Abstract
HDAC11, as a rising star in the histone deacetylase (HDAC) family, has attracted widespread interest in the biomedical field in recent years specially owing to its high defatty-acylase activity compared its innate deacetylase activity. Numerous studies have provided evidence indicating the crucial involvement of HDAC11 in cancers, immune responses, and metabolic processes. Several potent and selective HDAC11 inhibitors have been discovered and identified, which is crucial for exploring the function of HDAC11 and its potential therapeutic applications. Herein, we present a critical overview of the current advances in the biological function of HDAC11 and its inhibitors. We initially discuss the physiological functions of HDAC11 and its pathological roles in relevant diseases. Subsequently, our main focus centers on the design strategy and development process of HDAC11 inhibitors. Additionally, we address significant challenges and outline future directions in this field. This perspective may provide guidance for the further development of HDAC11 inhibitors and their prospects in disease treatment.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 477:135093. [PMID: 39088948 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.135093] [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: 03/12/2024] [Revised: 06/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/03/2024]
Abstract
Exposure to particulate matter (PM) can cause airway inflammation and worsen various airway diseases. However, the underlying molecular mechanism by which PM triggers airway inflammation has not been completely elucidated, and effective interventions are lacking. Our study revealed that PM exposure increased the expression of histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) in human bronchial epithelial cells and mouse airway epithelium through the METTL3/m6A methylation/IGF2BP3 pathway. Functional assays showed that HDAC9 upregulation promoted PM-induced airway inflammation and activation of MAPK signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, HDAC9 modulated the deacetylation of histone 4 acetylation at K12 (H4K12) in the promoter region of dual specificity phosphatase 9 (DUSP9) to repress the expression of DUSP9 and resulting in the activation of MAPK signaling pathway, thereby promoting PM-induced airway inflammation. Additionally, HDAC9 bound to MEF2A to weaken its anti-inflammatory effect on PM-induced airway inflammation. Then, we developed a novel inhaled lipid nanoparticle system for delivering HDAC9 siRNA to the airway, offering an effective treatment for PM-induced airway inflammation. Collectively, we elucidated the crucial regulatory mechanism of HDAC9 in PM-induced airway inflammation and introduced an inhaled therapeutic approach targeting HDAC9. These findings contribute to alleviating the burden of various airway diseases caused by PM exposure.

Abstract
Inflammation serves as the foundation for numerous physiological and pathological processes, driving the onset and progression of various diseases. Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3), an essential chromatin-modifying protein within the histone deacetylase superfamily, exerts its transcriptional inhibitory role through enzymatic histone modification to uphold normal physiological function, growth, and development of the body. With both enzymatic and non-enzymatic activities, HDAC3 plays a pivotal role in regulating diverse transcription factors associated with inflammatory responses and related diseases. This review examines the involvement of HDAC3 in inflammatory responses while exploring its therapeutic potential as a target for treating inflammatory diseases, thereby offering valuable insights for clinical applications.

Abstract
Despite considerable research efforts, inflammatory diseases remain a heavy burden on human health, causing significant economic losses annually. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play a significant role in regulating inflammation (via histone and non-histone protein deacetylation) and chromatin structure and gene expression regulation. Herein, we present a detailed description of the different HDACs and their functions and analyze the role of HDACs in inflammatory diseases, including pro-inflammatory cytokine production reduction, immune cell function modulation, and anti-inflammatory cell activity enhancement. Although HDAC inhibitors have shown broad inflammatory disease treatment potentials, their clinical applicability remains limited because of their non-specific effects, adverse effects, and drug resistance. With further research and insight, these inhibitors are expected to become important tools for the treatment of a wide range of inflammatory diseases. This review aims to explore the mechanisms and application prospects of HDACs and their inhibitors in multiple inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) is a key rate-limiting enzyme in glycolysis. It is well known that PKM2 plays a vital role in the proliferation of tumor cells. However, PKM2 can also exert its biological functions by mediating multiple signaling pathways in neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), cognitive dysfunction, ischemic stroke, post-stroke depression, cerebral small-vessel disease, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, Parkinson's disease (PD), epilepsy, neuropathic pain, and autoimmune diseases. In these diseases, PKM2 can exert various biological functions, including regulation of glycolysis, inflammatory responses, apoptosis, proliferation of cells, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, or pathological autoimmune responses. Moreover, the complexity of PKM2's biological characteristics determines the diversity of its biological functions. However, the role of PKM2 is not entirely the same in different diseases or cells, which is related to its oligomerization, subcellular localization, and post-translational modifications. This article will focus on the biological characteristics of PKM2, the regulation of PKM2 expression, and the biological role of PKM2 in neurological diseases. With this review, we hope to have a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of PKM2, which may help researchers develop therapeutic strategies in clinic.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disease that is rapidly increasing in prevalence and affects more than 600 million adults worldwide, and this figure is estimated to increase by at least double by 2030. In the United States, more than one-third of the adult population is either overweight or obese. The global obesity epidemic is a major risk factor for the development of life-threatening arrhythmias occurring in patients with long QT, particularly in conditions where multiple heart-rate-corrected QT-interval-prolonging mechanisms are simultaneously present. In obesity, excess dietary fat in adipose tissue stimulates the release of immunomodulatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-6, leading to a state of chronic inflammation in patients. Over the last decade, increasing evidence has been found to support IL-6 signaling as a powerful predictor of the severity of heart diseases and increased risk for ventricular arrhythmias. IL-6's pro-inflammatory effects are mediated via trans-signaling and may represent a novel arrhythmogenic risk factor in obese hearts. The first selective inhibitor of IL-6 trans-signaling, olamkicept, has shown encouraging results in phase II clinical studies for inflammatory bowel disease. Nevertheless, the connection between IL-6 trans-signaling and obesity-linked ventricular arrhythmias remains unexplored. Therefore, understanding how IL-6 trans-signaling elicits a cellular pro-arrhythmic phenotype and its use as an anti-arrhythmic target in a model of obesity remain unmet clinical needs.

Abstract
Class IIa histone deacetylases (Class IIa HDACs) play critical roles in regulating essential cellular metabolism and inflammatory pathways. However, dissecting the specific roles of each class IIa HDAC isoform is hindered by the pan-inhibitory effect of current inhibitors and a lack of tools to probe their functions beyond epigenetic regulation. In this study, a novel PROTAC-based compound B4 is developed, which selectively targets and degrades HDAC7, resulting in the effective attenuation of a specific set of proinflammatory cytokines in both lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages and a mouse model. By employing B4 as a molecular probe, evidence is found for a previously explored role of HDAC7 that surpasses its deacetylase function, suggesting broader implications in inflammatory processes. Mechanistic investigations reveal the critical involvement of HDAC7 in the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway by directly interacting with the TNF receptor-associated factor 6 and TGFβ-activated kinase 1 (TRAF6-TAK1) complex, thereby initiating the activation of the downstream mitogen-activated protein kinase/nuclear factor-κB (MAPK/NF-κB) signaling cascade and subsequent gene transcription. This study expands the insight into HDAC7's role within intricate inflammatory networks and highlights its therapeutic potential as a novel target for anti-inflammatory treatments.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a common gastrointestinal problem characterized by the mucosal injury primarily affecting the large intestine. Currently available therapies are not satisfactory as evidenced by high relapse rate and adverse effects. In this study we aimed to develop an effective drug delivery system using reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive thioketal nanoparticles (TKNP), to deliver tubastatin A, a potent HDAC6 inhibitor, to the inflamed colon in mice with ulcerative colitis (UC). TKNPs were synthesized by step-growth polymerization from an acetal exchange reaction while TUBA-TKNP was prepared using the single emulsion solvent evaporation technique. Our developed nanoparticle showed release of tubastatin A only in presence of ROS which is found to be highly present at the site of inflamed colon. Oral administration of TUBA-TKNP resulted in the higher accumulation of tubastatin A at the inflamed colon site and decreased the inflammation as evidenced by reduced infiltration of immune cells and decreased level of pro-inflammatory cytokines in TUBA-TKNP treated mice. In summary, our results show the successful localization of tubastatin A at the site of colon inflammation through TUBA-TKNP delivery, as well as resolution of clinical features of UC in mice.

