Wu Q, Yao Q, Hu T, Yu J, Jiang K, Wan Y, Tang Q. Dapagliflozin protects against chronic heart failure in mice by inhibiting macrophage-mediated inflammation, independent of SGLT2. Cell Rep Med 2023; 4:101334. [PMID: 38118414 PMCID: PMC10772464 DOI: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2023.101334] [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: 01/19/2023] [Revised: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/22/2023]
Abstract
The specific mechanism of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor in heart failure (HF) needs to be elucidated. In this study, we use SGLT2-global-knockout (KO) mice to assess the mechanism of SGLT2 inhibitor on HF. Dapagliflozin ameliorates both myocardial infarction (MI)- and transverse aortic constriction (TAC)-induced HF. Global SGLT2 deficiency does not exert protection against adverse remodeling in both MI- and TAC-induced HF models. Dapagliflozin blurs MI- and TAC-induced HF phenotypes in SGLT2-KO mice. Dapagliflozin causes major changes in cardiac fibrosis and inflammation. Based on single-cell RNA sequencing, dapagliflozin causes significant differences in the gene expression profile of macrophages and fibroblasts. Moreover, dapagliflozin directly inhibits macrophage inflammation, thereby suppressing cardiac fibroblasts activation. The cardio-protection of dapagliflozin is blurred in mice treated with a C-C chemokine receptor type 2 antagonist. Taken together, the protective effects of dapagliflozin against HF are independent of SGLT2, and macrophage inhibition is the main target of dapagliflozin against HF.

Abstract
Inflammation is a series of reactions caused by the body's resistance to external biological stimuli. Inflammation affects the occurrence and development of many diseases. Anti-inflammatory drugs have been used widely to treat inflammatory diseases, but long-term use can cause toxic side-effects and affect human functions. As immunomodulators with long-term conditioning effects and no drug residues, natural products are being investigated increasingly for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. In this review, we focus on the inflammatory process and cellular mechanisms in the development of diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, atherosclerosis, and coronavirus disease-2019. Also, we focus on three signaling pathways (Nuclear factor-kappa B, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription-3) to explain the anti-inflammatory effect of natural products. In addition, we also classified common natural products based on secondary metabolites and explained the association between current bidirectional prediction progress of natural product targets and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy (referred to as cardiac hypertrophy) is a maladaptive response of the heart to a variety of pathological stimuli, and cardiac hypertrophy is an independent risk factor for heart failure and sudden death. Currently, the treatments for cardiac hypertrophy are limited to improving symptoms and have little effect. Elucidation of the developmental process of cardiac hypertrophy at the molecular level and the identification of new targets for the treatment of cardiac hypertrophy are crucial. In this review, we summarize the research on multiple active substances related to the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and the signaling pathways involved and focus on the role of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling in the development of cardiac hypertrophy and the identification of potential targets for molecular intervention. We aim to identify important signaling molecules with clinical value and hope to help promote the precise treatment of cardiac hypertrophy and thus improve patient outcomes.

Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1243734. [PMID: 37900164 PMCID: PMC10611501 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1243734] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and aims: Preeclampsia (PE) is the leading cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Apoptosis of trophoblast cells induced by oxidative stress is a principal reason of placental injury in PE. 6-Gingerol, an antioxidant from ginger, plays an important role in many disease models, but its effect on obstetric diseases has not been elucidated. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of 6-gingerol against placental injury. Methods: In vitro hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model of HTR8/Svneo cells and preeclamptic mice model were established to simulate PE. The effects of 6-Gingerol on PE were evaluated by morphological detection, biochemical analysis, and Western blot. Results: We found that H/R treatment induced cell apoptosis, increased the production of reactive oxygen species, malondialdehyde and lactate dehydrogenase, and decreased superoxide dismutase in trophoblast. In addition, the polarization of mitochondrial membrane potential and the cellular calcium flux were also destroyed under H/R condition, which also activated BCL2-interacting protein 3 (BNIP3) and provoked excessive mitophagy. Importantly, 6-Gingerol reversed these corrosive effects. Furthermore, the placenta damage in PE-like mouse caused by the cell apoptosis, oxidative stress and mitophagy was mitigated by 6-Gingerol. Conclusion: These findings suggest that 6-Gingerol exerts a protective effect against placental injury in PE by reducing oxidative stress and inhibiting excessive mitophagy caused by mitochondrial dysfunction.

