Abstract
BACKGROUND Dysregulated alterations in organelle structure and function have a significant connection with cell death, as well as the occurrence and development of inflammatory diseases. Maintaining cell viability and inhibiting the release of inflammatory cytokines are essential measures to treat inflammatory diseases. Recently, many studies have showed that autophagy selectively targets dysfunctional organelles, thereby sustaining the functional stability of organelles, alleviating the release of multiple cytokines, and maintaining organismal homeostasis. Organellophagy dysfunction is critically engaged in different kinds of cell death and inflammatory diseases. AIM OF REVIEW We summarized the current knowledge of organellophagy (e.g., mitophagy, reticulophagy, golgiphagy, lysophagy, pexophagy, nucleophagy, and ribophagy) and the underlying mechanisms by which organellophagy regulates cell death. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW We outlined the potential role of organellophagy in the modulation of cell fate during the inflammatory response to develop an intervention strategy for the organelle quality control in inflammatory diseases.

ATF5 Attenuates Low-magnesium-induced Apoptosis by Inhibiting Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Via the Regulation of Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species. Neuroscience 2023; 535:13-22. [PMID: 37913858 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2023.10.020] [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: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 10/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023]
Abstract
Mitochondrial stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) are known to be closely linked. ATF5 is a key regulator of mitochondrial stress and is involved in ERS regulation. Previously, we used a seizure model to demonstrate that ATF5 regulates mitochondrial stress. However, whether ATF5 affects ERS in epilepsy models has yet to be elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the effects of ATF5 on low-magnesium-induced ERS and the potential mechanisms that underlie these effects. We found that lentiviral overexpression of ATF5 significantly improved low-magnesium-induced ERS, as confirmed by the reduced expression levels of GRP78, PERK, ATF4, and CHOP. In addition, ATF5 overexpression reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and elevated superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, thus demonstrating that ATF5 plays a key role in maintaining redox homeostasis. Furthermore, ATF5 overexpression rescued low-magnesium-induced neuronal apoptosis, as evidenced by the reduced expression levels of Cleaved-caspase-3 and Bax, and the restored levels of Bcl2. However, these effects were significantly eliminated by lentiviral transduction with ATF5 interference. In addition, treatment of neurons with the mitochondrial antioxidant mitoquinone attenuated the onset of oxidative stress caused by ATF5 interference, partially restored the effect on ERS, and rescued cells from apoptosis. Collectively, these data show that ATF5 attenuates low-magnesium-induced neuronal apoptosis by inhibiting ERS through preventing the accumulation of mitochondrial ROS.

Abstract
Autophagy is the process by which cells degrade and recycle proteins and organelles to maintain intracellular homeostasis. Generally, autophagy plays a protective role in cells, but disruption of autophagy mechanisms or excessive autophagic flux usually leads to cell death. Despite recent progress in the study of the regulation and underlying molecular mechanisms of autophagy, numerous questions remain to be answered. How does autophagy regulate cell death? What are the fine-tuned regulatory mechanisms underlying autophagy-dependent cell death (ADCD) and autophagy-mediated cell death (AMCD)? In this article, we highlight the different roles of autophagy in cell death and discuss six of the main autophagy-related cell death modalities, with a focus on the metabolic changes caused by excessive endoplasmic reticulum-phagy (ER-phagy)-induced cell death and the role of mitophagy in autophagy-mediated ferroptosis. Finally, we discuss autophagy enhancement in the treatment of diseases and offer a new perspective based on the use of autophagy for different functional conversions (including the conversion of autophagy and that of different autophagy-mediated cell death modalities) for the clinical treatment of tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Family with sequence similarity 134, member B (FAM134B), also known as Reticulophagy regulator 1 (RETREG1), is an ER-phagy receptor involved in ER homeostasis. Congenital mutations in the FAM134B gene have been reported to be associated with hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 2B (HSAN2B); however, the molecular differences between wild-type and HSAN2B-linked FAM134B are not fully understood. METHODS AND RESULTS We prepared several human FAM134B constructs, such as the HSAN2B-linked mutant, and compared their features with those of wild-type FAM134B by transfecting these constructs into FAM134B-deficient Neuro2a cells. Although intrinsic FAM134B protein expression in wild-type Neuro2a cells was affected by the supply of amino acids in the culture medium, the expression of each HSAN2B-linked mutant FAM134B protein was hardly affected by serum and amino acid deprivation. On the other hand, the intracellular localization of GFP-tagged HSAN2B-linked mutants, except for P7Gfs133X, overlapped well with ER-localized SP-RFPKDEL and did not differ from that of GFP-tagged wild-type FAM134B. However, analysis of protein‒protein interactions using the NanoBiT reporter assay revealed the difference between wild-type and C-terminal truncated mutant FAM134B. Furthermore, this NanoBiT assay demonstrated that both wild-type and G216R FAM134B interacted with LC3/GABARAPL1 to the same extent, but the FAM134B construct with mutations near the LC3-interacting region (LIR) did not. Similar to the NanoBiT assay, the C-terminal-truncated FAM134B showed lower ER-phagy activities, as assessed by the cotransfection of GFP-tagged reporters. CONCLUSIONS We showed that wild-type and HSAN2B-linked FAM134B have different molecular characteristics by transfecting cells with various types of constructs. Thus, this study provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying HSAN2B as well as the regulation of ER-phagy.

