Oppedisano F, Nesci S, Spagnoletta A. Mitochondrial sirtuin 3 and role of natural compounds: the effect of post-translational modifications on cellular metabolism. Crit Rev Biochem Mol Biol 2024:1-22. [PMID: 38993040 DOI: 10.1080/10409238.2024.2377094] [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: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024]
Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are a family of proteins with enzymatic activity. In particular, they are a family of class III NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases and ADP-ribosyltransferases. NAD+-dependent deac(et)ylase activities catalyzed by sirtuin include ac(et)ylation, propionylation, butyrylation, crotonylation, manylation, and succinylation. Specifically, human SIRT3 is a 399 amino acid protein with two functional domains: a large Rossmann folding motif and NAD+ binding, and a small complex helix and zinc-binding motif. SIRT3 is widely expressed in mitochondria-rich tissues and is involved in maintaining mitochondrial integrity, homeostasis, and function. Moreover, SIRT3 regulates related diseases, such as aging, hepatic, kidney, neurodegenerative and cardiovascular disease, metabolic diseases, and cancer development. In particular, one of the most significant and damaging post-translational modifications is irreversible protein oxidation, i.e. carbonylation. This process is induced explicitly by increased ROS production due to mitochondrial dysfunction. SIRT3 is carbonylated by 4-hydroxynonenal at the level of Cys280. The carbonylation induces conformational changes in the active site, resulting in allosteric inhibition of SIRT3 activity and loss of the ability to deacetylate and regulate antioxidant enzyme activity. Phytochemicals and, in particular, polyphenols, thanks to their strong antioxidant activity, are natural compounds with a positive regulatory action on SIRT3 in various pathologies. Indeed, the enzymatic SIRT3 activity is modulated, for example, by different natural polyphenol classes, including resveratrol and the bergamot polyphenolic fraction. Thus, this review aims to elucidate the mechanisms by which phytochemicals can interact with SIRT3, resulting in post-translational modifications that regulate cellular metabolism.

Fujii J, Imai H. Oxidative Metabolism as a Cause of Lipid Peroxidation in the Execution of Ferroptosis. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:7544. [PMID: 39062787 PMCID: PMC11276677 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25147544] [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: 06/28/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Ferroptosis is a type of nonapoptotic cell death that is characteristically caused by phospholipid peroxidation promoted by radical reactions involving iron. Researchers have identified many of the protein factors that are encoded by genes that promote ferroptosis. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is a key enzyme that protects phospholipids from peroxidation and suppresses ferroptosis in a glutathione-dependent manner. Thus, the dysregulation of genes involved in cysteine and/or glutathione metabolism is closely associated with ferroptosis. From the perspective of cell dynamics, actively proliferating cells are more prone to ferroptosis than quiescent cells, which suggests that radical species generated during oxygen-involved metabolism are responsible for lipid peroxidation. Herein, we discuss the initial events involved in ferroptosis that dominantly occur in the process of energy metabolism, in association with cysteine deficiency. Accordingly, dysregulation of the tricarboxylic acid cycle coupled with the respiratory chain in mitochondria are the main subjects here, and this suggests that mitochondria are the likely source of both radical electrons and free iron. Since not only carbohydrates, but also amino acids, especially glutamate, are major substrates for central metabolism, dealing with nitrogen derived from amino groups also contributes to lipid peroxidation and is a subject of this discussion.

Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:6267-6283. [PMID: 38921045 PMCID: PMC11202877 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46060374] [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: 04/26/2024] [Revised: 06/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Autoantibodies against apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) are associated with cardiovascular disease risks. We aimed to examine the 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) modification of ApoA-I in coronary artery disease (CAD) and evaluate the potential risk of autoantibodies against their unmodified and HNE-modified peptides. We assessed plasma levels of ApoA-I, HNE-protein adducts, and autoantibodies against unmodified and HNE-peptide adducts, and significant correlations and odds ratios (ORs) were examined. Two novel CAD-specific HNE-peptide adducts, ApoA-I251-262 and ApoA-I70-83, were identified. Notably, immunoglobulin G (IgG) anti-ApoA-I251-262 HNE, IgM anti-ApoA-I70-83 HNE, IgG anti-ApoA-I251-262, IgG anti-ApoA-I70-83, and HNE-protein adducts were significantly correlated with triglycerides, creatinine, or high-density lipoprotein in CAD with various degrees of stenosis (<30% or >70%). The HNE-protein adduct (OR = 2.208-fold, p = 0.020) and IgM anti-ApoA-I251-262 HNE (2.046-fold, p = 0.035) showed an increased risk of progression from >30% stenosis in CAD. HNE-protein adducts and IgM anti-ApoA-I251-262 HNE may increase the severity of CAD at high and low levels, respectively.

Abstract
Exaggerated clot induces venous thrombosis (VTE); oxidative stress (OxS) can to be postulated as additional risk factor. This study evaluates firstly OxS by measuring surrogate biomarkers (malondialdehyde-MDA, 4-hydroxinonenal-4-HNE, superoxide desmutase enzyme (SOD)), secondly the iron (Fe) plasma level and thirdly the hepcidin protein (Hep) level in patients with VTE. A case control study was performed enrolling twenty hospitalized patients and an equal number of healthy individuals. In VTE patients, the following results were found. The MDA was 8.38 ± 0.5 µM/L, the 4-HNE measured 2.75 ± 0.03 µM/L and the SOD was 0.025 ± 0.01 U/mL. The I was 73.10 ± 10 µg/dL and the He was 4.77 ± 0.52 ng/mL. In the control group, the MDA measured 5.5 ± 0.6 µM/L, the 4-HNE 2.24 ± 0.021 µM/L and the SOD 0.08 ± 0.12 U/mL. The Hep was 2.1 ± 0.55 ng/mL and the Fe was 88.2 ± 9.19 µg/dL. Differences were statistically significant. Results suggest that in VTE there is activated OxS, Fe deregulation and over-production of Hep. Fe deregulation induces OxS, leading both to inflammation in the clot activator and stimulation of the pro-thrombotic status. The study highlights OxS and Fe and their regulation as intriguing indicators for risk of VTE.

Abstract
Maintaining the proteome is crucial to retaining cell functionality and response to multiple intrinsic and extrinsic stressors. Protein misfolding increased the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and activated the adaptive unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore cell homeostasis. Apoptosis occurs when ER stress is prolonged or the adaptive response fails. In healthy young cells, the ratio of protein folding machinery to quantities of misfolded proteins is balanced under normal circumstances. However, the age-related deterioration of the complex systems for handling protein misfolding is accompanied by ageing-related disruption of protein homeostasis, which results in the build-up of misfolded and aggregated proteins. This ultimately results in decreased cell viability and forms the basis of common age-related diseases called protein misfolding diseases. Proteins or protein fragments convert from their ordinarily soluble forms to insoluble fibrils or plaques in many of these disorders, which build up in various organs such as the liver, brain, or spleen. Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, type II diabetes, and cancer are diseases in this group commonly manifest in later life. Thus, protein misfolding and its prevention by chaperones and different degradation paths are becoming understood from molecular perspectives. Proteodynamics information will likely affect future interventional techniques to combat cellular stress and support healthy ageing by avoiding and treating protein conformational disorders. This review provides an overview of the diverse proteostasis machinery, protein misfolding, and ER stress involvement, which activates the UPR sensors. Here, we will discuss the crosstalk between protein misfolding and ER stress and their role in developing age-related diseases.

The potential protective effect of Camellia Sinensis in mitigating monosodium glutamate-induced neurotoxicity: biochemical and histological study in male albino rats.

