Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitophagy, mitochondrial selective autophagy, plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis in response to cellular stress. However, the role of mitophagy in macrophages during infection has not been elucidated. To determine whether mitophagy regulates intracellular pathogen survival, macrophages were infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), an intracellular bacterium. RESULTS We showed that Mtb-infected macrophages induced mitophagy through BCL2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa protein-interacting protein 3 (BNIP3) activation. In contrast, BNIP3-deficient macrophages failed to induce mitophagy, resulting in reduced mitochondrial membrane potential in response to Mtb infection. Moreover, the accumulation of damaged mitochondria due to BNIP3 deficiency generated higher levels of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) compared to the control, suppressing the intracellular survival of Mtb. We observed that siBNIP3 suppressed intracellular Mtb in mice lungs. CONCLUSION We found that BNIP3 plays a critical role in the regulation of mitophagy during Mtb infection. The inhibition of mitophagy suppresses Mtb growth in macrophages through increased mROS production. Therefore, BNIP3 might be a novel therapeutic target for tuberculosis treatment.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), comprising microvesicles (MVs) and exosomes (Exos), are membranous vesicles secreted by cells which mediate the repair of cellular and tissue damage via paracrine mechanisms. The action of EVs under normative and morbid conditions in the context of ageing remains largely unexplored. We demonstrate that MVs, but not Exos, from Pathfinder cells (PCs), a putative stem cell regulatory cell type, enhance the repair of human dermal fibroblast (HDF) and mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) co-cultures, following both mechanical and genotoxic stress. Critically, this effect was found to be both cellular age and stress specific. Notably, MV treatment was unable to repair mechanical injury in older co-cultures but remained therapeutic following genotoxic stress. These observations were further confirmed in human dermal fibroblast (HDF) and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) co-cultures of increasing cellular age. In a model of comorbidity comprising co-cultures of HDFs and highly senescent abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) VSMCs, MV administration appeared to be senotherapeutic, following both mechanical and genotoxic stress. Our data provide insights into EVs and the specific roles they play during tissue repair and ageing. These data will potentiate the development of novel cell-free therapeutic interventions capable of attenuating age-associated morbidities and avoiding undesired effects.

Extracellular Vesicles: New Classification and Tumor Immunosuppression. BIOLOGY 2023; 12:biology12010110.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell-derived membrane-surrounded vesicles carrying various types of molecules. These EV cargoes are often used as pathophysiological biomarkers and delivered to recipient cells whose fates are often altered in local and distant tissues. Classical EVs are exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies, while recent studies discovered autophagic EVs, stressed EVs, and matrix vesicles. Here, we classify classical and new EVs and non-EV nanoparticles. We also review EVs-mediated intercellular communication between cancer cells and various types of tumor-associated cells, such as cancer-associated fibroblasts, adipocytes, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and immune cells. Of note, cancer EVs play crucial roles in immunosuppression, immune evasion, and immunotherapy resistance. Thus, cancer EVs change hot tumors into cold ones. Moreover, cancer EVs affect nonimmune cells to promote cellular transformation, including epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), chemoresistance, tumor matrix production, destruction of biological barriers, angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, and metastatic niche formation.

Abstract
Corneal epithelial wound healing is a multifaceted process that encompasses cell proliferation, migration, and communication from the corneal stroma. Upon corneal injury, bidirectional crosstalk between the epithelium and stroma via extracellular vesicles (EVs) has been reported. However, the mechanisms by which the EVs from human corneal keratocytes (HCKs), fibroblasts (HCFs), and/or myofibroblasts (HCMs) exert their effects on the corneal epithelium remain unclear. In this study, HCK-, HCF-, and HCM-EVs were isolated and characterized, and human corneal epithelial (HCE) cell migration was assessed in a scratch assay following PKH26-labeled HCK-, HCF-, or HCM-EV treatment. HCE cells proliferative and apoptotic activity following EV treatment was assessed. HCF-/HCM-EVs were enriched for CD63, CD81, ITGAV, and THBS1 compared to HCK-EV. All EVs were negative for GM130 and showed minimal differences in biophysical properties. At the proteomic level, we showed HCM-EV with a log >two-fold change in CXCL6, CXCL12, MMP1, and MMP2 expression compared to HCK-/HCF-EVs; these proteins are associated with cellular movement pathways. Upon HCM-EV treatment, HCE cell migration, velocity, and proliferation were significantly increased compared to HCK-/HCF-EVs. This study concludes that the HCM-EV protein cargo influences HCE cell migration and proliferation, and understanding these elements may provide a novel therapeutic avenue for corneal wound healing.

Wound Repair Regen 2021; 29:563-572.

