Potential role of Bcl2 in lipid metabolism and synaptic dysfunction of age-related hearing loss

ABSTRACT: Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a prevalent disease that affects millions of people worldwide. BCL-2 gene plays a tremendous role in cellular senescence, and it was confirmed that the BCL-2 family is closely associated with neurological disorders and ARHL. In addition to modulating apoptosis and oxidative stress, as well as other effects, this study we report here that BCL-2 plays a crucial position in regulating phospholipid and lipid metabolism in the developing cochlear tissues of rats and a sensory epithelial cell line(OC1), including the cholesterol synthesis pathway that is differentially expressed by genes such as LSS,NSDHL, and CYP51, which further demonstrates the mechanism of the action of BCL-2 in hair cells. In conclusion our data provide a new molecular framework for the regulatory mechanism of BCL-2 down-regulation in senescent cells. These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms of ARHL and may set the stage for new therapeutic approaches for this prevalent age-related disease.

Redox activation of excitatory pathways in auditory neurons as mechanism of age-related hearing loss

Project description:Age-related hearing (ARHL) loss affects a large part of the human population with a major impact on our aging societies. Yet, underlying mechanisms are not understood, and no validated therapy or prevention exists. NADPH oxidases (NOX), are important sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cochlea and might therefore be involved in the pathogenesis of ARHL. Here we investigate ARHL in a mouse model. Wild type mice showed early loss of hearing and cochlear integrity, while animals deficient in the NOX subunit p22phox remained unaffected up to six months. Genes of the excitatory pathway were down-regulated in p22phox-deficient auditory neurons. Our results demonstrate that NOX activity leads to upregulation of genes of the excitatory pathway, to excitotoxic cochlear damage, and ultimately to ARHL. In the absence of functional NOXs, aging mice conserve hearing and cochlear morphology. Our study offers new insights into pathomechanisms and future therapeutic targets of ARHL.

Long-term NAD+ supplementation prevents the progression of age-related hearing loss in mice

Project description:Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the most common sensory disabling condition associated with aging in humans. Yet, there are still no approved measures for preventing or treating this debilitating condition. With its slow progression, continuous and safe treatment approaches are critical for ARHL treatment. Nicotinamide Riboside (NR), a NAD+ precursor, is well-tolerated even for long-term use and is already shown effective in various disease models including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease. However, its beneficial impact on ARHL is not known. In this study, we investigated transcriptomic profile in the cochlea of the mice (mtKeima strain) that are treated with NR for 10 months vs. non-treated.

Potential roles for lncRNA Mirg/Foxp1 in an ARHL model created using C57BL/6J mice hearing research

Project description:Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is involved in the hair cell apoptosis, but the underlying mechanism of hair cell apoptosis remains unclear. Here, we explored expression profiles of lncRNAs and mRNAs in an ARHL mouse model by using RNA sequencing and found that the cell apoptosis signaling pathway was activated in the cochlea tissues of old mice compared with those of young mice. We further found that lncRNA Mirg was most correlated with the cell apoptosis signaling pathway by the coexpression analysis. LncRNA Mirg was increased in the cochlea tissues of old mice compared with those of young mice, and its overexpression promoted hair cell apoptosis. H2O2-induced oxidative stress increased hair cell apoptosis by upregulating lncRNA Mirg. Furthermore, the expression of lncRNA Mirg and Foxp1 had the maximal correlation coefficient in the cochlea tissues of old mice, and lncRNA Mirg promoted hair cell apoptosis by increasing Foxp1 expression. In conclusion, we identified that oxidative stress-induced lncRNA Mirg promoted hair cell apoptosis via increasing Foxp1 expression, and these suggest that the lncRNA Mirg/Foxp1 signal may be a potential therapeutic target for ARHL.

Molecular changes associated with biological aging of cochlear hair cells

Project description:Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a progressive sensorineural hearing loss that occurs as people get older. As many as 35% to 50% of the population aged between 65 and 75 have ARHL. Although age-related changes in the central auditory system can contribute to hearing impairment, degeneration of the mechanosensitive hair cells in the cochlea is the prevalent cause of ARHL. The molecular mechanisms of hair cell aging are largely unknown. To provide a comprehensive dataset of age-related genes and pathways in hair cells, we individually collected inner and outer hair cells, the two types of sensory receptor cells in the cochlea, from 9- and 26-month-old CBA/J mice and performed cell type-specific transcriptomic analysis. Our analysis showed a significant reduction of the expression of genes related to hair cell structure and function such as Tmc1, Kcnq4, Kcnj13, Slc7a14, Slc17a8, Chrna9/Chrna10, and Slc26a5. Our hair cell-specific transcriptome analysis provides a rich resource for mechanistic studies of biological aging of cochlear hair cells.

