Liu X, Lu B, Huang H. Investigation of the shared biological mechanisms and common biomarker APTAF1 of sleep deprivation and mild cognitive impairment using integrated bioinformatics analysis. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1387569. [PMID: 38694919 PMCID: PMC11061425 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1387569] [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: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: The relationship between sleep loss and cognitive impairment has long been widely recognized, but there is still a lack of complete understanding of the underlying mechanisms and potential biomarkers. The purpose of this study is to further explore the shared biological mechanisms and common biomarkers between sleep loss and cognitive impairment. Methods: The mitochondria-related genes and gene expression data were downloaded from the MitoCarta3.0 and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. We identified the differentially expressed mitochondrial-related genes by combing the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in sleep deprivation (SD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) datasets with mitochondria-related gene lists. Shared DEGs were then further analyzed for enrichment analysis. Next, the common biomarker was identified using two machine learning techniques and further validated using two independent GEO datasets. Then GSEA and GSVA were conducted to analyze the functional categories and pathways enriched for the common biomarker. Finally, immune infiltration analysis was used to investigate the correlation of immune cell infiltration with the common biomarker in SD and MCI. Results: A total of 32 mitochondrial-related differentially expressed genes were identified in SD and MCI. GO analysis indicated that these genes were significantly enriched for mitochondrial transport, and KEGG analysis showed they were mainly involved in pathways of neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, ATPAF1, which was significantly down-regulated in both SD and MCI, was identified through machine learning algorithms as the common biomarker with favorable diagnostic performance. GSEA and GSVA revealed that ATPAF1 was mainly involved in metabolic pathways, such as oxidative phosphorylation, acetylcholine metabolic process, valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation. Immune infiltration analysis showed that the expression of ATPAF1 was correlated with changes in immune cells, especially those key immune cell types associated with SD and MCI. Discussion: This study firstly revealed that mitochondrial dysfunction may be the common pathogenesis of sleep loss and mild cognitive impairment and identified ATPAF1 as a possible biomarker and therapeutic target involved in SD and MCI.

CHCHD2 Thr61Ile mutation impairs F1F0-ATPase assembly in in vitro and in vivo models of Parkinson's disease. Neural Regen Res 2024; 19:196-204. [PMID: 37488867 PMCID: PMC10479855 DOI: 10.4103/1673-5374.378010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2022] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a significant pathological alteration that occurs in Parkinson's disease (PD), and the Thr61Ile (T61I) mutation in coiled-coil helix coiled-coil helix domain containing 2 (CHCHD2), a crucial mitochondrial protein, has been reported to cause Parkinson's disease. F1F0-ATPase participates in the synthesis of cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and plays a central role in mitochondrial energy metabolism. However, the specific roles of wild-type (WT) CHCHD2 and T61I-mutant CHCHD2 in regulating F1F0-ATPase activity in Parkinson's disease, as well as whether CHCHD2 or CHCHD2 T61I affects mitochondrial function through regulating F1F0-ATPase activity, remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we expressed WT CHCHD2 and T61I-mutant CHCHD2 in an MPP+-induced SH-SY5Y cell model of PD. We found that CHCHD2 protected mitochondria from developing MPP+-induced dysfunction. Under normal conditions, overexpression of WT CHCHD2 promoted F1F0-ATPase assembly, while T61I-mutant CHCHD2 appeared to have lost the ability to regulate F1F0-ATPase assembly. In addition, mass spectrometry and immunoprecipitation showed that there was an interaction between CHCHD2 and F1F0-ATPase. Three weeks after transfection with AAV-CHCHD2 T61I, we intraperitoneally injected 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine into mice to establish an animal model of chronic Parkinson's disease and found that exogenous expression of the mutant protein worsened the behavioral deficits and dopaminergic neurodegeneration seen in this model. These findings suggest that WT CHCHD2 can alleviate mitochondrial dysfunction in PD by maintaining F1F0-ATPase structure and function.

