Xu Q, Li J, Yang Y, Zhuo L, Gao H, Jiang S, Li W. Prevalence and prognosis of malignancy in THSD7A-associated membranous nephropathy: a systematic literature review and clinical case study. Ren Fail 2024; 46:2355353. [PMID: 38785304 PMCID: PMC11132978 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2024.2355353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the incidence and prognosis of malignancy in individuals with thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A)-associated membranous nephropathy (MN). METHODS First, we performed a systematic literature review of prevalence of malignancy in THSD7A-associated MN. Then, we conducted a retrospective analysis of 454 patients diagnosed with MN through renal biopsy at our hospital between January 2016 and December 2020. We assessed the presence of serum anti-THSD7A antibodies and performed immunohistochemical staining of renal tissue for THSD7A. Subsequently, we followed patients with THSD7A-associated MN for a minimum of 3-5 years, collecting their clinical, pathological characteristics, and prognosis. Additionally, we conducted a literature review on patients with THSD7A-associated MN in conjunction with malignancy. RESULTS We identified a total of nine articles containing comprehensive data on THSD7A-associated MN and malignancy. Among 235 patients with THSD7A-positive MN, 36 individuals had concurrent malignancies, resulting in a malignancy prevalence of 13.3% (95% CI: 8.9-17.7%). In our center, we followed up with 15 patients diagnosed with THSD7A-associated MN and observed three cases of concomitant tumors: two cases of lung adenocarcinoma and one case of small cell lung cancer with multiple metastases. The prevalence of malignancy in our cohort was 20%. Notably, we detected positive THSD7A staining in both renal and lung cancer tissues in one patient with small cell lung cancer. CONCLUSIONS Patients with THSD7A-associated MN should undergo vigilant follow-up assessments, with a particular focus on actively seeking potential tumorigenic lesions to prevent misdiagnosis or oversight.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common cause of heart failure. However, the role of cellular senescence in DCM has not been fully elucidated. Here, we aimed to investigate senescence in DCM, identify senescence related characteristic genes, and explore the potential small molecule compounds for DCM treatment. METHODS DCM-associated datasets and senescence-related genes were respectively obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and CellAge database. The characteristic genes were identified through methods including weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and random forest. The expression of characteristic genes was verified in the mouse DCM model. Moreover, the CIBERSORT algorithm was applied to analyze immune characteristics of DCM. Finally, several therapeutic compounds were predicted by CMap analysis, and the potential mechanism of chlorogenic acid (CGA) was investigated by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation. RESULTS Three DCM- and senescence-related characteristic genes (MME, GNMT and PLA2G2A) were ultimately identified through comprehensive transcriptome analysis, and were experimentally verified in the doxorubicin induced mouse DCM. Meanwhile, the established diagnostic model, derived from dataset analysis, showed ideal diagnostic performance for DCM. Immune cell infiltration analysis suggested dysregulation of inflammation in DCM, and the characteristic genes were significantly associated with invasive immune cells. Finally, based on the specific gene expression profile of DCM, several potential therapeutic compounds were predicted through CMap analysis. In addition, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations suggested that CGA could bind to the active pocket of MME protein. CONCLUSION Our study presents three characteristic genes (MME, PLA2G2A, and GNMT) and a novel senescence-based diagnostic nomogram, and discusses potential therapeutic compounds, providing new insights into the diagnosis and treatment of DCM.

Eur J Cell Biol 2024; 103:151438.

Abstract
The knowledge about cellular senescence expands dynamically, providing more and more conclusive evidence of its triggers, mechanisms, and consequences. Senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), one of the most important functional traits of senescent cells, is responsible for a large extent of their context-dependent activity. Both SASP's components and signaling pathways are well-defined. A literature review shows, however, that a relatively underinvestigated aspect of senescent cell autocrine and paracrine activity is the change in the production of proteins responsible for the reception and transmission of SASP signals, i.e., receptors and binding proteins. For this reason, we present in this article the current state of knowledge regarding senescence-associated changes in cellular receptors and insulin-like growth factor binding proteins. We also discuss the role of these alterations in senescence induction and maintenance, pro-cancerogenic effects of senescent cells, and aging-related structural and functional malfunctions.

Ectodomain shedding of PLA2R1 is mediated by the metalloproteases ADAM10 and ADAM17. J Biol Chem 2024; 300:107480.

Abstract
Phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) is a 180-kDa transmembrane protein that plays a role in inflammation and cancer and is the major autoantigen in membranous nephropathy, a rare but severe autoimmune kidney disease. A soluble form of PLA2R1 has been detected in mouse and human serum. It is likely produced by proteolytic shedding of membrane-bound PLA2R1 but the mechanism is unknown. Here, we show that human PLA2R1 is cleaved by A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease 10 (ADAM10) and ADAM17 in HEK293 cells, mouse embryonic fibroblasts, and human podocytes. By combining site-directed mutagenesis and sequencing, we determined the exact cleavage site within the extracellular juxtamembrane stalk of human PLA2R1. Orthologs and paralogs of PLA2R1 are also shed. By using pharmacological inhibitors and genetic approaches with RNA interference and knock-out cellular models, we identified a major role of ADAM10 in the constitutive shedding of PLA2R1 and a dual role of ADAM10 and ADAM17 in the stimulated shedding. We did not observe evidence for cleavage by β- or γ-secretase, suggesting that PLA2R1 may not be a substrate for regulated intramembrane proteolysis. PLA2R1 shedding occurs constitutively and can be triggered by the calcium ionophore ionomycin, the protein kinase C activator PMA, cytokines, and lipopolysaccharides, in vitro and in vivo. Altogether, our results show that PLA2R1 is a novel substrate for ADAM10 and ADAM17, producing a soluble form that is increased in inflammatory conditions and likely exerts various functions in physiological and pathophysiological conditions including inflammation, cancer, and membranous nephropathy.

Abstract
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a glomerular disease mediated by autoimmune complex deposition, with approximately 30% of cases attributed to secondary causes. Among them, malignant tumors are a significant cause of secondary MN. Recent advancements in the identification of MN-specific antigens, such as THSD7A and NELL-1, suggest a potential association with malignant tumors, yet definitive proof of this relationship remains elusive. Therefore, this article aims to review the distribution of MN-specific antigens in patients with MN caused by malignant tumors and the possible role of these antigens in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a cell program induced by various stresses that leads to a stable proliferation arrest and to a senescence-associated secretory phenotype. Accumulation of senescent cells during age-related diseases participates in these pathologies and regulates healthy lifespan. Recent evidences point out a global dysregulated intracellular metabolism associated to senescence phenotype. Nonetheless, the functional contribution of metabolic homeostasis in regulating senescence is barely understood. In this work, we describe how the mevalonate pathway, an anabolic pathway leading to the endogenous biosynthesis of poly-isoprenoids, such as cholesterol, acts as a positive regulator of cellular senescence in normal human cells. Mechanistically, this mevalonate pathway-induced senescence is partly mediated by the downstream cholesterol biosynthetic pathway. This pathway promotes the transcriptional activity of ERRα that could lead to dysfunctional mitochondria, ROS production, DNA damage and a p53-dependent senescence. Supporting the relevance of these observations, increase of senescence in liver due to a high-fat diet regimen is abrogated in ERRα knockout mouse. Overall, this work unravels the role of cholesterol biosynthesis or level in the induction of an ERRα-dependent mitochondrial program leading to cellular senescence and related pathological alterations.