Abstract
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is the sodium compound derived from glutamic acid. Excessive daily ingestion of MSG leads to elevated amounts of glutamic acid in the bloodstream, which can be detrimental to brain structures. Camellia sinensis, often known as green tea (GT), is a rich source of essential hexogen antioxidants that are necessary for the body. Thirty-two adult male albino rats were divided into four groups (n = 8). Group 1 served as a control -ve group. Group 2 was given GT (1.5 ml/rat/day). Group 3 was given MSG (600 mg/kg/day). Group 4 was given MSG (600 mg/kg/day) and GT (1.5 ml/rat/day). All treatments were given orally for 28 days. MSG administration resulted in significant neurotoxicity in rats that was revealed by the significant reduction of serum concentration of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and nitric oxide (NO), and the significant elevation of total antioxidant capacity (TAC) accompanied by the significant reduction of levels of serum monoamines (dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine) and histological changes in the hippocampus area CA1, dentate gyrus, and cerebellar cortex and positive immunohistochemical staining of glial fibrillary acidic proteins (GFAP) and calretinin. Administration of GT with MSG counteracted the MSG-mediated oxidative stress by significantly increasing serum concentrations of GPX and NO and significantly decreasing concentrations of TAC. Furthermore, GT significantly increased levels of serum monoamines (dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine). Moreover, it ameliorated the histological changes, GFAP, and calretinin immunostaining in brain tissues. It is envisaged that GT will serve as a viable protective choice for the inclusion of the neurotoxicity treatment procedure.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a pervasive non-apoptotic form of cell death highly relevant in various degenerative diseases and malignancies. The hallmark of ferroptosis is uncontrolled and overwhelming peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids contained in membrane phospholipids, which eventually leads to rupture of the plasma membrane. Ferroptosis is unique in that it is essentially a spontaneous, uncatalyzed chemical process based on perturbed iron and redox homeostasis contributing to the cell death process, but that it is nonetheless modulated by many metabolic nodes that impinge on the cells' susceptibility to ferroptosis. Among the various nodes affecting ferroptosis sensitivity, several have emerged as promising candidates for pharmacological intervention, rendering ferroptosis-related proteins attractive targets for the treatment of numerous currently incurable diseases. Herein, the current members of a Germany-wide research consortium focusing on ferroptosis research, as well as key external experts in ferroptosis who have made seminal contributions to this rapidly growing and exciting field of research, have gathered to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review on ferroptosis. Specific topics include: basic mechanisms, in vivo relevance, specialized methodologies, chemical and pharmacological tools, and the potential contribution of ferroptosis to disease etiopathology and progression. We hope that this article will not only provide established scientists and newcomers to the field with an overview of the multiple facets of ferroptosis, but also encourage additional efforts to characterize further molecular pathways modulating ferroptosis, with the ultimate goal to develop novel pharmacotherapies to tackle the various diseases associated with - or caused by - ferroptosis.

[PMID: 38803005 DOI: 10.1002/1873-3468.14937] [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: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are well-established signaling molecules implicated in a wide range of cellular processes, including both oxidative stress and intracellular redox signaling. In the context of insulin action within its target tissues, ROS have been reported to exert both positive and negative regulatory effects. However, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying this duality remain unclear. This Review examines the complex role of ROS in insulin action, with a particular focus on skeletal muscle. We aim to address three critical aspects: (a) the proposed intracellular pro-oxidative redox shift elicited by insulin, (b) the evidence supporting that redox-sensitive cysteine modifications impact insulin signaling and action, and (c) cellular mechanisms underlying how ROS can paradoxically act as both enhancers and inhibitors of insulin action. This Review underscores the urgent need for more systematic research to identify specific reactive species, redox targets, and the physiological significance of redox signaling in maintaining insulin action and metabolic health, with a particular emphasis on human skeletal muscle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Doxorubicin is an effective antineoplastic agent but has limited clinical application because of its cumulative toxicities, including cardiotoxicity. Cardiotoxicity causes lipid peroxidation, genetic impairment, oxidative stress, inhibition of autophagy, and disruption of calcium homeostasis. Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity is frequently tried to be mitigated by phytochemicals, which are derived from plants and possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties. Arbutin, a natural antioxidant found in the leaves of the bearberry plant, has numerous pharmacological benefits, including antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-hyperglycemic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor activity. METHODS AND RESULTS The study involved male Wistar rats divided into three groups: a control group, a group treated with doxorubicin (20 mg/kg) to induce cardiac toxicity, a group treated with arbutin (100 mg/kg) daily for two weeks before doxorubicin administration. After treatment, plasma and heart tissue samples were collected for analysis. The samples were evaluated for oxidative stress parameters, including superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, and catalase, as well as for cardiac biomarkers, including CK, CK-MB, and LDH. The heart tissues were also analyzed using molecular (TNF-α, IL-1β and Caspase 3), histopathological and immunohistochemical methods (8-OHDG, 4 Hydroxynonenal, and dityrosine). The results showed that arbutin treatment was protective against doxorubicin-induced oxidative damage by increasing SOD and CAT activity and decreasing MDA level. Arbutin treatment was similarly able to reverse the inflammatory response caused by doxorubicin by reducing TNF-α and IL-1β levels and also reverse the apoptosis by decreasing caspase-3 levels. It was able to prevent doxorubicin-induced cardiac damage by reducing cardiac biomarkers CK, CK-MB and LDH levels. In addition to all these results, histopathological analyzes also show that arbutin may be beneficial against the damage caused by doxorubicin on heart tissue. CONCLUSION The study suggests that arbutin has the potential to be used to mitigate doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in cancer patients.

Composition of fatty acids in a high-fat diet affects adipose tissue inflammation by inducing calreticulin on adipocytes and activating group 1 innate lymphoid cells. Eur J Immunol 2024; 54:e2350800.

Abstract
Obesity-induced adipose tissue inflammation plays a critical role in the development of metabolic diseases. For example, NK1.1+ group 1 innate lymphoid cells (G1-ILCs) in adipose tissues are activated in the early stages of inflammation in response to a high-fat diet (HFD). In this study, we examined whether the composition of fatty acids affected adipose inflammatory responses induced by an HFD. Mice were fed a stearic acid (C18:0)-rich HFD (HFD-S) or a linoleic acid (C18:2)-rich HFD (HFD-L). HFD-L-fed mice showed significant obesity compared with HFD-S-fed mice. Visceral and subcutaneous fat pads were enlarged and contained more NK1.1+KLRG1+ cells, indicating that G1-ILCs were activated in HFD-L-fed mice. We examined early changes in adipose tissues during the first week of HFD intake, and found that mice fed HFD-L showed increased levels of NK1.1+CD11b+KLRG1+ cells in adipose tissues. In adipose tissue culture, addition of 4-hydroxynonenal, the most frequent product of lipid peroxidation derived from unsaturated fatty acids, induced NK1.1+CD11b+CD27- cells. We found that calreticulin, a ligand for the NK activating receptor, was induced on the surface of adipocytes after exposure to 4-hydroxynonenal or a 1-week feeding with HFD-L. Thus, excess fatty acid intake and the activation of G1-ILCs initiate and/or modify adipose inflammation.

Abstract
Conventional photodynamic therapy (PDT) is often limited in treating solid tumors due to hypoxic conditions that impede the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are critical for therapeutic efficacy. To address this issue, a fractionated PDT protocol has been suggested, wherein light irradiation is administered in stages separated by dark intervals to permit oxygen recovery during these breaks. However, the current photosensitizers used in fractionated PDT are incapable of sustaining ROS production during the dark intervals, leading to suboptimal therapeutic outcomes (Table S1). To circumvent this drawback, we have synthesized a novel photosensitizer based on a triple-anthracene derivative that is designed for prolonged ROS generation, even after the cessation of light exposure. Our study reveals a unique photodynamic action of these derivatives, facilitating the direct and effective disruption of biomolecules and significantly improving the efficacy of fractionated PDT (Table S2). Moreover, the existing photosensitizers lack imaging capabilities for monitoring, which constraints the fine-tuning of irradiation parameters (Table S1). Our triple-anthracene derivative also serves as an afterglow imaging agent, emitting sustained luminescence postirradiation. This imaging function allows for the precise optimization of intervals between PDT sessions and aids in determining the timing for subsequent irradiation, thus enabling meticulous control over therapy parameters. Utilizing our novel triple-anthracene photosensitizer, we have formulated a fractionated PDT regimen that effectively eliminates orthotopic pancreatic tumors. This investigation highlights the promise of employing long-persistent photodynamic activity in advanced fractionated PDT approaches to overcome the current limitations of PDT in solid tumor treatment.

