Popis: Deletion of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), a protease that cleaves some but not all IGF1 binding proteins, postpones late-life diseases and extends lifespan in mice, but the mechanism of this effect is unknown. Here we show that PAPP-A knockout (PKO) mice display a set of changes, in multiple tissues, that are characteristic of other varieties of slow-aging mice with alterations in GH production or GH responsiveness, including Ames dwarf, Snell dwarf, and GHRKO mice. PKO mice have elevated UCP1 in brown and white adipose tissues (WAT), and a change in fat-associated macrophage subsets that leads to diminished production of inflammatory cytokines. PKO mice also show increased levels of muscle FNDC5 and its cleavage product, the myokine irisin, thought to cause changes in fat cell differentiation. PKO mice have elevated production of hepatic GPLD1 and plasma GPLD1, consistent with their elevation of hippocampal BDNF and DCX, used as indices of neurogenesis. In contrast, disruption of PAPP-A limited to muscle (“muPKO” mice) produces an unexpectedly complex set of changes, in most cases opposite in direction from those seen in PKO mice. These include declines in WAT UCP1, increases in inflammatory macrophages and cytokines in WAT, and a decline in muscle FNDC5 and plasma irisin. muPKO mice do, however, resemble global PKO mice in their elevation of hippocampal BDNF and DCX. The data for the PKO mice support the idea that these changes in fat, macrophages, liver, muscle, plasma, and brain are consistent and biologically significant features of the slow-aging phenotype in mice. The results on the muPKO mice provide a foundation for further investigation of the complex, local, and global circuits by which PAPP-A modulates signals ordinarily controlled by GH and/or IGF1.
