Abstract
The membrane peroxisomal proteins PEX11, play a crucial role in peroxisome proliferation by regulating elongation, membrane constriction, and fission of pre-existing peroxisomes. In this study, we evaluated the function of PEX11B gene in neural differentiation of human embryonic stem cell (hESC) by inducing shRNAi-mediated knockdown of PEX11B expression. Our results demonstrate that loss of PEX11B expression led to a significant decrease in the expression of peroxisomal-related genes including ACOX1, PMP70, PEX1, and PEX7, as well as neural tube-like structures and neuronal markers. Inhibition of SIRT1 using pharmacological agents counteracted the effects of PEX11B knockdown, resulting in a relative increase in PEX11B expression and an increase in differentiated neural tube-like structures. However, the neuroprotective effects of SIRT1 were eliminated by PPAR inhibition, indicating that PPARɣ may mediate the interaction between PEX11B and SIRT1. Our findings suggest that both SIRT1 and PPARɣ have neuroprotective effects, and also this study provides the first indication for a potential interaction between PEX11B, SIRT1, and PPARɣ during hESC neural differentiation.

J Proteomics 2024; 298:105144. [PMID: 38431085 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2024.105144] [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: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
Effective therapies of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are lacking due to the unclear molecular pathogenesis. Previous single omics-studies have described potential molecular regulation mechanism of CKD only at the level of transcription or translation. Therefore, this study generated an integrated transcriptomic and proteomic profile to provide deep insights into the continuous transcription-translation process during CKD. The comprehensive datasets identified 14,948 transcripts and 6423 proteins, 233 up-regulated and 364 down-regulated common differentially expressed genes of transcriptome and proteome were selected to further combined bioinformatics analysis. The obtained results revealed reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism and antioxidant system due to imbalance of mitochondria and peroxisomes were significantly repressed in CKD. Overall, this study presents a valuable multi-omics analysis that sheds light on the molecular mechanisms underlying CKD. SIGNIFICANCE: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive and irreversible condition that results in abnormal kidney function and structure, and is ranked 18th among the leading causes of death globally, leading to a significant societal burden. Hence, there is an urgent need for research to detect new, sensitive, and specific biomarkers. Omics-based studies offer great potential to identify underlying disease mechanisms, aid in clinical diagnosis, and develop novel treatment strategies for CKD. Previous studies have mainly focused on the regulation of gene expression or protein synthesis in CKD, thereby compelling us to conduct a meticulous analysis of transcriptomic and proteomic data from the UUO mouse model. Here, we have performed a unified analysis of CKD model by integrating transcriptomes and protein suites for the first time. Our study contributes to a deeper understanding of the pathogenesis of CKD and provides a basis for subsequent disease management and drug development.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide is widely used to remedy bacterial and parasitic infections, but its excessive use will cause severe damage to aquatic animals. Moreover, there is no safe, efficient and low-cost method to degrade residual hydrogen peroxide in water. Here we developed a hydrogen peroxide removal mechanism by which autoinducer-2 (AI-2), a quorum sensing signal molecule that can promote the hydrogen peroxide degradation by Gram-positive bacteria. Here, we investigated the promotion effect of AI-2 on hydrogen peroxide degradation by Deinococcus sp. Y35 and the response of the antioxidant system. We further sought to understand the key mechanism underlying the promotion effect of AI-2 on hydrogen peroxide degradation is that, AI-2 contributed to the resistance of strain Y35 to oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide, and altered membrane permeability of strain Y35 that allowed more hydrogen peroxide to enter bacterial cells and be degraded. Additionally, AI-2 can also encourage multiple Gram-positive bacteria to degrade hydrogen peroxide. Accordingly, our study serves as a reference for the regulation mechanism of the signal molecule AI-2 and provides the development of new strategies for hydrogen peroxide degradation.

