ADVANCES IN OPHTHALMOLOGY PRACTICE AND RESEARCH 2024; 4:98-105. [PMID: 38707995 PMCID: PMC11066588 DOI: 10.1016/j.aopr.2024.04.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
Purpose To explore the role of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in the occurrence and development of various ocular malignancies. Methods In this article, we retrieved ocular malignancy data from the Global Cancer Observatory (GCO) and performed correlation analysis with the global UV index and sunshine duration. We searched for associated studies using the following databases: Embase, Pubmed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar. We conducted the literature by searching the Mesh terms denoting an exposure of interest ("UV radiation", "ultraviolet rays", and "ocular malignancies", All studies included are published until December 30, 2023 without language restrictions. Results The mechanisms and epidemiological statistics of UVR on the onset and progression of eyelid malignancies are the most studied and clear. The role of UVR in conjunctival melanoma is similar to that in eyelid melanoma. The relationship between uveal melanoma and UVR is controversial, however, it may have at least a certain impact on its prognosis. UVR causes ocular surface squamous neoplasia by further activating HPV infection. Conclusions UVR is a decisive risk factor for ocular malignancies, but the incidence of ultraviolet-induced tumors is also affected by many other factors. A correct and comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms of UVR in the pathogenesis of ocular malignant tumors can provide patients with more effective and selective immune regulation strategies.

Abstract
Mitochondria play a major role in ROS production and defense during their life cycle. The transcriptional activator PGC-1α is a key player in the homeostasis of energy metabolism and is therefore closely linked to mitochondrial function. PGC-1α responds to environmental and intracellular conditions and is regulated by SIRT1/3, TFAM, and AMPK, which are also important regulators of mitochondrial biogenesis and function. In this review, we highlight the functions and regulatory mechanisms of PGC-1α within this framework, with a focus on its involvement in the mitochondrial lifecycle and ROS metabolism. As an example, we show the role of PGC-1α in ROS scavenging under inflammatory conditions. Interestingly, PGC-1α and the stress response factor NF-κB, which regulates the immune response, are reciprocally regulated. During inflammation, NF-κB reduces PGC-1α expression and activity. Low PGC-1α activity leads to the downregulation of antioxidant target genes resulting in oxidative stress. Additionally, low PGC-1α levels and concomitant oxidative stress promote NF-κB activity, which exacerbates the inflammatory response.

Abstract
Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is the primary pathogenetic factor in skin photoaging. It can disrupt cellular homeostasis by damaging DNA, inducing an inflammatory cascade, immunosuppression, and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, resulting in a variety of dermatologic conditions. The skin microbiome plays an important role in the homeostasis and maintenance of healthy skin. Emerging evidence has indicated that highly diverse gut microbiome may also have an impact on the skin health, referred to as the gut-skin axis (GSA). Oral and topical probiotics through modulating the skin microbiome and gut-skin microbial interactions could serve as potential management to prevent and treat the skin photoaging by multiple pathways including reducing oxidative stress, inhibiting ECM remodeling, inhibiting the inflammatory cascade reaction, and maintaining immune homeostasis. In this review, the effects of oral and topical probiotics in skin photoaging and related mechanisms are both described systematically and comprehensively.

Abstract
Supporting mitochondrial function is one of the therapeutic strategies that improve the functioning of skeletal muscle in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). In this work, we studied the effect of a non-immunosuppressive inhibitor of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) alisporivir (5 mg/kg/day), reducing the intensity of the necrotic process and inflammation in skeletal muscles on the cardiac phenotype of dystrophin-deficient mdx mice. We found that the heart mitochondria of mdx mice show an increase in the intensity of oxidative phosphorylation and an increase in the resistance of organelles to the MPT pore opening. Alisporivir had no significant effect on the hyperfunctionalization of the heart mitochondria of mdx mice, and the state of the heart mitochondria of wild-type animals did not affect the dynamics of organelles but significantly suppressed mitochondrial biogenesis and reduced the amount of mtDNA in the heart muscle. Moreover, alisporivir suppressed mitochondrial biogenesis in the heart of wild-type mice. Alisporivir treatment resulted in a decrease in heart weight in mdx mice, which was associated with a significant modification of the transmission of excitation in the heart. The latter was also noted in the case of WT mice treated with alisporivir. The paper discusses the prospects for using alisporivir to correct the function of heart mitochondria in DMD.

Abstract
Mitigation of calcium-dependent destruction of skeletal muscle mitochondria is considered as a promising adjunctive therapy in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). In this work, we study the effect of intraperitoneal administration of a non-immunosuppressive inhibitor of calcium-dependent mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore alisporivir on the state of skeletal muscles and the functioning of mitochondria in dystrophin-deficient mdx mice. We show that treatment with alisporivir reduces inflammation and improves muscle function in mdx mice. These effects of alisporivir were associated with an improvement in the ultrastructure of mitochondria, normalization of respiration and oxidative phosphorylation, and a decrease in lipid peroxidation, due to suppression of MPT pore opening and an improvement in calcium homeostasis. The action of alisporivir was associated with suppression of the activity of cyclophilin D and a decrease in its expression in skeletal muscles. This was observed in both mdx mice and wild-type animals. At the same time, alisporivir suppressed mitochondrial biogenesis, assessed by the expression of Ppargc1a, and altered the dynamics of organelles, inhibiting both DRP1-mediated fission and MFN2-associated fusion of mitochondria. The article discusses the effects of alisporivir administration and cyclophilin D inhibition on mitochondrial reprogramming and networking in DMD and the consequences of this therapy on skeletal muscle health.