L-Arginine-Loaded Gold Nanocages Ameliorate Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Promoting Nitric Oxide Production and Maintaining Mitochondrial Function. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2023; 10:e2302123.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Reperfusion therapy is vital to patient survival after a heart attack but can cause myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI). Nitric oxide (NO) can ameliorate MI/RI and is a key molecule for drug development. However, reactive oxygen species (ROS) can easily oxidize NO to peroxynitrite, which causes secondary cardiomyocyte damage. Herein, L-arginine-loaded selenium-coated gold nanocages (AAS) are designed, synthesized, and modified with PCM (WLSEAGPVVTVRALRGTGSW) to obtain AASP, which targets cardiomyocytes, exhibits increased cellular uptake, and improves photoacoustic imaging in vitro and in vivo. AASP significantly inhibits oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R)-induced H9C2 cell cytotoxicity and apoptosis. Mechanistic investigation revealed that AASP improves mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), restores ATP synthase activity, blocks ROS generation, and prevents NO oxidation, and NO blocks ROS release by regulating the closing of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). AASP administration in vivo improves myocardial function, inhibits myocardial apoptosis and fibrosis, and ultimately attenuates MI/RI in rats by maintaining mitochondrial function and regulating NO signaling. AASP shows good safety and biocompatibility in vivo. This findings confirm the rational design of AASP, which can provide effective treatment for MI/RI.

Proximity-labeling chemoproteomics defines the subcellular cysteinome and inflammation-responsive mitochondrial redoxome. Cell Chem Biol 2023; 30:811-827.e7. [PMID: 37419112 PMCID: PMC10510412 DOI: 10.1016/j.chembiol.2023.06.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2023] [Revised: 04/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
Proteinaceous cysteines function as essential sensors of cellular redox state. Consequently, defining the cysteine redoxome is a key challenge for functional proteomic studies. While proteome-wide inventories of cysteine oxidation state are readily achieved using established, widely adopted proteomic methods such as OxICAT, Biotin Switch, and SP3-Rox, these methods typically assay bulk proteomes and therefore fail to capture protein localization-dependent oxidative modifications. Here we establish the local cysteine capture (Cys-LoC) and local cysteine oxidation (Cys-LOx) methods, which together yield compartment-specific cysteine capture and quantitation of cysteine oxidation state. Benchmarking of the Cys-LoC method across a panel of subcellular compartments revealed more than 3,500 cysteines not previously captured by whole-cell proteomic analysis. Application of the Cys-LOx method to LPS-stimulated immortalized murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (iBMDM), revealed previously unidentified, mitochondrially localized cysteine oxidative modifications upon pro-inflammatory activation, including those associated with oxidative mitochondrial metabolism.

Abstract
Mitochondrial ATP synthase is a multiprotein complex, which consists of a matrix-localized F1 domain (F1-ATPase) and an inner membrane-embedded Fo domain (Fo-ATPase). The assembly process of mitochondrial ATP synthase is complex and requires the function of many assembly factors. Although extensive studies on mitochondrial ATP synthase assembly have been conducted on yeast, much less study has been performed on plants. Here, we revealed the function of Arabidopsis prohibitin 3 (PHB3) in mitochondrial ATP synthase assembly by characterizing the phb3 mutant. The blue native PAGE (BN-PAGE) and in-gel activity staining assays showed that the activities of ATP synthase and F1-ATPase were significantly decreased in the phb3 mutant. The absence of PHB3 resulted in the accumulation of the Fo-ATPase and F1-ATPase intermediates, whereas the abundance of the Fo-ATPase subunit a was decreased in the ATP synthase monomer. Furthermore, we showed that PHB3 could interact with the F1-ATPase subunits β and δ in the yeast two-hybrid system (Y2H) and luciferase complementation imaging (LCI) assay and with Fo-ATPase subunit c in the LCI assay. These results indicate that PHB3 acts as an assembly factor required for the assembly and activity of mitochondrial ATP synthase.

