Lysosomal dysfunction-derived autophagy impairment of gingival epithelial cells in diabetes-associated periodontitis with altered protein acetylation. Cell Signal 2024; 121:111273. [PMID: 38950874 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2024.111273] [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: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 06/08/2024] [Accepted: 06/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
Diabetes-associated periodontitis (DP) presents severe inflammation and resistance to periodontal conventional treatment, presenting a significant challenge in clinical management. In this study, we investigated the underlying mechanism driving the hyperinflammatory response in gingival epithelial cells (GECs) of DP patients. Our findings indicate that lysosomal dysfunction under high glucose conditions leads to the blockage of autophagy flux, exacerbating inflammatory response in GECs. Single-cell RNA sequencing and immunohistochemistry analyses of clinical gingival epithelia revealed dysregulation in the lysosome pathway characterized by reduced levels of lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 (LAMP2) and V-type proton ATPase 16 kDa proteolipid subunit c (ATP6V0C) in subjects with DP. In vitro stimulation of human gingival epithelial cells (HGECs) with a hyperglycemic microenvironment showed elevated release of proinflammatory cytokines, compromised lysosomal acidity and blocked autophagy. Moreover, HGECs with deficiency in ATP6V0C demonstrated impaired autophagy and heightened inflammatory response, mirroring the effects of high glucose stimulation. Proteomic analysis of acetylation modifications identified altered acetylation levels in 28 autophagy-lysosome pathway-related proteins and 37 sites in HGECs subjected to high glucose stimulation or siATP6V0C. Overall, our finding highlights the pivotal role of lysosome impairment in autophagy obstruction in DP and suggests a potential impact of altered acetylation of relevant proteins on the interplay between lysosome dysfunction and autophagy blockage. These insights may pave the way for the development of effective therapeutic strategies against DP.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024:e2400598.

Abstract
Advanced age is a major risk factor for age-related degenerative tendinopathy. During aging, tendon stem/progenitor cell (TSPC) function declines owing to the transition from a normal quiescent state to a senescent state. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from young stem cells are reported to possess anti-aging functions. However, it remains unclear whether EVs from young TSPCs (TSPC-EVs) can rejuvenate senescent TSPCs to delay age-related degeneration. Here, this study finds that TSPC-EVs can mitigate the aging phenotypes of senescent TSPCs and maintain their tenogenic capacity. In vitro studies reveal that TSPC-EVs can reinstall autophagy in senescent TSPCs to alleviate cellular senescence, and that the re-establishment of autophagy is mediated by the PI3K/AKT pathway. Mechanistically, this study finds that thrombospondin 1, a negative regulator of the PI3K/AKT pathway, is enriched in TSPC-EVs and can be transported to senescent TSPCs. Moreover, in vivo studies show that the local delivery of TSPC-EVs can rejuvenate senescent TSPCs and promote their tenogenic differentiation, thereby rescuing tendon regeneration in aged rats. Taken together, TSPC-EVs as a novel cell-free approach have promising therapeutic potential for aging-related degenerative tendinopathy.

BIOMOLECULES & BIOMEDICINE 2024; 24:505-519. [PMID: 37902450 PMCID: PMC11088893 DOI: 10.17305/bb.2023.9698] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023]
Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is an important pathogenic factor in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14) has been implicated in mitochondrial fission processes. This research aimed to investigate the mechanism of METTL14 in the mitochondrial function of NAFLD. We first established NAFLD mouse models and cell models, recording body and liver weights and examining pathological changes in liver tissues. Subsequently, serum levels of liver function indices (aspartate aminotransferase [AST], alanine aminotransferase [ALT], total cholesterol [TC], and triglycerides [TG]), inflammatory markers (tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], interleukin [IL]-6, and IL-1β), and mitochondrial dysfunction indicators (fission 1 protein [Fis1], dynamin-related protein 1 [Drp1], mitofusin 2 [Mfn2], SID1 transmembrane family member 2 [SIDT2], and mitochondrial membrane potential [MMP]) in the liver and cells were evaluated. The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification level of primary microRNA (pri-miRNA) and m6A enrichment on pri-miR-34a were quantified. Co-immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter gene assays were utilized to validate gene interactions. Our findings revealed highly elevated METTL14 expression in NAFLD mouse and cell models. Silencing METTL14 reduced weight gain and mitigated adverse liver function indices, inflammation, hepatic steatosis, and structural damage in NAFLD mice. It also led to a decrease in Fis1/Drp1 levels and an increase in MMP/Mfn2 in the liver and cells. Moreover, METTL14 increased the m6A level, promoting the binding of DiGeorge syndrome critical region 8 (DGCR8) to pri-miR-34a, which enhanced miR-34a-5p expression. Databases and dual-luciferase reporter gene assays indicated that miR-34a-5p could suppress SIDT2 expression. The overexpression of miR-34a-5p or inhibition of SIDT2 expression negated the alleviative effects of METTL14 silencing on mitochondrial homeostasis imbalance. In conclusion, METTL14, through m6A modification, modulates the miR-34a-5p/SIDT2 axis, impairing mitochondrial homeostasis in NAFLD.

