Bongkrekic acid alleviates airway inflammation via breaking the mPTP/mtDAMPs/RAGE feedback loop in a steroid-insensitive asthma model. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 177:117111. [PMID: 39013220 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.117111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2024] [Revised: 07/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is critical in the pathogenesis of asthma. Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) regulates the release of mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns (mtDAMPs) to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis. Bongkrekic acid (BKA) is a highly selective inhibitor of mPTP opening, participates the progression of various diseases. This research investigated the exact roles of BKA and mPTP in the pathogenesis of asthma and elucidated its underlying mechanisms. In the present study, cytochrome c, one of the mtDAMPs, levels were elevated in asthmatic patients, and associated to airway inflammation and airway obstruction. BKA, the inhibitor of mPTP markedly reversed TDI-induced airway hyperresponsiveness, airway inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Pretreatment with mitochondrial precipitation, to simulate the release of mtDAMPs, further increased TDI-induced airway inflammation and the expression of RAGE in mice. Administration of the inhibitor of RAGE, FPS-ZM1, alleviated the airway inflammation, the abnormal open of mPTP and mitochondrial dysfunction induced by mtDAMPs and TDI. Furthermore, stimulation with different mtDAMPs activated RAGE signaling in human bronchial epithelial cells. Accordingly, our study indicated that mPTP was important and BKA was efficient in alleviating inflammation in TDI-induced asthma. A positive feedback loop involving mPTP, mtDAMPs and RAGE was present in TDI-induced asthma, indicating that mPTP might serve as a potential therapeutic target for asthma.

Abstract
Introduction The present study was undertaken to assess the status of oxidative stress in chronic cigarette smokers. Materials and methods Thirty adult male chronic cigarette smokers and an equal number of age and sex-matched normal subjects from the Deoghar district of Jharkhand state, India, were included in the study. The status of lipid peroxidation was determined using malondialdehyde (MDA), and the activities of enzymic antioxidants, such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), were determined using standard protocols. Results Results showed that the serum MDA levels were significantly increased, and the enzymic antioxidants were markedly decreased in chronic cigarette smokers compared to the normal subjects. Conclusion Our study demonstrated that oxidative stress is more pronounced in cigarette smokers compared to non-smokers. The number of cigarettes smoked plays a crucial role in increasing the reactive oxygen species and decreasing the cellular antioxidants.

Availability of Receptors for Advanced Glycation End-Products (RAGE) Influences Differential Transcriptome Expression in Lungs from Mice Exposed to Chronic Secondhand Smoke (SHS). Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:4940. [PMID: 38732159 PMCID: PMC11084232 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25094940] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 04/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
The receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) has a central function in orchestrating inflammatory responses in multiple disease states including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). RAGE is a transmembrane pattern recognition receptor with particular interest in lung disease due to its naturally abundant pulmonary expression. Our previous research demonstrated an inflammatory role for RAGE following acute exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS). However, chronic inflammatory mechanisms associated with RAGE remain ambiguous. In this study, we assessed transcriptional outcomes in mice exposed to chronic SHS in the context of RAGE expression. RAGE knockout (RKO) and wild-type (WT) mice were delivered nose-only SHS via an exposure system for six months and compared to control mice exposed to room air (RA). We specifically compared WT + RA, WT + SHS, RKO + RA, and RKO + SHS. Analysis of gene expression data from WT + RA vs. WT + SHS showed FEZ1, Slpi, and Msln as significant at the three-month time point; while RKO + SHS vs. WT + SHS identified cytochrome p450 1a1 and Slc26a4 as significant at multiple time points; and the RKO + SHS vs. WT + RA revealed Tmem151A as significant at the three-month time point as well as Gprc5a and Dynlt1b as significant at the three- and six-month time points. Notable gene clusters were functionally analyzed and discovered to be specific to cytoskeletal elements, inflammatory signaling, lipogenesis, and ciliogenesis. We found gene ontologies (GO) demonstrated significant biological pathways differentially impacted by the presence of RAGE. We also observed evidence that the PI3K-Akt and NF-κB signaling pathways were significantly enriched in DEGs across multiple comparisons. These data collectively identify several opportunities to further dissect RAGE signaling in the context of SHS exposure and foreshadow possible therapeutic modalities.

Predictive value of combination of lung injury prediction score and receptor for advanced glycation end‑products for the occurrence of acute respiratory distress syndrome. Exp Ther Med 2024; 27:4.