Abstract
The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (mtUPR)-a stress response pathway for maintaining protein homeostasis-is critical in seizures-induced neuronal injury. The activating transcription factor 5 (ATF5) regulates mtUPR; however, whether ATF5-regulated mtUPR has a role in neuronal injury in epilepsy remains uncertain. Here, we investigated the effects of ATF5-regulated mtUPR on neuronal injury in hippocampal neurons with seizures evoked by Mg2+-free medium. HSP60 and ClpP, key proteins of mtUPR, were upregulated, indicating mtUPR activation. ATF5 overexpression by lentiviral vector infection potentiated mtUPR, whereas ATF5 downregulation by lentiviral vector infection attenuated this response. Moreover, ATF5 overexpression elevated mitochondrial membrane potential and reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, suggesting that ATF5 overexpression protected mitochondrial homeostasis, while ATF5 downregulation had the opposite effect. ATF5 overexpression also reversed Bcl2 downregulation and Bax upregulation and attenuated seizures-induced neuronal apoptosis, while ATF5 downregulation aggravated the injury. Our study demonstrates that ATF5 attenuates seizures-induced neuronal injury, possibly by regulating mtUPR pathways, to prevent mitochondrial dysfunction.

Abstract
FAM134B is also known as the reticulophagy regulator 1 (RETREG1) or JK-1. FAM134B consists of two long hydrophobic fragments with a reticulon-homology domain, an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain, and a C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. FAM134B plays an important role in regulating selective ER-phagy, and is related to the occurrence and development of many diseases. In the present review, we describe theFAM134B molecular structure, subcellular localization, tissue distribution, and review its mechanisms of action during selective ER-phagy. Furthermore, we summarize the relationship between FAM134B and diseases, including neoplastic diseases, degenerative diseases, central nervous system disease, and infectious diseases. Considering the pleiotropic action of FAM134B, targeting FAM134B may be a potent therapeutic avenue for these diseases.

Abstract
Neonicotinoids are the most widely used pesticides in the world. However, research studies have shown that it can affect the cognitive abilities and health of non-target bees and other wild pollinators by inducing DNA damage, apoptosis and mitochondrial damage, injure to its central nervous system, and it is even developmentally neurotoxic to mammals and humans, with mitochondria being an important target of neonicotinoids. Therefore, this article reviews the role of mitochondrial morphology, calcium ions (Ca2+) homeostasis, respiratory function, apoptosis, and DNA damage in neonicotinoids-induced systemic toxicity. Additionally, it evaluates the protective effects of various active substances including vitamin C, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), curcumin (CUR), glutathione reduced (GSH), caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), resveratrol, and thymoquinone (TQ) on neonicotinoids-induced toxicity. This review manuscript found that mitochondria are important targets to neonicotinoids. Neonicotinoids can cause DNA damage, apoptosis, protein oxidation, and lipid peroxidation in non-target organisms by altering mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis, inhibiting mitochondrial respiration, and inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Several active substances (vitamin C, NAC, CUR, GSH, resveratrol, CAPE, and TQ) play a protective role against neonicotinoid-induced systemic toxicity by inhibiting ROS signaling pathways, apoptosis, and lipid peroxidation. This review manuscript emphasizes the importance and urgency of the development of neonicotinoid antidotes, emphasizes the prospect of the application of targeted mitochondrial antidotes, and prospects the development of neonicotinoid antidotes in order to provide some strategies for the prevention of neonicotinoid toxicity.

