New insights in the molecular regulation of the NADPH oxidase 2 activity: Negative modulation by Poldip2. Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 199:113-125. [PMID: 36828293 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.02.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023]
Abstract
Poldip2 was shown to be involved in oxidative signaling to ensure certain biological functions. It was proposed that, in VSMC, by interaction with the Nox4-associated membrane protein p22phox, Poldip2 stimulates the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. In vitro, with fractionated membranes from HEK393 cells over-expressing Nox4, we confirmed the up-regulation of NADPH oxidase 4 activity by the recombinant and purified Poldip2. Besides Nox4, the Nox1, Nox2, or Nox3 isoforms are also established partners of the p22phox protein raising the question of their regulation by Poldip2 and of the effect in cells expressing simultaneously different Nox isoforms. In this study, we have addressed this issue by investigating the potential regulatory role of Poldip2 on NADPH oxidase 2, present in phagocyte cells. Unexpectedly, the effect of Poldip2 on phagocyte NADPH oxidase 2 was opposite to that observed on NADPH oxidase 4. Using membranes from circulating resting neutrophils, the ROS production rate of NADPH oxidase 2 was down-regulated by Poldip2 (2.5-fold). The down-regulation effect could not be correlated to the interaction of Poldip2 with p22phox but rather, to the interaction of Poldip2 with the p47phox protein, one of the regulatory proteins of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase. Our results show that the interaction of Poldip2 with p47phox constitutes a novel regulatory mechanism that can negatively modulate the activity of NADPH oxidase 2 by trapping the so-called "adaptor" subunit of the complex. Poldip2 could act as a tunable switch capable of specifically regulating the activities of NADPH oxidases. This selective regulatory role of Poldip2, positive for Nox4 or negative for Nox2 could orchestrate the level and the type of ROS generated by Nox enzymes in the cells.

Poldip2/Nox4 Mediates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Human Lung Epithelial Cells. Mediators Inflamm 2022; 2022:6666022. [PMID: 35140544 PMCID: PMC8818432 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6666022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2020] [Revised: 11/10/2021] [Accepted: 12/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
NADPH oxidase 4 (Nox4) is an important source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and its expression is increased in lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) stimulated lung epithelial cells. Polymerase δ-interacting protein 2 (Poldip2) has been proved to bind Nox4 and participates in oxidative stress and inflammation. However, the role of Poldip2/Nox4 in LPS-induced oxidative stress and inflammation in lung epithelial cells remains unclear. Cell viability was measured via MTT assays. The expression of Poldip2, Nox4, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), AKT, and p-AKT was detected by Western blotting and/or immunofluorescence. Poldip2 and Nox4 interaction was analyzed via coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay. NADPH enzymatic activity and production of ROS, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) were assessed simultaneously. The small interfering RNA (siRNA) or plasmid targeting Nox4 was used to downregulate or upregulate Nox4, and the lentiviral vector encoding Poldip2 was used to downregulate or upregulate Poldip2. The present study demonstrated that LPS stimulation significantly increased the protein levels of Poldip2 and Nox4 and proved that Poldip2 interacted with Nox4 proved by Co-IP. Importantly, Poldip2 acted as an upstream regulator of Nox4. The increased expression of Nox4 and COX-2; NADPH enzymatic activity; production of ROS, PGE2, TNF-α, and IL-1β; and decreased HO-1 expression were significantly suppressed by lentiviral Poldip2 shRNA downregulation but were increased by lentiviral upregulation of Poldip2. Furthermore, inhibiting of PI3K-AKT signaling notably attenuated LPS-induced Poldip2/Nox4 activation. Our study demonstrated that Poldip2 mediates LPS-induced oxidative stress and inflammation via interaction with Nox4 and was regulated by the PI3K-AKT signaling. Targeting Poldip2 could be a beneficial therapeutic strategy for the treatment of ALI.

