Abstract
Non-coding RNAs have emerged as important regulators of gene expression and contributors to many diseases. LncRNA Morrbid, a long non-coding RNA, has been widely studied in recent years. Current literature reports that lncRNA Morrbid is involved in various diseases such as tumors, cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory diseases and metabolic disorder. However, controversial conclusions exist in current studies. As a potential therapeutic target, it is necessary to comprehensively review the current evidence. In this work, we carefully review the literature on Morrbid and discuss each of the hot topics related to lncRNA Morrbid.

[PMID: 36611198 PMCID: PMC9824925 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-022-00961-z] [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: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We used microarrays to analyse the changes in long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and mRNAs in aorta tissue in model rats with lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis and determined the lncRNA-mRNA and lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA functional networks. METHODS Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharide, and the lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles in the aorta were evaluated using microarrays. The functions of the differentially expressed mRNAs were analysed using Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses. We then constructed coding/non-coding co-expression and competing endogenous RNA networks to study the mechanisms related to sepsis in rats. RESULTS We identified 503 differentially expressed lncRNAs and 2479 differentially expressed mRNAs in the model rats with lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis. Mitochondrial fission process 1 (MTFP1) was the most significantly down-regulated mRNA. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the significantly down-regulated mRNAs in the sepsis models were in pathways related to mitochondrial structure, function, and energy metabolism. Coding/non-coding co-expression and competing endogenous RNA analyses were conducted using 12 validated lncRNAs in combination with all mRNAs. The coding/non-coding co-expression analysis showed that the 12 validated lncRNAs were mainly regulatory factors for abnormal energy metabolism, including mitochondrial structure damage and aberrant mitochondrial dynamics. The competing endogenous RNA analysis revealed that the potential functions of these 12 lncRNAs might be related to the inflammatory response. CONCLUSION We determined the differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in the aorta of septic rats using microarrays. Further studies on these lncRNAs will help elucidate the mechanism of sepsis at the genetic level and may identify potential therapeutic targets.

MTP18 inhibition triggers mitochondrial hyperfusion to induce apoptosis through ROS-mediated lysosomal membrane permeabilization-dependent pathway in oral cancer. Free Radic Biol Med 2022; 190:307-319. [PMID: 35985563 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2022.08.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2022] [Revised: 08/09/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Although stress-induced mitochondrial hyperfusion (SIMH) exerts a protective role in aiding cell survival, in the absence of mitochondrial fission, SIMH drives oxidative stress-related induction of apoptosis. In this study, our data showed that MTP18, a mitochondrial fission-promoting protein expression, was increased in oral cancer. We have screened and identified S28, a novel inhibitor of MTP18, which was found to induce SIMH and subsequently trigger apoptosis. Interestingly, it inhibited MTP18-mediated mitochondrial fission, as shown by a decrease in p-Drp1 along with increased Mfn1 expression in oral cancer cells. Moreover, S28 induced autophagy but not mitophagy due to the trouble in engulfment of hypoperfused mitochondria. Interestingly, S28-mediated SIMH resulted in the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, leading to the consequent generation of mitochondrial superoxide to induce intrinsic apoptosis. Mechanistically, S28-induced mitochondrial superoxide caused lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP), resulting in decreased lysosomal pH, which impaired autophagosome-lysosome fusion. In this setting, it showed that overexpression of MTP18 resulted in mitochondrial fission leading to mitophagy and inhibition of superoxide-mediated LMP and apoptosis. Further, S28, in combination with FDA-approved anticancer drugs, exhibited higher apoptotic activity and decreased cell viability, suggesting the MTP18 inhibition combined with the anticancer drug could have greater efficacy against cancer.

