[PMID: 23274159 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2012.12.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2012] [Revised: 12/04/2012] [Accepted: 12/04/2012] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Glucose regulated protein (GRP) located in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was a member of heat shock protein (Hsp) family. The protective mechanism adapted to ER stimuli was closely related to GRP. GRP78, known as BiP, was one of central regulator responded to stress in ER. Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) GRP78 (CiGRP78) was up-regulated in almost tissues, especially in liver, under heat shock (34 °C), cold stress (4 °C) or lead nitrate (0.25 mmol/L) stress. In order to understand the function of CiGRP78 in cellular protection, CiGRP78 ORF cDNA was inserted into the plasmid of pET-32a(+) or pEGFP-C1 respectively, then the recombinant plasmids were transformed or transfected into Escherichia coli cells, mouse myeloma cells (SP2/0) or grass carp kidney cells (CIK). In the cells, CiGRP78 was over-expressed following thermal, cold or Pb(2+) stress. Results showed that CiGRP78 not only contributed to protecting prokaryotic cells against thermal or cold extremes, but also played the same role in SP2/0 and CIK cells. After treatment with heat stress at 42 °C for 1 h, although the viability of the cells declined a lot, CIK cells with pEGFP-C1/CiGRP78 exhibited a higher survival rate (28%) than wild-type cells (7%) or cells with only pEGFP-C1 (5.1%). When the time lag extended to 2.5 h, the survival rates were 19%, 5.7%, 4.8% respectively. In addition, CiGRP78 would also provide a transient cytoplasm protection against Pb(2+) stress in a dose- and time-dependent manner. After treatment with lead nitrate at concentration of 10 μmol/L for 12 h, 24 h or 36 h, the survival rates of cells with pEGFP-C1 or wild-type cells were 46.7% or 46.7% (12 h), 25% or 22% (24 h), 10% or 11% (36 h) respectively. When the cells were treated with lead nitrate at the concentration of 25 μmol/L, the survival rates of cells with pEGFP-C1 or wild-type cells were 45.5% or 30% (12 h), 16.7% or 25% (24 h), 6.5% or 8% (36 h), respectively. CiGRP78 provided a distinct protection in CIK cells at the low concentration for 24 h. The survival rates of CIK cells with pEGFP-C1/CiGRP78 treated with lead nitrate at concentration of 10 μmol/L or 25 μmol/L were 65.9% or 58.8% respectively. When the cells were treated with lead nitrate at concentration of 50 μmol/L for 24 h, the survival rate of the CIK cells was only about 30%. If the process-time was extended to 36 h, CiGRP78 could not provide any cytoplasm protection for CIK cells.

Regulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors during endoplasmic reticulum stress. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2013; 1833:1612-24. [PMID: 23380704 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2013.01.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 85] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2012] [Revised: 01/13/2013] [Accepted: 01/21/2013] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) performs multiple functions in the cell: it is the major site of protein and lipid synthesis as well as the most important intracellular Ca(2+) reservoir. Adverse conditions, including a decrease in the ER Ca(2+) level or an increase in oxidative stress, impair the formation of new proteins, resulting in ER stress. The subsequent unfolded protein response (UPR) is a cellular attempt to lower the burden on the ER and to restore ER homeostasis by imposing a general arrest in protein synthesis, upregulating chaperone proteins and degrading misfolded proteins. This response can also lead to autophagy and, if the stress can not be alleviated, to apoptosis. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor (IP3R) and IP3-induced Ca(2+) signaling are important players in these processes. Not only is the IP3R activity modulated in a dual way during ER stress, but also other key proteins involved in Ca(2+) signaling are modulated. Changes also occur at the structural level with a strengthening of the contacts between the ER and the mitochondria, which are important determinants of mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake. The resulting cytoplasmic and mitochondrial Ca(2+) signals will control cellular decisions that either promote cell survival or cause their elimination via apoptosis. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: 12th European Symposium on Calcium.

Abstract
Exposure to excessive levels of light induces photoreceptor apoptosis and can be a causative factor in age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However, the cellular events that mediate this apoptotic response are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the roles of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in light-induced cell death in the murine retina and murine photoreceptor cells (661W). Excessive light exposure induced retinal dysfunction, photoreceptor degeneration, and apoptosis. Furthermore, the accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins and the transcriptional expression of ER stress-related factors, including 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78)/immunoglobulin-binding protein (BiP) and C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP), were increased in light-exposed retinas. Light exposure also induced both cell death and up-regulation of polyubiquitinated proteins, S-opsin aggregation, bip and chop mRNAs in 661W cells in vitro. Knock-down of chop mRNA inhibited photoreceptor cell death induced by light exposure. Furthermore, treatment with BiP inducer X (BIX), an ER stress inhibitor, induced bip mRNA and reduced both chop expression and light-induced photoreceptor cell death. These data indicate that excessive ER stress may induce photoreceptor cell death in light-exposed retinas via activation of the CHOP-dependent apoptotic pathway, suggesting that the ER stress may play a pivotal role in light exposure-induced retinal damage.

Abstract
The loss of Ca(2+) homeostasis during cerebral ischemia is a hallmark of impending neuronal demise. Accordingly, considerable cellular resources are expended in maintaining low resting cytosolic levels of Ca(2+). These include contributions by a host of proteins involved in the sequestration and transport of Ca(2+), many of which are expressed within intracellular organelles, including lysosomes, mitochondria as well as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Ca(2+) sequestration by the ER contributes to cytosolic Ca(2+) dynamics and homeostasis. Furthermore, within the ER Ca(2+) plays a central role in regulating a host of physiological processes. Conversely, impaired ER Ca(2+) homeostasis is an important trigger of pathological processes. Here we review a growing body of evidence suggesting that ER dysfunction is an important factor contributing to neuronal injury and loss post-ischemia. Specifically, the contribution of the ER to cytosolic Ca(2+) elevations during ischemia will be considered, as will the signalling cascades recruited as a consequence of disrupting ER homeostasis and function.

