BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 137:212854. [PMID: 35929244 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2022.212854] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2021] [Revised: 04/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Injury of renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) is an important cause of kidney stone formation. In this article, the repairing effect of polysaccharide (PCP0) extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine Poria cocos and its carboxymethylated derivatives on damaged HK-2 cells was studied, and the differences in adhesion and endocytosis of the cells to nanometer calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) before and after repair were explored. METHODS Sodium oxalate (2.8 mmol/L) was used to damage HK-2 cells to establish a damage model, and then Poria cocos polysaccharides (PCPs) with different carboxyl (COOH) contents were used to repair the damaged cells. The changes in the biochemical indicators of the cells before and after the repair and the changes in the ability to adhere to and internalize nano-COM were detected. RESULTS The natural PCPs (PCP0, COOH content = 2.56%) were carboxymethylated, and three carboxylated modified Poria cocos with 7.48% (PCP1), 12.07% (PCP2), and 17.18% (PCP3) COOH contents were obtained. PCPs could repair the damaged HK-2 cells, and the cell viability was enhanced after repair. The cell morphology was gradually repaired, the proliferation and healing rate were increased. The ROS production was reduced, and the polarity of the mitochondrial membrane potential was restored. The level of intracellular Ca2+ ions decreased, and the autophagy response was weakened. CONCLUSION The cells repaired by PCPs inhibited the adhesion to nano-COM and simultaneously promoted the endocytosis of nano-COM. The endocytic crystals mainly accumulated in the lysosome. Inhibiting adhesion and increasing endocytosis could reduce the nucleation, growth, and aggregation of cell surface crystals, thereby inhibiting the formation of kidney stones. With the increase of COOH content in PCPs, its ability to repair damaged cells, inhibit crystal adhesion, and promote crystal endocytosis all increased, that is, PCP3 with the highest COOH content showed the best ability to inhibit stone formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Recent evidences highlight a role of the mitochondria calcium homeostasis in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). To overcome treatment resistance, we aimed to evaluate the role of the mitochondrial sodium-calcium-lithium exchanger (NCLX) and its targeting in CRC. We also identified curcumin as a new inhibitor of NCLX. METHODS We examined whether curcumin and pharmacological compounds induced the inhibition of NCLX-mediated mitochondrial calcium (mtCa2+) extrusion, the role of redox metabolism in this process. We evaluated their anti-tumorigenic activity in vitro and in a xenograft mouse model. We analyzed NCLX expression and associations with survival in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset and in tissue microarrays from 381 patients with microsatellite instability (MSI)-driven CRC. RESULTS In vitro, curcumin exerted strong anti-tumoral activity through its action on NCLX with mtCa2+ and reactive oxygen species overload associated with a mitochondrial membrane depolarization, leading to reduced ATP production and apoptosis. NCLX inhibition with pharmacological and molecular approaches reproduced the effects of curcumin. NCLX inhibitors decreased CRC tumor growth in vivo. Both transcriptomic analysis of TCGA dataset and immunohistochemical analysis of tissue microarrays demonstrated that higher NCLX expression was associated with MSI status, and for the first time, NCLX expression was significantly associated with recurrence-free survival. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight a novel anti-tumoral mechanism of curcumin through its action on NCLX and mitochondria calcium overload that could benefit for therapeutic schedule of patients with MSI CRC.

Int Immunopharmacol 2021; 98:107859. [PMID: 34153664 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2021.107859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2021] [Revised: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 06/04/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
To explore the potential role of HMGB1 on TDI-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation, HBE cells were treated with TDI-HSA conjugate to observe the changes of HMGB1, TLR4, NF-κB, Nrf2 and NLRP3 inflammasome related proteins expressions, ROS release and MMP. NAC, TPCA-1 and Resatorvid pre-treatments were applied to explore the effects of ROS, NF-κB and TLR4 on TDI-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation. The CRISPR/Cas9 system was used to construct HMGB1 gene knockout HBE cell line and then to explore the role of HMGB1 on TDI-HSA induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation. GL pre-treatment was applied to further confirm the role of HMGB1. Results showed that TDI increased HMGB1, TLR4, P-p65, Nrf2 proteins expressions and ROS release, decreased MMP level and activated NLRP3 inflammasome in HBE cells in a dose dependent manner. NAC, TPCA-1 and Resatorvid pre-treatments decreased the expression of P-p65 and inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Inhibition of HMGB1 decreased Nrf2 expression and ROS release, improved MMP level and reduced NLRP3 inflammasome activation. GL ameliorated NLRP3 inflammasome activation via inhibiting HMGB1 regulated ROS/NF-κB pathway. These results indicated that HMGB1 was involved in TDI-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation as a positive regulatory mechanism. The study provided a potential target for early prevention and treatment of TDI-OA.