Leucine zipper protein 1 attenuates pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy through inhibiting Stat3 signaling. J Adv Res 2023:S2090-1232(23)00299-0.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiac hypertrophy is an important contributor of heart failure, and the mechanisms remain unclear. Leucine zipper protein 1 (LUZP1) is essential for the development and function of cardiovascular system; however, its role in cardiac hypertrophy is elusive. OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the molecular basis of LUZP1 in cardiac hypertrophy and to provide a rational therapeutic approach. METHODS Cardiac-specific Luzp1 knockout (cKO) and transgenic mice were established, and transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was used to induce pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy. The possible molecular basis of LUZP1 in regulating cardiac hypertrophy was determined by transcriptome analysis. Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were cultured to elucidate the role and mechanism of LUZP1 in vitro. RESULTS LUZP1 expression was progressively increased in hypertrophic hearts after TAC surgery. Gain- and loss-of-function methods revealed that cardiac-specific LUZP1 deficiency aggravated, while cardiac-specific LUZP1 overexpression attenuated pressure overload-elicited hypertrophic growth and cardiac dysfunction in vivo and in vitro. Mechanistically, the transcriptome data identified Stat3 pathway as a key downstream target of LUZP1 in regulating pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Cardiac-specific Stat3 deletion abolished the pro-hypertrophic role in LUZP1 cKO mice after TAC surgery. Further findings suggested that LUZP1 elevated the expression of Src homology region 2 domain-containing phosphatase 1 (SHP1) to inactivate Stat3 pathway, and SHP1 silence blocked the anti-hypertrophic effects of LUZP1 in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSION We demonstrate that LUZP1 attenuates pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy through inhibiting Stat3 signaling, and targeting LUZP1 may develop novel approaches to treat pathological cardiac hypertrophy.

UGCG modulates heart hypertrophy through B4GalT5-mediated mitochondrial oxidative stress and the ERK signaling pathway. Cell Mol Biol Lett 2023; 28:71.

Abstract
Mechanical pressure overload and other stimuli often contribute to heart hypertrophy, a significant factor in the induction of heart failure. The UDP-glucose ceramide glycosyltransferase (UGCG) enzyme plays a crucial role in the metabolism of sphingolipids through the production of glucosylceramide. However, its role in heart hypertrophy remains unknown. In this study, UGCG was induced in response to pressure overload in vivo and phenylephrine stimulation in vitro. Additionally, UGCG downregulation ameliorated cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, improved cardiomyocyte mitochondrial oxidative stress, and reduced the ERK signaling pathway. Conversely, UGCG overexpression in cardiomyocytes promoted heart hypertrophy development, aggravated mitochondrial oxidative stress, and stimulated ERK signaling. Furthermore, the interaction between beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 5 (B4GalT5), which catalyses the synthesis of lactosylceramide, and UGCG was identified, which also functions as a synergistic molecule of UGCG. Notably, limiting the expression of B4GalT5 impaired the capacity of UGCG to promote myocardial hypertrophy, suggesting that B4GalT5 acts as an intermediary for UGCG. Overall, this study highlights the potential of UGCG as a modulator of heart hypertrophy, rendering it a potential target for combating heart hypertrophy.