Abstract
The mood stabilizers lithium and valproic acid (VPA) are traditionally used to treat bipolar disorder (BD), a severe mental illness arising from complex interactions between genes and environment that drive deficits in cellular plasticity and resiliency. The therapeutic potential of these drugs in other central nervous system diseases is also gaining support. This article reviews the various mechanisms of action of lithium and VPA gleaned from cellular and animal models of neurologic, neurodegenerative, and neuropsychiatric disorders. Clinical evidence is included when available to provide a comprehensive perspective of the field and to acknowledge some of the limitations of these treatments. First, the review describes how action at these drugs' primary targets--glycogen synthase kinase-3 for lithium and histone deacetylases for VPA--induces the transcription and expression of neurotrophic, angiogenic, and neuroprotective proteins. Cell survival signaling cascades, oxidative stress pathways, and protein quality control mechanisms may further underlie lithium and VPA's beneficial actions. The ability of cotreatment to augment neuroprotection and enhance stem cell homing and migration is also discussed, as are microRNAs as new therapeutic targets. Finally, preclinical findings have shown that the neuroprotective benefits of these agents facilitate anti-inflammation, angiogenesis, neurogenesis, blood-brain barrier integrity, and disease-specific neuroprotection. These mechanisms can be compared with dysregulated disease mechanisms to suggest core cellular and molecular disturbances identifiable by specific risk biomarkers. Future clinical endeavors are warranted to determine the therapeutic potential of lithium and VPA across the spectrum of central nervous system diseases, with particular emphasis on a personalized medicine approach toward treating these disorders.

Abstract
A single intracerebroventricular injection of β-amyloid 25-35 peptide (Aβ(25-35)) (9 nmol/mouse) induces the spatial cognitive deterioration and approximately 50% loss of pyramidal cells in hippocampal CA1 region within 1 week. The present study focused on exploring the effects of neurosteroid pregnenolone sulfate (PREGS), in comparison with the selective agonists of sigma-1 receptor (σ(1)R) and α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR), on the cognitive deficits and the death of pyramidal cells in Aβ(25-35)-mice. Herein, we reported that the administration of PREGS (1-100 mg/kg) for 7 days after Aβ(25-35)-injection could dose-dependently ameliorate the cognitive deficits and attenuate the apoptosis of pyramidal cells. Either the σ(1)R antagonist NE100 or the α7nAChR antagonist MLA could block the neuroprotection of PREGS in Aβ(25-35)-mice. Both the σ(1)R agonist PRE084 and the α7nAChR agonist DMXB could mimic the PREGS-neuroprotection against the Aβ(25-35)-neurotoxicity. The neuroprotection of PRE084 was attenuated by MLA, but the DMXB-action was insensitive to NE100. The neuroprotection of PREGS, PRE084 or DMXB was blocked by the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002, whereas only the effect of PREGS or PRE084 was sensitive to the MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK) inhibitor U0126. PREGS prevented Aβ(25-35)-inhibited Akt (Serine/threonine kinase) phosphorylation leading to increase in caspase-3 activity, which was σ(1)R- and α7nAChR-dependent. By contrast, PREGS-rescued reduction of extracellular signal-related kinase-2 (ERK2) phosphorylation in Aβ(25-35)-mice only required the activation of σ(1)R. Blockage of PREGS-neuroprotection by LY294002 significantly attenuated its anti-amnesic effect in Aβ(25-35)-mice. The findings indicate that the anti-amnesic effects of PREGS in Aβ(25-35)-mice depend on the σ(1)R- and α7nAChR-mediated neuroprotection.

Abstract
The last decade has witnessed a mammoth progress in the area of brain ageing. Recent gene profiling and brain imaging techniques have made it possible to explore the dark areas of ageing neurons in a new molecular perspective. Many conserved pathways and cellular and molecular mechanisms particularly nuclear mitochondrial molecular interactions are known now. Disruptions in mitochondrial function and reduction in cellular antioxidative and immunoproteins contribute to generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which leads to deteriorated adult neurogenesis, reduced white matter and compromised neural plasticity. The overall deteriorated structure and function of neurons is manifested in form of cognitive decline and prolonged neurodegenerative disorders. Dietary restrictions (DR), physical and mental activities however have been shown to counter these ailments. However more precise molecular dynamics at protein levels is still debatable which is the future task for neuroscientists.

Abstract
Glutamate excitotoxicity contributes to a variety of disorders in the central nervous system, which is triggered primarily by excessive Ca2+ influx arising from overstimulation of glutamate receptors, followed by disintegration of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and ER stress, the generation and detoxification of reactive oxygen species as well as mitochondrial dysfunction, leading to neuronal apoptosis and necrosis. Kainic acid (KA), a potent agonist to the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)/kainate class of glutamate receptors, is 30-fold more potent in neuro-toxicity than glutamate. In rodents, KA injection resulted in recurrent seizures, behavioral changes and subsequent degeneration of selective populations of neurons in the brain, which has been widely used as a model to study the mechanisms of neurodegenerative pathways induced by excitatory neurotransmitter. Microglial activation and astrocytes proliferation are the other characteristics of KA-induced neurodegeneration. The cytokines and other inflammatory molecules secreted by activated glia cells can modify the outcome of disease progression. Thus, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory treatment could attenuate or prevent KA-induced neurodegeneration. In this review, we summarized updated experimental data with regard to the KA-induced neurotoxicity in the brain and emphasized glial responses and glia-oriented cytokines, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1, IL-12 and IL-18.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) unfolded protein responses (UPR) are implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease. Cytotoxic CD8αβ(+) intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) contribute to the development of Crohn's disease-like ileitis in TNF(ΔARE/+) mice. In this study, we characterized the role of ER-UPR mechanisms in contributing to the disease-associated phenotype of cytotoxic IEL under conditions of chronic inflammation. Inflamed TNF(ΔARE/+) mice exhibited increased expression of Grp78, ATF6, ATF4, and spliced XBP1 in CD8αβ(+) IEL but not in CD8αα(+) IEL or in lamina propria lymphocytes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis in CD8αβ(+) T cells showed selective recruitment of ER-UPR transducers to the granzyme B gene promoter. Heterozygous Grp78(-/+) mice exhibited an attenuated granzyme B-dependent cytotoxicity of CD8αβ(+) T cells against intestinal epithelial cells, suggesting a critical activity of this ER-associated chaperone in maintaining a cytotoxic T cell phenotype. Granzyme B-deficient CD8αβ(+) T cells showed a defect in IL-2-mediated proliferation in Grp78(-/+) mice. Adoptively transferred Grp78(-/+) CD8αβ(+) T cells had a decreased frequency of accumulation in the intestine of RAG2(-/-) recipient mice. The tissue pathology in TNF(ΔARE/+) × Grp78(-/+) mice was similar to TNF(ΔARE/+) mice, even though the cytotoxic effector functions of CD8αβ(+) T cells were significantly reduced. In conclusion, ER stress-associated UPR mechanisms promote the development and maintenance of the pathogenic cytotoxic CD8αβ(+) IEL phenotype in the mouse model of Crohn's disease-like ileitis.