Abstract
POLDIP2 is a multifunctional protein whose roles are only partially understood. Our laboratory previously reported physiological studies performed using a mouse gene trap model, which suffered from three limitations: perinatal lethality in homozygotes, constitutive Poldip2 inactivation and inadvertent downregulation of the adjacent Tmem199 gene. To overcome these limitations, we developed a new conditional floxed Poldip2 model. The first part of the present study shows that our initial floxed mice were affected by an unexpected mutation, which was not readily detected by Southern blotting and traditional PCR. It consisted of a 305 kb duplication around Poldip2 with retention of the wild type allele and could be traced back to the original targeted ES cell clone. We offer simple suggestions to rapidly detect similar accidents, which may affect genome editing using both traditional and CRISPR-based methods. In the second part of the present study, correctly targeted floxed Poldip2 mice were generated and used to produce a new constitutive knockout line by crossing with a Cre deleter. In contrast to the gene trap model, many homozygous knockout mice were viable, in spite of having no POLDIP2 expression. To further characterize the effects of Poldip2 ablation in the vasculature, RNA-seq and RT-qPCR experiments were performed in constitutive knockout arteries. Results show that POLDIP2 inactivation affects multiple cellular processes and provide new opportunities for future in-depth study of its functions.

Polymerase delta-interacting protein 38 (PDIP38) modulates the stability and activity of the mitochondrial AAA+ protease CLPXP. Commun Biol 2020; 3:646.

Abstract
Over a decade ago Polymerase δ interacting protein of 38 kDa (PDIP38) was proposed to play a role in DNA repair. Since this time, both the physiological function and subcellular location of PDIP38 has remained ambiguous and our present understanding of PDIP38 function has been hampered by a lack of detailed biochemical and structural studies. Here we show, that human PDIP38 is directed to the mitochondrion in a membrane potential dependent manner, where it resides in the matrix compartment, together with its partner protein CLPX. Our structural analysis revealed that PDIP38 is composed of two conserved domains separated by an α/β linker region. The N-terminal (YccV-like) domain of PDIP38 forms an SH3-like β-barrel, which interacts specifically with CLPX, via the adaptor docking loop within the N-terminal Zinc binding domain of CLPX. In contrast, the C-terminal (DUF525) domain forms an immunoglobin-like β-sandwich fold, which contains a highly conserved putative substrate binding pocket. Importantly, PDIP38 modulates the substrate specificity of CLPX and protects CLPX from LONM-mediated degradation, which stabilises the cellular levels of CLPX. Collectively, our findings shed new light on the mechanism and function of mitochondrial PDIP38, demonstrating that PDIP38 is a bona fide adaptor protein for the mitochondrial protease, CLPXP. Strack et al find that Polymerase δ interacting protein 38 (PDIP38) is targeted to the mitochondrial matrix where it colocalises with the mitochondrial AAA + protein CLPXP. PDIP38 modulates the specificity of CLPXP in vitro and alters the stability of CLPX in vitro and in cells. The PDIP38 structure leads the authors to speculate that PDIP38 is a CLPXP adaptor.

Abstract
Polymerase δ-interacting protein 2 (PolDIP2) is involved in the multiple protein-protein interactions and plays roles in many cellular processes including regulation of the nuclear redox environment, organization of the mitotic spindle and chromosome segregation, pre-mRNA processing, mitochondrial morphology and functions, cell migration and cellular adhesion. PolDIP2 is also a binding partner of high-fidelity DNA polymerase delta, PCNA and a number of translesion and repair DNA polymerases. The growing evidence suggests that PolDIP2 is a general regulatory protein in DNA damage response. However PolDIP2 functions in DNA translesion synthesis and repair are not fully understood. In this review, we address the functional interaction of PolDIP2 with human DNA polymerases and discuss the possible functions in DNA damage response.

