Fertility protection during chemotherapy treatment by boosting the NAD(P) + metabolome. EMBO Mol Med 2024:10.1038/s44321-024-00119-w.

Abstract
Chemotherapy induced ovarian failure and infertility is an important concern in female cancer patients of reproductive age or younger, and non-invasive, pharmacological approaches to maintain ovarian function are urgently needed. Given the role of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) as an essential cofactor for drug detoxification, we sought to test whether boosting the NAD(P)+ metabolome could protect ovarian function. We show that pharmacological or transgenic strategies to replenish the NAD+ metabolome ameliorates chemotherapy induced female infertility in mice, as measured by oocyte yield, follicle health, and functional breeding trials. Importantly, treatment of a triple-negative breast cancer mouse model with the NAD+ precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) reduced tumour growth and did not impair the efficacy of chemotherapy drugs in vivo or in diverse cancer cell lines. Overall, these findings raise the possibility that NAD+ precursors could be a non-invasive strategy for maintaining ovarian function in cancer patients, with potential benefits in cancer therapy.

FUNDC1 alleviates doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by restoring mitochondrial-endoplasmic reticulum contacts and blocked autophagic flux. Theranostics 2024; 14:3719-3738. [PMID: 38948070 PMCID: PMC11209712 DOI: 10.7150/thno.92771] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Autophagy dysregulation is known to be a mechanism of doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). Mitochondrial-Endoplasmic Reticulum Contacts (MERCs) are where autophagy initiates and autophagosomes form. However, the role of MERCs in autophagy dysregulation in DIC remains elusive. FUNDC1 is a tethering protein of MERCs. We aim to investigate the effect of DOX on MERCs in cardiomyocytes and explore whether it is involved in the dysregulated autophagy in DIC. Methods: We employed confocal microscopy and transmission electron microscopy to assess MERCs structure. Autophagic flux was analyzed using the mCherry-EGFP-LC3B fluorescence assay and western blotting for LC3BII. Mitophagy was studied through the mCherry-EGFP-FIS1 fluorescence assay and colocalization analysis between LC3B and mitochondria. A total dose of 18 mg/kg of doxorubicin was administrated in mice to construct a DIC model in vivo. Additionally, we used adeno-associated virus (AAV) to cardiac-specifically overexpress FUNDC1. Cardiac function and remodeling were evaluated by echocardiography and Masson's trichrome staining, respectively. Results: DOX blocked autophagic flux by inhibiting autophagosome biogenesis, which could be attributed to the downregulation of FUNDC1 and disruption of MERCs structures. FUNDC1 overexpression restored the blocked autophagosome biogenesis by maintaining MERCs structure and facilitating ATG5-ATG12/ATG16L1 complex formation without altering mitophagy. Furthermore, FUNDC1 alleviated DOX-induced oxidative stress and cardiomyocytes deaths in an autophagy-dependent manner. Notably, cardiac-specific overexpression of FUNDC1 protected DOX-treated mice against adverse cardiac remodeling and improved cardiac function. Conclusions: In summary, our study identified that FUNDC1-meditated MERCs exerted a cardioprotective effect against DIC by restoring the blocked autophagosome biogenesis. Importantly, this research reveals a novel role of FUNDC1 in enhancing macroautophagy via restoring MERCs structure and autophagosome biogenesis in the DIC model, beyond its previously known regulatory role as an mitophagy receptor.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a potent chemotherapeutic agent known for its multi-organ toxicity, especially in the heart, which limits its clinical application. The toxic side effects of DOX, including DNA damage, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and cell apoptosis, are intricately linked to the involvement of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). To assess the effectiveness of the NAD+ precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) in counteracting the multi-organ toxicity of DOX, a mouse model was established through DOX administration, which led to significant reductions in NAD+ in tissues with evident injury, including the heart, liver and lungs. NMN treatment alleviated both multi-organ fibrosis and mortality in mice. Mechanistically, tissue fibrosis, macrophage infiltration and DOX-related cellular damage, which are potentially implicated in the development of multi-organ fibrosis, could be attenuated by NAD+ restoration. Our findings provide compelling evidence for the benefits of NMN supplementation in mitigating the adverse effects of chemotherapeutic drugs on multiple organs.