Abstract
Arrhythmia is one of the commonly heart diseases with observed abnormal heart-beat rhythm that caused by the obstacles of cardiac activity and conduction. The arrhythmic pathogenesis is complex and capricious and related with other cardiovascular diseases that may lead to heart failure and sudden death. In particular, calcium overload is recognized as the main reason causing arrhythmia through inducing apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. Moreover, calcium channel blockers have been widely used as the routine drugs for the treatment of arrhythmia, but the different arrhythmic complications and adverse effects limit their further applications and demand new drug discovery. Natural products have always been the rich minerals for the development of new drugs that could be employed as the versatile player for the discovery of safe and effective anti-arrhythmia drugs with new mechanisms. In this review, we summarized natural products with the activity against calcium signaling and the relevant mechanism of actions. We are expected to provide an inspiration for the pharmaceutical chemists to develop more potent calcium channel blockers for the treatment of arrhythmia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Doxorubicin (DOX) is commonly used for chemotherapy; however, its clinical value is extremely dampened because of the fatal cardiotoxicity. Leucine zipper protein 1 (LUZP1) plays critical roles in cardiovascular development, and this study is designed for determining its function and mechanism in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. METHODS Cardiac-specific Luzp1 knockout (cKO) and transgenic (cTG) mice received a single or repeated DOX injections to establish acute and chronic cardiotoxicity. Biomarkers of inflammation, oxidative damage and cell apoptosis were evaluated. Transcriptome and co-immunoprecipitation analysis were used to screen the underlying molecular pathways. Meanwhile, primary cardiomyocytes were applied to confirm the beneficial effects of LUZP1 in depth. RESULTS LUZP1 was upregulated in DOX-injured hearts and cardiomyocytes. Cardiac-specific LUZP1 deficiency aggravated, while cardiac-specific LUZP1 overexpression attenuated DOX-associated inflammation, oxidative damage, cell apoptosis and acute cardiac injury. Mechanistic studies revealed that LUZP1 ameliorated DOX-induced cardiotoxicity through activating 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway, and AMPK deficiency abolished the cardioprotection of LUZP1. Further findings suggested that LUZP1 interacted with protein phosphatase 1 to activate AMPK pathway. Moreover, we determined that cardiac-specific LUZP1 overexpression could also attenuate DOX-associated chronic cardiac injury in mice. CONCLUSION LUZP1 attenuates DOX-induced inflammation, oxidative damage, cell apoptosis and ventricular impairment through regulating AMPK pathway, and gene therapy targeting LUZP1 may provide novel therapeutic approached to treat DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

Nutrients 2023; 15:2232. [PMID: 37432400 PMCID: PMC10181444 DOI: 10.3390/nu15092232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Hypertrophic stress-induced cardiac remodeling is a compensatory mechanism associated with cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and cardiac fibrosis. Continuation of this response eventually leads to heart failure. The histone acetyltransferase p300 plays an important role in the development of heart failure, and may be a target for heart failure therapy. The phenolic phytochemical 6-shogaol, a pungent component of raw ginger, has various bioactive effects; however, its effect on cardiovascular diseases has not been investigated. One micromolar of 6-shogaol suppressed phenylephrine (PE)-induced increases in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in rat primary cultured cardiomyocytes. In rat primary cultured cardiac fibroblasts, 6-shogaol suppressed transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β)-induced increases in L-proline incorporation. It also blocked PE- and TGF-β-induced increases in histone H3K9 acetylation in the same cells and in vitro. An in vitro p300-HAT assay revealed that 6-shogaol suppressed histone acetylation. The mice underwent transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery, and were administered 0.2 or 1 mg/kg of 6-shogaol daily for 8 weeks. 6-shogaol prevented TAC-induced systolic dysfunction and cardiac hypertrophy in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, it also significantly inhibited TAC-induced increases in histone H3K9 acetylation. These results suggest that 6-shogaol may ameliorate heart failure through a variety of mechanisms, including the inhibition of p300-HAT activity.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathies are a clinically heterogeneous group of cardiac diseases characterized by heart muscle damage, resulting in myocardium disorders, diminished cardiac function, heart failure, and even sudden cardiac death. The molecular mechanisms underlying the damage to cardiomyocytes remain unclear. Emerging studies have demonstrated that ferroptosis, an iron-dependent non-apoptotic regulated form of cell death characterized by iron dyshomeostasis and lipid peroxidation, contributes to the development of ischemic cardiomyopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy, and septic cardiomyopathy. Numerous compounds have exerted potential therapeutic effects on cardiomyopathies by inhibiting ferroptosis. In this review, we summarize the core mechanism by which ferroptosis leads to the development of these cardiomyopathies. We emphasize the emerging types of therapeutic compounds that can inhibit ferroptosis and delineate their beneficial effects in treating cardiomyopathies. This review suggests that inhibiting ferroptosis pharmacologically may be a potential therapeutic strategy for cardiomyopathy treatment.

