Sci Rep 2024; 14:8985. [PMID: 38637598 PMCID: PMC11026494 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-59344-5] [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: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024] Open
Abstract
This study delves into the potential connections between cardiac oxidative stress, inflammatory cytokine response, cardiac pump function, and prognosis in individuals following myocardial infarction. A total of 276 patients were categorized into two groups: the control group (n = 130) and the observation group (n = 146), based on the drug intervention strategies. The control group received standard drug treatment, while the observation group received early drug intervention targeting antioxidant and anti-inflammatory treatment in addition to standard treatment. Serum levels of inflammatory factors, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-9 (IL-6), were assessed using enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA) kits. The Forkhead Box Protein A2 (FOX2) reagent was used to determine the overall oxidation level. Left Ventricular End-Diastolic Diameter (LVEDD), Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF), and End-Systolic Diameter (ESD) were measured using Doppler ultrasound. The observation group exhibited significantly reduced serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Moreover, the observation group exerted lower total oxidation levels, OSI, EDD, and ESD compared to the control group (P < 0.05), while the LVEF and TAS levels in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Remarkably, the observation group experienced a significant reduction in the incidences of reinfarction, heart failure, arrhythmia, and abnormal valve function compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Decreased cardiac pump function and a more unfavorable prognosis were associated with elevated levels of cardiac oxidative stress and inflammatory factors (P < 0.05). Timely intervention with appropriate medications have a crucial effect in decreasing inflammatory marker levels, mitigating oxidative pressure, and enhancing cardiac pumping capacity and overall prognosis.

Abstract
Mammalian E3 ubiquitin ligases have emerged in recent years as critical regulators of cellular homeostasis due to their roles in targeting substrate proteins for ubiquitination and triggering subsequent downstream signals. In this review, we describe the multiple roles of WWP2, an E3 ubiquitin ligase with unique and important functions in regulating a wide range of biological processes, including DNA repair, gene expression, signal transduction, and cell-fate decisions. As such, WWP2 has evolved to play a key role in normal physiology and diseases, such as tumorigenesis, skeletal development and diseases, immune regulation, cardiovascular disease, and others. We attempt to provide an overview of the biochemical, physiological, and pathophysiological roles of WWP2, as well as open questions for future research, particularly in the context of putative therapeutic opportunities.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are multifactorial chronic diseases and have the highest rates of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) plays a crucial role in posttranslational modification and quality control of proteins, maintaining intracellular homeostasis via degradation of misfolded, short-lived, or nonfunctional regulatory proteins. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs, such as microRNAs, long noncoding RNAs, circular RNAs and small interfering RNAs) serve as epigenetic factors and directly or indirectly participate in various physiological and pathological processes. NcRNAs that regulate ubiquitination or are regulated by the UPS are involved in the execution of target protein stability. The cross-linked relationship between the UPS, ncRNAs and CVDs has drawn researchers' attention. Herein, we provide an update on recent developments and perspectives on how the crosstalk of the UPS and ncRNAs affects the pathological mechanisms of CVDs, particularly myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, heart failure, atherosclerosis, hypertension, and ischemic stroke. In addition, we further envision that RNA interference or ncRNA mimics or inhibitors targeting the UPS can potentially be used as therapeutic tools and strategies.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has illustrated that the E3 ubiquitin ligases critically participate in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. Dysregulation of E3 ubiquitin ligases exacerbates cardiovascular diseases. Blockade or activation of E3 ubiquitin ligases mitigates cardiovascular performance. Therefore, in this review, we mainly introduced the critical role and underlying molecular mechanisms of E3 ubiquitin ligase NEDD4 family in governing the initiation and progression of cardiovascular diseases, including ITCH, WWP1, WWP2, Smurf1, Smurf2, Nedd4-1 and Nedd4-2. Moreover, the functions and molecular insights of other E3 ubiquitin ligases, such as F-box proteins, in cardiovascular disease development and malignant progression are described. Furthermore, we illustrate several compounds that alter the expression of E3 ubiquitin ligases to alleviate cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, modulation of E3 ubiquitin ligases could be a novel and promising strategy for improvement of therapeutic efficacy of deteriorative cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Background: Post-infarction chronic heart failure is the most common type of heart failure. Patients with chronic heart failure show elevated morbidity and mortality with limited evidence-based therapies. Phosphoproteomic and proteomic analysis can provide insights regarding molecular mechanisms underlying post-infarction chronic heart failure and explore new therapeutic approaches. Methods and results: Global quantitative phosphoproteomic and proteomic analysis of left ventricular tissues from post-infarction chronic heart failure rats were performed. A total of 33 differentially expressed phosphorylated proteins (DPPs) and 129 differentially expressed proteins were identified. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that DPPs were enriched mostly in nucleocytoplasmic transport and mRNA surveillance pathway. Bclaf1 Ser658 was identified after construction of Protein-Protein Interaction Network and intersection with Thanatos Apoptosis Database. Predicted Upstream Kinases of DPPs based on kinase-substrate enrichment analysis (KSEA) app showed 13 kinases enhanced in heart failure. Proteomic analysis showed marked changes in protein expression related to cardiac contractility and metabolism. Conclusion: The present study marked phosphoproteomics and proteomics changes in post-infarction chronic heart failure. Bclaf1 Ser658 might play a critical role in apoptosis in heart failure. PRKAA1, PRKACA, and PAK1 might serve as potential therapeutic targets for post-infarction chronic heart failure.
