Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) is the leading cause of death in humans. Research has shown that mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) can reduce neurological sequelae and mortality after CA. Nevertheless, the mechanism remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether MTH promotes neurogenesis, attenuates neuronal damage, and inhibits apoptosis of neurons in rats after CA. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the normothermia and mild hypothermia groups. The rats in the normothermia and hypothermia groups were exposed to 2 h of normothermia (36-37℃) and hypothermia (32-33℃), respectively, immediately after resuscitation from 5 min of asphyxial CA. Corresponding control groups not subjected to CA were included. On days 1-6, 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) 100 mg/kg/day was administered intraperitoneally. The animals were euthanized 1 week after CA. Compared with the normothermia group, the hypothermia group showed a significant increase in the number of doublecortin (DCX) immune-positive cells in the subgranular zone of the hippocampus 1 week after CA. Neurogenesis was assessed using double immunofluorescent labeling of BrdU with neuronal-specific nuclear protein (NeuN)/DCX. There was no marked change in the number of newborn mature (BrdU+-NeuN+) neurons, though there was a significant increase in the number of newborn immature (BrdU+-DCX+) neurons in the hypothermia than in the normothermia group 1 week after CA. Neuronal injury and apoptosis in the CA1 region of the hippocampus, assessed using NeuN immunofluorescence and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling assays, were significantly reduced in the hypothermia group 1 week after CA. Moreover, mild hypothermia increased the expression of cold-shock protein RNA-binding motif protein 3 (RBM3) in the early stage (24 h/48 h) after CA. These results suggested that mild hypothermia promotes generation of neuronal cells, reduces neuronal injury, and inhibits apoptosis of neurons, which may be related to RBM3 expression.

Morphoregulatory functions of the RNA-binding motif protein 3 in cell spreading, polarity and migration. Sci Rep 2018; 8:7367. [PMID: 29743635 PMCID: PMC5943363 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-25668-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2017] [Accepted: 03/27/2018] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
RNA-binding proteins are emerging as key regulators of transitions in cell morphology. The RNA-binding motif protein 3 (RBM3) is a cold-inducible RNA-binding protein with broadly relevant roles in cellular protection, and putative functions in cancer and development. Several findings suggest that RBM3 has morphoregulatory functions germane to its roles in these contexts. For example, RBM3 helps maintain the morphological integrity of cell protrusions during cell stress and disease. Moreover, it is highly expressed in migrating neurons of the developing brain and in cancer invadopodia, suggesting roles in migration. We here show that RBM3 regulates cell polarity, spreading and migration. RBM3 was present in spreading initiation centers, filopodia and blebs that formed during cell spreading in cell lines and primary myoblasts. Reducing RBM3 triggered exaggerated spreading, increased RhoA expression, and a loss of polarity that was rescued by Rho kinase inhibition and overexpression of CRMP2. High RBM3 expression enhanced the motility of cells migrating by a mesenchymal mode involving extension of long protrusions, whereas RBM3 knockdown slowed migration, greatly reducing the ability of cells to extend protrusions and impairing multiple processes that require directional migration. These data establish novel functions of RBM3 of potential significance to tissue repair, metastasis and development.

Abstract
The cold shock protein RBM3 can mediate mild hypothermia-related protection in neurodegeneration such as Alzheimer's disease. However, it remains unclear whether RBM3 and mild hypothermia provide same protection in model of Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disorder. In this study, human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells subjected to insult by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) served as an in-vitro model of PD. Mild hypothermia (32°C) aggravated MPP+-induced apoptosis, which was boosted when RBM3 was silenced by siRNA. In contrast, overexpression of RBM3 significantly reduced this apoptosis. MPP+ treatment downregulated the expression of RBM3 both endogenously and exogenously and suppressed its induction by mild hypothermia (32°C). In conclusion, our data suggest that cold shock protein RBM3 provides neuroprotection in a cell model of PD, suggesting that RBM3 induction may be a suitable strategy for PD therapy. However, mild hypothermia exacerbates MPP+-induced apoptosis even that RBM3 could be synthesized during mild hypothermia.

Abstract
RNA binding motif 3 (RBM3) is a highly conserved cold-induced RNA binding protein that is transcriptionally up-regulated in response to harsh stresses. Featured as RNA binding protein, RBM3 is involved in mRNA biogenesis as well as stimulating protein synthesis, promoting proliferation and exerting anti-apoptotic functions. Nowadays, accumulating immunohistochemically studies have suggested RBM3 function as a proto-oncogene that is associated with tumor progression and metastasis in various cancers. Moreover, emerging evidences have also indicated that RBM3 is equally effective in neuroprotection. In the present review, we provide an overview of current knowledge concerning the role of RBM3 in various cancers and neuroprotection. Additionally, its potential roles as a promising diagnostic marker for cancer and a possible therapeutic target for neuro-related diseases are discussed.

Abstract
Cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP) and RNA-binding motif protein 3 (RBM3) are two evolutionarily conserved RNA-binding proteins that are transcriptionally upregulated in response to low temperature. Featuring an RNA-recognition motif (RRM) and an arginine-glycine-rich (RGG) domain, these proteins display many similarities and specific disparities in the regulation of numerous molecular and cellular events. The resistance to serum withdrawal, endoplasmic reticulum stress, or other harsh conditions conferred by RBM3 has led to its reputation as a survival gene. Once CIRP protein is released from cells, it appears to bolster inflammation, contributing to poor prognosis in septic patients. A variety of human tumor specimens have been analyzed for CIRP and RBM3 expression. Surprisingly, RBM3 expression was primarily found to be positively associated with the survival of chemotherapy-treated patients, while CIRP expression was inversely linked to patient survival. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the evolutionary conservation of CIRP and RBM3 across species as well as their molecular interactions, cellular functions, and roles in diverse physiological and pathological processes, including circadian rhythm, inflammation, neural plasticity, stem cell properties, and cancer development.