Abstract
An accumulation of misfolded proteins can trigger a cellular survival response in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In this study, we found that ER stress-associated gene signatures were highly expressed in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synoviums and synovial cells. Proinflammatory cytokines, such as TNF and IL-1β, increased the expression of GRP78/BiP, a representative ER chaperone, in RA synoviocytes. RA synoviocytes expressed higher levels of GRP78 than osteoarthritis (OA) synoviocytes when stimulated by thapsigargin or proinflammatory cytokines. Down-regulation of Grp78 transcripts increased the apoptosis of RA synoviocytes while abolishing TNF- or TGF-β-induced synoviocyte proliferation and cyclin D1 up-regulation. Conversely, overexpression of the Grp78 gene prevented synoviocyte apoptosis. Moreover, Grp78 small interfering RNA inhibited VEGF(165)-induced angiogenesis in vitro and also significantly impeded synoviocyte proliferation and angiogenesis in Matrigel implants engrafted into immunodeficient mice. Additionally, repeated intraarticular injections of BiP-inducible factor X, a selective GRP78 inducer, increased synoviocyte proliferation and angiogenesis in the joints of mice with experimental OA. In contrast, mice with Grp78 haploinsufficiency exhibited the suppression of experimentally induced arthritis and developed a limited degree of synovial proliferation and angiogenesis. In summary, this study shows that the ER chaperone GRP78 is crucial for synoviocyte proliferation and angiogenesis, the pathological hallmark of RA.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that repeated seizures could induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Inositol-requiring protein 1α (IRE1α) is a vital pro-apoptotic molecule in ER stress, but it remains unclear whether the signaling pathway mediated by IRE1α is involved in human temporal lobe epilepsy. In this report, we investigated IRE1α-mediated ER stress pro-apoptotic signaling pathway in resected anterior temporal neocortex from 32 patients with intractable mesial temporal lobe epilepsy by immunofluorescence and western blot analysis. Our results indicate that chronic epilepsy induces ER stress, and IRE1α-mediated ER stress apoptotic signaling pathway is involved in brain damage after repeated seizures, which may provide a new therapeutic target to prevent brain damage caused by epilepsy.

Abstract
This study aims to explore the expression of GRP78, a marker of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, in the cortex of rat brains acutely exposed to methylmercury (MeHg). Thirty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into six groups, and decapitated 6 hours (h) after intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of MeHg (2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 mg/kg body weight) or normal saline. Protein and mRNA expression of Grp78 were detected by western blotting and real-time PCR, respectively. The results showed that a gradual increase in GRP78 protein expression was observed in the cortex of rats acutely exposed to MeHg (2, 4 or 6 mg/kg). Protein levels peaked in the 6 mg/kg group (p < 0.05 vs. controls), decreased in the 8 mg/kg group, and bottomed below the control level in the 10 mg/kg group. Parallel changes were noted for Grp78 mRNA expression. It may be implied that acute exposure to MeHg induced hormetic dose-dependent changes in Grp78 mRNA and protein expression, suggesting that activation of ER stress is involved in MeHg-induced neurotoxicity. Low level MeHg exposure may induce GRP78 protein expression to stimulate endogenous cytoprotective mechanisms.

Abstract
Background α-Lipoic acid (α-LA) has been studied as an anticancer agent as well as a therapeutic agent for diabetes and obesity. We performed this study to evaluate the anticancer effects and mechanisms of α-LA in a lung cancer cell line, A549. Materials and Methods α-LA-induced apoptosis of A549 cells was detected by fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis and a DNA fragmentation assay. Expression of apoptosis-related genes was analyzed by western blot and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses. Results α-LA induced apoptosis and DNA fragmentation in A549 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. α-LA increased caspase activity and the degradation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. It induced expression of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-related genes, such as glucose-regulated protein 78, C/EBP-homologous protein, and the short form of X-box binding protein-1, and decreased expression of the anti-apoptotic protein, X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production was induced by α-LA, and the antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine decreased the α-LA-induced increase in expression of apoptosis and ER stress-related proteins. Conclusion α-LA induced ER stress-mediated apoptosis in A549 cells via ROS. α-LA may therefore be clinically useful for treating lung cancer.

Abstract
Glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) is an important chaperone protein that is predominantly expressed in the endoplasmic reticulum. The multifunctional roles of GRP78 in protein folding, endoplasmic reticulum calcium binding, cytoprotection, and anti-apoptosis, as well as its function as a receptor on the cell surface, disclose its major involvement in physiological and numerous pathological conditions. Recent advances in mouse models targeting GRP78 allele have revealed the essential roles of GRP78 in development and neurological disorders, as well as accurate neural migration and neuroprotection. This review of correlation between GRP78 and embryogenesis and neurological disorders provides further directions for investigation, as well as potential therapeutics for clinical use.

Abstract
Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is characterized by the development of probably reversible, progressive dysfunction of vital systems in two or more organs, directly undamaged by surgery or other trauma. The organs which have the most common potential dysfunction are lungs, liver, kidneys, heart and gastrointestinal tract. The small intestine is the source of production of proinflammatory mediators leading and contributing to multiorgan failure. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER), after ischemia and post-ischemic reperfusion, is significantly involved in the activation of enterocyte apoptosis. The purpose of this study was to determine the stage of apoptosis in the lungs, initiated through inflammatory response from the small intestine. We analyzed changes in mRNA levels of pro-apoptotic genes Gadd153 (Chop) and anti-apoptotic genes Grp78 (Bip) in the small intestine wall and lung parenchyma. During experimental procedure the rats underwent 60 min of ischemia, caused by complete occlusion of the mesenteric arteria cranialis, with subsequent reperfusion and evaluation after 1 h, 24 h and 30 days (from R1, R24 to R30, respectively, each group n = 8). The gene expression levels were measured using RT-PCR followed by electrophoresis and visualization under UV. In the lungs we detected significantly lower level of expression Grp78 by 45 ± 6.9%. This suggests that ischemic attack and subsequent reperfusion did not promote ER stress in the lungs through induction of Gadd153 expression in the small intestine. There is still no effective approach to the treatment of affected ischemic intestine tissue, to stop the processes with could eventually lead to MODS. Therefore it is necessary to study changes in the damaged tissue at the molecular level and try to suggest possible therapeutic defined routes to the protection of tissue.

