Abstract
BACKGROUND Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) on the surface of Streptococcus dysgalactiae, coded with gapC, is a glycolytic enzyme that was reported to be a moonlighting protein and virulence factor. OBJECTIVE This study assessed GAPDH as a potential immunization candidate protein to prevent streptococcus infections. METHODS Mice were vaccinated subcutaneously with recombinant GAPDH and challenged with S. dysgalactiae in vivo. They were then evaluated using histological methods. rGAPDH of mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) was evaluated using immunoblotting, reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay methods. RESULTS Vaccination with rGAPDH improved the survival rates and decreased the bacterial burdens in the mammary glands compared to the control group. The mechanism by which rGAPDH vaccination protects against S. dysgalactiae was investigated. In vitro experiments showed that rGAPDH boosted the generation of interleukin-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α. Treatment of BMDCs with TAK-242, a toll-like receptor 4 inhibitor, or C29, a toll-like receptor 2 inhibitor, reduced cytokines substantially, suggesting that rGAPDH may be a potential ligand for both TLR2 and TLR4. Subsequent investigations showed that rGAPDH may activate the phosphorylation of MAPKs and nuclear factor-κB. CONCLUSIONS GAPDH is a promising immunization candidate protein for targeting virulence and enhancing immune-mediated protection. Further investigations are warranted to understand the mechanisms underlying the activation of BMDCs by rGAPDH in a TLR2- and TLR4-dependent manner and the regulation of inflammatory cytokines contributing to mastitis pathogenesis.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is one of the most prominent housekeeping proteins and is widely used as an internal control in some semi-quantitative assays. In addition to glycolysis, GAPDH is involved in several cancer-related biological processes and has been reported to be commonly dysregulated in multiple cancer types. Therefore, its role in the physiological process of cancer needs to be urgently elucidated. Pan-cancer analysis indicated that GAPDH is ubiquitously highly expressed in most cancer types, and that patients with a high GAPDH expression of in tumor tissues have a poor prognosis. The concordance of GAPDH expression in tumors with the infiltration of immune cells and immune checkpoints implies a certain association between GAPDH and the tumor microenvironment as well as tumor development. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis revealed that GAPDH may contribute to multiple important cancer-related pathways and biological processes. Multi-omics analysis and in vitro cell experiments revealed that GAPDH overexpression is regulated by DNA copy number amplification and promoter methylation modification. Importantly, a transcription factor, forkhead box M1 (FOXM1), which is capable of regulating GAPDH expression, was also identified and was confirmed to be an oncogene and ubiquitously highly expressed in multiple cancer types. Semi-quantitative chromatin immunoprecipitation, quantitative PCR, and dual-luciferase assays showed that FOXM1 mainly binds to the promoter region of GAPDH in two cancer cell lines. The present findings revealed the implication of GAPDH in tumor development, thus bringing attention to this important molecule and casting doubts on its role as an internal reference gene in cancer studies.

BDNF mimetic 7,8-dihydroxyflavone rescues rotenone-induced cytotoxicity in cardiomyocytes by ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction. Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 198:83-91. [PMID: 36764626 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.02.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023]
Abstract
The relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and cardiovascular disease pathogenesis is well recognized. 7,8-Dihydroxyflavone (7,8-DHF), a mimetic of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, inhibits mitochondrial impairments and improves cardiac function. However, the regulatory role of 7,8-DHF in the mitochondrial function of cardiomyocytes is not fully understood. To investigate the potential mito-protective effects of 7,8-DHF in cardiomyocytes, we treated H9c2 or HL-1 cells with the mitochondrial respiratory complex I inhibitor rotenone (Rot) as an in vitro model of mitochondrial dysfunction. We found that 7,8-DHF effectively eliminated various concentrations of Rot-induced cell death and reduced lactate dehydrogenase release. 7,8-DHF significantly improved mitochondrial membrane potential and inhibited mitochondrial reactive oxygen species. Moreover, 7,8-DHF decreased routine and leak respiration, restored protein levels of mitochondrial complex I-IV, and increased ATP production in Rot-treated H9c2 cells. The protective role of 7,8-DHF in Rot-induced damage was validated in HL-1 cells. Nuclear phosphorylation protein expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was significantly increased by 7,8-DHF. The present study suggests that 7,8-DHF rescues Rot-induced cytotoxicity by inhibiting mitochondrial dysfunction and promoting nuclear translocation of p-STAT3 in cardiomyocytes, thus nominating 7,8-DHF as a new pharmacological candidate agent against mitochondrial dysfunction in cardiac diseases.