Abstract
Mitophagy, a selective autophagic process, has emerged as a pathway involved in degrading dysfunctional mitochondria. Herein, new platinum(II)-based chemotherapeutics with mitophagy-targeting properties are proposed. Four novel binuclear anticancer Pt(II) complexes with 4'-substituted-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine derivatives (tpy1-tpy4), i.e., [Pt2(tpy1)(DMSO)2Cl4]·CH3OH (tpy1Pt), [Pt(tpy2)Cl][Pt(DMSO)Cl3]·CH3COCH3 (tpy2Pt), [Pt(tpy3)Cl][Pt(DMSO)Cl3] (tpy3Pt), and [Pt(tpy4)Cl]Cl·CH3OH (tpy4Pt), were designed and prepared. Moreover, their potential antitumor mechanism was studied. Tpy1Pt-tpy4Pt exhibited more selective cytotoxicity against cisplatin-resistant SK-OV-3/DDP (SKO3cisR) cancer cells compared with those against ovarian SK-OV-3 (SKO3) cancer cells and normal HL-7702 liver (H702) cells. This selective cytotoxicity of Tpy1Pt-tpy4Pt was better than that of its ligands (i.e., tpy1-tpy4), the clinical drug cisplatin, and cis-Pt(DMSO)2Cl2. The results of various experiments indicated that tpy1Pt and tpy2Pt kill SKO3cisR cancer cells via a mitophagy pathway, which involves the disruption of the mitophagy-related protein expression, dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential, elevation of the [Ca2+] and reactive oxygen species levels, promotion of mitochondrial DNA damage, and reduction in the adenosine triphosphate and mitochondrial respiratory chain levels. Furthermore, in vivo experiments indicated that the dinuclear anticancer Pt(II) coordination compound (tpy1Pt) has remarkable therapeutic efficiency (ca. 52.4%) and almost no toxicity. Therefore, the new 4'-substituted-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine Pt(II) coordination compound (tpy1Pt) is a potential candidate for next-generation mitophagy-targeting dinuclear Pt(II)-based anticancer drugs.

Abstract
The SID1 transmembrane family, member 2, namely, Sidt2, is a highly glycosylated multichannel lysosomal transmembrane protein, but its specific physiological function remains unknown. Lysosomal membrane proteins are very important for the executive functioning of lysosomes. As an important part of the lysosomal membrane, Sidt2 can maintain the normal morphology of lysosomes and help stabilize them from the acidic pH environment within. As a receptor/transporter, it binds and transports nucleic acids and mediates the uptake and degradation of RNA and DNA by the lysosome. During glucose metabolism, deletion of Sidt2 can cause an increase in fasting blood glucose and the impairment of grape tolerance, which is closely related to the secretion of insulin. During lipid metabolism, the loss of Sidt2 can cause hepatic steatosis and lipid metabolism disorders and can also play a role in signal regulation and transport. Here, we review the function of the lysosomal membrane protein Sidt2, and focus on its role in glucose and lipid metabolism, autophagy and nucleotide (DNA/RNA) transport.

Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2023; 474:116625. [PMID: 37451322 DOI: 10.1016/j.taap.2023.116625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that the anticancer activity of acridine derivatives is mediated through the regulation of anti-apoptotic and pro-apoptotic BCL2 protein expression. Therefore, we investigated whether the cytotoxicity of amsacrine with an acridine structural scaffold in human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) K562 cells was mediated by BCL2 family proteins. Amsacrine induced apoptosis, mitochondrial depolarization, and BCL2L1 (also known as BCL-XL) downregulation in K562 cells. BCL2L1 overexpression inhibited amsacrine-induced cell death and mitochondrial depolarization. Amsacrine treatment triggered SIDT2-mediated miR-25 downregulation, leading to increased NOX4-mediated ROS production. ROS-mediated inactivation of ERK triggered miR-22 expression, leading to increased HuR mRNA decay. As HuR is involved in stabilizing BCL2L1 mRNA, downregulation of BCL2L1 was noted in K562 cells after amsacrine treatment. In contrast, amsacrine-induced BCL2L1 downregulation was alleviated by restoring ERK phosphorylation and HuR expression. Altogether, the results of this study suggest that amsacrine triggers apoptosis in K562 cells by inhibiting BCL2L1 expression through the SIDT2/NOX4/ERK-mediated downregulation of HuR. Furthermore, a similar pathway also explains the cytotoxicity of amsacrine in CML MEG-01 and KU812 cells.

Abstract
Organelles perform critical biological functions due to their distinct molecular composition and internal environment. Disorders in organelles or their interacting networks have been linked to the incidence of numerous diseases, and the research of pharmacological actions at the organelle level has sparked pharmacists' interest. Currently, cell imaging has evolved into a critical tool for drug delivery, drug discovery, and pharmacological research. The introduction of advanced imaging techniques in recent years has provided researchers with richer biological information for viewing and studying the ultrastructure of organelles, protein interactions, and gene transcription activities, leading to the design and delivery of precision-targeted drugs. Therefore, this reviews the research on organelles-targeted drugs based upon imaging technologies and development of fluorescent molecules for medicinal purposes. We also give a thorough analysis of a number of subcellular-level elements of drug development, including subcellular research instruments and methods, organelle biological event investigation, subcellular target and drug identification, and design of subcellular delivery systems. This review will make it possible to promote drug research from the individual/cellular level to the subcellular level, as well as give a new focus based on newly found organelle activities.

Abstract
The systemic RNAi-defective (SID) transmembrane family member 2 (SIDT2) is a putative nucleic acid channel or transporter that plays essential roles in nucleic acid transport and lipid metabolism. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopy (EM) structures of human SIDT2, which forms a tightly packed dimer with extensive interactions mediated by two previously uncharacterized extracellular/luminal β-strand-rich domains and the unique transmembrane domain (TMD). The TMD of each SIDT2 protomer contains eleven transmembrane helices (TMs), and no discernible nucleic acid conduction pathway has been identified within the TMD, suggesting that it may act as a transporter. Intriguingly, TM3-6 and TM9-11 form a large cavity with a putative catalytic zinc atom coordinated by three conserved histidine residues and one aspartate residue lying approximately 6 Å from the extracellular/luminal surface of the membrane. Notably, SIDT2 can hydrolyze C18 ceramide into sphingosine and fatty acid with a slow rate. The information presented advances the understanding of the structure-function relationships in the SID1 family proteins.

Abstract
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a highly contagious viral disease which causes economic losses to the cattle industry. Ethyl gallate (EG) is a phenolic acid derivative which has various potentials to modulate the host response to pathogens, such as via antioxidant activity, antibacterial activity, inhibition of the production of cell adhesion factors, and so on. This study aimed to evaluate if EG influences BVDV infection in Madin-Darby Bovine Kidney (MDBK) cells, and to understand the antiviral mechanism. Data indicated that EG effectively inhibited BVDV infection by co-treatment and post-treatment in MDBK cells with noncytotoxic doses. In addition, EG suppressed BVDV infection at an early stage of the viral life cycle by blocking entry and replication steps but not viral attachment and release. Moreover, EG strongly inhibited BVDV infection by promoting interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) expression, which localized to the cytoplasm. The protein level of cathepsin B was significantly reduced by BVDV infection, whereas with treatment with EG, it was significantly enhanced. The fluorescence intensities of acridine orange (AO) staining were significantly decreased in BVDV-infected cells but increased in EG-treated cells. Finally, Western blot and immunofluorescence analyses demonstrated that EG treatment significantly enhanced the protein levels of autophagy markers LC3 and p62. Chloroquine (CQ) significantly increased IFITM3 expression, and Rapamycin significantly decreased it. Thus, EG may regulate IFITM3 expression through autophagy. Our results showed that EG could have a solid antiviral activity on BVDV replication in MDBK cells via increased IFITM3 expression, lysosomal acidification, protease activity, and regulated autophagy. EG might have value for further development as an antiviral agent.