Abstract
Aspirin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, has been proven effective in a clinical trial of carcinogenesis blockade. However, various modes of action have been reported for these effects. Thus, in this study, we aimed to present reasonable mode of actions as a proof of concept for human trials, especially trials for patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Aspirin treatment at 1000 ppm inhibited intestinal tumorigenesis in FAP model Min mice. As a mode of action, aspirin regulated β-catenin signaling, inflammation, and oxidative stress both in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, we examined novel markers predictive of aspirin treatment based on liquid biopsy. Here, we demonstrated that aspirin reduced the levels of reactive carbonyl species in the serum of Min mice. These data are expected to be of use for proof of concept of aspirin human trials and implied for the prediction of aspirin efficacy.

The Inflammatory and Oxidative Status of Newly Diagnosed Class III and Class IV Lupus Nephritis, with Six-Month Follow-Up. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:2065.

Abstract
Lupus nephritis (LN) is the most frequent and severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). A prospective cohort with a six-month follow-up was performed. Twelve SLE patients diagnosed with LN Class III, twelve NL Class IV patients, and twelve healthy control subjects (HC) were included. SLE data, renal function, oxidants, antioxidants, and inflammation were determined at baseline and six-month follow-up. During the six-month follow-up, the SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI-2K) decreased in both LN Class III (20.08 ± 6.92 vs. 11.92 ± 5.87, p < 0.001) and LN Class IV (25.33 ± 6.01 vs. 13.83 ± 5.52, p < 0.001) patients. Furthermore, the values of the C4 component also increased during follow-up for LN Class III (25.36 ± 6.34 vs. 30.91 ± 9.22, p = 0.027) and LN Class IV (12.18 ± 3.90 vs. 20.33 ± 8.95, p = 0.008) groups. Regarding inflammation markers, both groups presented decreased C-reactive protein (CRP), but this was only significant for patients with LN class III (7.93 ± 1.77 vs. 4.72 ± 3.23, p = 0.006). Renal function remained stable in both groups, with no changes in eGFR. Patients with LN Class III and Class IV showed higher baseline levels for lipoperoxides (Class III p < 0.01, Class IV p < 0.1) and carbonyl groups in proteins (Class III p < 0.01, Class IV p < 0.1) compared to HC. Moreover, both groups presented lower baseline values of total antioxidant capacity (Class III p < 0.01, Class IV p < 0.1) and catalase (Class III p < 0.01, Class IV p < 0.1) compared to HCs. However, antioxidant and oxidant markers did not show significant differences between baseline values and at six months for either of the two study groups. In conclusion, patients show an imbalance in the oxidative state characterized by the increase in the oxidants LPO and protein carbonyl groups and the decrease in the activity of the antioxidant enzymes TAC and CAT compared to HC. However, the patients did not present an increase in disease activity and renal function improvement. The glomerular filtration rate did not change during the length of the study, and SLEDAI -2K, C3, and C4 improved. The early co-management between Rheumatologists and Nephrologists is essential to prevent the rapid progression of LN. It would be interesting to administer antioxidant supplements to patients with a recent diagnosis of LN and evaluate its effect in a follow-up study.

Abstract
The skin is the outermost layer of the body and, therefore, is exposed to a variety of stressors, such as environmental pollutants, known to cause oxinflammatory reactions involved in the exacerbation of several skin conditions. Today, inflammasomes are recognized as important modulators of the cutaneous inflammatory status in response to air pollutants and ultraviolet (UV) light exposure. In this study, human skin explants were exposed to the best-recognized air pollutants, such as microplastics (MP), cigarette smoke (CS), diesel engine exhaust (DEE), ozone (O3), and UV, for 1 or 4 days, to explore how each pollutant can differently modulate markers of cutaneous oxinflammation. Exposure to environmental pollutants caused an altered oxidative stress response, accompanied by increased DNA damage and signs of premature skin aging. The effect of specific pollutants being able to exert different inflammasomes pathways (NLRP1, NLRP3, NLRP6, and NLRC4) was also investigated in terms of scaffold formation and cell pyroptosis. Among all environmental pollutants, O3, MP, and UV represented the main pollutants affecting cutaneous redox homeostasis; of note, the NLRP1 and NLRP6 inflammasomes were the main ones modulated by these outdoor stressors, suggesting their role as possible molecular targets in preventing skin disorders and the inflammaging events associated with environmental pollutant exposure.

Abstract
Lenvatinib is a standard therapy option for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but resistance limits clinical benefits. In this study, we identified inhibition of ROS levels and reduced redox status in Lenvatinib-resistant HCC. Integrating RNA-seq with unbiased whole-genome CRISPR-Cas9 screen analysis indicated LINC01607 regulated the P62 to enhance drug resistance by affecting mitophagy and antioxidant pathways. Underlying mechanisms were investigated both in vitro and in vivo. We initially confirmed that LINC01607, as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) competing with mirRNA-892b, triggered protective mitophagy by upregulating P62, which reduced ROS levels and promoted drug resistance. Furthermore, LINC01607 was proved to resist oxidative stress by regulating the P62-Nrf2 axis, which transcriptionally regulated the expression of LINC01607 to form a positive feedback loop. Finally, silencing LINC01607 combined with Lenvatinib reversed resistance in animal and patient-derived organoid models. In conclusion, we proposed a novel mechanism of Lenvatinib resistance involving ROS homeostasis. This work contributed to understanding redox homeostasis-related drug resistance and provided new therapeutic targets and strategies for HCC patients.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, carbonyl, chlorine, bromine, and iodine species (RXS, where X = O, N, S, C, Cl, Br, and I) have important roles in various normal physiological processes and act as essential regulators of cell metabolism; their inherent biological activities govern cell signaling, immune balance, and tissue homeostasis. However, an imbalance between RXS production and consumption will induce the occurrence and development of various diseases. Due to the considerable progress of nanomedicine, a variety of nanosystems that can regulate RXS has been rationally designed and engineered for restoring RXS balance to halt the pathological processes of different diseases. The invention of radical-regulating nanomaterials creates the possibility of intriguing projects for disease treatment and promotes advances in nanomedicine. In this comprehensive review, we summarize, discuss, and highlight very-recent advances in RXS-based nanomedicine for versatile disease treatments. This review particularly focuses on the types and pathological effects of these reactive species and explores the biological effects of RXS-based nanomaterials, accompanied by a discussion and the outlook of the challenges faced and future clinical translations of RXS nanomedicines.

Abstract
The activation of stress response pathways in synovial fibroblasts (SF) is a hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). CBP and p300 are two highly homologous histone acetyl transferases and writers of activating histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) marks. Furthermore, they serve as co-factors for transcription factors and acetylate many non-histone proteins. Here we showed that p300 but not CBP protein expression was down regulated by TNF and 4-hydroxynonenal, two factors that mimic inflammation and oxidative stress in the synovial microenvironment. We used existing RNA-sequencing data sets as a basis for a further in-depth investigation of individual functions of CBP and p300 in regulating different stress response pathways in SF. Pathway enrichment analysis pointed to a profound role of CBP and/ or p300 in regulating stress response-related gene expression, with an enrichment of pathways associated with oxidative stress, hypoxia, autophagy and proteasome function. We silenced CBP or p300, and performed confirmatory experiments on transcriptome, protein and functional levels. We have identified some overlap of CBP and p300 target genes in the oxidative stress response pathway, however, with several genes being regulated in opposite directions. The majority of stress response genes was regulated by p300, with a specific function of p300 in regulating hypoxia response genes and genes encoding proteasome subunits. Silencing of p300 suppressed proteasome enzymatic activities. CBP and p300 regulated autophagy on transcriptome and functional levels. Whereas CBP was indispensable for autophagy synthesis, silencing of p300 affected late-stage autophagy. In line with impaired autophagy and proteasome function, poly-ubiquitinated proteins accumulated after silencing of p300.

