How can ant queens live so long? Genes of multiple longevity pathways change expression with age in the ant Temnothorax rugatulus

Project description:Senescence is manifested by an increase in oxidative stress and a decline in biological functions with age. In most organisms, body maintenance is traded-off with reproduction. The negative relationship between longevity and fecundity is also evident on the molecular level, yet the proximate mechanisms remain poorly understood. Apparently by-passing this trade-off, social insect queens are both extremely long-lived (up to 30 years in some ants) and highly fecund compared to workers. Here, we study changes in gene expression with age and fecundity in queens to determine how the trade-off between those two traits is reshaped. We analyse tissue-specific gene expression in young founding queens and old, highly fecund queens of the ant Temnothorax rugatulus. More genes altered their expression with age in the fat body than in the brain. Despite strong differences in ovary development, few fecundity genes were differentially expressed. However, many longevity genes involved in well-known pathways or lifespan-associated biological processes changed their expression with age indicating that multiple longevity mechanisms are activated successively throughout a queens’ life. Young queens invested in immunity (i.e. activation of the Toll signalling pathway) and resistance against environmental and physiological stress associated with the founding phase (i.e. down regulation of the TOR pathway), while established older queens up-regulate anti-aging mechanisms (i.e. up-regulation of catalase, superoxide dismutase, heat shock 70 kDa proteins). Finally, we identified a number of candidate genes and pathways, potentially involved in reshaping the fertility-longevity trade-off in social insects, shedding light on how this is achieved on a proximate level.

Genetic insights into the biological mechanisms governing human ovarian ageing

Project description:Reproductive longevity is critical for fertility and impacts healthy ageing in women, yet insights into the underlying biological mechanisms and treatments to preserve it are limited. Here, we identify 290 genetic determinants of ovarian ageing, assessed using normal variation in age at natural menopause (ANM) in ~200,000 women of European ancestry. These common alleles influence clinical extremes of ANM; women in the top 1% of genetic susceptibility have an equivalent risk of premature ovarian insufficiency to those carrying monogenic FMR1 premutations. Identified loci implicate a broad range of DNA damage response (DDR) processes and include loss-of-function variants in key DDR genes. Integration with experimental models demonstrates that these DDR processes act across the life-course to shape the ovarian reserve and its rate of depletion. Furthermore, we demonstrate that experimental manipulation of DDR pathways highlighted by human genetics increase fertility and extend reproductive life in mice. Causal inference analyses using the identified genetic variants indicates that extending reproductive life in women improves bone health and reduces risk of type 2 diabetes, but increases risks of hormone-sensitive cancers. These findings provide insight into the mechanisms governing ovarian ageing, when they act across the life-course, and how they might be targeted by therapeutic approaches to extend fertility and prevent disease.