Abstract
The new polyketides lopouzanones A and B, as well as the new 1-O-acetyl and 2-O-acetyl derivatives of dendrodochol B, were isolated from the sponge-derived marine fungus Lopadostoma pouzarii strain 168CLC-57.3. Moreover, six known polyketides, gliorosein, balticolid, dendrodolide G, dihydroisocoumarine, (-)-5-methylmellein, and dendrodochol B, were identified. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by a combination of NMR and ESIMS techniques. The absolute configurations of the lopouzanones A and B were determined using the Mosher's method. The cytotoxicity of the isolated compounds against human prostate cancer cells PC-3 and normal rat cardiomyocytes H9c2 was investigated. Gliorosein showed weak DPPH radical-scavenging activity and in vitro cardioprotective effects toward rotenone toxicity and CoCl2-mimic hypoxia.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a key enzyme in glycolysis, is commonly used as an internal reference gene in humans, mice, and insects. However, the function of GAPDH in insect development, especially in metamorphosis, has not been reported. In the present study, Helicoverpa armigera and Spodoptera frugiperda ovarian cell lines (Sf9 cells) were used as materials to study the function and molecular mechanism of GAPDH in larval metamorphosis. The results showed that HaGAPDH was more closely related to GAPDH of S. frugiperda and Spodoptera litura. The transcript peaks of HaGAPDH in sixth instar larvae were 6L-3 (epidermal and midgut) and 6L-1 (fat body) days, and 20E and methoprene significantly upregulated the transcripts of HaGAPDH of larvae in qRT-PCR. HaGAPDH–GFP–His was specifically localized in mitochondria in Sf9 cells. Knockdown of HaGAPDH by RNA interference (RNAi) in sixth instar larvae resulted in weight loss, increased mortality, and decreases in the pupation rate and emergence rates. HaGAPDH is directly bound to soluble trehalase (HaTreh1) physically and under 20E treatment in yeast two-hybrid, coimmunoprecipitation, and colocalization experiments. In addition, knockdown of HaGAPDH increased the Treh1 activity, which in turn decreased the trehalose content but increased the glucose content in larvae. Therefore, these data demonstrated that GAPDH controlled the glucose content within the normal range to ensure glucose metabolism and metamorphosis by directly binding with HaTreh1.

Abstract
Objective Ischemic heart disease (IHD) has always been the focus of attention of many researchers in cardiovascular disease, and its pathogenesis is also very complicated. Ferroptosis may be involved in the occurrence and development of IHD. Methods First, primary cardiomyocytes were treated with H2O2 to simulate the IHD in vitro model. After pretreatment with different concentrations of ferrostatin-1, cell survival rate was detected by MTT method, cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining and flow cytometry, and the expression of oxidative stress, ferroptosis, and related molecules of Nrf2/ARE pathway was detected by Western blotting (WB) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results The mortality of primary cardiomyocytes in the H2O2 group was obviously increased. Ferrostatin-1 treatment can effectively inhibit cell death, improve antioxidant enzyme activity, inhibit the expression of ferroptosis-related molecules, and activate Nrf2/ARE pathway expression. Conclusion Ferroptosis-specific inhibitor ferrostatin-1 relieves H2O2-induced redox imbalance in primary cardiomyocytes through the Nrf2/ARE pathway, inhibits ferroptosis, and thereby slows cardiomyocyte death.