Abstract
We previously showed that the Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) and its receptor VPAC1 are negative regulators of megakaryopoiesis and platelet function, but their downstream signaling pathway that inhibits this process still remained unknown. A combined proteomic, transcriptomic, and bioinformatic approach was here used to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying PACAP signaling via VPAC1 in megakaryocytes. Two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis and tandem MS were applied to detect differentially expressed proteins in megakaryocytic CHRF cells stimulated with PACAP. The majority of the 120 proteins modulated by PACAP belong to the class of "cell cycle and apoptosis" proteins. The up- or down-regulated expression of some proteins was confirmed by immunoblot and immunohistochemical analysis. A meta-analysis of our data and 12 other published studies was performed to evaluate signaling pathways involved in different cellular models of PACAP response. From 2384 differentially expressed genes/proteins, 83 were modulated by PACAP in at least three independent studies and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis further identified apoptosis as the highest scored network with NF-κB as a key-player. PACAP inhibited serum depletion-induced apoptosis of CHRF cells via VPAC1 stimulation. In addition, PACAP switched on NF-κB dependent gene expression since higher nuclear levels of the active NF-κB p50/p65 heterodimer were found in CHRF cells treated with PACAP. Finally, a quantitative real time PCR apoptosis array was used to study RNA from in vitro differentiated megakaryocytes from a PACAP overexpressing patient, leading to the identification of 15 apoptotic genes with a 4-fold change in expression and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis again revealed NF-κB as the central player. In conclusion, our findings suggest that PACAP interferes with the regulation of apoptosis in megakaryocytes, probably via stimulation of the NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
Stroke, a major cause of disability and mortality in the elderly, occurs when a cerebral blood vessel is occluded or ruptured, resulting in ischemic damage and death of brain cells. The injury mechanism involves metabolic and oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, apoptosis and inflammatory processes, including activation of glial cells and infiltration of leukocytes. In animal models, dietary energy restriction, by daily calorie reduction (CR) or intermittent fasting (IF), extends lifespan and decreases the development of age-related diseases. Dietary energy restriction may also benefit neurons, as suggested by experimental evidence showing that CR and IF protect neurons against degeneration in animal models. Recent findings by our group and others suggest the possibility that dietary energy restriction may protect against stroke induced brain injury, in part by inducing the expression of neurotrophic factors, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF); protein chaperones, including heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) and glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78); antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutases (SOD) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), silent information regulator T1 (SIRT1), uncoupling proteins and anti-inflammatory cytokines. This article discusses the protective mechanisms activated by dietary energy restriction in ischemic stroke.

Abstract
1-Bromopropane (1-BP) is a compound used as an alternative to ozone-depleting solvents and is neurotoxic both in experimental animals and human. However, the molecular mechanisms of the neurotoxic effects of 1-BP are not well known. To identify the molecular mechanisms of 1-BP-induced neurotoxicity, we analyzed quantitatively changes in protein expression in the hippocampus of rats exposed to 1-BP. Male F344 rats were exposed to 1-BP at 0, 400, or 1000 ppm for 8h/day for 1 or 4 weeks by inhalation. Two-dimensional difference in gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) combined with matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) were conducted to detect and identify protein modification. Changes in selected proteins were further confirmed by western blot. 2D-DIGE identified 26 proteins with consistently altered model (increase or decrease after both 1- and 4-week 1-BP exposures) and significant changes in their levels (p<0.05; fold change ≥ ± 1.2) at least at one exposure level or more compared with the corresponding controls. Of these proteins, 19 were identified by MALDI-TOF-TOF/MS. Linear regression analysis of 1-BP exposure level identified 8 differentially expressed proteins altered in a dose-dependent manner both in 1- and 4-week exposure experiments. The identified proteins could be categorized into diverse functional classes such as nucleocytoplasmic transport, immunity and defense, energy metabolism, ubiquitination-proteasome pathway, neurotransmitter and purine metabolism. Overall, the results suggest that 1-BP-induced hippocampal damage involves oxidative stress, loss of ATP production, neurotransmitter dysfunction and inhibition of ubiquitination-proteasome system.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a morphologically and functionally diverse organelle capable of integrating multiple extracellular and internal signals and generating adaptive cellular responses. It plays fundamental roles in protein synthesis and folding and in cellular responses to metabolic and proteotoxic stress. In addition, the ER stores and releases Ca(2+) in sophisticated scenarios that regulate a range of processes in excitable cells throughout the body, including muscle contraction and relaxation, endocrine regulation of metabolism, learning and memory, and cell death. One or more Ca(2+) ATPases and two types of ER membrane Ca(2+) channels (inositol trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors) are the major proteins involved in ER Ca(2+) uptake and release, respectively. There are also direct and indirect interactions of ER Ca(2+) stores with plasma membrane and mitochondrial Ca(2+)-regulating systems. Pharmacological agents that selectively modify ER Ca(2+) release or uptake have enabled studies that revealed many different physiological roles for ER Ca(2+) signaling. Several inherited diseases are caused by mutations in ER Ca(2+)-regulating proteins, and perturbed ER Ca(2+) homeostasis is implicated in a range of acquired disorders. Preclinical investigations suggest a therapeutic potential for use of agents that target ER Ca(2+) handling systems of excitable cells in disorders ranging from cardiac arrhythmias and skeletal muscle myopathies to Alzheimer disease.

