Abstract
A smartphone-mediated self-powered biosensor is fabricated for miRNA-141 detection based on the CRISPR/Cas12a cross-cutting technique and a highly efficient nanozyme. As a novel nanozyme and a signal-amplified coreaction accelerator, the AuPtPd@GDY nanozyme exhibits an excellent ability to catalyze cascade color reactions and high conductivity to enhance the electrochemical signal for miRNA-141 assays. After CRISPR/Cas12a cross-cutting of S2-glucose oxidase (S2-GOD), the electrochemical signal is weakened, and miRNA-141 is detected by monitoring the decrease in the signal. On the other hand, a cascade reaction among glucose, H2O2, and TMB is catalyzed by GOD and AuPtPd@GDY, respectively, resulting in a color change of the solution, which senses miRNA-141. The self-powered biosensor enables value-assisted and visual detection of miRNA-141 with limits of detection of 3.1 and 15 aM, respectively. Based on the dual-modal self-powered sensing system, a smartphone-mediated "all-in-one" biosensing chip is designed to achieve the real-time and intelligent monitoring of miRNA-141. This work provides a new approach to design multifunctional biosensors to realize the visualization and portable detection of tumor biomarkers.

Methyl vinyl ketone and its analogs covalently modify PI3K and alter physiological functions by inhibiting PI3K signaling. J Biol Chem 2024; 300:105679.

Abstract
Reactive carbonyl species (RCS), which are abundant in the environment and are produced in vivo under stress, covalently bind to nucleophilic residues such as Cys in proteins. Disruption of protein function by RCS exposure is predicted to play a role in the development of various diseases such as cancer and metabolic disorders, but most studies on RCS have been limited to simple cytotoxicity validation, leaving their target proteins and resulting physiological changes unknown. In this study, we focused on methyl vinyl ketone (MVK), which is one of the main RCS found in cigarette smoke and exhaust gas. We found that MVK suppressed PI3K-Akt signaling, which regulates processes involved in cellular homeostasis, including cell proliferation, autophagy, and glucose metabolism. Interestingly, MVK inhibits the interaction between the epidermal growth factor receptor and PI3K. Cys656 in the SH2 domain of the PI3K p85 subunit, which is the covalently binding site of MVK, is important for this interaction. Suppression of PI3K-Akt signaling by MVK reversed epidermal growth factor-induced negative regulation of autophagy and attenuated glucose uptake. Furthermore, we analyzed the effects of the 23 RCS compounds with structures similar to MVK and showed that their analogs also suppressed PI3K-Akt signaling in a manner that correlated with their similarities to MVK. Our study demonstrates the mechanism of MVK and its analogs in suppressing PI3K-Akt signaling and modulating physiological functions, providing a model for future studies analyzing environmental reactive species.

Abstract
CONTEXT MicroRNA-191-5p regulates key cellular processes involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications such as angiogenesis, extracellular matrix deposition, and inflammation. However, no data on circulating microRNA-191-5p in the chronic complications of diabetes are available. OBJECTIVE To assess whether serum levels of microRNA-191-5p were associated with micro- and macrovascular disease in a large cohort of subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) from the EURODIAB Prospective Complication Study. DESIGN AND SETTING Levels of microRNA-191-5p were measured by quantitative PCR in 420 patients with DM1 recruited as part of the cross-sectional analysis of the EURODIAB Prospective Complication Study. Cases (n = 277) were subjects with nephropathy and/or retinopathy and/or cardiovascular disease (CVD). Controls (n = 143) were patients without complications. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the potential independent association of microRNA-191-5p levels with chronic complications of diabetes. RESULTS Levels of microRNA-191-5p were significantly reduced (P < .001) in cases compared with controls even after adjustment for age, sex, and diabetes duration. Logistic regression analysis revealed that microRNA-191-5p was negatively associated with a 58% reduced odds ratio (OR) of chronic diabetes complications, specifically CVD, micro-macroalbuminuria, and retinopathy (OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.23-0.77), independent of age, sex, physical activity, educational levels, diabetes duration, glycated hemoglobin, total insulin dose, hypertension, smoking, total cholesterol, albumin excretion rate, estimated glomerular filtration rate, serum vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and tumor necrosis factor-α. Analyses performed separately for each complication demonstrated a significant independent association with albuminuria (OR, 0.36; 95% CI, (0.18-0.75) and CVD (OR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.16-0.70). CONCLUSIONS In DM1 subjects, microRNA-191-5p is inversely associated with vascular chronic complications of diabetes.

