Intermediate filaments are regulators organismal lifespan in C. elegans

Project description:Purpose: Try to find out whether germline loss retards the normal somatic aging Methods: Employed transcriptome analysis in both young and aged germline-deficient animals and identified genes that are normally decreased during aging in wild-type (WT) worms but are well maintained in aged germline-deficient animals Results: Compared with D1, there were 1834 genes downregulated at D6, while only 441 genes showed increased expression

Perinuclear assembly of vimentin intermediate filaments induces cancer cell nuclear dysmorphia

Project description:Nuclear dysmorphia, characterized by crumpled or lobulated polymorphic nuclear shapes, has been used as an index for the malignant grades of certain cancers. The expression of vimentin, a type III intermediate filament protein, is a hallmark of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. However, it remains unclear whether vimentin is involved in cancer cell nuclear dysmorphia. In this study, we found that vimentin intermediate filaments (VIFs) frequently accumulated at the concave of dysmorphic nucleus in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells. Depletion of vimentin apparently restored the nuclear shape of the cells, which was devastated by re-expression of vimentin, but not its assembly-defective Y117D mutant. Depletion of plectin, a cytoskeletal linker, partially prevented the perinuclear accumulation of VIFs and concomitantly restored the nuclear shape of the cells. In addition, depletion of vimentin in lung cancer A549 cells largely prevented nuclear dysmorphia during the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition induced by transforming growth factor-β. Moreover, we found that VIF-mediated nuclear dysmorphia led to defects in DNA repair. Together, our results unveil a novel role of VIFs in cancer cell nuclear dysmorphia, which is associated with genome instability.

The GID Ubiquitin Ligase Complex is a Regulator of AMPK Activity and Organismal Lifespan

Project description:The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) regulates cellular energy homeostasis by sensing the metabolic status of the cell. AMPK is regulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation as a result of changing AMP/ATP levels and by removal of inhibitory ubiquitin residues by USP10. In this context, we identified the GID-complex, an evolutionarily conserved ubiquitin-ligasecomplex (E3), as a negative regulator of AMPK activity. Our data show that the GID-complex targets AMPK for ubiquitination thereby altering its activity. Cells depleted of GID-subunits mimic a state of starvation as shown by increased AMPK activity and autophagic flux as well as reduced MTOR activation. Consistently, gid-genes knockdown in C. elegans results in increased organismal lifespan. This study may contribute to understand metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes mellitus and morbid obesity and implements alternative therapeutic approaches to alter AMPK activity.

The intestinal intermediate filament network responds to and protects against microbial insults and toxins II

Project description:The enrichment of intermediate filaments in the apical cytoplasm of intestinal cells is evolutionarily conserved, forming a sheath that is anchored to apical junctions and positioned below the microvillar brush border, which suggests a protective intracellular barrier function. To test this, we used Caenorhabditis elegans, the intestinal cells of which are endowed with a particularly dense intermediate filament-rich layer that is referred to as the endotube. We found alterations in endotube structure and intermediate filament expression upon infection with nematicidal B. thuringiensis or treatment with its major pore-forming toxin crystal protein Cry5B. Endotube impairment due to defined genetic mutations of intermediate filaments and their regulators results in increased Cry5B sensitivity as evidenced by elevated larval arrest, prolonged time of larval development and reduced survival. Phenotype severity reflects the extent of endotube alterations and correlates with reduced rescue upon toxin removal. The results provide in vivo evidence for a major protective role of a properly configured intermediate filament network as an intracellular barrier in intestinal cells. This notion is further supported by increased sensitivity of endotube mutants to oxidative and osmotic stress.

Lifespan of neurons is uncoupled from organismal lifespan.

Project description:Neurons in mammals do not undergo replicative aging, and, in absence of pathologic conditions, their lifespan is limited only by the maximum lifespan of the organism. Whether neuronal lifespan is determined by the strain-specific lifetime or can be extended beyond this limit is unknown. Here, we transplanted embryonic mouse cerebellar precursors into the developing brain of the longer-living Wistar rats. The donor cells integrated into the rat cerebellum developing into mature neurons while retaining mouse-specific morphometric traits. In their new environment, the grafted mouse neurons did not die at or before the maximum lifespan of their strain of origin but survived as long as 36 mo, doubling the average lifespan of the donor mice. Thus, the lifespan of neurons is not limited by the maximum lifespan of the donor organism, but continues when transplanted in a longer-living host.