Abstract
Immune checkpoints (ICs) are molecules implicated in the fine-tuning of immune response via co-inhibitory or co-stimulatory signals, and serve to secure minimized host damage. Targeting ICs with various therapeutic modalities, including checkpoint inhibitors/monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), and CAR-T cells has produced remarkable results, especially in immunogenic tumors, setting a paradigm shift in cancer therapeutics through the incorporation of these IC-targeted treatments. However, the large proportion of subjects who experience primary or secondary resistance to available IC-targeted options necessitates further advancements that render immunotherapy beneficial for a larger patient pool with longer duration of response. B7-H3 (B7 Homolog 3 Protein, CD276) is a member of the B7 family of IC proteins that exerts pleiotropic immunomodulatory effects both in physiologic and pathologic contexts. Mounting evidence has demonstrated an aberrant expression of B7-H3 in various solid malignancies, including tumors less sensitive to current immunotherapeutic options, and has associated its expression with advanced disease, worse patient survival and impaired response to IC-based regimens. Anti-B7-H3 agents, including novel mAbs, bispecific antibodies, ADCs, CAR-T cells, and radioimmunotherapy agents, have exhibited encouraging antitumor activity in preclinical models and have recently entered clinical testing for several cancer types. In the present review, we concisely present the functional implications of B7-H3 and discuss the latest evidence regarding its prognostic significance and therapeutic potential in solid malignancies, with emphasis on anti-B7-H3 modalities that are currently evaluated in clinical trial settings. Better understanding of B7-H3 intricate interactions in the tumor microenvironment will expand the oncological utility of anti-B7-H3 agents and further shape their role in cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
Membranous nephropathy (MN) occurs predominantly in middle-aged and elderly individuals and ranks among the most prevalent etiologies of elderly nephrotic syndrome. As an autoimmune glomerular disorder characterized by glomerular basement membrane thickening and immune complex deposition, conventional MN animal models, including the Heymann nephritis rat model and the c-BSA mouse model, have laid a foundation for MN pathogenesis research. However, differences in target antigens between rodents and humans have impeded this work. In recent years, researchers have created antigen-specific MN animal models, primarily centered on PLA2R1 and THSD7A, employing diverse techniques that provide innovative in vivo research platforms for MN. Furthermore, significant advancements have been made in the development of in vitro podocyte models relevant to MN. This review compiles recent antigen-specific MN animal models and podocyte models, elucidates their immune responses and pathological characteristics, and offers insights into the future of MN experimental model development. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive resource for research into the pathogenesis of MN and the development of targeted therapies for older patients with MN to prolong lifespan and improve quality of life.

Novel biomarkers and pathophysiology of membranous nephropathy: PLA2R and beyond. Clin Kidney J 2024; 17:sfad228. [PMID: 38213493 PMCID: PMC10783244 DOI: 10.1093/ckj/sfad228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Research on membranous nephropathy truly exploded in the last 15 years. This happened because of the application of new techniques (laser capture microdissection, mass spectrometry, protein G immunoprecipitation, arrays) to the study of its pathogenesis. After the discovery of PLA2R as the major target antigen, many other antigens were identified and others are probably ongoing. Clinical and pathophysiology rebounds of new discoveries are relevant in terms of diagnosis and prognosis and it is time to make a first assessment of the innovative issues. In terms of classification, target antigens can be divided into: 'membrane antigens' and 'second wave' antigens. The first group consists of antigens constitutionally expressed on the podocyte membrane (as PLA2R) that may become a target of an autoimmune process because of perturbation of immune-tolerance. 'Second wave' antigens are antigens neo-expressed by the podocyte or by infiltrating cells after a stressing event: this allows the immune system to produce antibodies against them that intensify and maintain glomerular damage. With this abundance of target antigens it is not possible, at the moment, to test all antibodies at the bedside. In the absence of this possibility, the role of histological evaluation is still irreplaceable.

Abstract
Background Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a chronic renal disease which could eventually develop into renal failure. Though albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are helpful for the diagnosis of DKD, the lack of specific biomarkers reduces the efficiency of therapeutic interventions. Methods Based on bulk-seq of 56 urine samples collected at different time points (including 11 acquired from DKD patients and 11 from healthy controls), in corporation of scRNA-seq data of urine samples and snRNA-seq data of renal punctures from DKD patients (retrieved from NCBI GEO Omnibus), urine-kidney specific genes were identified by Multiple Biological Information methods. Results Forty urine-kidney specific genes/differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified to be highly related to kidney injury and proteinuria for the DKD patients. Most of these genes participate in regulating glucagon and apoptosis, among which, urinary PART1 (mainly derived from distal tubular cells) and PLA2R1 (podocyte cell surface marker) could be used together for the early diagnosis of DKD. Moreover, urinary PART1 was significantly associated with multiple clinical indicators, and remained stable over time in urine. Conclusion Urinary PART1 and PLA2R1 could be shed lights on the discovery and development of non-invasive diagnostic method for DKD, especially in early stages.

Abstract
Much akin to the explosion in number of known target antigens in membranous nephropathy, there has been a rapid expansion in the availability of animal models involving the first 2 antigens discovered in adult disease, phospholipase A2 receptor and thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A. In this issue, Tomas et al. describe a novel mouse model of phospholipase A2 receptor-associated membranous nephropathy that shows great promise for investigating molecular mechanisms of disease and as an experimental system for testing existing and emerging therapies.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is induced by many stresses including telomere shortening, DNA damage, oxidative, or metabolic stresses. Senescent cells are stably cell cycle arrested and they secrete many factors including cytokines and chemokines. Accumulation of senescent cells promotes many age-related alterations and diseases. In this study, we investigated the role of the pro-senescent phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) in regulating some age-related alterations in old mice and in mice subjected to a Western diet, whereas aged wild-type mice displayed a decreased ability to regulate their glycemia during glucose and insulin tolerance tests, aged Pla2r1 knockout (KO) mice efficiently regulated their glycemia and displayed fewer signs of aging. Loss of Pla2r1 was also found protective against the deleterious effects of a Western diet. Moreover, these Pla2r1 KO mice were partially protected from diet-induced senescent cell accumulation, steatosis, and fibrosis. Together these results support that Pla2r1 drives several age-related alterations, especially in the liver, arising during aging or through a Western diet.