Abstract
Polymerase-δ-interacting protein 2 (Poldip2) controls a wide variety of cellular functions and vascular pathologies. To mediate these effects, Poldip2 interacts with numerous proteins and generates reactive oxygen species via the enzyme NADPH oxidase 4 (Nox4). We have previously shown that Poldip2 can activate the Rho family GTPase RhoA, another signaling node within the cell. In this study, we aimed to better understand how Poldip2 activates Rho family GTPases and the functions of the involved proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). RhoA is activated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors. Using nucleotide-free RhoA (isolated from bacteria) to pulldown active RhoGEFs, we found that the RhoGEF epithelial cell transforming sequence 2 (Ect2) is activated by Poldip2. Ect2 is a critical RhoGEF for Poldip2-mediated RhoA activation, because siRNA against Ect2 prevented Poldip2-mediated RhoA activity (measured by rhotekin pulldowns). Surprisingly, we were unable to detect a direct interaction between Poldip2 and Ect2, as they did not coimmunoprecipitate. Nox4 is not required for Poldip2-driven Ect2 activation, as Poldip2 overexpression induced Ect2 activation in Nox4 knockout VSMCs similar to wild-type cells. However, antioxidant treatment blocked Poldip2-induced Ect2 activation. This indicates a novel reactive oxygen species-driven mechanism by which Poldip2 regulates Rho family GTPases. Finally, we examined the function of these proteins in VSMCs, using siRNA against Poldip2 or Ect2 and determined that Poldip2 and Ect2 are both essential for vascular smooth muscle cell cytokinesis and proliferation.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in a deadly disease that can be brought on by endotoxins such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS). ARDS is characterized by vascular permeability, a severe inflammatory response, lung leukocyte infiltration, and resultant lung edema. Polymerase δ-interacting protein 2 (Poldip2) is a novel regulator of blood-brain barrier permeability; however, its role in regulating lung permeability and vascular inflammation is unknown. Here, the role of Poldip2 in regulating vascular permeability and inflammation in a mouse model of ARDS was assessed. Heterozygous deletion of Poldip2 was found to reduce LPS-induced mortality within 20 h, lung inflammatory signaling, and leukocyte infiltration. Moreover, reduced Poldip2-suppressed LP-induced vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1 induction, leukocyte recruitment, and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in vitro These data indicate that Poldip2 is an important regulator of the debilitating consequences of ARDS, potentially through the regulation of mitochondrial ROS-induced inflammatory signaling. Consequently, inhibition of Poldip2 may be a viable option for therapeutic discovery moving forward.

Abstract
The main problem in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is metastasis. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is known as the critical signaling in tumor progression, metastasis, and also the drug resistance. In this study, we reported a novel gene Polymerase delta-interacting protein 2 (POLDIP2) was downregulated in NSCLC tissues and first demonstrated that overexpression of POLDIP2 increased the anchorage-independent growth (AIG) and invasiveness of H1299 cells. In addition, we examined that knockdown of POLDIP2 in H1299 and A549 cells reduced tumorigenicity and metastatic capacity in vitro and also in vivo. Moreover, downregulation of the cell proliferation marker cyclin D1 and EMT markers CDH2, Slug, and Twist was showed in H1299 cells by POLDIP2 knockdown, suggesting that the inhibition of malignancy was affected by modulating key genes for tumor growth and invasiveness. Taken together, our study is the first study that demonstrated that POLDIP2 gene was function as an oncogene in NSCLC and implied the oncogenic ability might be through promoting cell proliferation or EMT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polymerase δ-interacting protein 2 (Poldip2) is a multifunctional protein that regulates vascular extracellular matrix composition and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a dynamic system assembled by endothelial cells, basal lamina, and perivascular astrocytes, raising the possibility that Poldip2 may be involved in maintaining its structure. We investigated the role of Poldip2 in the late BBB permeability induced by cerebral ischemia. METHODS Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) was induced in Poldip2+/+ and Poldip2+/- mice. The volume of the ischemic lesion was measured in triphenyltetrazolium chloride-stained sections. BBB breakdown was evaluated by Evans blue dye extravasation. Poldip2 protein expression was evaluated by western blotting. RT-PCR, zymography, and ELISAs were used to measure mRNA levels, activity, and protein levels of cytokines and MMPs. Cultured astrocytes were transfected with Poldip2 siRNA, and mRNA levels of cytokines were evaluated as well as IκBα protein degradation. RESULTS Cerebral ischemia induced the expression of Poldip2. Compared to Poldip2+/+ mice, Poldip2+/- animals exhibited decreased Evans blue dye extravasation and improved survival 24 h following stroke. Poldip2 expression was upregulated in astrocytes exposed to oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) and siRNA-mediated downregulation of Poldip2 abrogated OGD-induced IL-6 and TNF-α expression. In addition, siRNA against Poldip2 inhibited TNF-α-induced IκBα degradation. TNF-α, IL-6, MCP-1, VEGF, and MMP expression induced by cerebral ischemia was abrogated in Poldip2+/- mice. The protective effect of Poldip2 depletion on the increased permeability of the BBB was partially reversed by systemic administration of TNF-α. CONCLUSIONS Poldip2 is upregulated following ischemic stroke and mediates the breakdown of the BBB by increasing cerebral cytokine production and MMP activation. Therefore, Poldip2 appears to be a promising novel target for the development of therapeutic strategies to prevent the development of cerebral edema in the ischemic brain.

Abstract
Aging and cancer are the most important issues to research. The population in the world is growing older, and the incidence of cancer increases with age. There is no doubt about the linkage between aging and cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this association are still unknown. Several lines of evidence suggest that the oxidative stress as a cause and/or consequence of the mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the main drivers of these processes. Increasing ROS levels and products of the oxidative stress, which occur in aging and age-related disorders, were also found in cancer. This review focuses on the similarities between ageing-associated and cancer-associated oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction as their common phenotype.