Abstract
Background Epigenetic dysregulation has been implicated in the development and progression of a variety of human diseases, but epigenetic changes are reversible, and epigenetic enzymes and regulatory proteins can be targeted using small molecules. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis), as a class of epigenetic drugs, are widely used to treat various cancers and other diseases involving abnormal gene expression. Results Specially, HDACis have emerged as a promising strategy to enhance the therapeutic effect of non-neoplastic conditions, including neurological disorders, cardiovascular diseases, renal diseases, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, infectious diseases and rare diseases, along with their related mechanisms. However, their clinical efficacy has been limited by drug resistance and toxicity. Conclusions To date, most clinical trials of HDAC inhibitors have been related to the treatment of cancer rather than the treatment of non-cancer diseases, for which experimental studies are gradually underway. Discussions regarding non-neoplastic diseases often concentrate on specific disease types. Therefore, this review highlights the development of HDACis and their potential therapeutic applications in non-neoplastic diseases, either as monotherapy or in combination with other drugs or therapies.

Watson N, Kuppuswamy S, Ledford WL, Sukumari-Ramesh S. The role of HDAC3 in inflammation: mechanisms and therapeutic implications. Front Immunol 2024; 15:1419685. [PMID: 39050859 PMCID: PMC11266039 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1419685] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are critical regulators of inflammatory gene expression, and the efficacy of pan-HDAC inhibitors has been implicated in various disease conditions. However, it remains largely unclear how HDACs precisely regulate inflammation. To this end, evaluating the isoform-specific function of HDACs is critical, and the isoform-specific targeting could also circumvent the off-target effects of pan-HDAC inhibitors. This review provides an overview of the roles of HDAC3, a class I HDAC isoform, in modulating inflammatory responses and discusses the molecular mechanisms by which HDAC3 regulates inflammation associated with brain pathology, arthritis, cardiovascular diseases, lung pathology, allergic conditions, and kidney disorders. The articles also identify knowledge gaps in the field for future studies. Despite some conflicting reports, the selective inhibition of HDAC3 has been demonstrated to play a beneficial role in various inflammatory pathologies. Exploring the potential of HDAC3 inhibition to improve disease prognosis is a promising avenue requiring further investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the roles of HDAC1/2 and HDAC3 in adult Meibomian gland (MG) homeostasis. METHODS HDAC1/2 or HDAC3 were inducibly deleted in MG epithelial cells of adult mice. The morphology of MG was examined. Proliferation, apoptosis, and expression of MG acinus and duct marker genes, meibocyte differentiation genes, and HDAC target genes, were analyzed via immunofluorescence, TUNEL assay, and RNA in situ hybridization. RESULTS Co-deletion of HDAC1/2 in MG epithelium caused gradual loss of acini and formation of cyst-like structures in the central duct. These phenotypes required homozygous deletion of both HDAC1 and HDAC2, indicating that they function redundantly in the adult MG. Short-term deletion of HDAC1/2 in MG epithelium had little effect on meibocyte maturation but caused decreased proliferation of acinar basal cells, excessive DNA damage, ectopic apoptosis, and increased p53 acetylation and p16 expression in the MG. By contrast, HDAC3 deletion in MG epithelium caused dilation of central duct, atrophy of acini, defective meibocyte maturation, increased acinar basal cell proliferation, and ectopic apoptosis and DNA damage. Levels of p53 acetylation and p21 expression were elevated in HDAC3-deficient MGs, while the expression of the differentiation regulator PPARγ and the differentiation markers PLIN2 and FASN was downregulated. CONCLUSIONS HDAC1 and HDAC2 function redundantly in adult Meibomian gland epithelial progenitor cells and are essential for their proliferation and survival, but not for acinar differentiation, while HDAC3 is required to limit acinar progenitor cell proliferation and permit differentiation. HDAC1/2 and HDAC3 have partially overlapping roles in maintaining survival of MG cells.

Abstract
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) refers to the transformation of polar epithelial cells into motile mesenchymal cells under specific physiological or pathological conditions, thus promoting the metastasis of cancer cells. Epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin) is a protein that plays an important role in the acquisition of tumor cell motility and serves as a key EMT epithelial marker. In the present study, AW01178, a small-molecule compound with potential therapeutic efficacy, was identified via in-cell Western high-throughput screening technology using E-cadherin as the target. The compound induced the upregulation of E-cadherin at both mRNA and protein levels and inhibited the EMT of breast cancer cells in vitro as well as metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, AW01178 is a novel benzacetamide histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) mainly targeting class I histone deacetylases. AW01178 promoted the transcription and expression of E-cadherin through enhancing the acetylation level of histone H3 in the E-cadherin promoter region, thereby inhibiting the metastasis of breast cancer cells. The collective findings support the potential utility of the novel HDACi compound identified in this study, AW01178, as a therapeutic drug for breast cancer and highlight its value for the future development of HDACi structures as anticancer drugs.

An assessment of crucial structural contributors of HDAC6 inhibitors through fragment-based non-linear pattern recognition and molecular dynamics simulation approaches. Comput Biol Chem 2024; 110:108051. [PMID: 38520883 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiolchem.2024.108051] [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: 12/31/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Amidst the Zn2+-dependant isoforms of the HDAC family, HDAC6 has emerged as a potential target associated with an array of diseases, especially cancer and neuronal disorders like Rett's Syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, etc. Also, despite the availability of a handful of HDAC inhibitors in the market, their non-selective nature has restricted their use in different disease conditions. In this situation, the development of selective and potent HDAC6 inhibitors will provide efficacious therapeutic agents to treat different diseases. In this context, this study has been carried out to evaluate the potential structural contributors of quinazoline-cap-containing HDAC6 inhibitors via machine learning (ML), conventional classification-dependant QSAR, and MD simulation-based binding mode of interaction analysis toward HDAC6 binding. This combined conventional and modern molecular modeling study has revealed the significance of the quinazoline moiety, substitutions present at the quinazoline cap group, as well as the importance of molecular property, number of hydrogen bond donor-acceptor functions, carbon-chlorine distance that significantly affects the HDAC6 binding of these inhibitors, subsequently affecting their potency . Interestingly, the study also revealed that the substitutions such as the chloroethyl group, and bulky quinazolinyl cap group can affect the binding of the cap function with the amino acid residues present in the loops proximal to the catalytic site of HDAC6. Such contributions of cap groups can lead to both stabilization and destabilization of the cap function after occupying the hydrophobic catalytic site by the aryl hydroxamate linker-ZBG functions.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4), a class IIa HDAC, has gained attention as a potential therapeutic target in treating inflammatory and metabolic processes based on its essential role in various biological pathways by deacetylating non-histone proteins, including transcription factors. The activity of HDAC4 is regulated at the transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and post-translational levels. The functions of HDAC4 are tissue-dependent in response to endogenous and exogenous factors and their substrates. In particular, the association of HDAC4 with non-histone targets, including transcription factors, such as myocyte enhancer factor 2, hypoxia-inducible factor, signal transducer and activator of transcription 1, and forkhead box proteins, play a crucial role in regulating inflammatory and metabolic processes. This review summarizes the regulatory modes of HDAC4 activity and its functions in inflammation, insulin signaling and glucose metabolism, and cardiac muscle development.