Abstract
The phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) is the major target antigen in patients with membranous nephropathy (MN), an antibody-mediated autoimmune glomerular disease. Investigation of MN pathogenesis has been hampered by the lack of reliable animal models. Here, we overcome this issue by generating a transgenic mouse line expressing a chimeric PLA2R1 (chPLA2R1) consisting of three human PLA2R1 domains (cysteine-rich, fibronectin type-II and CTLD1) and seven murine PLA2R1 domains (CTLD2-8) specifically in podocytes. Mice expressing the chPLA2R1 were healthy at birth and showed no major glomerular alterations when compared to mice with a wild-type PLA2R1 status. Upon active immunization with human PLA2R1 (hPLA2R1), chPLA2R1-positive mice developed anti-hPLA2R1 antibodies, a nephrotic syndrome, and all major histological features of MN, including granular deposition of mouse IgG and complement components in immunofluorescence and subepithelial electron-dense deposits and podocyte foot process effacement in electron microscopy. In order to investigate the role of the complement system in this model, we further crossed chPLA2R1-positive mice with mice lacking the central complement component C3 (C3-/- mice). Upon immunization with hPLA2R1, chPLA2R1-positive C3-/- mice had substantially less severe albuminuria and nephrotic syndrome when compared to chPLA2R1-positive mice with a wild-type C3 status. In conclusion, we introduce a novel active immunization model of PLA2R1-associated MN and demonstrate a pathogenic role of the complement system in this model.

Abstract
PLA2R1 is a novel gene that is aberrantly expressed in a variety of malignancies. However, the role and mechanism of PLA2R1 in thyroid cancer has not been elucidated. We aimed to uncover the underlying mechanism of PLA2R1 in thyroid cancer. We collected 115 clinical specimens, including 54 tumor tissues and 61 para-cancerous tissues, who underwent surgical treatment at Shanghai Tenth Hospital. Immunohistochemical staining was used to evaluate PLA2R1 expression in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) tissues. The thyroid cancer cell lines 8505c and FTC133 transfected with PLA2R1 overexpression or knockdown plasmids were used for CCK8 assays and a wound healing assay. Next, we conducted coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) experiments and western blotting to explore the underlying mechanism of PLA2R1 in regulating the growth of thyroid cancer. We discovered that the expression of PLA2R1 was lower in the tumor tissues than in para-cancerous tissues (χ2 = 37.0, p < 0.01). The overexpression of PLA2R1 significantly suppressed thyroid cancer cell proliferation and migration, and both of these effects were partially attenuated by the knockdown of PLA2R1. Furthermore, the in vivo growth of DTC could be alleviated by the knockdown of PLA2R1. The mechanistic study revealed that PLA2R1 competed with FN1 for binding to ITGB1, inhibiting the FAK axis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). We speculate that PLA2R1 might be a promising marker and a novel therapeutic target for thyroid cancer.

Abstract
The major form of membranous nephropathy is characterized by autoantibodies to phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1). The study by Tomas et al. describes the first animal model where human PLA2R1 is ectopically expressed in mouse podocytes. Intriguingly, the transgenic mice spontaneously develop anti-human PLA2R1 antibodies and membranous nephropathy-like features, including immune deposits and nephrotic syndrome. The model raises questions about the spontaneous production of anti-human PLA2R1 antibodies and the additional steps to establish a bona fide animal model of membranous nephropathy.

Abstract
Longevity is a defining, heritable trait that varies dramatically between species. To resolve the genetic regulation of this trait, we have mined genomic variation in rockfishes, which range in longevity from 11 to over 205 years. Multiple shifts in rockfish longevity have occurred independently and in a short evolutionary time frame, thus empowering convergence analyses. Our analyses reveal a common network of genes under convergent evolution, encompassing established aging regulators such as insulin signaling, yet also identify flavonoid (aryl-hydrocarbon) metabolism as a pathway modulating longevity. The selective pressures on these pathways indicate the ancestral state of rockfishes was long lived and that the changes in short-lived lineages are adaptive. These pathways were also used to explore genome-wide association studies of human longevity, identifying the aryl-hydrocarbon metabolism pathway to be significantly associated with human survival to the 99th percentile. This evolutionary intersection defines and cross-validates a previously unappreciated genetic architecture that associates with the evolution of longevity across vertebrates.

Abstract
Immunotherapy for cancer is a rapidly developing treatment that modifies the immune system and enhances the antitumor immune response. B7-H3 (CD276), a member of the B7 family that plays an immunoregulatory role in the T cell response, has been highlighted as a novel potential target for cancer immunotherapy. B7-H3 has been shown to play an inhibitory role in T cell activation and proliferation, participate in tumor immune evasion and influence both the immune response and tumor behavior through different signaling pathways. B7-H3 expression has been found to be aberrantly upregulated in many different cancer types, and an association between B7-H3 expression and poor prognosis has been established. Immunotherapy targeting B7-H3 through different approaches has been developing rapidly, and many ongoing clinical trials are exploring the safety and efficacy profiles of these therapies in cancer. In this review, we summarize the emerging research on the function and underlying pathways of B7-H3, the expression and roles of B7-H3 in different cancer types, and the advances in B7-H3-targeted therapy. Considering different tumor microenvironment characteristics and results from preclinical models to clinical practice, the research indicates that B7-H3 is a promising target for future immunotherapy, which might eventually contribute to an improvement in cancer immunotherapy that will benefit patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Membranous nephropathy (MN) is an autoimmune nephropathy. The incidence of MN is increasing gradually in recent years. Previous studies focused on antibody production, complement activation and podocyte injury in MN. However, the etiology and underlying mechanism of MN remain to be further studied. METHODS GSE104948 and GSE108109 of glomerular expression profile were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, GSE47184, GSE99325, GSE104954, GSE108112, GSE133288 of renal tubule expression profile, and GSE73953 of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) expression profile. After data integration by Networkanalyst, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between MN and healthy samples were obtained. DEGs were enriched in gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG), and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks of these genes were constructed through Metascape, etc. We further understood the function of hub genes through gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). The diagnostic value of DEGs in MN was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. RESULTS A total of 3 genes (TP53, HDAC5, and SLC2A3) were screened out. Among them, the up-regulated TP53 expression may be closely related to MN renal pathological changes. However, the expression of MN podocyte target antigen was not significantly different from that of healthy controls. In addition, the changes of Wnt signaling pathway in PBMCs and the effects of SLC2A3 on the differentiation of M2 monocyte need further study. CONCLUSION It is difficult to unify a specific mechanism for the changes of glomerulus, renal tubules and PBMCs in MN patients. This may be related to the pathogenesis, pathology and immune characteristics of MN. MN podocyte target antigen may not be the root cause of the disease, but a stage result in the pathogenesis process.