Li YH, Zhang S, Tang L, Feng J, Jia J, Chen Y, Liu L, Zhou J. The Role of LincRNA-EPS/Sirt1/Autophagy Pathway in the Neuroprotection Process by Hydrogen against OGD/R-Induced Hippocampal HT22 Cells Injury. J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13040631. [PMID: 37109017 PMCID: PMC10143835 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13040631] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (CI/R) injury causes high disability and mortality. Hydrogen (H2) enhances tolerance to an announced ischemic event; however, the therapeutic targets for the effective treatment of CI/R injury remain uncertain. Long non-coding RNA lincRNA-erythroid prosurvival (EPS) (lincRNA-EPS) regulate various biological processes, but their involvement in the effects of H2 and their associated underlying mechanisms still needs clarification. Herein, we examine the function of the lincRNA-EPS/Sirt1/autophagy pathway in the neuroprotection of H2 against CI/R injury. HT22 cells and an oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) model were used to mimic CI/R injury in vitro. H2, 3-MA (an autophagy inhibitor), and RAPA (an autophagy agonist) were then administered, respectively. Autophagy, neuro-proinflammation, and apoptosis were evaluated by Western blot, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, immunofluorescence staining, real-time PCR, and flow cytometry. The results demonstrated that H2 attenuated HT22 cell injury, which would be confirmed by the improved cell survival rate and decreased levels of lactate dehydrogenase. Furthermore, H2 remarkably improved cell injury after OGD/R insult via decreasing pro-inflammatory factors, as well as suppressing apoptosis. Intriguingly, the protection of H2 against neuronal OGD/R injury was abolished by rapamycin. Importantly, the ability of H2 to promote lincRNA-EPS and Sirt1 expression and inhibit autophagy were abrogated by the siRNA-lincRNA-EPS. Taken together, the findings proved that neuronal cell injury caused by OGD/R is efficiently prevented by H2 via modulating lincRNA-EPS/Sirt1/autophagy-dependent pathway. It was hinted that lincRNA-EPS might be a potential target for the H2 treatment of CI/R injury.

Abstract
Phosphorothioate (PS)-modified antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) drugs enter cells through endocytic pathways where a majority are entrapped within membrane-bound endosomes and lysosomes, representing a limiting step for antisense activity. While late endosomes have been identified as a major site for productive PS-ASO release, how lysosomes regulate PS-ASO activity beyond macromolecule degradation remains not fully understood. In this study, we reported that SID1 transmembrane family, member 2 (SIDT2), a lysosome transmembrane protein, can robustly regulate PS-ASO activity. We showed that SIDT2 is required for the proper colocalization between PS-ASO and lysosomes, suggesting an important role of SIDT2 in the entrapment of PS-ASOs in lysosomes. Mechanistically, we revealed that SIDT2 regulates lysosome cellular location. Lysosome location is largely determined by its movement along microtubules. Interestingly, we also observed an enrichment of proteins involved in microtubule function among SIDT2-binding proteins, suggesting that SIDT2 regulates lysosome location via its interaction with microtubule-related proteins. Overall, our data suggest that lysosome protein SIDT2 inhibits PS-ASO activity potentially through its interaction with microtubule-related proteins to place lysosomes at perinuclear regions, thus, facilitating PS-ASO's localization to lysosomes for degradation.