Abstract
The transport mechanism of intestinal α-synuclein to the central nervous system has become a new hot topic in Parkinson's disease (PD) research. It is worth noting that the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) has been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of PD. After silencing GAPDH expression by GAPDH siRNA, the normal human intestinal epithelial crypt-like (HIEC) and human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell lines were co-cultured with Escherichia coli cells which were transfected with an α-synuclein overexpression plasmid. The levels of autophagy-related proteins (BECN1, ATG5, LC3A/B and p62) were determined by Western blot analysis. Changes in pro-apoptosis protein levels and flow cytometry analysis were used to assess cell apoptosis and relative intracellular ATP concentration was measured. Oxidative stress was assessed by measuring the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) using 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA), thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), and antioxidant capacity was assessed by measuring the glutathione (GSH) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. The silencing of the expression of GAPDH pre-knockdown was found to reduce the intracellular levels of ROS and lipid peroxidation, enhance autophagy activity, thereby reducing the cell injury, apoptosis and necrosis induced by exogenous α-synuclein protein in SH-SY5Y cells. This study identifies a new therapeutic target of exogenous α-synuclein protein induced SH-SY5Y cell injury and improves our understanding of the pathophysiological role of GAPDH in vitro.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a glycolytic enzyme whose role in cell metabolism and homeostasis is well defined, while its function in pathologic processes needs further elucidation. Depending on the cell context, GAPDH may bind a number of physiologically important proteins, control their function and correspondingly affect the cell’s fate. These interprotein interactions and post-translational modifications of GAPDH mediate its cytotoxic or cytoprotective functions in the manner of a Janus-like molecule. In this review, we discuss the functional features of the enzyme in cellular physiology and its possible involvement in human pathologies. In the last part of the article, we describe drugs that can be employed to modulate this enzyme’s function in some pathologic states.

Abstract
With wide application in agriculture, copper fungicides have undergone three stages of development: inorganic copper, synthetic organic copper, and natural organic copper. Using chitin/chitosan (CS) as a substrate, the natural organic copper fungicide C-coordinated O-carboxymethyl chitosan Cu(II) complex (O-CSLn-Cu) was developed in the laboratory. Taking Phytophthora capsici Leonian as an example, we explored the antifungal mechanism of O-CSLn-Cu by combining tandem mass tag (TMT)-based proteomics with non-targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based metabolomics. A total of 1172 differentially expressed proteins were identified by proteomics analysis. According to the metabolomics analysis, 93 differentially metabolites were identified. Acetyl-CoA-related and membrane localized proteins showed significant differences in the proteomics analysis. Most of the differential expressed metabolites were distributed in the cytoplasm, followed by mitochondria. The integrated analysis revealed that O-CSLn-Cu could induce the "Warburg effect", with increased glycolysis in the cytoplasm and decreased metabolism in the mitochondria. Therefore, P. capsici Leonian had to compensate for ATP loss in the TCA cycle by increasing the glycolysis rate. However, this metabolic shift could not prevent the death of P. capsici Leonian. To verify this hypothesis, a series of biological experiments, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and enzyme activity measurements were carried out. The results suggest that O-CSLn-Cu causes mitochondrial injury, which consequently leads to excessive ROS levels and insufficient ATP levels, thereby killing P. capsici Leonian.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Development of Parkinson's disease (PD) is attributed to both genetic and environmental factors. Furthermore,GAPDH may play a key role in the development of neurodegenerative disease. Examination of genetic polymorphism in patients with sporadic PD will help uncover the mechanisms of PD pathogenesis and provide new insights into the treatment of PD. METHODS AND RESULTS The SNaPshot method was applied to determine the gene sequences in 265 patients with idiopathic PD and 269 control cases (sex- and age-matched). The rs1136666 polymorphism of GAPDH was determined to be closely associated with PD. Subsequently, the CC genotype of the rs1136666 fragment was transfected into SH-SY5Y cells via a plasmid. The genetic expression of rs1136666 CC could induce SH-SY5Y cell injury and apoptosis via regulation of the oxidant-antioxidant and apoptosis-antiapoptosis balance. rs1136666 CC of the GAPDH had a pro-apoptotic effect similar to that of rotenone, and combination of the rs1136666 CC genetic variation and the rotenone neurotoxic effect could aggravate oxidative stress, cell injury, and apoptosis better than either single treatment alone. CONCLUSION This study confirmed that the rs1136666 CC allele of theGAPDH increased the risk of PD, particularly in older male patients.

Abstract
Background and aim Beclin1 has been reported as a vital marker for a number of malignant tumors. However, the role of Beclin1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains inconclusive. Thus, we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the correlation between Beclin1 and its clinicopathological and prognostic values in HCC. Methods PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMBASE, Chinese CNKI, and Chinese WanFang databases were searched for published articles on Beclin1 expression in hepatocellular tissues. Standard-compliant articles were screened using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale for strict quality control of the literature. The correlation of Beclin1 expression with the clinicopathological features and survival outcomes was analyzed. Pooled odds ratios and hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals were calculated using STATA14.2. Results Eleven articles with 1,279 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Positive Beclin1 expression was found to be correlated with alpha fetoprotein, liver cirrhosis, and vascular invasion, but not with gender, age, HBsAg, size of tumor, number of tumors, differentiation, and TNM stage. Positive Beclin1 expression was also associated with favorable 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival rates. Conclusion Our meta-analysis indicated that positive Beclin1 expression was negatively related to alpha fetoprotein, liver cirrhosis, and vascular invasion in HCC. Beclin1 could be used as a prognostic biomarker for HCC.