Abstract
Idiopathic or primary membranous nephropathy (IMN) is one of the most frequent causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults and the elderly. It is characterized by a thickening of the wall of the glomerular capillaries due to the presence of immune complex deposits. 85% of membranous nephropathy cases are classified as primary or idiopathic (IMN). The rest are of secondary origin (SMN), caused by autoimmune conditions or malignant tumors as lung cancer, colon and melanomas. It is an organ-specific autoimmune disease in which the complement system plays an important role with the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC; C5b-9), which produces an alteration of the podocyte structure. The antigen responsible for 70-80% of IMN is a podocyte protein called M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R). More recently, another podocyte antigen has been identified, the "Thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A" (THSD7A), which is responsible for 10% of the cases of negative IMN for anti- PLA2R.

Abstract
Background: Both membranous nephropathy (MN) and lupus nephritis (LN) are autoimmune kidney disease. In recent years, with the deepening of research, some similarities have been found in the pathogenesis of these two diseases. However, the mechanism of their interrelationship is not clear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in molecular mechanisms and key biomarkers between MN and LN. Method: The expression profiles of GSE99325, GSE99339, GSE104948 and GSE104954 were downloaded from GEO database, and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of MN and LN samples were obtained. We used Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) for enrichment analysis of DEGs. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of DEGs was constructed using Metascape. We filtered DEGs with NetworkAnalyst. Finally, we used receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to identify the most significant DEGs for MN and LN. Result: Compared with LN in the glomerulus, 14 DEGs were up-regulated and 77 DEGs were down-regulated in MN. Compared with LN in renal tubules, 21 DEGs were down-regulated, but no up-regulated genes were found in MN. According to the result of GO and KEGG enrichment, PPI network and Networkanalyst, we screened out six genes (IFI6, MX1, XAF1, HERC6, IFI44L, IFI44). Interestingly, among PLA2R, THSD7A and NELL1, which are the target antigens of podocyte in MN, the expression level of NELL1 in MN glomerulus is significantly higher than that of LN, while there is no significant difference in the expression level of PLA2R and THSD7A. Conclusion: Our study provides new insights into the pathogenesis of MN and LN by analyzing the differences in gene expression levels between MN and LN kidney samples, and is expected to be used to prepare an animal model of MN that is more similar to human.

Abstract
Background Endogenous phospholipases A2 (PLA2) play a fundamental role in inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases, apoptosis and cellular senescence. Neurotoxins with PLA2 activity are found in snake venoms from the Elapidae and Viperidae families. The mechanism of action of these neurotoxins have been studied using hippocampal and cerebellar neuronal cultures showing [Ca2+]i increase, mitochondrial depolarization and cell death. Astrocytes are rarely used as a model, despite being modulators at the synapses and responsible for homeostasis and defense in the central nervous system. Preserving the cell division ability, they can be utilized to study the cell proliferation process. In the present work cultured astrocytes and glioblastoma cells were employed to characterize the action of β-micrustoxin (previously named Mlx-9), a PLA2 isolated from Micrurus lemniscatus snake venom. The β-micrustoxin structure was determined and the cell proliferation, cell cycle phases and the regulatory proteins p53, p21 and p27 were investigated. Methods β-micrustoxin was characterized biochemically by a proteomic approach. Astrocytes were obtained by dissociation of pineal glands from Wistar rats; glioblastoma tumor cells were purchased from ATCC and Sigma and cultured in DMEM medium. Cell viability was evaluated by MTT assay; cell proliferation and cell cycle phases were analyzed by flow cytometry; p53, p21 and p27 proteins were studied by western blotting and immunocytochemistry. Results Proteomic analysis revealed fragments on β-micrustoxin that aligned with a PLA2 from Micrurus lemniscatus lemniscatus previously identified as transcript ID DN112835_C3_g9_i1/m.9019. β-micrustoxin impaired the viability of astrocytes and glioblastoma tumor cells. There was a reduction in cell proliferation, an increase in G2/M phase and activation of p53, p21 and p27 proteins in astrocytes. Conclusion These findings indicate that β-micrustoxin from Micrurus lemniscatus venom could inhibit cell proliferation through p53, p21 and p27 activation thus imposing cell cycle arrest at the checkpoint G2/M.

Abstract
Stress is an important risk factor for suicidal ideation, but the mechanisms that link stress, suicidal ideation and neurobiology remain unclear. Epigenetic mechanisms are involved in both vulnerability to suicidal behavior and stress. This is a pilot study of 60 patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (36 men and 24 women), with an average age of 43.75 ± 12.24 years. We analyzed the effects of (1) perceived stress and (2) the mediation of genome-wide methylation (~450 000 CpG sites) on suicidal ideation severity. The top CpG site mediating the effect of stress on suicidal ideation was the cg10782349 located in the ZNF701 gene on chromosome 19, facilitating the effect through DNA hypermethylation. These preliminary results indicate that DNA methylation in peripheral tissues can clarify the complex relationship between stress and suicidal ideation in schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cell senescence is a key process in age-associated dysfunction and diseases, notably chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We previously identified phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) as a positive regulator of cell senescence acting via Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signalling. Its role in pathology, however, remains unknown. Here, we assessed PLA2R1-induced senescence in COPD and lung emphysema pathogenesis. METHODS We assessed cell senescence in lungs and cultured lung cells from patients with COPD and controls subjected to PLA2R1 knockdown, PLA2R1 gene transduction and treatment with the JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib. To assess whether PLA2R1 upregulation caused lung lesions, we developed transgenic mice overexpressing PLA2R1 (PLA2R1-TG) and intratracheally injected wild-type mice with a lentiviral vector carrying the Pla2r1 gene (LV-PLA2R1 mice). RESULTS We found that PLA2R1 was overexpressed in various cell types exhibiting senescence characteristics in COPD lungs. PLA2R1 knockdown extended the population doubling capacity of these cells and inhibited their pro-inflammatory senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). PLA2R1-mediated cell senescence in COPD was largely reversed by treatment with the potent JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib. Five-month-old PLA2R1-TG mice exhibited lung cell senescence, and developed lung emphysema and lung fibrosis together with pulmonary hypertension. Treatment with ruxolitinib induced reversal of lung emphysema and fibrosis. LV-PLA2R1-treated mice developed lung emphysema within 4 weeks and this was markedly attenuated by concomitant ruxolitinib treatment. CONCLUSIONS Our data support a major role for PLA2R1 activation in driving lung cell senescence and lung alterations in COPD. Targeting JAK1/2 may represent a promising therapeutic approach for COPD.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are two complex incurable neurodegenerative disorders the common pathogenesis of which is actively discussed. There are overlapping risk factors and molecular mechanisms of the two diseases; at the same time, there are arguments in favor of the notion that susceptibility to each of these diseases is associated with a distinct genetic background. Here we identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are specific for senescence-accelerated OXYS rats, which simulate key characteristics of both sporadic AD and AMD. Transcriptomes of the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, and retina (data of RNA-Seq) were analyzed. We detected SNPs in genes Rims2, AABR07072639.2, Lemd2, and AABR07045405.1, which thus can express significantly truncated proteins lacking functionally important domains. Additionally, 33 mutations in genes-which are related to various metabolic and signaling pathways-cause nonsynonymous amino acid substitutions presumably leading to disturbances in protein structure or functions. Some of the genes carrying these SNPs are associated with aging, neurodegenerative, and mental diseases. Thus, we revealed the SNPs can lead to abnormalities in protein structure or functions and affect the development of the senescence-accelerated phenotype of OXYS rats. Our data are consistent with the latest results of genome-wide association studies that highlight the importance of multiple pathways for the pathogenesis of AD and AMD. Identified SNPs can serve as promising research objects for further studies on the molecular mechanisms underlying this particular rat model as well as for the prediction of potential biomarkers of AD and AMD.