Abstract
The first role that was proposed for the myofibroblasts located in skin granulation tissue was to contract the edges of the wound in order to reduce the surface to be repaired. This role, linked to the presence of alpha smooth muscle actin, was very quickly confirmed and is part of the definition of granulation tissue myofibroblasts. However, myofibroblasts are cells that also play a much more central role in wound healing. Indeed, it has been shown that these cells produce large quantities of matrix components, and that they stimulate angiogenesis and can recruit immune cells. These actions take place via the secretion of molecules into their environment or indirectly via the production of microvesicles containing pro-fibrotic and pro-angiogenic molecules. Pathologically, granulation tissue can develop into a hypertrophic scar that histologically looks like granulation tissue, but which can remain for months or even years. It has been hypothesized that the myofibroblasts in these tissues remained present instead of disappearing by apoptosis, causing the maintenance of granulation tissue rather than allowing its change into a mature scar. Understanding the roles of both pathological and healthy myofibroblasts in wound tissue is crucial in order to better intervene in the healing mechanism.

Abstract
Due to the prevalence of individuals suffering from chronic wounds, developing safe and effective wound care agents are one of the more prominent fields of research in biology. However, wound healing is a complex, multi-stage biological process, involving multiple sequences of biological responses from different types of cells, secreted mediators, and extracellular matrix elements. Plants have a long history of use in the treatment of wounds. Plant-derived extracellular vesicles, which are secreted nano vesicle messengers responsible for intercellular communications, show promise as a new, biotechnological wound-care agent. In this study, we assessed the wound healing potential of extracellular vesicles isolated from grapefruits - a plant with well-known anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties. Grapefruit extracellular vesicles (GEVs) increased cell viability and cell migration while reducing intracellular ROS production in a dose-dependent manner in HaCaT cells. Expression of proliferation and migration-related genes were raised by GEV treatment in a dose dependent manner. Additionally, GEV treatment increased the tube formation capabilities of treated HUVEC cells. These findings suggest that GEVs can be used as plant-derived wound healing agents, and have shown potential as a biotechnological agent for wound healing. Further development and study of plant-derived extracellular vesicles may lead to the realization of their full potential.

Abstract
Hypertrophic scars are a common complication of burn injuries and represent a major challenge in terms of prevention and treatment. These scars are characterized by a supraphysiological vascular density and by the presence of pathological myofibroblasts (Hmyos) displaying a low apoptosis propensity. However, the nature of the association between these two hallmarks of hypertrophic scarring remains largely unexplored. Here, we show that Hmyos produce signalling entities known as microvesicles that significantly increase the three cellular processes underlying blood vessel formation: endothelial cell proliferation, migration and assembly into capillary-like structures. The release of microvesicles from Hmyos was dose-dependently induced by the serum protein α-2-macroglobulin. Using flow cytometry, we revealed the presence of the α-2-macroglobulin receptor-low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1-on the surface of Hmyos. The inhibition of the binding of α-2-macroglobulin to its receptor abolished the shedding of proangiogenic microvesicles from Hmyos. These findings suggest that the production of microvesicles by Hmyos contributes to the excessive vascularization of hypertrophic scars. α-2-Macroglobulin modulates the release of these microvesicles through interaction with low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1.

Abstract
During the last stages of wound healing, myofibroblasts differentiate mainly from fibroblasts. Myofibroblasts from normal skin wounds (Wmyo) can communicate with its surrounding using secreted factors. They also have the capacity to produce microvesicles (MVs), a type of extracellular vesicles, as mediators of intercellular communication. MVs cargo are potentially capable of regulating the behavior of targeted cells and tissues. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Wmyo-derived MVs on dermal fibroblasts and to determine the responsible signaling molecule. Microvesicles were obtained from culture media of myofibroblasts and characterized using protein quantification, dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. Uptake of fluorescent MVs in fibroblasts was assessed by flow cytometry. Cytokines concentrations were quantified in MV samples by a multiplex ELISA. Different concentration of MVs or a selected cytokine were used as treatments over fibroblasts culture for 5 days. Following the treatments, parameters linked to the extracellular matrix were studied. Lastly, the selected cytokine was neutralized within MVs before evaluating collagen production. We showed that Wmyo derived-MVs were internalized by dermal fibroblasts. Cytokine array analysis revealed that a large amount of placental growth factor 1 (PLGF-1) (0.88 ± 0.63 pg/μg proteins in MVs) could be detected in MVs samples. Cutaneous fibroblasts treated with MVs or PLGF-1 showed significantly stimulated procollagen I level production (Fold change of 1.80 ± 0.18 and 2.07 ± 0.18, respectively). Finally, the neutralization of PLGF-1 in MVs significantly inhibited the production of procollagen I by fibroblasts. Our study shows that Wmyo derived-MVs are involved in intercellular communication by stimulating collagen production by fibroblasts during wound healing. This effect is possibly attained through PLGF-1 signalling. These findings represent a promising opportunity to gain insight into how MVs and Wmyo may mediate the healing of a skin wound.

