Int J Biochem Cell Biol 2024; 171:106583. [PMID: 38657899 DOI: 10.1016/j.biocel.2024.106583] [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: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
Protein crotonylation plays a role in regulating cellular metabolism, gene expression, and other biological processes. NDUFA9 (NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] 1 alpha subcomplex subunit 9) is closely associated with the activity and function of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I. Mitochondrial function and respiratory chain are closely related to browning of white adipocytes, it's speculated that NDUFA9 and its crotonylation are associated with browning of white adipocytes. Firstly, the effect of NDUFA9 on white adipose tissue was verified in white fat browning model mice, and it was found that NDUFA9 promoted mitochondrial respiration, thermogenesis, and browning of white adipose tissue. Secondly, in cellular studies, it was discovered that NDUFA9 facilitated browning of white adipocytes by enhancing mitochondrial function, mitochondrial complex I activity, ATP synthesis, and mitochondrial respiration. Again, the level of NDUFA9 crotonylation was increased by treating cells with vorinostat (SAHA)+sodium crotonate (NaCr) and overexpressing NDUFA9, it was found that NDUFA9 crotonylation promoted browning of white adipocytes. Meanwhile, the acetylation level of NDUFA9 was increased by treating cells with SAHA+sodium acetate (NaAc) and overexpressing NDUFA9, the assay revealed that NDUFA9 acetylation inhibited white adipocytes browning. Finally, combined with the competitive relationship between acetylation and crotonylation, it was also demonstrated that NDUFA9 crotonylation promoted browning of white adipocytes. Above results indicate that NDUFA9 and its crotonylation modification promote mitochondrial function, which in turn promotes browning of white adipocytes. This study establishes a theoretical foundation for the management and intervention of obesity, which is crucial in addressing obesity and related medical conditions in the future.

Liu Y, Liang J, Liu Z, Tian X, Sun C. Dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase promotes white adipocytes browning by activating the RAS/ERK pathway and undergoing crotonylation modification. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 265:130816. [PMID: 38503371 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130816] [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: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
Acetylation modification has a wide range of functional roles in almost all physiological processes, such as transcription and energy metabolism. Crotonylation modification is mainly involved in RNA processing, nucleic acid metabolism, chromosome assembly and gene expression, and it's found that there is a competitive relationship between crotonylation modification and acetylation modification. Previous study found that dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (DLD) was highly expressed in brown adipose tissue (BAT) of white adipose tissue browning model mice, suggesting that DLD is closely related to white fat browning. This study was performed by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), Western blotting (WB), Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Immunofluorescence staining, JC-1 staining, Mito-Tracker Red CMXRos staining, Oil red O staining, Bodipy staining, HE staining, and Blood lipid quadruple test. The assay revealed that DLD promotes browning of white adipose tissue in mice. Cellularly, DLD was found to promote white adipocytes browning by activating mitochondrial function through the RAS/ERK pathway. Further studies revealed that the crotonylation modification and acetylation modification of DLD had mutual inhibitory effects. Meanwhile, DLD crotonylation promoted white adipocytes browning, while DLD acetylation did the opposite. Finally, protein interaction analysis and Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays identified Sirtuin3 (SIRT3) as a decrotonylation and deacetylation modification enzyme of regulates DLD. In conclusion, DLD promotes browning of white adipocytes by activating mitochondrial function through crotonylation modification and the RAS/ERK pathway, providing a theoretical basis for the control and treatment of obesity, which is of great significance for the treatment of obesity and obesity-related diseases in the future.

Abstract
It has long been known that starch as a raw material is of strategic importance for meeting primarily the nutritional needs of people around the world. Year by year, the demand not only for traditional but also for functional food based on starch and its derivatives is growing. Problems with the availability of petrochemical raw materials, as well as environmental problems with the recycling of post-production waste, make non-food industries also increasingly interested in this biopolymer. Its supporters will point out countless advantages such as wide availability, renewability, and biodegradability. Opponents, in turn, will argue that they will not balance the problems with its processing and storage and poor functional properties. Hence, the race to find new methods to improve starch properties towards multifunctionality is still ongoing. For these reasons, in the presented review, referring to the structure and physicochemical properties of starch, attempts were made to highlight not only the current limitations in its processing but also new possibilities. Attention was paid to progress in the non-selective and selective functionalization of starch to obtain materials with the greatest application potential in the food (resistant starch, dextrins, and maltodextrins) and/or in the non-food industries (hydrophobic and oxidized starch).

Abstract
The outstanding versatility of starch offers a source of inspiration for the development of high-performance-value-added biomaterials for the biomedical field, including drug delivery, tissue engineering and diagnostic imaging. This is because starch-based materials can be tailored to specific applications via facile grafting or other chemistries, introducing specific substituents, with starch being effectively the "template" used in all the chemical transformations discussed in this review. A considerable effort has been carried out to obtain specific tailored starch-based grafted polymers, taking advantage of its biocompatibility and biodegradability with appealing sustainability considerations. The aim of this review is to critically explore the latest research that use grafting chemistries on starch for the synthesis of products for biomedical applications. An effort is made in reviewing the literature that proposes synthetic "greener" approaches, the use of enzymes and their immobilized analogues and alternative solvent systems, including water emulsions, ionic liquids and supercritical CO2.

Abstract
Starch is the second most abundantly available natural polymer in the world, after cellulose. If we add its biodegradability and non-toxicity to the natural environment, it becomes a raw material very attractive for the food and non-food industries. However, in the latter case, mainly due to the high hydrophilicity of starch, it is necessary to carry out many more or less complex operations and processes. One of the fastest growing industries in the last decade is the processing of biodegradable materials for packaging purposes. This is mainly due to awareness of producers and consumers about the dangers of unlimited production and the use of non-degradable petroleum polymers. Therefore, in the present review, an attempt was made to show the possibilities and limitations of using starch as a packaging material. The most important physicochemical features of this biopolymer are discussed, and special attention is paid to more or less environmentally friendly methods of improving its processing properties.
