FOX genes include 19 highly conserved, structurally related families from FoxA to FoxS (Sridhar Hannenhalli and Klaus H. Kaestner, 2009). Different publications mentioned the role of FOXgenes in aging processes.

One of the main factors of aging is telomere attrition. Telomeres modulate Rb and p53, that decrease PGC-1α and PGC-1β expression (Sahin and Depinho, 2012) and activates the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21CIP1.16 H. Shelterin (consists of Tin2, Rap1, TRF1, TRF2, Pot1-TPP1 heterodimer) protects telomers and play a role in mtDNA damage. Telomeric heterochromatin is influenced by lncRNA TERRA via binding to TRF1, TRF2,ORC, HP1 and H3K9me3(Scaffidi et al., 2005; Han and Brunet, 2011).

Tanabe et al. described 2011 in „FOXP2 Promotes the Nuclear Translocation of POT1, but FOXP2 (R553H), Mutation Related to Speech-Language Disorder, Partially Prevents It“, how

FOXP2 influences on POT1 (protection of telomeres 1) as a FOXP2-associated protein. (Tanabe et al. reported protection of nuclear-colocated telomerase.) This gene POT1 as member of the telombin family encodes a nuclear protein involved in telomere maintenance. The loss of its POT1 function induces the cell arrest. The researchers identified that POT1 is alone localized in the cytoplasm but co-localized with FOXP2 and the forkhead domain of FOXP2 in nuclei. FOXP2 with mutated nuclear localization signals as well as R553H mutated forkhead, which is associated with speech-language disorder, prevented the nuclear translocation of POT1. The authors propose FOXP2 as a binding partner for the nuclear translocation of POT1.

According to Multanii and Chang, 2007 „WRN at telomeres: implications for aging and cancer“

POT1 is critically important for telomere extension by telomerase, POT1 functions to negatively regulate telomere length by competing with telomerase for access to the telomeric substrate.

Review Wohlgemuth et al, 2014 showed that FOXP2 also provided the NMDAR-mediated neuronal plasticity affecting MAPKK. It is known that Aging also influences free radicals via Fc-gamma receptor and phagocytosis via p42/p44 MAPK signalling pathways and aging relevant ROS activate inflammatory cascade reaction via JAK/STAT, NF-κB/MAPK.

Molina-Serrano et al. showed 2019 in „Histone Modifications as an Intersection Between Diet and Longevity“ that Lysine 4 on histone H3 can be found in one of three possible methylated forms: mono, di or trimethylated (H3K4me1, -2, and -3).The trimethylated form usually localizes at the promoter of actively transcribed genes (Santos-Rosa et al., 2002), and has been shown to have a strong implication with aging in several model organisms. S. cerevisiae H3K4 methyltransferase complex COMPASS mutants had significantly reduced lifespan (Smith et al., 2008; Ryu et al., 2014; Cruz et al., 2018). “H3K9me3 was only associated with antioxidant genes in females (Strakovsky et al., 2014). Paternal HF diet changed the epigenome in spermatozoa and offspring liver. Specifically, under HF diet, H3K4me was enriched in paternal sperm around the transcriptional start site (TSS) of genes involved in development regulatory processes such as Hoxd11, Hoxd13, Bai3, Foxp2, and Foxa2. In contrast, in the offspring liver, H3K4me was enriched in genes controlling lipid biosynthesis, fatty acid synthesis and the oxidation-reduction process (Terashima et al., 2015).Aging relevant H3K27ac and H3K14ac are acetylated via p300/CBP and its co-activator CREB. cAMP responsive CREB expression is responsible to fasting. So CBP, CREB, CRTC2 and TAF-4 activate together gluconeogenesis genes (Altarejos and Montminy, 2011)” (Molina-Serrano et al., 2019, p.11)

FOXP2 indirectly regulates the FEZF2, the RELN, the FOXO1 and the DYRK1A genes via theRUNX-AUTS2-TBR1cascade In a feedback loop the FEZF2 regulates FOXP2 expression. (Molyneaux et al., 2005) TBR1 also regulates RELN expression (Chen et al., 2002). The RELN in turn regulates FOXO1 expression, which is also indirectly regulated by RUNX2 (Kuhlwilm et al., 2013). It would be of great scientific interest to investigate further whether and to what extent FOXP2 expression via FOXO interaction can influence tumorigenesis and antiaging, as FOXO genes are generally known for their importance in cell cycle and apoptosis. (Kops et al., 2002)

Gascoyne et al. suggested 2015 in „The Forkhead Transcription Factor FOXP2 Is Required for Regulation of p21WAF1/CIP1 in 143B Osteosarcoma Cell Growth Arrest“ that “FOXP2 expression could be induced by MAPK pathway inhibition in growth-arrested 143B cells, but not in traditional cell line models of osteoblast differentiation (MG-63, C2C12, MC3T3-E1)” СКАЧАТЬ