Abstract
The identification of the phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R) and thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing protein 7A (THSD7A) as podocyte antigens in adult patients with membranous nephropathy (MN) has strongly impacted both experimental and clinical research on this disease. Evidence has been furnished that podocyte-directed autoantibodies can cause MN, and novel PLA2R- and THSD7A-specific animal models have been developed. Today, measurement of serum autoantibody levels and staining of kidney biopsies for the target antigens guides MN diagnosis and treatment worldwide. Additionally, anti-PLA2R antibodies have been proven to be valuable prognostic biomarkers in MN. Despite these impressive advances, a variety of questions regarding the disease pathomechanisms, clinical use of antibody measurement, and future treatments remain unanswered. In this review, we will outline recent advances made in the field of MN and discuss open questions and perspectives with a focus on novel antigen identification, mechanisms of podocyte injury, clinical use of antibody measurement to guide diagnosis and treatment, and the potential of innovative, pathogenesis-based treatment strategies.

Abstract
Both senescence and autophagy have been strongly linked to aging and also cancer development. Numerous molecular, cellular, and physiological changes are known to correlate with an increasing age, yet our understanding of what underlies these changes or how they combine to give rise to the various pathologies associated with aging is still unclear. Levels of autophagy activity are known to decrease with advancing age, in a variety of organisms including mammals. Whereas senescent cells are known to accumulate in our bodies with age. Herein we review evidence from some elegant genetic mouse models linking senescence and also autophagy to aging and cancer. It is especially interesting to note the convergence in the pathological phenotypes of these two processes, senescence and autophagy, in these mouse models.

Abstract
Although aging is a major risk factor for most types of cancers, it is barely studied in this context. The transmembrane protein PLA2R1 (phospholipase A2 receptor) promotes cellular senescence, which can inhibit oncogene-induced tumor initiation. Functions and mechanisms of action of PLA2R1 during aging are largely unknown. In this study, we observed that old Pla2r1 knockout mice were more prone to spontaneously develop a wide spectrum of tumors compared to control littermates. Consistently, these knockout mice displayed increased Parp1, a master regulator of DNA damage repair, and decreased DNA damage, correlating with large human dataset analysis. Forced PLA2R1 expression in normal human cells decreased PARP1 expression, induced DNA damage and subsequent senescence, while the constitutive expression of PARP1 rescued cells from these PLA2R1-induced effects. Mechanistically, PARP1 expression is repressed by a ROS (reactive oxygen species)-Rb-dependent mechanism upon PLA2R1 expression. In conclusion, our results suggest that PLA2R1 suppresses aging-induced tumors by repressing PARP1, via a ROS-Rb signaling axis, and inducing DNA damage and its tumor suppressive responses.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is induced by stresses and results in a stable proliferation arrest accompanied by a pro-inflammatory secretome. Senescent cells accumulate during aging, promoting various age-related pathologies and limiting lifespan. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor, type 2 (ITPR2) calcium-release channel and calcium fluxes from the ER to the mitochondria are drivers of senescence in human cells. Here we show that Itpr2 knockout (KO) mice display improved aging such as increased lifespan, a better response to metabolic stress, less immunosenescence, as well as less liver steatosis and fibrosis. Cellular senescence, which is known to promote these alterations, is decreased in Itpr2 KO mice and Itpr2 KO embryo-derived cells. Interestingly, ablation of ITPR2 in vivo and in vitro decreases the number of contacts between the mitochondria and the ER and their forced contacts induce premature senescence. These findings shed light on the role of contacts and facilitated exchanges between the ER and the mitochondria through ITPR2 in regulating senescence and aging.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a state of stable and irreversible cell cycle arrest with active metabolism, that normal cells undergo after a finite number of divisions (Hayflick limit). Senescence can be triggered by intrinsic and/or extrinsic stimuli including telomere shortening at the end of a cell's lifespan (telomere-initiated senescence) and in response to oxidative, genotoxic or oncogenic stresses (stress-induced premature senescence). Several effector mechanisms have been proposed to explain senescence programmes in diploid cells, including the induction of DNA damage responses, a senescence-associated secretory phenotype and epigenetic changes. Senescent cells display senescence-associated-β-galactosidase activity and undergo chromatin remodeling resulting in heterochromatinisation. Senescence is established by the pRb and p53 tumour suppressor networks. Senescence has been detected in in vitro cellular settings and in premalignant, but not malignant lesions in mice and humans expressing mutant oncogenes. Despite oncogene-induced senescence, which is believed to be a cancer initiating barrier and other tumour suppressive mechanisms, benign cancers may still develop into malignancies by bypassing senescence. Here, we summarise the functional genetic screens that have identified genes, uncovered pathways and characterised mechanisms involved in senescence evasion. These include cell cycle regulators and tumour suppressor pathways, DNA damage response pathways, epigenetic regulators, SASP components and noncoding RNAs.

Abstract
Regulatory B cells (Breg) are widely regarded as immunomodulatory cells which play an immunosuppressive role. Breg inhibits pathological autoimmune response by secreting interleukin-10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), and adenosine and through other ways to prevent T cells and other immune cells from expanding. Recent studies have shown that different inflammatory environments induce different types of Breg cells, and these different Breg cells have different functions. For example, Br1 cells can secrete IgG4 to block autoantigens. Idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) is an autoimmune disease in which the humoral immune response is dominant and the cellular immune response is impaired. However, only a handful of studies have been done on the role of Bregs in this regard. In this review, we provide a brief overview of the types and functions of Breg found in human body, as well as the abnormal pathological and immunological phenomena in IMN, and propose the hypothesis that Breg is activated in IMN patients and the proportion of Br1 can be increased. Our review aims at highlighting the correlation between Breg and IMN and proposes potential mechanisms, which can provide a new direction for the discovery of the pathogenesis of IMN, thus providing a new strategy for the prevention and early treatment of IMN.

