Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects an estimated 5.8 million Americans, and advanced age is the greatest risk factor. AD patients have altered intestinal microbiota. Accordingly, depleting intestinal microbiota in AD animal models reduces amyloid-beta (A?) plaque deposition. Age-related changes in the microbiota contribute to immunologic and physiologic decline. Translationally relevant dietary manipulations may be an effective approach to slow microbiota changes during aging. We previously showed that calorie restriction (CR) reduced brain A? deposition in the well-established Tg2576 mouse model of AD. Presently, we investigated whether CR alters the microbiome during aging. We found that female Tg2576 mice have more substantial age-related microbiome changes compared to wildtype (WT) mice, including an increase in Bacteroides, which were normalized by CR. Specific gut microbiota changes were linked to A? levels, with greater effects in females than in males. In the gut, Tg2576 female mice had an enhanced intestinal inflammatory transcriptional profile, which was reversed by CR. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Bacteroides colonization exacerbates A? deposition, which may be a mechanism whereby the gut impacts AD pathogenesis. These results suggest that long-term CR may alter the gut environment and prevent the expansion of microbes that contribute to age-related cognitive decline.

Project description:Neuroinflammation is an important contributor to neuronal pathology and death in neurodegenerative diseases and neuronal injury. Therapeutic interventions blocking the activity of the inflammatory kinase IKKβ, a key regulator of neuroinflammatory pathways, is protective in several animal models of neurodegenerative disease and neuronal injury. In Huntington's disease (HD), however, significant questions exist as to the impact of blocking or diminishing the activity of IKKβ on HD pathology given its potential role in Huntingtin (HTT) degradation. In cell culture, IKKβ phosphorylates HTT serine (S) 13 and activates HTT degradation, a process that becomes impaired with polyQ expansion. To investigate the in vivo relationship of IKKβ to HTT S13 phosphorylation and HD progression, we crossed conditional tamoxifen-inducible IKKβ knockout mice with R6/1 HD mice. Behavioral assays in these mice showed a significant worsening of HD pathological phenotypes. The increased behavioral pathology correlated with reduced levels of endogenous mouse full-length phospho-S13 HTT, supporting the importance of IKKβ in the phosphorylation of HTT S13 in vivo. Notably, many striatal autophagy genes were up-regulated in HD vs. control mice; however, IKKβ knockout partially reduced this up-regulation in HD, increased striatal neurodegeneration, and enhanced an activated microglial response. We propose that IKKβ is protective in striatal neurons early in HD progression via phosphorylation of HTT S13. As IKKβ is also required for up-regulation of some autophagy genes and HTT is a scaffold for selective autophagy, IKKβ may influence autophagy through multiple mechanisms to maintain healthy striatal function, thereby reducing neuronal degeneration to slow HD onset.

Project description:Dietary restriction (DR) is the best-characterized intervention for slowing aging, and reduced signaling through the target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase is believed to be one of the key mechanisms by which DR extends life span in organisms from yeast to mammals. Here we describe a role for nuclear sequestration of tRNA in yeast replicative life span (RLS) extension from DR. DR causes the nuclear tRNA exporter Los1 to become depleted from the nucleus by a mechanism that requires the DNA damage response factor Rad53, and deletion of LOS1 or overexpression of RAD53 is sufficient to extend RLS. We further report that activation of the nitrogen responsive transcription factor Gln3 is the primary mechanism by which DR extends RLS. Gln3 is activated by both branches of the DR response and is required for life span extension. Overexpression of Gln3 extends RLS by approximately 50%. In order to identify potential factors acting to modulate longevity downstream of Los1, we used microarray analysis to compare the gene expression profiles of wild type and LOS1 knockout cells under non-restricted conditions cultured overnight prior to RNA isolation.

Project description:Background & Aims: In this study, we investigated metabolic and molecular effects of weekly intervening 30% calorie restriction on long term natural progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which was induced by a medium fat diet. Methods: Male C57BL/6J mice of 9 weeks old received either (1) a control (C), (2) a calorie restricted (CR), (3) a medium fat (MF; 25%fat) or (4) an intermittent diet (ID), a weekly alternating diet consisting of calorie restriction and medium fat diet ad libitum until sacrifice at the age of 12 months. Various metabolic and molecular features of the liver were examined. Results: The ID regimen improved the status of a range of metabolic parameters and showed no progression to NAFLD: proper glucose tolerance, low hepatic triglyceride content, low plasma alanine aminotransferase and no abnormalities in its liver morphological features; similarly to that of CR. In contrast, the metabolic parameters in a number of the C and MF animals indicated development of NAFLD and hepatic fibrosis, which was positively correlated with body weight. Despite the metabolic phenotypes similarity, the liver gene expression profile of ID-fed mice did not reflect that of CR mice and resembled more to C and MF-fed mice with similar low body weight. Conclusions: Our study reveals that ID is beneficial for metabolic health and prevents the development of NAFLD in mice, with a gene expression profile similar to C and MF diet in a body weight-dependent manner.

Project description:SCOPE: We investigated whether a novel dietary intervention consisting of an every-other-week calorie-restricted diet could prevent nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) development induced by a medium-fat (MF) diet. METHODS AND RESULTS: Nine-week-old male C57BL/6J mice received either a (i) control (C), (ii) 30E% calorie restricted (CR), (iii) MF (25E% fat), or (iv) intermittent (INT) diet, a diet alternating weekly between 40E% CR and an ad libitum MF diet until sacrifice at the age of 12 months. The metabolic, morphological, and molecular features of NAFLD were examined. The INT diet resulted in healthy metabolic and morphological features as displayed by the continuous CR diet: glucose tolerant, low hepatic triglyceride content, low plasma alanine aminotransferase. In contrast, the C- and MF-exposed mice with high body weight developed signs of NAFLD. However, the gene expression profiles of INT-exposed mice differed to those of CR-exposed mice and showed to be more similar with those of C- and MF-exposed mice with a comparable body weight. CONCLUSIONS: Our study reveals that the INT diet maintains metabolic health and reverses the adverse effects of the MF diet, thus effectively prevents the development of NAFLD in 12-month-old male C57BL/6J mice. Male C57Bl/6J mice were divided to 4 dietary intervention groups: Control (AIN-93W), 30% calorie restriction (CR; AIN-93W-CR), medium fat (MF; AIN-93W-MF; 25% energy from fat) and intermittent diet (INT; weekly alternating diet between AIN-93W-MF ad lib and 40% CR of AIN-93W). We performed various measurements on metabolic parameters and gene expression analysis on the liver. This entry represents the microarray data of the liver gene expression of each mouse.