Bcl2-induced vascular maturation

Project description:Overexpression of a caspase-resistant form of Bcl-2 (D34A) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (EC) implanted into immunodeficient mice promotes the maturation of human EC-lined microvessels invested by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) of mouse origin. In contrast, EC implants not overexpressing Bcl-2 form only simple, uncoated EC tubes. Here we compare the phenotypes of vessels formed in vivo and the transcriptomes in vitro of EC expressing different forms of Bcl-2. Wild type Bcl-2, like the caspase resistant D34A Bcl-2 mutant, is anti-apoptotic in vitro and promotes VSMC recruitment in vivo, whereas a G145E mutant that has diminished anti-apoptotic activity in vitro does not promote vessel maturation in vivo. The D34A and wild type forms of Bcl-2, but not the G145E mutant form of Bcl-2 significantly regulate RNA transcripts previously associated with EC-VSMC interactions and VSMC biology, including matrix Gla protein, insulin like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-2, matrix metaloproteinase-14 (MMP14), ADAM17 and Stanniocalcin-1. These effects of Bcl-2 on the transcriptome are detected in EC cultured as angiogenic 3-D tubes but are attenuated in EC cultured as 2-D monolayers. Bcl-2-regulated transcription in EC may contribute to vascular maturation, and support design of tissue engineering strategies using EC. Keywords: genetic modification, growth condition modification.

Homeostatic maintenance and age-related functional decline in the Drosophila ear

Project description:Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a threat to future human wellbeing. Multiple factors contributing to the terminal auditory decline have been identified; but a unified understanding of ARHL - or the homeostatic maintenance of hearing before its breakdown - is missing. We here present an in-depth analysis of homeostasis and ageing in the antennal ears of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. We show that Drosophila, just like humans, display ARHL. By focusing on the phase of dynamic stability prior to the eventual hearing loss we discovered a set of evolutionarily conserved homeostasis genes. The transcription factors Onecut (closest human orthologues: ONECUT2, ONECUT3), Optix (SIX3, SIX6), Worniu (SNAI2) and Amos (ATOH1, ATOH7, ATOH8, NEUROD1) emerged as key regulators, acting upstream of core components of the fly’s molecular machinery for auditory transduction and amplification. Adult-specific manipulation of homeostatic regulators in the fly’s auditory neurons accelerated - or protected against - ARHL.

The impact of hepatocyte specific Cyp51 disruption on development and sexual dimorphism in mice

Project description:Unperturbed cholesterol homeostasis is important for normal development and sexual maturation in mice. Cyp51 is the rate limiting step in the post-lanosteorl part of cholesterol biosynthesis. Unlike the full body knockout, hepatocyte specific Cyp51 knockout mice survive throughout adulthood, however their livers are severly affected. Several of the hepatocyte specific Cyp51 knockout mice develop severe liver injury or die prior to reaching adulthood (from 4-10 weeks of age; designated as runts). We aim to uncover the timing and the mechanistic background governing the liver damage and sex differences. Hepatocyte-specific Cyp51 knockout and wild type mice on a mixed background (129/Pas (10%) × C57BL/6J (90%)) of both sexes (F and M) were investigated at the pre pubertal (3 weeks), late pubertal (6 weeks) and adult (19 weeks) stage of development. This age span allows us to also observe the impact of sexual maturation on the disease development, as the liver is one of the most sexually dimorphic non-reproductive organs. Runt mice were evaluated to differentiate them from the other KO mice with milder conditions.

MiR-29a-deficiency Causes Thickening of the Basilar Membrane and Age-related Hearing Loss by Upregulating Collagen Ⅳ and Laminin

Project description:Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the most common sensory degenerative disease and can significantly impact the quality of life in elderly people. A previous study using GeneChip miRNA microarray assays showed that the expression of miR-29a changes with age, however, its role in hearing loss is still unclear. In this study, we characterized the cochlear phenotype of miR-29a knockout (miR-29a-/-) mice and found that miR-29a-deficient mice had a rapid progressive elevation of the hearing threshold from 2 to 5 months of age compared with littermate controls as measured by the auditory brainstem response. Stereocilia degeneration, hair cell loss and abnormal stria vascularis were observed in miR-29a-/- mice at 4 months of age. Transcriptome sequencing results showed elevated extracellular matrix (ECM) gene expression in miR-29a-/- mice. Both GO annotation and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed that the key differences were closely related to ECM. Further examination with a transmission electron microscope showed thickening of the basilar membrane in the cochlea of miR-29a-/- mice. Five Col4a genes (Col4a1-a5) and two laminin genes (Lamb2 and Lamc1) were validated as miR-29a direct targets by dual luciferase assays and miR-29a inhibition assays with a miR-29a inhibitor. Consistent with the target gene validation results, the expression of these genes was significantly increased in the cochlea of miR-29a-/- mice, as shown by RT-PCR and Western blot. These findings suggest that miR-29a plays an important role in maintaining cochlear structure and function by regulating the expression of collagen and laminin and that the disturbance of its expression could be a cause of progressive hearing loss.
