Zhao H, Mao H. ERRFI1 exacerbates hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury by promoting hepatocyte apoptosis and ferroptosis in a GRB2-dependent manner. Mol Med 2024; 30:82. [PMID: 38862918 PMCID: PMC11167874 DOI: 10.1186/s10020-024-00837-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Programmed cell death is an important mechanism for the development of hepatic ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury, and multiple novel forms of programmed cell death are involved in the pathological process of hepatic IR. ERRFI1 is involved in the regulation of cell apoptosis in myocardial IR. However, the function of ERRFI1 in hepatic IR injury and its modulation of programmed cell death remain largely unknown. METHODS Here, we performed functional and molecular mechanism studies in hepatocyte-specific knockout mice and ERRFI1-silenced hepatocytes to investigate the significance of ERRFI1 in hepatic IR injury. The histological severity of livers, enzyme activities, hepatocyte apoptosis and ferroptosis were determined. RESULTS ERRFI1 expression increased in liver tissues from mice with IR injury and hepatocytes under oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) conditions. Hepatocyte-specific ERRFI1 knockout alleviated IR-induced liver injury in mice by reducing cell apoptosis and ferroptosis. ERRFI1 knockdown reduced apoptotic and ferroptotic hepatocytes induced by OGD/R. Mechanistically, ERRFI1 interacted with GRB2 to maintain its stability by hindering its proteasomal degradation. Overexpression of GRB2 abrogated the effects of ERRFI1 silencing on hepatocyte apoptosis and ferroptosis. CONCLUSIONS Our results revealed that the ERRFI1-GRB2 interaction and GRB2 stability are essential for ERRFI1-regulated hepatic IR injury, indicating that inhibition of ERRFI1 or blockade of the ERRFI1-GRB2 interaction may be potential therapeutic strategies in response to hepatic IR injury.

Abstract
Remote organ injury, which is a common secondary complication of sterile tissue damage, is a major cause of poor prognosis and is difficult to manage. Here, we report the critical role of tissue-resident macrophages in lung injury after trauma or stroke through the inflammatory response. We found that depleting tissue-resident macrophages rather than disrupting the recruitment of monocyte-derived macrophages attenuated lung injury after trauma or stroke. Our findings revealed that the release of circulating alarmins from sites of distant sterile tissue damage triggered an inflammatory response in lung-resident macrophages by binding to receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) on the membrane, which activated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Mechanistically, ligand-activated RAGE triggered EGFR activation through an interaction, leading to Rab5-mediated RAGE internalization and EGFR phosphorylation, which subsequently recruited and activated P38; this, in turn, promoted RAGE translation and trafficking to the plasma membrane to increase the cellular response to RAGE ligands, consequently exacerbating inflammation. Our study also showed that the loss of RAGE or EGFR expression by adoptive transfer of macrophages, blocking the function of RAGE with a neutralizing antibody, or pharmacological inhibition of EGFR activation in macrophages could protect against trauma- or stroke-induced remote lung injury. Therefore, our study revealed that targeting the RAGE-EGFR signaling pathway in tissue-resident macrophages is a potential therapeutic approach for treating secondary complications of sterile damage.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an upper airway disorder occurring during sleep and is associated with atherosclerosis (AS). AS is a cardiovascular disease caused by environmental and genetic factors, with a high global mortality rate. This study investigated common pathways and potential biomarkers of OSA and AS. Microarray data were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and used to screen for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the OSA and AS datasets. A weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify the co-expression modules of OSA and AS. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operators (LASSO) were used to determine critical biomarkers. Immune cell infiltration analysis was used to investigate the correlation between immune cell infiltration and common biomarkers of OSA and AS. Results revealed that differentially expressed genes may be involved in inflammatory processes, chemokine signaling pathways, and molecular changes in cell adhesion. ERBB receptor feedback inhibitor 1 (ERRFI1) was the best-shared biomarker for OSA and AS. Immune infiltration analysis showed that ERRFI1 expression was correlated with immune cell changes. Changes in immune pathways, inflammatory processes, and cell adhesion molecules may underlie the pathogenesis of both diseases, and ERRFI1 may be a potential diagnostic marker for patients with OSA and AS.