Abstract
The microbiome is an integral part of the human gut, and it plays a crucial role in the development of the immune system and homeostasis. Apart from the gut microbiome, the airway microbial community also forms a distinct and crucial part of the human microbiota. Furthermore, several studies indicate the existence of communication between the gut microbiome and their metabolites with the lung airways, called "gut-lung axis". Perturbations in gut microbiota composition, termed dysbiosis, can have acute and chronic effects on the pathophysiology of lung diseases. Microbes and their metabolites in lung stimulate various innate immune pathways, which modulate the expression of the inflammatory genes in pulmonary leukocytes. For instance, gut microbiota-derived metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids can suppress lung inflammation through the activation of G protein-coupled receptors (free fatty acid receptors) and can also inhibit histone deacetylase, which in turn influences the severity of acute and chronic respiratory diseases. Thus, modulation of the gut microbiome composition through probiotic/prebiotic usage and fecal microbiota transplantation can lead to alterations in lung homeostasis and immunity. The resulting manipulation of immune cells function through microbiota and their key metabolites paves the way for the development of novel therapeutic strategies in improving the lung health of individuals affected with various lung diseases including SARS-CoV-2. This review will shed light upon the mechanistic aspect of immune system programming through gut and lung microbiota and exploration of the relationship between gut-lung microbiome and also highlight the therapeutic potential of gut microbiota-derived metabolites in the management of respiratory diseases.

Abstract
The production of type I interferon (IFN) is precisely modulated by host to protect against viral infection efficiently without obvious immune disorders. Elucidating the tight control towards type I IFN production would be helpful to get insight into natural immunity and inflammatory diseases. As yet, however, the mechanisms that regulate IFN-β production, especially the epigenetic regulatory mechanisms, remain poorly explored. This study elucidated the potential function of Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADIs)-mediated citrullination in innate immunity. We identified PADI4, a PADIs family member that can act as an epigenetic coactivator, could repress IFN-β production upon RNA virus infection. Detailed experiments showed that PADI4 deficiency increased IFN-β production and promoted antiviral immune activities against RNA viruses. Mechanistically, the increased PADI4 following viral infection translocated to nucleus and recruited HDAC1 upon binding to Ifnb1 promoter, which then led to the deacetylation of histone H3 and histone H4 for repressing Ifnb1 transcription. Taken together, we identify a novel non-classical role for PADI4 in the regulation of IFN-β production, suggesting its potential as treatment target in inflammatory or autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Cryptosporidium is an opportunistic protozoan, with many species of cross-human infectivity. It causes life-threatening diarrhoea in children and CD4-defective patients. Despite its limited efficacy, nitazoxanide remains the primary anti-cryptosporidial drug. Cryptosporidium infects the intestinal brush border (intracellular-extracytoplasmic) and down-regulates pyroptosis to prevent expulsion. Romidepsin is a natural histone deacetylase inhibitor that triggers pyroptosis. Romidepsin's effect on cryptosporidiosis was assessed in immunocompromised mice via gasdermin-D (GSDM-D) immunohistochemical expression, IFN-γ, IL-1β and IL-18 blood levels by ELISA, and via parasite scanning by modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Oocyst deformity and local cytokines were also assessed in ex vivo ileal explants. Following intraperitoneal injection of romidepsin, oocyst shedding significantly reduced at the 9th, 12th and 15th d.p.i. compared with infected-control and drug-control (nitazoxanide-treated) mice. H&E staining of intestinal sections from romidepsin-treated mice showed significantly low intestinal scoring with marked reduction in epithelial hyperplasia, villous blunting and cellular infiltrate. SEM revealed marked oocyst blebbing and paucity (in vivo and ex vivo) after romidepsin compared with nitazoxanide. Regarding pyroptosis, romidepsin triggered significantly higher intestinal GSDM-D expression in vivo, and higher serum/culture IFN-γ, IL-1β and IL-18 levels in romidepsin-treated mice than in the control groups. Collectively, in cryptosporidiosis, romidepsin succeeded in enhancing pyroptosis in the oocysts and infected epithelium, reducing infection and shifting the brush border towards normalisation.

Abstract
Eukaryotes respond to secreted metabolites from the microbiome. However, little is known about the effects of exposure to volatiles emitted by microbes or in the environment that we are exposed to over longer durations. Using Drosophila melanogaster, we evaluated a yeast-emitted volatile, diacetyl, found at high levels around fermenting fruits where they spend long periods of time. Exposure to the diacetyl molecules in headspace alters gene expression in the antenna. In vitro experiments demonstrated that diacetyl and structurally related volatiles inhibited conserved histone deacetylases (HDACs), increased histone-H3K9 acetylation in human cells, and caused changes in gene expression in both Drosophila and mice. Diacetyl crosses the blood-brain barrier and exposure caused modulation of gene expression in the mouse brain, therefore showing potential as a neuro-therapeutic. Using two separate disease models previously known to be responsive to HDAC inhibitors, we evaluated the physiological effects of volatile exposure. Diacetyl exposure halted proliferation of a neuroblastoma cell line in culture. Exposure to diacetyl vapors slowed progression of neurodegeneration in a Drosophila model for Huntington's disease. These changes strongly suggest that certain volatiles in the surroundings can have profound effects on histone acetylation, gene expression, and physiology in animals.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly aggressive primary brain tumor associated with limited treatment options and high drug resistance, presenting significant challenges in the pursuit of effective treatment strategies. Epigenetic modifications have emerged as promising diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for GBM. For instance, histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) has been identified as a potential pharmacological target for GBM. Furthermore, the overexpression of monoamine oxidase A (MAO A) in glioma has been linked to tumor progression, making it an attractive target for therapy. In this study, we successfully engineered HDAC-MB, an activatable multifunctional small-molecule probe with the goal of efficiently detecting and killing glioma cells. HDAC-MB can be selectively activated by HDAC6, leading to the "turn on" of near-infrared fluorescence and effective inhibition of MAO A, along with potent photodynamic therapy (PDT) effects. Consequently, HDAC-MB not only enables the imaging of HDAC6 in live glioma cells but also exhibits the synergistic effect of MAO A inhibition and PDT, effectively inhibiting glioma invasion and inducing cellular apoptosis. The distinctive combination of features displayed by HDAC-MB positions it as a versatile and highly effective tool for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of glioma cells. This opens up opportunities to enhance therapy outcomes and explore future applications in glioma theranostics.