Abstract
Biological aging can be described as accumulative, prolonged metabolic stress and is the major risk factor for cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recently, we identified and described a quinone reductase 2 (QR2) pathway in the brain, in which QR2 acts as a removable memory constraint and metabolic buffer within neurons. QR2 becomes overexpressed with age, and it is possibly a novel contributing factor to age-related metabolic stress and cognitive deficit. We found that, in human cells, genetic removal of QR2 produced a shift in the proteome opposing that found in AD brains while simultaneously reducing oxidative stress. We therefore created highly specific QR2 inhibitors (QR2is) to enable evaluation of chronic QR2 inhibition as a means to reduce biological age-related metabolic stress and cognitive decline. QR2is replicated results obtained by genetic removal of QR2, while local QR2i microinjection improved hippocampal and cortical-dependent learning in rats and mice. Continuous consumption of QR2is in drinking water improved cognition and reduced pathology in the brains of AD-model mice (5xFAD), with a noticeable between-sex effect on treatment duration. These results demonstrate the importance of QR2 activity and pathway function in the healthy and neurodegenerative brain and what we believe to be the great therapeutic potential of QR2is as first-in-class drugs.

Abstract
Significance: Iron is an essential element for every life on earth as a primary media for electron flow. Sulfur compounds as sulfhydryls counteract catalytic activity of iron whereas sulfur overdose is also toxic. In aerobic organisms, oxygen is the major media for electron transfer with higher intracellular mobility, which cooperates with the iron system. Based on the importance of iron, there is no active pathway to excrete iron outside the body in higher species. Whereas bacterial infection causes a scramble for iron in situ, cancer can be the outcome of the side effects of long use of iron and oxygen. Recent Advances: Ferroptosis is a recently coined cell death, defined as catalytic Fe(II)-dependent regulated necrosis accompanied by lipid peroxidation. Researchers recently recognized that ferroptosis is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological contexts, including embryonic erythropoiesis, aging, neurodegeneration and cancer cell death. Alternatively, carcinogenesis is a process to obtain iron addiction with ferroptosis-resistance, based on rodent animal studies. Critical Issues: Here we propose that ferroptosis is three-dimensionally regulated by iron, sulfur and oxygen, which correspond to oxidants, antioxidants and membrane fluidity with susceptibility to lipid peroxidation, respectively. Future Directions: Whereas life attempts to prevent ferroptosis, ferroptotic cells eventually emit iron-loaded ferritin as extracellular vesicles to maintain monopoly of iron. Antioxid.

Abstract
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a group of disorders linked by functional abnormalities of the meibomian glands. Current studies on MGD pathogenesis focus on meibomian gland cells, providing information on a single cell's response to experimental manipulation, and do not maintain the architecture of an intact meibomian gland acinus and the acinar epithelial cells' secretion state in vivo. In this study, rat meibomian gland explants were cultured by a Transwell chamber-assisted method under an air-liquid interface (airlift) in vitro for 96 h. Analyses for tissue viability, histology, biomarker expression, and lipid accumulation were performed with 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and TUNEL assays, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, immunofluorescence, Quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and western blotting (WB). MTT, TUNEL, and H&E staining indicated better tissue viability and morphology than the submerged conditions used in previous studies. Levels of MGD biomarkers, including keratin 1 (KRT1) and 14 (KRT14) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ), along with oxidative stress markers, including reactive oxygen species, malondialdehyde, and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, gradually increased over culture time. The MGD pathophysiological changes and biomarker expression of meibomian gland explants cultured under airlift conditions were similar to those reported by previous studies, indicating that abnormal acinar cell differentiation and glandular epithelial cell hyperkeratosis may contribute to obstructive MGD occurrence.

Abstract
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is a mitochondrial enzyme that reduces cell injuries via detoxification of lipid-peroxidation product, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (hydroxynonenal). It is generated exogenously via deep-frying of linoleic acid-rich cooking oils and/or endogenously via oxidation of fatty acids involved in biomembranes. Although its toxicity for human health is widely accepted, the underlying mechanism long remained unknown. In 1998, Yamashima et al. have formulated the "calpain-cathepsin hypothesis" as a molecular mechanism of ischemic neuronal death. Subsequently, they found that calpain cleaves Hsp70.1 which became vulnerable after the hydroxynonenal-induced carbonylation at the key site Arg469. Since it is the pivotal aberration that induces lysosomal membrane rupture, they suggested that neuronal death in Alzheimer's disease similarly occurs by chronic ischemia via the calpain-cathepsin cascade triggered by hydroxynonenal. For nearly three decades, amyloid β (Aβ) peptide was thought to be a root substance of Alzheimer's disease. However, because of both the insignificant correlations between Aβ depositions and occurrence of neuronal death or dementia, and the negative results of anti-Aβ medicines tested so far in the patients with Alzheimer's disease, the strength of the "amyloid cascade hypothesis" has been weakened. Recent works have suggested that hydroxynonenal is a mediator of programmed cell death not only in the brain, but also in the liver, pancreas, heart, etc. Increment of hydroxynonenal was considered an early event in the development of Alzheimer's disease. This review aims at suggesting ways out of the tunnel, focusing on the implication of hydroxynonenal in this disease. Herein, the mechanism of Alzheimer neuronal death is discussed by focusing on Hsp70.1 with a dual function as chaperone protein and lysosomal stabilizer. We suggest that Aβ is not a culprit of Alzheimer's disease, but merely a byproduct of autophagy/lysosomal failure resulting from hydroxynonenal-induced Hsp70.1 disorder. Enhancing ALDH2 activity to detoxify hydroxynonenal emerges as a promising strategy for preventing and treating Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Endogenous photosensitizers play a critical role in both beneficial and harmful light-induced transformations in biological systems. Understanding their mode of action is essential for advancing fields such as photomedicine, photoredox catalysis, environmental science, and the development of sun care products. This review offers a comprehensive analysis of endogenous photosensitizers in human skin, investigating the connections between their electronic excitation and the subsequent activation or damage of organic biomolecules. We gather the physicochemical and photochemical properties of key endogenous photosensitizers and examine the relationships between their chemical reactivity, location within the skin, and the primary biochemical events following solar radiation exposure, along with their influence on skin physiology and pathology. An important take-home message of this review is that photosensitization allows visible light and UV-A radiation to have large effects on skin. The analysis presented here unveils potential causes for the continuous increase in global skin cancer cases and emphasizes the limitations of current sun protection approaches.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a special form of regulated cell death, which is reported to play an important role in a variety of traumatic diseases by promoting lipid peroxidation and devastating cell membrane structure. Pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is a kind of disease affecting the quality and health of many women's lives, which is closely related to the injury of the pelvic floor muscle. Clinical findings have discovered that there is anomalous oxidative damage to the pelvic floor muscle in women with PFD caused by mechanical trauma, but the specific mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we explored the role of ferroptosis-associated oxidative mechanisms in mechanical stretching-induced pelvic floor muscle injury, and whether obesity predisposed pelvic floor muscle to ferroptosis from mechanical injury. Our results, in vitro, showed that mechanical stretch could induce oxidative damage to myoblasts and trigger ferroptosis. In addition, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) down-regulation and 15-lipoxygenase 1(15LOX-1) up-regulation exhibited the same variational characteristics as ferroptosis, which was much more pronounced in palmitic acid (PA)-treated myoblasts. Furthermore, ferroptosis induced by mechanical stretch could be rescued by ferroptosis inhibitor (ferrostatin-1). More importantly, in vivo, we found that the mitochondria of pelvic floor muscle shrank, which were consistent with the mitochondrial morphology of ferroptosis, and GPX4 and 15LOX-1 showed the same change observed in cells. In conclusion, our data suggest ferroptosis is involved in the injury of the pelvic floor muscle caused by mechanical stretching, and provide a novel insight for PFD therapy.