Abstract
The present study evaluated the predictive value of the combination of the lung injury prediction score (LIPS) and receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) for the occurrence of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in critically ill patients with ARDS risk factors. A total of 551 patients with risk factors of ARDS were divided into an ARDS group and a non-ARDS group. LIPS was computed within 6 h of admission into the ICU, and the plasma concentration of RAGE was detected within 24 h of admission. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify independent associations, and the predictive values for ARDS occurrence were assessed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Within 7 days after admission into the ICU, ARDS occurred in 176 patients (31.9%). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that LIPS [odds ratio (OR), 1.282; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.108-1.604], RAGE levels (OR, 2.359; 95% CI, 1.351-4.813) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score (OR, 1.167; 95% CI, 1.074-1.485) were independently associated with ARDS occurrence. ROC curves demonstrated that the area under curve (AUC) of LIPS, RAGE levels and their combination was 0.714 [standard error (SE), 0.023; 95% CI, 0.670-0.759], 0.709 (SE, 0.025; 95% CI, 0.660-0.758) and 0.889 (SE, 0.014; 95% CI, 0.861-0.917), respectively. The AUC of LIPS combined with RAGE levels was significantly higher compared with those of LIPS (0.889 vs. 0.714; Z=6.499; P<0.001) and RAGE (0.889 vs. 0.709; Z=6.282; P<0.001) levels alone. In conclusion, both LIPS and RAGE levels were independently associated with ARDS occurrence in critically ill patients with ARDS risk factors, and had medium predictive values for ARDS occurrence. Combination of LIPS with RAGE levels increased the predictive value for ARDS occurrence.

Tissue-specific mitochondrial toxicity of cigarette smoke concentrate: consequence to oxidative phosphorylation. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 2023; 325:H1088-H1098. [PMID: 37712922 PMCID: PMC10907033 DOI: 10.1152/ajpheart.00199.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2023] [Revised: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
Cigarette smoke exposure is a well-known risk factor for developing numerous chronic health conditions, including pulmonary disease and cardiometabolic disorders. However, the cellular mechanisms mediating the toxicity of cigarette smoke in extrapulmonary tissues are still poorly understood. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to characterize the acute dose-dependent toxicity of cigarette smoke on mitochondrial metabolism by determining the susceptibility and sensitivity of mitochondrial respiration from murine skeletal (gastrocnemius and soleus) and cardiac muscles, as well as the aorta to cigarette smoke concentrate (CSC). In all tissues, exposure to CSC inhibited tissue-specific respiration capacity, measured by high-resolution respirometry, according to a biphasic pattern. With a break point of 451 ± 235 μg/mL, the aorta was the least susceptible to CSC-induced mitochondrial respiration inhibition compared with the gastrocnemius (151 ± 109 μg/mL; P = 0.008, d = 2.3), soleus (211 ± 107 μg/mL; P = 0.112; d = 1.7), and heart (94 ± 51 μg/mL; P < 0.001; d = 2.6) suggesting an intrinsic resistance of the vascular smooth muscle mitochondria to cigarette smoke toxicity. In contrast, the cardiac muscle was the most susceptible and sensitive to the effects of CSC, demonstrating the greatest decline in tissue-specific respiration with increasing CSC concentration (P < 0.001, except the soleus). However, when normalized to citrate synthase activity to account for differences in mitochondrial content, cardiac fibers' sensitivity to cigarette smoke inhibition was no longer significantly different from both fast-twitch gastrocnemius and slow-twitch soleus muscle fibers, thus suggesting similar mitochondrial phenotypes. Collectively, these findings established the acute dose-dependent toxicity of cigarette smoke on oxidative phosphorylation in permeabilized tissues involved in the development of smoke-related cardiometabolic diseases.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Despite numerous investigations into the mechanisms underlying cigarette smoke-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, no studies have investigated the tissue-specific mitochondrial toxicity to cigarette smoke. We demonstrate that, while aorta is least sensitive and susceptible to cigarette smoke-induced toxicity, the degree of cigarette smoke-induced toxicity in striated muscle depends on the tissue-specific mitochondrial content. We conclude that while the mitochondrial content influences cigarette smoke-induced toxicity in striated muscles, aorta is intrinsically protected against cigarette smoke-induced mitochondrial toxicity.

Abstract
Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are chronic pathologies with a high incidence worldwide. They share some pathological mechanisms, including hyperinsulinemia, the production and release of hormones, and hyperglycemia. The above, over time, affects other systems of the human body by causing tissue hypoxia, low-grade inflammation, and oxidative stress, which lay the pathophysiological groundwork for cancer. The leading causes of death globally are T2DM and cancer. Other main alterations of this pathological triad include the accumulation of advanced glycation end products and the release of endogenous alarmins due to cell death (i.e., damage-associated molecular patterns) such as the intracellular proteins high-mobility group box protein 1 and protein S100 that bind to the receptor for advanced glycation products (RAGE) - a multiligand receptor involved in inflammatory and metabolic and neoplastic processes. This review analyzes the latest advanced reports on the role of RAGE in the development of obesity, T2DM, and cancer, with an aim to understand the intracellular signaling mechanisms linked with cancer initiation. This review also explores inflammation, oxidative stress, hypoxia, cellular senescence, RAGE ligands, tumor microenvironment changes, and the “cancer hallmarks” of the leading tumors associated with T2DM. The assimilation of this information could aid in the development of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to lower the morbidity and mortality associated with these diseases.