Abstract
With the rapid breakthrough of electrochemical treatment of tumors, electric field (EF)-sensitive genes, previously rarely exploited, have become an emerging field recently. Here, we reported our work for the identification of EF-sensitive genes in lung cancer cells. The gene expression profile (GSE33845), in which the human lung cancer CL1-0 cells were treated with a direct current electric field (dcEF) (300 mV/mm) for 2 h, was retrieved from GEO database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were acquired, followed by Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway (KEGG) and protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis. Hub genes were acquired and analyzed by various tools including the Human Protein Atlas, Kaplan-Meier analysis, Cytoscape, FunRich, Oncomine and cBioPortal. Subsequently, three-dimensional protein models of hub genes were modeled by Modeller 9.20 and Rosetta 3.9. Finally, a 100 ns molecular dynamics simulation for each hub protein was performed with GROMACS 2018.2. A total of 257 DEGs were acquired and analyzed by GO, KEGG and PPI. Then, 10 hub genes were obtained, and the signal pathway analysis showed that two inflammatory pathways were activated: the FoxO signaling pathway and the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway. The molecular dynamic analysis including RMSD and the radius of gyration hinted that the 3D structures of hub proteins were built. Overall, our work identified EF-sensitive genes in lung cancer cells and identified that the inflammatory state of tumor cells may be involved in the feedback mechanism of lung cancer cells in response to electric field stimulation. In addition, qualified three-dimensional protein models of hub genes were also constructed, which will be helpful in understanding the complex effects of dcEF on human lung cancer CL1-0 cells.

miR-27b promotes angiogenesis and skin repair in scalded rats through regulating VEGF-C expression. Lasers Med Sci 2020; 35:1577-1588.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of miR-27b on angiogenesis in skin repair procedure in rats with deep II degree scald were explored. The rat model of deep II scald was established. miR-27b mimics and inhibitor were injected daily at the wound site for 3 weeks. The healing of scald was observed at 0, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days after the model was established, and the pathological changes of skin were observed by HE and Masson's trichrome stains. Skin tissues were taken 14 days after the operation; CD31 and Ki-67 immunohistochemistry was exerted to evaluate neovascularization and proliferation. Human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) cells were cultured in vitro. miR-27b mimics or inhibitor was transfected to construct over-expression or inhibition cell lines. MTT assay, scratch test, and angiogenesis test were used to evaluate cell proliferation, migration, and vascular regeneration. Finally, RT-PCR and Western blot were exerted to determine the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C), epidermal growth factor (EGF) mRNAs, and protein, respectively. Control, inhibitor, mi-NC, VEGF-C, inhibitor + si-NC, and inhibitor + VEGF-C siRNA groups were used to further analyze the mechanism of miR-27b on VEGF-C; the above experiments were repeated. In contrast to model group, miR-27b inhibitor could significantly promote the healing of scalded skin, alleviate the pathological status of scalded, and promote the angiogenesis and proliferation (p < 0.05). In vitro, miR-27b inhibitor evidently promoted cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis and increased the expression of VEGF-C, EGF genes, and protein, while miR-27b mimics significantly reversed the above trends. Further studies shown that downregulation of miR-27b expression can promote the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of HMEC-1 cells by promoting the expression of VEGF-C. miR-27b promotes angiogenesis and skin repair in scalded rats through regulating VEGF-C expression.

Melatonin Attenuates Cardiac Reperfusion Stress by Improving OPA1-Related Mitochondrial Fusion in a Yap-Hippo Pathway-Dependent Manner. J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2020; 73:27-39.

Abstract
The role of OPA1-related mitochondrial fusion in cardiac reperfusion stress has remained elusive. The aim of our study is to explore whether melatonin alleviates cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury by modulating OPA1-related mitochondrial fusion. We found that melatonin reduced infarct area, sustained myocardial function, and suppressed cardiomyocyte death during cardiac reperfusion stress. Biological studies have revealed that IR-inhibited mitochondrial fusion was largely reversed by melatonin through upregulated OPA1 expression. Knocking down OPA1 abrogated the protective effects of melatonin on mitochondrial energy metabolism and mitochondrial apoptosis. In addition, we also found that melatonin modified OPA1 expression through the Yap–Hippo pathway; blockade of the Yap–Hippo pathway induced cardiomyocyte death and mitochondrial damage despite treatment with melatonin. Altogether, our data demonstrated that cardiac IR injury is closely associated with defective OPA1-related mitochondrial fusion. Melatonin supplementation enhances OPA1-related mitochondrial fusion by activating the Yap–Hippo pathway, ultimately reducing cardiac reperfusion stress.

