Project description:To investigate the effect of chronic continuous hypoxia (11%) oxygen on lifespan and neurological function in Ercc1 ∆/- mice. We performed bulk RNA-seq of the cerebellum from mice that were Ercc1 ∆/- normoxia, Ercc1 ∆/- hypoxia, wildtype normoxia, wildtype hypoxia.

Project description:There is widespread interest in identifying interventions that extend healthy lifespan. Chronic continuous hypoxia delays the onset of replicative senescence in cultured cells and extends lifespan in yeast, nematodes, and fruit flies. Here, we asked whether chronic continuous hypoxia is beneficial in mammalian aging. We utilized the Ercc1 Δ/- mouse model of accelerated aging given that these mice are born developmentally normal but exhibit anatomic, physiological, and biochemical features of aging across multiple organs. Importantly, they exhibit a shortened lifespan that is extended by dietary restriction, the most potent aging intervention across many organisms. We report that chronic continuous 11% oxygen commenced at 4 weeks of age extends lifespan by 50% and delays the onset of neurological debility in Ercc1 Δ/- mice. Chronic continuous hypoxia did not impact food intake and did not significantly affect markers of DNA damage or senescence, suggesting that hypoxia did not simply alleviate the proximal effects of the Ercc1 mutation, but rather acted downstream via unknown mechanisms. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that "oxygen restriction" can extend lifespan in a mammalian model of aging.

Project description:Activation of Sirt1, the mammalian homolog of an NAD+-dependent deacetylase known to modulate lifespan in lower organisms, is thought to hold promise as a strategy for delaying aging in mammals. SRT1720, a novel compound developed as a specific and potent activator of Sirt1, has shown promising effects to glucose homeostasis in short-term studies of rats and mice. Here we show SRT1720 extends both mean and maximum lifespan of mice fed a high-fat diet and has concrete benefits to health including reduced liver steatosis and increased insulin sensitivity and locomotor activity. Gene expression profiles and markers of inflammation and apoptosis were also restored to levels more reflective of standard diet controls. Furthermore, the benefits incurred by SRT1720 occurred in the absence of any observable toxicity. The current findings provide hope that safe and effective treatments may be developed to mitigate age-related diseases and enhance lifespan in humans.

The current findings provide hope that safe and effective treatments may be developed to mitigate age-related diseases and enhance lifespan in humans. Male C57BL/6J mice obtained at 12 weeks of age were maintained on a standard purified mouse diet (AIN-93G) until 56 weeks of age prior to the start of the experiment. Beginning at 56 weeks of age, the SD group was fed a standard AIN-93G diet for the duration of the study. Three separate groups were placed on a high-fat diet (HFD) (AIN-93G modified by the addition of hydrogenated coconut oil to provide 60% of calories from fat) or HFD + 30mg/kg body weight SRT1720 (HFD-L) or 100mg/kg body weight SRT1720 (HFD-H) and remained on those diets throughout the study. All mice were fed ad libitum. Food intake and body weight were measured biweekly for the duration of the study.

Project description:Curcumin, a yellow pigment extracted from the rhizome of the plant Curcuma longa (turmeric) has been widely used as a spice and herbal medicine in Asia. It has been suggested to have many biological activities such as anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, chemopreventive, and anti-neurodegenerative properties. We evaluated the impact of curcumin on lifespan, fecundity, feeding rate, oxidative stress, locomotion and gene expression in two different wild type Drosophila melanogaster strains, Canton-S and Ives, under two different experimental conditions. We report that curcumin extended the lifespan of two different strains of Drosophila and was accompanied by protection against oxidative stress, improvement in locomotion and chemopreventive effects. Curcumin also modulated the expression of several aging related genes (genes with age-dependent changes in gene expression) such as mth, thor, InR, and JNK. In order to evaluate the impact of curcumin and aging on gene expression, we first determined which genes were affected by aging alone in Canton S flies. Age-related changes in gene expression were defined as changes in expression levels that occurred between 3 and 40 days of age (median lifespan). Among the 18,880 probe sets in the Affymetrix GeneChip® Drosophila Genome 2.0 Array, 1,383 genes (Data on file, 7.3%, P < 0.05) had statistically significant changes in expression levels during this time frame. We next determined the effect of curcumin on gene expression levels in young and aged Canton S flies. Gene expression were defined as changes in expression levels that occurred between 3 and 40 days of aged flies with or without curcumin-feeding.

Project description:Transcriptional regulation plays an important role in the control of gene expression during aging. However, translation efficiency likely plays an equally important role in determining protein abundance, but has been relatively under studied in this context. Here we used RNA-seq and ribosome profiling to investigate the role of translational regulation in lifespan extension by CAN1 gene deletion in yeast. Through comparison of the transcriptional and translational changes in cells lacking CAN1 with other long-lived mutants, we were able to identify critical regulatory factors, including transcription factors and mRNA-binding proteins, that coordinate transcriptional and translational responses. Together, our data support a model in which deletion of CAN1 extends replicative lifespan through increased translation of proteins that facilitate cellular response to stress. This study extends our understanding of the importance of translational control in regulating stress resistance and longevity.

Project description:Environmental factors such as temperature can modulate animal’s lifespan. However, the underlying mechanisms remain largely undefined. Through proteomic analysis of C. elegans at different time points (young adult, middle age, and old age) and under two temperature conditions (20°C and 25°C), we found that temperature affects C. elegans lifespan largely by modulating the proteostasis. Surprisingly, although animals live shorter at the higher temperature, we found that worms cultured at 25°C for one day at early adulthood promotes the protein homeostasis by decreasing the synthesis and increasing the degradation, suggesting the beneficial effects. Consistent with the finding, animals shifting from 20°C to 25°C for 24 hours between the larval L4 to adult Day 3 stages indeed live longer and are more resistant to stresses. Furthermore, we found that the one-day thermal induced lifespan extension is mediated by the FOXO transcriptional factor DAF-16. These results reveal an unexpected and complicated mechanism underlying the temperature effects on aging, which could potentially aid to develop strategies for treating aging related diseases.
