Project description:Reducing insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling is one of the best conserved and characterized mechanisms to extend longevity. Pregnancy associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) is a secreted metalloprotease that increases IGF availability by cleaving IGF binding proteins. PAPP-A inhibition reduces local IGF signaling, limits the progression of multiple age-related diseases, and extends lifespan, but the mechanisms behind these pleiotropic effects remains unknown. Here, we developed and utilized a PAPP-A neutralizing antibody to discover that adulthood inhibition of this protease reduced collagen and extracellular matrix (ECM) gene expression in multiple tissues in mice. Using bone marrow to explore this effect, we identified mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) as the source of PAPP-A and primary responders to PAPP-A inhibition. Short-term treatment with anti-PAPP-A reduced IGF signaling in MSCs, altered MSC expression of collagen/ECM, and decreased MSC number. This affected MSC-dependent functions, decreasing myelopoiesis and osteogenesis. Our data demonstrate that PAPP-A inhibition reduces the activity and number of IGF-dependent mesenchymal progenitor cells and their differentiated progeny, and that this reduction leads to functional changes at the tissue level. MSC-like cells are present in virtually all tissues, and aberrant collagen and ECM production from mesenchymal cells drives aspects of aging and age-related diseases, thus this may be a mechanism by which PAPP-A deficiency enhances lifespan and healthspan.

Project description:Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) is a secreted metalloprotease that increases insulin-like growth factor (IGF) availability by cleaving IGF-binding proteins. Reduced IGF signaling extends longevity in multiple species, and consistent with this, PAPP-A deletion extends lifespan and healthspan; however, the mechanism remains unclear. To clarify PAPP-A's role, we developed a PAPP-A neutralizing antibody and treated adult mice with it. Transcriptomic profiling across tissues showed that anti-PAPP-A reduced IGF signaling and extracellular matrix (ECM) gene expression system wide. The greatest reduction in IGF signaling occurred in the bone marrow, where we found reduced bone, marrow adiposity, and myelopoiesis. These diverse effects led us to search for unifying mechanisms. We identified mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) as the source of PAPP-A in bone marrow and primary responders to PAPP-A inhibition. Mice treated with anti-PAPP-A had reduced IGF signaling in MSCs and dramatically decreased MSC number. As MSCs are (1) a major source of ECM and the progenitors of ECM-producing fibroblasts, (2) the originating source of adult bone, (3) regulators of marrow adiposity, and (4) an essential component of the hematopoietic niche, our data suggest that PAPP-A modulates bone marrow homeostasis by potentiating the number and activity of MSCs. We found that MSC-like cells are the major source of PAPP-A in other tissues also, suggesting that reduced MSC-like cell activity drives the system-wide reduction in ECM gene expression due to PAPP-A inhibition. Dysregulated ECM production is associated with aging and drives age-related diseases, and thus, this may be a mechanism by which PAPP-A deficiency enhances longevity.

Project description:A striking property of the ancient and obligate mutualism between figs and their pollinating wasps is that fig wasps consistently oviposit in the inner flowers of the fig syconium (gall flowers, which develop into galls that house developing larvae), but typically do not use the outer ring of flowers (seed flowers, which develop into seeds). To better understand differences between gall and seed flowers that might influence oviposition choices, and the unknown mechanisms underlying gall formation, we used a metatranscriptomic approach to analyze eukaryotic gene expression within fig flowers at the time of oviposition choice and early gall development. Consistent with the unbeatable seed hypothesis, which posits that only a portion of fig flowers are physiologically capable of responding to gall induction or supporting larval development, we found significant differences in gene expression assigned to defense and metabolism between gall- and seed flowers in receptive syconia. Transcripts assigned to flavonoids and defense were especially prevalent in receptive gall flowers, and carbohydrate metabolism was significantly up-regulated relative to seed flowers. In turn, high expression of the venom gene icarapin during wasp embryogenesis within galled flowers distinguishes it as a candidate gene for gall initiation. In response to galling, the fig significantly up-regulates the expression of chalcone synthase, which previously has been connected to gall formation in other plants. This study simultaneously evaluates the gene expression profile of both mutualistic partners in a plant-insect mutualism and provides evidence for a stability mechanism in the ancient fig-fig wasp association.

We examined two different Ficus flower types at two different time points. Each sample contained a pool of hundreds of individual flowers from multiple sycomia.