Abstract
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process that takes place during embryonic development, wound healing, and under some pathological processes, including fibrosis and tumor progression. The molecular changes occurring within epithelial cells during transformation to a mesenchymal phenotype have been well studied. However, to date, the mechanism of EMT induction remains to be fully elucidated. Recent findings in the field of intercellular communication have shed new light on this process and indicate the need for further studies into this important mechanism. New evidence supports the hypothesis that intercellular communication between mesenchymal stroma/stem cells (MSCs) and resident epithelial cells plays an important role in EMT induction. Besides direct interactions between cells, indirect paracrine interactions by soluble factors and extracellular vesicles also occur. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of intercellular communication, through the transfer of biologically active molecules, genetic material (mRNA, microRNA, siRNA, DNA), and EMT inducers to the target cells, which are capable of reprogramming recipient cells. In this review, we discuss the role of intercellular communication by EVs to induce EMT and the acquisition of stemness properties by normal and tumor epithelial cells.

Abstract
Oral maxillofacial defects may always lead to complicated hard and soft tissue loss, including bone, nerve, blood vessels, teeth and skin, which are difficult to restore and severely influence the life quality of patients. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, microvesicles and apoptotic bodies, are emerging as potential solutions for complex tissue regeneration through cell-free therapies. In this review, we highlight the functional roles of EVs in the regenerative medicine for oral maxillofacial rehabilitation, specifically bone, skin, blood vessels, peripheral nerve and tooth-related tissue regeneration. Publications were reviewed by two researchers independently basing on three databases (PubMed, MEDLINE and Web of Science), until 31 December 2018. Basing on current researches, we classified the origin of EVs for regenerative medicine into four categories: related cells in the regenerative niche, mesenchymal stem cells, immune cells and body fluids. The secretome of different cells are distinct, while the same cells secrete different EVs under varied conditions; therefore, the content profiles of EVs and regulatory mechanisms on target cells are compared and emphasised. By unravelling the regulatory mechanisms of EVs in tissue regeneration, modified cells and tailored EVs with specific target may be produced for precision medicine with high efficacy.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their miRNA cargo are intercellular communicators transmitting their pleiotropic messages between different cell types, tissues, and body fluids. Recently, they have been reported to contribute to skin homeostasis and were identified as members of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype of human dermal fibroblasts. However, the role of EV-miRNAs in paracrine signaling during skin aging is yet unclear. Here we provide evidence for the existence of small EVs in the human skin and dermal interstitial fluid using dermal open flow microperfusion and show that EVs and miRNAs are transferred from dermal fibroblasts to epidermal keratinocytes in 2D cell culture and in human skin equivalents. We further show that the transient presence of senescent fibroblast derived small EVs accelerates scratch closure of epidermal keratinocytes, whereas long-term incubation impairs keratinocyte differentiation in vitro. Finally, we identify vesicular miR-23a-3p, highly secreted by senescent fibroblasts, as one contributor of the EV-mediated effect on keratinocytes in in vitro wound healing assays. To summarize, our findings support the current view that EVs and their miRNA cargo are members of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype and, thus, regulators of human skin homeostasis during aging.

Microvesicles from human adipose stem cells promote wound healing by optimizing cellular functions via AKT and ERK signaling pathways. Stem Cell Res Ther 2019; 10:47. [PMID: 30704535 PMCID: PMC6357421 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-019-1152-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 172] [Impact Index Per Article: 34.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2018] [Revised: 01/08/2019] [Accepted: 01/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Human adipose stem cells (ASCs) have emerged as a promising treatment paradigm for skin wounds. Recent works demonstrate that the therapeutic effect of stem cells is partially mediated by extracellular vesicles, which comprise exosomes and microvesicles. In this study, we investigate the regenerative effects of isolated microvesicles from ASCs and evaluate the mechanisms how ASC microvesicles promote wound healing. METHODS Adipose stem cell-derived microvesicles (ASC-MVs) were isolated by differential ultracentrifugation, stained by PKH26, and characterized by electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering (DLS). We examined ASC-MV effects on proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells both in vitro and in vivo. Next, we explored the underlying mechanisms by gene expression analysis and the activation levels of AKT and ERK signaling pathways in all three kinds of cells after ASC-MV stimulation. We then assessed the effect of ASC-MVs on collagen deposition, neovascularization, and re-epithelialization in an in vivo skin injury model. RESULTS ASC-MVs could be readily internalized by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), HaCAT, and fibroblasts and significantly promoted the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of these cells both in vitro and in vivo. The gene expression of proliferative markers (cyclin D1, cyclin D2, cyclin A1, cyclin A2) and growth factors (VEGFA, PDGFA, EGF, FGF2) was significantly upregulated after ASC-MV treatment. Importantly, ASC-MVs stimulated the activation of AKT and ERK signaling pathways in those cells. The local injection of ASC-MVs at wound sites significantly increased the re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, and neovascularization and led to accelerated wound closure. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that ASC-MVs can stimulate HUVEC, HaCAT, and fibroblast functions. ASC-MV therapy significantly accelerates wound healing, and the benefits of ASC-MVs may due to the involvement of AKT and ERK signaling pathways. This illustrates the therapeutic potential of ASC-MVs which may become a novel treatment paradigm for cutaneous wound healing.