[PMID: 38396794 PMCID: PMC10889099 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25042117] [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: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 02/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Rosavin, a phenylpropanoid in Rhodiola rosea's rhizome, and an adaptogen, is known for enhancing the body's response to environmental stress. It significantly affects cellular metabolism in health and many diseases, particularly influencing bone tissue metabolism. In vitro, rosavin inhibits osteoclastogenesis, disrupts F-actin ring formation, and reduces the expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes such as cathepsin K, calcitonin receptor (CTR), tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), and matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9). It also impedes the nuclear factor of activated T-cell cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1), c-Fos, the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways and blocks phosphorylation processes crucial for bone resorption. Moreover, rosavin promotes osteogenesis and osteoblast differentiation and increases mouse runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and osteocalcin (OCN) expression. In vivo studies show its effectiveness in enhancing bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) mice, restraining osteoclast maturation, and increasing the active osteoblast percentage in bone tissue. It modulates mRNA expressions by increasing eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 (EEF2) and decreasing histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1), thereby activating osteoprotective epigenetic mechanisms, and alters many serum markers, including decreasing cross-linked C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-1), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP5b), receptor activator for nuclear factor κ B ligand (RANKL), macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), and TRAP, while increasing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and OCN. Additionally, when combined with zinc and probiotics, it reduces pro-osteoporotic matrix metallopeptidase 3 (MMP-3), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and enhances anti-osteoporotic interleukin 10 (IL-10) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP3) expressions. This paper aims to systematically review rosavin's impact on bone tissue metabolism, exploring its potential in osteoporosis prevention and treatment, and suggesting future research directions.

Abstract
HDAC inhibitors, which can inhibit the activity of HDAC enzymes, have been extensively studied in tumor immunotherapy and have shown potential therapeutic effects in cancer immunotherapy. To date, numerous small molecule HDAC inhibitors have been identified, but many of them suffer from limited clinical efficacy and serious toxicity. Hence, HDAC inhibitor-based combination therapies, and other HDAC modulators (e.g. PROTAC degraders, dual-acting agents) have attracted great attention with significant advancements achieved in the past few years due to their superior efficacy compared to single-target HDAC inhibitors. In this review, we overviewed the recent progress on HDAC-based drug discovery with a focus on HDAC inhibitor-based drug combination therapy and other HDAC-targeting strategies (e.g. selective HDAC inhibitors, HDAC-based dual-target inhibitors, and PROTAC HDAC degraders) for cancer immunotherapy. In addition, we also summarized the reported co-crystal structures of HDAC inhibitors in complex with their target proteins and the binding interactions. Finally, the challenges and future directions for HDAC-based drug discovery in cancer immunotherapy are also discussed in detail.

Abstract
A monolayer of endothelial cells (ECs) lines the lumen of blood vessels and, as such, provides a semi-selective barrier between the blood and the interstitial space. Compromise of the lung EC barrier due to inflammatory or toxic events may result in pulmonary edema, which is a cardinal feature of acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The EC functions are controlled, at least in part, via epigenetic mechanisms mediated by histone deacetylases (HDACs). Zinc-dependent HDACs represent the largest group of HDACs and are activated by Zn2+. Members of this HDAC group are involved in epigenetic regulation primarily by modifying the structure of chromatin upon removal of acetyl groups from histones. In addition, they can deacetylate many non-histone histone proteins, including those located in extranuclear compartments. Recently, the therapeutic potential of inhibiting zinc-dependent HDACs for EC barrier preservation has gained momentum. However, the role of specific HDAC subtypes in EC barrier regulation remains largely unknown. This review aims to provide an update on the role of zinc-dependent HDACs in endothelial dysfunction and its related diseases. We will broadly focus on biological contributions, signaling pathways and transcriptional roles of HDACs in endothelial pathobiology associated mainly with lung diseases, and we will discuss the potential of their inhibitors for lung injury prevention.

Abstract
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infections pose a global public health challenge. Despite extensive research on this disease, the intricate mechanisms underlying persistent HBV infection require further in-depth elucidation. Recent studies have revealed the pivotal roles of immunometabolism and epigenetic reprogramming in chronic HBV infection. Immunometabolism have identified as the process, which link cell metabolic status with innate immunity functions in response to HBV infection, ultimately contributing to the immune system's inability to resolve Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB). Within hepatocytes, HBV replication leads to a stable viral covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) minichromosome located in the nucleus, and epigenetic modifications in cccDNA enable persistence of infection. Additionally, the accumulation or depletion of metabolites not only directly affects the function and homeostasis of immune cells but also serves as a substrate for regulating epigenetic modifications, subsequently influencing the expression of antiviral immune genes and facilitating the occurrence of sustained HBV infection. The interaction between immunometabolism and epigenetic modifications has led to a new research field, known as metabolic epigenomics, which may form a mutually reinforcing relationship with CHB. Herein, we review the recent studies on immunometabolism and epigenetic reprogramming in CHB infection and discuss the potential mechanisms of persistent HBV infection. A deeper understanding of these mechanisms will offer novel insights and targets for intervention strategies against chronic HBV infection, thereby providing new hope for the treatment of related diseases.

Abstract
Epilepsy is one of the most common brain disorders that not only causes death worldwide, but also affects the daily lives of patients. Previous studies have revealed that inflammation plays an important role in the pathophysiology of epilepsy. Activation of inflammasomes can promote neuroinflammation by boosting the maturation of caspase-1 and the secretion of various inflammatory effectors, including chemokines, interleukins, and tumor necrosis factors. With the in-depth research on the mechanism of inflammasomes in the development of epilepsy, it has been discovered that NLRP3 inflammasomes may induce epilepsy by mediating neuronal inflammatory injury, neuronal loss and blood-brain barrier dysfunction. Therefore, blocking the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasomes may be a new epilepsy treatment strategy. However, the drugs that specifically block NLRP3 inflammasomes assembly has not been approved for clinical use. In this review, the mechanism of how HDACs, an inflammatory regulator, regulates the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome is summarized. It helps to explore the mechanism of the HDAC inhibitors inhibiting brain inflammatory damage so as to provide a potential therapeutic strategy for controlling the development of epilepsy.

Abstract
The significance of gut microbiome and their metabolites (postbiotics) on human health could be a promising approach to treat various diseases that includes inflammatory bowel diseases, colon cancer, and many neurological disorders. Probiotics with potential mental health benefits (psychobiotics) can alter the gut-brain axis via immunological, humoral, neuronal, and metabolic pathways. Recently, probiotic bacteria like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium have been demonstrated for SCFAs production, which play a crucial role in a variety of diseases. These acids could enhance the production of mucins, antimicrobial proteins (bacteriocins and peptides), cytokines (Interleukin 10 and 18) and neurotransmitters (serotonin) in the intestine to main the gut microbiota, intestinal barrier system and other immune functions. In this review, we discuss about two mechanisms such as (i) SCFAs mediated intestinal barrier system, and (ii) SCFAs mediated gut-brain axis to elucidate the therapeutic options for the treatment/prevention of various diseases.