SENP1 Protects Against Pressure Overload‐Induced Cardiac Remodeling and Dysfunction Via Inhibiting STAT3 Signaling. J Am Heart Assoc 2022; 11:e027004.

Abstract
Background
SENP1 (sentrin/small ubiquitin‐like modifier‐specific protease 1) has emerged as a significant modulator involved in the pathogenesis of a variety of human diseases, especially cancer. However, the regulatory roles of SENP1 in cardiovascular biology and diseases remain controversial. Our current study aims to clarify the function and regulation of SENP1 in pressure overload‐induced cardiac remodeling and dysfunction.
Methods and Results
We used a preclinical mouse model of transverse aortic constriction coupled with in vitro studies in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes to study the role of SENP1 in cardiac hypertrophy. Gene delivery system was used to knockdown or overexpress SENP1 in vivo. Here, we observed that SENP1 expression was significantly augmented in murine hearts following transverse aortic constriction as well as neonatal rat cardiomyocytes treated with phenylephrine or angiotensin II. Cardiac‐specific SENP1 knockdown markedly exacerbated transverse aortic constriction‐induced cardiac hypertrophy, systolic dysfunction, fibrotic response, and cellular apoptosis. In contrast, adenovirus‐mediated SENP1 overexpression in murine myocardium significantly attenuated cardiac remodeling and dysfunction following chronic pressure overload. Mechanistically, JAK2 (Janus kinase 2) and STAT3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) acted as new interacting partners of SENP1 in this process. SENP1‐JAK2/STAT3 interaction suppressed STAT3 nuclear translocation and activation, ultimately inhibiting the transcription of prohypertrophic genes and the initiation of hypertrophic response. Furthermore, cardiomyocyte‐specific STAT3 knockout mice were generated to validate the underlying mechanisms, and the results showed that STAT3 ablation blunted the cardiac hypertrophy‐promoting effects of SENP1 deficiency. Additionally, pharmacological inhibition of SENP1 by Momordin Ic amplified cardiac remodeling post‐transverse aortic constriction.
Conclusions
Our study provided evidence that SENP1 protected against pressure overload‐induced cardiac remodeling and dysfunction via inhibiting STAT3 signaling. SENP1 supplementation might constitute a new promising treatment against cardiac hypertrophy. Notably, cardiovascular side effects should be seriously considered while applying systemic SENP1 blockers to suppress tumors.

Abstract
Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) is a key protein responsible for transporting Ca2+ ions from the cytosol into the lumen of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER), thus maintaining Ca2+ homeostasis within cells. Accumulating evidence suggests that impaired SERCA function is associated with disruption of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and induction of ER stress, leading to different chronic pathological conditions. Therefore, appropriate strategies to control Ca2+ homeostasis via modulation of either SERCA pump activity/expression or relevant signaling pathways may represent a useful approach to combat pathological states associated with ER stress. Natural dietary polyphenolic compounds, such as resveratrol, gingerol, ellagic acid, luteolin, or green tea polyphenols, with a number of health-promoting properties, have been described either to increase SERCA activity/expression directly or to affect Ca2+ signaling pathways. In this review, potential Ca2+-mediated effects of the most studied polyphenols on SERCA pumps or related Ca2+ signaling pathways are summarized, and relevant mechanisms of their action on Ca2+ regulation with respect to various ER stress-related states are depicted. All data were collected using scientific search tools (i.e., Science Direct, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Nephrotoxicity induced by the chemotherapeutic drug arsenic trioxide (ATO) is often overlooked, and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Based on network pharmacology and experimental validation, this study investigates the protection of 6-gingerol (6G) against ATO-induced nephrotoxicity and the potential mechanisms. METHODS We screened and collected 6G and disease-related targets and then imported the interaction targets into a String database to construct protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were performed using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID). Mice were injected intraperitoneally with ATO (5 mg/kg) for seven days to induce nephrotoxicity, and then the histological morphology of the kidneys, biochemical indices of serum and tissues, and associated protein expressions were observed. RESULTS The network pharmacology results revealed that the effects of 6G against nephrotoxicity are closely related to apoptosis, and the MAPKs pathway was screened for validation. In animal experiments, 6G improved the histopathological morphology of the kidneys, reduced the levels of renal function markers, enhanced antioxidant activity, and decreased the levels of inflammation. Furthermore, 6G reduced apoptotic cells in kidney tissues, decreased the levels of Bax and c-Caspase-3, and increased the level of Bcl-2. The results of immunohistochemistry and western blotting revealed that 6G significantly inhibited the expressions of p-p38, p-ERK, and p-JNK. CONCLUSION The results comprehensively demonstrate the protective effects of 6G against ATO-induced nephrotoxicity. The effects are related to anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties, possibly through inhibition of the MAPKs pathway.