Abstract
Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness in older adults, with retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells playing a key role. To better understand the cytotoxic mechanisms underlying oxidative stress, we used cell culture and mouse models of iron overload, as iron can catalyze reactive oxygen species formation in the RPE. Iron-loading of cultured induced pluripotent stem cell-derived RPE cells increased lysosomal abundance, impaired proteolysis and reduced the activity of a subset of lysosomal enzymes, including lysosomal acid lipase (LIPA) and acid sphingomyelinase (SMPD1). In a liver-specific Hepc (Hamp) knockout murine model of systemic iron overload, RPE cells accumulated lipid peroxidation adducts and lysosomes, developed progressive hypertrophy and underwent cell death. Proteomic and lipidomic analyses revealed accumulation of lysosomal proteins, ceramide biosynthetic enzymes and ceramides. The proteolytic enzyme cathepsin D (CTSD) had impaired maturation. A large proportion of lysosomes were galectin-3 (Lgals3) positive, suggesting cytotoxic lysosomal membrane permeabilization. Collectively, these results demonstrate that iron overload induces lysosomal accumulation and impairs lysosomal function, likely due to iron-induced lipid peroxides that can inhibit lysosomal enzymes.

Bioelectrochemistry 2023; 153:108498.

Abstract
Electroporation is a useful tool for the manipulation with the cell membrane permeability. Underlying physicochemical processes taking place at the molecular level during electroporation are relatively well studied. However, various processes remain unknown, one of them is lipid oxidation, a chain reaction that causes degradation of lipids, and might explain the long-lasting membrane permeability after the electric field has ceased. The aim of our study was to observe the differences in the electrical properties of planar lipid bilayers, as in vitro cell membrane models, due to lipid oxidation. Phospholipids were chemically oxidized and oxidation products were analysed using mass spectrometry. Electrical properties, resistance R (Ω) and capacitance C (F) were measured using an LCR meter. Using a previously developed measuring device, a linear increasing signal was applied to a stable bilayer in order to measure its breakdown voltage Ubr (V) and lifetime tbr (µs). We observed an increase in conductance and capacitance of the oxidized planar lipid bilayers when compared to their non-oxidized counterparts. With increasing lipid oxidation, the core of the bilayer becomes more polar, and consequently more permeable. Our findings can explain the long-lasting permeability of the cell membrane after electroporation.

Abstract
Energy transfer to ground state triplet molecular oxygen results in the generation of singlet molecular oxygen (1O2), which has potent oxidizing ability. Irradiation of light, notably ultraviolet A, to a photosensitizing molecule results in the generation of 1O2, which is thought to play a role in causing skin damage and aging. It should also be noted that 1O2 is a dominant tumoricidal component that is generated during the photodynamic therapy (PDT). While type II photodynamic action generates not only 1O2 but also other reactive species, endoperoxides release pure 1O2 upon mild exposure to heat and, hence, are considered to be beneficial compounds for research purposes. Concerning target molecules, 1O2 preferentially reacts with unsaturated fatty acids to produce lipid peroxidation. Enzymes that contain a reactive cysteine group at the catalytic center are vulnerable to 1O2 exposure. Guanine base in nucleic acids is also susceptible to oxidative modification, and cells carrying DNA with oxidized guanine units may experience mutations. Since 1O2 is produced in various physiological reactions in addition to photodynamic reactions, overcoming technical challenges related to its detection and methods used for its generation would allow its potential functions in biological systems to be better understood.

Abstract
The presence of hydrogen peroxide along with ferrous iron produces hydroxyl radicals that preferably oxidize polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) to alkyl radicals (L•). The reaction of L• with an oxygen molecule produces lipid peroxyl radical (LOO•) that collectively trigger chain reactions, which results in the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products (LOOH). Oxygenase enzymes, such as lipoxygenase, also stimulate the peroxidation of PUFA. The production of phospholipid hydroperoxides (P-LOOH) can result in the destruction of the architecture of cell membranes and ultimate cell death. This iron-dependent regulated cell death is generally referred to as ferroptosis. Radical scavengers, which include tocopherol and nitric oxide (•NO), react with lipid radicals and terminate the chain reaction. When tocopherol reductively detoxifies lipid radicals, the resultant tocopherol radicals are recycled via reduction by coenzyme Q or ascorbate. CoQ radicals are reduced back by the anti-ferroptotic enzyme FSP1. •NO reacts with lipid radicals and produces less reactive nitroso compounds. The resulting P-LOOH is reductively detoxified by the action of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) or peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6). The hydrolytic removal of LOOH from P-LOOH by calcium-independent phospholipase A2 leads the preservation of membrane structure. While the expression of such protective genes or the presence of these anti-oxidant compounds serve to maintain a healthy condition, tumor cells employ them to make themselves resistant to anti-tumor treatments. Thus, these defense mechanisms against ferroptosis are protective in ordinary cells but are also potential targets for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Nanomaterials possessing artificial, enzyme-like catalytic activity (nanozymes, NZs) have a great potential for application in research, immunological assays, biosensors, in vivo imaging, and as therapeutic agents. Despite the obvious advances in construction and understanding of functional properties of NZs, there is still no clear evidence of whether they can complement the loss of corresponding enzymatic activity in vivo. Herein, we report the first, to the best to our knowledge, example of successful substitution of natural enzyme activity by catalase-like platinum (nPt) and platinum-gold (nPtAu) nanoparticles transferred to the cells of methylotrophic yeast Ogataea polymorpha. The nPt NZs were synthesized by the chemical reduction method and used as a seed to produce the nPt(core)Au(shell) particles. The produced nPt NZs were 68.1 and 91.3 nm in size, while the hydrids were of 531.2 and 615.1 nm. Both nPt and nPtAu demonstrated catalase activity in vitro. The catalase-deficient strain Ogataea polymorpha C-105 was shown to be able to grow on methanol and a mixture of glucose and methanol in the presence although not in the absence of NZs, this correlating with the decrease in intracellular hydrogen peroxide production. The results provide the first example of complementation of the natural enzyme function by synthetic NZs, the phenomenon which can further be used in a screening for new catalase-like nanozymes and as a fruitful tool to modify living cells by nanoparticles possessing catalytic activity and to use such modified cells as sensitive elements in cell-based biosensors.

Abstract
Long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs), such as the omega-6 (n-6) arachidonic acid (AA) and n-3 docosahexanoic acid (DHA), have a vital role in normal fetal development and placental function. Optimal supply of these LCPUFAs to the fetus is critical for improving birth outcomes and preventing programming of metabolic diseases in later life. Although not explicitly required/recommended, many pregnant women take n-3 LCPUFA supplements. Oxidative stress can cause these LCPUFAs to undergo lipid peroxidation, creating toxic compounds called lipid aldehydes. These by-products can lead to an inflammatory state and negatively impact tissue function, though little is known about their effects on the placenta. Placental exposure to two major lipid aldehydes, 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) and 4-hydroxyhexenal (4-HHE), caused by peroxidation of the AA and DHA, respectively, was examined in the context of lipid metabolism. We assessed the impact of exposure to 25 μM, 50 μM and 100 μM of 4-HNE or 4-HHE on 40 lipid metabolism genes in full-term human placenta. 4-HNE increased gene expression associated with lipogenesis and lipid uptake (ACC, FASN, ACAT1, FATP4), and 4-HHE decreased gene expression associated with lipogenesis and lipid uptake (SREBP1, SREBP2, LDLR, SCD1, MFSD2a). These results demonstrate that these lipid aldehydes differentially affect expression of placental FA metabolism genes in the human placenta and may have implications for the impact of LCPUFA supplementation in environments of oxidative stress.

