Project description:Longevity mechanisms increase lifespan by counteracting the effects of aging. However, whether longevity mechanisms counteract the effects of aging continually throughout life, or whether they act during specific periods of life, preventing changes that precede mortality is unclear. Here, we uncover transcriptional drift, a phenomenon that describes how aging causes genes within functional groups to change expression in opposing directions. These changes cause a transcriptome-wide loss in mRNA stoichiometry and loss of co-expression patterns in aging animals, as compared to young adults. Using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model, we show that extending lifespan by inhibiting serotonergic signals by the antidepressant mianserin attenuates transcriptional drift, allowing the preservation of a younger transcriptome into an older age. Our data are consistent with a model in which inhibition of serotonergic signals slows age-dependent physiological decline and the associated rise in mortality levels exclusively in young adults, thereby postponing the onset of major mortality.

In this study set out to measure aging in the transcriptome by determining drift-variance changes with age in C.elegans. We set up three different cohorts of water or mianserin treated animals. The title of each cohort indicates the treatment (e.g. h2o or mia), the concentration (mia2, mia10, mia50), the day when the treatment was started (e.g. d1= day 1 of adulthood) and the day when the sample was collected (e.g. d10= day 10 of adulthood). cohort #1: Celegans was treated with water or mianserin (50uM) on day 1 and RNA was harvested on day1 (water only), d3, d5 and day 10 (file titles: h2o d1/d1, h2o d1/d3, h2o d1/d5, h2o d1/d10, mia50 d1/d3, mia50 d1/d5, mia50 d1/d10) cohort #2: Celegans was treated with mianserin (50uM) starting on day 3, and day 5, RNA was harvested on day 5 or 10 (file titles: mia50 d3/d10, mia50 d5/d10, mia50 d3/d5) cohort #3: Celegans was treated with mianserin 2 uM and 10 uM Mianserin on day 1 and Rna harvested on day 5 (file titles: mia2 d1/d5, mia10 d1/d5)

Project description:Our analysis reveals an extensive methylomic drift between normal squamous esophagus and BE tissues in nonprogressed BE patients, with differential drift affecting 4024 (24%) of 16,984 normally hypomethylated cytosine-guanine dinucleotides (CpGs) occurring in CpG islands. The majority (63%) of islands that include drift CpGs are associated with gene promoter regions. Island CpGs that drift have stronger pairwise correlations than static islands, reflecting collective drift consistent with processive DNA methylation maintenance. Individual BE tissues are extremely heterogeneous in their distribution of methylomic drift and encompass unimodal low-drift to bimodal high-drift patterns, reflective of differences in BE tissue age. Further analysis of longitudinally collected biopsy samples from 20 BE patients confirm the time-dependent evolution of these drift patterns. Drift patterns in EAC are similar to those in BE, but frequently exhibit enhanced bimodality and advanced mode drift. To better understand the observed drift patterns, we developed a multicellular stochastic model at the CpG island level. Importantly, we find that nonlinear feedback in the model between mean island methylation and CpG methylation rates is able to explain the widely heterogeneous collective drift patterns. Using matched gene expression and DNA methylation data in EAC from TCGA and other publically available data, we also find that advanced methylomic drift is correlated with significant transcriptional repression of ~ 200 genes in important regulatory and developmental pathways, including several checkpoint and tumor suppressor-like genes. Taken together, our findings suggest that epigenetic drift evolution acts to significantly reduce the expression of developmental genes that may alter tissue characteristics and improve functional adaptation during BE and EAC progression.
