Abstract
Recently, biomedical research has increasingly investigated physical plasma as an innovative therapeutic approach with a number of therapeutic biomedical effects. It is known from radiation and chemotherapy that these applications can lead to the induction and activation of primarily cytoprotective heat shock proteins (HSP). HSP protect cells and tissues from physical, (bio)chemical, and physiological stress and, ultimately, along with other mechanisms, govern resistance and treatment failure. These mechanisms are well known and comparatively well studied in drug therapy. For therapies in the field of physical plasma medicine, however, extremely little data are available to date. In this review article, we provide an overview of the current studies on the interaction of physical plasma with the cellular HSP system.

[PMID: 37252119 PMCID: PMC10219228 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1195464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) is a small chaperone protein that is overexpressed in a variety of cellular stress states. It is involved in regulating proteostasis and protecting cells from multiple sources of stress injury by stabilizing protein conformation and promoting the refolding of misfolded proteins. Previous studies have confirmed that HSP27 is involved in the development of cardiovascular diseases and plays an important regulatory role in this process. Herein, we comprehensively and systematically summarize the involvement of HSP27 and its phosphorylated form in pathophysiological processes, including oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and apoptosis, and further explore the potential mechanisms and possible roles of HSP27 in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Targeting HSP27 is a promising future strategy for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Small heat shock proteins (SHSPs) are conserved proteins that participate in many cellular functions like preventing protein aggregation and stress response. However, their role in responding to nanoparticles (NPs) has not yet been explained. We used a chicken embryo model to investigate the effects of two different forms of iron oxide-NPs (IONPs) on the mRNA expression of HSPB1, HSPB5, HSPB8, and HSPB9 in cerebral tissue. Two hundred-ten fertilized eggs were randomly divided into seven groups (30 eggs/group; 10 eggs/replicate). Three groups received 100 ppm, 250 ppm, and 500 ppm of Fe2O3-NPs, respectively. Three other groups received 100 ppm, 250 ppm, and 500 ppm of Fe3O4-NPs, respectively, and one group remained untreated as a control. The NPs were given by in ovo method (0.3 ml/egg) only once on the first day of the embryonic period. Samples from cerebrums were collected on day 20 for gene expression analyses. HSPB1, HSPB5, HSPB8, and HSPB9 were all expressed in both normal and IONPs exposed cerebrums. SHSPs tested were differentially expressed in response to various concentrations of IONPs. The highest expression levels in response to Fe2O3-NPs and Fe3O4-NPs were observed for HSPB5 and HSPB9, respectively. The greatest gene expression changes due to the Fe2O3-NPs and Fe3O4-NPs exposure observed for HSPB1 and HSPB5, respectively. The results suggest a protective cellular mechanism against IONPs through SHSPs and recommend that expression profiling of SHSPs be included in the study of nanotoxicity.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke, which is the second highest cause of death and the leading cause of disability, represents ~71% of all strokes globally. Some studies have found that the key elements of the pathobiology of stroke is immunity and inflammation. Microglia are the first line of defense in the nervous system. After stroke, the activated microglia become a double-edged sword, with distinct phenotypic changes to the deleterious M1 types and neuroprotective M2 types. Therefore, ways to promote microglial polarization toward M2 phenotype after stroke have become the focus of attention in recent years. In this review, we discuss the process of microglial polarization, summarize the alternation of signaling pathways and epigenetic regulation that control microglial polarization in ischemic stroke, aiming to find the potential mechanisms by which microglia can be transformed into the M2 polarized phenotype.

Br J Pharmacol 2020; 177:5046-5062. [PMID: 32559815 DOI: 10.1111/bph.15169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2019] [Revised: 06/01/2020] [Accepted: 06/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The development of antinociceptive morphine tolerance is a clinically intractable problem. Earlier work has demonstrated the pivotal roles of PDGF and its receptor PDGFRβ in morphine tolerance. Here, we have investigated the role of spinal heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) in morphine tolerance and its relationship with PDGFRβ activation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Rats were treated with morphine for 9 days, and its anti-nociceptive effect against thermal pain was evaluated by a tail-flick latency test. Western blot, real-time PCR, immunofluorescent staining, and various antagonists, agonists, and siRNA lentiviral vectors elucidated the roles of HSP27, PDGFRβ, and related signalling pathways in morphine tolerance. KEY RESULTS Chronic morphine administration increased expression and phosphorylation of HSP27 in the spinal cord. Down-regulating HSP27 attenuated the development of morphine tolerance. PDGFRβ antagonism inhibited HSP27 activation and attenuated and reversed morphine tolerance. PDGFRβ induction increased HSP27 expression and activation and partly decreased morphine analgesia. PDGFRβ inhibition reduced Akt and p38 MAPK activity in morphine tolerance. PI3K and p38 inhibitors reversed morphine tolerance and suppressed morphine-induced HSP27 phosphorylation. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS This study demonstrated for the first time that spinal HSP27 participates in PDGFRβ-mediated morphine tolerance via the PI3K/Akt and p38 MAPK signalling pathways. These findings suggest a potential clinical strategy for prolonging the antinociceptive effects of opioids during long-term pain control.

Abstract
The goal of this review was to summarize reported studies focusing on cellular reductive stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, cardiomyopathy, dithiothreitol- (DTT-) induced reductive stress, and reductive stress-related free radical reactions published in the past five years. Reductive stress is considered to be a double-edged sword in terms of antioxidation and disease induction. As many underlying mechanisms are still unclear, further investigations are obviously warranted. Nonetheless, reductive stress is thought to be caused by elevated levels of cellular reducing power such as NADH, glutathione, and NADPH; and this area of research has attracted increasing attention lately. Albeit, we think there is a need to conduct further studies in identifying more indicators of the risk assessment and prevention of developing heart damage as well as exploring more targets for cardiomyopathy treatment. Hence, it is expected that further investigation of underlying mechanisms of reductive stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction will provide novel insights into therapeutic approaches for ameliorating reductive stress-induced cardiomyopathy.