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 302:115922. [PMID: 36414212 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.115922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2022] [Revised: 10/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Qingdu Decoction (QDT) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that was derived from Xiaochengqi Decoction, a famous decoction documented in the book of Treatise on Exogenous Febrile Disease in the Eastern Han Dynasty. According to our years of clinical application, QDT showed satisfactory efficacy in the treatment of endotoxemia in acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. AIM OF STUDY In this study, we aimed to systematically evaluate the intervention effect of QDT on endotoxemia in rats and further clarify its potential regulatory mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS The rat model of ACLF endotoxemia was induced by TAA and LPSÂ +Â D-Gal. Then the rats were treated with clinical doses of QDT and lactulose. The rats were divided into four groups: CG, MG, QG and LG. The target microRNA was screened by high-throughput sequencing. The rat weight, liver index, hepatointestinal phenotype, serum biochemical indexes, mast cell activity, and hepatointestinal histopathology were used to evaluate the intervention effect. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression levels of MAZ and its downstream genes ZO-1 and Occludin, and the expression levels of Zonulin and its downstream gene EGFR in colon. Finally, the expression of the miR-34c, MAZ, ZO-1, Occludin, miR-122a, Zonulin, and EGFR in colon was detected by qRT-PCR to further confirm the mechanism of the miR-34c/MAZ/TJs pathway and the miR-122a/Zonulin/EGFR pathway. RESULTS The rat weight, liver index, liver and colon phenotype, and serum biochemical indexes showed that QDT could significantly reduce liver and intestine injury and inhibit the progress of ACLF and endotoxemia. Toluidine blue staining and cytokine indexes showed that QDT could inhibit the activity of MCs and reduce the release of inflammatory factors. Mechanistically, QDT can inhibit the activity of MCs, activate miR-34c/MAZ/TJs pathway and miR-122a/Zonulin/EGFR pathway in colon, promote the recovery of intestinal barrier homeostasis, reduce and restore the damage of endotoxemia. CONCLUSION Our results suggested that QDT can significantly reduce rat ACLF endotoxemia by regulating the miR-34c/MAZ/TJs pathway and the miR-122a/Zonulin/EGFR pathway in colon.

Abstract
EGFR phosphorylation is required for TLR4-mediated macrophage activation during sepsis. However, whether and how intracellular EGFR is transported during endotoxemia have largely been unknown. Here, we show that LPS promotes high levels cell surface expression of EGFR in macrophages through two different transport mechanisms. On one hand, Rab10 is required for EEA1-mediated the membrane translocation of EGFR from the Golgi. On the other hand, EGFR phosphorylation prevents its endocytosis in a kinase activity-dependent manner. Erlotinib, an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, significantly reduced membrane EGFR expression in LPS-activated macrophage. Mechanistically, upon LPS induced TLR4/EGFR phosphorylation, MAPK14 phosphorylated Rab7a at S72 impaired membrane receptor late endocytosis, which maintains EGFR membrane localization though blocking its lysosomal degradation. Meanwhile, Rab5a is also involved in the early endocytosis of EGFR. Subsequently, inhibition of EGFR phosphorylation switches M1 phenotype to M2 phenotype and alleviates sepsis-induced acute lung injury. Mechanistic study demonstrated that Erlotinib suppressed glycolysis-dependent M1 polarization via PKM2/HIF-1ɑ pathway and promoted M2 polarization through up-regulating PPARγ induced glutamine metabolism. Collectively, our data elucidated a more in-depth mechanism of macrophages activation, and provided stronger evidence supporting EGFR as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of sepsis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily, plays a critical role in mediating cell-cell interaction and outside-in cell signaling during the immune response. ICAM-1 is expressed on the cell surface of several cell types including endothelial cells, epithelial cells, leucocytes, fibroblasts, and neutrophils. Despite ICAM-1 has been detected on macrophage, little is known about the function and mechanism of macrophage ICAM-1. METHODS To investigate the role of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in ICAM-1 regulation, both the protein and cell surface expression of ICAM-1 were measured. The phagocytosis of macrophage was evaluated by flow cytometry and Confocal microscopy. Small interfering RNA and neutralizing antibody of ICAM-1 were used to assess the effect of ICAM-1 on macrophage phagocytosis. TLR4 gene knockout mouse and cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ROS scavenger were used for the regulation of ICAM-1 expression. ROS was determined using flow cytometry. RESULTS In this study, we reported that macrophage can be stimulated to increase both the protein and cell surface expression of ICAM-1 by LPS. Macrophage ICAM-1 expression was correlated with enhanced macrophage phagocytosis. We found that using ICAM-1 neutralizing antibody or ICAM-1 silencing to attenuate the function or expression of ICAM-1 could decrease LPS-induced macrophage phagocytosis. Furthermore, we found that knocking out of TLR4 led to inhibited cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ROS production, which in turn, attenuated ICAM-1 expression at both the protein and cell surface levels. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that the mechanism of ICAM-1-mediated macrophage phagocytosis is depending on TLR4-mediated ROS production and provides significant light on macrophage ICAM-1 in endotoxemia.