HGPS cells show morphological abnormalities of the nuclear membrane, reduced rate of cell proliferation, accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), enhanced apoptosis and expression of senescence markers. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a growth factor-like lipid mediator that regulates multiple physiological functions via activation of six LPA GPCR. Using quantitative real-time PCR method, we showed that Lpar2 and Lpar3 transcripts were up-regulated in HEK-293 transfected with the mutant progerin from HGPS. We applied CM-H2DCHDA-stain for detection of generation of ROS and SA-β-gal staining as indication of the degrees of cellular senescence. The effects of LPA2 and LPA3 were monitored using either chemical agonists or shRNA for both receptors in HGPS HEK-293. Activation of LPA2 accelerated the aging process of HGPS cells, whereas LPA3 reduced it. Our preliminary results demonstrated that activation of LPA2 promotes the aging progress in HGPS cells, while LPA3 alleviates it. Thus, our preliminary data from HGPS cell model suggests an opposite role of LPA2 and LPA3 in HGPS. In the first year of this 3 years grant, we propose to clarify the detailed regulatory mechanism of LPA receptors in cell senescence, including the relationship among LPA, ROS induction and DNA damage in the HGPS cell model. In the following two years, we propose to establish HGPS animal models to study the systematic effects of LPA receptors on aging process, such a zebrafish. LPA2 or LPA3 knockout animals will mate with HGPS individuals to investigate the roles of these receptors during the premature aging process. At the last year, we proposed to select specific ligands for LPA receptors. The potential effects of LPA receptors agonists or antagonists to prevent aging process will be determined in HGPS animals for future clinical application.水解磷酸脂水解磷酸脂受器早衰症A 型合纖層蛋白早衰蛋白活性氧物種Lysophosphatidic acidLysophosphatidic acid receptorHGPSLamin AProgerinROS,水解磷酸脂受器於典型早衰症致病機制之功能研究