Abstract
Breast cancer has a poor prognosis due to the toxic side effects associated with high doses of chemotherapy. Liposomal drug encapsulation has resulted in clinical success in enhancing chemotherapy tolerability. However, the formulation faces severe limitations with a lack of colloidal stability, reduced drug efficiency, and difficulties in storage conditions. Nanoarchaeosomes (NA) are a new generation of highly stable nanovesicles composed of the natural ether lipids extracted from archaea. In our study, we synthesized and characterized the NA, evaluated their colloidal stability, drug release potential, and anticancer efficacy. Transmission electron microscopy images have shown that the NA prepared from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Aeropyrum pernix K1 was in the size range of 61 ± 3 nm. The dynamic light scattering result has confirmed that the NA were stable at acidic pH (pH 4) and high temperature (70 °C). The NA exhibited excellent colloidal stability for 50 days with storage conditions at room temperature. The cell viability results have shown that the pure NA did not induce cytotoxicity in NIH 3T3 fibroblast cells and are biocompatible. Then NA were loaded with doxorubicin (NAD), and FTIR and UV-vis spectroscopy results have confirmed high drug loading efficiency of 97 ± 1% with sustained drug release for 48 h. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies in MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines showed that NAD induced cytotoxicity at less than 10 nM concentration. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) results confirmed that NAD induced late apoptosis in nearly 92% of MCF-7 cells and necrosis in the remaining cells with cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase. Our results confirmed that the NA could be a potential next-generation carrier with excellent stability, high drug loading efficiency, sustained drug release ability, and increased therapeutic efficacy, thus reducing the side effects of conventional drugs.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) coenzymes are carriers of high energy electrons in metabolism and also play critical roles in numerous signaling pathways. NAD metabolism is decreased in various cardiovascular diseases. Importantly, stimulation of NAD biosynthesis protects against heart disease under different pathological conditions. In this review, we describe pathways for both generation and catabolism of NAD coenzymes and the respective changes of these pathways in the heart under cardiac diseases, including pressure overload, myocardial infarction, cardiometabolic disease, cancer treatment cardiotoxicity, and heart failure. We next provide an update on the strategies and treatments to increase NAD levels, such as supplementation of NAD precursors, in the heart that prevent or reverse cardiomyopathy. We also introduce the approaches to manipulate NAD consumption enzymes to ameliorate cardiac disease. Finally, we discuss the mechanisms associated with improvements in cardiac function by NAD coenzymes, differentiating between mitochondria-dependent effects and those independent of mitochondrial metabolism.

Abstract
The transcriptional co-activator Yes-associated protein (YAP) functions as a downstream effector of the Hippo signaling pathway and plays a crucial role in cardiomyocyte survival. In its non-phosphorylated activated state, YAP binds to transcription factors, activating the transcription of downstream target genes. It also regulates cell proliferation and survival by selectively binding to enhancers and activating target genes. However, the upregulation of the Hippo pathway in human heart failure inhibits cardiac regeneration and disrupts astrogenesis, thus preventing the nuclear translocation of YAP. Existing literature indicates that the Hippo/YAP axis contributes to inflammation and fibrosis, potentially playing a role in the development of cardiac, vascular and renal injuries. Moreover, it is a key mediator of myofibroblast differentiation and fibrosis in the infarcted heart. Given these insights, can we harness YAP's regenerative potential in a targeted manner? In this review, we provide a detailed discussion of the Hippo signaling pathway and consolidate concepts for the development and intervention of cardiac anti-aging drugs to leverage YAP signaling as a pivotal target.

Abstract
Sirtuins belong to the class III histone deacetylases and possess nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent deacetylase activity. They are involved in the regulation of multiple signaling pathways implicated in cardiovascular diseases. Autophagy is a crucial adaptive cellular response to stress stimuli. Mounting evidence suggests a strong correlation between Sirtuins and autophagy, potentially involving cross-regulation and crosstalk. Sirtuin-mediated autophagy plays a crucial regulatory role in some cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, ischemia/reperfusion injury, hypertension, heart failure, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and drug-induced myocardial damage. In this context, we summarize the research advancements pertaining to various Sirtuins involved in autophagy and the molecular mechanisms regulating autophagy. We also elucidate the biological function of Sirtuins across diverse cardiovascular diseases and further discuss the development of novel drugs that regulate Sirtuin-mediated autophagy.