Abstract
Cigarettes contain various chemicals that cause damage to nerve cells. Exposure to cigarette smoke (CS) causes insulin resistance (IR) in nerve cells. However, the mechanisms for a disorder in the cigarette-induced insulin signaling pathway and in neurotoxicity remain unclear. Therefore, we evaluated, by a series of pathology analyses and behavioral tests, the neurotoxic effects of chronic exposure to CS on C57BL/6 mice. Mice exposed to CS with more than 200 mg/m3 total particulate matter (TPM) exhibited memory deficits and cognitive impairment. Pathological staining of paraffin sections of mouse brain tissue revealed that CS-exposed mice had, in the brain, neuronal damage characterized by thinner pyramidal and granular cell layers and fewer neurons. Further, the exposure of SH-SY5Y cells to cigarette smoke extract (CSE) resulted in diminished insulin sensitivity and reduced glucose uptake in a dose-dependent fashion. The PI3K/GSK3 insulin signaling pathway is particularly relevant to neurotoxicity. microRNAs are involved in the PI3K/GSK3β/p-Tau pathway, and we found that cigarette exposure activates miR-153-3p, decreases PI3K regulatory subunits PIK3R1, and induces Tau hyperphosphorylation. Exposure to an miR-153 inhibitor or to a PI3K inhibitor alleviated the reduced insulin sensitivity caused by CS. Therefore, our results indicate that miR-153-3p, via PIK3R1, causes insulin resistance in the brain, and is involved in CS-induced neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Decreased systemic oestrogen levels (i.e., menopause) affect metabolic health. However, the detailed mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Both oestrogens and exercise have been shown to improve metabolic health, which may be partly mediated by circulating microRNA (c-miR) signalling. In recent years, extracellular vesicles (EV) have increased interest in the field of tissue crosstalk. However, in many studies on EV-carried miRs, the co-isolation of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles with EVs has not been considered, potentially affecting the results. Here, we demonstrate that EV and HDL particles have distinct small RNA (sRNA) content, including both host and nonhost sRNAs. Exercise caused an acute increase in relative miR abundancy in EVs, whereas in HDL particles, it caused an increase in transfer RNA-derived sRNA. Furthermore, we demonstrate that oestrogen-based hormonal therapy (HT) allows the acute exercise-induced miR-response to occur in both EV and HDL particles in postmenopausal women, while the response was absent in nonusers.

Cui F, He X. IGF-1 ameliorates streptozotocin-induced pancreatic β cell dysfunction and apoptosis via activating IRS1/PI3K/Akt/FOXO1 pathway. Inflamm Res 2022; 71:669-680. [PMID: 35333936 DOI: 10.1007/s00011-022-01557-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2021] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an endocrine disorder with pancreatic β cell dysfunction and/or reduced insulin sensitivity. IGF-1 is critically involved in pancreatic β cell growth, differentiation, and insulin secretion. Insulin-mediated IRS1/PI3K/Akt/FOXO1 signaling has been proved to be closely associated with pancreatic β cell function, hepatic glucose metabolism, and the development of T2DM. This present work was designed to demonstrate the protective role of IGF-1 against pancreatic β cell dysfunction and to probe into the underlying mechanisms. METHODS Herein, cell viability, cell apoptosis, insulin secretion, oxidative stress, and glycolysis in STZ-treated INS-1 cells were measured, so as to determine the biological function of IGF-1 against pancreatic β cell dysfunction in T2DM. Additionally, whether IGF-1 could activate IRS1/PI3K/Akt/FOXO1 signaling pathway to manipulate the progression of T2DM was also investigated. RESULTS It was discovered that IGF-1 treatment enhanced the viability and suppressed the apoptosis of STZ-treated INS-1 cells. Besides, IGF-1 treatment augmented insulin secretion of INS-1 cells in response to STZ. Moreover, IGF-1 exerted protective role against oxidative damage and displayed inhibitory effect on glycolysis in STZ-treated INS-1 cells. Mechanistically, IGF-1 treatment markedly boosted the activation of IRS1/PI3K/Akt/FOXO1 pathway. Furthermore, treatment with AG1024 (an inhibitor of IGF-1R) partially abolished the actions of IGF-1 on cell viability, cell apoptosis, insulin secretion, oxidative stress, and glycolysis in STZ-treated INS-1 cells. CONCLUSION To conclude, IGF-1 could improve the viability and inhibit the apoptosis of STZ-treated pancreatic β cells, induce insulin secretion, alleviate oxidative damage, as well as arrest glycolysis by activating IRS1/PI3K/Akt/FOXO1 pathway.