NEU1 Regulates Mitochondrial Energy Metabolism and Oxidative Stress Post-myocardial Infarction in Mice via the SIRT1/PGC-1 Alpha Axis. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:821317.

Abstract
Objective Neuraminidase 1 (NEU1) participates in the response to multiple receptor signals and regulates various cellular metabolic behaviors. Importantly, it is closely related to the occurrence and progression of cardiovascular diseases. Because ischemic heart disease is often accompanied by impaired mitochondrial energy metabolism and oxidative stress. The purpose of this study was to investigate the functions and possible mechanisms of NEU1 in myocardial remodeling and mitochondrial metabolism induced by myocardial infarction (MI). Methods In this study, the MI-induced mouse mode, hypoxia-treated H9C2 cells model, and hypoxia-treated neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) model were constructed. Echocardiography and histological analysis were adopted to evaluate the morphology and function of the heart at the whole heart level. Western blot was adopted to determine the related expression level of signaling pathway proteins and mitochondria. Mitochondrial energy metabolism and oxidative stress were detected by various testing kits. Results Neuraminidase 1 was markedly upregulated in MI cardiac tissue. Cardiomyocyte-specific NEU1 deficiency restored cardiac function, cardiac hypertrophy, and myocardial interstitial fibrosis. What is more, cardiomyocyte-specific NEU1 deficiency inhibited mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress induced by MI. Further experiments found that the sirtuin-1/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator α (SIRT1/PGC-1α) protein level in MI myocardium was down-regulated, which was closely related to the above-mentioned mitochondrial changes. Cardiomyocyte-specific NEU1 deficiency increased the expression of SIRT1, PGC-1α, and mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM); which improved mitochondrial metabolism and oxidative stress. Inhibition of SIRT1 activity or PGC-1α activity eliminated the beneficial effects of cardiomyocyte-specific NEU1 deficiency. PGC-1α knockout mice experiments verified that NEU1 inhibition restored cardiac function induced by MI through SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathway. Conclusion Cardiomyocyte-specific NEU1 deficiency can alleviate MI-induced myocardial remodeling, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial energy metabolism disorder. In terms of mechanism, the specific deletion of NEU1 may play a role by enhancing the SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathway. Therefore, cardiomyocyte-specific NEU1 may provide an alternative treatment strategy for heart failure post-MI.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is the most prevalent primary bone malignancy in adolescents, and ferroptosis is implicated in its pathogenesis. MicroRNA (miR)-1287-5p plays critical roles in multiple human cancers, and the present study aims to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of miR-1287-5p in regulating ferroptosis and osteosarcoma progression. Human osteosarcoma cell lines were treated with the mimic, inhibitor or matched controls of miR-1287-5p. Cell viability, colony formation, cell death ratio and ferroptosis were determined. miR-1287-5p expression was downregulated in human osteosarcoma, but upregulated upon ferroptotic stimulation. Overexpression of miR-1287-5p significantly induced, while inhibition of miR-1287-5p suppressed ferroptosis of osteosarcoma cells, thereby modulating cell viability and colony formation. Mechanistic studies indicated that miR-1287-5p directly bound to the 3'-untranslated region of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) to inhibit its protein level and activity, and that GPX4 overexpression completely abolished the miR-1287-5p mimic-mediated ferroptotic induction and tumor suppression. Moreover, the miR-1287-5p mimic dramatically sensitized human osteosarcoma cells to cisplatin chemotherapy. Our findings prove that miR-1287-5p promotes ferroptosis of osteosarcoma cells through inhibiting GPX4, identifying an adjuvant and even alternative method for the treatment of human osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Objectives: Radiotherapy improves the survival rate of cancer patients, yet it also involves some inevitable complications. Radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD) is one of the most serious complications, especially the radiotherapy of thoracic tumors, which is characterized by cardiac oxidative stress disorder and programmed cell death. At present, there is no effective treatment strategy for RIHD; in addition, it cannot be reversed when it progresses. This study aims to explore the role and potential mechanism of microRNA-223-3p (miR-223-3p) in RIHD.Methods: Mice were injected with miR-223-3p mimic, inhibitor, or their respective controls in the tail vein and received a single dose of 20 Gy whole-heart irradiation (WHI) for 16 weeks after 3 days to construct a RIHD mouse model. To inhibit adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK) or phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D), compound C (CompC) and AAV9-shPDE4D were used.Results: WHI treatment significantly inhibited the expression of miR-223-3p in the hearts; furthermore, the levels of miR-223-3p decreased in a radiation time-dependent manner. miR-223-3p mimic significantly relieved, while miR-223-3p inhibitor aggravated apoptosis, oxidative damage, and cardiac dysfunction in RIHD mice. In addition, we found that miR-223-3p mimic improves WHI-induced myocardial injury by activating AMPK and that the inhibition of AMPK by CompC completely blocks these protective effects of miR-223-3p mimic. Further studies found that miR-223-3p lowers the protein levels of PDE4D and inhibiting PDE4D by AAV9-shPDE4D blocks the WHI-induced myocardial injury mediated by miR-223-3p inhibitor.Conclusion: miR-223-3p ameliorates WHI-induced RIHD through anti-oxidant and anti-programmed cell death mechanisms via activating AMPK by PDE4D regulation. miR-223-3p mimic exhibits potential value in the treatment of RIHD.