Abstract
Keshan disease (KD) is a kind of endemic cardiomyopathy which has a high mortality. However, molecular mechanism in the pathogenesis of KD remains poorly understood. Serum samples were collected from 112 KD patients and 112 normal controls. Gene microarray was used to screen differently expressed genes. Genevestigator was applied to forecast co-expression genes of significant gene. iTRAQ proteomics analysis was used to verify significant genes and their co-expression genes. GO, COG, IPA and STRING were applied to undertake function categorization, pathway and network analysis separately. We identified 32 differentially expressed genes; IDH2, FEM1A, SSPB1 and their respective 30 co-expression genes; 68 differential proteins in KD. Significant proteins were categorized into 23 biological processes, 16 molecular functions, 16 cellular components, 15 function classes, 13 KD pathways and 1 network. IDH2, FEM1A, SSBP1, CALR, NDUFS2, IDH3A, GAPDH, TCA Cycle II (Eukaryotic) pathway and NADP repair pathway may play important roles in the pathogenesis of KD.

Abstract
Polymerase δ-interacting protein 2 (Poldip2) is a multifunctional protein originally described as a binding partner of the p50 subunit of DNA polymerase δ and proliferating cell nuclear antigen. In addition to its role in DNA replication and damage repair, Poldip2 has been implicated in mitochondrial function, extracellular matrix regulation, cell cycle progression, focal adhesion turnover, and cell migration. However, Poldip2 functions are incompletely understood. In this review, we discuss recent literature on Poldip2 tissue distribution, subcellular localization, and function. We also address the putative function of Poldip2 in cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative conditions and in renal pathophysiology.

Abstract
Growing evidence has indicated that single-stranded DNA-binding proteins 1 (SSBP1) is involved in tumor initiation and progression. However, effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in SSBP1 gene on gastric cancer (GC) prognosis are still unknown. In present study, two functional SNPs from SSBP1 were selected and genotyped in a large cohorts of 1030 resected GC patients (326 in the training set, 704 in the validation set) to explore the association of SNPs with patients’ survival. The rs6976500 G allele (CG/GG) genotypes were found significantly associated with both worse overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in the training and the independent validation set when compared to C allele genotype, which reaching a more robust statistical significance in the pooled analysis. Furthermore, integration of rs6976500 genotypes and TNM stage significantly improved the prognosis prediction models based on TNM stage alone. In addition, only carriers with at least one G allele of rs6976500 gained significant survival benefit from FOLFOX-based ACT. Mechanistically, SNP rs6976500 G allele genotype could significantly decrease promoter transcriptional activity and markedly reduce expression level of SSBP1 compared with the C allele genotype in GC cells. This was further substantiated by immunohistochemical assay in 70 GC tissue samples. Our study presents the first evidence that SNP rs6976500 G allele genotypes might contribute to GC prognosis by attenuating SSBP1 promoter activity and gene expression, and provides the guidance in refining therapeutic decisions of GC patients. Further exploration on its function is needed to clarify the exact biological mechanism behind.

Abstract
This review focuses on the regulation and modulation of human DNA polymerase δ (Pol δ). The emphasis is on the mechanisms that regulate the activity and properties of Pol δ in DNA repair and replication. The areas covered are the degradation of the p12 subunit of Pol δ, which converts it from a heterotetramer (Pol δ4) to a heterotrimer (Pol δ3), in response to DNA damage and also during the cell cycle. The biochemical mechanisms that lead to degradation of p12 are reviewed, as well as the properties of Pol δ4 and Pol δ3 that provide insights into their functions in DNA replication and repair. The second focus of the review involves the functions of two Pol δ binding proteins, polymerase delta interaction protein 46 (PDIP46) and polymerase delta interaction protein 38 (PDIP38), both of which are multi-functional proteins. PDIP46 is a novel activator of Pol δ4, and the impact of this function is discussed in relation to its potential roles in DNA replication. Several new models for the roles of Pol δ3 and Pol δ4 in leading and lagging strand DNA synthesis that integrate a role for PDIP46 are presented. PDIP38 has multiple cellular localizations including the mitochondria, the spliceosomes and the nucleus. It has been implicated in a number of cellular functions, including the regulation of specialized DNA polymerases, mitosis, the DNA damage response, mouse double minute 2 homolog (Mdm2) alternative splicing and the regulation of the NADPH oxidase 4 (Nox4).

