Abstract
The detrimental effects of fluoride on neurotoxicity have been widely recorded, yet the detailed mechanisms underlying these effects remain unclear. This study explores lysosomal iron metabolism in fluoride-related neurotoxicity, with a focus on the Steap3/TRPML1 axis. Utilizing sodium fluoride (NaF)-treated human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) and mouse hippocampal neuron (HT22) cell lines, our research demonstrates that NaF enhances the accumulation of ferrous ions (Fe2+) in these cells, disrupting lysosomal iron metabolism through the Steap3/TRPML1 axis. Notably, NaF exposure upregulated ACSL4 and downregulated GPX4, accompanied by reduced glutathione (GSH) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. These changes indicate increased vulnerability to ferroptosis within neuronal cells. The iron chelator deferoxamine (DFO) mitigates this disruption. DFO binds to lysosomal Fe2+ and inhibits the Steap3/TRPML1 axis, restoring normal lysosomal iron metabolism, preventing lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP), and reducing neuronal cell ferroptosis. Our findings suggest that interference in lysosomal iron metabolism may mitigate fluoride-induced neurotoxicity, underscoring the critical role of the Steap3/TRPML1 axis in this pathological process.

Calcium supplementation attenuates fluoride-induced bone injury via PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy and mitochondrial apoptosis in mice. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 465:133411. [PMID: 38181596 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.133411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
Excessive consumption of fluoride can cause skeletal fluorosis. Mitophagy has been identified as a novel target for bone disorders. Meanwhile, calcium supplementation has shown great potential for mitigating fluoride-related bone damage. Hence, this study aimed to elucidate the association between mitophagy and skeletal fluorosis and the precise mechanisms through which calcium alleviates these injuries. A 100 mg/L sodium fluoride (NaF) exposure model in Parkin knockout (Parkin-/-) mice and a 100 mg/L NaF exposure mouse model with 1% calcium carbonate (CaCO3) intervention were established in the current study. Fluoride exposure caused the impairment of mitochondria and activation of PTEN-induced putative kinase1 (PINK1)/E3 ubiquitin ligase Park2 (Parkin)-mediated mitophagy and mitochondrial apoptosis in the bones, which were restored after blocking Parkin. Additionally, the intervention model showed fluoride-exposed mice exhibited abnormal bone trabecula and mechanical properties. Still, these bone injuries could be effectively attenuated by adding 1% calcium to their diet, which reversed fluoride-activated mitophagy and apoptosis. To summarize, fluoride can activate bone mitophagy through the PINK1/Parkin pathway and mitochondrial apoptosis. Parkin-/- and 1% calcium provide protection against fluoride-induced bone damage. Notably, this study provides theoretical bases for the prevention and therapy of animal and human health and safety caused by environmental fluoride contamination.

Zhuang J, Chen Q, Xu L, Chen X. Effects of chronic triclosan exposure on nephrotoxicity and gut microbiota dysbiosis in adult mice. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 271:115866. [PMID: 38199221 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 12/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
Triclosan (TCS), a broad-spectrum, lipophilic, and antibacterial agent, has been commonly used in cosmetics, medical devices, and household products. The toxicity of TCS has recently become a research hotspot. Emerging evidence has shown that TCS can easily migrate to humans and animals and cause adverse effects on various target organs. However, the effects of TCS exposure on nephrotoxicity and underlying mechanisms remain unknown. The aim of the present study was to explore TCS-induced nephrotoxicity. Therefore, we establish a mouse model based on adult male mice to explore the effects of 10-week TCS exposure (50 mg/kg) on kidney. After mice were sacrificed, their blood, feces, and renal tissues were harvested for further analysis. We found that TCS treatment dramatically caused kidney structural damage, and increased blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) expression levels, which indicated renal dysfunction. In addition, TCS exposure increased the malondialdehyde (MDA) and decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD) and total cholesterol (TCHO) expression levels, which indicated oxidative stress and lipid metabolism changes. The RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of kidney tissue identified 221 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) enriched in 50 pathways, including drug metabolism-other enzymes, oxidative phosphorylation, glutathione metabolism, and inflammatory mediator regulation of TRP channels signaling pathways. The full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing results showed that TCS exposure altered the community of gut microbiota, which was closely related to renal function damage. The above findings provide new insights into the mechanism of TCS-induced nephrotoxicity.

Zou M, Wang D, Chen Y, Yang C, Xu S, Dai Y. Dajianzhong decoction ameliorated D-gal-induced cognitive aging by triggering mitophagy in vivo and in vitro. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 319:117212. [PMID: 37783403 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Dajianzhong decoction (DJZ) is a classical famous formula for treating yang-deficiency-syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine and recorded in Jin-Kui-Yao-Lue in Dynasty of Dong Han. Cognitive aging can present similar features of mitochondrial energy deficits to the clinical features of Yang deficiency. However, there is poor understanding of the effects of DJZ treatment on mitophagy in cognitive aging. AIM OF THE STUDY The aims of this work were to decipher the effectiveness and mechanism of DJZ against cognitive aging, focusing on mitophagy. MATERIALS AND METHODS YFP-Parkin HeLa cells, D-galactose (D-gal) -induced mice (500 mg/kg for 35 d, s. c.) and SH-SY5Y cells (80 mg/ml for 6 h) were established. Firstly, the formation of YFP-Parkin puncta (a well-known mitophagy marker) in YFP-Parkin HeLa cells was employed to discover the mitophagy induction of DJZ. Moreover, the genes and proteins related to PINK1/Parkin pathway and mitochondrial functions were evaluated after treatment with DJZ in vivo (3.5 g/kg or 1.75 g/kg, i. g, 35 d) and in vitro (0.2, 2 and 20 μg/ml, 12 h). Furthermore, the effectiveness of DJZ (3.5 g/kg or 1.75 g/kg, i. g) for alleviating cognitive aging and nerve damage was measured in D-gal mice. Finally, siPINK1 was applied to reverse validation of DJZ in vitro. RESULTS The formation of YFP-Parkin puncta in YFP-Parkin HeLa cells was markedly induced by DJZ in a dose-dependent manner. The immunofluorescence intensity of Parkin and the protein expression of Parkin in mitochondrial membrane in D-gal mice were significantly increased after treatment of DJZ. The inhibition of PINK1/Parkin pathway in D-gal-induced mice and SH-SY5Y cells was significantly activated by DJZ. Simultaneously, the impairment of mitochondrial functions induced by D-gal were markedly reversed by DJZ. In addition, DJZ significantly ameliorated the neuropathological injury and cognitive declines in D-gal mice. Finally, after PINK1 was knocked down by siPINK1 in vitro, the neuroprotective effects of DJZ and the Parkin enhancement effect of DJZ were markedly reversed. CONCLUSION Our findings firstly showed DJZ could relieve cognitive aging through facilitating PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy to protect against mitochondrial functions, indicating DJZ may be regarded as a promising intervention in cognitive aging.