Abstract
Mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) are dynamic membrane coupling regions formed by the coupling of the mitochondrial outer membrane and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). MAMs are involved in the mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy, Ca2+ exchange, and ER stress. A large number of studies indicate that many proteins are involved in the formation of MAMs, including dynamic-related protein 1 (Drp1), DJ-1, PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK), α-synuclein (α-syn), sigma-1 receptor (S1R), mitofusin-2 (Mfn2), presenilin-1 (PS1), protein kinase R (PKR)-like ER kinase (PERK), Parkin, Cyclophilin D (CypD), glucose-related protein 75 (Grp75), FUN14 domain containing 1 (Fundc1), vesicle-associated membrane-protein-associated protein B (VAPB), phosphofurin acidic cluster sorting protein 2 (PACS-2), ER oxidoreductin 1 (Ero1), and receptor expression-enhancing protein 1 (REEP1). These proteins play an important role in the structure and functions of the MAMs. Abnormalities in these MAM proteins further contribute to the occurrence and development of related diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases, non-alcoholicfattyliverdisease (NALFD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and diabetic kidney (DN). In this review, we introduce important proteins involved in the structure and the functions of the MAMs. Furthermore, we effectively summarize major insights about these proteins that are involved in the physiopathology of several diseases through the effect on MAMs.

Abstract
DNA methylation is reportedly associated with stress responses and depression. Treatment with antidepressants can regulate DNA methylation and, subsequently, gene expression in the hippocampus. Hence, DNA methylation is a potential target for treatment of depression. Screening of high-throughput data of a rat model of chronic unpredictable mild stress revealed relatively low expression of SH2 domain-containing 5 (SH2D5). SH2D5 can be overexpressed by treatment with helicid. Therefore, in order to further explore the role of SH2D5 in depression and whether helicid mediates the DNA methylation of SH2D5 as a potential antidepressant role, SH2D5 was overexpressed in C6 cells as a lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced model of depression. The expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2, Bad, and Daxx, and changes to the CytC/caspase9/caspase3 signal pathway were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot analyses. After treatment with helicid or silencing of SH2D5, the above indices were detected. The results showed that helicid regulated the CytC/caspase9/caspase3 signaling pathway and improved the apoptosis indices of C6 cells through the overexpression of SH2D5. Interestingly, silencing of SH2D5 reversed the effects of helicid on the above indices. Then, in order to study the underlying mechanism, the cells were administered to helicid or 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-AzaD) and expression of SH2D5 was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot analyses, while to assess the DNA methylation level of SH2D5 using bisulfite sequencing/PCR. The results showed that SH2D5 was hypermethylated with low expression in LPS-induced C6 cells, which was reversed by helicid and 5-AzaD. These results suggest that helicid may affect the CytC/caspase9/caspase3 apoptosis signaling pathway and improve the apoptosis indices by mediating DNA methylation of SH2D5.

The Mitochondrial-Associated Endoplasmic Reticulum Membrane and Its Role in Diabetic Nephropathy. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:8054817. [PMID: 34777695 PMCID: PMC8589504 DOI: 10.1155/2021/8054817] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2021] [Revised: 08/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
The mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) is located between the outer mitochondrial membrane and the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. The MAM is involved in a wide range of cellular functions, including calcium signaling, the division and fusion of mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and the synthesis and transport of lipids. Recent studies have discovered that the MAM is involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). In this article, we summarize the structure, function and role of the MAM in DN. We hope this study will provide clues and a theoretical basis for mechanistic and targeted drug research on DN.