Abstract
PURPOSE The meta-analysis aims to investigate the relationship between anti-phospholipase A2 receptor autoantibody (anti-PLA2R) and clinical characteristics and adverse outcomes of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). METHODS Related studies published before February 2020 were systematically retrieved from foreign and domestic databases, RevMan5.3 software was used for meta-analysis and subgroup analysis, and STATA 15.0 statistical software was used for its heterogeneity and testing publication bias. RESULTS Twenty studies were included, involving 2224 patients with IMN. Our results showed that a significant correlation existed between the expression of serum anti-PLA2R and age (MD = 2.91, 95% CI = 2.15-3.67, P < 0.00001), total serum cholesterol (MD = 35.52, 95% CI = 9.52-61.52, P = 0.007), urine protein by creatinine ratio (UPCR) (MD = 2.15, 95% CI = 1.86-2.44, P<0.00001), serum albumin (MD = -0.40, 95% CI = -0.56 to -0.23, P < 0.00001), eGFR (MD = -10.44, 95% CI = -12.19 to -8.68, P < 0.00001), unremission rate (RR = 1.76, 95% CI = 1.37-2.27, P < 0.0001). In addition, the high titer in seropositive group was closely correlated with serum albumin (MD = -0.40, 95% CI = -0.74 to -0.05, P = 0.03), eGFR (MD = -12.40, 95% CI = -16.29 to -8.52, P < 0.00001) and unremission rate (RR = 2.52, 95% CI = 1.79-3.55, P < 0.00001). No significant correlation was found between glomerular anti-PLA2R and clinical manifestations except for serum cholesterol (MD = 0.81, 95% CI = 0.21-1.41, P = 0.008). However, in terms of prognosis, glomerular anti-PLA2R showed a significant relevance to recurrence rate (RR = 2.25, 95% CI = 1.07-4.72, P = 0.03). CONCLUSION Compared with glomerular anti-PLA2R, serum anti-PLA2R may better reflect the activities of IMN disease, while the glomerular anti-PLA2R might be connected with the recurrence of the disease.

Abstract
Phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) expression and its role in the initiation and progression of breast cancer are an unresolved issue. PLA2R1 was found to endorse several tumor suppressive responses, including cellular senescence and apoptosis. Previous in vitro studies demonstrated that DNA hypermethylation was highly associated with the epigenetic silencing of PLA2R1 in breast cancer cell lines. Our objective was to study the level of PLA2R1 mRNA expression and the methylation of its promoter in different histological grades and molecular subtypes of breast cancer. We performed bioinformatics analyses on available human breast cancer expression datasets to assess the PLA2R1 mRNA expression. We used qRT-PCR to evaluate the PLA2R1 mRNA expression and its promoter’s methylation in breast cancer tissue in comparison to breast fibroadenomas. Our results describe, for the first time, the expression of PLA2R1 and the methylation of its promoter in human breast cancer tissues. A significant downregulation of PLA2R1, together with hypermethylation of the promoter was detected in breast cancers of different histological grades and molecular subtypes when compared to benign breast tissues. PLA2R1 promoter hypermethylation was associated with aggressive subtypes of breast cancer. In conclusion, PLA2R1 promoter hypermethylation is a potentially useful diagnostic and prognostic biomarker and could serve as a possible therapeutic target in breast cancer.

Abstract
Anti-PLA2R antibody is only expressed in podocytes from patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). The detection of anti-PLA2R antibody in serum is therefore able to obtain essential information for rapid diagnosis and evaluation of the disease activity of IMN. In the present study, a polydopamine nanosphere-based fluorescent sensor was constructed for direct detection of anti-PLA2R antibodies in human serum. In this sensing system, the double-stranded DNA was phosphorylated under the action of anti-PLA2R antibody and the single-stranded DNA was cut by exonuclease. The single-stranded DNA was then adsorbed on polydopamine microspheres. The fluorescent groups labeled on the DNA were quenched, and the concentration of anti-PLA2R antibody was detected quantitatively by measuring the fluorescence signal changes before and after the reaction. The experimental results show that the method has a good linear detection range between 0.05 and 10 μg/mL for anti-PLA2R antibody and the detection limit is 0.02 μg/mL. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common form of paediatric cancer and epigenetic aberrations are determinants of leukaemogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the methylation degree of a distinct phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) promoter region in paediatric ALL patients and to evaluate its relevance as new biomarker for monitoring treatment response and burden of residual disease. The impact of PLA2R1 re-expression on proliferative parameters was assessed in vitro in Jurkat cells with PLA2R1 naturally silenced by DNA methylation. Genomic DNA was isolated from bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) of 44 paediatric ALL patients. PLA2R1 methylation was analysed using digital PCR and compared to 20 healthy controls. Transfected Jurkat cells were investigated using cell growth curve analysis and flow cytometry. PLA2R1 was found hypermethylated in BM and PB from pre-B and common ALL patients, and in patients with the disease relapse. PLA2R1 methylation decreased along with leukaemic blast cell reduction during ALL induction treatment. In vitro analysis revealed an anti-proliferative phenotype associated with PLA2R1 re-expression, suggesting a tumour-suppressive function of PLA2R1. Collected data indicates that PLA2R1 promoter methylation quantitation can be used as biomarker for ALL induction treatment control, risk stratification, and early detection of ALL relapse.

Generation of a conditional transgenic mouse model expressing human Phospholipase A2 Receptor 1. Sci Rep 2020; 10:8190.

Abstract
The Phospholipase A2 Receptor 1 (PLA2R1) was first identified for its ability to bind some secreted PLA2s (sPLA2s). It belongs to the C-type lectin superfamily and it binds different types of proteins. It is likely a multifunctional protein that plays a role i) in inflammation and inflammatory diseases, ii) in cellular senescence, a mechanism participating in aging and age-related diseases including cancer, and iii) in membranous nephropathy (MN), a rare autoimmune kidney disease where PLA2R1 is the major autoantigen. To help study the role of PLA2R1 in these pathophysiological conditions, we have generated a versatile NeoR-hPLA2R1 conditional transgenic mice which will allow the specific expression of human PLA2R1 (hPLA2R1) in relevant organs and cells following Cre recombinase-driven excision of the NeoR-stop cassette flanked by LoxP sites. Proof-of-concept breeding of NeoR-hPLA2R1 mice with the ubiquitous adenoviral EIIa promoter-driven Cre mouse line resulted in the expected excision of the NeoR-stop cassette and the expression of hPLA2R1 in all tested tissues. These Tg-hPLA2R1 animals breed normally, with no reproduction or apparent growth defect. These models, especially the NeoR-hPLA2R1 conditional transgenic mouse line, will facilitate the future investigation of PLA2R1 functions in relevant pathophysiological contexts, including inflammatory diseases, age-related diseases and MN.