Abstract
Cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury results mainly from mitochondrial dysfunction and cardiomyocyte death. Mitophagy sustains mitochondrial function and exerts a pro-survival effect on the reperfused heart tissue. Mammalian STE20-like kinase 1 (Mst1) regulates chronic cardiac metabolic damage and autophagic activity, but its role in acute cardiac I/R injury, especially its effect on mitophagy, is unknown. The aim of this study is to explore whether Mst1 is involved in reperfusion-mediated cardiomyocyte death via modulation of FUN14 domain containing 1 (FUNDC1)-related mitophagy. Our data indicated that Mst1 was markedly increased in reperfused hearts. However, genetic ablation of Mst1 in Mst1-knockout (Mst1-KO) mice significantly reduced the expansion of the cardiac infarction area, maintained myocardial function and abolished I/R-mediated cardiomyocyte death. At the molecular level, upregulation of Mst1 promoted ROS production, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, facilitated the leakage of mitochondrial pro-apoptotic factors into the nucleus, and activated the caspase-9-related apoptotic pathway in reperfused cardiomyocytes. Mechanistically, Mst1 activation repressed FUNDC1 expression and consequently inhibited mitophagy. However, deletion of Mst1 was able to reverse FUNDC1 expression and thus re-activate protective mitophagy, effectively sustaining mitochondrial homeostasis and blocking mitochondrial apoptosis in reperfused cardiomyocytes. Finally, we demonstrated that Mst1 regulated FUNDC1 expression via the MAPK/ERK-CREB pathway. Inhibition of the MAPK/ERK-CREB pathway prevented FUNDC1 activation caused by Mst1 deletion. Altogether, our data confirm that Mst1 deficiency sends a pro-survival signal for the reperfused heart by reversing FUNDC1-related mitophagy and thus reducing cardiomyocyte mitochondrial apoptosis, which identifies Mst1 as a novel regulator for cardiac reperfusion injury via modulation of mitochondrial homeostasis.

Abstract
Primary endothelial cells are needed for angiogenesis studies, and more particularly in the field of tissue engineering, to engineer pre-vascularized tissues. Investigations often use human umbilical vein endothelial cells due to their extensive characterization, but also because they are easy to obtain and isolate. An alternative is the use of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells, more representative of adult skin angiogenesis and vascularization processes. This chapter presents a detailed methodology to isolate and culture microvascular endothelial cells from skin biopsies based on enzymatic digestion and mechanical extraction.

Abstract
Matrine is a natural alkaloid isolated from the root and stem of the legume plant Sophora. Its anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on several types of cancer have been well-documented. However, the role of matrine in regulating mitochondrial homeostasis, particularly mitophagy in liver cancer apoptosis, remains uncertain. The aim of our study was to explore whether matrine promotes liver cancer cell apoptosis by modifying mitophagy. HepG2 cells were used in the study and treated with different doses of matrine. Cell viability and apoptosis were determined by MTT assay, TUNEL staining, western blotting, and LDH release assay. Mitophagy was monitored by immunofluorescence assay and western blotting. Mitochondrial function was assessed by immunofluorescence assay, ELISA, and western blotting. The results of our study indicated that matrine treatment dose-dependently reduced cell viability and increased the apoptotic rate of HepG2 cells. Functional studies demonstrated that matrine treatment induced mitochondrial dysfunction and activated mitochondrial apoptosis by inhibiting protective mitophagy. Re-activation of mitophagy abolished the pro-apoptotic effects of matrine on HepG2 cells. Molecular investigations further confirmed that matrine regulated mitophagy via the PINK1/Parkin pathways. Matrine blocked the PINK1/Parkin pathways and repressed mitophagy, whereas activation of the PINK1/Parkin pathways increased mitophagy activity and promoted HepG2 cell survival in the presence of matrine. Together, our data indicated that matrine promoted HepG2 cell apoptosis through a novel mechanism that acted via inhibiting mitophagy and the PINK1/Parkin pathways. This finding provides new insight into the molecular mechanism of matrine for treating liver cancer and offers a potential target to repress liver cancer progression by modulating mitophagy and the PINK1/Parkin pathways.