Abstract
Mitochondria preserve very complex and distinctively unique machinery to maintain and express the content of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Similar to chromosomes, mtDNA is packaged into discrete mtDNA-protein complexes referred to as a nucleoid. In addition to its role as a mtDNA shield, over 50 nucleoid-associated proteins play roles in mtDNA maintenance and gene expression through either temporary or permanent association with mtDNA or other nucleoid-associated proteins. The number of mtDNA(s) contained within a single nucleoid is a fundamental question but remains a somewhat controversial issue. Disturbance in nucleoid components and mutations in mtDNA were identified as significant in various diseases, including carcinogenesis. Significant interest in the nucleoid structure and its regulation has been stimulated in relation to mitochondrial diseases, which encompass diseases in multicellular organisms and are associated with accumulation of numerous mutations in mtDNA. In this review, mitochondrial nucleoid structure, nucleoid-associated proteins, and their regulatory roles in mitochondrial metabolism are briefly addressed to provide an overview of the emerging research field involving mitochondrial biology.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is one of the major therapeutic strategies for human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but intrinsic radioresistance of cancer cells makes a further improvement of radiotherapy for NSCLC challenging. Mitochondrial function is frequently dysregulated in cancer cells for adaptation to the changes of tumor microenvironment after exposure to radiation. Therefore, targeting mitochondrial biogenesis and bioenergetics is an attractive strategy to sensitize cancer cells to radiation therapy. In this study, we found that downregulation of single-strand DNA-binding protein 1 (SSBP1) in H1299 cells was associated with inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and increasing radiosensitivity to ionizing radiation. Mechanistically, SSBP1 loss induced mitochondrial dysfunction via decreasing mitochondrial DNA copy number and ATP generation, enhancing the mitochondrial-derived ROS accumulation and downregulating key glycolytic enzymes expression. SSBP1 knockdown increased the radiosensitivity of H1299 cells by inducing increased apoptosis, prolonged G2/M phase arrest and defective homologous recombination repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Our findings identified SSBP1 as a radioresistance-related protein, providing potential novel mitochondrial target for sensitizing NSCLC to radiotherapy.

Abstract
Well-organized mitochondrial functions and dynamics are critical for early embryonic development and are operated via a large number of mitochondria-related genes (MtGs) encoded by both the nuclear and the mitochondrial genome.
However, the mechanisms underlying mitochondrial modifications during the critical window between blastocyst implantation and postimplantation organogenesis are poorly understood. Herein, we performed high-resolution dynamic
profiling of MtGs to acquire a more detailed understanding of mitochondrial modifications during early development. Our data suggest that the resumption of mitochondrial mass growth is not only facilitated by increased
mitochondrial biogenesis and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication, but also by the appropriate balance between mitochondrial fission and fusion. In addition, increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) resulting from
enhanced mitochondrial functions may be the critical inducer for activating the glutathione (GSH)-based stress response system in early embryos. The appropriate balance between the mitochondrial stress response and apoptosis
appears to be significant for cell differentiation and early organogenesis. Furthermore, we found that most MtGs undergo de novo promoter methylation, which may have functional consequences on mitochondrial
functions and dynamics during early development. We also report that mtDNA methylation can be observed as early as soon after implantation. DNMT1, the predominant enzyme for maintaining DNA methylation, localized to the
mitochondria and bound to mtDNA by the implantation stage. Our study provides a new insight into the involvement of mitochondria in early mammalian embryogenesis. We also propose that the epigenetic modifications during early
development are significant for modulating mitochondrial functions and dynamics.

