[PMID: 39355507 PMCID: PMC11442990 DOI: 10.1002/mco2.752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2024] [Revised: 09/02/2024] [Accepted: 09/03/2024] [Indexed: 10/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Metabolism-related diseases, including diabetes mellitus, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, are becoming increasingly prevalent, thereby posing significant threats to human health and longevity. Proteins, as the primary mediators of biological activities, undergo various posttranslational modifications (PTMs), including phosphorylation, ubiquitination, acetylation, methylation, and SUMOylation, among others, which substantially diversify their functions. These modifications are crucial in the physiological and pathological processes associated with metabolic disorders. Despite advancements in the field, there remains a deficiency in contemporary summaries addressing how these modifications influence processes of metabolic disease. This review aims to systematically elucidate the mechanisms through which PTM of proteins impact the progression of metabolic diseases, including diabetes, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Additionally, the limitations of the current body of research are critically assessed. Leveraging PTMs of proteins provides novel insights and therapeutic targets for the prevention and treatment of metabolic disorders. Numerous drugs designed to target these modifications are currently in preclinical or clinical trials. This review also provides a comprehensive summary. By elucidating the intricate interplay between PTMs and metabolic pathways, this study advances understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic dysfunction, thereby facilitating the development of more precise and effective disease management strategies.

Abstract
Mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) is very important process for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis, functionality and survival. Its dysregulation is associated with high risk and progression numerous serious diseases (e.g., oncological, neurodegenerative and cardiovascular ones). Therefore, targeting mitophagy mechanisms is very hot topic in the biological and medicinal research. The interrelationships between the regulation of mitophagy and iron homeostasis are now becoming apparent. In short, mitochondria are central point for the regulation of iron homeostasis, but change in intracellular cheatable iron level can induce/repress mitophagy. In this review, relationships between iron homeostasis and mitophagy are thoroughly discussed and described. Also, therapeutic applicability of mitophagy chelators in the context of individual diseases is comprehensively and critically evaluated.

Abstract
Despite extensive progress in the knowledge and understanding of cardiovascular diseases and significant advances in pharmacological treatments and procedural interventions, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the leading cause of death globally. Mitochondrial dynamics refers to the repetitive cycle of fission and fusion of the mitochondrial network. Fission and fusion balance regulate mitochondrial shape and influence physiology, quality and homeostasis. Mitophagy is a process that eliminates aberrant mitochondria. Melatonin (Mel) is a pineal-synthesized hormone with a range of pharmacological properties. Numerous nonclinical trials have demonstrated that Mel provides cardioprotection against ischemia/reperfusion, cardiomyopathies, atherosclerosis and cardiotoxicity. Recently, interest has grown in how mitochondrial dynamics contribute to melatonin cardioprotective effects. This review assesses the literature on the protective effects of Mel against CVD via the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy in both in-vivo and in-vitro studies. The signalling pathways underlying its cardioprotective effects were reviewed. Mel modulated mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy proteins by upregulation of mitofusin, inhibition of DRP1 and regulation of mitophagy-related proteins. The evidence supports a significant role of Mel in mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy quality control in CVD.

Abstract
Central nervous system injuries have a high rate of resulting in disability and mortality; however, at present, effective treatments are lacking. Programmed cell death, which is a genetically determined form of active and ordered cell death with many types, has recently attracted increasing attention due to its functions in determining the fate of cell survival. A growing number of studies have suggested that programmed cell death is involved in central nervous system injuries and plays an important role in the progression of brain damage. In this review, we provide an overview of the role of programmed cell death in central nervous system injuries, including the pathways involved in mitophagy, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and necroptosis, and the underlying mechanisms by which mitophagy regulates pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and necroptosis. We also discuss the new direction of therapeutic strategies targeting mitophagy for the treatment of central nervous system injuries, with the aim to determine the connection between programmed cell death and central nervous system injuries and to identify new therapies to modulate programmed cell death following central nervous system injury. In conclusion, based on these properties and effects, interventions targeting programmed cell death could be developed as potential therapeutic agents for central nervous system injury patients.