Abstract
Many studies have suggested that the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is involved in an extensive spectrum of human pathologies, including neurodegenerative disorders, cardiomyopathy, obesity, and diabetes. Further, healthy aging and longevity appear to be closely related to NAD+ and its related metabolites, including nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN). As a dietary supplement, NR appears to be well tolerated, having better pharmacodynamics and greater potency. Unfortunately, NR is a reactive molecule, often unstable during its manufacturing, transport, and storage. Recently, work related to prebiotic chemistry discovered that NR borate is considerably more stable than NR itself. However, immediately upon consumption, the borate dissociates from the NR borate and is lost in the body through dilution and binding to other species, notably carbohydrates such as fructose and glucose. The NR left behind is expected to behave pharmacologically in ways identical to NR itself. This review provides a comprehensive summary (through Q1 of 2023) of the literature that makes the case for the consumption of NR as a dietary supplement. It then summarizes the challenges of delivering quality NR to consumers using standard synthesis, manufacture, shipping, and storage approaches. It concludes by outlining the advantages of NR borate in these processes.

Chem Biol Interact 2023; 377:110469. [PMID: 37030624 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2023.110469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2022] [Revised: 03/04/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 04/10/2023]
Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX), a broad-spectrum chemotherapeutic agent for various cancers, has limited clinical application because of its serious cardiotoxicity, which is due to different mechanisms, including cardiac ferroptosis and oxidative stress. Some drugs, such as berberine or dioscin, show efficacy in impeding DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by activating Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1). However, there is no direct evidence to clarify the role of Sirt1 in DOX-induced cardiomyopathy and its underlying role in cardiac ferroptosis. In this study, C57BL/6 and cardiac-specific Sirt1-/- knockout mice were used as a DOX-induced cardiotoxicity model. We found that cardiac Sirt1 was downregulated, oxidative stress was increased and ferroptosis were obviously enhanced, as reflected by decreased Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and increased Heme oxygenase 1 (Hmox-1), exposure to DOX treatment in mice and H9c2 cells compared with the control. And Sirt1 activation was resistant to cardiac injury induced by DOX, as observed the improvement of cardiac dysfunction, and the reduction of cardiac fibrosis. However, cardiac Sirt1 deficiency aggravated Dox-induced cardiac dysfunction and cardiac remodeling, further downregulated GPX4, upregulated Hmox-1 expression and increased ROS level. In addition, Sirt1-siRNA exacerbated DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in H9c2 cells, which is similar to the results obtained in vivo. Furthermore, DOX decrease Nrf2 translocation from the cytosol to the nucleus, and Sirt1 deficiency further restrain the process, as well as the downstream Keap1 pathways, in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. This study provides direct evidence that Sirt1 plays a protective role in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by mediating ferroptosis reduction via the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway.

Abstract
Increased interest in the aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related impairments in autophagy in the brain raise important questions about regulation and treatment. Since many steps in endocytosis and autophagy depend on GTPases, new measures of cellular GTP levels are needed to evaluate energy regulation in aging and AD. The recent development of ratiometric GTP sensors (GEVALS) and findings that GTP levels are not homogenous inside cells raise new issues of regulation of GTPases by the local availability of GTP. In this review, we highlight the metabolism of GTP in relation to the Rab GTPases involved in formation of early endosomes, late endosomes, and lysosomal transport to execute the autophagic degradation of damaged cargo. Specific GTPases control macroautophagy (mitophagy), microautophagy, and chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA). By inference, local GTP levels would control autophagy, if not in excess. Additional levels of control are imposed by the redox state of the cell, including thioredoxin involvement. Throughout this review, we emphasize the age-related changes that could contribute to deficits in GTP and AD. We conclude with prospects for boosting GTP levels and reversing age-related oxidative redox shift to restore autophagy. Therefore, GTP levels could regulate the numerous GTPases involved in endocytosis, autophagy, and vesicular trafficking. In aging, metabolic adaptation to a sedentary lifestyle could impair mitochondrial function generating less GTP and redox energy for healthy management of amyloid and tau proteostasis, synaptic function, and inflammation.