Abstract
Spinal root avulsion leads to a progressive loss of axotomized motoneurons (MNs). Nowadays, there is no effective treatment to prolong MN survival that could permit recovery as a result of delayed surgical repair. Administration of Sigma-1 receptor (Sig-1R) ligands has been reported to promote beneficial effects after several types of neural injury. In order to shed light of whether Sig-1R ligands could promote MN survival after root avulsion, L4-L5 spinal roots were unilaterally avulsed in adult rats and the Sig-1R agonist Pre084 was administered at different doses. The ventral spinal cords of the animals were studied from 3 to 21 days post-operation (DPO) by using histological, immunohistochemical, and Western blot techniques. Daily treatment with 0.25 mg/kg Pre084 significantly promoted MN survival (68% vs 43% in untreated rats) at 21 DPO, an effect that was antagonized by coadministration of BD1063, an antagonist of Sig-1R. There was a reduction in astroglial- associated immunoreactivity in rats treated with Pre084. Moreover, Pre084 produced an increase in the Sig-1R co-chaperone BiP within MNs, and an increase of GDNF expression by astrocytes in the ventral horn early after injury. Although the mechanisms promoting MN survival by Pre084 remain unclear, we hypothesize that it is mediated at least in part through the increase in these cytoprotective factors. Therefore, early application of Sig-1R agonist appears to be a promising therapy to improve MN survival after root avulsion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether RNA interference (RNAi) of the ubiquitin fusion-degradation 1-like protein (Ufd1) could sensitize hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT)-resistant colon cancer cell line SW1116/HCPT to the cytotoxic effect of HCPT. METHODS SW1116/HCPT cells were transfected with plasmids containing Ufd1-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) (Ufd1 knockdown cells) and non-specific siRNA (control cells). A drug sensitivity analysis, 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazol (-z-y1)-3,5-di- phenytetrazoliumromide (MTT) assay was performed on Ufd1 knockdown cells and control cells. After treating the cells with HCPT, a caspase-3 and caspase-4 activity assay, flow cytometric analysis and Western blot for detecting phosphorylated c-Jun N-terminal kinase (p-JNK), phosphorylated protein kinases B (p-Akt), P53, ubiquitin, GADD 153 and Grp78/Bip were performed. RESULTS According to the MTT assay, the survival rate of knockdown cells was significantly lower than that of the control cells (P < 0.01). Both caspase-3 and caspase-4 activity assay showed higher activation level in Ufd1 knockdown cells than that in the control cells (P < 0.01). A flow cytometric analysis revealed more severe S-phase arrest in the Ufd1 knockdown cells than that in the control cells (P < 0.05). The Western blot showed that increasing the concentration of HCPT resulted in a higher expression level of p-JNK, P53, ubiquitin, GADD 153 and Grp78/Bip in the Ufd1 knockdown cells than that in the control cells. CONCLUSION Ufd1 plays a key role in HCPT resistance of SW1116/HCPT and RNAi of Ufd1 can sensitize SW1116/HCPT to the cytotoxic effect of HCPT via strengthening the activation of caspase-3 pathway and disturbing endoplasmic reticulum functions.

Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF) caused by virulent strains of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) is a hemorrhagic disease of pigs and is characterized by disseminated intravascular coagulation, thrombocytopenia, and immunosuppression. Until now, the role of the NS2 protein produced by CSFV in the pathogenesis of CSF is not well understood. In this report, we investigated the function of CSFV NS2 by examining its effects on the pro-inflammatory CXC chemokine, interleukin-8 (IL-8) expression, and cell survival. Stable swine umbilical vein endothelial cell line (SUVEC) expressing CSFV NS2 were established and showed that CSFV NS2 expressing SUVEC cells express approximately 16-fold higher levels of IL-8 as compared to control vector GFP-expressing cells, GFP-E2 expressing cells, and untransfected cells. Further studies showed that CSFV NS2 induced endoplasmic reticulum stress and activated the nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF-κB), which is responsible for the up-regulation of IL-8 and the anti-apoptotic protein, Bcl-2, expression. In addition, the GFPNS2-expressing SUVEC cells were resistant to MG132-induced apoptosis. This study suggested that CSFV NS2 plays an important role in the inflammatory response and in persistent CSFV infection. These findings provide novel information on the function of the poorly characterized CSFV NS2.

Abstract
Despite the capacity of chaperones and other homeostatic components to restore folding equilibrium, cells appear poorly adapted for chronic oxidative stress that increases in cancer and in metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases. Modulation of endogenous cellular defense mechanisms represents an innovative approach to therapeutic intervention in diseases causing chronic tissue damage, such as in neurodegeneration. This article introduces the concept of hormesis and its applications to the field of neuroprotection. It is argued that the hormetic dose response provides the central underpinning of neuroprotective responses, providing a framework for explaining the common quantitative features of their dose-response relationships, their mechanistic foundations, and their relationship to the concept of biological plasticity, as well as providing a key insight for improving the accuracy of the therapeutic dose of pharmaceutical agents within the highly heterogeneous human population. This article describes in mechanistic detail how hormetic dose responses are mediated for endogenous cellular defense pathways, including sirtuin and Nrf2 and related pathways that integrate adaptive stress responses in the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases. Particular attention is given to the emerging role of nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide gases in hormetic-based neuroprotection and their relationship to membrane radical dynamics and mitochondrial redox signaling.

Abstract
Lithium has been used clinically to treat bipolar disorder for over half a century, and remains a fundamental pharmacological therapy for patients with this illness. Although lithium's therapeutic mechanisms are not fully understood, substantial in vitro and in vivo evidence suggests that it has neuroprotective/neurotrophic properties against various insults, and considerable clinical potential for the treatment of several neurodegenerative conditions. Evidence from pharmacological and gene manipulation studies support the notion that glycogen synthase kinase-3 inhibition and induction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor-mediated signaling are lithium's main mechanisms of action, leading to enhanced cell survival pathways and alteration of a wide variety of downstream effectors. By inhibiting N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-mediated calcium influx, lithium also contributes to calcium homeostasis and suppresses calcium-dependent activation of pro-apoptotic signaling pathways. In addition, lithium decreases inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate by inhibiting phosphoinositol phosphatases, a process recently identified as a novel mechanism for inducing autophagy. Through these mechanisms, therapeutic doses of lithium have been demonstrated to defend neuronal cells against diverse forms of death insults and to improve behavioral as well as cognitive deficits in various animal models of neurodegenerative diseases, including stroke, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, fragile X syndrome, as well as Huntington's, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's diseases, among others. Several clinical trials are also underway to assess the therapeutic effects of lithium for treating these disorders. This article reviews the most recent findings regarding the potential targets involved in lithium's neuroprotective effects, and the implication of these findings for the treatment of a variety of diseases.