Abstract
The existing literature points towards the presence of robust mitochondrial mechanisms aimed at mitigating protein dyshomeostasis within the organelle. However, the precise molecular composition of these mechanisms remains unclear. Our data show that inorganic polyphosphate (polyP), a polymer well-conserved throughout evolution, is a component of these mechanisms. In mammals, mitochondria exhibit a significant abundance of polyP, and both our research and that of others have already highlighted its potent regulatory effect on bioenergetics. Given the intimate connection between energy metabolism and protein homeostasis, the involvement of polyP in proteostasis has also been demonstrated in several organisms. For example, polyP is a bacterial primordial chaperone, and its role in amyloidogenesis has already been established. Here, using mammalian models, our study reveals that the depletion of mitochondrial polyP leads to increased protein aggregation within the organelle, following stress exposure. Furthermore, mitochondrial polyP is able to bind to proteins, and these proteins differ under control and stress conditions. The depletion of mitochondrial polyP significantly affects the proteome under both control and stress conditions, while also exerting regulatory control over gene expression. Our findings suggest that mitochondrial polyP is a previously unrecognized, and potent component of mitochondrial proteostasis.

Abstract
Several mitochondrial dysfunctions in obesity and diabetes include impaired mitochondrial membrane potential, excessive mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation, reduced mitochondrial DNA, increased mitochondrial Ca2+ flux, and mitochondrial dynamics disorders. Mitophagy, specialized autophagy, is responsible for clearing dysfunctional mitochondria in physiological and pathological conditions. As a paradox, inhibition and activation of mitophagy have been observed in obesity and diabetes-related heart disorders, with both exerting bidirectional effects. Suppressed mitophagy is beneficial to mitochondrial homeostasis, also known as benign mitophagy. On the contrary, in most cases, excessive mitophagy is harmful to dysfunctional mitochondria elimination and thus is defined as detrimental mitophagy. In obesity and diabetes, two classical pathways appear to regulate mitophagy, including PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin-dependent mitophagy and receptors/adapters-dependent mitophagy. After the pharmacologic interventions of mitophagy, mitochondrial morphology and function have been restored, and cell viability has been further improved. Herein, we summarize the mitochondrial dysfunction and mitophagy alterations in obesity and diabetes, as well as the underlying upstream mechanisms, in order to provide novel therapeutic strategies for the obesity and diabetes-related heart disorders.