Despite extensive research that has been carried out over the past three decades in the field of renal ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, the pathogenic role of mitochondrial fission in renal I/R injury is poorly understood. The aim of our study is to investigate the molecular mechanism by which mammalian STE20-like kinase 1 (Mst1) participates in renal I/R injury through modifying mitochondrial fission, microtubule cytoskeleton dynamics, and the GSK3β-p53 signalling pathway. Our data demonstrated that genetic ablation of Mst1 improved renal function, alleviated reperfusion-mediated tubular epithelial cell apoptosis, and attenuated the vulnerability of kidney to I/R injury. At the molecular level, Mst1 upregulation exacerbated mitochondrial damage, as evidenced by reduced mitochondrial potential, increased ROS generation, more cyt-c liberation from mitochondria into the cytoplasm, and an activated mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Furthermore, we demonstrated that I/R-mediated mitochondrial damage resulted from mitochondrial fission, and the blockade of mitochondrial fission preserved mitochondrial homeostasis in the I/R setting. Functional studies have discovered that Mst1 regulated mitochondrial fission through two mechanisms: induction of Drp1 phosphorylation and enhancement of F-actin assembly. Activated Mst1 promoted Drp1 phosphorylation at Ser616, contributing to Drp1 translocation from the cytoplasm to the surface of the mitochondria. Additionally, Mst1 facilitated F-actin polymerization, contributing to mitochondrial contraction. Finally, we confirmed that Mst1 regulated Drp1 post-transcriptional modification and F-actin stabilization via the GSK3β-p53 signalling pathway. Inhibition of GSK3β-p53 signalling provided a survival advantage for the tubular epithelial cell in the context of renal I/R injury by repressing mitochondrial fission. Collectively, our study identified Mst1 as the primary pathogenesis for the development and progression of renal I/R injury via activation of fatal mitochondrial fission by modulating Drp1 phosphorylation, microtubule cytoskeleton dynamics, and the GSK3β-p53 signalling pathway. Mst1 deletion sustains renal function after I/R injury. Excessive mitochondrial fission accounts for Mst1-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis. Mst1 enhances reperfusion-mediated mitochondrial fission via Drp1 phosphorylation and F-actin polymerization. Mst1 regulates Drp1 phosphorylation and F-actin polymerization by activating the GSK3β-p53 axis.