Abstract
This integrative study of transcriptomics and metabolomics aimed to improve our understanding of Wooden Breast myopathy (WB). Breast muscle samples from 8 WB affected and 8 unaffected male broiler chickens of 47 days of age were harvested for metabolite profiling. Among these 16 samples, 5 affected and 6 unaffected also underwent gene expression profiling. The Joint Pathway Analysis was applied on 119 metabolites and 3444 genes exhibiting differential abundance or expression between WB affected and unaffected chickens. Mitochondrial dysfunctions in WB was suggested by higher levels of monoacylglycerols and down-regulated genes involved in lipid production, fatty acid beta oxidation, and oxidative phosphorylation. Lower levels of carnosine and anserine, along with down-regulated carnosine synthase 1 suggested decreased carnosine synthesis and hence impaired antioxidant capacity in WB. Additionally, Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis results indicated that abundance of inosine monophosphate, significantly lower in WB muscle, was correlated with mRNA expression levels of numerous genes related to focal adhesion, extracellular matrix and intercellular signaling, implying its function in connecting and possibly regulating multiple key biological pathways. Overall, this study showed not only the consistency between transcript and metabolite profiles, but also the potential in gaining further insights from analyzing multi-omics data.

Investigation of the effects of overexpression of jumping translocation breakpoint (JTB) protein in MCF7 cells for potential use as a biomarker in breast cancer. Am J Cancer Res 2022; 12:1784-1823. [PMID: 35530281 PMCID: PMC9077082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/27/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Jumping translocation breakpoint (JTB) gene acts as a tumor suppressor or an oncogene in different malignancies, including breast cancer (BC), where it was reported as overexpressed. However, the molecular functions, biological processes and underlying mechanisms through which JTB protein causes increased cell growth, proliferation and invasion is still not fully deciphered. Our goal is to identify the functions of JTB protein by cellular proteomics approaches. MCF7 breast cancer cells were transfected with sense orientation of hJTB cDNA in HA, His and FLAG tagged CMV expression vector to overexpress hJTB and the expression levels were confirmed by Western blotting (WB). Proteins extracted from transfected cells were separated by SDS-PAGE and the in-gel digested peptides were analyzed by nano-liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-MS/MS). By comparing the proteome of cells with upregulated conditions of JTB vs control and identifying the protein dysregulation patterns, we aim to understand the function of this protein and its contribution to tumorigenesis. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) algorithm was performed to investigate the biological processes and pathways that are associated with the JTB protein upregulation. The results demonstrated four significantly enriched gene sets from the following significantly upregulated pathways: mitotic spindle assembly, estrogen response late, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and estrogen response early. JTB protein itself is involved in mitotic spindle pathway by its role in cell division/cytokinesis, and within estrogen response early and late pathways, contributing to discrimination between luminal and mesenchymal breast cancer. Thus, the overexpressed JTB condition was significantly associated with an increased expression of ACTNs, FLNA, FLNB, EZR, MYOF, COL3A1, COL11A1, HSPA1A, HSP90A, WDR, EPPK1, FASN and FOXA1 proteins related to deregulation of cytoskeletal organization and biogenesis, mitotic spindle organization, ECM remodeling, cellular response to estrogen, proliferation, migration, metastasis, increased lipid biogenesis, endocrine therapy resistance, antiapoptosis and discrimination between different breast cancer subtypes. Other upregulated proteins for overexpressed JTB condition are involved in multiple cellular functions and pathways that become dysregulated, such as tumor microenvironment (TME) acidification, the transmembrane transport pathways, glycolytic flux, iron metabolism and oxidative stress, metabolic reprogramming, nucleocytosolic mRNA transport, transcriptional activation, chromatin remodeling, modulation of cell death pathways, stress responsive pathways, and cancer drug resistance. The downregulated proteins for overexpressed JTB condition are involved in adaptive communication between external and internal environment of cells and maintenance between pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic signaling pathways, vesicle trafficking and secretion, DNA lesions repair and suppression of genes involved in tumor progression, proteostasis, redox state regulation, biosynthesis of macromolecules, lipolytic pathway, carbohydrate metabolism, dysregulation of ubiquitin-mediated degradation system, cancer cell immune escape, cell-to-cell and cell-to-ECM interactions, and cytoskeletal behaviour. There were no significantly enriched downregulated pathways.
