Project description:Exon usage analysis in in vitro cultured fibroblast cells. To assay the genome-wide splicing changes during cellular senescence, we performed splicing analysis on young and old normal fibroblasts, and in fibroblasts +/- tert (telomerase protein subunit Tert immortalized). We analyzed primary fibroblasts from 5 healthy subjects at various passages and from 2 Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) patients using the Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST platform. Two or three technical replicates were performed.

Project description:Activation of telomerase often endows cancer cells, but rarely normal somatic cells, with immortality. Especially, fetal lung fibroblasts are known to be hardly immortalized by TERT overexpression. We here established an immortal non-transformed lung fibroblast cell line only by TERT transfection, as well as an immortal transformed cell line by transfection of TERT and SV40 early antigens. Comparing the expression profiles of these cell lines with those of mortal cell strains with elongated lifespan after TERT transfection, 51 genes, including 19 upregulated and 32 downregulated, were explored to be the candidates responsible for regulation of cellular proliferation of lung fibroblasts. These included the genes previously reported to be involved in cellular proliferation, transformation, or self-renewal capacity, and those highly expressed in lung tissues obtained from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis or hypersensitivity pneumonitis. This set of lung fibrobrast cell lines/strains of identical genetic background with different proliferative capacity, mortal and immortal non-transformed fibroblasts may become useful model cells for research on lung fibroblast growth regulation and the candidate genes explored in this study may provide promising biomarkers or molecular targets of pulmonary fibrosis. Keywords: Cell type comparison We analyzed 6 arrays with Affymetrix, 4 arrays with Agilent, and 7 arrays with CodeLink oligonucleotide microarrays for lung fibroblasts with various lifespan with or without transfection of TERT and/or SV40 early antigens.

Project description:As the most prevalent type of alternative splicing in animal cells, exon skipping plays an important role in expanding the diversity of transcriptome and proteome, thereby participating the regulation of diverse physiological and pathological processes such as development, aging and cancer. Cellular senescence serves as an anti-cancer mechanism could also contribute to individual aging. Although the dynamic changes of exon skipping during cellular senescence were revealed, its biological consequence and upstream regulator remain poorly understood. Here, by using human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF) replicative senescence as a model, we discovered that splicing factor PTBP1 was an important contributor for global exon skipping events during senescence. Down-regulated expression of PTBP1 induced senescence-associated phenotypes and related mitochondrial functional changes. Mechanistically, PTBP1 binds to the third exon of mitochondrial complex I subunit coding gene NDUFV3 and protects the exon from skipping. We further confirmed that exon skipping of NDUFV3 correlates with and partially contributes to cellular senescence and related mitochondrial functional changes upon PTBP1 knockdown. Together, we revealed for the first time that mitochondrial related gene NDUFV3 is a new downstream target for PTBP1-regulated exon skipping to mediate cellular senescence and mitochondrial functional changes.

Project description:Limited data exists regarding changes of microRNA (miRNA) expression during senescence in human cells and no reports correlate telomerase expression with regulation of senescence-related miRNAs. We used miRNA microarrays to provide a detailed account of miRNA profiles for early passage and senescent human foreskin (BJ) fibroblasts as well as early and late passage immortalized fibroblasts (BJ-hTERT) that stably express the human telomerase reverse transcriptase subunit hTERT. The revelation that miRNA expression changes with extended passaging in BJ-hTERT cells will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the connections between telomerase expression, senescence and processes of cellular aging.

Project description:The Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST array was used to measure differential splicing patterns in archived RNA isolated from 26 of 80 children (11 Rejectors and 15 Non-Rejectors). The exon-level probe summaries reported in this series were computed using the Affymetrix Power Tools (APT) software and 'rma-sketch' normalization method.