Abstract
Adult fireflies exhibit unique flashing courtship signals, emitted by specialized light organs, which develop mostly independently from larval light organs during the pupal stage. The mechanisms of adult light organ development have not been thoroughly studied until now. Here we show that key homeobox transcription factors AlABD-B and AlUNC-4 regulate the development of adult light organs and bioluminescence in the firefly Aquatica leii. Interference with the expression of AlAbd-B and AlUnc-4 genes results in undeveloped or non-luminescent adult light organs. AlABD-B regulates AlUnc-4, and they interact with each other. AlABD-B and AlUNC-4 activate the expression of the luciferase gene AlLuc1 and some peroxins. Four peroxins are involved in the import of AlLUC1 into peroxisomes. Our study provides key insights into the development of adult light organs and flash signal control in fireflies.

The solute carrier SLC25A17 sustains peroxisomal redox homeostasis in diverse mammalian cell lines. Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 212:241-254.

Abstract
Despite the crucial role of peroxisomes in cellular redox maintenance, little is known about how these organelles transport redox metabolites across their membrane. In this study, we sought to assess potential associations between the cellular redox landscape and the human peroxisomal solute carrier SLC25A17, also known as PMP34. This carrier has been reported to function as a counter-exchanger of adenine-containing cofactors such as coenzyme A (CoA), dephospho-CoA, flavin adenine dinucleotide, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), adenosine 3',5'-diphosphate, flavin mononucleotide, and adenosine monophosphate. We found that inactivation of SLC25A17 resulted in a shift toward a more reductive state in the glutathione redox couple (GSSG/GSH) across HEK-293 cells, HeLa cells, and SV40-transformed mouse embryonic fibroblasts, with variable impact on the NADPH levels and the NAD+/NADH redox couple. This phenotype could be rescued by the expression of Candida boidinii Pmp47, a putative SLC25A17 orthologue reported to be essential for the metabolism of medium-chain fatty acids in yeast peroxisomes. In addition, we provide evidence that the alterations in the redox state are not caused by changes in peroxisomal antioxidant enzyme expression, catalase activity, H2O2 membrane permeability, or mitochondrial fitness. Furthermore, treating control and ΔSLC25A17 cells with dehydroepiandrosterone, a commonly used glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase inhibitor affecting NADPH regeneration, revealed a kinetic disconnection between the peroxisomal and cytosolic glutathione pools. Additionally, these experiments underscored the impact of SLC25A17 loss on peroxisomal NADPH metabolism. The relevance of these findings is discussed in the context of the still ambiguous substrate specificity of SLC25A17 and the recent observation that the mammalian peroxisomal membrane is readily permeable to both GSH and GSSG.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are organelles involved in many metabolic processes including lipid metabolism, reactive oxygen species (ROS) turnover, and antimicrobial immune responses. However, the cellular mechanisms by which peroxisomes contribute to bacterial elimination in macrophages remain elusive. Here, we investigated peroxisome function in iPSC-derived human macrophages (iPSDM) during infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). We discovered that Mtb-triggered peroxisome biogenesis requires the ESX-1 type 7 secretion system, critical for cytosolic access. iPSDM lacking peroxisomes were permissive to Mtb wild-type (WT) replication but were able to restrict an Mtb mutant missing functional ESX-1, suggesting a role for peroxisomes in the control of cytosolic but not phagosomal Mtb. Using genetically encoded localization-dependent ROS probes, we found peroxisomes increased ROS levels during Mtb WT infection. Thus, human macrophages respond to the infection by increasing peroxisomes that generate ROS primarily to restrict cytosolic Mtb. Our data uncover a peroxisome-controlled, ROS-mediated mechanism that contributes to the restriction of cytosolic bacteria.

