He C, Wang T, Han Y, Zuo C, Wang G. Jun-activated SOCS1 enhances ubiquitination and degradation of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β to ameliorate cerebral ischaemia/reperfusion injury. J Physiol 2024. [PMID: 39197117 DOI: 10.1113/jp285673] [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: 09/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 08/30/2024] Open
Abstract
This study investigates the molecular mechanisms behind ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in the brain, focusing on neuronal apoptosis. It scrutinizes the role of the Jun proto-oncogene in apoptosis, involvement of SOCS1 in neural precursor cell accumulation in ischaemic regions, and the upregulation of C-EBPβ in the hippocampus following I/R. Key to the study is understanding how Jun controls C-EBPβ degradation via SOCS1, potentially offering new clinical treatment avenues for I/R. Techniques such as mRNA sequencing, KEGG enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction (PPI) in mouse models have indicated involvement of Jun (AP-1) in I/R-induced cerebral damage. The study employs middle cerebral artery occlusion in different mouse models and oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation in cortical neurons to examine the impacts of Jun and SOCS1 manipulation on cerebral I/R injury and neuronal damage. The findings reveal that I/R reduces Jun expression in the brain, but its restoration lessens cerebral I/R injury and neuron death. Jun activates SOCS1 transcriptionally, leading to C-EBPβ degradation, thereby diminishing cerebral I/R injury through the SOCS1/C-EBPβ pathway. These insights provide a deeper understanding of post-I/R cerebral injury mechanisms and suggest new therapeutic targets for cerebral I/R injury. KEY POINTS: Jun and SOCS1 are poorly expressed, and C-EBPβ is highly expressed in ischaemia/reperfusion mouse brain tissues. Jun transcriptionally activates SOCS1. SOCS1 promotes the ubiquitination-dependent C-EBPβ protein degradation. Jun blunts oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation-induced neuron apoptosis and alleviates neuronal injury. This study provides a theoretical basis for the management of post-I/R brain injury.

Abstract
The prevalence of metabolic diseases is increasing at a frightening rate year by year. The burgeoning development of deep learning enables drug design to be more efficient, selective, and structurally novel. The critical relevance of Histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) to the pathogenesis of several metabolic diseases makes it a promising drug target for curbing metabolic disorders. The present study aims to design new specific HDAC11 inhibitors for the treatment of metabolic diseases. Deep learning was performed to learn the properties of existing HDAC11 inhibitors and yield a novel compound library containing 23,122 molecules. Subsequently, the compound library was screened by ADMET properties, Lipinski & Veber rules, traditional machine classification models, and molecular docking, and 10 compounds were screened as candidate HDAC11 inhibitors. The stability of the 10 new molecules was further evaluated by deploying RMSD, RMSF, MM/GBSA, free energy landscape mapping, and PCA analysis in molecular dynamics simulations. As a result, ten compounds, Cpd_17556, Cpd_2184, Cpd_8907, Cpd_7771, Cpd_14959, Cpd_7108, Cpd_12383, Cpd_13153, Cpd_14500and Cpd_21811, were characterized as good HDAC11 inhibitors and are expected to be promising drug candidates for metabolic disorders, and further in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials to demonstrate in the future.

Abstract
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are important components of the tumor microenvironment (TME), which drive the tumor immune escape by inducing immunosuppression. The expansion and function of MDSCs are tightly associated with signaling pathways induced by molecules from tumor cells, stromal cells, and activated immune cells in the TME. Although these pathways have been well-characterized, the understanding of the epigenetic regulators involved is incomplete. Since histone modifications are the most studied epigenetic changes in MDSCs, we summarize current knowledge on the role of histone modifications in MDSCs within this review. We first discuss the influence of the TME on histone modifications in MDSCs, with an emphasis on histone modifications and modifiers that direct MDSC differentiation and function. Furthermore, we highlight current epigenetic interventions that can reverse MDSC-induced immunosuppression by modulating histone modifications and discuss future research directions to fully appreciate the role of histone modifications in MDSCs.

Abstract
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are identified as a highly heterogeneous group of immature cells derived from bone marrow and play critical immunosuppressive functions in autoimmune diseases. Accumulating evidence indicates that the pathophysiology of autoimmune diseases was closely related to genetic mutations and epigenetic modifications, with the latter more common. Epigenetic modifications, which involve DNA methylation, covalent histone modification, and non-coding RNA-mediated regulation, refer to inheritable and potentially reversible changes in DNA and chromatin that regulate gene expression without altering the DNA sequence. Recently, numerous reports have shown that epigenetic modifications in MDSCs play important roles in the differentiation and development of MDSCs and their suppressive functions. The molecular mechanisms of differentiation and development of MDSCs and their regulatory roles in the initiation and progression of autoimmune diseases have been extensively studied, but the exact function of MDSCs remains controversial. Therefore, the biological and epigenetic regulation of MDSCs in autoimmune diseases still needs to be further characterized. This review provides a detailed summary of the current research on the regulatory roles of DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs in the development and immunosuppressive activity of MDSCs, and further summarizes the distinct role of MDSCs in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, in order to provide help for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases from the perspective of epigenetic regulation of MDSCs.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) is the only member of the class IV HDAC, and the latest member identified. It is highly expressed in brain, heart, kidney and some other organs, and located in mitochondria, cytoplasm and nuclei, depending on the tissue and cell types. Although studies in HDAC11 total knockout mice suggest its dispensable features for tissue development and life, it participates in diverse pathophysiological processes, such as DNA replication, tumor growth, immune regulation, oxidant stress injury and neurological function of cocaine. Recent studies have shown that HDAC11 is also critically involved in the pathogenesis of some metabolic diseases, including obesity, diabetes and complications of diabetes. In this review, we summarize the recent progress on the role and mechanism of HDAC11 in the regulation of metabolic disorders, with the focus on its regulation on adipogenesis, lipid metabolism, metabolic inflammation, glucose tolerance, immune responses and energy consumption. We also discuss the property and selectivity of HDAC11 inhibitors and their applications in a variety of in vitro and in vivo models of metabolic disorders. Given that pharmacological and genetic inhibition of HDAC11 exerts a beneficial effect on various metabolic disorders, HDAC11 may be a potential therapeutic target to treat chronic metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Acetylation is considered as one of the most common types of epigenetic modifications, and aberrant histone acetylation modifications are associated with the pathological process of cancer through the regulation of oncogenes and tumor suppressors. Recent studies have shown that immune system function and tumor immunity can also be affected by acetylation modifications. A comprehensive understanding of the role of acetylation function in cancer is essential, which may help to develop new therapies to improve the prognosis of cancer patients. In this review, we mainly discussed the functions of acetylase and deacetylase in tumor, immune system and tumor immunity, and listed the information of drugs targeting these enzymes in tumor immunotherapy.