Ubiquitin-Specific Protease 29 Exacerbates Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Mice. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:6955628. [PMID: 34824671 PMCID: PMC8610700 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6955628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2021] [Revised: 10/02/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Oxidative stress and apoptosis contribute to the progression of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Ubiquitin-specific protease 29 (USP29) is abundantly expressed in the brain and plays critical roles in regulating oxidative stress and cell apoptosis. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of USP29 in cerebral I/R injury. Neuron-specific USP29 knockout mice were generated and subjected to cerebral I/R surgery. For USP29 overexpression, mice were stereotactically injected with the adenoassociated virus serotype 9 vectors carrying USP29 for 4 weeks before cerebral I/R. And primary cortical neurons were isolated and exposed to oxygen glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) stimulation to imitate cerebral I/R injury in vitro. USP29 expression was elevated in the brain and primary cortical neurons upon I/R injury. Neuron-specific USP29 knockout significantly diminished, whereas USP29 overexpression aggravated cerebral I/R-induced oxidative stress, apoptosis, and neurological dysfunction in mice. In addition, OGD/R-induced oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis were also attenuated by USP29 silence but exacerbated by USP29 overexpression in vitro. Mechanistically, neuronal USP29 enhanced p53/miR-34a-mediated silent information regulator 1 downregulation and then promoted the acetylation and suppression of brain and muscle ARNT-like protein, thereby aggravating oxidative stress and apoptosis upon cerebral I/R injury. Our findings for the first time identify that USP29 upregulation during cerebral I/R may contribute to oxidative stress, neuronal apoptosis, and the progression of cerebral I/R injury and that inhibition of USP29 may help to develop novel therapeutic strategies to treat cerebral I/R injury.