Abstract
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is caused by an LMNA mutation that results in the production of the abnormal progerin protein. Children with HGPS display phenotypes of premature aging and have an average lifespan of 13 years. We found earlier that the targeting of the transmembrane protein PLA2R1 overcomes senescence and improves phenotypes in a mouse model of progeria. PLA2R1 is regulating the JAK/STAT signaling, but we do not yet know whether targeting this pathway directly would influence cellular and in vivo progeria phenotypes. Here, we show that JAK1/2 inhibition with ruxolitinib rescues progerin‐induced cell cycle arrest, cellular senescence, and misshapen nuclei in human normal fibroblasts expressing progerin. Moreover, ruxolitinib administration reduces several premature aging phenotypes: bone fractures, bone mineral content, grip strength, and a trend to increase survival in a mouse model of progeria. Thus, we propose that ruxolitinib, an FDA‐approved drug, should be further evaluated as a drug candidate in HGPS therapy.

Abstract
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), commonly called progeria, is an extremely rare disorder that affects only one child per four million births. It is characterized by accelerated aging in affected individuals leading to premature death at an average age of 14.5 years due to cardiovascular complications. The main cause of HGPS is a sporadic autosomal dominant point mutation in LMNA gene resulting in differently spliced lamin A protein known as progerin. Accumulation of progerin under nuclear lamina and activation of its downstream effectors cause perturbation in cellular morphology and physiology which leads to a systemic disorder that mainly impairs the cardiovascular system, bones, skin, and overall growth. Till now, no cure has been found for this catastrophic disorder; however, several therapeutic strategies are under development. The current review focuses on the overall progress in the field of therapeutic approaches for the management/cure of HGPS. We have also discussed the new disease models that have been developed for the study of this rare disorder. Moreover, we have highlighted the therapeutic application of extracellular vesicles derived from stem cells against aging and aging-related disorders and, therefore, suggest the same for the treatment of HGPS.

Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis is an oral pathogen with the ability to induce oral dysbiosis and periodontal disease. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which P. gingivalis could abrogate the host-microbe symbiotic relationship leading to oral dysbiosis remain unclear. We have recently demonstrated that P. gingivalis specifically increased the antimicrobial properties of oral epithelial cells, through a strong induction of the expression of PLA2-IIA in a mechanism that involves activation of the Notch-1 receptor. Moreover, gingival expression of PLA2-IIA was significantly increased during initiation and progression of periodontal disease in non-human primates and interestingly, those PLA2-IIA expression changes were concurrent with oral dysbiosis. In this chapter, we present an innovative hypothesis of a potential mechanism involved in P. gingivalis-induced oral dysbiosis and inflammation based on our previous observations and a robust body of literature that supports the antimicrobial and proinflammatory properties of PLA2-IIA as well as its role in other chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Membranous nephropathy is a noninflammatory autoimmune disease of the kidney glomerulus, characterized by the formation of immune deposits, complement-mediated proteinuria, and risk of renal failure. Considerable advances in understanding the molecular pathogenesis have occurred with the identification of several antigens [neutral endopeptidase, phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R), thrombospondin domain-containing 7A (THSD7A)] in cases arising from the neonatal period to adulthood and the characterization of antibody-binding domains (that is, epitopes). Immunization against PLA2R occurs in 70% to 80% of adult cases. The development of highly specific and sensitive assays of circulating antibodies has induced a paradigm shift in diagnosis and treatment monitoring. In addition, several interacting loci in HLA-DQ, HLA-DR, and PLA2R1, as well as classical human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-D alleles have been identified as being risk factors, depending on a patient's ethnicity. Additionally, mechanisms of antibody pathogenicity and pathways of complement activation are now better understood. Further research is mandatory for designing new therapeutic strategies, including the identifying triggering events, the molecular bases of remission and progression, and the T cell epitopes involved.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is a major contributor to chronic lung diseases. Antioxidants such as N-acetylcysteine (NAC) are broadly viewed as protective molecules that prevent the mutagenic effects of reactive oxygen species. Antioxidants may, however, increase the risk of some forms of cancer and accelerate lung cancer progression in murine models. Here, we investigated chronic NAC treatment in aging mice displaying lung oxidative stress and cell senescence due to inactivation of the transcription factor JunD, which is downregulated in diseased human lungs. NAC treatment decreased lung oxidative damage and cell senescence and protected from lung emphysema but concomitantly induced the development of lung adenocarcinoma in 50% of JunD-deficient mice and 10% of aged control mice. This finding constitutes the first evidence to our knowledge of a carcinogenic effect of antioxidant therapy in the lungs of aged mice with chronic lung oxidative stress and warrants the utmost caution when considering the therapeutic use of antioxidants.

Abstract
Lipid signaling network was proposed as a potential target for cancer prevention and treatment. Several recent studies revealed that phospholipid metabolising enzyme, phospholipase A2 (PLA2), is a critical regulator of cancer accelerating pathologies and apoptosis in several types of cancers. In addition to functioning as an enzyme, PLA2 can activate a phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R1) in plasma membrane. While the list of PLA2 targets extends to glucose homeostasis, intracellular energy balance, adipocyte development, and hepatic lipogenesis, the PLA2R1 downstream effectors are few and scarcely investigated. Among the most addressed PLA2R1 effects are regulation of pro-inflammatory signaling, autoimmunity, apoptosis, and senescence. Localized in glomeruli podocytes, the receptor can be identified by circulating anti-PLA2R1 autoantibodies leading to development of membranous nephropathy, a strong autoimmune inflammatory cascade. PLA2R1 was shown to induce activation of Janus-kinase 2 (JAK2) and estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα)-controlled mitochondrial proteins, as well as increasing the accumulation of reactive oxygen species, thus leading to apoptosis and senescence. These findings indicate the potential role of PLA2R1 as tumor suppressor. Epigenetic investigations addressed the role of DNA methylation, histone modifications, and specific microRNAs in the regulation of PLA2R1 expression. However, involvement of PLA2R1 in suppression of malignant growth and metastasis remains controversial. In this review, we summarize the recent findings that highlight the role of PLA2R1 in the regulation of carcinogenesis-related intracellular signaling.

