Project description:Reduced cancer incidence has been reported among type II diabetics treated with metformin. Metformin exhibits anti-proliferative and anti-neoplastic effects associated with inhibition of mTORC1, but the mechanisms are poorly understood. We provide the first genome-wide analysis of translational targets of canonical mTOR inhibitors (rapamycin and PP242) and metformin, revealing that metformin controls gene expression at the level of mRNA translation to an extent comparable to that of canonical mTOR inhibitors. Importantly, metformin's anti-proliferative activity can be explained by selective translational suppression of mRNAs encoding cell cycle regulators via the mTORC1/4E-BP pathway. Thus, metformin selectively inhibits mRNA translation of encoded proteins that promote neoplastic proliferation, motivating further studies of this compound and related biguanides in cancer prevention and treatment. MCF7 cells were treated with rapamycin, metformin or PP242 at concentrations that inhibited proliferation to 50% of control. Both cytoplasmic and polysome-associated mRNA was extracted from treatments and a vehicle treated control and probed with microarrays.

Project description:Metformin is a type 2 diabetes medication which extends life span across species when given from young adulthood onwards; late life effects of metformin are not well understood. Here we used C. elegans to investigate the outcome of metformin treatment initiated late in life. We found that, contrary to young age administration, old age metformin treatment interferes with energy homeostasis and shortens life span by aggravating age-associated mitochondrial dysfunction. Nematode mutants defective in mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial biogenesis and mitochondrial quality control were highly susceptible to metformin killing already at young age while insulin receptor deficient nematodes carrying healthier mitochondria were protected from late life metformin toxicity. In the mammalian cell culture model of replicative senescence metformin killing correlated with loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and strong reduction of systemic ATP levels. Reduced ATP levels and depletion of lipid stores consistent with energy deficit were observed also in nematodes following late life metformin treatment. At the molecular level young animals responded to metformin by inducing adaptive stress responses and longevity-assurance pathways while old nematodes demonstrated a protein expression signature consistent with lipid turnover and energy deficit. Ectopic ATP supplementation was sufficient to alleviate metformin toxicity in human skin fibroblasts highlighting the key contribution of energy deficit to the detrimental effect of metformin. Also, co-exposure with rapamycin, known to stabilize cellular ATP levels under conditions of mitochondrial failure, significantly reduced metformin-inflicted lethality in both cells and old animals. In summary we uncovered a novel negative synergism between metformin treatment and mitochondrial dysfunction which gains importance late in life and may limit therapeutic benefits of metformin for older patients; these side effects can partially be overcome by co-treatment with agents stabilizing cellular ATP levels such as rapamycin.

Project description:Metformin is the front-line treatment for type 2 diabetes worldwide. It acts via effects on glucose and lipid metabolism in metabolic tissues, leading to enhanced insulin sensitivity. Despite significant effort, the molecular basis for metformin response remains poorly understood, with a limited number of specific biochemical pathways studied to date. To broaden our understanding of hepatic metformin response, we combine phospho-protein enrichment in tissue from genetically engineered mice with a quantitative proteomics platform to enable the discovery and quantification of basophilic kinase substrates in-vivo. We define proteins that binding to 14-3-3 are acutely regulated by metformin treatment and/or loss of the serine/threonine kinase, LKB1. Inducible binding of 250 proteins following metformin treatment is observed, 44% LKB1-dependent. Beyond AMPK, metformin activates Protein Kinase D and MAPKAPK2 in an LKB1-independent manner, revealing additional kinases that may mediate aspects of metformin response. Deeper analysis uncovered substrates of AMPK in endocytosis and calcium homeostasis.

Project description:Metformin is the therapy of choice for treating type 2 diabetes and is currently repurposed for a wide range of diseases including aging. Recent evidence implicates the gut microbiota as a site of metformin action. Combining two tractable genetic models, the bacterium E. coli and the nematode C. elegans, we performed C. elegans RNAseq to investigate the role of the metformin sensitive OP50 and metformin resistant OP50-MR E. coli microbiota in the drug effects on the host. Our data suggest an evolutionarily conserved bacterial mediation of metformin effects on host lipid metabolism and lifespan.

Project description:Rapamycin extends life span in mice, but it remains unclear if this compound also delays mammalian aging. Here, we present results from a comprehensive large-scale assessment of a wide rage of structural and functional aging phenotypes in mice. Rapamycin extended life span but showed few effects on a large number of systemic aging phenotypes, suggesting that rapamycin's effects on aging are largely limited to the regulation of age-related mortality and carcinogenesis. Total RNA obtained from 2-4 male mice of each analysed group (25 weeks old controls, 25 month old controls, 25 month old rapamycin treated)