Abstract
Ca(2+) transfer from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to mitochondria at contact sites between the organelles can induce mitochondrial dysfunction and programmed cell death after stress. The ER-localized chaperone glucose-regulated protein 78kDa (GRP78/BiP) protects neurons against excitotoxicity and apoptosis. Here we show that overexpressing GRP78 protects astrocytes against ischemic injury, reduces net flux of Ca(2+) from ER to mitochondria, increases Ca(2+) uptake capacity in isolated mitochondria, reduces free radical production, and preserves respiratory activity and mitochondrial membrane potential after stress. We conclude that GRP78 influences ER-mitochondrial Ca(2+) crosstalk to maintain mitochondrial function and protect astrocytes from ischemic injury.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been implicated in the pathology of cerebral ischemia. During prolonged period of stress or when the adaptive response fails, apoptotic cell death ensues. Cerebral ischemic postconditioning (Postcond) has been shown to reduce cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in both focal and global cerebral ischemia model. However, the mechanism remains to be understood. This study aimed to elucidate whether Postcond attenuates brain I/R damage by suppressing ER stress-induced apoptosis and if the phosphatidylinositol-3kinase/Akt (PI3K/Akt) pathway is involved. A focal cerebral ischemia rat model was used in the study. Rat brain infarct size and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) positive cells in ischemic penumbra were assessed after reperfusion of the brain. The expressions of C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP), caspase-12, glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and the phosphorylation of Akt (Ser473) in ischemic penumbra were measured after reperfusion. Our results showed that Postcond significantly attenuated brain I/R injury, as shown by reduction in infarct size, cell apoptosis, CHOP expression, caspase-12 activation and increase in GRP78 expression. LY294002, a phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor, increased the number of TUNEL-positive cells suppressed by Postcond in penumbra. In addition, LY294002 diminished the effect of Postcond on the activation of CHOP, caspase-12 and GRP78. These results suggest that Postcond protects brain from I/R injury by suppressing ER stress-induced apoptosis and PI3K/Akt pathway is involved.

Abstract
6-Hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) is a neurotoxin used to establish experimental models of Parkinson's disease. Exposure to 6-OHDA results in cell death associated with oxidative stress. Pretreatments with sublethal oxidative stress and some pharmacological drugs have been shown to exert preconditioning effects on cytotoxicity caused by 6-OHDA. In this study, we investigated whether endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress exerts preconditioning effects on 6-OHDA-induced cytotoxicity in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Pretreatment with ER stress inducers, thapsigargin (Tg) and tunicamycin (Tm), promoted GRP78 mRNA induction and ATF4 translation, which are ER stress markers, under our experimental conditions and protected against the cytotoxicity. The protective effect of Tg was more potent than that of Tm. We also found that Tg induced the expression of the antioxidant gene heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in a dose-dependent manner, whereas Tm had a weak effect on HO-1 induction. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that reactive oxygen species generated by 6-OHDA were more effectively suppressed in cells pretreated with Tg than with Tm. Therefore, it is likely that Tg enhances antioxidative defenses in SH-SY5Y cells compared with Tm. Because actinomycin D inhibited HO-1 induction by Tg, the induction of HO-1 may be regulated at the transcriptional level. Moreover, the specific eIF2α phosphatase inhibitor salubrinal augmented Tg-induced HO-1 expression. Therefore, the downstream signaling pathway of eIF2α might be involved in Tg-induced HO-1 expression. On the other hand, the reporter assay revealed that Tg stimulated the antioxidant response element (ARE) that is located in regulatory regions of antioxidant genes such as HO-1. Taken together, our data suggest that preconditioning effects induced by Tg mediate an adaptive response to 6-OHDA-induced cytotoxicity via phosphorylation of eIF2α and activation of the ARE.

Abstract
Cumulative evidence suggests that programmed cell death (apoptosis) may contribute to the progressive hippocampal sclerosis seen in patients with refractory mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated cell apoptotic pathway has recently emerged as a vital intrinsic pathway, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this process in the epileptic brain remain unclear. We investigated inositol-requiring protein 1α (IRE1α)-mediated ER stress pro-and anti-apoptotic signaling pathways in resected hippocampi from 32 patients with intractable MTLE. Immunoreactivity for the ER stress markers glucose-regulated proteins 78 and 94 was significantly higher in MTLE hippocampi than in controls. The levels of IRE1α, tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factor 2 (TRAF2), apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which together constitute the IRE1α/TRAF2/ASK1/JNK pro-apoptotic signaling pathway, were significantly upregulated in patients with MTLE. Immunoreactivity for caspase-4, a homologue of caspase-12 that is possibly activated by IRE1α via TRAF2 following ER stress, and caspase-3 which was a downstream effector of caspase-4, were both detected in MTLE tissue samples. In contrast, immunoreactivity for caspase-4 and caspase-3 were low or absent in control samples. Simultaneously, the X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1), a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) family transcription factor downstream of IRE1α which can promote cell survival by upregulation of multiple ER-targeted genes, was also overexpressed and activated in MTLE hippocampi. Our data suggest that chronic epilepsy is associated with ER stress, as well as induction of both IRE1α-mediated pro- and anti-apoptotic signaling pathways.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress results from disrupted protein folding triggered by protein mutation or oxidation, reduced proteasome activity, and altered Ca2+ homeostasis. ER stress is accompanied by activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) and cell death pathway. We examined if the UPR and cell death pathway would be activated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). RT-PCR experiments revealed increased splicing of X-box binding protein-1 (XBP-1), an UPR transcription factor, in AD compared with age-matched control. Among target genes of XBP-1, expression of protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), but not glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), was increased in AD, suggesting disturbed activation of the UPR in AD. C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), caspase-3, caspase-4, and caspase-12, downstream mediators of cell death pathway, were activated in AD. Neither the UPR nor cell death pathway was induced in aged Tg2576 mice, a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease that reveals both plaque pathology and some cognitive deficits. The present study suggests that disturbed induction of the UPR and activation of the pro-apoptotic proteins contribute to neuropathological process in AD irrespective of amyloid beta and senile plaque.

Abstract
Background Taurine is a free amino acid present in high concentrations in a variety of organs of mammalians. As an antioxidant, taurine has been found to protect cells against oxidative stress, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Methods In this report, we present evidence to support the conclusion that taurine exerts a protective function against endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induced by H2O2 in PC 12 cells. Oxidative stress was introduced by exposure of PC 12 cells to 250 uM H2O2 for 4 hours. Results It was found that the cell viability of PC 12 cells decreased with an increase of H2O2 concentration ranging from approximately 76% cell viability at 100 uM H2O2 down to 18% at 500 uM H2O2. At 250 uM H2O2, cell viability was restored to 80% by taurine at 25 mM. Furthermore, H2O2 treatment also caused a marked reduction in the expression of Bcl-2 while no significant change of Bax was observed. Treatment with taurine restored the reduced expression of Bcl-2 close to the control level without any obvious effect on Bax. Furthermore, taurine was also found to suppress up-regulation of GRP78, GADD153/CHOP and Bim induced by H2O2, suggesting that taurine may also exert a protective function against oxidative stress by reducing the ER stress. Conclusion In summary, taurine was shown to protect PC12 cells against oxidative stress induced by H2O2. ER stress was induced by oxidative stress and can be suppressed by taurine.