SIRT3-Mediated Deacetylation of SDHA Rescues Mitochondrial Bioenergetics Contributing to Neuroprotection in Rotenone-Induced PD Models. Mol Neurobiol 2024; 61:4402-4420.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is critically involved in the degeneration of dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra, a common pathological feature of Parkinson's disease (PD). Previous studies have demonstrated that the NAD+-dependent acetylase Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) participates in maintaining mitochondrial function and is downregulated in aging-related neurodegenerative disorders. The exact mechanism of action of SIRT3 on mitochondrial bioenergetics in PD pathogenesis, however, has not been fully described. In this study, we investigated the regulatory role of SIRT3-mediated deacetylation of mitochondrial complex II (succinate dehydrogenase) subunit A (SDHA) and its effect on neuronal cell survival in rotenone (ROT)-induced rat and differentiated MN9D cell models. The results revealed that SIRT3 activity was suppressed in both in vivo and in vitro PD models. Accompanying this downregulation of SIRT3 was the hyperacetylation of SDHA, impaired activity of mitochondrial complex II, and decreased ATP production. It was found that the inhibition of SIRT3 activity was attributed to a reduction in the NAD+/NADH ratio caused by ROT-induced inhibition of mitochondrial complex I. Activation of SIRT3 by icariin and honokiol inhibited SDHA hyperacetylation and increased complex II activity, leading to increased ATP production and protection against ROT-induced neuronal damage. Furthermore, overexpression of SDHA also exerted potent protective benefits in cells treated with ROT. In addition, treatment of MN9D cells with the NAD+ precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide increased SIRT3 activity and complex II activity and promoted the survival of cells exposed to ROT. These findings unravel a regulatory SIRT3-SDHA axis, which may be closely related to PD pathology. Bioenergetic rescue through SIRT3 activation-dependent improvement of mitochondrial complex II activity may provide an effective strategy for protection from neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Mitochondria, the most crucial energy-generating organelles in eukaryotic cells, play a pivotal role in regulating energy metabolism. However, their significance extends beyond this, as they are also indispensable in vital life processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, immune responses, and redox balance. In response to various physiological signals or external stimuli, a sophisticated mitochondrial quality control (MQC) mechanism has evolved, encompassing key processes like mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dynamics, and mitophagy, which have garnered increasing attention from researchers to unveil their specific molecular mechanisms. In this review, we present a comprehensive summary of the primary mechanisms and functions of key regulators involved in major components of MQC. Furthermore, the critical physiological functions regulated by MQC and its diverse roles in the progression of various systemic diseases have been described in detail. We also discuss agonists or antagonists targeting MQC, aiming to explore potential therapeutic and research prospects by enhancing MQC to stabilize mitochondrial function.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is a common complication of diabetes. Previous studies have implicated that mitochondrial dysfunction plays a role in the development of PDN, but its pathogenesis and mechanism have not been fully investigated. METHODS In this study, we used high-fat diet/low-dose streptozotocin-induced rats as a model of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Behavioral testing, whole-cell patch-clamp recordings of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, and complex sensory nerve conduction velocity studies were used to assess peripheral neuropathy. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), ATP, tissue reactive oxygen species, and transmission electron microscopy were used to evaluate the function and morphology of mitochondria in DRG. Real-time PCR, western blot, and immunofluorescence were performed to investigate the mechanism. RESULTS We found that damaged mitochondria were accumulated and mitophagy was inhibited in PDN rats. The expression of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), which is an NAD+-dependent deacetylase in mitochondria, was inhibited. Overexpression of SIRT3 in DRG neurons by intrathecally administered LV-SIRT3 lentivirus ameliorated neurological and mitochondrial dysfunctions. This was evidenced by the reversal of allodynia and nociceptor hyperexcitability, as well as the restoration of MMP and ATP levels. Overexpression of SIRT3 restored the inhibited mitophagy by activating the FoxO3a-PINK1-Parkin signaling pathway. The effects of SIRT3 overexpression, including the reversal of allodynia and nociceptor hyperexcitability, the improvement of impaired mitochondria and mitophagy, and the restoration of PINK1 and Parkin expression, were counteracted when FoxO3a siRNA was intrathecally injected. CONCLUSION These results showed that SIRT3 overexpression ameliorates PDN via activation of FoxO3a-PINK1-Parkin-mediated mitophagy, suggesting that SIRT3 may become an encouraging therapeutic strategy for PDN.

HIV-1 Tat Induces Dysregulation of PGC1-Alpha and Sirtuin 3 Expression in Neurons: The Role of Mitochondrial Biogenesis in HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorder (HAND). Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:17566. [PMID: 38139395 PMCID: PMC10743616 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242417566] [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: 10/28/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
During the antiretroviral era, individuals living with HIV continue to experience milder forms of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND). Viral proteins, including Tat, play a pivotal role in the observed alterations within the central nervous system (CNS), with mitochondrial dysfunction emerging as a prominent hallmark. As a result, our objective was to examine the expression of genes associated with mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis in the brain exposed to the HIV-1 Tat protein. We achieved this by performing bilateral stereotaxic injections of 100 ng of HIV-1 Tat into the hippocampus of Sprague-Dawley rats, followed by immunoneuromagnetic cell isolation. Subsequently, we assessed the gene expression of Ppargc1a, Pink1, and Sirt1-3 in neurons using RT-qPCR. Additionally, to understand the role of Tert in telomeric dysfunction, we quantified the activity and expression of Tert. Our results revealed that only Ppargc1a, Pink1, and mitochondrial Sirt3 were downregulated in response to the presence of HIV-1 Tat in hippocampal neurons. Interestingly, we observed a reduction in the activity of Tert in the experimental group, while mRNA levels remained relatively stable. These findings support the compelling evidence of dysregulation in both mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis in neurons exposed to HIV-1 Tat, which in turn induces telomeric dysfunction.