Alisporivir Treatment Alleviates Mitochondrial Dysfunction in the Skeletal Muscles of C57BL/6NCrl Mice with High-Fat Diet/Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes Mellitus. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:9524.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a systemic metabolic disorder associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, with mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore opening being recognized as one of its pathogenic mechanisms. Alisporivir has been recently identified as a non-immunosuppressive analogue of the MPT pore blocker cyclosporin A and has broad therapeutic potential. The purpose of the present work was to study the effect of alisporivir (2.5 mg/kg/day i.p.) on the ultrastructure and functions of the skeletal muscle mitochondria of mice with diabetes mellitus induced by a high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin injections. The glucose tolerance tests indicated that alisporivir increased the rate of glucose utilization in diabetic mice. An electron microscopy analysis showed that alisporivir prevented diabetes-induced changes in the ultrastructure and content of the mitochondria in myocytes. In diabetes, the ADP-stimulated respiration, respiratory control, and ADP/O ratios and the level of ATP synthase in the mitochondria decreased, whereas alisporivir treatment restored these indicators. Alisporivir eliminated diabetes-induced increases in mitochondrial lipid peroxidation products. Diabetic mice showed decreased mRNA levels of Atp5f1a, Ant1, and Ppif and increased levels of Ant2 in the skeletal muscles. The skeletal muscle mitochondria of diabetic animals were sensitized to the MPT pore opening. Alisporivir normalized the expression level of Ant2 and mitochondrial susceptibility to the MPT pore opening. In parallel, the levels of Mfn2 and Drp1 also returned to control values, suggesting a normalization of mitochondrial dynamics. These findings suggest that the targeting of the MPT pore opening by alisporivir is a therapeutic approach to prevent the development of mitochondrial dysfunction and associated oxidative stress in the skeletal muscles in diabetes.

Abstract
Simple Summary Diabetes mellitus as a systemic metabolic disease is one of the most serious threats to global health in this century. Diabetic cardiomyopathy is increasingly recognized as one of the most important complications of the disease, which is associated with impaired cell energy metabolism and damage to mitochondria in cardiomyocytes. Therefore, targeting mitochondrial dysfunction by pharmacological agents can be used as a therapeutic strategy in diabetic heart disease. The aim of the work was to study the effect of the mitochondria-targeted agent alisporivir on the development of mitochondrial dysfunction in the heart of mice with experimental diabetes mellitus. Alisporivir has been recently identified as a non-immunosuppressive analogue of cyclosporin A, a selective inhibitor of cyclophilin D and the mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, with a potential in a wide range of therapeutic indications. Our results indicated that alisporivir alleviates diabetes-induced abnormalities in the ultrastructure and functions of mitochondria in cardiomyocytes and increases the rate of glucose utilization in diabetic mice. The data suggest that alisporivir acts as a mitochondria-targeted metabolic reprogramming agent and attenuates oxidative damage to the heart tissue of diabetic mice. Abstract Diabetes mellitus is a systemic metabolic disorder associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, with the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore opening being considered as one of its possible mechanisms. The effect of alisporivir, a non-immunosuppressive cyclosporin derivative and a selective inhibitor of the MPT pore opening, on the ultrastructure and functions of the heart mitochondria of mice with diabetes mellitus induced by a high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin injections was studied. The treatment of diabetic animals with alisporivir (2.5 mg/kg ip for 20 days) increased the rate of glucose clearance during the glucose tolerance test. The blood glucose level and the indicator of heart rate in alisporivir-treated diabetic mice tended to restore. An electron microscopy analysis showed that alisporivir prevented mitochondrial swelling and ultrastructural alterations in cardiomyocytes of diabetic mice. Alisporivir canceled the diabetes-induced increases in the susceptibility of heart mitochondria to the MPT pore opening and the level of lipid peroxidation products, but it did not affect the decline in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation capacity. The mRNA expression levels of Pink1 and Parkin in the heart tissue of alisporivir-treated diabetic mice were elevated, suggesting the stimulation of mitophagy. In parallel, alisporivir decreased the level of mtDNA in the heart tissue. These findings suggest that targeting the MPT pore opening by alisporivir alleviates the development of mitochondrial dysfunction in the diabetic heart. The cardioprotective effect of the drug in diabetes can be mediated by the induction of mitophagy and the inhibition of lipid peroxidation in the organelles.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common metabolic diseases in the developed world, and is associated either with the impaired secretion of insulin or with the resistance of cells to the actions of this hormone (type I and type II diabetes, respectively). In both cases, a common pathological change is an increase in blood glucose—hyperglycemia, which eventually can lead to serious damage to the organs and tissues of the organism. Mitochondria are one of the main targets of diabetes at the intracellular level. This review is dedicated to the analysis of recent data regarding the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the development of diabetes mellitus. Specific areas of focus include the involvement of mitochondrial calcium transport systems and a pathophysiological phenomenon called the permeability transition pore in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus. The important contribution of these systems and their potential relevance as therapeutic targets in the pathology are discussed.