Abstract
We previously reported the effect of a selective inducer of BiP (a BiP inducer X; BIX) after permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in mice. However, in acute stroke, almost all drugs have been used clinically after the onset of events. We evaluated the effect of post-treatment of BIX after permanent MCAO in mice, and examined its neuroprotective properties in in vivo mechanism. BIX (intracerebroventricular injection at 20μg) administered either at 5min or 3h after occlusion reduced both infarct volume and brain swelling, but at 6h after occlusion there was no reduction. BIX protected against the decrease in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, BIX reduced the number of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL)-positive cells induced by the ischemia in ischemic penumbra. These findings indicate that post-treatment with BIX after ischemia has neuroprotective effects against acute ischemic neuronal damage in mice even when given up to 3h after MCAO. BIX may therefore be a potential drug for stroke.

Abstract
To elucidate some physiopsychological effects of a pleasant odor, we analyzed gene expression profiles in the hypothalamus of rats which, under a restraint-stressed condition, inhaled (R)-(-)-linalool. Consequently, 697 probe sets showed significant expression changes in the odorant-inhaling rats subjected to 2 h of restraint stress (false discovery rate < 0.05). We observed up-regulation of 594 among them, including genes related to neuron differentiation and transcriptional regulatory factors. Another important result was that inhalation of (R)-(-)-linalool returned the expression of 49 restraint-regulated genes to a normal condition. In contrast, the inhalation also further up-regulated the expression of 16 restraint-up-regulated genes that included those encoding heat shock proteins as factors to induce some biological responses against stresses. In the present study we thus found the substantial example that, in the hypothalamus involved in feeding behaviors, an inhaled pleasant odor acts to regulate the gene expression related to the functions of neuronal developments to cope with stresses.

Abstract
Targeting endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis may offer an alternative therapeutic strategy for metastatic melanoma. Fenretinide and bortezomib induce apoptosis of melanoma cells but their efficacy may be hindered by the unfolded protein response, which promotes survival by ameliorating endoplasmic reticulum stress. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that inhibition of GRP78, a vital unfolded protein response mediator, increases cell death in combination with endoplasmic reticulum stress-inducing agents. Down-regulation of GRP78 by small-interfering RNA increased fenretinide- or bortezomib-induced apoptosis. Treatment of cells with a GRP78-specific subtilase toxin produced a synergistic enhancement with fenretinide or bortezomib. These data suggest that combining endoplasmic reticulum stress-inducing agents with strategies to down-regulate GRP78, or other components of the unfolded protein response, may represent a novel therapeutic approach for metastatic melanoma.

Abstract
Mucormycosis is a fungal infection of the sinuses, brain, or lungs that causes a mortality rate of at least 50% despite first-line therapy. Because angioinvasion is a hallmark of mucormycosis infections, we sought to define the endothelial cell receptor(s) for fungi of the order Mucorales (the fungi that cause mucormycosis). Furthermore, since patients with elevated available serum iron, including those with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), are uniquely susceptible to mucormycosis, we sought to define the role of iron and glucose in regulating the expression of such a receptor. Here, we have identified glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) as what we believe to be a novel host receptor that mediates invasion and damage of human endothelial cells by Rhizopus oryzae, the most common etiologic species of Mucorales, but not Candida albicans or Aspergillus fumigatus. Elevated concentrations of glucose and iron, consistent with those seen during DKA, enhanced GRP78 expression and the resulting R. oryzae invasion and damage of endothelial cells in a receptor-dependent manner. Mice with DKA, which have enhanced susceptibility to mucormycosis, exhibited increased expression of GRP78 in sinus, lungs, and brain compared with normal mice. Finally, GRP78-specific immune serum protected mice with DKA from mucormycosis. These results suggest a unique susceptibility of patients with DKA to mucormycosis and provide a foundation for the development of new therapeutic interventions for these deadly infections.

Abstract
Repeated exposure to cocaine upregulates endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation is associated with the ER stress response in neurons. In this study, we investigated the involvement of JNK in the regulation of the ER stress response following repeated cocaine administration in the dorsal striatum in vivo. The results showed that systemic injections of cocaine (20 mg/kg) for seven consecutive days increased the induction of p46 JNK (JNK) phosphorylation, immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (BiP), the ER stress-associated protein caspase-12, and behavioral locomotor activity. This enhancement of BiP and caspase-12 expression and locomotor response was reduced by inhibiting JNK. Similar reduction of elevated JNK phosphorylation was induced by blocking dopamine D1 receptors, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, and group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). These data suggest that JNK activation following repeated cocaine administration is required for the regulation of the ER stress protein expression and behavioral alteration in the dorsal striatum. Stimulation of dopamine D1 receptors, NMDA receptors or group I mGluRs participates in the regulation of JNK activation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Age and excessive energy intake/obesity are risk factors for cerebrovascular disease, but it is not known if and how these factors affect the extent of brain damage and outcome in ischemic stroke. We therefore determined the interactions of age and energy intake on the outcome of ischemic brain injury, and elucidated the underlying mechanisms. METHODS We utilized a novel microchip-based immunoaffinity capillary electrophoresis technology to measure a panel of neurotrophic factors, cytokines, and cellular stress resistance proteins in brain tissue samples from young, middle-aged, and old mice that had been maintained on control or energy-restricted diets prior to middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion. RESULTS Mortality from focal ischemic stroke was increased with advancing age and reduced by an intermittent fasting (IF) diet. Brain damage and functional impairment were reduced by IF in young and middle-aged mice, but not in old mice. The basal and poststroke levels of neurotrophic factors (brain-derived neurotrophic factor and basic fibroblast growth factor), protein chaperones (heat shock protein 70 and glucose regulated protein 78), and the antioxidant enzyme heme oxygenase-1 were decreased, whereas levels of inflammatory cytokines were increased in the cerebral cortex and striatum of old mice compared with younger mice. IF coordinately increased levels of protective proteins and decreased inflammatory cytokines in young, but not in old mice. INTERPRETATION Reduction in dietary energy intake differentially modulates neurotrophic and inflammatory pathways to protect neurons against ischemic injury, and these beneficial effects of IF are compromised during aging, resulting in increased brain damage and poorer functional outcome.