Eur J Pharmacol 2017; 819:58-67. [PMID: 29183837 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2017.11.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2017] [Revised: 11/02/2017] [Accepted: 11/24/2017] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Previous studies have shown that melatonin can protect cells against rotenone-induced cell death. Yet, the mechanism involved in this protection requires further research. In this study, we aimed to further investigate the effects of melatonin on inhibiting rotenone-induced SH-SY5Y cells and the underlying molecular mechanisms. Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were treated with 0.3 or 1μM rotenone for 6 or 12h. Cell viability was measured with an MTS assay, the mitochondrial membrane potential was determined with a Rhodamine 123 staining assay, and the protein expression levels of the markers of autophagy, including cytochrome C release (Cyt C), light chain 3B (LC3 B) and Dynamin-Related Protein 1 (Drp1) were analyzed by western blotting. The co-localization of Drp1 and TOM20 proteins in the mitochondria of SH-SY5Y cells was measured by immunofluorescence coupled with confocal microscopy and the overexpression of the Drp1 gene was then conducted. The viability and expression levels of Cyt C and LC3 B in rotenone and melatonin + rotenone-treated Drp1-overexpressed SH-SY5Y cells were analyzed with MTS and western blotting, respectively. We found that rotenone effectively induced SH-SY5Y cell death by causing mitochondrial dysfunction and increasing Cyt C expression. Drp1 expression and its regulation of mitochondrial translocation mediated the rotenone-induced cell death and melatonin inhibited this process. Overexpression of Drp1 protein attenuated melatonin's inhibition of rotenone-induced SH-SY5Y cell death. In conclusion, melatonin effectively inhibits rotenone-induced neuronal cell death via the regulation of Drp1 expression.

Resveratrol attenuates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury through up-regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor B. Free Radic Biol Med 2016; 101:1-9. [PMID: 27667182 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2016.09.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 57] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2016] [Revised: 08/07/2016] [Accepted: 09/20/2016] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
The objective was to examine the protective effect of resveratrol (RSV) on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury and whether the mechanism was related to vascular endothelial growth factor B (VEGF-B) signaling pathway. Rat hearts were isolated for Langendorff perfusion test and H9c2 cells were used for in vitro assessments. RSV treatment significantly improved left ventricular function, inhibited CK-MB release, and reduced infarct size in comparison with IR group ex vivo. RSV treatment markedly decreased cell death and apoptosis of H9c2 cells during IR. We found that RSV was responsible for the up-regulation of VEGF-B mRNA and protein level, which caused the activation of Akt and the inhibition of GSK3β. Additionally, RSV prevented the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by up-regulating the expression of MnSOD either in vitro or ex vivo. We also found that the inhibition of VEGF-B abolished the cardioprotective effect of RSV, increased apoptosis, and led to the down-regulation of phosphorylated Akt, GSK3β, and MnSOD in H9c2 cells. These results demonstrated that RSV was able to attenuate myocardial IR injury via promotion of VEGF-B/antioxidant signaling pathway. Therefore, the up-regulation of VEGF-B can be a promising modality for clinical myocardial IR injury therapy.

Abstract
Autophagy is an evolutionarily ancient mechanism that ensures the lysosomal degradation of old, supernumerary or ectopic cytoplasmic entities. Most eukaryotic cells, including neurons, rely on proficient autophagic responses for the maintenance of homeostasis in response to stress. Accordingly, autophagy mediates neuroprotective effects following some forms of acute brain damage, including methamphetamine intoxication, spinal cord injury and subarachnoid haemorrhage. In some other circumstances, however, the autophagic machinery precipitates a peculiar form of cell death (known as autosis) that contributes to the aetiology of other types of acute brain damage, such as neonatal asphyxia. Here, we dissect the context-specific impact of autophagy on non-infectious acute brain injury, emphasizing the possible therapeutic application of pharmacological activators and inhibitors of this catabolic process for neuroprotection.