Abstract
Chronic pancreatitis (CP) as a progressive inflammatory disorder, remains untreatable. The novel treatment strategy for CP is imperative. We attempted to explore the therapeutic biomarkers for CP. The single-cell sequencing data were retrieved from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in idiopathic CP were identified, followed by function and pathway annotation, and PPI network established. DEGs of interest were verified in human tissue samples. The function of candidate biomarker was determined in the murine model with CP. A total of 208 genes were specially differentially expressed in idiopathic patients. Functional enrichment analysis showed DEGs were mainly enriched in glycogen catabolic process, RNA splicing, and glucagon signaling pathway. A PPI network centered on HDAC1 was constructed. HDAC1 was overexpressed in CP patients. The murine model with CP was induced by repetitive cerulein treatment. Silencing sh-HDAC1 treatment reversed cerulein-induced inflammatory cells accumulation, high expression of TGF-β1, and collagen 1 in pancreas in vivo. HDAC1 might be served as potential biomarker for CP. The present study provided insights into the molecular mechanism of CP that may be useful in further investigations.

Abstract
Eukaryotes are often exposed to microbes and respond to their secreted metabolites, such as the microbiome in animals or commensal bacteria in roots. Little is known about the effects of long-term exposure to volatile chemicals emitted by microbes, or other volatiles that we are exposed to over a long duration. Using the model system Drosophila melanogaster, we evaluate a yeast emitted volatile, diacetyl, found in high levels around fermenting fruits where they spend long periods of time. We find that exposure to just the headspace containing the volatile molecules can alter gene expression in the antenna. Experiments showed that diacetyl and structurally related volatile compounds inhibited human histone-deacetylases (HDACs), increased histone-H3K9 acetylation in human cells, and caused wide changes in gene expression in both Drosophila and mice. Diacetyl crosses the blood-brain barrier and exposure causes modulation of gene expression in the brain, therefore has potential as a therapeutic. Using two separate disease models known to be responsive to HDAC-inhibitors, we evaluated physiological effects of volatile exposure. First, we find that the HDAC inhibitor also halts proliferation of a neuroblastoma cell line in culture as predicted. Next, exposure to vapors slows progression of neurodegeneration in a Drosophila model for Huntington's disease. These changes strongly suggest that unbeknown to us, certain volatiles in the surroundings can have profound effects on histone acetylation, gene expression and physiology in animals.

Abstract
Various studies have shown that cytokines are important regulators in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In synovial inflammation alteration of the enzyme HDAC, IMPDH enzyme, mTOR pathway, and JAK pathway increase cytokine level. These increased cytokine levels are responsible for the inflammation in RA. Inflammation is a physiological and normal reaction of the immune system against dangerous stimuli such as injury and infection. The cytokine-based approach improves the treatment of RA. To reach this goal, various researchers and scientists are working more aggressively by using a combination approach. The present review of combination therapy provides essential evidence about the possible synergistic effect of combinatorial agents. We have focused on the effects of HDAC inhibitor with IMPDH inhibitor and mTOR inhibitor with JAK inhibitor in combination for the treatment of RA. Combining various targeted strategies can be helpful for the treatment of RA.

Abstract
Low-grade chronic inflammation, also known as metabolic inflammation, promotes the development of metabolic diseases. Increasing evidence suggests that changes in gut microbes and metabolites disrupt the integrity of the gut barrier and exert significant effects on the metabolism of various tissues, including the liver and adipose tissue, thereby contributing to metabolic inflammation. We observed that IL-22 is a key signaling molecule that serves as a bridge between intestinal microbes and the host, effectively alleviating metabolic inflammation by modulating the host immunomodulatory network. Here, we focused on elucidating the underlying mechanisms by which the gut microbiota and their metabolites reduce inflammation via IL-22, highlighting the favorable impact of IL-22 on metabolic inflammation. Furthermore, we discuss the potential of IL-22 as a therapeutic target for the management of metabolic inflammation and related diseases.

Abstract
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are metabolites produced by gut bacteria and play a crucial role in various inflammatory diseases. Increasing evidence suggests that SCFAs can improve the occurrence and progression of atherosclerosis. However, the molecular mechanisms through which SCFAs regulate the development of atherosclerosis have not been fully elucidated. This review provides an overview of the research progress on SCFAs regarding their impact on the risk factors and pathogenesis associated with atherosclerosis, with a specific focus on their interactions with the endothelium and immune cells. These interactions encompass the inflammation and oxidative stress of endothelial cells, the migration of monocytes/macrophages, the lipid metabolism of macrophages, the proliferation and migration of smooth muscle cells, and the proliferation and differentiation of Treg cells. Nevertheless, the current body of research is insufficient to comprehensively understand the full spectrum of SCFAs' mechanisms of action. Therefore, further in-depth investigations are imperative to establish a solid theoretical foundation for the development of clinical therapeutics in this context.

Abstract
The high structural homology of histone deacetylases 6 and 8 (HDAC6/8) poses a challenge in achieving isoform selectivity and has resulted in adverse side effects due to pan-inhibition in clinical applications. Additionally, the rational design of dual-target inhibitors, centered on HDAC6/8, demands a profound understanding of their selectivity mechanisms. Addressing the urgent need for enhanced specificity in the development of inhibitors targeting specific isoforms, we elucidate the mechanism underpinning the selective inhibition of HDAC6/8 inhibitors through in-silico strategies. The hydrogen bonding interaction with Asp101 and Tyr306 is a key factor that enables compound 12b to selectively inhibit HDAC8. Its favorable spatial orientation places the Cap group of 12b between Tyr306 and Tyr100, resulting in an overall L-shaped conformation. These two factors significantly contribute to the selective inhibitory activity of 12b against HDAC8. The zinc binding group (ZBG) of compound NN-390 forms a hydrogen bond with His610, a key residue of HDAC6, facilitating stable chelation with zinc ions. In addition, the Cap group of NN-390 interacts with Phe620 and Phe680 via van der Waals forces, leading to an overall Y-shaped conformation. The aforementioned factors are the main reasons for the selective inhibition of HDAC6 by NN-390. Furthermore, whether the Cap group is in the para or meta-position will influence the selective inhibition of either HDAC6 or HDAC8. We believe these clues can offer valuable insights for the rational design of selective inhibitors targeting HDAC6/8 and pave the way for rational design of dual-target HDAC6/8-based inhibitors.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) has been implicated in cardiac diseases, while the role of HDAC6 in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains obscure. The in silico analyses predicted potential association of HDAC6 with autophagy-related genes and DCM. Thus, we evaluated the functional relevance of HDAC6 in DCM in vivo and in vitro. We developed a rat model in vivo and a cell model in vitro by doxorubicin (DOX) induction to simulate DCM. HDAC6 expression was determined in myocardial tissues of DCM rats. DCM rats exhibited elevated HDAC6 mRNA and protein expression as compared to sham-operated rats. We knocked HDAC6 down and/or overexpressed NLRP3 in vivo and in vitro to characterize their roles in cardiomyocyte autophagy. It was established that shRNA-mediated HDAC6 silencing augmented cardiomyocyte autophagy and suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome activation, thus ameliorating cardiac injury in myocardial tissues of DCM rats. Besides, in DOX-injured cardiomyocytes, HDAC6 silencing also diminished NLRP3 inflammasome activation and cell apoptosis but enhanced cell autophagy, whereas ectopic NLRP3 expression negated the effects of HDAC6 silencing. Since HDAC6 knockdown correlates with enhanced cardiomyocyte autophagy and suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome activation through an interplay with NLRP3, it is expected to be a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for DCM. 1. HDAC6 was up-regulated in DCM rats. 2. HDAC6 knockdown promoted cardiomyocyte autophagy to relieve cardiac dysfunction. 3. HDAC6 knockdown inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome and promoted cardiomyocyte autophagy. 4. Silencing HDAC6 promoted autophagy and repressed apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. 5. This study provides novel therapeutic targets for DCM.