Abstract
Despite intensive research on peroxisome biochemistry, the role of glutathione in peroxisomal redox homeostasis has remained a matter of speculation for many years, and only recently has this issue started to be experimentally addressed. Here, we summarize and compare data from several organisms on the peroxisome-glutathione topic. It is clear from this comparison that the repertoire of glutathione-utilizing enzymes in peroxisomes of different organisms varies widely. In addition, the available data suggest that the kinetic connectivity between the cytosolic and peroxisomal pools of glutathione may also be different in different organisms, with some possessing a peroxisomal membrane that is promptly permeable to glutathione whereas in others this may not be the case. However, regardless of the differences, the picture that emerges from all these data is that glutathione is a crucial component of the antioxidative system that operates inside peroxisomes in all organisms.

Abstract
Prohexadione-calcium (Pro-Ca) has been proved to play an important role in releasing abiotic stress in plants. However, there is still a lack of research on the mechanism of Pro-Ca alleviating salt stress in rice. To explore the protective effects of Pro-Ca on rice seedlings under salt stress, we investigated the effect of exogenous Pro-Ca on rice seedling under salt stress by conducting the following three treatment experiments: CK (control), S (50 mmol·L-1 NaCl saline solution) and S + Pro-Ca (50 mmol·L-1 NaCl saline solution + 100 mg·L-1 Pro-Ca). The results indicated that Pro-Ca modulated the expression of antioxidant enzyme-related genes (such as SOD2, PXMP2, MPV17, E1.11.1.7). Spraying Pro-Ca under salt stress significantly increased in ascorbate peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and peroxidase activity by 84.2%, 75.2%, and 3.5% as compared to the salt treatment, as demonstrated by an example of a 24-hour treatment. Malondialdehyde level in Pro-Ca was also dramatically decreased by 5.8%. Moreover, spraying Pro-Ca under salt stress regulated the expression of photosynthesis genes (such as PsbS, PsbD) and chlorophyll metabolism genes (heml, PPD). Compared to salt stress treatment, spraying Pro-Ca under salt stress significantly increased in net photosynthetic rate by 167.2%. In addition, when rice shoots were sprayed with Pro-Ca under salt stress, the Na+ concentration was considerably reduced by 17.1% compared to salt treatment. In conclusion, Pro-Ca regulates antioxidant mechanisms and photosynthesis to aid in the growth of rice seedlings under salt stress.

Abstract
Peroxisomes serve as important centers for cellular redox metabolism and communication. However, fundamental gaps remain in our understanding of how the peroxisomal redox equilibrium is maintained. In particular, very little is known about the function of the nonenzymatic antioxidant glutathione in the peroxisome interior and how the glutathione antioxidant system balances with peroxisomal protein thiols. So far, only one human peroxisomal glutathione-consuming enzyme has been identified: glutathione S-transferase 1 kappa (GSTK1). To study the role of this enzyme in peroxisomal glutathione regulation and function, a GSTK1-deficient HEK-293 cell line was generated and fluorescent redox sensors were used to monitor the intraperoxisomal GSSG/GSH and NAD+/NADH redox couples and NADPH levels. We provide evidence that ablation of GSTK1 does not change the basal intraperoxisomal redox state but significantly extends the recovery period of the peroxisomal glutathione redox sensor po-roGFP2 upon treatment of the cells with thiol-specific oxidants. Given that this delay (i) can be rescued by reintroduction of GSTK1, but not its S16A active site mutant, and (ii) is not observed with a glutaredoxin-tagged version of po-roGFP2, our findings demonstrate that GSTK1 contains GSH-dependent disulfide bond oxidoreductase activity.