Active fraction of Polyrhachis vicina (Roger) alleviated cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury by targeting SIRT3-mediated mitophagy and angiogenesis. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 121:155104. [PMID: 37797433 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2023.155104] [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: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 08/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Damaged mitophagy and impaired angiogenesis involve in the pathogenic development of ischemic stroke. Active fraction of Polyrhachis vicina (Roger) (AFPR) showed great potential on neurological disease with it's remarkable anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects. PURPOSE This study designed to clarify the correlation between Pink1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy and angiogenesis after stroke, and to elucidate the role of SIRT3 in regulating mitophagy and angiogenesis, and to address the mechanism of AFPR on promoting mitophagy and angiogenesis in microvessels endothelium of ischemic brain. STUDY DESIGN A cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (CIR) rat model was developed by middle cerebral artery occlusion procedure. bEnd.3 cells were exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) to mimic CIR process. Neurological function, mitophagy and angiogenesis related indicators were measured. SIRT3 siRNA and 3-MA were used to verify the interaction between SIRT3-mediated mitophagy and angiogenesis. METHODS CIR rats were orally treated with AFPR (8 and 4 g raw drug /kg) and Nimodipine (10.8 mg/kg) for 12 days to mimic the recovery phase post-stroke. The neurological function assessment, TTC staining, HE staining, TUNEL staining and Nissl staining were performed to assess neuroprotective effects of AFPR against CIR. Then CD31-labeled microvessel density in brain was visualized and quantified by immunofluorescence staining. Mitochondrial ultrastructure was assessed by transmission electron microscope scanning. Expressions of relative proteins,e.g. SIRT3, Pink1, Parkin, LC3-II, p62, VEGFA, involving in mitophagy and angiogenesis, were detected by Western blotting analysis. In vitro, bEnd.3 cells were cultured with AFPR or in combination of autophagy inhibitor 3-MA during the reoxygenation. Then cell viability, and LDH releasing were measured. Angiogenic indicators,such as migration and tube formation activity, VEGFA level were determined. To assess effects of AFPR on mitophagy, mitophagy-related proteins were detected, as well as the autophagosome engulfment and lysosome degradation of mitochondria. To address the role of SIRT3, deacetylation activity of SIRT3 was validated by detecting acetylated FOXO3A level with co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay. Pre-treatment of siRNA or combination use of 3-MA were used to verify the detailed mechanism. RESULTS AFPR remarkably reduced neurological scores and infarct size, alleviated neuron apoptosis in cortex, and increased Nissl density in hippocampus of CIR rats. In addition, AFPR significantly promoted angiogenesis by increasing microvessels density and VEGFA expressions, increased SIRT3 expression, and activated Pink1/Parkin mediated mitophagy. In bEnd.3 cells, the combination use of 3-MA and AFPR further demonstrated that AFPR might promote angiogenesis after OGD/R injury through activating Pink1/Parkin mediated mitophagy. Co-IP assay suggested AFPR reduced acetylated FOXO3A level. This might be correlated with an elevation of SIRT3 expression and it's deacetylation activity. SIRT3 siRNA pretreatment significantly abolished the activation of mitophagy through Pink1/Parkin axis, eventually inhibited angiogenesis. CONCLUSION AFPR promoted angiogenesis through activating mitophagy after cerebral ischemia reperfusion, which might partially involved in the amelioration of SIRT3-mediated regulation on Pink1/Parkin axis. Our study will shed new light on the role of SIRT3 in ischemic brain, especially in regulating mitophagy and angiogenesis after stroke.

Abstract
Many vascular diseases are linked to lipid metabolism disorders, which cause lipid accumulation and peroxidation in the vascular wall. These processes lead to degenerative changes in the vessel, such as phenotypic transformation of smooth muscle cells and dysfunction and apoptosis of endothelial cells. In intracranial aneurysms, the coexistence of lipid plaques is often observed, indicating localized lipid metabolism disorders. These disorders may impair the function of the vascular wall or result from it. We summarize the literature on the relationship between lipid metabolism disorders and intracranial aneurysms below.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mitochondria are strained by microbial stimuli in the periodontal niche. Damaged mitochondria are cleared by mitophagy. The purpose of the study was to explore whether mitophagy participated in the progress of periodontitis and whether activation of mitophagy can inhibit inflammatory responses to bacterial infection in macrophages. METHODS Mitophagy-related genes were measured in the healthy and inflamed human gingiva. Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were infected with Porphyromonas gingivalis. Dexmedetomidine, urolithin A, and resveratrol were used to activate mitophagy, while small interference RNA was utilized to knock down PTEN-induced putative protein kinase 1 (PINK1). Activation of mitophagy-related genes and colocalization of them were detected by Western blot and confocal imaging. Damages of mitochondria, accumulation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS), and production of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were measured. RESULTS Levels of mitophagy-related genes were decreased in inflamed periodontal tissues and P. gingivalis-infected BMDMs. Dexmedetomidine, urolithin A, and resveratrol activated mitophagy, leading to reduced mitochondria damages, decreased mtROS generation, and inhibited IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α production. PINK1 knockdown reduced dexmedetomidine, urolithin A, and resveratrol-induced anti-inflammatory effect. CONCLUSION Inhibited mitophagy participated in the progress of periodontitis. Activation of mitophagy may become a therapeutic target during the progress of periodontitis by reducing mtROS.

