Cross-sectional and longitudinal associations of PAHs exposure with serum uric acid and hyperuricemia among Chinese urban residents: the potential role of oxidative damage. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024:124664. [PMID: 39098642 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.124664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 07/13/2024] [Accepted: 08/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
A few studies found polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were associated with serum uric acid (SUA) or hyperuricemia (HUA). However, the longitudinal study is vacant, and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We aimed to assess the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations of urinary PAHs metabolites with SUA levels and HUA risk, and explore the mediating effects of oxidative stress and inflammation. 10 urinary mono-hydroxylated PAHs metabolites and SUA levels were measured among 4047 Chinese urban residents at baseline and 1496 individuals at 6-year follow-up. Biomarkers of oxidative damage and inflammation in urine/plasma were determined at baseline. We adopted generalized linear mixed models and logistic regression to assess the associations of PAHs metabolites with SUA and HUA, weighted quantile sum regression and adaptive elastic net regression to evaluate the overall effects of multi-PAHs mixture, and mediation analysis to estimate the mediating roles of the biomarkers. In the cross-sectional study, each 1-unit increase in the ln-transformed values of 2-OHNa, 2-OHFlu, 4-OHPh, 9-OHPh, 3-OHPh, 2-OHPh, ΣOHNa, ΣOHPh, and ΣOHPAHs was associated with a 4.10-, 3.90-, 6.42-, 7.33-, 4.85-, 5.43-, 4.47-, 7.67-, and 5.22-μmol/L increase in SUA, respectively. Meanwhile, each 1-unit increase in the ln-transformed values of 1-OHNa, 2-OHNa, 4-OHPh, 9-OHPh, 3-OHPh, 2-OHPh, ΣOHNa, ΣOHPh, and ΣOHPAHs was associated with a 17, 14, 15, 22, 14, 19, 18, 27, and 21% increment in HUA risk, respectively. After 6 years, individuals with persistent high level of 9-OHPh had a 12.5 μmol/L increase in SUA compared with those with persistent low level. The overall effects of multi-PAHs mixture on SUA and HUA remain positive. 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine mediated the associations of PAHs metabolites with SUA and HUA, and the mediated proportion ranged from 5.39% to 15.34%. PAHs exposure was associated with the elevated SUA levels and increased HUA risk, and oxidative DNA damage may be one of the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is an oxidative form of iron-dependent cell death characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides on membranes. Iron and lipids containing polyunsaturated fatty acids are essential for this process. Ferroptosis is central to several neurological diseases and underlies the importance of balanced iron and polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism in the brain, particularly in neurons. Here, we reflect on the potential links between neuronal physiology and the accumulation of iron and peroxidated lipids, the mechanisms neurons use to protect themselves from ferroptosis, and the relationship between pathogenic protein deposition and ferroptosis in neurodegenerative disease. We propose that the unique physiology of neurons makes them especially vulnerable to ferroptosis.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a first-line clinical agent used for treating solid tumors. Cisplatin damages the DNA of tumor cells and induces the production of high levels of reactive oxygen species to achieve tumor killing. Tumor cells have evolved several ways to tolerate this damage. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are an important mode of information transfer in tumor cells. EVs can be substantially activated under cisplatin treatment and mediate different responses of tumor cells under cisplatin treatment depending on their different cargoes. However, the mechanism of action of tumor-cell-derived EVs under cisplatin treatment and their potential cargoes are still unclear. This review considers recent advances in cisplatin-induced release of EVs from tumor cells, with the expectation of providing a new understanding of the mechanisms of cisplatin treatment and drug resistance, as well as strategies for the combined use of cisplatin and other drugs.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that extracellular vesicles (EVs) serve powerful and complex functions in metabolic regulation and metabolic-associated disease, although this field of research is still in its infancy. EVs are released into the extracellular space from all cells and carry a wide range of cargo including miRNAs, mRNA, DNA, proteins, and metabolites that have robust signaling effects in receiving cells. EV production is stimulated by all major stress pathways and, as such, has a role in both restoring homeostasis during stress and perpetuating disease. In metabolic regulation, the dominant stress signal is a lack of energy due to either nutrient deficits or damaged mitochondria from nutrient excess. This stress signal is termed "energetic stress," which triggers a robust and evolutionarily conserved response that engages major cellular stress pathways, the ER unfolded protein