Tanshinone IIA promotes IL2-mediated SW480 colorectal cancer cell apoptosis by triggering INF2-related mitochondrial fission and activating the Mst1-Hippo pathway. Biomed Pharmacother 2018; 108:1658-1669. [PMID: 30372868 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2018.09.170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2018] [Revised: 09/27/2018] [Accepted: 09/28/2018] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
IL-2-based therapy is a promising tool to treat colorectal cancer, but drug resistance always occurs in clinical practice. Mitochondrial fission is a novel target to modulate cancer development and progression. The aim of our study is to explore the effect of IL-2 combined with Tan IIA on SW480 colorectal cancer cell apoptosis in vitro and to determine whether IL-2/Tan IIA cotreatment could reduce SW480 cell viability via activating mitochondrial fission. The results indicated that Tan IIA increased IL-2-mediated cell death in SW480 colorectal cancer cells, and this effect was also accompanied with a reduction in cell proliferation. Functional investigations demonstrated that Tan IIA/IL-2 cotreatment enhanced INF2-related mitochondrial fission. Excessive mitochondrial division induced mitochondrial oxidative stress, mitochondrial energy metabolism disorder and mitochondrial apoptosis in SW480 cells. Inhibition of mitochondrial fission attenuated the antitumor effect of Tan IIA/IL-2 cotreatment on SW480 cell apoptosis. Further, we demonstrated that Tan IIA/IL-2 combination therapy controlled INF2-related mitochondrial fission via the Mst1-Hippo pathway. Moreover, Mst1 knockdown abrogated Tan IIA/IL-2-activated mitochondrial fission. Altogether, our results demonstrated that Tan IIA enhances the therapeutic efficiency of IL-2-mediated SW480 colorectal cancer cell apoptosis via promoting INF2-related mitochondrial fission and activating the Mst1-Hippo pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Stem cell transplantation is a promising tool to treat burn injuries. However, the inflammatory microenvironment in damaged skin limits the efficiency of stem cell-based therapy via poorly understood mechanisms. The aim of our study is to explore the contribution and mechanism of Sirtuin-1 (Sirt1) in TNFα-mediated inflammatory stress in hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). METHODS Cellular viability was determined using the MTT assay, TUNEL staining, western blot analysis and LDH release assay. Adenovirus-loaded Sirt1 was transduced into HFSCs to overexpress Sirt1 in the presence of TNFα. Mitochondrial function was determined using JC-1 staining, mitochondrial ROS staining, immunofluorescence staining and western blotting. RESULTS Sirt1 was downregulated in response to the TNFα treatment. Additionally, TNFα stress reduced the viability, mobility and proliferation of HFSCs, and these effects were reversed by the overexpression of Sirt1. At the molecular level, Sirt1 overexpression attenuated TNFα-mediated mitochondrial damage, as evidenced by increased mitochondrial energy metabolism, decreased mitochondrial ROS generation, stabilized mitochondrial potential and blockage of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Furthermore, Sirt1 modulated mitochondrial homeostasis by activating the MAPK-ERK-Mfn2 axis; inhibition of this pathway abrogated the protective effects of Sirt1 on HFSC survival, migration and proliferation. SIGNIFICANCE Based on our results, the inflammatory stress-mediated HFSC injury may be associated with a decrease in Sirt1 expression and subsequent mitochondrial dysfunction. Accordingly, strategies designed to enhance Sirt1 expression would be an effective approach to enhance the survival of HFSCs in the inflammatory microenvironment.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) potentiates existing brain damage and increases mortality and morbidity via poorly understood mechanisms. The aim of our study is to investigate the role of Sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) in the development and progression of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury with a focus on mitochondrial fission and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Our data indicated that Sirt3 was downregulated in response to cerebral IRI. However, the overexpression of Sirt3 reduced the brain infarction area and repressed IRI-mediated neuron apoptosis. Functional assays demonstrated that IRI augmented mitochondrial fission, which induced ROS overproduction, redox imbalance, mitochondrial pro-apoptotic protein leakage, and caspase-9-dependent cell death pathway activation. However, the overexpression of Sirt3 blocked mitochondrial fission and induced pro-survival signals in neurons subjected to IRI. At the molecular level, our data further illustrated that the Wnt/β-catenin pathway is required for the neuroprotection exerted by Sirt3 overexpression. Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation via inhibiting β-catenin phosphorylation attenuates mitochondrial fission and mitochondrial apoptosis. Collectively, our data show that cerebral IRI is associated with Sirt3 downregulation, Wnt/β-catenin pathway phosphorylated inactivation, and mitochondrial fission initiation, causing neurons to undergo caspase-9-dependent cell death. Based on this, strategies for enhancing Sirt3 activity and activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway could be therapeutic targets for treating cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been acknowledged as the key pathogenic mechanism in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Mitophagy is the protective system used to sustain mitochondrial homeostasis. However, the upstream regulator of mitophagy in response to brain IR injury is not completely understood. Nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1 (NR4A1) has been found to be associated with mitochondrial protection in a number of diseases. The aim of our study is to explore the functional role of NR4A1 in cerebral IR injury, with a particular focus on its influence on mitophagy. Wild-type mice and NR4A1-knockout mice were used to generate cerebral IR injury in vivo. Mitochondrial function and mitophagy were detected via immunofluorescence assays and western blotting. Cellular apoptosis was determined via MTT assays, caspase-3 activity and western blotting. Our data revealed that NR4A1 was significantly increased in the reperfused brain tissues. Genetic ablation of NR4A1 reduced the cerebral infarction area and repressed neuronal apoptosis. The functional study demonstrated that NR4A1 modulated cerebral IR injury by inducing mitochondrial damage. Higher NR4A1 promoted mitochondrial potential reduction, evoked cellular oxidative stress, interrupted ATP generation, and initiated caspase-9-dependent apoptosis. Mechanistically, NR4A1 induced mitochondrial damage by disrupting Mfn2-mediated mitophagy. Knockdown of NR4A1 elevated Mfn2 expression and therefore reversed mitophagic activity, sending a prosurvival signal for mitochondria in the setting of cerebral IR injury. Further, we demonstrated that NR4A1 modulated Mfn2 expression via the MAPK-ERK-CREB signaling pathway. Blockade of the ERK pathway could abrogate the permissive effect of NR4A1 deletion on mitophagic activation, contributing to neuronal mitochondrial apoptosis. Overall, our results demonstrate that the pathogenesis of cerebral IR injury is closely associated with a drop in protective mitophagy due to increased NR4A1 through the MAPK-ERK-CREB signaling pathway.

Abstract
The formation of new blood vessels, or angiogenesis, is a complex process that plays important roles in growth and development, tissue and organ regeneration, as well as numerous pathological conditions. Angiogenesis undergoes multiple discrete steps that can be individually evaluated and quantified by a large number of bioassays. These independent assessments hold advantages but also have limitations. This article describes in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro bioassays that are available for the evaluation of angiogenesis and highlights critical aspects that are relevant for their execution and proper interpretation. As such, this collaborative work is the first edition of consensus guidelines on angiogenesis bioassays to serve for current and future reference.