Abstract
Plant peroxisomes are highly dynamic organelles with regard to metabolic pathways, number and morphology and participate in different metabolic processes and cell responses to their environment. Peroxisomes from animal and plant cells house a complex system of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production associated to different metabolic pathways which are under control of an important set of enzymatic and non enzymatic antioxidative defenses. Nitric oxide (NO) and its derivate reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are also produced in these organelles. Peroxisomes can regulate ROS and NO/RNS levels to allow their role as signalling molecules. The metabolism of other reactive species such as carbonyl reactive species (CRS) and sulfur reactive species (SRS) in peroxisomes and their relationship with ROS and NO have not been explored in depth. In this review, we define a peroxisomal reactive species interactome (PRSI), including all reactive species ROS, RNS, CRS and SRS, their interaction and effect on target molecules contributing to the dynamic redox/ROS homeostasis and plasticity of peroxisomes, enabling fine-tuned regulation of signalling networks associated with peroxisome-dependent H2O2. Particular attention will be paid to update the information available on H2O2-dependent peroxisomal retrograde signalling and to discuss a specific peroxisomal footprint.

Abstract
Calcium is a central signal transduction element in biology. Peroxisomes are essential cellular organelles, yet calcium handling in peroxisomes has been contentious. Recent advances show that peroxisomes are part of calcium homeostasis in cardiac myocytes and therefore may contribute to or even shape their calcium-dependent functionality. However, the mechanisms of calcium movement between peroxisomes and other cellular sites and their mediators remain elusive. Here, we review calcium handling in peroxisomes in concert with other organelles and summarize the most recent knowledge on peroxisomal involvement in calcium dynamics with a focus on mammalian cells.

Fission Impossible (?)-New Insights into Disorders of Peroxisome Dynamics. Cells 2022; 11:cells11121922.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are highly dynamic and responsive organelles, which can adjust their morphology, number, intracellular position, and metabolic functions according to cellular needs. Peroxisome multiplication in mammalian cells involves the concerted action of the membrane-shaping protein PEX11β and division proteins, such as the membrane adaptors FIS1 and MFF, which recruit the fission GTPase DRP1 to the peroxisomal membrane. The latter proteins are also involved in mitochondrial division. Patients with loss of DRP1, MFF or PEX11β function have been identified, showing abnormalities in peroxisomal (and, for the shared proteins, mitochondrial) dynamics as well as developmental and neurological defects, whereas the metabolic functions of the organelles are often unaffected. Here, we provide a timely update on peroxisomal membrane dynamics with a particular focus on peroxisome formation by membrane growth and division. We address the function of PEX11β in these processes, as well as the role of peroxisome–ER contacts in lipid transfer for peroxisomal membrane expansion. Furthermore, we summarize the clinical phenotypes and pathophysiology of patients with defects in the key division proteins DRP1, MFF, and PEX11β as well as in the peroxisome–ER tether ACBD5. Potential therapeutic strategies for these rare disorders with limited treatment options are discussed.

Peroxisome-Derived Hydrogen Peroxide Modulates the Sulfenylation Profiles of Key Redox Signaling Proteins in Flp-In T-REx 293 Cells. Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 10:888873.

Abstract
The involvement of peroxisomes in cellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) metabolism has been a central theme since their first biochemical characterization by Christian de Duve in 1965. While the role of H2O2 substantially changed from an exclusively toxic molecule to a signaling messenger, the regulatory role of peroxisomes in these signaling events is still largely underappreciated. This is mainly because the number of known protein targets of peroxisome-derived H2O2 is rather limited and testing of specific targets is predominantly based on knowledge previously gathered in related fields of research. To gain a broader and more systematic insight into the role of peroxisomes in redox signaling, new approaches are urgently needed. In this study, we have combined a previously developed Flp-In T-REx 293 cell system in which peroxisomal H2O2 production can be modulated with a yeast AP-1-like-based sulfenome mining strategy to inventory protein thiol targets of peroxisome-derived H2O2 in different subcellular compartments. By using this approach, we identified more than 400 targets of peroxisome-derived H2O2 in peroxisomes, the cytosol, and mitochondria. We also observed that the sulfenylation kinetics profiles of key targets belonging to different protein families (e.g., peroxiredoxins, annexins, and tubulins) can vary considerably. In addition, we obtained compelling but indirect evidence that peroxisome-derived H2O2 may oxidize at least some of its targets (e.g., transcription factors) through a redox relay mechanism. In conclusion, given that sulfenic acids function as key intermediates in H2O2 signaling, the findings presented in this study provide valuable insight into how peroxisomes may be integrated into the cellular H2O2 signaling network.

