Bidooki SH, Navarro MA, Fernandes SCM, Osada J. Thioredoxin Domain Containing 5 (TXNDC5): Friend or Foe? Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:3134-3163. [PMID: 38666927 PMCID: PMC11049379 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46040197] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/30/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This review focuses on the thioredoxin domain containing 5 (TXNDC5), also known as endoplasmic reticulum protein 46 (ERp46), a member of the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family with a dual role in multiple diseases. TXNDC5 is highly expressed in endothelial cells, fibroblasts, pancreatic β-cells, liver cells, and hypoxic tissues, such as cancer endothelial cells and atherosclerotic plaques. TXNDC5 plays a crucial role in regulating cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and antioxidative stress. Its potential significance in cancer warrants further investigation, given the altered and highly adaptable metabolism of tumor cells. It has been reported that both high and low levels of TXNDC5 expression are associated with multiple diseases, such as arthritis, cancer, diabetes, brain diseases, and infections, as well as worse prognoses. TXNDC5 has been attributed to both oncogenic and tumor-suppressive features. It has been concluded that in cancer, TXNDC5 acts as a foe and responds to metabolic and cellular stress signals to promote the survival of tumor cells against apoptosis. Conversely, in normal cells, TXNDC5 acts as a friend to safeguard cells against oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Therefore, TXNDC5 could serve as a viable biomarker or even a potential pharmacological target.

Abstract
Thioredoxin domain containing protein-5 (TXNDC5), also known as endothelial protein-disulfide isomerase (Endo-PDI), is confined to the endoplasmic reticulum through the structural endoplasmic reticulum retention signal (KDEL), is a member of the PDI protein family and is highly expressed in the hypoxic state. TXNDC5 can regulate the rate of disulfide bond formation, isomerization and degradation of target proteins through its function as a protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), thereby altering protein conformation, activity and improving protein stability. Several studies have shown that there is a significant correlation between TXNDC5 gene polymorphisms and genetic susceptibility to inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid, fibrosis and tumors. In this paper, we detail the expression characteristics of TXNDC5 in a variety of diseases, summarize the mechanisms by which TXNDC5 promotes malignant disease progression, and summarize potential therapeutic strategies to target TXNDC5 for disease treatment.

TBX15 facilitates malignant progression of glioma by transcriptional activation of TXDNC5. iScience 2024; 27:108950.

Abstract
T-box transcription factor 15 (TBX15) plays important role in various cancers; however, its expression and role in glioma is still unclear. In this study, our findings indicated that TBX15 was increased in gliomas compared to normal brain tissues, and high levels of TBX15 were related to poor survival. Furthermore, TBX15 silencing in glioma cells not only inhibited their proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, but also weakened their ability to recruit macrophages and polarize the latter to the M2 subtype. Mechanism study indicated that thioredoxin domain containing 5 (TXNDC5) lies downstream of TBX15. Furthermore, rescue assays verified that the role of TBX15 in glioma cells is dependent on TXNDC5. Moreover, sh-TBX15 loaded into DNA origami nanocarrier suppressed the malignant phenotype of glioma in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, the TBX15/TXNDC5 axis is involved in the genesis and progression of glioma, and is a potential therapeutic target.

The Tumor Suppressor SOCS1 Diminishes Tolerance to Oxidative Stress in Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:292. [PMID: 38254783 PMCID: PMC10814246 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16020292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
SOCS1 is a tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recently, we showed that a loss of SOCS1 in hepatocytes promotes NRF2 activation. Here, we investigated how SOCS1 expression in HCC cells affected oxidative stress response and modulated the cellular proteome. Murine Hepa1-6 cells expressing SOCS1 (Hepa-SOCS1) or control vector (Hepa-Vector) were treated with cisplatin or tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP). The induction of NRF2 and its target genes, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, cell survival and cellular proteome profiles were evaluated. NRF2 induction was significantly reduced in Hepa-SOCS1 cells. The gene and protein expression of NRF2 targets were differentially induced in Hepa-Vector cells but markedly suppressed in Hepa-SOCS1 cells. Hepa-SOCS1 cells displayed an increased induction of reactive oxygen species but reduced lipid peroxidation. Nonetheless, Hepa-SOCS1 cells treated with cisplatin or t-BHP showed reduced survival. GCLC, poorly induced in Hepa-SOCS1 cells, showed a strong positive correlation with NFE2L2 and an inverse correlation with SOCS1 in the TCGA-LIHC transcriptomic data. A proteomic analysis of Hepa-Vector and Hepa-SOCS1 cells revealed that SOCS1 differentially modulated many proteins involved in diverse molecular pathways, including mitochondrial ROS generation and ROS detoxification, through peroxiredoxin and thioredoxin systems. Our findings indicate that maintaining sensitivity to oxidative stress is an important tumor suppression mechanism of SOCS1 in HCC.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a type of regulated cell death characterized by lipid peroxidation and subsequent damage to the plasma membrane. Here, we report a ferroptosis resistance mechanism involving the upregulation of TXNDC12, a thioredoxin domain-containing protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum. The inducible expression of TXNDC12 during ferroptosis in leukemia cells is inhibited by the knockdown of the transcription factor ATF4, rather than NFE2L2. Mechanistically, TXNDC12 acts to inhibit lipid peroxidation without affecting iron accumulation during ferroptosis. When TXNDC12 is overexpressed, it restores the sensitivity of ATF4-knockdown cells to ferroptosis. Moreover, TXNDC12 plays a GPX4-independent role in inhibiting lipid peroxidation. The absence of TXNDC12 enhances the tumor-suppressive effects of ferroptosis induction in both cell culture and animal models. Collectively, these findings demonstrate an endoplasmic reticulum-based anti-ferroptosis pathway in cancer cells with potential translational applications.

Abstract
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and its superfamilies are mainly endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident proteins with essential roles in maintaining cellular homeostasis, via thiol oxidation/reduction cycles, chaperoning, and isomerization of client proteins. Since PDIs play an important role in ER homeostasis, their upregulation supports cell survival and they are found in a variety of cancer types. Despite the fact that the importance of PDI to tumorigenesis remains to be understood, it is emerging as a new therapeutic target in cancer. During the past decade, several PDI inhibitors has been developed and commercialized, but none has been approved for clinical use. In this review, we discuss the properties and redox regulation of PDIs within the ER and provide an overview of the last 5 years of advances regarding PDI inhibitors.