Novel glycosylation zinc(II)-cryptolepine complexes perturb mitophagy pathways and trigger cancer cell apoptosis and autophagy in SK-OV-3/DDP cells. Eur J Med Chem 2022; 243:114743. [PMID: 36116236 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2022.114743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Revised: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
With the aim of shedding some light on the mechanism of action of zinc(II) complexes in antiproliferative processes and molecular signaling pathways, three novel glycosylated zinc(II)-cryptolepine complexes, i.e., [Zn(QA1)Cl2] (Zn(QA1)), [Zn(QA2)Cl2] (Zn(QA2)), and [Zn(QA3)Cl2] (Zn(QA3)), were prepared by conjugating a glucose moiety with cryptolepine, followed by complexation of the resulting glycosylated cryptolepine compounds N-((1-(2-morpholinoethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)-benzofuro[3,2-b]quinolin-11-amine (QA1), 2-(4-((benzofuro[3,2-b]quinolin-11-ylamino)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)ethan-1-ol (QA2), and (2S,3S,4R,5R,6S)-2-(4-((benzofuro[3,2-b]quinolin-11-ylamino)-methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-6-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3,4,5-triol (QA3) with zinc(II), and their anticancer activity was evaluated. In MTT assays, Zn(QA1)-Zn(QA3) were more active against cisplatin-resistant ovarian SK-OV-3/DDP cancer cells (SK-OV-3cis) than ZnCl2 and the QA1-QA3 ligands, with IC50 values of 1.81 ± 0.50, 2.92 ± 0.32, and 1.01 ± 0.11 μM, respectively. Complexation of glycosylated cryptolepine QA3 with zinc(II) increased the antiproliferative activity of the ligand, suggesting that Zn(QA3) could act as a chaperone to deliver the active ligand intracellularly, in contrast with other cryptolepine metal complexes previously reported. In vivo and in vitro investigations suggested that Zn(QA3) exhibited enhanced anticancer activity with treatment effects comparable to those of the clinical drug cisplatin. Furthermore, Zn(QA1)-Zn(QA3) triggered SK-OV-3cis cell apoptosis through mitophagy pathways in the order Zn(QA1) > Zn(QA1) > Zn(QA2). These results demonstrate the potential of glycosylated zinc(II)-cryptolepine complexes for the development of chemotherapy drugs against cisplatin-resistant SK-OV-3cis cells.

Abstract
Three new cobalt(II) complexes, [Co(MQL)2Cl2] (CoCl), [Co(MQL)2Br2] (CoBr), and [Co(MQL)2I2] (CoI), bearing 8-methoxyquinoline (MQL) have been designed for the first time. MTT assays showed that CoCl, CoBr, and CoI exhibit much better antiproliferative activities than cisplatin toward cisplatin-resistant SK-OV-3/DDP and SK-OV-3 ovarian cancer cells, with IC50 values of as low as 0.32-5.49 μM. Further, CoCl and CoI can regulate autophagy-related proteins in SK-OV-3/DDP cells and, therefore, they can induce primarily autophagy-mediated cell apoptosis in the following order: CoCl > CoI. The different antiproliferative activities of the MQL complexes CoCl, CoBr, and CoI could be correlated with the lengths of their Co-X bonds, which adopted the following order: CoI > CoBr > CoCl. The 8-HOMQ complexes CoCl (ca. 60.1%) and CoI (ca. 48.8%) also showed potent in vivo anticancer effects after 15 days of treatment. In summary, the MQL ligand highly enhances the antiproliferative activities of cobalt(II) complexes in comparison to other previously reported 8-hydroxyquinoline metal complexes.

Abstract
Twelve new complexes Cu(L1)2-Cu(L12)2 were designed and synthesized to improve their chemotherapeutic properties. They showed considerable antiproliferative activity against T24 cancer cells but lower cytotoxicity to human normal cells HL-7702 and WI-38. A mechanism study indicated that Cu(L4)2 and Cu(L10)2 were reduced to Fenton-like Cu+ by glutathione depletion, and the resulting Cu+ catalyzed the generation of highly toxic hydroxyl radicals from excess H2O2. Simultaneously, Cu(L4)2 and Cu(L10)2 could decrease the catalase activity to restrain H2O2 transfer to H2O for enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT). These induced mitochondrial dysfunctions and endoplasmic reticulum stress to induce T24 cell apoptosis. In addition, Cu(L4)2 and Cu(L10)2 inhibited autophagy flux to promote cell apoptosis. Cu(L4)2 and Cu(L10)2 demonstrated strong tumor inhibition ability in the T24 xenograft model. Moreover, Cu(L10)2 showed higher antitumor activity and a better safety profile than the CDT agent Cu1. Cu(L10)2 exhibited excellent pharmacokinetic properties. Collectively, Cu(L4)2 and Cu(L10)2 could be developed as potential CDT candidates for cancer treatment.
