Abstract
Microsomal glutathione transferase 1 (MGST1) is a member of the MAPEG family (membrane associated proteins in eicosanoid and glutathione metabolism), defined according to enzymatic activities, sequence motifs, and structural properties. MGST1 is a homotrimer which can bind three molecules of glutathione (GSH), with one modified to a thiolate anion displaying one-third-of-sites-reactivity. MGST1 has both glutathione transferase and peroxidase activities. Each is based on stabilizing the GSH thiolate in the same active site. MGST1 is abundant in the liver and displays a broad subcellular distribution with high levels in endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrial membranes, consistent with a physiological role in protection from reactive electrophilic intermediates and oxidative stress. In this review paper, we particularly focus on recent advances made in understanding MGST1 activation, induction, broad subcellular distribution, and the role of MGST1 in apoptosis, ferroptosis, cancer progression, and therapeutic responses.

Liver mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane proteomics for studying the effects of ZiBuPiYin recipe on Zucker diabetic fatty rats after chronic psychological stress. Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 10:995732.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex metabolic disease with multiple etiologies, involving both genetic and environmental factors. With changes associated with modern life, increasing attention has been paid to chronic psychological stressors such as work stress. Chronic psychological stress can induce or aggravate diabetes mellitus, and conversely, with the deterioration of T2DM, patients often experience different degrees of depression, anxiety, and other negative emotions. In order to clarify the role of ZiBuPiYin recipe (ZBPYR) in regulating the liver mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane proteome to improve T2DM with chronic psychological stress, differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified among Zucker lean littermates (control group), chronic psychological stress T2DM rats (model group), and ZBPYR administration rats (ZBPYR group) through iTRAQ with LC-MS/MS. Using Mfuzz soft clustering analysis, DEPs were divided into six different clusters. Clusters 1–6 contained 5, 68, 44, 57, 28, and 32 DEPs, respectively. Given that ZBPYR can alleviate T2DM symptoms and affect exploratory behavior during T2DM with chronic psychological stress, we focused on the clusters with opposite expression trends between model:control and ZBPYR:model groups. We screened out the DEPs in clusters 1, 3, and 4, which may be good candidates for the prevention and treatment of T2DM with chronic psychological stress, and further conducted bioinformatics analyses. DEPs were mainly involved in the insulin signaling pathway, oxidative phosphorylation, tricarboxylic acid cycle, amino acid metabolism, lysosome-related processes, and lipid metabolism. This may indicate the pathogenic basis of T2DM with chronic psychological stress and the potential therapeutic mechanism of ZBPYR. In addition, two key proteins, lysosome-associated protein (Lamp2) and tricarboxylic acid cycle-related protein (Suclg1), may represent novel biomarkers for T2DM with chronic psychological stress and drug targets of ZBPYR. Western blot analyses also showed similar expression patterns of these two proteins in liver MAMs of the model and ZBPYR groups.

Abstract
High-fat diet could lead to a series of metabolic diseases, including obesity, and its mechanism is not clear. In this study, the rabbit individuals were fed with high-fat diet, the liver tissues were collected, high-throughput sequencing technology was used to reveal the expression of lncRNA and miRNA difference, and the molecular regulation mechanism of lncRNA-miRNA. A total of 24,615 DE lncRNAs and 52 DE miRNAs were identified, including 15 novel discovered DE miRNAs (5 upregulated and 10 downregulated). Furthermore, five miRNAs and three mRNAs were verified by qRT-PCR, and the results showed that the expression of the DE miRNAs and DE lncRNAs in the two groups was consistent with our sequencing results. GO and KEGG analyzed 7,57,139 target genes respectively, enriching the pathways related to lipid metabolism, including mucin O-glycan biosynthesis pathway, insulin resistance and glucagon signaling pathway. Moreover, 65 targeting relationships were obtained. Among them, LOC103348122/miR-450a-5p, LOC103350359/miR-450a-3p and LOC103350429/miR-148a-5p were proposed the first time. Significantly, LOC103348122/miR-450a-5p and LOC103350429/miR-148a-5p were related to lipid metabolism in the liver. This study is of great significance to the CeRNA regulatory network related to lipid metabolism in the liver of rabbits, and provides a basis for understanding hepatic steatosis in rabbits.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major health burden in the aging society with an urging medical need for a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and mitochondrial‐derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) are considered critical in the development of hepatic steatosis, the hallmark of NAFLD. Our study addressed in C57BL/6J mice the effect of high fat diet feeding and age on liver mitochondria at an early stage of NAFLD development. We therefore analyzed functional characteristics of hepatic mitochondria and associated alterations in the mitochondrial proteome in response to high fat feeding in adolescent, young adult, and middle‐aged mice. Susceptibility to diet‐induced obesity increased with age. Young adult and middle‐aged mice developed fatty liver, but not adolescent mice. Fat accumulation was negatively correlated with an age‐related reduction in mitochondrial mass and aggravated by a reduced capacity of fatty acid oxidation in high fat‐fed mice. Irrespective of age, high fat diet increased ROS production in hepatic mitochondria associated with a balanced nuclear factor erythroid‐derived 2 like 2 (NFE2L2) dependent antioxidative response, most likely triggered by reduced tethering of NFE2L2 to mitochondrial phosphoglycerate mutase 5. Age indirectly influenced mitochondrial function by reducing mitochondrial mass, thus exacerbating diet‐induced fat accumulation. Therefore, consideration of age in metabolic studies must be emphasized.