Abstract
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a lethal premature aging that recapitulates many normal aging characteristics. This disorder is caused by mutation in the LMNA gene leading to the production of progerin which induces misshapen nuclei, cellular senescence, and aging. We previously showed that the phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R1) promotes senescence induced by replicative, oxidative, and oncogenic stress but its role during progerin‐induced senescence and in progeria is currently unknown. Here, we show that knockdown of PLA2R1 prevented senescence induced by progerin expression in human fibroblasts and markedly delayed senescence of HGPS patient‐derived fibroblasts. Whole‐body knockout of Pla2r1 in a mouse model of progeria decreased some premature aging phenotypes, such as rib fracture and decreased bone content, together with decreased senescence marker. Progerin‐expressing human fibroblasts exhibited a high frequency of misshapen nuclei and increased farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDPS) expression compared to controls; knockdown of PLA2R1 reduced the frequency of misshapen nuclei and normalized FDPS expression. Pamidronate, a FDPS inhibitor, also reduced senescence and misshapen nuclei. Downstream of PLA2R1, we found that p53 mediated the progerin‐induced increase in FDPS expression and in misshapen nuclei. These results suggest that PLA2R1 mediates key premature aging phenotypes through a p53/FDPS pathway and might be a new therapeutic target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The analysis of aberrant DNA methylations is used for the diagnosis of cancer as significant changes in the gene methylation pattern are often detected during early carcinogenesis. In this study, we evaluated the performance of a two-step method that combines pre-amplification with ddPCR technique. RESULTS By using ddPCR, the dependence of amplification efficiency for methylated and unmethylated DNA fragments on the relevant MgCl2 concentration and the annealing temperature was established in addition to the primer design. We found that the efficiency can be adjusted toward methylated sequences by using primers covering one to four CpG sites under appropriately selected MgCl2 concentration and annealing temperature. Applying a PCR bias between 85% and 95%, five copies of methylated tumor DNA fragments were detected against a background of 700,000 copies of unmethylated DNA fragments with a high signal-to-noise ratio. The analysis of serum samples from patients with prostate cancer showed a significantly improved performance of the new method in comparison with the MS-HRM technique, ddPCR alone, or ddPCR in combination with an unbiased pre-amplification using methylation-independent primers. CONCLUSIONS We define this method as an optimized bias-based pre-amplification-digital droplet PCR (OBBPA-ddPCR) technique. This novel method is recommended for the early detection of cancer-specific DNA methylation biomarkers in the form of a liquid biopsy.

Abstract
Physiological and pathophysiological functions of the phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) are still not completely understood. To elucidate PLA2R1’s function in prostate carcinoma, the receptor was ectopically overexpressed in LNCaP with silenced PLA2R1, and diminished in PC-3 cells with constitutively increased PLA2R1 expression relative to normal prostate epithelial cells. LNCaP cells were transfected to overexpress PLA2R1 (LNCaP-PLA2R1) and compared to control vector transfected cells (LNCaP-Ctrl). Alternatively, a CRISPR/Cas9-knockdown of PLA2R1 was achieved in PC-3 cells (PC-3 KD) and compared to the corresponding control-transfected cells (PC-3 Ctrl). The impact of PLA2R1 expression on proliferative and metastatic parameters was analysed in vitro. A pilot in vivo study addressed the effects of PLA2R1 in mice xenografted with transfected LNCaP and PC-3 cells. Cell viability/proliferation and motility were significantly increased in LNCaP-PLA2R1 and PC-3 Ctrl compared to LNCaP-Ctrl and PC-3 KD cells, respectively. However, levels of apoptosis, clonogenicity and cell invasion were reduced in LNCaP-PLA2R1 and PC-3 Ctrl cells. Gene expression analysis revealed an up-regulation of fibronectin 1 (FN1), TWIST homolog 1 (TWIST1), and cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) in LNCaP-PLA2R1. In LNCaP xenografts, PLA2R1-dependent regulation of clonogenicity appeared to outweigh the receptor’s pro-oncogenic properties, resulting in decreased tumour growth, supporting the tumour-suppressive role of PLA2R1. Alternatively, PC-3 Ctrl xenografts exhibited faster tumour growth compared to PC-3 KD cells, suggesting a pro-oncogenic effect of endogenous PLA2R1 expression. The differential growth-regulatory effects of PLA2R1 may be mediated by FN1, TWIST1, and CDK6 expression, although further investigation is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM DNA methylation plays an important role in the initiation and propagation of carcinogenesis; however, the role of heterogeneously methylated epialleles is currently not well studied, also due to the lack of sensitive, unbiased and high throughput methods. Here, a newly developed droplet digital PCR (ddPCR)-based method was evaluated regarding its ability to quantify such heterogeneously methylated epialleles with sufficient analytical sensitivity and specificity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Genomic DNA from blood leukocytes and bone marrow aspirate of an 8-year old male with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and from normal and malignant prostate cell lines were analysed using ddPCR. RESULTS By using these DNA samples, the specificity of an applied set of fluorescence-labeled probes was demonstrated as a proof of concept. CONCLUSION All individual heterogeneously-methylated epialleles were quantifiable by a set of fluorescence-labeled probes with complementary sequences to epialleles in a closed-tube and high-throughput manner. The new method named epiallele-sensitive droplet digital PCR (EAST-ddPCR) may give new insights in the generation and regulation of epialleles and may help in finding new biomarkers for the diagnosis of benign und malignant diseases.

Abstract
Oncogenic signals lead to premature senescence in normal human cells causing a proliferation arrest and the elimination of these defective cells by immune cells. Oncogene‐induced senescence (OIS) prevents aberrant cell division and tumor initiation. In order to identify new regulators of OIS, we performed a loss‐of‐function genetic screen and identified that the loss of SCN9A allowed cells to escape from OIS. The expression of this sodium channel increased in senescent cells during OIS. This upregulation was mediated by NF‐κB transcription factors, which are well‐known regulators of senescence. Importantly, the induction of SCN9A by an oncogenic signal or by p53 activation led to plasma membrane depolarization, which in turn, was able to induce premature senescence. Computational and experimental analyses revealed that SCN9A and plasma membrane depolarization mediated the repression of mitotic genes through a calcium/Rb/E2F pathway to promote senescence. Taken together, our work delineates a new pathway, which involves the NF‐κB transcription factor, SCN9A expression, plasma membrane depolarization, increased calcium, the Rb/E2F pathway and mitotic gene repression in the regulation of senescence. This work thus provides new insight into the involvement of ion channels and plasma membrane potential in the control of senescence.

Transcriptional repression of DNA repair genes is a hallmark and a cause of cellular senescence. Cell Death Dis 2018; 9:259. [PMID: 29449545 PMCID: PMC5833687 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-018-0300-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2017] [Revised: 01/08/2018] [Accepted: 01/10/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Cellular senescence response is (i) activated by numerous stresses, (ii) is characterized by a stable proliferation arrest, and (iii) by a set of specific features. Timely regulated senescence is thought to be beneficial, whereas chronic senescence such as during normal or premature aging is deleterious as it favors most, if not all, age-related diseases. In this study, using in-house or publicly available microarray analyses of transcriptomes of senescent cells, as well as analyses of the level of expression of several DNA repair genes by RT-qPCR and immunoblot, we show that repression of DNA repair gene expression is associated with cellular senescence. This repression is mediated by the RB/E2F pathway and it may play a causal role in senescence induction, as single DNA repair gene repression by siRNA induced features of premature senescence. Importantly, activating RB independently of direct DNA damage also results in repression of DNA repair genes and in the subsequent induction of DNA damage and senescence. The dogma is that DNA damage observed during cellular senescence is directly provoked by DNA lesions following genotoxic attack (UV, IR, and ROS) or by induction of replicative stress upon oncogenic activation. Our in vitro results support a largely unsuspected contribution of the loss of DNA repair gene expression in the induction and the accumulation of the DNA damage observed in most, if not all, kinds of cellular senescence, and thus in the induction of cellular senescence. Further demonstration using in vivo models will help to generalize our findings.