response, the hypoxia response, the antioxidant response, and autophagy. This article proposes the model that energetic stress is the dominant stimulator of EV release with a focus on metabolically important cells such as hepatocytes, adipocytes, myocytes, and pancreatic β-cells. Furthermore, this article will discuss how the cargo in stress-stimulated EVs regulates metabolism in receiving cells in both beneficial and detrimental ways. © 2023 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), through their cargo, are important mediators of bystander responses in the irradiated bone marrow (BM). MiRNAs carried by EVs can potentially alter cellular pathways in EV-recipient cells by regulating their protein content. Using the CBA/Ca mouse model, we characterised the miRNA content of BM-derived EVs from mice irradiated with 0.1 Gy or 3 Gy using an nCounter analysis system. We also analysed proteomic changes in BM cells either directly irradiated or treated with EVs derived from the BM of irradiated mice. Our aim was to identify key cellular processes in the EV-acceptor cells regulated by miRNAs. The irradiation of BM cells with 0.1 Gy led to protein alterations involved in oxidative stress and immune and inflammatory processes. Oxidative stress-related pathways were also present in BM cells treated with EVs isolated from 0.1 Gy-irradiated mice, indicating the propagation of oxidative stress in a bystander manner. The irradiation of BM cells with 3 Gy led to protein pathway alterations involved in the DNA damage response, metabolism, cell death and immune and inflammatory processes. The majority of these pathways were also altered in BM cells treated with EVs from mice irradiated with 3 Gy. Certain pathways (cell cycle, acute and chronic myeloid leukaemia) regulated by miRNAs differentially expressed in EVs isolated from mice irradiated with 3 Gy overlapped with protein pathway alterations in BM cells treated with 3 Gy EVs. Six miRNAs were involved in these common pathways interacting with 11 proteins, suggesting the involvement of miRNAs in the EV-mediated bystander processes. In conclusion, we characterised proteomic changes in directly irradiated and EV-treated BM cells, identified processes transmitted in a bystander manner and suggested miRNA and protein candidates potentially involved in the regulation of these bystander processes.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are identified as a non-classical way to mediate iron efflux except ferroportin. Interestingly, recent studies indicated that EVs pathway is a novel way involved in iron efflux. Mitochondria-derived vesicles (MDVs) are the potential mediator to load mitochondrial iron into EVs. Additionally, iron-replete cells resist excess iron-induced damage by secreting iron-loaded EVs, and the uptake of these EVs induces oxidative damage in the recipient cell. Importantly, iron-loaded EVs play a key role in aberrant iron distribution, which drives the progress of diseases like nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and neurodegenerative diseases. Herein, we summarize extant research on intracellular iron export with an emphasis on EVs and put our eyes on the relationship between iron-loaded EVs with both parent and target cells. Iron-loaded EVs will be an important avenue for later research on their vital role in iron redistribution.

Abstract
Acenaphthene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) that is a widely distributed environmental pollutant that accumulates in organisms and leads to health risks in humans. Although acenaphthene is reported to be toxic to aquatic organisms, its effects of acenaphthene on the livers of these organisms have not been evaluated. Here, zebrafish were used as an experimental model. Zebrafish larvae were exposed to 4.5, 5.5, and 6.5 mg/L acenaphthene for 72 h while adult zebrafish were exposed to 1.5, 2, and 2.5 mg/L acenaphthene for 28 days. We investigated the mechanism by which acenaphthene causes liver toxicity in zebrafish. The results showed that acenaphthene affected the early development of zebrafish and led to mitochondrial damage by promoting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) resulting in oxidative stress. The expression of genes related to inflammation and apoptosis was analyzed, observing up-regulation of the pro-inflammatory factors IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-6. The pro-apoptotic genes p53, Caspase-3, and Bax and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio were up-regulated, while the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2 was down-regulated. In addition, we investigated the effects of acenaphthene on liver metabolism. When exposed to acenaphthene, the glycogen content of the liver decreased, while lipid accumulation increased together with alterations in related indicators of liver metabolism. In conclusion, acenaphthene induced oxidative stress through ROS production, leading to mitochondrial damage and activation of pathways associated with inflammation and apoptosis, resulting in hepatotoxicity. This affects normal liver metabolism. Our results revealed the mechanism of hepatotoxicity in zebrafish acenaphthene, and provided new evidence for a more comprehensive understanding of the hepatotoxicity of acenaphthene.

