Project description:CREB-Regulated Transcription Co-activator (CRTC) regulates metabolism in liver where activation by calcineurin regulates gluconeogenic genes. CaN also has roles in pathological cardiac hypertrophy, however cardiac roles for CRTC have not been identified. In Drosophila, CRTC null mutants exhibit severe cardiac restriction, myofibrillar disorganization, cardiac fibrosis, and tachycardia. Cardiac-specific knockdown (KD) of CRTC mimicked the heart defects of CRTC mutants and cardiac-overexpression (OE) of CRTC or calcineurin caused hypertrophy that was reduced in CRTC mutants, suggesting CRTC mediates calcineurin’s effects. RNAseq of CRTC KD or OE hearts revealed contra-regulated genes involved in glucose, fatty acid, and amino acid metabolism. Genes with conserved CREB binding sites included the fly ortholog of Sarcalumenin, a Ca2+-binding protein. Cardiac KD of this gene recapitulated CRTC KD restriction and fibrotic phenotypes. KD in zebrafish also caused restriction, indicating a conserved role in cardiomyocyte maintenance, and suggesting CaN-CRTC-Sarcalumenin signaling represents a novel pathway underlying cardiac hypertrophy.

Project description:Purpose: Exploring the alteration in CREB/CRTC binding related to long-term memory Methods: The nuclei of Drosophila mushroom bodies were purified and the histone acetylation and CREB/CRTC binding were examined by ChIP-seq using specific antibodies. The sequencing was performed using Miseq, and aligned to dm3 using CLCbio. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed by peak calling using PICS and ERD equipped on Strand NGS software. This method using two algorisms excludes false-positive calling of peaks. The PICS and ERD were run using a default setting except for the following parameters; for PICS, 120 bp as an average fragment length, 10 bp as a minimum distance between forward and reverse reads, 200 bp as a minimum distance between forward and reverse reads, 100 bp as a window width, with 5% false discovery rate; for ERD, 1.5 as an enrichment factor, 100 bp as a window size, 10 bp as a window slide size, 100 bp as a minimum region size. The peaks obtained by ERD analysis were filtered by an enrichment factor of 2, and a density of reads at 0.12 for CREB and 0.2 for CRTC. The CREB and the CRTC binding sites were determined as the peak-called region in at least 2 samples out of the three replicates. The CREB and the CRTC binding sites located 200 bp vicinity to each other were defined as the CREB/CRTC binding sites. In parallel, the read counts were obtained in the 1 kb window covering entire genome and analyzed by DESeq2, to determine the region enriched with CREB/CRTC in a specific group of samples. The region with increased or decreased CREB/CRTC binding were determined if the region were defined by the CREB/CRTC binding sites in the above criteria. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, the filtered reads amounted to 8-11million reads for CREB in each of 3 replicates, 8-17 million reads for CRTC in each of 3 replicates, and 4.4 million reads for input. Using anti-CREB antibody, we found 239 significant increases in CREB binding out of 4995 CREB/CRTC binding sites 1 day after training. Using anti-CRTC antibody, we found 4989 significant increases in CRTC binding out of 4995 CREB/CRTC binding sites 1 day after spaced training. Conclusions: Our study shows that, although CREB binding is mostly unchanged, CRTC binding is significantly increased after long-term memory formation in Drosophila mushroom bodies.

Project description:Low energy states delay aging in multiple species, yet mechanisms coordinating energetics and longevity across tissues remain poorly defined. The conserved energy sensor AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its corresponding phosphatase calcineurin modulate longevity via the ‘CREB regulated transcriptional coactivator (CRTC)-1 in C. elegans. We show that CRTC-1 specifically uncouples AMPK/calcineurin mediated effects on lifespan from pleiotropic side effects by reprogramming mitochondrial and metabolic function. Strikingly, this pro-longevity metabolic state is regulated cell-nonautonomously by CRTC-1 in the nervous system. CRTC-1/CREB act antagonistically with the functional PPARα ortholog, NHR-49 to promote distinct peripheral metabolic programs. Neuronal CRTC-1 drives mitochondrial fragmentation in distal tissues and suppresses the effect of AMPK on systemic mitochondrial metabolism and longevity via a cell-nonautonomous catecholamine signal. These results demonstrate that transcriptional control of neuronal signals can override enzymatic regulation of metabolism in peripheral tissues. Central perception of energetic state therefore represents a target to promote healthy aging.

