[PMID: 38536494 DOI: 10.1007/s00424-024-02937-w] [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: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/11/2024]
Abstract
Cellular and organism survival depends upon the regulation of pH, which is regulated by highly specialized cell membrane transporters, the solute carriers (SLC) (For a comprehensive list of the solute carrier family members, see: https://www.bioparadigms.org/slc/ ). The SLC4 family of bicarbonate (HCO3-) transporters consists of ten members, sorted by their coupling to either sodium (NBCe1, NBCe2, NBCn1, NBCn2, NDCBE), chloride (AE1, AE2, AE3), or borate (BTR1). The ionic coupling of SLC4A9 (AE4) remains controversial. These SLC4 bicarbonate transporters may be controlled by cellular ionic gradients, cellular membrane voltage, and signaling molecules to maintain critical cellular and systemic pH (acid-base) balance. There are profound consequences when blood pH deviates even a small amount outside the normal range (7.35-7.45). Chiefly, Na+-coupled bicarbonate transporters (NCBT) control intracellular pH in nearly every living cell, maintaining the biological pH required for life. Additionally, NCBTs have important roles to regulate cell volume and maintain salt balance as well as absorption and secretion of acid-base equivalents. Due to their varied tissue expression, NCBTs have roles in pathophysiology, which become apparent in physiologic responses when their expression is reduced or genetically deleted. Variations in physiological pH are seen in a wide variety of conditions, from canonically acid-base related conditions to pathologies not necessarily associated with acid-base dysfunction such as cancer, glaucoma, or various neurological diseases. The membranous location of the SLC4 transporters as well as recent advances in discovering their structural biology makes them accessible and attractive as a druggable target in a disease context. The role of sodium-coupled bicarbonate transporters in such a large array of conditions illustrates the potential of treating a wide range of disease states by modifying function of these transporters, whether that be through inhibition or enhancement.

Abstract
Serum and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1 (SGK1) is a ubiquitously expressed protein belonging to the Ser/Thr kinase family. It regulates diverse physiological processes, including epithelial sodium channel activity, hypertension, cell proliferation, and insulin sensitivity. Due to its significant role in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases, SGK1 can be exploited as a potential therapeutic target to address challenging health problems. SGK1 is associated with the development of obesity, and its overexpression enhances the sodium-glucose co-transporter 1 activity, which absorbs intestinal glucose. This review highlighted the detailed functional significance of SGK1 signaling and role in different diseases and subsequent therapeutic targeting. We aim to provide deeper mechanistic insights into understanding the pathogenesis and recent advancements in the SGK1 targeted drug development process. Small-molecule inhibitors are being developed with excellent binding affinity and improved SGK1 inhibition with desired selectivity. We have discussed small molecule inhibitors designed explicitly as potent SGK1 inhibitors and their therapeutic implications in various diseases. We further addressed the therapeutic potential and mechanism of action of these SGK1 inhibitors and provided a strong scientific foundation for developing effective therapeutics.

Redox differences between rat neonatal and adult cardiomyocytes under hypoxia. Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 211:145-157.

Abstract
It is generally accepted that oxidative stress plays a key role in the development of ischemia-reperfusion injury in ischemic heart disease. However, the mechanisms how reactive oxygen species trigger cellular damage are not fully understood. Our study investigates redox state and highly reactive substances within neonatal and adult cardiomyocytes under hypoxia conditions. We have found that hypoxia induced an increase in H2O2 production in adult cardiomyocytes, while neonatal cardiomyocytes experienced a decrease in H2O2 levels. This finding correlates with our observation of the difference between the electron transport chain (ETC) properties and mitochondria amount in adult and neonatal cells. We demonstrated that in adult cardiomyocytes hypoxia caused the significant increase in the ETC loading with electrons compared to normoxia. On the contrary, in neonatal cardiomyocytes ETC loading with electrons was similar under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions that could be due to ETC non-functional state and the absence of the electrons transfer to O2 under normoxia. In addition to the variations in H2O2 production, we also noted consistent pH dynamics under hypoxic conditions. Notably, the pH levels exhibited a similar decrease in both cell types, thus, acidosis is a more universal cellular response to hypoxia. We also demonstrated that the amount of mitochondria and the levels of cardiac isoforms of troponin I, troponin T, myoglobin and GAPDH were significantly higher in adult cardiomyocytes compared to neonatal ones. Remarkably, we found out that under hypoxia, the levels of cardiac isoforms of troponin T, myoglobin, and GAPDH were elevated in adult cardiomyocytes, while their level in neonatal cells remained unchanged. Obtained data contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms of neonatal cardiomyocytes' resistance to hypoxia and the ability to maintain the metabolic homeostasis in contrast to adult ones.