Abstract
Calcium ion (Ca2+) signaling is critical to many physiological processes, and its kinetics and subcellular localization are tightly regulated in all cell types. All Ca2+ flux perturbations impact cell function and may contribute to various diseases, including cancer. Several modulators of Ca2+ signaling are attractive pharmacological targets due to their accessibility at the plasma membrane. Despite this, the number of specific inhibitors is still limited, and to date there are no anticancer drugs in the clinic that target Ca2+ signaling. Ca2+ dynamics are impacted, in part, by modifications of cellular metabolic pathways. Conversely, it is well established that Ca2+ regulates cellular bioenergetics by allosterically activating key metabolic enzymes and metabolite shuttles or indirectly by modulating signaling cascades. A coordinated interplay between Ca2+ and metabolism is essential in maintaining cellular homeostasis. In this review, we provide a snapshot of the reciprocal interaction between Ca2+ and metabolism and discuss the potential consequences of this interplay in cancer cells. We highlight the contribution of Ca2+ to the metabolic reprogramming observed in cancer. We also describe how the metabolic adaptation of cancer cells influences this crosstalk to regulate protumorigenic signaling pathways. We suggest that the dual targeting of these processes might provide unprecedented opportunities for anticancer strategies. Interestingly, promising evidence for the synergistic effects of antimetabolites and Ca2+-modulating agents is emerging.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that mitochondrial metabolism has a fundamental role in induction of carcinogenesis due to the influence of increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in all steps of oncogene transformation and cancer progression. It is widely accepted that the anticancer effect of conventional anticancer drugs is due to induction of oxidative stress and elevated intracellular levels of ROS, which alter the redox homeostasis of cancer cells. On the other hand, the harmful side effects of conventional anticancer chemotherapeutics are also due to increased production of ROS and disruption of redox homeostasis of normal cells and tissues. Therefore, there is a growing interest toward the development of natural antioxidant compounds from various sources, which could impact the redox state of cancer and normal cells by different pathways and could prevent damage from oxidant-mediated reactions. It is known that chitosan exhibits versatile biological properties, including biodegradability, biocompatibility, and a less toxic nature. Because of its antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and immunostimulatory activities, the biopolymer has been used in a wide variety of pharmaceutical, biomedical, food industry, health, and agricultural applications and has been classified as a new physiologically bioactive material.

Abstract
Age and sex play an essential role in the cardiac tolerance to ischemia-reperfusion injury: cardiac resistance significantly decreases during postnatal maturation and the female heart is more tolerant than the male myocardium. It is widely accepted that mitochondrial dysfunction, and particularly mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) opening, plays a major role in determining the extent of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury. We have observed that the MPTP sensitivity to the calcium load differs in mitochondria isolated from neonatal and adult myocardium, as well as from adult male and female hearts. Neonatal and female mitochondria are more resistant both in the extent and in the rate of mitochondrial swelling induced by high calcium concentration. Our data further suggest that age- and sex-dependent specificity of the MPTP is not the result of different amounts of ATP synthase and cyclophilin D: neonatal and adult hearts, similarly as the male and female hearts, contain comparable amounts of MPTP and its regulatory protein cyclophilin D. We can speculate that the lower sensitivity of MPTP to the calcium-induced swelling may be related to the higher ischemic tolerance of both neonatal and female myocardium.

Abstract
Mitophagy, a process that selectively removes damaged organelles by autolysosomal degradation, is an early cellular response to ischemia. Mitophagy is activated in both cardiomyocytes and platelets during ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) and heart disease conditions. We focus on the molecular regulation of mitophagy and highlight the role of mitophagy in cardioprotection.