Many cationic proteins with cytotoxic activities, such as eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) and eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN), are released from activated eosinophils. ECP, with low RNase activity, is widely used as a biomarker for asthma. ECP inhibits cell viability and induces apoptosis to cells. However, the specific pathway underlying the mechanisms of ECP-induced cytotoxicity remains unclear. This study investigated ECP-induced apoptosis in bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells and elucidated the specific pathway during apoptosis. Results To address the mechanisms involved in ECP-induced apoptosis in human BEAS-2B cells, investigation was carried out using chromatin condensation, cleavage of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), sub-G1 distribution in cell cycle, annexin V labeling, and general or specific caspase inhibitors. Caspase-8-dependent apoptosis was demonstrated by cleavage of caspase-8 after recombinant ECP treatment, accompanied with elevated level of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). Moreover, ECP-induced apoptosis was effectively inhibited in the presence of neutralizing anti-TNF-α antibody. Conclusion In conclusion, our results have demonstrated that ECP increased TNF-α production in BEAS-2B cells and triggered apoptosis by caspase-8 activation through mitochondria-independent pathway.

Abstract
Background Classical swine fever (CSF) caused by virulent strains of Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) is a haemorrhagic disease of pigs, characterized by disseminated intravascular coagulation, thrombocytopoenia and immunosuppression, and the swine endothelial vascular cell is one of the CSFV target cells. In this report, we investigated the previously unknown subcellular localization and function of CSFV NS2 protein by examining its effects on cell growth and cell cycle progression. Results Stable swine umbilical vein endothelial cell line (SUVEC) expressing CSFV NS2 were established and showed that the protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Cellular analysis revealed that replication of NS2-expressing cell lines was inhibited by 20-30% due to cell cycle arrest at S-phase. The NS2 protein also induced ER stress and activated the nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF-κB). A significant increase in cyclin A transcriptional levels was observed in NS2-expressing cells but was accompanied by a concomitant increase in the proteasomal degradation of cyclin A protein. Therefore, the induction of cell cycle arrest at S-phase by CSFV NS2 protein is associated with increased turnover of cyclin A protein rather than the down-regulation of cyclin A transcription. Conclusions All the data suggest that CSFV NS2 protein modulate the cellular growth and cell cycle progression through inducing the S-phase arrest and provide a cellular environment that is advantageous for viral replication. These findings provide novel information on the function of the poorly characterized CSFV NS2 protein.

Abstract
Mercury (Hg) is a widespread environmental contaminant and its organic form, methylmercury (MeHg), has been known as a potent neurotoxic since the Minamata tragedy. In the Amazonian basin, gold mining leads to MeHg biomagnification all along the food web, culminating in piscivorous fish, ultimately responsible for contamination of human beings through fish consumption. In order to assess the biological impact of dietary MeHg on fish at the genome scale, we contaminated zebrafish with MeHg-contaminated food for 25 days (13.5 microg of Hg/g of food). A serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was conducted on the skeletal muscle because this tissue does not perform MeHg demethylation, and 19171 SAGE tags were sequenced from the control library versus 22 261 from the MeHg-contaminated library, corresponding to 5280 different transcripts. Among those identified, 60 genes appeared up-regulated and 15 down-regulated by more than 2 times. A net impact of MeHg was noticed on 14 ribosomal protein genes, indicating a perturbation of protein synthesis. Several genes involved in mitochondrial metabolism, the electron transport chain, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function, detoxification, and general stress responses were differentially regulated, suggesting an onset of oxidative stress and ER stress. Several other genes for which expression varied with MeHg contamination could be clustered in various compartments of the cell's life, such as lipid metabolism, calcium homeostasis, iron metabolism, muscle contraction, and cell cycle regulation. This study reveals the effectiveness of the SAGE approach to acquire a better understanding of the MeHg global effects. Furthermore, this is the first time that the SAGE was used to characterize the effect of a toxicant at the genome scale in an aquatic organism.

Enhanced expression of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) precedes degeneration of fibrocytes in the lateral wall after acute cochlear mitochondrial dysfunction induced by 3-nitropropionic acid. Neurochem Int 2009; 56:487-94. [PMID: 20026213 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuint.2009.12.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2009] [Revised: 11/28/2009] [Accepted: 12/14/2009] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
We previously reported that treatment of the rat cochlea with a mitochondrial toxin, 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP), causes temporary to permanent hearing loss depending on the amount of the drug. Furthermore, apoptosis of cochlear lateral wall fibrocytes, which are important for maintaining the endolymph, is a predominant pathological feature in this animal model. 3-NP is known to induce oxidative stress as well as neuronal apoptosis. C/EBP homologous protein gene (chop) is one of the marker genes induced during endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and is also considered to be involved in apoptosis. To elucidate the molecular mechanism of cochlear fibrocyte apoptosis induced by 3-NP, we studied spatiotemporal expression of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and other signaling molecules related to ER stress as well as the appearance of apoptotic cells in the cochlear lateral wall after 3-NP treatment. Quantitative real-time PCR revealed that chop and activating transcription factor 4 gene (atf-4) showed marked increase within 6h, whereas expression of other ER stress-responsive genes such as grp78 and grp94 did not change. Immunohistochemistry showed that 3-NP treatment caused up-regulation of CHOP, especially in type II and type IV fibrocytes, followed by the appearance of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL)-positive apoptotic cells in the same confined area. Thus, apoptosis of lateral wall fibrocytes induced by 3-NP is likely to be mediated by induction of CHOP. These results contribute clarification of pathological mechanism of cochlear fibrocytes and may lead to development of novel therapeutic strategy for hearing loss.

Abstract
Cytotoxic reactive oxygen species are constantly formed as a by-product of aerobic respiration and are thought to contribute to aging and disease. Cells respond to oxidative stress by activating various pathways, whose balance is important for adaptation or induction of cell death. Our lab recently reported that BiP (GRP78), a proposed negative regulator of the unfolded protein response (UPR), declines during hyperoxia, a model of chronic oxidative stress. Here, we investigate whether exposure to hyperoxia, and consequent loss of BiP, activates the UPR or sensitizes cells to ER stress. Evidence is provided that hyperoxia does not activate the three ER stress receptors IRE1, PERK, and ATF6. Although hyperoxia alone did not activate the UPR, it sensitized cells to tunicamycin-induced cell death. Conversely, overexpression of BiP did not block hyperoxia-induced ROS production or increased sensitivity to tunicamycin. These findings demonstrate that hyperoxia and loss of BiP alone are insufficient to activate the UPR. However, hyperoxia can sensitize cells to toxicity from unfolded proteins, implying that chronic ROS, such as that seen throughout aging, could augment the UPR and, moreover, suggesting that the therapeutic use of hyperoxia may be detrimental for lung diseases associated with ER stress.
