Yeast longevity promoted by reversing aging-associated decline in heavy isotope content

Abstract: Dysregulation of metabolism develops with organismal aging. Both genetic and environmental manipulations promote longevity by effectively diverting various metabolic processes against aging. How these processes converge on the metabolome is not clear. Here we report that the heavy isotopic forms of common elements, a universal feature of metabolites, decline in yeast cells undergoing chronological aging. Supplementation of deuterium, a heavy hydrogen isotope, through heavy water (D2O) uptake extends yeast chro… Show more

“…A hypothesis has been put forward that the increased uptake of the heavy isotope in a biological system would affect the kinetics of biochemical reactions, increase the stability of the biomolecules and organism longevity [9,10]. Supporting this view, the relative abundance of heavy isotope-containing metabolites in yeast exhibited an ageing-associated trend, with most abundant amino acids declining in their 13 C and 2 H content in senescent cultures [11]. The authors hypothesized that cells might gradually lose the ability to retain heavy metabolites with ageing and, by introducing D 2 O in the culture medium, they were able to slow down this metabolic deterioration and ageing.…”

“…We normalized metabolite extraction against tissue weight to ensure that metabolite measurements across different organs and age groups are directly comparable in this study. Untargeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LCMS) was performed to simultaneously assess the metabolite composition and heavy isotope contents in metabolites, as previously described (Li and Snyder, 2016b). When operating at a mass resolution of 100,000 and acquired in profile mode, monoisotopic mass peaks can be discerned and measured around the M+1 mass peaks for heavy isotopes 13 C, 2 H, 15 N, and 33 S, and around the M+2 mass peaks for heavy isotopes 18 O and 34 S. One example for the metabolite taurine is shown in Fig.…”

“…Since our clustering analysis using only the amino acid profiles could, at least in part, separate different organs of different ages from each other, we wonder whether the common HICs in amino acids could show certain age-related changes, which might also reflect a global change of other metabolites. Taking the advantage of high mass resolution used in our LCMS acquisition, we quantified the common HICs in amino acids as previously described (Li and Snyder, 2016b). As an example, the quantification of total metabolites (total count), as well as the relative abundance of 13 C, 15 N and 34 S isotopic forms of methionine in three organs of three different ages was shown in Fig.…”

“…Calorie restriction is found to extend chorological lifespan through moderate increase of hydrogen peroxide that leads to activation of superoxide dismutase and inhibition of superoxide anions (Mesquita et al, 2010; Weinberger et al, 2010). Heavy water can suppress endogenous ROS and extend yeast CLS (Li & Synder, 2016). …”