Abstract
Oligomer aggregation of green-to-red photoconvertible fluorescent protein Eos (EosFP) is a natural feature of the wild‑type variant. The aim of the present study was to follow up mitochondrial nucleoid behavior under natural conditions of living cells transfected with mitochondrial single‑strand DNA‑binding protein (mtSSB) conjugated with EosFP. HEPG2 and SH‑SY5Y cells were subjected to lentiviral transfection and subsequently immunostained with anti‑DNA, anti‑transcription factor A, mitochondrial (TFAM) or anti‑translocase of the inner membrane 23 antibodies. Fluorescent microscopy, conventional confocal microscopy, superresolution biplane fluorescence photo-activation localization microscopy and direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy were used for imaging. In the two cell types, apparent couples of equally‑sized mtSSB‑EosFP‑visualized dots were observed. During the time course of the ongoing transfection procedure, however, a small limited number of large aggregates of mtSSB‑EosFP‑tagged protein started to form in the cells, which exhibited a great co‑localization with the noted coupled positions. Antibody staining and 3D immunocytochemistry confirmed that nucleoid components such as TFAM and DNA were co‑localized with these aggregates. Furthermore, the observed reduction of the mtDNA copy number in mtSSB‑EosFP‑transfected cells suggested a possible impairment of nucleoid function. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that coupled nucleoids are synchronized by mtSSB‑EosFP overexpression and visualized through their equal binding capacity to mtSSB‑EosFP‑tagged protein. This observation suggested parallel replication and transcription activity of nucleoid couples native from a parental one. Preserved coupling in late stages of artificial EosFP‑mediated aggregation of tagged proteins suggested a rational manner of mitochondrial branching that may be cell-type specifically dependent on hierarchical nucleoid replication.

Abstract
Polymerase-δ interacting protein 2 (Poldip2) is an understudied protein, originally described as a binding partner of polymerase delta and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Numerous roles for Poldip2 have been proposed, including mitochondrial elongation, DNA replication/repair and ROS production via Nox4. In this study, we have identified a novel role for Poldip2 in regulating the cell cycle. We used a Poldip2 gene-trap mouse and found that homozygous animals die around the time of birth. Poldip2-/- embryos are significantly smaller than wild type or heterozygous embryos. We found that Poldip2-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) exhibit reduced growth as measured by population doubling and growth curves. This effect is not due to apoptosis or senescence; however, Poldip2-/- MEFs have higher levels of the autophagy marker LC3b. Measurement of DNA content by flow cytometry revealed an increase in the percentage of Poldip2-/- cells in the G1 and G2/M phases of the cell cycle, accompanied by a decrease in the percentage of S-phase cells. Increases in p53 S20 and Sirt1 were observed in passage 2 Poldip2-/- MEFs. In passage 4/5 MEFs, Cdk1 and CyclinA2 are downregulated in Poldip2-/- cells, and these changes are reversed by transfection with SV40 large T-antigen, suggesting that Poldip2 may target the E2F pathway. In contrast, p21CIP1 is increased in passage 4/5 Poldip2-/- MEFs and its expression is unaffected by SV40 transfection. Overall, these results reveal that Poldip2 is an essential protein in development, and underline its importance in cell viability and proliferation. Because it affects the cell cycle, Poldip2 is a potential novel target for treating proliferative conditions such as cancer, atherosclerosis and restenosis.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is regulated by local factors that regulate bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts, in addition to hormonal activity. Recent studies have shown that reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as an intracellular signal mediator for osteoclast differentiation. However the role of ROS on osteoblast differentiation is poorly understood. Here, we investigated the impact of ROS on osteoblastic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. Osteogenic induction resulted in notable enhancement of mineralization and expression of osteogenic marker gene alkaline phosphatase, which were accompanied by an increase in ROS production. Additionally, we found that mitochondrial morphology dynamically changed from tubular reticulum to fragmented structures during the differentiation, suggesting that mitochondrial morphological transition is a novel osteoblast differentiation index. The antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine prevented not only ROS production but also mineralization and mitochondrial fragmentation. It is therefore suggested that the ROS-dependent signaling pathways play a role in osteoblast differentiation accompanied by mitochondrial morphological transition.

