Abstract
The serine/threonine protein kinase ATM (ataxia-telangiectasia mutated) performs a number of functions in the cell that are interrelated with the aging process. In addition to regulating the cellular response to DNA damage, ATM phosphorylates vacuolar ATPase, leading to lysosome degradation and cellular senescence. In this work, we analysed the geroprotective potential of KU-60019, a selective ATM inhibitor, using individuals of three Drosophila species with different lifespans. KU-60019 was shown to increase the lifespan of individuals of the long-lived species D. virilis and individuals of a species with moderate lifespan D. melanogaster. However, in individuals of the short-lived species D. kikkawai, longevity is reduced after KU-60019 treatment. At the same time, KU-60019 treatment increases survival of Drosophila individuals of the three species under hyperthermia, oxidative stress and starvation, but has no effect on age-dependent changes in the level of locomotor activity. Suppression of tefu gene expression (ATM homologue) by RNA interference also causes an increase in longevity and stress tolerance of D. melanogaster individuals compared to individuals of control lines. Thus, the effect of KU-60019 on longevity varies depending on the Drosophila species, which may be related to the previously established differences of transcriptomes in the studied species and requires further experimental study.