Abstract
Significance: Inflammasomes are multimeric complexes that, as part of the innate immune response, sense a wide range of pathogenic and sterile stimuli. They consist of three components, namely a sensor protein, an adaptor, and procaspase-1, which once activated result in secretion of proinflammatory interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 and, eventually, in a gasdermin D-dependent lytic cell death called pyroptosis. Recent Advances: Since their discovery 20 years ago, the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of inflammasomes have been extensively studied. Oxidative stress appears as a major contributor to modulate inflammasomes, especially NLRP3 as well as NLRP1, NLRP6, and NLRC4. Growing evidence supports the idea that the positive feedback between redox imbalance and inflammasome-driven inflammation fuels an OxInflammatory state in a variety of human pathologies. Critical Issues: The current knowledge about the redox signaling pathways involved in inflammasomes activation and functions are here highlighted. In addition, we discuss the role of this complex molecular network interaction in the onset and progression of pathological conditions including neurological and metabolic diseases as well as skin disorders, also with an insight on COVID-19-related pathology. Finally, the therapeutic strategies able to mitigate the redox-mediated inflammasome activation with synthetic and natural compounds as well as by acting on inflammasome-related post-translational modifications and microRNAs are also addressed. Future Directions: Further investigations leading to a deeper understanding of the reciprocal interaction between inflammasomes and reactive oxygen species will help identify other molecular targets for modulating their hyperactivated state, and to design novel therapeutics for chronic OxInflammatory conditions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lead (Pb) exposure and high-fat diet (HFD) trigger neurotoxicity, which may involve neuroinflammation. However, the mechanism by which combined Pb and HFD exposure induces nucleotide oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has not been fully elucidated. MATERIAL AND METHODS The Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat model of exposure to Pb and HFD was established to reveal the influence of co-exposure on cognition and identify signaling clues that mediate neuroinflammation and synaptic dysregulation. PC12 cells was treated with Pb and PA in vitro. Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) agonist (SRT 1720) was employed as intervention agent. RESULTS Our results showed that Pb and HFD exposure induced cognitive impairment and lead to neurological damage in rats. Meanwhile, Pb and HFD could stimulate the NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and activate caspase 1, releasing proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18), further promoting neuronal cell activation and amplifying neuroinflammatory responses. Additionally, our findings suggest that SIRT1 plays a role in Pb and HFD induced neuroinflammation. However, the use of SRT 1720 agonists showed some potential in alleviating these impairments. CONCLUSION Pb exposure and HFD intake could induce neuronal damage through activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and synaptic dysregulation, while the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway may be rescued via activating SIRT1.

Abstract
According to the endosymbiotic theory, most of the DNA of the original bacterial endosymbiont has been lost or transferred to the nucleus, leaving a much smaller (∼16 kb in mammals), circular molecule that is the present-day mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The ability of mtDNA to escape mitochondria and integrate into the nuclear genome was discovered in budding yeast, along with genes that regulate this process. Mitochondria have emerged as key regulators of innate immunity, and it is now recognized that mtDNA released into the cytoplasm, outside of the cell, or into circulation activates multiple innate immune signaling pathways. Here, we first review the mechanisms through which mtDNA is released into the cytoplasm, including several inducible mitochondrial pores and defective mitophagy or autophagy. Next, we cover how the different forms of released mtDNA activate specific innate immune nucleic acid sensors and inflammasomes. Finally, we discuss how intracellular and extracellular mtDNA release, including circulating cell-free mtDNA that promotes systemic inflammation, are implicated in human diseases, bacterial and viral infections, senescence and aging.