Abstract
ConspectusLipids are diverse class of small biomolecules represented by a large variety of chemical structures. In addition to the classical biosynthetic routes, lipids can undergo numerous modifications via introduction of small chemical moieties forming hydroxyl, phospho, and nitro derivatives, among others. Such modifications change the physicochemical properties of a parent lipid and usually result in new functionalities either by mediating signaling events or by changing the biophysical properties of lipid membranes. Over the last decades, a large body of evidence indicated the involvement of lipid modifications in a variety of physiological and pathological events. For instance, lipid (per)oxidation for a long time was considered as a hallmark of oxidative stress and related proinflammatory signaling. Recently, however, with the burst in the development of the redox biology field, oxidative modifications of lipids are also recognized as a part of regulatory and adaptive events that are highly specific for particular cell types, tissues, and conditions.The initial diversity of lipid species and the variety of possible lipid modifications result in an extremely large chemical space of the epilipidome, the subset of the natural lipidome formed by enzymatic and non-enzymatic lipid modifications occurring in biological systems. Together with their low natural abundance, structural annotation of modified lipids represents a major analytical challenge limiting the discovery of their natural variety and functions. Furthermore, the number of available chemically characterized standards representing various modified lipid species remains limited, making analytical and functional studies very challenging. Over the past decade we have developed and implemented numerous analytical methods to study lipid modifications and applied them in the context of different biological conditions. In this Account, we outline the development and evolution of modern mass-spectrometry-based techniques for the structural elucidation of modified/oxidized lipids and corresponding applications. Research of our group is mostly focused on redox biology, and thus, our primary interest was always the analysis of lipid modifications introduced by redox disbalance, including lipid peroxidation (LPO), oxygenation, nitration, and glycation. To this end, we developed an array of analytical solutions to measure carbonyls derived from LPO, oxidized and nitrated fatty acid derivatives, and oxidized and glycated complex lipids. We will briefly describe the main analytical challenges along with corresponding solutions developed by our group toward deciphering the complexity of natural epilipdomes, starting from in vitro-oxidized lipid mixtures, artificial membranes, and lipid droplets, to illustrate the diversity of lipid modifications in the context of metabolic diseases and ferroptotic cell death.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third among fatal diseases afflicting mankind globally due to the shortage of primary detection methods and appropriate choice of drugs. Moreover, current treatments such as chemo drugs and radiotherapies create adverse effects and lead to drug resistance. In this context, recent advances in nanomedicine offer novel clinical solutions for colon cancer therapy. The current study denotes the therapeutic roles of biogenic Abutilon indicum silver and gold nanoparticles (AIAgNPs and AIAuNPs) against a 1, 2-dimethyl hydrazine (DMH)-induced CRC in Wistar rats. Following treatment of nanoparticles (NPs), the CRC rats showed great localization of AIAgNPs and AIAuNPs in colon tumors shown by ICP-OES, indicating their bioavailability. The AIAgNPs and AIAuNPs significantly enhanced cellular antioxidant enzyme levels including catalase, SOD, GSH, GPx and reduced lipid peroxidation (LPO) compared to the standard drug paclitaxel. AIAgNPs and AIAuNPs revealed significant protection against metastasis compared to paclitaxel shown in the histopathological study. The important CRC signaling molecules of the Wnt pathway, the β-catenin and Tcf-4 levels were significantly downregulated in AIAgNPs and AIAuNPs treated CRC rats compared to paclitaxel. Furthermore, the expression levels of cleaved apoptotic caspase-9, -8, and - 3 and lamins were significantly upregulated in AIAgNPs and AIAuNPs treated CRC rats compared to paclitaxel. This preclinical study provides substantial insights into the anti-colon cancer roles of biogenic NPs and gives an idea for targeting different cancers.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease, type 2 diabetes, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) constitute increasingly prevalent disorders. Individuals with type 2 diabetes are well-known to be susceptible to Alzheimer's disease. Although the pathogenesis of each disorder is multifactorial and the causal relation remains poorly understood, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced lipid and protein oxidation conceivably plays a common role. Lipid peroxidation product was recently reported to be a key factor also for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, because of inducing hepatocyte degeneration/death. Here, we focus on implication of the representative lipid-peroxidation product 'hydroxynonenal' for the cell degeneration/death of brain, pancreas, and liver. Since Hsp70.1 has dual roles as a chaperone and lysosomal membrane stabilizer, hydroxynonenal-mediated oxidative injury (carbonylation) of Hsp70.1 was highlighted. After intake of high-fat diets, oxidation of free fatty acids in mitochondria generates ROS which enhance oxidation of ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) involved within biomembranes and generate hydroxynonenal. In addition, hydroxynonenal is generated during cooking deep-fried foods with vegetable oils especially containing linoleic acids. These intrinsic and exogenous hydroxynonenal synergically causes an increase in its serum and organ levels to induce Hsp70.1 oxidation. As it is amphiphilic; being water-soluble but displays strong lipophilic characteristics, hydroxynonenal can diffuse within the cells and react with targets like senile and/or atheromatous plaques outside the cells. Hydroxynonenal can deepen and expand lysosomal injuries by facilitating 'calpain-mediated cleavage of the carbonylated Hsp70.1'. Despite the unique anatomical, physiological, and biochemical characteristics of each organ for its specific disease, there should be a common cascade of the cell degeneration/death which is caused by hydroxynonenal. This review aims to implicate hydroxynonenal-mediated Hsp70.1 carbonylation for lysosomal membrane permeabilization/rupture and the resultant cathepsin leakage for inducing cell degeneration/death. Given the tremendous number of worldwide people suffering various lifestyle-related diseases, it is valuable to consider how ω-6 PUFA-rich vegetable oils is implicated for the organ disorder.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) causes infections and can be fatal. In the long-term struggle against antibiotics, S. aureus has acquired resistance toward antibiotics and become more difficult to kill. Metabolomics could directly reflect the responses of S. aureus toward antibiotics, which is effective for studying the resistance mechanism of S. aureus. In this study, based on a nontargeted metabolic figure printing technique, the metabolome of a pair of isogenic methicillin-susceptible and resistant S. aureus strains ATCC25923 (MSSA) and ATCC43300 (MRSA) treated with or without oxacillin was characterized. 7 and 29 significantly changed metabolites in MRSA and MSSA were identified by combined accurate mass and mass fragmentation analysis. Pathway enrichment analysis suggested that DNA repair and flavin biosynthesis are the universal pathways of both MSSA and MRSA under antibiotic stress. MRSA systematically and effectively fights against oxacillin through precise control of energy production, PBP2a substrate biosynthesis and antioxidant function. In contrast, MSSA lacks effective defense pathways against oxacillin. The different metabolome responses of MSSA and MRSA toward antibiotics provide us with new insights into how S. aureus develops antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
Over the past decade, mounting evidence has shown an alarming association between male subfertility and poor somatic health, with substantial evidence supporting the increased incidence of oncological disease, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders and autoimmune diseases in men who have previously received a subfertility diagnosis. This paradigm is concerning, but might also provide a novel window for a crucial health reform in which the infertile phenotype could serve as an indication of potential pathological conditions. One of the major limiting factors in this association is the poor understanding of the molecular features that link infertility with comorbidities across the life course. Enzymes involved in the lipid oxidation process might provide novel clues to reconcile the mechanistic basis of infertility with incident pathological conditions. Building research capacity in this area is essential to enhance the early detection of disease states and provide crucial information about the disease risk of offspring conceived through assisted reproduction.

Abstract
Cancer progression is closely linked to oxidative stress (OS) inflammation. OS is caused by an imbalance between the amount of reactive oxygen species produced and antioxidants present in the body. Excess ROS either oxidizes biomolecules or activates the signaling cascade, resulting in inflammation. Immune cells secrete cytokines and chemokines when inflammation is activated. These signaling molecules attract a wide range of immune cells to the site of infection or oxidative stress. Similarly, increased ROS production by immune cells at the inflamed site causes oxidative stress in the affected area. A review on the role of oxidative stress and inflammation in cancer-related literature was conducted to obtain data. All of the information gathered was focused on the current state of oxidative stress and inflammation in various cancers. After gathering all relevant information, a narrative review was created to provide a detailed note on oxidative stress and inflammation in cancer. Proliferation, differentiation, angiogenesis, migration, invasion, metabolic changes, and evasion of programmed cell death are all aided by OS and inflammation in cancer. Imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants lead to oxidative stress that damages macromolecules (nucleic acids, lipids and proteins). It causes breakdown of the biological signaling cascade. Prolonged oxidative stress causes inflammation by activating transcription factors (NF-κB, p53, HIF-1α, PPAR-γ, Nrf2, AP-1) that alter the expression of many other genes and proteins, including growth factors, tumor-suppressor genes, oncogenes, and pro-inflammatory cytokines, resulting in cancer cell survival. The present review article examines the complex relationship between OS and inflammation in certain types of cancer (colorectal, breast, lung, bladder, and gastric cancer).