Project description:AMPK (AAK-2) and calcineurin (TAX-6) mediate longevity exclusively through post-translational modification of CRTC-1, the sole C. elegans CRTC (CREB regulated transcriptional coactivator). We performed microarrays to examine the transcriptional responses elicited by the pro-longevity: activation of AMPK, deactivation of calcineurin, and decrease of CREB (CRH-1) activity.

We performed microarrays to examine the transcriptional responses elicited by the pro-longevity: activation of AMPK, deactivation of calcineurin, and decrease of CREB (CRH-1) activity. Gene expression profiles for crh1 (nn3315) and tax-6 (ok2065) mutants, aak-2c (aa1-321) overexpressers and WT (N2) controls were obtained by measuring RNA levels in replicate pools of 3000 synchronized L4 worms. Three replicate pools of each strain were prepared on separate days.

Project description:Loss of function during ageing is accompanied by transcriptional drift, altering gene expression and contributing to a variety of age-related diseases. CREB-regulated transcriptional coactivators (CRTCs) have emerged as key regulators of gene expression that might be targeted to promote longevity. Here, we define the role of the Caenorhabditis elegans CRTC-1 in the epigenetic regulation of longevity. Endogenous CRTC-1 binds chromatin factors, including components of the COMPASS complex, which trimethylates lysine 4 on histone H3 (H3K4me3). CRISPR editing of endogenous CRTC-1 reveals that the CREB-binding domain in neurons is specifically required for H3K4me3-dependent longevity. However, this effect is independent of CREB but instead acts via the transcription factor AP-1. Strikingly, CRTC-1 also mediates global histone acetylation levels, and this acetylation is essential for H3K4me3-dependent longevity. Indeed, overexpression of an acetyltransferase enzyme is sufficient to promote longevity in wild-type worms. CRTCs, therefore, link energetics to longevity by critically fine-tuning histone acetylation and methylation to promote healthy ageing.

Project description:Exposure to adverse nutritional and metabolic environments during critical periods of development can exert long-lasting effects on health outcomes of an individual and its descendants. Although such metabolic programming has been observed in multiple species and in response to distinct nutritional stressors, conclusive insights into signaling pathways and mechanisms responsible for initiating, mediating and manifesting changes to metabolism and behavior across generations remain scarce. By employing a multigenerational starvation paradigm in C. elegans, we show that starvation-induced changes in DAF-16/FoxO activity, the main downstream target of insulin/IGF-1 receptor signaling, are responsible for metabolic programming phenotypes. Tissue-specific depletion of DAF-16/FoxO during distinct developmental time points further demonstrates that DAF-16/FoxO acts in somatic tissues, but not directly in the germline, to both initiate and manifest metabolic programming. In conclusion, our study deciphers multifaceted and critical roles of highly conserved insulin/IGF-1 receptor signaling in determining health outcomes and behavior across generations.

Project description:Insulin and insulin-like growth factor signalling regulates a broad spectrum of growth and metabolic responses to a variety of internal and environmental stimuli. Such responses can be tailored so that changes in insulin signalling result in distinct physiological responses to different stimuli. For example, the inhibition of insulin-like signalling is key in the responses of the nematode C. elegans to both osmotic stress and starvation, but these two stresses result in responses that are both physiologically and molecularly distinct. How does reduced insulin-like signalling elicit different responses to different environmental stimuli? We report that neurohormonal signalling involving the C. elegans cytosolic sulfotransferase SSU-1 controls developmental arrest in response to osmotic stress but does not control the distinct developmental arrest that occurs in response to starvation. SSU-1 functions in a single pair of sensory neurons to control intercellular signalling -- likely by catalyzing the synthesis of a steroid hormone -- via the nuclear hormone receptor NHR-1. SSU-1-controlled signalling antagonizes insulin-like signalling and hence modulates insulin sensitivity. In short, we describe a previously unknown neurohormonal signalling pathway that is required specifically for some but not all consequences of reduced insulin-like signalling. In mammals, the nervous system plays a similarly important yet poorly understood role in modulating insulin sensitivity. Our results suggest that the mammalian nervous system might regulate insulin sensitivity via sulfotransferase-controlled neurohormonal signalling.