Abstract
In response to the energy demand triggered by developmental signals and environmental stressors, the cells launch the mitochondrial biogenesis process. This is a self‐renewal route, by which new mitochondria are generated from the ones already existing. Recently, considerable progress has been made in deciphering mitochondrial biogenesis‐related proteins and genes that function in health and in pathology‐related circumstances. However, an outlook on the intracellular mechanisms shared by the main players that drive mitochondrial biogenesis machinery is still missing. Here, we provide such a view by focusing on the following issues: (a) the role of mitochondrial biogenesis in homeostasis of the mitochondrial mass and function, (b) the signalling pathways beyond the induction/promotion, stimulation and inhibition of mitochondrial biogenesis and (c) the therapeutic applications aiming the repair and regeneration of defective mitochondrial biogenesis (in ageing, metabolic diseases, neurodegeneration and cancer). The review is concluded by the perspectives of mitochondrial medicine and research.

Cerebral metabolite alterations in patients with posttransplant encephalopathy after liver transplantation. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0221626.

Abstract
Background In the first weeks after liver transplantation about 30% of the patients develop a posttransplant encephalopathy. A posttransplant encephalopathy comprises metabolic-toxic caused symptoms such as disorientation, confusion, hallucinations, cognitive dysfunction and seizures. We hypothesize that alterations of cerebral metabolites before liver transplantation predispose posttransplant encephalopathy development after liver transplantation. Methods 31 patients with chronic liver disease underwent magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) before liver transplantation to assess glutamine/glutamate (Glx), myo-Inositol (mI), choline (Cho), creatine/phosphocreatine- and N-acetyl-aspartate/N-acetyl-aspartate-glutamate concentrations in the thalamus, lentiform nucleus and white matter. Of these, 14 patients underwent MRS additionally after liver transplantation. Furthermore, 15 patients received MRS only after liver transplantation. Patients’ data were compared to 20 healthy age adjusted controls. Results Patients showed significantly increased Glx and decreased mI and Cho concentrations compared to controls before liver transplantation (p≤0.01). The MRS values before liver transplantation of patients with posttransplant encephalopathy showed no significant difference compared to patients without posttransplant encephalopathy. Patients after liver transplantation showed increased Glx concentrations (p≤0.01) compared to controls, however, patients with and without posttransplant encephalopathy did not differ. Patients with posttransplant encephalopathy who underwent MRS before and after liver transplantation showed a significant mI increase in all three brain regions (p<0.04) and Glx decrease in the lentiform nucleus after liver transplantation (p = 0.04) while patients without posttransplant encephalopathy only showed a mI increase in the thalamus (p = 0.04). Conclusion Patients with and without posttransplant encephalopathy showed no significant difference in cerebral metabolites before liver transplantation. However, the paired sub-analysis indicates that the extent of cerebral metabolite alterations in patients with liver cirrhosis might be critical for the development of posttransplant encephalopathy after liver transplantation.

Arch Biochem Biophys 2019; 671:42-51. [PMID: 31085166 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2019.05.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2019] [Revised: 04/22/2019] [Accepted: 05/10/2019] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Mitochondria are dynamically regulated by fission and fusion processes. Silibinin induces apoptosis of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells. However, whether or not mitochondria dysfunction is involved in the apoptosis induction with silibinin of both types of the cells remains unknown. We here report that silibinin decreases the mitochondrial mass in terms of MitoTracker Green staining in both breast cancer cells. Silibinin induces morphological changes of mitochondria from oval to truncated or fragmented shapes accordingly. Condensed crests are observed in mitochondria by transmission electron microscopy. Silibinin causes mitochondrial membrane potential reduced. The expression of mitochondrial fission-associated proteins including dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) is up-regulated, whereas expression of the mitochondrial fusion-associated proteins, optic atrophy 1 and mitofusin 1, is down-regulated. In addition, silibinin treatment down-regulates ATP content as well as the levels of mitochondrial biogenesis-regulators including mitochondrial transcription factor A, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 and nuclear respiratory factor 2. Moreover, treatments with DRP1 inhibitor, mdivi-1, or with DRP1-targetted siRNA efficiently prevent silibinin-induced apoptosis in the breast cancer cells, whereas inhibition of DRP1 phosphorylation with staurosporine increases apoptosis furthermore. Taken together, we conclude that silibinin impairs mitochondrial dynamics and biogenesis, leading to apoptosis of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-123 cells.