Abstract
The aggregation of α-synuclein (α-syn) into neurotoxic oligomers and fibrils is an important pathogenic feature of synucleinopatheis, including Parkinson's disease (PD). A further characteristic of PD is the oxidative stress that results in the formation of aldehydes by lipid peroxidation. It has been reported that the brains of deceased patients with PD contain high levels of protein oligomers that are cross-linked to these aldehydes. Increasing evidence also suggests that prefibrillar oligomeric species are more toxic than the mature amyloid fibrils. However, due to the heterogenous and metastable nature, characterization of the α-syn oligomeric species has been challenging. Here, we generated and characterized distinct α-syn oligomers in vitro in the presence of DA and lipid peroxidation products 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and 4-oxo-2-nonenal (ONE). HNE and ONE oligomer were stable towards the treatment with SDS, urea, and temperature. The secondary structure analysis revealed that only HNE and ONE oligomers contain β-sheet content. In the seeding assay, both DA and ONE oligomers significantly accelerated the aggregation. Furthermore, all oligomeric preparations were found to seed the aggregation of α-syn monomers in vitro and found to be cytotoxic when added to SH-SY5Y cells. Finally, both HNE and ONE α-syn oligomers can be used as a calibrator in an α-syn oligomers-specific ELISA.

Membrane Lipid Reshaping Underlies Oxidative Stress Sensing by the Mitochondrial Proteins UCP1 and ANT1. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11122314.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and ROS are important players in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases. In addition to directly altering proteins, ROS also affects lipids with negative intrinsic curvature such as phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), producing PE adducts and lysolipids. The formation of PE adducts potentiates the protonophoric activity of mitochondrial uncoupling proteins, but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, we linked the ROS-mediated change in lipid shape to the mechanical properties of the membrane and the function of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) and adenine nucleotide translocase 1 (ANT1). We show that the increase in the protonophoric activity of both proteins occurs due to the decrease in bending modulus in lipid bilayers in the presence of lysophosphatidylcholines (OPC and MPC) and PE adducts. Moreover, MD simulations showed that modified PEs and lysolipids change the lateral pressure profile of the membrane in the same direction and by the similar amplitude, indicating that modified PEs act as lipids with positive intrinsic curvature. Both results indicate that oxidative stress decreases stored curvature elastic stress (SCES) in the lipid bilayer membrane. We demonstrated that UCP1 and ANT1 sense SCES and proposed a novel regulatory mechanism for the function of these proteins. The new findings should draw the attention of the scientific community to this important and unexplored area of redox biochemistry.

Post-Translational Modifications Evoked by Reactive Carbonyl Species in Ultraviolet-A-Exposed Skin: Implication in Fibroblast Senescence and Skin Photoaging. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11112281.

Abstract
Photoaging is an accelerated form of aging resulting from skin exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UV-A radiation deeply penetrates the dermis and triggers the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which promotes damage to DNA, lipids and proteins. Lipid peroxidation results from the oxidative attack of polyunsaturated fatty acids which generate a huge amount of lipid peroxidation products, among them reactive carbonyl species (RCS) such as α, β-unsaturated hydroxyalkenals (e.g., 4-hydroxynonenal), acrolein or malondialdehyde. These highly reactive agents form adducts on free NH2 groups and thiol residues on amino acids in proteins and can also modify DNA and phospholipids. The accumulation of RCS-adducts leads to carbonyl stress characterized by progressive cellular and tissular dysfunction, inflammation and toxicity. RCS-adducts are formed in the dermis of skin exposed to UV-A radiation. Several RCS targets have been identified in the dermis, such as collagen and elastin in the extracellular matrix, whose modification could contribute to actinic elastosis lesions. RCS-adducts may play a role in fibroblast senescence via the modification of histones, and the sirtuin SIRT1, leading to an accumulation of acetylated proteins. The cytoskeleton protein vimentin is modified by RCS, which could impair fibroblast motility. A better identification of protein modification and carbonyl stress in the dermis may help to develop new treatment approaches for preventing photoaging.

Carvacrol Inhibits Expression of Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 7 Channels and Alleviates Zinc Neurotoxicity Induced by Traumatic Brain Injury. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232213840.

Abstract
Carvacrol is a monoterpenoid phenol produced by aromatic plants such as oregano. Although the exact mechanism by which carvacrol acts has not yet been established, it appears to inhibit transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7), which modulates the homeostasis of metal ions such as zinc and calcium. Several studies have demonstrated that carvacrol has protective effects against zinc neurotoxicity after ischemia and epilepsy. However, to date, no studies have investigated the effect of carvacrol on traumatic brain injury (TBI)-induced zinc neurotoxicity. In the present study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of carvacrol for the prevention of zinc-induced neuronal death after TBI. Rats were subjected to a controlled cortical impact, and carvacrol was injected at a dose of 50 mg/kg. Histological analysis was performed at 12 h, 24 h, and 7 days after TBI. We found that carvacrol reduced TBI-induced TRPM7 over-expression and free zinc accumulation. As a result, subsequent oxidative stress, dendritic damage, and neuronal degeneration were decreased. Moreover, carvacrol not only reduced microglial activation and delayed neuronal death but also improved neurological outcomes after TBI. Taken together, these findings suggest that carvacrol administration may have therapeutic potential after TBI by preventing neuronal death through the inhibition of TRPM7 expression and alleviation of zinc neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Conversion of primary amino groups to pyrrole derivatives occurs by modifying lysine residues of proteins with lipid peroxidation products. Pyrrolated proteins exhibit electronegativity and electronic properties and are recognized by DNA-binding molecules, such as anti-DNA autoantibodies and DNA intercalators. This review summarizes the state of knowledge about the chemistry of this unique conversion reaction of proteins into DNA mimetics by lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
Bacteria capable of producing electricity in intestinal microbiota have been discovered. However, no studies have explored butyric acid which generated by electrogenic bacteria on the host organism have significant physiological impacts on certain organs. We found that the capacity for electrical current generation by the commensal gut Leuconostoc mesenteroides EH-1 (L. mesenteroides EH-1) during glucose fermentation. The electricity production was essential for the gut colonization of L. mesenteroides EH-1 since the inhibition of electricity production by cyclophilin A inhibitor (TMN355) significantly diminished the number of bacteria attached to the human gut epithelial cell surface. The adipocyte differentiation contributes to the increased 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE), considered as a biomarker of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The effect of intestinal electrogenic microbiota in the high-fat diet (HFD)-induced 4-HNE and abdominal fat accumulation in mice was investigated in this study. The oral administration of glucose with a butyric acid-producing L. mesenteroides EH-1 bacterium attenuated the expression of 4-HNE and abdominal fat. The level of 4-HNE and abdominal fat depot were markedly increased in mice administered with cyclophilin A inhibitor-pretreated bacteria or GLPG-0974, an antagonist of free fatty acid receptor 2 (Ffar2). Our studies suggest a novel means by which the probiotic bacteria can modulate fat mass deposition and oxidative stress via the cyclophilin A-mediated electron production and the butyric acid-activated Ffar2 pathway.

Abstract
Hyposmia is a prevalent prodromal feature of Parkinson's disease (PD), though the neuropathology that underlies this symptom is poorly understood. Unlike the substantia nigra, the status of metal homeostasis in the olfactory bulbs has not been characterized in PD. Given the increasing interest in metal modulation as a therapeutic avenue in PD, we sought to investigate bulbar metals and the effect of AT434 (formerly PBT434) an orally bioavailable, small molecule modulator of metal homeostasis on hyposmia in a mouse model of parkinsonism (the tau knockout (tau-/-) mouse). 5.5 (pre-hyposmia) and 13.5-month-old (pre-motor) mice were dosed with ATH434 (30 mg/kg/day, oral gavage) for 6 weeks. Animals then underwent behavioral analysis for olfactory and motor phenotypes. The olfactory bulbs and the substantia nigra were then collected and analyzed for metal content, synaptic markers, and dopaminergic cell number. ATH434 was able to prevent the development of hyposmia in young tau-/- mice, which coincided with a reduction in bulbar iron and copper levels, an increase in synaptophysin, and a reduction in soluble α-synuclein. ATH434 was able to prevent the development of motor impairment in aged tau-/- mice, which coincided with a reduction in iron levels and reduced neurodegeneration in the substantia nigra. These data implicate metal dyshomeostasis in parkinsonian olfactory deficits, and champion a potential clinical benefit of ATH434 in both prodromal and clinical stages of PD.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that sea cucumber ether phospholipids (ether-PLs) can modulate high-fat diet (HFD)-induced metabolic disorders. However, whether this modulation is associated with metabolic pathways related to oxidative stress and inflammation remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects on HFD-fed mice and the associated metabolism pathways in response to administration with sea cucumber ether-PLs using integrated biochemistry and a metabolomics approach. Biochemistry analysis and histological examinations showed that sea cucumber ether-PLs significantly decreased body weight gain and fat deposition in tissues. PE-P was superior to PC-O in alleviating reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and inflammatory responses (IL-6, TNF-α and MCP-1) in the HFD-induced mouse model. Serum metabolomics analysis revealed that it upregulated four metabolites and downregulated twenty-four metabolites compared to those in HFD mice after ether-PL administration. Pathway analysis indicated that sea cucumber ether-PLs alleviate the HFD-induced inflammation and oxidative stress by three main metabolic pathways, namely fatty acid metabolism, branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism, and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) metabolism. Taken together, sea cucumber ether-PLs showed great potential to become a natural functional food against oxidative stress and inflammation caused by HFD.