Doxorubicin induces cardiomyocyte death owing to the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria by inhibiting the autophagy fusion process. Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 195:47-57.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (Dox), an anthracycline antibiotic, is an anticancer drug that inhibits DNA replication and cellular metabolic processes in cancer cells with high proliferative potential. However, Dox causes severe side effects, including myocardial damage and heart failure, but the molecular mechanism underlying Dox-induced myocardial injury remains uncertain. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of Dox on the mitochondrial quality control system and regulation of mitochondrial respiration and autophagy in an in vitro rat myoblast H9c2 cell culture model using western blotting, immunohistochemistry, the Seahorse XF24 system, and flow cytometry. Our results showed that Dox did not impair the initiation of autophagic flux or the functions of lysosomes; however, Dox affected the mitochondrial quality control system, leading to a fission-dominant morphology and impaired regulation of mitochondrial respiration, thereby increasing oxidative stress and inhibited progression of autophagy, particularly the fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes. This inhibition caused a significant decrease in the formation of autolysosomes and was responsible for the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria and subsequent increase in oxidative stress, eventually leading to increased myocardial cell death.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (Doxo) is a widely used antineoplastic drug with limited clinical application due to its deleterious dose-related side effects. We investigated whether nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) could protect against Doxo-induced cardiotoxicity and physical dysfunction in vivo. To assess the short- and long-term toxicity, two Doxo regimens were tested, acute and chronic. In the acute study, C57BL6/J (B6) mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) once with Doxo (20 mg/kg) and NMN (180 mg/kg/day, i.p.) was administered daily for five days before and after the Doxo injection. In the chronic study, B6 mice received a cumulative dose of 20 mg/kg Doxo administered in fractionated doses for five days. NMN (500 mg/kg/day) was supplied in the mice's drinking water beginning five days before the first injection of Doxo and continuing for 60 days after. We found that NMN significantly increased tissue levels of NAD+ and its metabolites and improved survival and bodyweight loss in both experimental models. In addition, NMN protected against Doxo-induced cardiotoxicity and loss of physical function in acute and chronic studies, respectively. In the heart, NMN prevented Doxo-induced transcriptomic changes related to mitochondrial function, apoptosis, oxidative stress, inflammation and p53, and promyelocytic leukemia nuclear body pathways. Overall, our results suggest that NMN could prevent Doxo-induced toxicity in heart and skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Arsenic is an environmental contaminant, and accumulating evidence has indicated that exposure to arsenic can cause various diseases, especially cardiotoxicity. Selenium (Se) exerts a vital role in the regulation of multiple physiological activities. Recently, several studies highlighted that Se treatment can effectively antagonize the toxic effects induced by arsenic. However, the exact underlying effect and mechanism of Se on Arsenic-induced cardiotoxicity has not been explored. In the current study, the arsenic trioxide (ATO)-triggered heart damage mice model was used to explore whether Se exerts protective roles in ATO-related cardiotoxicity and its potential mechanism. Our data showed that Se treatment significantly alleviated ATO-mediated cardiotoxicity evidenced by increased weight, decreased myocardial damage markers, and improved heart functions in mice. Furthermore, we demonstrated that Se remarkably inhibited ATO-mediated oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in heart tissues. Mechanistically, we showed that Se upregulated the levels of NAD+ in cardiomyocytes of the mice challenged by ATO, and this effect involved in the activation of the NAD+ biosynthesis through the salvage pathway. Collectively, our findings demonstrated that Se protected against ATO-mediated cardiotoxicity by antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects via increasing the NAD+ pool in mice.