Abstract
Lignin is an important factor affecting agricultural traits. The mechanism of lignin metabolism in maize (Zea mays) mesocotyl elongation was investigated during seed germination. Maize seeds were treated with 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) and brassinazole stimulation under 3 and 20 cm deep-seeding stress. Mesocotyl transcriptome sequencing together with targeted metabolomics analysis and physiological measurements were employed in two contrasting genotypes. Our results revealed differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were significantly enriched in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, plant hormone signal transduction, flavonoid biosynthesis, and alpha-linolenic acid metabolism. There were 153 DEGs for lignin biosynthesis pathway, 70 DEGs for peroxisome pathway, and 325 differentially expressed transcription factors (TFs) of MYB, NAC, WRKY, and LIM were identified in all comparisons, and highly interconnected network maps were generated among multiple TFs (MYB and WRKY) and DEGs for lignin biosynthesis and peroxisome biogenesis. This caused p-coumaraldehyde, p-coumaryl alcohol, and sinapaldehyde down-accumulation,
however, caffeyl aldehyde and caffeyl alcohol up-accumulation. The sum/ratios of H-, S-, and G-lignin monomers was also altered, which decreased total lignin formation and accumulation, resulting in cell wall rigidity decreasing. As a result, a significant elongation of maize mesocotyl was detected under deep-seeding stress and EBR signaling. These findings provide information on the molecular mechanisms controlling maize seedling emergence under deep-seeding stress and will aid in the breeding of deep-seeding maize cultivars.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ginseng rusty root symptoms (GRS) is one of the primary diseases of ginseng. This disease leads to a severe decline in the quality of ginseng. It has been shown that the occurrence of GRS is associated with soil environmental degradation, which may involve changes in soil microbiology and physicochemical properties. RESULTS In this study, GRS and healthy ginseng (HG) samples were used as experimental materials for comparative analysis of transcriptome and metabolome. Compared with those in HG samples, 949 metabolites and 9451 genes were significantly changed at the metabolic and transcriptional levels in diseased samples. The diseased tissues' metabolic patterns changed, and the accumulation of various organic acids, alkaloids, alcohols and phenols in diseased tissues increased significantly. There were significant differences in the expression of genes involved in plant hormone signal transduction, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, the peroxidase pathway, and the plant-pathogen interaction pathway. CONCLUSION The current study involved a comparative metabolome and transcriptome analysis of GRS and HG samples. Based on the findings at the transcriptional and metabolic levels, a mechanism model of the ginseng response to GRS was established. Our results provide new insights into ginseng's response to GRS, which will reveal the potential molecular mechanisms of this disease in ginseng.