Abstract
Glioblastoma is one of the most frequent malignant tumors derived from the brain in adults with very poor prognosis. Ferroptosis is implicated in the initiation and progression of various tumors, including the glioblastoma. The present study aims to investigate the function of microRNA (miR)-670-3p in glioblastoma, and tries to demonstrate whether ferroptosis is involved in this process. Human glioblastoma cell lines, U87MG and A172, were transfected with the inhibitor, mimic and matched negative controls of miR-670-3p to manipulate intracellular miR-670-3p level. To validate the involvement of ferroptosis in miR-670-3p inhibitor-mediated tumor suppressive effects, ferrostain-1 and liproxstatin-1 were used to inhibit ferroptosis in the presence of miR-670-3p inhibitor. In addition, the small interfering RNA against acyl-CoA synthase long chain family member 4 (ACSL4) was used to knock down endogenous ACSL4 expression. To validate the combined effects between miR-670-3p inhibitor and temozolomide (TMZ), cells were pretreated with TMZ and then transfected with or without miR-670-3p inhibitor. miR-670-3p level was elevated in human glioblastoma, but decreased upon ferroptotic stimulation. miR-670-3p inhibitor suppressed, while miR-670-3p mimic promoted glioblastoma cell growth through modulating ferroptosis. Mechanistically, ACSL4 was required for the regulation on ferroptosis and growth of glioblastoma cells by miR-670-3p. Moreover, U87MG and A172 cells treated with miR-670-3p inhibitor showed an increased chemosensitivity to TMZ. We prove that miR-670-3p suppresses ferroptosis of human glioblastoma cells through targeting ACSL4, and that inhibiting miR-670-3p can be an alternative, at least adjuvant strategy to treat glioblastoma.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a newly described regulated form of cell death that contributes to the progression of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs). MicroRNA-302a-3p (miR-302a-3p) plays critical roles in the tumorigenicity of different cancers; however, its function and underlying mechanism in ferroptosis and NSCLCs remain unclear. Human NSCLCs cells were incubated with miR-302a-3pmimic or inhibitor in the presence or absence of erastin or RSL3. Cell viability, colony numbers, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) releases, lipid peroxidation and intracellular iron level were measured. Besides, the synergistic effects of cisplatin and paclitaxel with miR-302a-3p were determined. miR-302a-3p level was reduced in human NSCLCs cells and tissues. ThemiR-302a-3p mimic induced lipid peroxidation, iron overload and ferroptosis, thereby inhibiting cell growth and colony formation of NSCLCs cells. Conversely, the miR-302a-3p inhibitor block ederastin- or RSL3-related ferroptosis and tumor suppression. Additionally, we found that miR-302a-3p directly bound to the 3'-untranslational region of ferroportin to decrease its protein expression, and that ferroportin overexpression significantly prevented miR-302a-3p mimic-induced ferroptosis and tumor inhibition. Moreover, the miR-302a-3p mimic sensitized NSCLCs cells to cisplatin and paclitaxel chemotherapy. miR-302a-3p functions as a tumor inhibitor, at least partly, via targeting ferroportin to induce ferroptosis of NSCLCs.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is a common lethal malignancy and causes great cancer-related mortality worldwide. MicroRNA (miR)-328-3p is implicated in the progression of various human cancers; however, its role and mechanism in the progression of gastric cancer remain unclear.Human gastric cancer cells were incubated with miR-328-3p mimic, inhibitor or the matched negative control. Cell viability, colony formation, migrative and invasive capacity, cell apoptosis and oxidative stress were measured. To clarify the involvement of nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 (NRF2) and kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), small interfering RNA was used. miR-328-3p was upregulated in human gastric cancer cells and tissues, and its level positively correlated with the progression of gastric cancer. miR-328-3p promoted cell viability, colony formation, migration and invasion, thereby facilitating the progression of gastric cancer. miR-328-3p mimic reduced, while miR-328-3p inhibitor increased apoptosis and oxidative stress of human gastric cancer cells. Mechanistically, miR-328-3p upregulated NRF2 via targeting KEAP1to attenuate excessive free radical production and cell apoptosis. miR-328-3p functions as an oncogenic gene and inhibiting miR-328-3p may help to develop novel therapeutic strategies of human gastric cancer.