Abstract
Warburg effect is a hallmark of cancer manifested by continuous prevalence of glycolysis and dysregulation of oxidative metabolism. Glycolysis provides survival advantage to cancer cells. To investigate molecular mechanisms underlying the Warburg effect, we first compared oxygen consumption among hFOB osteoblasts, benign osteosarcoma cells, Saos2, and aggressive osteosarcoma cells, 143B. We demonstrate that, as both proliferation and invasiveness increase in osteosarcoma, cells utilize significantly less oxygen. We proceeded to evaluate mitochondrial morphology and function. Electron microscopy showed that in 143B cells, mitochondria are enlarged and increase in number. Quantitative PCR revealed an increase in mtDNA in 143B cells when compared with hFOB and Saos2 cells. Gene expression studies showed that mitochondrial single-strand DNA-binding protein (mtSSB), a key catalyst of mitochondrial replication, was significantly up-regulated in 143B cells. In addition, increased levels of the mitochondrial respiratory complexes were accompanied by significant reduction of their activities. These changes indicate hyperactive mitochondrial replication in 143B cells. Forced overexpression of mtSSB in Saos2 cells caused an increase in mtDNA and a decrease in oxygen consumption. In contrast, knockdown of mtSSB in 143B cells was accompanied by a decrease in mtDNA, increase in oxygen consumption, and retardation of cell growth in vitro and in vivo. In summary, we have found that mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer cells correlates with abnormally increased mitochondrial replication, which according to our gain- and loss-of-function experiments, may be due to overexpression of mtSSB. Our study provides insight into mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer and may offer potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles and undergo continuous fission and fusion events in physiological situations. It was observed that mitochondrial morphology and number are changed in living cells during cellular differentiation, development, and under pathological conditions including muscle dystrophy, cardiomyopathy, and cancer. Defined sets of proteins are known to mediate mitochondrial fission and fusion and to constitute regulatory components controlling mitochondrial dynamics. In the present study, we first investigated mitochondrial dynamics during the cell cycle progression, and found that mitochondria exist as filamentous network structures throughout the cell cycle progression, changing their morphology, distribution, and abundance. In addition, we found that a mouse homolog of human DNA polymerase delta interacting protein 38, referred to as Mitogenin I, and mitochondrial single-stranded DNA-binding protein (mtSSB), identified as upregulated genes in the heart of mice with juvenile visceral steatosis, play a role in the regulation of mitochondrial morphology.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinase subunit (CKS) proteins interact with cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) with high affinity. Mammalian CKS1 and CKS2 bind CDK1 and CDK2 and partake in the control of cell cycle progression. We identified CKS-interacting proteins by affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry in the human lymphocytic cell line Ramos. Apart from known interactors, such as CDKs, we identified a novel CDK-dependent interaction between CKS proteins and the mitochondrial single-stranded DNA-binding protein (mtSSB). mtSSB bound both CKS1 and CKS2 and underwent CDK-dependent phosphorylation. mtSSB is known to participate in replication of mitochondrial DNA. We demonstrated that mitochondrial morphology and DNA integrity were compromised in cells depleted of both CKS proteins or that had inhibited CDK activity. These features are consistent with the hypothesis of CKS-dependent regulation of mtSSB function and support a direct role of cell cycle proteins in controlling mitochondrial DNA replication.

Abstract
Mitochondrial fusion and fission processes play a role in a variety of cell functions, including energy metabolism, cell differentiation and programmed cell death. Still, it is not clear how these processes contribute to the cell functions. Here, we investigated the role of mitochondrial remodelling on lipid metabolism in adipocytes. In 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes, the morphology of mitochondria is organized as a continuous reticulum. Upon differentiation of adipocytes manifested by cellular triacylglycerol (TG) accumulation, mitochondrial morphology altered from filamentous to fragmented and/or punctate structures. When the mitochondrial fusion was induced in adipocytes by silencing of mitochondrial fission proteins including Fis1 and Drp1, the cellular TG content was decreased. In contrast, the silencing of mitochondrial fusion proteins including mitofusin 2 and Opa1 increased the cellular TG content followed by fragmentation of mitochondria. It also appears that polyphenolic phytochemicals, negative regulators of lipid accumulation, have mitochondrial fusion activity and that there is a good correlation between mitochondrial fusion activity and the cellular TG accumulation-reducing activity of the phytochemicals. These results suggest that cellular TG accumulation is regulated, at least in part, via mitochondrial fusion and fission processes.