Abstract
Peroxiporins are distinct aquaporins (AQP) which, beside water, also facilitate the bidirectional transport of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) across cellular membranes. H2O2 serves as the major reactive oxygen species that mediates essential cell signaling events. In pancreatic β-cells, H2O2 has been associated with the regulation of cell growth but in excess it leads to failure of insulin secretion, making it important for diabetes mellitus (DM) pathogenesis. In the present study, the role of aquaporin-8 (AQP8) as a peroxiporin was investigated in RINm5F cells. The role of AQP8 was studied in an insulin-producing cell model, on the basis of stable AQP8 overexpression (AQP8↑) and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated AQP8 knockdown (KD). A complete AQP8 knock-out was found to result in cell death, however we demonstrate that mild lentiviral re-expression through a Tet-On-regulated genetically modified AQP8 leads to cell survival, enabling functional characterization. Proliferation and insulin content were found to be increased in AQP8↑ cells underlining the importance of AQP8 in the regulation of H2O2 homeostasis in pancreatic β-cells. Colocalization analyses of V5-tagged AQP8 proteins based on confocal microscopic imaging revealed its membrane targeting to both the mitochondria and the plasma membrane, but not to the ER, the Golgi apparatus, insulin vesicles, or peroxisomes. By using the fluorescence H2O2 specific biosensor HyPer together with endogenous generation of H2O2 using d-amino acid oxidase, live cell imaging revealed enhanced H2O2 flux to the same subcellular regions in AQP8 overexpressing cells pointing to its importance in the development of type-1 DM. Moreover, the novel ultrasensitive H2O2 sensor HyPer7.2 clearly unveiled AQP8 as a H2O2 transporter in RINm5F cells. In summary, these studies establish that AQP8 is an important H2O2 pore in insulin-producing RINm5F cells involved in the transport of H2O2 through the mitochondria and cell membrane and may help to explain the H2O2 transport and toxicity in pancreatic β-cells. AQP8 KO is lethal for insulin-producing RINm5F cells. The peroxiporin AQP8 is localized in the plasma and mitochondrial membrane channeling H2O2 in RINm5F cells. Tet-On regulated low AQP8 re-expression and APQ8 overexpression are feasible models to study H2O2 transport in β-cells. Overexpression of AQP8 increases cell proliferation and cellular insulin content.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are membrane-bound organelles involved in many metabolic pathways and essential for human health. They harbor a large number of enzymes involved in the different pathways, thus requiring transport of substrates, products and cofactors involved across the peroxisomal membrane. Although much progress has been made in understanding the permeability properties of peroxisomes, there are still important gaps in our knowledge about the peroxisomal transport of metabolites and cofactors. In this review, we discuss the different modes of transport of metabolites and essential cofactors, including CoA, NAD+, NADP+, FAD, FMN, ATP, heme, pyridoxal phosphate, and thiamine pyrophosphate across the peroxisomal membrane. This transport can be mediated by non-selective pore-forming proteins, selective transport proteins, membrane contact sites between organelles, and co-import of cofactors with proteins. We also discuss modes of transport mediated by shuttle systems described for NAD+/NADH and NADP+/NADPH. We mainly focus on current knowledge on human peroxisomal metabolite and cofactor transport, but also include knowledge from studies in plants, yeast, fruit fly, zebrafish, and mice, which has been exemplary in understanding peroxisomal transport mechanisms in general.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important oxidizing molecule that regulates the metabolisms of aerobic organisms. Redox signaling comprises physiological oxidative stress (eustress), while excessive oxidative stress causes damage to molecules. The main enzymatic generators of H2O2 are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidases or NADPH oxidases (NOXs) and mitochondrial respiratory chains, as well as various oxidases. The NOX family is constituted of seven enzyme isoforms that produce a superoxide anion (O2−), which can be converted to H2O2 by superoxide dismutase or spontaneously. H2O2 passes through the membranes by some aquaporins (AQPs), known as peroxyporins. It diffuses through cells and tissues to initiate cellular effects, such as proliferation, the recruitment of immune cells, and cell shape changes. Therefore, it has been proposed that H2O2 has the same importance as Ca2+ or adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to act as modulators in signaling and the metabolism. The present overview focuses on the metabolic processes of liver and adipose tissue, regulated by the H2O2 generated by NOXs.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are highly dynamic subcellular compartments with important functions in lipid and ROS metabolism. Impaired peroxisomal function can lead to severe metabolic disorders with developmental defects and neurological abnormalities. Recently, a new group of disorders has been identified, characterised by defects in the membrane dynamics and division of peroxisomes rather than by loss of metabolic functions. However, the contribution of impaired peroxisome plasticity to the pathophysiology of those disorders is not well understood. Mitochondrial fission factor (MFF) is a key component of both the peroxisomal and mitochondrial division machinery. Patients with MFF deficiency present with developmental and neurological abnormalities. Peroxisomes (and mitochondria) in patient fibroblasts are highly elongated as a result of impaired organelle division. The majority of studies into MFF-deficiency have focused on mitochondrial dysfunction, but the contribution of peroxisomal alterations to the pathophysiology is largely unknown. Here, we show that MFF deficiency does not cause alterations to overall peroxisomal biochemical function. However, loss of MFF results in reduced import-competency of the peroxisomal compartment and leads to the accumulation of pre-peroxisomal membrane structures. We show that peroxisomes in MFF-deficient cells display alterations in peroxisomal redox state and intra-peroxisomal pH. Removal of elongated peroxisomes through induction of autophagic processes is not impaired. A mathematical model describing key processes involved in peroxisome dynamics sheds further light into the physical processes disturbed in MFF-deficient cells. The consequences of our findings for the pathophysiology of MFF-deficiency and related disorders with impaired peroxisome plasticity are discussed. Peroxisomes are highly elongated in cells from patients lacking fission factor MFF. Peroxisomal proteins are not uniformly distributed in highly elongated peroxisomes. Peroxisomal metabolism is unaltered in MFF-deficient patients. Peroxisomal elongations are stabilised through interaction with microtubules. Highly elongated peroxisomes are not spared from degradation.