Abstract
Metabolic disorders of cardiomyocytes play an important role in the progression of various cardiovascular diseases. Metabolic reprogramming can provide ATP to cardiomyocytes and protect them during diseases, but this transformation also leads to adverse consequences such as oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and eventually aggravates myocardial injury. Moreover, abnormal accumulation of metabolites induced by metabolic reprogramming of cardiomyocytes alters the cardiac microenvironment and affects the metabolism of immune cells. Immunometabolism, as a research hotspot, is involved in regulating the phenotype and function of immune cells. After myocardial injury, both cardiac resident immune cells and heart-infiltrating immune cells significantly contribute to the inflammation, repair and remodeling of the heart. In addition, metabolites generated by the metabolic reprogramming of immune cells can further affect the microenvironment, thereby affecting the function of cardiomyocytes and other immune cells. Therefore, metabolic reprogramming and abnormal metabolite levels may serve as a bridge between cardiomyocytes and immune cells, leading to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Herein, we summarize the metabolic relationship between cardiomyocytes and immune cells in cardiovascular diseases, and the effect on cardiac injury, which could be therapeutic strategy for cardiovascular diseases, especially in drug research.

Inward Operation of Sodium-Bicarbonate Cotransporter 1 Promotes Astrocytic Na + Loading and Loss of ATP in Mouse Neocortex during Brief Chemical Ischemia. Cells 2023; 12:2675. [PMID: 38067105 PMCID: PMC10705779 DOI: 10.3390/cells12232675] [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: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Ischemic conditions cause an increase in the sodium concentration of astrocytes, driving the breakdown of ionic homeostasis and exacerbating cellular damage. Astrocytes express high levels of the electrogenic sodium-bicarbonate cotransporter1 (NBCe1), which couples intracellular Na+ homeostasis to regulation of pH and operates close to its reversal potential under physiological conditions. Here, we analyzed its mode of operation during transient energy deprivation via imaging astrocytic pH, Na+, and ATP in organotypic slice cultures of the mouse neocortex, complemented with patch-clamp and ion-selective microelectrode recordings and computational modeling. We found that a 2 min period of metabolic failure resulted in a transient acidosis accompanied by a Na+ increase in astrocytes. Inhibition of NBCe1 increased the acidosis while decreasing the Na+ load. Similar results were obtained when comparing ion changes in wild-type and Nbce1-deficient mice. Mathematical modeling replicated these findings and further predicted that NBCe1 activation contributes to the loss of cellular ATP under ischemic conditions, a result confirmed experimentally using FRET-based imaging of ATP. Altogether, our data demonstrate that transient energy failure stimulates the inward operation of NBCe1 in astrocytes. This causes a significant amelioration of ischemia-induced astrocytic acidification, albeit at the expense of increased Na+ influx and a decline in cellular ATP.

Tanshinone IIA confers protection against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by inhibiting ferroptosis and apoptosis via VDAC1. Int J Mol Med 2023; 52:109.

Abstract
Tanshinone IIA (TSN) extracted from danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) could protect cardiomyocytes against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), however the underlying molecular mechanisms of action remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to identify the protective effects of TSN and its mechanisms of action through in vitro studies. An anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R) injury model was established using H9c2 cells to simulate myocardial IRI in vitro. Before A/R, H9c2 cardiomyoblasts were pretreated with 8 µM TSN or 10 µM ferrostatin‑1 (Fer‑1) or erastin. The cell counting kit 8 (CCK‑8) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay kit were used to detect the cell viability and cytotoxicity. The levels of total iron, glutathione (GSH), glutathione disulfide (GSSG), malondialdehyde (MDA), ferrous iron, caspase‑3 activity, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were assessed using commercial kit. The levels of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), lipid ROS, cell apoptosis, and mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening were detected by flow cytometry. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to observed the mitochondrial damage. Protein levels were detected by western blot analysis. The interaction between TSN and voltage‑dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) was evaluated by molecular docking simulation. The results showed that pretreatment with TSN and Fer‑1 significantly decreased cell viability, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) protein and GSH expression and GSH/GSSG ratio and inhibited upregulation of LDH activity, prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase 2 and VDAC1 protein expression, ROS levels, mitochondrial injury and GSSG induced by A/R. TSN also effectively inhibited the damaging effects of erastin treatment. Additionally, TSN increased MMP and Bcl‑2/Bax ratio, while decreasing levels of apoptotic cells, activating Caspase‑3 and closing the mPTP. These effects were blocked by VDAC1 overexpression and the results of molecular docking simulation studies revealed a direct interaction between TSN and VDAC1. In conclusion, TSN pretreatment effectively attenuated H9c2 cardiomyocyte damage in an A/R injury model and VDAC1‑mediated ferroptosis and apoptosis served a vital role in the protective effects of TSN.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is defined as increased heart mass in response to increased hemodynamic requirements. Long-term cardiac hypertrophy, if not counteracted, will ultimately lead to heart failure. The incidence of heart failure is related to myocardial infarction, which could be salvaged by reperfusion and ultimately invites unfavorable myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. The Na+/H+ exchangers (NHEs) are membrane transporters that exchange one intracellular proton for one extracellular Na+. The first discovered NHE isoform, NHE1, is expressed almost ubiquitously in all tissues, especially in the myocardium. During myocardial ischemia-reperfusion, NHE1 catalyzes increased uptake of intracellular Na+, which in turn leads to Ca2+ overload and subsequently myocardial injury. Numerous preclinical research has shown that NHE1 is involved in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, but the exact molecular mechanisms remain elusive. The objective of this review is to demonstrate the potential role of NHE1 in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure and investigate the underlying mechanisms.