Abstract
Background Cardiomyocyte death contributes to cardiac pathology of diabetes. Studies have shown that the RIPK3/MLKL necroptosis signaling is activated in diabetic hearts. Deletion of RIPK3 was reported to attenuate myocardial injury and heart dysfunction in streptozocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice, suggesting a potential role of necroptosis in diabetic cardiomyopathy. This study characterized cardiomyocyte necroptosis in diabetic hearts and investigated whether MLKL-mediated necroptosis is a target for cardiac protection in diabetes. Methods Type 1 diabetes was induced in RIPK3 knockout, MLKL knockout and wild-type mice. Akita Type-1 diabetic mice were injected with shRNA for MLKL. Myocardial function was assessed by echocardiography. Immuno-histological analyses determined cardiomyocyte death and fibrosis in the heart. Cultured adult mouse cardiomyocytes were incubated with high glucose in the presence of various drugs. Cell death and phosphorylation of RIPK3 and MLKL were analysed. Results We showed that the levels of phosphorylated RIPK3 and MLKL were higher in high glucose-stimulated cardiomyocytes and hearts of STZ-induced type-1 diabetic mice, akita mice and type-1 diabetic monkeys when compared to non-diabetic controls. Inhibition of RIPK3 by its pharmacological inhibitor or gene deletion, or MLKL deletion prevented high glucose-induced MLKL phosphorylation and attenuated necroptosis in cardiomyocytes. In STZ-induced type-1 diabetic mice, cardiomyocyte necroptosis was present along with elevated cardiac troponin I in serum and MLKL oligomerization, and co-localized with phosphorylated MLKL. Deletion of RIPK3 or MLKL prevented MLKL phosphorylation and cardiac necroptosis, attenuated serum cardiac troponin I levels, reduced myocardial collagen deposition and improved myocardial function in STZ-injected mice. Additionally, shRNA-mediated down-regulation of MLKL reduced cardiomyocyte necroptosis in akita mice. Interestingly, incubation with anti-diabetic drugs (empagliflozin and metformin) prevented phosphorylation of RIPK3 and MLKL, and reduced cell death in high glucose-induced cardiomyocytes. Conclusions We have provided evidence that cardiomyocyte necroptosis is present in diabetic hearts and that MLKL-mediated cardiomyocyte necroptosis contributes to diabetic cardiomyopathy. These findings highlight MLKL-mediated necroptosis as a target for cardiac protection in diabetes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW This review summarizes current understanding on the roles of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) metabolism in the pathogeneses and treatment development of metabolic and cardiac diseases. RECENT FINDINGS NAD+ was identified as a redox cofactor in metabolism and a co-substrate for a wide range of NAD+-dependent enzymes. NAD+ redox imbalance and depletion are associated with many pathologies where metabolism plays a key role, for example cardiometabolic diseases. This review is to delineate the current knowledge about harnessing NAD+ metabolism as potential therapy for cardiometabolic diseases. The review has summarized how NAD+ redox imbalance and depletion contribute to the pathogeneses of cardiometabolic diseases. Therapeutic evidence involving activation of NAD+ synthesis in pre-clinical and clinical studies was discussed. While activation of NAD+ synthesis shows great promise for therapy, the field of NAD+ metabolism is rapidly evolving. Therefore, it is expected that new mechanisms will be discovered as therapeutic targets for cardiometabolic diseases.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely used and effective antineoplastic drug; however, its clinical application is limited by cardiotoxicity. A safe and effective strategy to prevent from doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) is still beyond reach. Elabela (ELA), a new APJ ligand, has exerted cardioprotective effect against multiple cardiovascular diseases. Here, we asked whether ELA alleviates DIC. Mice were injected with DOX to established acute DIC. In vivo studies were assessed with echocardiography, serum cTnT and CK-MB, HW/BW ratio and WGA staining. Cell death and atrophy were measured by AM/PI staining and phalloidin staining respectively in vitro. Autophagic flux was monitored with Transmission electron microscopy in vivo, as well as LysoSensor and mRFP-GFP-LC3 puncta in vitro. Our results showed that ELA improved cardiac dysfunction in DIC mice. ELA administration also attenuated cell death and atrophy in DOX-challenged neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCs). Additionally, we found that ELA restored DOX-induced autophagic flux blockage, which was evidenced by the reverse of p62 and LC3II, improvement of lysosome function and accelerated degradation of accumulated autolysosomes. Chloroquine, a classical autophagic flux inhibitor, blunted the improvement of ELA on cardiac dysfunction. At last, we revealed that ELA reversed DOX-induced downregulation of transcription factor EB (TFEB), and silencing TFEB by siRNA abrogated the effects of ELA on autophagic flux as well as cell death and atrophy in NRCs. In conclusion, this study indicated that ELA ameliorated DIC through enhancing autophagic flux via activating TFEB. ELA may become a potential target against DIC.