Abstract
Exercise has been recognized as an effective preventive and therapeutic approach for numerous diseases. This review addresses the potential role of circulating extracellular vesicles (EV) cargo that is modulated by physical activity. EV transport and deliver beneficial molecules to adjacent and distant tissues as a whole-body phenomenon, resulting in a healthier global status. Several candidate EV molecules, especially miRNAs, are summarized here as mediators of the beneficial effects of exercise, using different modalities, frequencies, volumes, and intensities. The following are among the candidate miRNAs: miR-21, miR-146, miR-486, miR-148a-3p, miR-223-3p, miR-142-3p, and miR-191a-5p. We highlight the relationship between EV cargo modifications, their targets and pathway interactions, in clinical outcomes, for example, on cardiovascular or immune diseases. This review brings an innovative perspective providing evidence for an intricate biological basis of the relationship between EV cargo and exercise-induced benefits on several diseases. Moreover, specific changes on circulating EV content might potentially be used as biomarkers of exercise efficacy.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by insulin resistance (IR). SHP2 has previously been identified as a potential target to reduce IR in diabetes. Here, we examined the effects of SHP2 on glucose consumption (GC), IR level and the expression of insulin receptor substrate (IRS), AKT and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 proteins in a cellular and animal model of diabetes. IR was induced in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells, and SHP2 was up-regulated or down-regulated in cells. Diabetic rats were treated with SHP2 inhibitor. GC of cells, and the weight, total cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, homeostasis model assessment-IR index and insulin sensitivity (ISI) of the rats were analyzed. The levels of SHP2 and the activation of IRS-2, AKT and ERK1/2 in cells and rats were measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) or western blot. GC was reduced, but expression of SHP2 was enhanced in IR HCC cells. Phosphorylation of IRS-2 and AKT in IR HCC cells and diabetic rats was decreased, whereas phosphorylation of ERK1/2 was enhanced. In both the cell and animal models, SHP2 knockdown enhanced GC, ameliorated IR, activated IRS-2 and AKT, and inhibited ERK1/2 phosphorylation, in contrast with the effects of SHP2 overexpression. SHP2 knockdown may enhance GC and ameliorate IR through phosphorylation of IRS-2 via regulating AKT and ERK1/2 in liver.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic disease caused by pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. Exposure to smoke is a risk factor for diabetes; however, its mechanisms are unclear. In an epidemiological study, we determined the relationship between cigarette smoking and β-cell function. T2D patients had a history of heavier smoking than people without T2D, and heavy smokers had more abnormal glucose metabolism. For various smoking populations, there was a dose-effect relationship between decreases of homeostatic model assessment (HOMA)-β levels or the increases of HOMA-insulin resistance (IR) levels and amount of smoking (pack-years), which indicated that smoking induced β-cell dysfunction. For MIN6 cells, cigarette smoke extract (CSE) decreased insulin secretion and content; enhanced apoptosis, as illustrated by decreases of BCL-2 levels, increases of BAX and cleaved caspase-3 levels, and an increased apoptotic index; and activated the p38 MAPK pathway. For MIN6 cells, inhibition of p-p38 MAPK by SB203580 prevented enhanced apoptosis and the dysfunction of insulin secretion induced by CSE. In sum, activation of p38 MAPK is involved in the apoptosis of pancreatic β-cells induced by cigarette smoking, which is a possible mechanism for induction of T2D by cigarette smoke.