Abstract
Because the overexpression of histone deacetylase enzymes (HDACs) has been linked to numerous diseases, including various cancers and neurodegenerative disorders, HDAC inhibitors have emerged as promising therapeutic agents. However, most HDAC inhibitors lack both subclass and isoform selectivity, which leads to potential toxicity. Unlike classical hydroxamate HDAC inhibitors, slow-binding HDAC inhibitors form tight and prolonged bonds with HDAC enzymes. This distinct mechanism of action improves both selectivity and toxicity profiles, which makes slow-binding HDAC inhibitors a promising class of therapeutic agents for various diseases. Therefore, the development of slow-binding HDAC inhibitors that can effectively target a wide range of HDAC isoforms is crucial. This Perspective provides valuable insights into the potential and progress of slow-binding HDAC inhibitors as promising drug candidates for the treatment of various diseases.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play a crucial role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression by remodelling chromatin. Isoenzymes of the HDAC family exhibit aberrant regulation in a wide variety of cancers as well as several inflammatory lung disorders like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Inhibition of HDACs is a potential therapeutic strategy that could be used to reverse epigenetic modification. Trichostatin A (TSA), a powerful histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, has anti-cancer effects in numerous cancer types. However, it is not yet apparent how HDAC inhibitors affect human non-small cell lung cancer cells (NSCLC) and COPD. This study aims to investigate TSA's role in restoring mitochondrial dysfunction and its effect on hypoxia and inflammation in CD4+T cells obtained from patients with COPD and lung cancer. As a result of treatment with TSA, there is a reduction in the expression of inflammatory cytokines and a decreased enrichment of transcriptional factors associated with inflammation at VEGFA gene loci. We have seen a substantial decrease in the expression of NF-κB and HIF1α, which are the critical mediators of inflammation and hypoxia, respectively. Following TSA treatment, mtTFA expression was increased, facilitating patients with COPD and NSCLC in the recovery of their dysfunctional mitochondria. Furthermore, we have discovered that TSA treatment in patients with COPD and NSCLC may lead to immunoprotective ness by inducing Th1ness. Our finding gives a new insight into the existing body of knowledge regarding TSA-based therapeutic methods and highlights the necessity of epigenetic therapy for these devastating lung disorders.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) and nuclear receptor co-repressor (NCoR1/2) are epigenetic regulators that play a key role in gene expression and metabolism. HDAC3 is a class I histone deacetylase that functions as a transcriptional co-repressor, modulating gene expression by removing acetyl groups from histones and non-histone proteins. NCoR1, on the other hand, is a transcriptional co-repressor that interacts with nuclear hormone receptors, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and liver X receptor (LXR), to regulate metabolic gene expression. Recent research has revealed a functional link between HDAC3 and NCoR1 in the regulation of metabolic gene expression. Genetic deletion of HDAC3 in mouse models has been shown to improve glucose intolerance and insulin sensitivity in the liver, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue. Similarly, genetic deletion of NCoR1 has improved insulin resistance and reduced adiposity in mouse models. Dysregulation of this interaction has been associated with the development of cardio-metabolic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, obesity and type 2 diabetes, suggesting that targeting this pathway may hold promise for the development of novel therapeutic interventions. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of individual functions of HDAC3 and NCoR1/2 and the co-repressor complex formation (HDAC3/NCoR1/2) in different metabolic tissues. Further studies are needed to thoroughly understand the mechanisms through which HDAC3, and NCoR1/2 govern metabolic processes and the implications for treating metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Histone modifications control numerous processes in eukaryotes, including inflammation. Some bacterial pathogens alter the activity or expression of host-derived factors, including sirtuins, to modify histones and induce responses that promote infection. In this study, we identified a deacetylase encoded by Campylobacter jejuni which has sirtuin activities and contributes to activation of human neutrophils by the pathogen. This sirtuin is secreted from the bacterium into neutrophils, where it associates with and deacetylates host histones to promote neutrophil activation and extracellular trap production. Using the murine model of campylobacteriosis, we found that a mutant of this bacterial sirtuin efficiently colonized the gastrointestinal tract but was unable to induce cytokine production, gastrointestinal inflammation, and tissue pathology. In conclusion, these results suggest that secreted bacterial sirtuins represent a previously unreported class of bacterial effector and that bacterial-mediated modification of host histones is responsible for the inflammation and pathology that occurs during campylobacteriosis.

Abstract
Dysregulation of iron metabolism in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is a significant risk factor for hepatic cirrhosis and cancer. We studied if known genetic variants related to iron homeostasis associate with liver disease progression in CHC. Retrospective analysis included 249 CHC patients qualified for antiviral therapy between 2004 and 2014. For all patients, nine SNPs within HFE, TFR2, HDAC2, HDAC3, HDAC5, TMPRSS6, and CYBRD1 genes were genotyped. Expression of selected iron-related genes, was determined with qRT-PCR in 124 liver biopsies, and mRNA expression of co-inhibitory receptors (PD-1, Tim3, CTLA4) was measured in 79 liver samples. CYBRD1 rs884409, HDAC5 rs368328, TFR2 rs7385804, and TMPRSS6 rs855791 associated with histopathological changes in liver tissue at baseline. The combination of minor allele in HDAC3 rs976552 and CYBRD1 rs884409 linked with higher prevalence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) during follow up (OR 8.1 CI 2.2-29.2; p = 0.001). Minor allele in HDAC3 rs976552 associated with lower hepatic expression of CTLA4. Tested polymorphisms related to iron homeostasis associate with histopathological changes in the liver. The presence of both HDAC3 rs976552 G and CYBRD1 rs884409 G alleles correlates with HCC occurrence, especially in the group of patients with elevated AST (>129 IU/L). rs976552 in HDAC3 could impact immunological processes associated with carcinogenesis in CHC.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) catalyse removal of acetyl groups from lysine residues on both histone and non-histone proteins to control numerous cellular processes. Of the 11 zinc-dependent classical HDACs, HDAC4, 5, 7 and 9 are class IIa HDAC enzymes that regulate cellular and developmental processes through both enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms. Over the last two decades, HDAC7 has been associated with key roles in numerous physiological and pathological processes. Molecular, cellular, in vivo and disease association studies have revealed that HDAC7 acts through multiple mechanisms to control biological processes in immune cells, osteoclasts, muscle, the endothelium and epithelium. This HDAC protein regulates gene expression, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell survival and consequently controls development, angiogenesis, immune functions, inflammation and metabolism. This review focuses on the cell biology of HDAC7, including the regulation of its cellular localisation and molecular mechanisms of action, as well as its associative and causal links with cancer and inflammatory, metabolic and fibrotic diseases. We also review the development status of small molecule inhibitors targeting HDAC7 and their potential for intervention in different disease contexts.