Abstract
Oxygen or nutrient deprivation of early stage tumoral spheroids can be used to reliably mimic the initial growth of primary and metastatic cancer cells. However, cancer cell growth during the initial stages has not been fully explored using a genome-wide approach. Thus, in the present study, we investigated the transcriptome of breast cancer cells during the initial stages of tumoral growth using RNAseq in a model of Multicellular Tumor Spheroids (MTS). Network analyses showed that a metastatic signature was enriched as several adhesion molecules were deregulated, including EPCAM, E-cadherin, integrins and syndecans, which were further supported by an increase in cell migration. Interestingly, we also found that the cancer cells at this stage of growth exhibited a paradoxical hyperactivation of oxidative mitochondrial metabolism. In addition, we found a large number of regulated (long non coding RNA) lncRNAs, several of which were co-regulated with neighboring genes. The regulatory role of some of these lncRNAs on mRNA expression was demonstrated with gain of function assays. This is the first report of an early-stage MTS transcriptome, which not only reveals a complex expression landscape, but points toward an important contribution of long non-coding RNAs in the final phenotype of three-dimensional cellular models.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is one of the most abundant targets of the oxidative stress. Oxidation of the enzyme causes its inactivation and the formation of intermolecular disulfide bonds, and leads to the accumulation of GAPDH aggregates and ultimately to cell death. The aim of this work was to reveal the ability of chemicals to break the described above pathologic linkage by inhibiting GAPDH aggregation. Using the model of oxidative stress based on SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma cells treated with hydrogen peroxide, we found that lentivirus-mediated down- or up-regulation of GAPDH content caused inhibition or enhancement of the protein aggregation and respectively reduced or increased the level of cell death. To reveal substances that are able to inhibit GAPDH aggregation, we developed a special assay based on dot ultrafiltration using the collection of small molecules of plant origin. In the first round of screening, five compounds were found to possess anti-aggregation activity as established by ultrafiltration and dynamic light scattering; some of the substances efficiently inhibited GAPDH aggregation in nanomolar concentrations. The ability of the compounds to bind GAPDH molecules was proved by the drug affinity responsive target stability assay, molecular docking and differential scanning calorimetry. Results of experiments with SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma treated with hydrogen peroxide show that two substances, RX409 and RX426, lowered the degree of GAPDH aggregation and reduced cell death by 30%. Oxidative injury was emulated in vivo by injecting of malonic acid into the rat brain, and we showed that the treatment with RX409 or RX426 inhibited GAPDH-mediated aggregation in the brain, reduced areas of the injury as proved by magnetic resonance imaging, and augmented the behavioral status of the rats as established by the "beam walking" test. In conclusion, the data show that two GAPDH binders could be therapeutically relevant in the treatment of injuries stemming from hard oxidative stress.

Abstract
Small Heat Shock Proteins (sHSPs) are molecular chaperones that transiently interact with other proteins, thereby assisting with quality control of proper protein folding and/or degradation. They are also recruited to protect cells from a variety of stresses in response to extreme heat, heavy metals, and oxidative-reductive stress. Although ten human sHSPs have been identified, their likely diverse biological functions remain an enigma in health and disease, and much less is known about non-redundant roles in selective cells and tissues. Herein, we set out to comprehensively characterize the cardiac-restricted Heat Shock Protein B-2 (HspB2), which exhibited ischemic cardioprotection in transgenic overexpressing mice including reduced infarct size and maintenance of ATP levels. Global yeast two-hybrid analysis using HspB2 (bait) and a human cardiac library (prey) coupled with co-immunoprecipitation studies for mitochondrial target validation revealed the first HspB2 “cardiac interactome” to contain many myofibril and mitochondrial-binding partners consistent with the overexpression phenotype. This interactome has been submitted to the Biological General Repository for Interaction Datasets (BioGRID). A related sHSP chaperone HspB5 had only partially overlapping binding partners, supporting specificity of the interactome as well as non-redundant roles reported for these sHSPs. Evidence that the cardiac yeast two-hybrid HspB2 interactome targets resident mitochondrial client proteins is consistent with the role of HspB2 in maintaining ATP levels and suggests new chaperone-dependent functions for metabolic homeostasis. One of the HspB2 targets, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), has reported roles in HspB2 associated phenotypes including cardiac ATP production, mitochondrial function, and apoptosis, and was validated as a potential client protein of HspB2 through chaperone assays. From the clientele and phenotypes identified herein, it is tempting to speculate that small molecule activators of HspB2 might be deployed to mitigate mitochondrial related diseases such as cardiomyopathy and neurodegenerative disease.
