Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common and severe clinical renal syndromes with high morbidity and mortality. Ferroptosis is a form of programmed cell death (PCD), is characterized by iron overload, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and lipid peroxidation. As ferroptosis has been increasingly studied in recent years, it is closely associated with the pathophysiological process of AKI and provides a target for the treatment of AKI. This review offers a comprehensive overview of the regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis, summarizes its role in various AKI models, and explores its interaction with other forms of cell death, it also presents research on ferroptosis in AKI progression to other diseases. Additionally, the review highlights methods for detecting and assessing AKI through the lens of ferroptosis and describes potential inhibitors of ferroptosis for AKI treatment. Finally, the review presents a perspective on the future of clinical AKI treatment, aiming to stimulate further research on ferroptosis in AKI.

Rutin attenuates ensartinib-induced hepatotoxicity by non-transcriptional regulation of TXNIP. Cell Biol Toxicol 2024; 40:38. [PMID: 38789868 PMCID: PMC11126486 DOI: 10.1007/s10565-024-09883-4] [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: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
Ensartinib, an approved ALK inhibitor, is used as a first-line therapy for advanced ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer in China. However, the hepatotoxicity of ensartinib seriously limits its clinical application and the regulatory mechanism is still elusive. Here, through transcriptome analysis we found that transcriptional activation of TXNIP was the main cause of ensartinib-induced liver dysfunction. A high TXNIP level and abnormal TXNIP translocation severely impaired hepatic function via mitochondrial dysfunction and hepatocyte apoptosis, and TXNIP deficiency attenuated hepatocyte apoptosis under ensartinib treatment. The increase in TXNIP induced by ensartinib is related to AKT inhibition and is mediated by MondoA. Through screening potential TXNIP inhibitors, we found that the natural polyphenolic flavonoid rutin, unlike most reported TXNIP inhibitors can inhibit TXNIP by binding to TXNIP and partially promoting its proteasomal degradation. Further studies showed rutin can attenuate the hepatotoxicity of ensartinib without antagonizing its antitumor effects. Accordingly, we suggest that TXNIP is the key cause of ensartinib-induced hepatotoxicity and rutin is a potential clinically safe and feasible therapeutic strategy for TXNIP intervention.

Acta Biochim Biophys Sin (Shanghai) 2024; 56:513-524. [PMID: 38229544 PMCID: PMC11094629 DOI: 10.3724/abbs.2023286] [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: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) is a crucial thioredoxin-binding protein that is recognized as a tumor suppressor in diverse malignancies, such as breast cancer, lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and thyroid cancer. However, the specific role and molecular mechanisms of TXNIP in the pathogenesis and progression of pancreatic cancer cells have not been determined. In this study, we investigate the relationship between TXNIP expression and overall survival prognosis in pancreatic cancer patients. Mechanistic studies are conducted to reveal the role of TXNIP in pancreatic cancer cell proliferation, migration, and regulation during malignancy. Our findings indicate that patients with high TXNIP expression have a more favorable prognosis. In vitro experiments with pancreatic cell lines show that overexpression of TXNIP suppresses the proliferation and migration of pancreatic cancer cells. Furthermore, we find that TXNIP inhibits the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway, thereby decreasing the malignant potential of pancreatic cancer. In conclusion, our study reveals TXNIP as a promising new predictive marker and therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer.