Abstract
Leishmania infantum causes visceral leishmaniosis, a neglected tropical disease that can modulate the host immune response by altering the expression of small non-coding RNAs called microRNAs (miRNAs). Some miRNAs are differentially expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of dogs with canine visceral leishmaniosis (CanL), like the down-regulated miR-150. Even though miR-150 is negatively correlated with L. infantum parasitic load, it is unclear if miR-150 directly affects L. infantum parasitic load and (if so) how this miRNA would contribute to infection. Here, we isolated PBMCs from 14 naturally infected dogs (CanL group) and six healthy dogs (Control group) and treated them in vitro with miR-150 mimic or inhibitor. We measured L. infantum parasitic load using qPCR and compared treatments. We also measured miR-150 in silico predicted target protein levels (STAT1, TNF-α, HDAC8, and GZMB) using flow cytometry or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Increasing miR-150 activity diminished L. infantum parasitic load in CanL PBMCs. We also found that inhibition of miR-150 reduced GZMB (granzyme B) levels. These findings demonstrate that miR-150 plays an important role in L. infantum infection in canine PBMCs, and they merit further studies aiming at drug development.

Gut Microbiota and Cardiovascular Disease: Evidence on the Metabolic and Inflammatory Background of a Complex Relationship. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24109087. [PMID: 37240434 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24109087] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2023] [Revised: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/12/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Several studies in recent years have demonstrated that gut microbiota-host interactions play an important role in human health and disease, including inflammatory and cardiovascular diseases. Dysbiosis has been linked to not only well-known inflammatory diseases, such as inflammatory bowel diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematous, but also to cardiovascular risk factors, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, obesity, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The ways the microbiota is involved in modulating cardiovascular risk are multiple and not only related to inflammatory mechanisms. Indeed, human and the gut microbiome cooperate as a metabolically active superorganism, and this affects host physiology through metabolic pathways. In turn, congestion of the splanchnic circulation associated with heart failure, edema of the intestinal wall, and altered function and permeability of the intestinal barrier result in the translocation of bacteria and their products into the systemic circulation, further enhancing the pro-inflammatory conditions underlying cardiovascular disorders. The aim of the present review is to describe the complex interplay between gut microbiota, its metabolites, and the development and evolution of cardiovascular diseases. We also discuss the possible interventions intended to modulate the gut microbiota to reduce cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Recent studies on genetically susceptible individuals and animal models revealed the potential role of the intestinal microbiota in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D) through complex interactions with the immune system. T1D incidence has been increasing exponentially with modern lifestyle altering normal microbiota composition, causing dysbiosis characterized by an imbalance in the gut microbial community. Dysbiosis has been suggested to be a potential contributing factor in T1D. Moreover, several studies have shown the potential role of probiotics in regulating T1D through various mechanisms. Current T1D therapies target curative measures; however, preventive therapeutics are yet to be proven. This review highlights immune microbiota interaction and the immense role of probiotics and postbiotics as important immunological interventions for reducing the risk of T1D.

Abstract
Genetic or congenital hearing loss still has no definitive cure. Among genes related to genetic hearing loss, the potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 4 (KCNQ4) is known to play an essential role in maintaining ion homeostasis and regulating hair cell membrane potential. Variants of the KCNQ4 show reductions in the potassium channel activity and were responsible for non-syndromic progressive hearing loss. KCNQ4 has been known to possess a diverse variant. Among those variants, the KCNQ4 p.W276S variant produced greater hair cell loss related to an absence of potassium recycling. Valproic acid (VPA) is an important and commonly used histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor for class I (HDAC1, 2, 3, and 8) and class IIa (HDAC4, 5, 7, and 9). In the current study, systemic injections of VPA attenuated hearing loss and protected the cochlear hair cells from cell death in the KCNQ4 p.W276S mouse model. VPA activated its known downstream target, the survival motor neuron gene, and increased acetylation of histone H4 in the cochlea, demonstrating that VPA treatment directly affects the cochlea. In addition, treatment with VPA increased the KCNQ4 binding with HSP90β by inhibiting HDAC1 activation in HEI-OC1 in an in vitro study. VPA is a candidate drug for inhibiting late-onset progressive hereditary hearing loss from the KCNQ4 p.W276S variant.

Abstract
AIMS Here, we report the effect of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) inhibition associated with macrophage activation, IL-1β expression, angiogenesis and wound healing in diabetic mice. MAIN METHODS To determine the expression of HDAC3 in diabetic mice wounds, hyperglycemia was induced in C57BL/6 mice with streptozotocin followed by induction of 6 mm wounds. To understand the effect of HDAC3 selective inhibitor, BG45, wound tissues were isolated for analysing M1/M2 markers expression, immune cells infiltration, angiogenesis and healing factors expression. CD11b+F4/80+ cells were sorted from the wound tissues and analysed for the expression of M1/M2 markers using RT-qPCR and flow cytometer. In cell based assays, HDAC3 expression was measured in macrophages stimulated with high glucose (HG) plus LPS. Macrophages treated with BG45 and HG + LPS were analysed for the expression of pro-IL-1β, mature IL-1β, oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory (M1) and anti-inflammatory (M2) factors. KEY FINDINGS HDAC3 was found to be upregulated in impaired diabetic mice wounds and in macrophages stimulated with HG + LPS. Topical application of BG45 loaded gel accelerated the wound healing in diabetic mice and was evident by improved expression of Collagen-1A, IL-10, TGF-β, and angiogenesis (CD31, VEGF). BG45 treatment decreased the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 (M1 phenotype), reduced oxidative stress and promoted the expression of Arginase-1 and YM1/2 (M2 phenotype) in macrophages treated with HG + LPS. BG45 also improved the expression of CD11b+F4/80+CD206+ cells in wound tissues and reduced expression of inflammatory markers. SIGNIFICANCE HDAC3 is upregulated in diabetic mice wounds and HDAC3 selective inhibitor promotes the wound healing by regulating macrophage activation, angiogenesis and IL-1β.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Natural killer (NK) cells are a subtype of lymphocytes with the ability to quickly and efficiently identify and eliminate tumor cells. In the presence of IL2, NK cells can divide rapidly but in limited numbers. According to previous studies, in vivo treatment with histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors did not impair NK-cell function. This study aimed to investigate the effect of HDAC inhibitors on NK-cell proliferation and the underlying regulatory mechanism. METHODS NK92 cells, primary NK (pNK) cells, and CD19-CAR-NK92 cells were treated with low concentrations of pan-HDACi Dacinostat (Dac) and Panobinostat (Pan) in the presence of IL2, and Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8), 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU), and flow cytometry assays were used to assess cell proliferation and apoptosis. The expression of granzyme B was detected by immunofluorescence, and the expression of CD107a and NKG2D was determined by flow cytometry. The downstream regulatory genes were identified by RNA-seq, and the "JAK-STAT signaling pathway"- and "Cell cycle signaling pathway"-related genes were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot analysis. The JAK2V617F mouse model was constructed to simulate the upregulation of the JAK2 signaling pathway in vivo, and the NK proliferation was evaluated by flow cytometry. A tumor-bearing nude mouse model was constructed to determine the anti-tumor efficacy of NK92 cells following Dac treatment. RESULTS In the presence of IL2, the proliferation rate of NK92 cells, pNK cells, and CD19-CAR-NK92 cells treated with pan-HDACi Dac and Pan at low nanomolar doses was significantly increased, although cell function was unaffected. Low doses of Dac upregulated the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and enhance the cell cycle via that pathway. In addition, the in vivo experiment in nude mice showed that the capacity of Dac treated NK92 cells to eliminate tumor cells was unaffected. CONCLUSION Low nanomolar doses of Pan-HDACi enhanced IL2-induced NK cell proliferation without compromising the functioning of NK cells.

