Project description:The aim of this investigation was to develop a global view of muscle transcriptional differences between older men and women and with aging for each sex. Muscle biopsies were obtained from the biceps brachii of young (age 19~28yrs) and older (age 65~76 yrs) men (7 young, 4 older) and women (7 young, 4 older). Total RNA was extracted and gene expression profiling was performed using the Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2 chip.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms underlying the sex differences in human muscle morphology and function remain to be elucidated. The purpose of the study was to detect the sex differences in the skeletal muscle transcriptome in both the resting state and following anabolic stimuli, resistance exercise. We used microarrays to profile the transcriptome of the biceps brachii of young men and women who underwent an acute unilateral RE session following 12 weeks of progressive training. Bilateral muscle biopsies were obtained either at an early (4h post-exercise) or late recovery (24h post-exercise) time point. Muscle transcription profiles were compared in the resting state between men (n=6) and women (n=8), and in response to acute RE in trained exercised vs. untrained non-exercised control muscle for each sex and time point separately (4h post-exercise, n=3 males, n=4 females; 24h post-exercise, n=3 males, n=4 females). A logistic regression-based method (LRpath), following Bayesian moderated t-statistic (IMBT), was used to test gene functional groups and biological pathways enriched with differentially expressed genes.

Project description:Clinical data showed sex variability in the immune response to influenza vaccination, this study aimed to investigate differentially expressed genes that contribute to sex-bias immune responses to quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccines (QIVs) in older subjects. A cohort of 60 healthy older adults aged 60 to 80 years old were vaccinated with quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccines (QIVs), and gene expression was analyzed at Day 0 pre-vaccination, Day 3, Day 28 and Day 180 post-vaccination. Sexual dimorphism of humoral immunity was analyzed by HAI assay, and the correlation of gene expression patterns of two sex groups with humoral immune response to vaccination was analyzed. The differentially expressed genes involved in type I interferon signaling pathway and complement activation of classical pathway were upregulated within 3 days post-vaccination in females. At Day 28 after immunization, the immune response showed a man-bias pattern associated with the regulation of protein processing and complement activation of classical pathway. A list of differentially expressed genes associated with variant responses to influenza vaccination between women and men were identified by biology-driven clustering. Old women have a greater immune response to QIVs but rapid decline of antibody levels, while old men have the advantages to sustain a durable response to influenza vaccination. In addition, we identified genes that may contribute to the sex variations toward influenza vaccination in the aged. Our findings highlight the importance of developing personalized seasonal influenza vaccines.

Project description:Aortic stenosis (AS) is a degenerative valve disease characterized by active remodelling of valve leaflets. The main hallmarks of stenotic aortic valves (AVs) include fibrosis, inflammation, osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Men and women develop these mechanisms differently. Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a pro-inflammatory and pro-osteogenic lectin with a prominent role in the progression of AS. In this work, we aim to analyze potential sex-differences in the impact of Gal-3 in AS. 226 patients (61.50% men) with severe AS undergoing surgical valve replacement were recruited. In AVs, Gal-3 expression and its relationship with inflammatory, osteogenic and angiogenic markers was assessed. Valve interstitial cells (VIC) derived from AV tissue were primary cultured to perform in vitro experiments. Proteomic analysis revealed that Gal-3 is over-expressed in VICs of male AS patients. Gal-3 secretion also showed to be higher in men’s VICs as compared to women. In human AV tissue, Gal-3 protein levels were significantly higher in men, with stronger immunostaining in VICs with myofibroblastic phenotype and valve endothelial cells. Gal-3 levels in AVs were positively correlated with inflammatory markers in both sexes. Gal-3 expression was also positively correlated with osteogenic markers mainly in men’s AV, and with angiogenic molecules only in this sex.

Project description:Human aging is associated with skeletal muscle atrophy and functional impairment (sarcopenia). Multiple lines of evidence suggest that mitochondrial dysfunction is a major contributor to sarcopenia. We evaluated whether healthy aging was associated with a transcriptional profile reflecting mitochondrial impairment and whether resistance exercise could reverse this signature to that approximating a younger physiological age. Skeletal muscle biopsies from healthy older (N = 25) and younger (N = 26) adult men and women were compared using gene expression profiling, and a subset of these were related to measurements of muscle strength. 14 of the older adults had muscle samples taken before and after a six-month resistance exercise-training program. Before exercise training, older adults were 59% weaker than younger, but after six months of training in older adults, strength improved significantly (P<0.001) such that they were only 38% lower than young adults. As a consequence of age, we found 596 genes differentially expressed using a false discovery rate cut-off of 5%. Prior to the exercise training, the transcriptome profile showed a dramatic enrichment of genes associated with mitochondrial function with age. However, following exercise training the transcriptional signature of aging was markedly reversed back to that of younger levels for most genes that were affected by both age and exercise. We conclude that healthy older adults show evidence of mitochondrial impairment and muscle weakness, but that this can be partially reversed at the phenotypic level, and substantially reversed at the transcriptome level, following six months of resistance exercise training.

Project description:It is well recognized that men and women differ in circulating lipid profiles and consequently coronary artery disease (CAD). While sex hormones like estrogens are thought to protect women from CAD risk by promoting protective lipid profiles, hormone replacement therapy in women paradoxically increases CAD risk. Biological sex is determined by both sex chromosomes and sex hormones. We used mouse models to separate effects of sex chromosomes and hormones on atherosclerosis, circulating lipids and intestinal fat metabolism. We found that an XX sex chromosome complement increases food intake, body weight, fat absorption, serum lipid concentrations and atherosclerosis in gonadal male and female mice, indicating a primary effect of sex chromosome complement. Small intestine expression of enzymes involved in lipid absorption and chylomicron assembly were increased in XX male and female mice with elevated intestinal lipids. These results reveal that an XX sex chromosome complement promotes the absorption and bioavailability of dietary fat to accelerate the development of atherosclerosis.

Project description:Cellular composition and responsiveness of immune system evolve upon ageing and are influenced by biological sex. CD4+ T cells from women living with HIV exhibit decreased viral replication ex vivo compared to men. We thus hypothesized that these findings could be recapitulated in vitro, and infected primary CD4+ T cells with HIV-based vectors pseudotyped with VSV-G or HIV envelopes. We used cells isolated from twenty donors to interrogate the effect of sex and age on permissiveness over a six-day activation kinetics. Our data identified an increased permissiveness to HIV between 24 and 72h post-stimulation. Sex- and age-based analysis at these time points showed increased susceptibility to HIV of cells isolated from males and from donors over 50 years old, respectively. Parallel assessment of surface marker expression revealed higher frequencies of activation markers (CD69, CD25, HLA-DR) and immune check point inhibitors (PD-1 and CTLA-4 in cells from highly permissive donors. Furthermore, positive correlations were identified between CD69, PD-1 and CTLA-4 expression kinetics and HIV expression kinetics. Cell population heterogeneity was assessed by single-cell RNA-Seq analysis and no cell subtype enrichment was identified according to sex. Finally, transcriptomic analyses further highlighted the role of activation in those differences with enriched activation and cell cycle gene sets in men and in older women cells. Altogether, this study brought further evidence about individual features affecting HIV replication at the cellular level and should be considered in latency reactivation studies for HIV cure.