Abstract
Mitophagy is a type of autophagy that can selectively eliminate damaged and depolarized mitochondria to maintain mitochondrial activity and cellular homeostasis. Several pathways have been found to participate in different steps of mitophagy. Mitophagy plays a significant role in the homeostasis and physiological function of vascular endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, and macrophages, and is involved in the development of atherosclerosis (AS). At present, many medications and natural chemicals have been shown to alter mitophagy and slow the progression of AS. This review serves as an introduction to the field of mitophagy for researchers interested in targeting this pathway as part of a potential AS management strategy.

Abstract
The patients with kidney diseases are increasing rapidly all over the world. With the rich abundance of mitochondria, kidney is an organ with a high consumption of energy. Hence, renal failure is highly correlated with the breakup of mitochondrial homeostasis. However, the potential drugs targeting mitochondrial dysfunction are still in mystery. The natural products have the superiorities to explore the potential drugs regulating energy metabolism. However, their roles in targeting mitochondrial dysfunction in kidney diseases have not been extensively reviewed. Herein, we reviewed a series of natural products targeting mitochondrial oxidative stress, mitochondrial biogenesis, mitophagy, and mitochondrial dynamics. We found lots of them with great medicinal values in kidney disease. Our review provides a wide prospect for seeking the effective drugs targeting kidney diseases.

PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) regulates Parkinson's disease, but its role in cancers is unknown. OBJECTIVE This study was designed to analyze the mechanism by which PINK1 affects osteosarcoma using bioinformatics and cell experiments. MATERIALS AND METHODS The gene expression profiles were downloaded from the TARGET database. Several online databases were used to analyze the expression and protein‒protein interaction networks. CCK-8 cell viability assays and cisplatin treatment were used to assess cell activity with or without cisplatin treatment. Acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) fluorescence staining was used to calculate the percentage of apoptotic cells. RESULTS Through bioinformatics analysis, we found that high expression of PINK1 was associated with poor prognosis in patients with osteosarcoma, and PINK1 inhibited apoptosis and promoted proliferation pathways. Next, we found that both PINK1 mRNA and protein levels were upregulated in osteosarcoma tissues. Additionally, we found that PTEN was reduced, while FOXO3a was markedly increased in osteosarcoma, suggesting that FOXO3a and not PTEN induced the overexpression of PINK1. CCK-8 and clonogenic assays showed that the knockdown of PINK1 decreased the growth of U2OS osteosarcoma cells. Ki67 immunofluorescence staining revealed that reduced cell proliferation in U2OS cells resulted in the depletion of PINK1. In addition, our AO/EB staining results indicated that the knockdown of PINK1 resulted in an increase in apoptotic cells and increased the levels of cleaved caspase-3. Furthermore, our experiments revealed that cisplatin promotes OS cell apoptosis by downregulating PINK1. CONCLUSION Collectively, our findings demonstrate that PINK1 is crucially involved in osteosarcoma and suggests that it can promote the apoptosis of OS cells as the downstream target gene of cisplatin.

Abstract
Diabetes has been shown to accelerate vascular senescence, which is associated with chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, both implicated in the development of endothelial dysfunction. This condition represents the initial alteration linking diabetes to related cardiovascular (CV) complications. Recently, it has been hypothesised that the acetyltransferase, p300, may contribute to establishing an early vascular senescent phenotype, playing a relevant role in diabetes-associated inflammation and oxidative stress, which drive endothelial dysfunction. Specifically, p300 can modulate vascular inflammation through epigenetic mechanisms and transcription factors acetylation. Indeed, it regulates the inflammatory pathway by interacting with nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells p65 subunit (NF-κB p65) or by inducing its acetylation, suggesting a crucial role of p300 as a bridge between NF-κB p65 and the transcriptional machinery. Additionally, p300-mediated epigenetic modifications could be upstream of the activation of inflammatory cytokines, and they may induce oxidative stress by affecting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Because several in vitro and in vivo studies shed light on the potential use of acetyltransferase inhibitors, a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the role of p300 in diabetic vascular dysfunction could help in finding new strategies for the clinical management of CV diseases related to diabetes.