Petan T, Manček-Keber M. Half is enough: Oxidized lysophospholipids as novel bioactive molecules. Free Radic Biol Med 2022; 188:351-362. [PMID: 35779690 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2022.06.228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 10/17/2022]
Abstract
Studies in the last decade have established the roles of oxidized phospholipids as modulators of various cellular processes, from inflammation and immunity to cell death. Oxidized lysophospholipids, formed through the activity of phospholipases and oxidative enzymes and lacking an acyl chain in comparison with parent phospholipids, are now emerging as novel bioactive lipid mediators. Their detection and structural characterization have been limited in the past due to low amounts and the complexity of their biosynthetic and removal pathways, but recent studies have unequivocally demonstrated their formation under inflammatory conditions. The involvement of oxidized lysophospholipids in immune regulation classifies them as damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which can promote sterile inflammation and contribute to autoimmune and chronic diseases as well as aging-related diseases. Their signaling pathways are just beginning to be revealed. As the first publications indicate that oxidized lysophospholipids use the same receptors as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), it is likely that the inhibition of signaling pathways activated by oxidized lysophospholipids would affect innate immunity per se. On the other hand, inhibition or modulation of their enzymatic formation, which would not interfere with the response to pathogens, might be beneficial and is potentially a promising new field of research.

Hepatoprotective Role of 4-Octyl Itaconate in Concanavalin A-Induced Autoimmune Hepatitis. Mediators Inflamm 2022; 2022:5766434. [PMID: 35310452 PMCID: PMC8933104 DOI: 10.1155/2022/5766434] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2021] [Revised: 12/19/2021] [Accepted: 02/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
4-Octyl itaconate (OI) is a novel anti-inflammatory metabolite that exerts protective effects in many various disease models. However, its function in autoimmune hepatitis- (AIH-) associated hepatic injury has not been investigated. In this study, we successfully used concanavalin A (Con A) to establish an AIH-associated liver injury model. Furthermore, we investigated the effect of OI in Con A-induced liver injury and found that OI mitigated Con A-induced histopathological damage. OI administration reduced serum levels of alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase in Con A-treated mice and attenuated the infiltration of macrophages induced by Con A. Moreover, OI effectively inhibited the expression of proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), and IL-1β induced by Con A. Furthermore, OI decreased hepatocyte apoptosis and malondialdehyde levels and increased the reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione ratio in the Con A-induced liver injury model. In addition, we found that OI inhibited Con A-induced hepatocyte apoptosis in vitro, while Nrf2 deletion eliminated this effect. Furthermore, we administrated the Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 in OI+Con A-treated mice and found that ML385 eliminated the protective effect of OI in vivo. In addition, OI inhibited Con A-induced activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-𝜅B) and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines in macrophages. Therefore, OI protected mice from Con A-induced liver damage and may be associated with Nrf2 activation and NF-𝜅B inhibition. Finally, our study revealed that OI inhibited TNF-α, or supernatants from Con A-treated RAW264.7 cells induced hepatocyte apoptosis. In conclusion, our study indicated that OI alleviated Con A-induced hepatic damage by reducing inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and apoptosis.