Redox Biol 2018; 18:229-243. [PMID: 30056271 PMCID: PMC6079484 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2018.07.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 247] [Impact Index Per Article: 41.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2018] [Revised: 07/18/2018] [Accepted: 07/19/2018] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Increased mitochondrial damage is related to the progression of a diet-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. The aim of our study is to investigate the role of Sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) in treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease with a focus on mitophagy and the ERK-CREB pathway. Our data indicated that Sirt3 was downregulated in liver tissue in response to chronic HFD treatment. Interestingly, re-introduction of Sirt3 protected hepatic function, attenuated liver fibrosis, alleviated the inflammatory response, and prevented hepatocyte apoptosis. Molecular investigations demonstrated that lipotoxicity was associated with an increase in mitochondrial apoptosis as evidenced by reduced mitochondrial potential, augmented ROS production, increased cyt-c leakage into the nucleus, and activated caspase-9 apoptotic signalling. Additionally, Sirt3 overexpression protected hepatocytes against mitochondrial apoptosis via promoting Bnip3-required mitophagy. Functional studies showed that Sirt3 reversed Bnip3 expression and mitophagy activity via the ERK-CREB signalling pathway. Blockade of the ERK-CREB axis repressed the promotive effects of Sirt3 on Bnip3 activation and mitophagy augmentation, finally negating the anti-apoptotic influences of Sirt3 on hepatocytes in the setting of high-fat-stress. Collectively, our data show that high-fat-mediated liver damage is associated with Sirt3 downregulation, which is followed by ERK-CREB pathway inactivation and Bnip3-mediated inhibition of mitophagy, causing hepatocytes to undergo mitochondria-dependent cell death. Based on this, strategies for enhancing Sirt3 activity and activating the ERK-CREB-Bnip3-mitophagy pathways could be used to treat nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Sirt3 overexpression prevents diet-mediated fatty liver disease. Sirt3 blocks hepatocyte mitochondrial apoptosis in the setting of high-fat injury. Bnip3-mediated mitophagy protects mitochondria against high-fat-mediated damage. Sirt3 controls Bnip3-mediated mitophagy via the ERK-CREB signalling pathway.

Abstract
The mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis is pivotal to the maintenance of an array of physiological processes. The physical contact and association between ER and mitochondria, known as the ER–mitochondria microdomains or mitochondria-associated ER membrane (MAM), temporally and spatially regulates the mitochondria/ER structure and function. More evidence suggests a role for MAMs in energy production, cellular contraction and mobility, and normal extracellular signal transmission. In pathological states, such as cardiac ischemia–reperfusion (I/R injury), this ER–mitochondria microdomains may act to participate in the cellular redox imbalance, ER stress, mitochondrial injury, energy deletion, and programmed cell death. From a therapeutic perspective, a better understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms of the pathogenic ER–mitochondria contact should help to identify potential therapeutic target for cardiac I/R injury and other cardiovascular diseases and also pave the road to new treatment modalities pertinent for the treatment of reperfusion damage in clinical practice. This review will mainly focus on the possible signaling pathways involved in the regulation of the ER–mitochondria contact. In particular, we will summarize the downstream signaling modalities influenced by ER–mitochondria microdomains, for example, mitochondrial fission, mitophagy, calcium balance, oxidative stress, and programmed cell death in details.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AT) is a progressive chronic disease involving lipid accumulation, fibrosis, and inflammation in medium and large-sized arteries, and it is the main cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD). AT is caused by dyslipidemia and mediated by both innate and adaptive immune responses. Despite lipid-lowering drugs have shown to decrease the risk of cardiovascular events (CVEs), there is a significant burden of AT-related morbidity and mortality. Identification of subjects at increased risk for CVE as well as discovery of novel therapeutic targets for improved treatment strategies are still unmet clinical needs in CVD. Microvesicles (MVs), small extracellular plasma membrane particles shed by activated and apoptotic cells have been widely linked to the development of CVD. MVs from vascular and resident cells by facilitating exchange of biological information between neighboring cells serve as cellular effectors in the bloodstream and play a key role in all stages of disease progression. This article reviews the current knowledge on the role of MVs in AT and CVD. Attention is focused on novel aspects of MV-mediated regulatory mechanisms from endothelial dysfunction, vascular wall inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis to coagulation and thrombosis in the progression and development of atherothrombosis. MV contribution to vascular remodeling is also discussed, with a particular emphasis on the effect of MVs on the crosstalk between endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells, and their role regulating the active process of AT-driven angiogenesis and neovascularization. This review also highlights the latest findings and main challenges on the potential prognostic, diagnostic, and therapeutic value of cell-derived MVs in CVD. In summary, MVs have emerged as new regulators of biological functions in atherothrombosis and might be instrumental in cardiovascular precision medicine; however, significant efforts are still needed to translate into clinics the latest findings on MV regulation and function.
