidance of deleterious OIS- or TIS-related tumor secretomes, which can promote both drug resistance and tumor progression. This study examines the genome-wide distribution of gH2A.x and H3K4me3 by chIP-seq, using input and whole histone subunit H3 (respectively) as controls for local sonication efficiency bias. Each of the four chIPs has a single replicate each in (i) IMR90 fibroblasts transfected with a scramble control vector, (ii) the same cells subject to oncogene-induced senescence by stimulation of H-Ras V12, and (iii) in OIS cells with a shRNA targeting MLL1. Additionally, gH2A.x and input were sequenced with another replicate in control and OIS cells (both scramble control).