Chen Z, Tian Z, Liu X, Sun W. The potential risks and exposure of Qinling giant pandas to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) pollution. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2022; 292:118294. [PMID: 34626712 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2021.118294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2021] [Revised: 09/28/2021] [Accepted: 10/04/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Rapid industrialization and urbanization have created a substantial urban-rural gradient for various pollutants. The Qinling Mountains are highly important in terms of biodiversity, providing habitat for giant pandas, which are endemic to China and are a widely recognized symbol for conservation. Whether polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) exposure risks regarding in situ animal conservation zones are affected by environmental pollution or even enhanced by the mountain-trapping effect requires further research. Our group carried out a large-scale investigation on the area ranging from Xi'an to Hanzhong across the giant panda habitat in the Qinling Mountains by collecting atmosphere, soil, bamboo, and fecal samples from different sites over a two-year period. The total toxicity of atmospheric PAHs and the frequencies of soil PAHs above effect range low (ERL) values showed a decreasing trend from urban areas to the central mountains, suggesting a distance effect from the city. The proportions of total 5- and 6-ring PAHs in the atmosphere were higher in the central mountainous areas than in the urban areas, while this difference was reversed in the soil. Health risk assessments showed that the incremental lifetime carcinogenic risks (ILCR) of PAH exposure by bamboo ingestion ranged from 2.16 × 10-4 to 3.11 × 10-4, above the critical level of 10-4. Bamboo ingestion was the main driver of the PAH exposure risks. The concentration difference between bamboo and fecal samples provided a reference for the level of PAHs absorbed by the panda digestive system. Since the Qinling Mountains possess the highest density of giant pandas and provide habitats to many other endangered animal and plant species, we should not ignore the probability of health risks posed by PAHs. Monitoring the pollution level and reducing the atmospheric emissions of toxic pollutants are recommended actions. Further detailed research should also be implemented on pandas' health effects of contaminant exposure.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles are cellular secretory particles that can be used as natural drug delivery carriers. They have successfully delivered drugs including chemotherapeutics, proteins, and genes to treat various diseases. Oxidative stress is an abnormal physiological phenomenon, and it is associated with nearly all diseases. In this short review, we summarize the regulation of EVs on oxidative stress. There are direct effects and indirect effects on the regulation of oxidative stress through EVs. On the one hand, they can deliver antioxidant substances or oxides to recipient cells, directly relieving or aggravating oxidative stress. On the other hand, regulate factors of oxidative stress-related signaling pathways can be delivered to recipient cells by the mediation of EVs, realizing the indirect regulation of oxidative stress. To the best of our knowledge, however, only endogenous drugs have been delivered by EVs to regulate oxidative stress till now. And the heterogeneity of EVs may complicate the regulation of oxidative stress. Therefore, this short review aims to draw more attention to the EVs-based regulation of oxidative stress, and we hope excellent EVs-based delivery carriers that can deliver exogenous drugs to regulate oxidative stress can be exploited.

Extracellular Vesicles under Oxidative Stress Conditions: Biological Properties and Physiological Roles. Cells 2021; 10:cells10071763. [PMID: 34359933 PMCID: PMC8306565 DOI: 10.3390/cells10071763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 66] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 07/04/2021] [Accepted: 07/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Under physio-pathological conditions, cells release membrane-surrounded structures named Extracellular Vesicles (EVs), which convey their molecular cargo to neighboring or distant cells influencing their metabolism. Besides their involvement in the intercellular communication, EVs might represent a tool used by cells to eliminate unnecessary/toxic material. Here, we revised the literature exploring the link between EVs and redox biology. The first proof of this link derives from evidence demonstrating that EVs from healthy cells protect target cells from oxidative insults through the transfer of antioxidants. Oxidative stress conditions influence the release and the molecular cargo of EVs that, in turn, modulate the redox status of target cells. Oxidative stress-related EVs exert both beneficial or harmful effects, as they can carry antioxidants or ROS-generating enzymes and oxidized molecules. As mediators of cell-to-cell communication, EVs are also implicated in the pathophysiology of oxidative stress-related diseases. The review found evidence that numerous studies speculated on the role of EVs in redox signaling and oxidative stress-related pathologies, but few of them unraveled molecular mechanisms behind this complex link. Thus, the purpose of this review is to report and discuss this evidence, highlighting that the analysis of the molecular content of oxidative stress-released EVs (reminiscent of the redox status of originating cells), is a starting point for the use of EVs as diagnostic and therapeutic tools in oxidative stress-related diseases.