Abstract
Diabetes increases the risk of Cardio-vascular disease (CVD). CVD is more prevalent in type 2 diabetes (T2D) than type 1 diabetes (T1D), but the mortality risk is higher in T1D than in T2D. The pathophysiology of CVD in T1D is poorly defined. To learn more about biological pathways that are potentially involved in T1D with cardiac dysfunction, we sought to identify differentially expressed genes in the T1D heart. Our study used T1D mice with severe hyperglycemia along with significant deficits in echocardiographic measurements. Microarray analysis of heart tissue RNA revealed that the T1D mice differentially expressed 10 genes compared to control. Using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), we showed that these genes were significantly involved in ketogenesis, cardiovascular disease, apoptosis and other toxicology functions. Of these 10 genes, the 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl-CoA Synthase 2 (HMGCS2) was the highest upregulated gene in T1D heart. IPA analysis showed that HMGCS2 was center to many biological networks and pathways. Our data also suggested that apart from heart, the expression of HMGCS2 was also different in kidney and spleen between control and STZ treated mice. In conclusion, The HMGCS2 molecule may potentially be involved in T1D induced cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
Metabolic disorders such as obesity and diabetes are nowadays regarded as diseases affecting majority of population. These diseases develop gradually over time in an individual. Recently, systematic experiments tracking disease progression are conducted giving a high-throughput complex data. There is a pressing need for developing methods to analyze this complex data to capture the disease mechanism at molecular level. Diseases usually develop through perturbations of biological processes in an organism. In this study, we have tried to capture the interlinking between different biological processes that work together to regulate the disease phenotype. Here, we have considered a temporal microarray data from an experiment conducted to study obesity and diabetes in mice. We have analyzed the data to obtain perturbed biological processes and developed methods to establish link between these perturbed biological processes. We have derived a mathematical formula to score genes and identified a significant set of genes regulating such a complex process network. The methods developed in our study are also applicable to a broad array of data types.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is among the most common liver diseases. Oxidative stress is one of the pathogenic mechanisms contributing to the progression of simple fatty liver to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is a mitochondrial antioxidative enzyme and here its expression in rodent and human NAFLD has been analyzed. MnSOD is found reduced in the liver of male mice fed a high fat diet and male ob/ob mice. Female mice fed an atherogenic diet to induce NASH have MnSOD protein levels comparable to controls. In a cohort of 30 controls, 41 patients with fatty liver and 39 NASH patients, MnSOD mRNA is significantly lower in the steatotic and NASH liver. When analyzed in both genders separately reduction of MnSOD expression is only found in males. Here, MnSOD mRNA negatively correlates with steatosis grade but not with extent of fibrosis or inflammation. MnSOD is, however, not reduced in primary human hepatocytes (PHH) treated with palmitate or oleate to increase cellular triglycerides. Lipopolysaccharide, TNF, IL-6, TGFβ and leptin which are all raised in NAFLD do not affect MnSOD in PHH. Adiponectin which attenuates oxidative stress partly by increasing MnSOD in macrophages does not induce MnSOD in PHH. In summary, current data show that hepatic MnSOD is reduced in male but not female humans and rodents with NAFLD.