Abstract
A leading cause of lameness in modern broilers is bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO). While it is known that the components of BCO are bacterial infection, necrosis, and inflammation, the mechanism behind BCO etiology is not yet fully understood. In numerous species, including chicken, mitochondrial dysfunction has been shown to have a role in the pathogenicity of numerous diseases. The mitochondria is a known target for intracellular bacterial infections, similar to that of common causative agents in BCO, as well as a known regulator of cellular metabolism, stress response, and certain types of cell death. This study aimed to determine the expression profile of genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis, dynamics, and function. RNA was isolated form the tibias from BCO-affected and healthy broilers and used to measure target gene expression via real-time qPCR. Mitochondrial biogenesis factors PGC-1α and PGC-1β were both significantly upregulated in BCO along with mitochondrial fission factors OMA1, MTFR1, MTFP1, and MFF1 as well as cellular respiration-related genes FOXO3, FOXO4, and av-UCP. Conversely, genes involved in mitochondrial function, ANT, COXIV, and COX5A showed decreased mRNA levels in BCO-affected tibia. This study is the first to provide evidence of potential mitochondrial dysfunction in BCO bone and warrants further mechanistic investigation into how this dysfunction contributes to BCO etiology.

Thyroid hormone directly activates mitochondrial fission process 1 (Mtfp1) gene transcription during adult intestinal stem cell development and proliferation in Xenopus tropicalis. Gen Comp Endocrinol 2020; 299:113590. [PMID: 32827515 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2020.113590] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2020] [Revised: 08/13/2020] [Accepted: 08/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Thyroid hormone (T3) regulates vertebrate development via T3 receptors (TRs). T3 level peaks during postembryonic development, a period around birth in mammals or metamorphosis in anurans. Anuran metamorphosis offers many advantages for studying T3 and TR function in vivo largely because of its total dependent on T3 and the dramatic changes affecting essentially all organs/tissues that can be easily manipulated. Earlier studies have shown that TRs are both necessary and sufficient for mediating the metamorphic effects of T3. Many candidate TR target genes have been identified during Xenopus tropicalis intestinal metamorphosis, a process that involves apoptotic degeneration of most of the larval epithelial cells and de novo development of adult epithelial stem cells. Among these putative TR target genes is mitochondrial fission process 1 (Mtfp1), a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial gene. Here, we report that Mtfp1gene expression peaks in the intestine during both natural and T3-induced metamorphosis when adult epithelial stem cell development and proliferation take place. Furthermore, we show that Mtfp1 contains a T3-response element within the first intron that is bound by TR to mediate T3-induced local histone H3K79 methylation and RNA polymerase recruitment in the intestine during metamorphosis. Additionally, we demonstrate that the Mtfp1 promoter can be activated by T3 in a reconstituted frog oocyte system in vivo and that this activation is dependent on the intronic TRE. These findings suggest that T3 activates Mtfp1 gene directly via the intronic TRE and that Mtfp1 in turn facilitate adult intestinal stem cell development/proliferation by affecting mitochondrial fission process.

Abstract
Nitrotyrosine, a structural analogue of tyrosine, is present in cells in pathological conditions and is incorporated into tubulin to form tubulin tyrosine nitration, which disrupts the normal function of microtubules. There is limited research on the functional aspects of tubulin tyrosine nitration in different types of tumor. In the present study, the effect of tubulin tyrosine nitration and tubulin tyrosine ligase like 12 (TTLL12) on the proliferation of SCC-25 cells was investigated. TTLL12-overexpressing cell lines were constructed and used to assess the effect of tubulin tyrosine nitration and TTLL12 on the proliferation of SCC-25 cells via western blotting, immunofluorescent and MTT assays. An TTLL12-stably overexpressing SCC-25 cell line and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to establish a novel experiment in vitro for screening anticancer drugs targeting tubulin tyrosine nitration by assessing its sensitivity, specificity and repeatability, and using it to find an effective drug. The results demonstrated that the proliferative rate of the control cells was notably inhibited in the presence of nitrotyrosine compared with that of TTLL12-overexpressing cells. The results of the MTT assay revealed that the proliferation of TTLL12-silenced cells was significantly inhibited compared with that of the control group. The sensitivity, specificity and repeatability of the experiment were positive. It was found that nocodazole could have better anticancer effect than paclitaxel. Taken together, the results of the present study suggest that TTLL12 enhances SCC-25 cell survival in the presence of nitrotyrosine by disrupting nitration of the tyrosine residues of tubulin, and tubulin tyrosine nitration may be developed for the basic research of anticancer drugs.