Abstract
Innate effector cells are immune cells endowed with host protective features and cytotoxic functions. By sensing the tissue environment, innate cells have an important role in regulating the transition from homeostasis to inflammation and the establishment of pathological states, including the onset and development of cancer. The tumor microenvironment induces molecular and functional modifications in innate cells, dampening their capability to initiate and sustain anti-tumor immune responses. Emerging studies clearly showed a contribution of the microbiota in modulating the functions of innate cells in cancer. Commensal microorganisms can not only directly interact with innate cells in the tumor microenvironment but can also exert immunomodulatory features from non-tumor sites through the release of microbial products. The microbiota can mediate the priming of innate cells at mucosal tissues and determine the strength of immune responses mediated by such cells when they migrate to non-mucosal tissues, having an impact on cancer. Finally, several evidences reported a strong contribution of the microbiota in promoting innate immune responses during anti-cancer therapies leading to enhanced therapeutic efficacy. In this review, we considered the current knowledge on the role of the microbiota in shaping host innate immune responses in cancer.

Abstract
Collectively known as psoriatic disease, psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are immune-mediated inflammatory diseases in which patients present with cutaneous and musculoskeletal inflammation. Affecting roughly 2-3% of the world's total population, there remains unmet therapeutic needs in both psoriasis and PsA despite the availability of current immunomodulatory treatments. As a result, patients with psoriatic disease often experience reduced quality of life. Recently, a class of small molecules, commonly investigated as anti-cancer agents, called histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, have been proposed as a new promising anti-inflammatory treatment for immune- and inflammatory-related diseases. In inflammatory diseases, current evidence is derived from studies on diseases like rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and while there are some reports studying psoriasis, data on PsA patients are not yet available. In this review, we provide a brief overview of psoriatic disease, psoriasis, and PsA, as well as HDACs, and discuss the rationale behind the potential use of HDAC inhibitors in the management of persistent inflammation to suggest its possible use in psoriatic disease.

The main protease of SARS-CoV-2 cleaves histone deacetylases and DCP1A, attenuating the immune defense of the interferon-stimulated genes. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:102990.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which causes coronavirus disease 2019, constitutes an emerging human pathogen of zoonotic origin. A critical role in protecting the host against invading pathogens is carried out by interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), the primary effectors of the type I interferon (IFN) response. All coronaviruses studied thus far have to first overcome the inhibitory effects of the IFN/ISG system before establishing efficient viral replication. However, whether SARS-CoV-2 evades IFN antiviral immunity by manipulating ISG activation remains to be elucidated. Here, we show that the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) significantly suppresses the expression and transcription of downstream ISGs driven by IFN-stimulated response elements in a dose-dependent manner, and similar negative regulations were observed in two mammalian epithelial cell lines (simian Vero E6 and human A549). Our analysis shows that to inhibit the ISG production, Mpro cleaves histone deacetylases (HDACs) rather than directly targeting IFN signal transducers. Interestingly, Mpro also abolishes the activity of ISG effector mRNA-decapping enzyme 1a (DCP1A) by cleaving it at residue Q343. In addition, Mpro from different genera of coronaviruses has the protease activity to cleave both HDAC2 and DCP1A, even though the alphacoronaviruse Mpro exhibits weaker catalytic activity in cleaving HDAC2. In conclusion, our findings clearly demonstrate that SARS-CoV-2 Mpro constitutes a critical anti-immune effector that modulates the IFN/ISG system at multiple levels, thus providing a novel molecular explanation for viral immune evasion and allowing for new therapeutic approaches against coronavirus disease 2019 infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Hyperglycemia is a major cause of diabetes and diabetes-related diseases. Sodium butyrate (NaB) is a short-chain fatty acid derivative that produces dietary fiber by anaerobic bacterial fermentation in the large intestine and occurs in foods, such as Parmesan cheese and butter. Butyrate has been shown to prevent obesity, improve insulin sensitivity, and ameliorate dyslipidemia in diet-induced obese mice. Therefore, this study examined the effects and mechanism of NaB on the secretion of inflammatory cytokines induced by high glucose (HG) in THP-1 cells. MATERIALS/METHODS THP-1 cells were used as an in vitro model for HG-induced inflammation. The cells were cultured under normal glycemic or hyperglycemic conditions with or without NaB (0-25 μM). Western blotting and quantitative polymerase chain reaction were used to evaluate the protein and mRNA levels of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, acetylated p65, acetyl CREB-binding protein/p300 (CBP/p300), and p300 using THP-1 cells. Histone acetyltransferase (HAT), histone deacetylase (HDAC), and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion activity were analyzed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS HG significantly upregulated histone acetylation, acetylation levels of p300, NF-κB activation, and inflammatory cytokine release in THP-1 cells. Conversely, the NaB treatment reduced cytokine release and NF-κB activation in HG-treated cells. It also significantly reduced p65 acetylation, CBP/p300 HAT activity, and CBP/p300 gene expression. In addition, NaB decreased the interaction of p300 in acetylated NF-κB and TNF-α. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that NaB suppresses HG-induced inflammatory cytokine production through HAT/HDAC regulation in monocytes. NaB has the potential for preventing and treating diabetes and its related complications.

Abstract
The role of the gut-brain axis in maintaining the brain's and gut's homeostasis has been gradually recognized in recent years. The connection between the gut and the brain takes center stage. In this scenario, the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome promotes inflammatory cell recruitment. It plays a crucial role in coordinating host physiology and immunity. Recent evidence shows how vital the gut-brain axis is for maintaining brain and gut homeostasis. However, more research is needed to determine the precise causal link between changed gut microbiota structure and NLRP3 activation in pathogenic circumstances. This review examines the connection between gut microbiota and the NLRP3 inflammasome. We describe how both dynamically vary in clinical cases and the external factors affecting both. Finally, we suggest that the crosstalk between the gut microbiota and NLRP3 is involved in signaling in the gut-brain axis, which may be a potential pathological mechanism for CNS diseases and intestinal disorders.
