[PMID: 38098505 PMCID: PMC10720920 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1296456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial heat shock protein 90 (mtHsp90), including Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated protein 1 (TRAP1) and Hsp90 translocated from cytoplasm, modulating cellular metabolism and signaling pathways by altering the conformation, activity, and stability of numerous client proteins, and is highly expressed in tumors. mtHsp90 inhibition results in the destabilization and eventual degradation of its client proteins, leading to interference with various tumor-related pathways and efficient control of cancer cell development. Among these compounds, gamitrinib, a specific mtHsp90 inhibitor, has demonstrated its safety and efficacy in several preclinical investigations and is currently undergoing evaluation in clinical trials. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the present knowledge pertaining to mtHsp90, encompassing its structure and function. Moreover, our main emphasis is on the development of mtHsp90 inhibitors for various cancer therapies, to present a thorough overview of the recent pre-clinical and clinical advancements in this field.

Lee D, Hong JH. Niemann-Pick Disease Type C (NPDC) by Mutation of NPC1 and NPC2: Aberrant Lysosomal Cholesterol Trafficking and Oxidative Stress. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:2021. [PMID: 38136141 PMCID: PMC10740957 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12122021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Cholesterol trafficking is initiated by the endocytic pathway and transported from endo/lysosomes to other intracellular organelles. Deficiencies in cholesterol-sensing and binding proteins NPC1 and NPC2 induce accumulation in lysosomes and the malfunction of trafficking to other organelles. Each organelle possesses regulatory factors to induce cholesterol trafficking. The mutation of NPC1 and NPC2 genes induces Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPDC), which is a hereditary disease and causes progressive neurodegeneration, developmental disability, hypotonia, and ataxia. Oxidative stress induces damage in NPDC-related intracellular organelles. Although studies on the relationship between NPDC and oxidation are relatively rare, several studies have reported the therapeutic potential of antioxidants in treating NPDC. Investigating antioxidant drugs to relieve oxidative stress and cholesterol accumulation is suggested to be a powerful tool for developing treatments for NPDC. Understanding NPDC provides challenging issues in understanding the oxidative stress-lysosome metabolism of the lipid axis. Thus, we elucidated the relationship between complexes of intracellular organelles and NPDC to develop our knowledge and suggested potential antioxidant reagents for NPDC therapy.

Endothelial Cell Dysfunction and Hypoxia as Potential Mediators of Pain in Fabry Disease: A Human-Murine Translational Approach. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:15422. [PMID: 37895103 PMCID: PMC10607880 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242015422] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Fabry disease (FD) is caused by α-galactosidase A (AGAL) enzyme deficiency, leading to globotriaosylceramide accumulation (Gb3) in several cell types. Pain is one of the pathophysiologically incompletely understood symptoms in FD patients. Previous data suggest an involvement of hypoxia and mitochondriopathy in FD pain development at dorsal root ganglion (DRG) level. Using immunofluorescence and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT PCR), we investigated patient-derived endothelial cells (EC) and DRG tissue of the GLA knockout (KO) mouse model of FD. We address the question of whether hypoxia and mitochondriopathy contribute to FD pain pathophysiology. In EC of FD patients (P1 with pain and, P2 without pain), we found dysregulated protein expression of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF) 1a and HIF2 compared to the control EC (p < 0.01). The protein expression of the HIF downstream target vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA, p < 0.01) was reduced and tube formation was hampered in the P1 EC compared to the healthy EC (p < 0.05). Tube formation ability was rescued by applying transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) inhibitor SB-431542. Additionally, we found dysregulated mitochondrial fusion/fission characteristics in the P1 and P2 EC (p < 0.01) and depolarized mitochondrial membrane potential in P2 compared to control EC (p < 0.05). Complementary to human data, we found upregulated hypoxia-associated genes in the DRG of old GLA KO mice compared to WT DRG (p < 0.01). At protein level, nuclear HIF1a was higher in the DRG neurons of old GLA KO mice compared to WT mice (p < 0.01). Further, the HIF1a downstream target CA9 was upregulated in the DRG of old GLA KO mice compared to WT DRG (p < 0.01). Similar to human EC, we found a reduction in the vascular characteristics in GLA KO DRG compared to WT (p < 0.05). We demonstrate increased hypoxia, impaired vascular properties, and mitochondrial dysfunction in human FD EC and complementarily at the GLA KO mouse DRG level. Our data support the hypothesis that hypoxia and mitochondriopathy in FD EC and GLA KO DRG may contribute to FD pain development.