Abstract
RATIONALE NADPH oxidases (Noxes) regulate vascular physiology and contribute to the pathogenesis of vascular disease. In vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), the interactions of individual Nox homologs with regulatory proteins are poorly defined. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to identify novel NADPH oxidase regulatory proteins. METHODS AND RESULTS Using a yeast 2-hybrid screen, we identified a novel p22phox binding partner, Poldip2, and demonstrated that it associates with p22phox, NADPH oxidase (Nox)1, and Nox4 and colocalizes with p22phox at sites of Nox4 localization. Poldip2 increases Nox4 enzymatic activity by 3-fold and positively regulates basal reactive oxygen species production in VSMCs (O2(.-): 86.3+/-15.6% increase; H2O2: 40.7+/-4.5% increase). Overexpression of Poldip2 activates Rho (180.2+/-24.8% increase), strengthens focal adhesions, and increases stress fiber formation. These phenotypic changes are blocked by dominant negative Rho. In contrast, depletion of either Poldip2 or Nox4 results in a loss of these structures, which is rescued by adding back active Rho. Cell migration, which requires dynamic cytoskeletal remodeling, is impaired by either excess (70.1+/-14.7% decrease) or insufficient Poldip2 (63.5+/-5.9% decrease). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that Poldip2 associates with p22phox to activate Nox4, leading to regulation of focal adhesion turnover and VSMC migration, thus linking reactive oxygen species production and cytoskeletal remodeling. Poldip2 may be a novel therapeutic target for vascular pathologies with a significant VSMC migratory component, such as restenosis and atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Mitochondria are key organelles in eukaryotic cells that not only generate adenosine triphosphate but also perform such critical functions as hosting essential biosynthetic pathways, calcium buffering, and apoptotic signaling. In vivo, mitochondria form dynamic networks that undergo frequent morphologic changes through fission and fusion. In neurons, the imbalance of mitochondrial fission/fusion can influence neuronal physiology, such as synaptic transmission and plasticity, and affect neuronal survival. Core components of the mitochondrial fission/fusion machinery have been identified through genetic studies in model organisms. Mutations in some of these genes in humans have been linked to rare neuro-degenerative diseases such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth subtype 2A and autosomal dominant optic atrophy. Recent studies also have implicated aberrant mitochondrial fission/fusion in the pathogenesis of more common neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease. These studies establish mitochondrial dynamics as a new paradigm for neurodegenerative disease research. Compounds that modulate mitochondrial fission/fusion could have therapeutic value in disease intervention.

Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) occurs in cells in nucleoids containing several copies of the genome. Previous studies have identified proteins associated with these large DNA structures when they are biochemically purified by sedimentation and immunoaffinity chromatography. In this study, formaldehyde cross-linking was performed to determine which nucleoid proteins are in close contact with the mtDNA. A set of core nucleoid proteins is found in both native and cross-linked nucleoids, including 13 proteins with known roles in mtDNA transactions. Several other metabolic proteins and chaperones identified in native nucleoids, including ATAD3, were not observed to cross-link to mtDNA. Additional immunofluorescence and protease susceptibility studies showed that an N-terminal domain of ATAD3 previously proposed to bind to the mtDNA D-loop is directed away from the mitochondrial matrix, so it is unlikely to interact with mtDNA in vivo. These results are discussed in relation to a model for a layered structure of mtDNA nucleoids in which replication and transcription occur in the central core, whereas translation and complex assembly may occur in the peripheral region.

Abstract
The homophilic cell-cell adhesion receptor CEACAM1 (carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1, CD66a) acts as a regulator of contact-dependent cell survival, differentiation, and growth. It is involved in the control of proliferation in hematopoietic and epithelial cells and can act as a tumor suppressor. In this study, we identify DNA polymerase delta-interacting protein 38 (PDIP38) as a novel binding partner for CEACAM1-L and CEACAM1-S. We show that PDIP38 can occur in the nucleus, in the cytoplasm and at the plasma membrane in NBT-II, IEC18, RBE, and HeLa cells and that the distribution in NBT-II cells is influenced by the confluency of the cells. We also demonstrate that the interaction of CEACAM1 and PDIP38 is of functional importance in NBT-II cells, which co-express the long and the short CEACAM1 isoform. In subconfluent, proliferating NBT-II cells, perturbation of CEACAM1 by antibody clustering induces increased binding to PDIP38 and results in rapid recruitment of PDIP38 to the plasma membrane. The same treatment of confluent, quiescent NBT-II cells leads to a different response, i.e. translocation of PDIP38 to the nucleus. Together, our data show that PDIP38 can shuttle between the cytoplasmic and the nuclear compartments and that its subcellular localization is regulated by CEACAM1, implicating that PDIP38 may constitute a novel downstream target of CEACAM1 signaling.

Abstract
Here we show that the cell-surface expression of the alpha subunit of H(+)-ATP synthase is markedly increased during adipocyte differentiation. Treatment of differentiated adipocytes with small molecule inhibitors of H(+)-ATP synthase or antibodies against alpha and beta subunits of H(+)-ATP synthase leads to a decrease in cytosolic lipid droplet accumulation. Apolipoprotein A-I, which has been shown to bind to the ectopic beta-chain of H(+)-ATP synthase and inhibit the activity of cell-surface H(+)-ATP synthase, also was found to inhibit cytosolic lipid accumulation. These results suggest that the cell-surface H(+)-ATP synthase has a previously unsuspected role in lipid metabolism in adipocytes.