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common and serious complications in the development of sepsis. Many microRNAs are closely related to the occurrence, development, and prognosis of sepsis AKI (but the effect and mechanism of miR-152-3p in it is unclear). Meanwhile, the ERBB receptor feedback inhibitor 1 (ERRFI1) has a negative regulatory effect on signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) phosphorylation on uterine epithelial cells. But, the relationship between miR-152-3p and renal function, inflammatory factors, prognosis in AKI, and the mechanism is not clear. Analyzing sepsis-induced AKI rats and the cell model, our results revealed that miR-152-3p was upregulated in septic AKI patients and positively correlated with serum creatinine, urea nitrogen, interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). Downregulation of miR-152-3p with the inhibitor could dramatically attenuate caspase-3, bromodeoxyuridine and IL-1β, and TNF-α in the AKI rats' model. Furthermore, downregulation of miR-152-3p attenuated lipopolysaccharide-induced apoptosis and inflammatory response in HK-2 and HEK293 cells. To further explore the mechanisms, we found ERRFI1 was appreciably downregulated and STAT3 was upregulated in AKI, whereas ERRFI1 was radically upregulated and STAT3 was greatly downregulated after the addition of miR-152-3p inhibitor, no matter in vivo or in vitro. Summarily, our study confirmed that miR-152-3p could promote the expression of STAT3 by targeting ERRFI1, aggravate cell apoptosis and inflammatory response, and thereby aggravate kidney injury in sepsis AKI.

Interplay between RAGE and TLR4 Regulates HMGB1-Induced Inflammation by Promoting Cell Surface Expression of RAGE and TLR4. THE JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY 2020; 205:767-775.

Abstract
Receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) and TLR4 play an important role in the inflammatory response against High-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), a late proinflammatory cytokine and a damage-associated molecular pattern. As cell surface receptors, both RAGE and TLR4 are constantly trafficking between the cytoplasm and plasma membrane. However, whether TLR4 is related to the intracellular transport of RAGE in HMGB1-induced inflammation remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that HMGB1 not only increased RAGE expression in both the cytoplasm and plasma membrane but also upregulated the expression of TLR4 in the plasma membrane. Knocking out of RAGE led to decreased MAPK activation, TLR4 cellular membrane expression, and corresponding inflammatory cytokine generation. Meanwhile, inhibiting MAPK activation also decreased TLR4 surface expression. These results indicated that HMGB1 may bind to cell surface RAGE receptors on the cell surface, leading to MAPK activation, thus promoting TLR4 translocation on the cell surface, but does not regulate its transcription and translation. In contrast, TLR4 can increase the transcription and translation of RAGE, which translocates to the cell surface and is able to bind to more HMGB1. The cell surface receptors TLR4 and RAGE bind to HMGB1, leading to the transcription and secretion of inflammatory cytokines. Finally, we also observed these results in the mice pseudofracture model, which is closely related to HMGB1-induced inflammatory response. All these results demonstrated that the interplay between RAGE and TLR4 are critical for HMGB1-induced inflammatory response.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN In vivo and in vitro studies of the role of miR-2355-5p and its possible targets in intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). OBJECTIVE To elucidate the regulatory role of miR-2355-5p in IVDD and the underlying mechanisms. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA IVDD, which is caused by multiple factors, is the main cause of lower back pain with or without extremity pain. However, the underlying cellular mechanisms of IVDD pathogenesis are not well elucidated. Cell hyper-proliferation, inflammation, and epidermal growth factor receptor activation have been implicated in IVDD. Up-regulated miR-2355-5p level was identified to associate with IVDD. ERRFI1 (the product of mitogen-inducible gene 6 [MIG6]) was known to inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor activation. METHODS We monitored the expression of miR-2355-5p and ERRFI1 in IVDD tissues and lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-treated nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. We explored the effects of ERFFI1 on NP cells proliferation and LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines production. We searched the targets of miR-2355-5p and explored the effects of miR-2355-5p on NP cells proliferation and cytokines production. RESULTS We identified the up-regulation of miR-2355-5p and down-regulation of ERFFI1 in IVDD samples and LPS-treated NP cells. ERFFI1 inhibited NP cells proliferation and LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokine production. MiR-2355-5p targeted ERFFI1 and negatively regulated ERFFI1 expression. MiR-2355-5p regulated IVDD by targeting ERFFI1. CONCLUSION MiR-2355-5p negatively regulated ERFFI1 and prevented the effects of ERRFI1 on inhibiting NP cells proliferation and inflammation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE N/A.