Abstract
CONTEXT 4-Nerolidylcatechol (4-NRC) has showed antitumor potential through apoptosis. However, its apoptotic mechanisms are still unclear, especially in leukemic cells. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the cytotoxic potential of 4-NRC and its cell death pathways in p53-null K562 leukemic cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cytotoxicity of 4-NRC (4.17-534.5 μM) over 24 h of exposure was evaluated by MTT assay. 4-NRC-induced apoptosis in K562 cells was investigated by phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization, cell cycle, sub-G1, mitochondrial evaluation, cytochrome c, cyclin D1 and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and caspase activity analysis. RESULTS IC50 values obtained were 11.40, 27.31, 15.93 and 15.70 μM for lymphocytes, K562, HL-60 and Jurkat cells, respectively. In K562 cells, 4-NRC (27 μM) promoted apoptosis as verified by cellular morphological changes, a significant increase in PS externalization and sub-G1 cells. Moreover, it significantly arrested the cells at the G0/G1 phase due to a reduction in cyclin D1 expression. These effects of 4-NRC also significantly promoted a reduction in mitochondrial activity and membrane depolarization, accumulation of cytosolic cytochrome c and ROS overproduction. Additionally, it triggered an increase in caspases -3/7, -8 and -9 activities. When the cells were pretreated with N-acetyl-l-cysteine ROS scavenger, 4-NRC-induced apoptosis was partially blocked, which suggests that it exerts cytotoxicity though not exclusively through ROS-mediated mechanisms. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION 4-NRC has antileukemic properties, inducing apoptosis mediated by mitochondrial-dependent mechanisms with cyclin D1 inhibition. Given that emerging treatment concepts include novel combinations of well-known agents, 4-NRC could offer a promising alternative for chemotherapeutic combinations to maximize tumour suppression.

Abstract
The interplay between Ca2+ and reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling pathways is well established, with reciprocal regulation occurring at a number of subcellular locations. Many Ca2+ channels at the cell surface and intracellular organelles, including the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria are regulated by redox modifications. In turn, Ca2+ signaling can influence the cellular generation of ROS, from sources such as NADPH oxidases and mitochondria. This relationship has been explored in great depth during the process of apoptosis, where surges of Ca2+ and ROS are important mediators of cell death. More recently, coordinated and localized Ca2+ and ROS transients appear to play a major role in a vast variety of pro-survival signaling pathways that may be crucial for both physiological and pathophysiological functions. While much work is required to firmly establish this Ca2+-ROS relationship in cancer, existing evidence from other disease models suggests this crosstalk is likely of significant importance in tumorigenesis. In this review, we describe the regulation of Ca2+ channels and transporters by oxidants and discuss the potential consequences of the ROS-Ca2+ interplay in tumor cells.

Sex difference in the sensitivity of cardiac mitochondrial permeability transition pore to calcium load. Mol Cell Biochem 2015; 412:147-54. [PMID: 26715132 DOI: 10.1007/s11010-015-2619-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2015] [Accepted: 12/08/2015] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Most of the experimental studies have revealed that female heart is more tolerant to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury as compared with the male myocardium. It is widely accepted that mitochondrial dysfunction, and particularly mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) opening, plays a major role in determining the extent of cardiac I/R injury. The aim of the present study was, therefore, to analyze (i) whether calcium-induced swelling of cardiac mitochondria is sex-dependent and related to the degree of cardiac tolerance to I/R injury and (ii) whether changes in MPTP components-cyclophilin D (CypD) and ATP synthase-can be involved in this process. We have observed that in mitochondria isolated from rat male and female hearts the MPTP has different sensitivity to the calcium load. Female mitochondria are more resistant both in the extent and in the rate of the mitochondrial swelling at higher calcium concentration (200 µM). At low calcium concentration (50 µM) no differences were observed. Our data further suggest that sex-dependent specificity of the MPTP is not the result of different amounts of ATP synthase and CypD, or their respective ratio in mitochondria isolated from male and female hearts. Our results indicate that male and female rat hearts contain comparable content of MPTP and its regulatory protein CypD; parallel immunodetection revealed also the same contents of adenine nucleotide translocator or voltage-dependent anion channel. Increased resistance of female heart mitochondria thus cannot be explained by changes in putative components of MPTP, and rather reflects regulation of MPTP function.

Abstract
Cancer transformation involves reprograming of mitochondrial function to avert cell death mechanisms, monopolize energy metabolism, accelerate mitotic proliferation, and promote metastasis. Mitochondrial ion channels have emerged as promising therapeutic targets because of their connection to metabolic and apoptotic functions. This mini review discusses how mitochondrial channels may be associated with cancer transformation and expands on the possible involvement of mitochondrial protein import complexes in pathophysiological process.