Abstract
Recent advancements and growing attention about free radicals (ROS) and redox signaling enable the scientific fraternity to consider their involvement in the pathophysiology of inflammatory diseases, metabolic disorders, and neurological defects. Free radicals increase the concentration of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in the biological system through different endogenous sources and thus increased the overall oxidative stress. An increase in oxidative stress causes cell death through different signaling mechanisms such as mitochondrial impairment, cell-cycle arrest, DNA damage response, inflammation, negative regulation of protein, and lipid peroxidation. Thus, an appropriate balance between free radicals and antioxidants becomes crucial to maintain physiological function. Since the 1brain requires high oxygen for its functioning, it is highly vulnerable to free radical generation and enhanced ROS in the brain adversely affects axonal regeneration and synaptic plasticity, which results in neuronal cell death. In addition, increased ROS in the brain alters various signaling pathways such as apoptosis, autophagy, inflammation and microglial activation, DNA damage response, and cell-cycle arrest, leading to memory and learning defects. Mounting evidence suggests the potential involvement of micro-RNAs, circular-RNAs, natural and dietary compounds, synthetic inhibitors, and heat-shock proteins as therapeutic agents to combat neurological diseases. Herein, we explain the mechanism of free radical generation and its role in mitochondrial, protein, and lipid peroxidation biology. Further, we discuss the negative role of free radicals in synaptic plasticity and axonal regeneration through the modulation of various signaling molecules and also in the involvement of free radicals in various neurological diseases and their potential therapeutic approaches. The primary cause of free radical generation is drug overdosing, industrial air pollution, toxic heavy metals, ionizing radiation, smoking, alcohol, pesticides, and ultraviolet radiation. Excessive generation of free radicals inside the cell R1Q1 increases reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, which causes oxidative damage. An increase in oxidative damage alters different cellular pathways and processes such as mitochondrial impairment, DNA damage response, cell cycle arrest, and inflammatory response, leading to pathogenesis and progression of neurodegenerative disease other neurological defects.

Sirtuin 3 Deficiency Aggravates Kidney Disease in Response to High-Fat Diet through Lipotoxicity-Induced Mitochondrial Damage. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23158345. [PMID: 35955472 PMCID: PMC9368634 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23158345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Revised: 07/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is the primary mitochondrial deacetylase that controls the antioxidant pathway and energy metabolism. We previously found that renal Sirt3 expression and activity were reduced in mice with type 2 diabetic nephropathy associated with oxidative stress and mitochondrial abnormalities and that a specific SIRT3 activator improved renal damage. SIRT3 is modulated by diet, and to assess whether Sirt3 deficiency aggravates mitochondrial damage and accelerates kidney disease in response to nutrient overloads, wild-type (WT) and Sirt3−/− mice were fed a high-fat-diet (HFD) or standard diet for 8 months. Sirt3−/− mice on HFD exhibited earlier and more severe albuminuria compared to WT mice, accompanied by podocyte dysfunction and glomerular capillary rarefaction. Mesangial matrix expansion, tubular vacuolization and inflammation, associated with enhanced lipid accumulation, were more evident in Sirt3−/− mice. After HFD, kidneys from Sirt3−/− mice showed more oxidative stress than WT mice, mitochondria ultrastructural damage in tubular cells, and a reduction in mitochondrial mass and energy production. Our data demonstrate that Sirt3 deficiency renders mice more prone to developing oxidative stress and mitochondrial abnormalities in response to HFD, resulting in more severe kidney diseases, and this suggests that mitochondria protection may be a method to prevent HFD-induced renal injury.

Lipid Peroxidation Produces a Diverse Mixture of Saturated and Unsaturated Aldehydes in Exhaled Breath That Can Serve as Biomarkers of Lung Cancer-A Review. Metabolites 2022; 12:metabo12060561. [PMID: 35736492 PMCID: PMC9229171 DOI: 10.3390/metabo12060561] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids is a widely recognized metabolic process that creates a complex mixture of volatile organic compounds including aldehydes. Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species in cancer cells promote random lipid peroxidation, which leads to a variety of aldehydes. In the case of lung cancer, many of these volatile aldehydes are exhaled and are of interest as potential markers of the disease. Relevant studies reporting aldehydes in the exhaled breath of lung cancer patients were collected for this review by searching the PubMed and SciFindern databases until 25 May 2022. Information on breath test results, including the biomarker collection, preconcentration, and quantification methods, was extracted and tabulated. Overall, 44 studies were included spanning a period of 34 years. The data show that, as a class, aldehydes are significantly elevated in the breath of lung cancer patients at all stages of the disease relative to healthy control subjects. The type of aldehyde detected and/or deemed to be a biomarker is highly dependent on the method of exhaled breath sampling and analysis. Unsaturated aldehydes, detected primarily when derivatized during preconcentration, are underrepresented as biomarkers given that they are also likely products of lipid peroxidation. Pentanal, hexanal, and heptanal were the most reported aldehydes in studies of exhaled breath from lung cancer patients.

Abstract
The oxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonic and linoleic acid through enzymes like lipoxygenases (LOXs) are common and often leads to the production of various bioactive lipids that are important both in acute inflammation and its resolution and thus in disease progression. Amongst the several isoforms of LOX that are expressed in mammals, 15-lipoxygenase (15-LOX) has shown to be crucial in the context of inflammation. Moreover, being expressed in cells of the immune system, as well as in epithelial cells; the enzyme has been shown to crosstalk with a number of important signalling pathways. Mounting evidences from recent reports suggest that 15-LOX has anti-cancer activities which are dependent or independent of its metabolites, and is executed through several downstream pathways like cGMP, PPAR, p53, p21 and NAG-1. However, it is still unclear whether the up-regulation of 15-LOX is associated with cancer cell apoptosis. Monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A), on the other hand, is a mitochondrial flavoenzyme which is believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and inflammation and in many other neurological disorders. MAO-A has also been reported as a potential therapeutic target in different types of cancers like prostate cancer, lung cancer etc. In this review, we discussed about the role of fatty acids and their lipid mediators in cancer cell apoptosis. Here we particularly focused on the contribution of oxidative enzymes like 15-LOX and MAO-A in mediating apoptosis in lung cancer cell after fatty acid induction.

Abstract
The formation of a functional circuitry in the central nervous system (CNS) requires the correct number and subtypes of neural cells. In the developing brain, neural stem cells (NSCs) self-renew while giving rise to progenitors that in turn generate differentiated progeny. As such, the size and the diversity of cells that make up the functional CNS depend on the proliferative properties of NSCs. In the fruit fly Drosophila, where the process of neurogenesis has been extensively investigated, extrinsic factors such as the microenvironment of NSCs, nutrients, oxygen levels and systemic signals have been identified as regulators of NSC proliferation. Here, we review decades of work that explores how extrinsic signals non-autonomously regulate key NSC characteristics such as quiescence, proliferation and termination in the fly.