Abstract
Peroxisomes can undergo fission during cell division, followed by their segregation between mother and daughter cells. Despite species-specific variations in the molecular composition of the fission machinery, the central mechanistic factors can be assigned to two groups: the Pex11 family and the dynamin-related protein family. In a recent study, Singh et al. describe the involvement of a member of the Pxmp2-related protein family in peroxisome fission: the novel peroxin Pex37.

Staying in Healthy Contact: How Peroxisomes Interact with Other Cell Organelles. Trends Mol Med 2019; 26:201-214. [PMID: 31727543 DOI: 10.1016/j.molmed.2019.09.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2019] [Revised: 08/24/2019] [Accepted: 09/24/2019] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Peroxisomes share extensive metabolic connections with other cell organelles. Membrane contact sites (MCSs) establish and maintain such interactions, and they are vital for organelle positioning and motility. In the past few years peroxisome interactions and MCSs with other cellular organelles have been explored extensively, resulting in the identification of new MCSs, the tethering molecules involved, and their functional characterization. Defective tethering and compartmental communication can lead to pathological conditions that can be termed 'organelle interaction diseases'. We review peroxisome-organelle interactions in mammals and summarize the most recent knowledge of mammalian peroxisomal organelle contacts in health and disease.

Peroxisomal Hydrogen Peroxide Metabolism and Signaling in Health and Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20153673. [PMID: 31357514 PMCID: PMC6695606 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20153673] [Citation(s) in RCA: 100] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2019] [Revised: 07/24/2019] [Accepted: 07/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a non-radical reactive oxygen species generated during many (patho)physiological conditions, is currently universally recognized as an important mediator of redox-regulated processes. Depending on its spatiotemporal accumulation profile, this molecule may act as a signaling messenger or cause oxidative damage. The focus of this review is to comprehensively evaluate the evidence that peroxisomes, organelles best known for their role in cellular lipid metabolism, also serve as hubs in the H2O2 signaling network. We first briefly introduce the basic concepts of how H2O2 can drive cellular signaling events. Next, we outline the peroxisomal enzyme systems involved in H2O2 metabolism in mammals and reflect on how this oxidant can permeate across the organellar membrane. In addition, we provide an up-to-date overview of molecular targets and biological processes that can be affected by changes in peroxisomal H2O2 metabolism. Where possible, emphasis is placed on the molecular mechanisms and factors involved. From the data presented, it is clear that there are still numerous gaps in our knowledge. Therefore, gaining more insight into how peroxisomes are integrated in the cellular H2O2 signaling network is of key importance to unravel the precise role of peroxisomal H2O2 production and scavenging in normal and pathological conditions.