Nutraceuticals/Drugs Promoting Mitophagy and Mitochondrial Biogenesis May Combat the Mitochondrial Dysfunction Driving Progression of Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14091985. [PMID: 35565950 PMCID: PMC9104458 DOI: 10.3390/nu14091985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2022] [Revised: 04/29/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
In patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the crucial retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells are characterized by mitochondria that are structurally and functionally defective. Moreover, deficient expression of the mRNA-editing enzyme Dicer is noted specifically in these cells. This Dicer deficit up-regulates expression of Alu RNA, which in turn damages mitochondria—inducing the loss of membrane potential, boosting oxidant generation, and causing mitochondrial DNA to translocate to the cytoplasmic region. The cytoplasmic mtDNA, in conjunction with induced oxidative stress, triggers a non-canonical pathway of NLRP3 inflammasome activation, leading to the production of interleukin-18 that acts in an autocrine manner to induce apoptotic death of RPE cells, thereby driving progression of dry AMD. It is proposed that measures which jointly up-regulate mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis (MB), by replacing damaged mitochondria with “healthy” new ones, may lessen the adverse impact of Alu RNA on RPE cells, enabling the prevention or control of dry AMD. An analysis of the molecular biology underlying mitophagy/MB and inflammasome activation suggests that nutraceuticals or drugs that can activate Sirt1, AMPK, Nrf2, and PPARα may be useful in this regard. These include ferulic acid, melatonin urolithin A and glucosamine (Sirt1), metformin and berberine (AMPK), lipoic acid and broccoli sprout extract (Nrf2), and fibrate drugs and astaxanthin (PPARα). Hence, nutraceutical regimens providing physiologically meaningful doses of several or all of the: ferulic acid, melatonin, glucosamine, berberine, lipoic acid, and astaxanthin, may have potential for control of dry AMD.

Abstract
For reasons that remain unclear, endogenous synthesis and tissue levels of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) tend to decline with increasing age in at least some tissues. When CoQ10 levels are sufficiently low, this compromises the efficiency of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, such that production of superoxide by site 2 increases and the rate of adenosine triphosphate production declines. Moreover, CoQ10 deficiency can be expected to decrease activities of Sirt1 and Sirt3 deacetylases, believed to be key determinants of health span. Reduction of the cytoplasmic and mitochondrial NAD+/NADH ratio consequent to CoQ10 deficit can be expected to decrease the activity of these deacetylases by lessening availability of their obligate substrate NAD+ The increased oxidant production induced by CoQ10 deficiency can decrease the stability of Sirt1 protein by complementary mechanisms. And CoQ10 deficiency has also been found to lower mRNA expression of Sirt1. An analysis of the roles of Sirt1/Sirt3 in modulation of cellular function helps to rationalise clinical benefits of CoQ10 supplementation reported in heart failure, hypertension, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, metabolic syndrome and periodontal disease. Hence, correction of CoQ10 deficiency joins a growing list of measures that have potential for amplifying health protective Sirt1/Sirt3 activities.

Abstract
HIV-Associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) is one of the major concerns since it persists in 40% of this population. Nowadays, HAND neuropathogenesis is considered to be caused by the infected cells that cross the brain-blood barrier and produce viral proteins that can be secreted and internalized into neurons leading to disruption of cellular processes. The evidence points to viral proteins such as Tat as the causal agent for neuronal alteration and thus HAND. The hallmarks in Tat-induced neurodegeneration are endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Sirtuins (SIRTs) are NAD+-dependent deacetylases involved in mitochondria biogenesis, unfolded protein response, and intrinsic apoptosis pathway. Tat interaction with these deacetylases causes inhibition of SIRT1 and SIRT3. Studies revealed that SIRTs activation promotes neuroprotection in neurodegenerative diseases such Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Therefore, this review focuses on Tat-induced neurotoxicity mechanisms that involve SIRTs as key regulators and their modulation as a therapeutic strategy for tackling HAND and thereby improving the quality of life of people living with HIV.