Abstract
Anthracyclines, such as doxorubicin, are effective chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer, but their clinical use is associated with severe and potentially life-threatening cardiotoxicity. Despite decades of research, treatment options remain limited. The mitochondria is commonly considered to be the main target of doxorubicin and mitochondrial dysfunction is the hallmark of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Here, we review the pathogenic mechanisms of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and present an update on cardioprotective strategies for this disorder. Specifically, we focus on strategies that can protect the mitochondria and cover different therapeutic modalities encompassing small molecules, post-transcriptional regulators, and mitochondrial transfer. We also discuss the shortcomings of existing models of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and explore advances in the use of human pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes as a platform to facilitate the identification of novel treatments against this disorder.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a most common anthracycline chemotherapeutic agent; however, its clinical efficacy is limited due to its severe and irreversible cardiotoxicity. Ferroptosis, characterized by iron overload and lipid peroxidation, plays a pivotal role in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Resveratrol (RSV) displays cardioprotective and anticancer effects, owing to its antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the role and mechanism of RSV in DOX-mediated ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes is unclear. This study showed that DOX decreased cell viability, increased iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation in H9c2 cells; however, these effects were reversed by RSV and ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) pre-treatment. Additionally, RSV significantly increased the cell viability of H9c2 cells treated with ferroptosis inducers Erastin (Era) and RSL3. Mechanistically, RSV inhibited mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) overproduction and upregulated the p62-NRF2/HO-1 pathway. RSV-induced NRF2 activation was partially dependent on p62, and the selective inhibition of p62 (using p62-siRNA interference) or NRF2 (using NRF2 specific inhibitor, ML385) significantly abolished the anti-ferroptosis function of RSV. Furthermore, RSV treatment protected mice against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, including significantly improving left ventricular function, ameliorating myocardial fibrosis and suppressing ferroptosis. Consistent with in vitro results, RSV also upregulated the p62-NRF2/HO-1 expression, which was inhibited by DOX, in the myocardium. Notably, the protective effect of RSV in DOX-mediated ferroptosis was similar to that of Fer-1 in vitro and in vivo. Thus, the p62-NRF2 axis plays a critical role in regulating DOX-induced ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes. RSV as a potent p62 activator has potential as a therapeutic target in preventing DOX-induced cardiotoxicity via ferroptosis modulation.

Abstract
Coenzyme I (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NAD+/NADH) and coenzyme II (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, NADP+/NADPH) are involved in various biological processes in mammalian cells. NAD+ is synthesised through the de novo and salvage pathways, whereas coenzyme II cannot be synthesised de novo. NAD+ is a precursor of coenzyme II. Although NAD+ is synthesised in sufficient amounts under normal conditions, shortage in its supply due to over consumption and its decreased synthesis has been observed with increasing age and under certain disease conditions. Several studies have proved that in a wide range of tissues, such as liver, skin, muscle, pancreas, and fat, the level of NAD+ decreases with age. However, in the brain tissue, the level of NADH gradually increases and that of NAD+ decreases in aged people. The ratio of NAD+/NADH indicates the cellular redox state. A decrease in this ratio affects the cellular anaerobic glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation functions, which reduces the ability of cells to produce ATP. Therefore, increasing the exogenous NAD+ supply under certain disease conditions or in elderly people may be beneficial. Precursors of NAD+ have been extensively explored and have been reported to effectively increase NAD+ levels and possess a broad range of functions. In this review article, we discuss the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of NAD+ precursors.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Aging and/or metabolic stress directly impact the cardiovascular system. Over the last few years, the contributions of altered nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) metabolism to aging and other pathological conditions closely related to cardiovascular diseases have been intensively investigated. NAD+ bioavailability decreases with age and cardiometabolic conditions in several mammalian tissues. Compelling data suggest that declining tissue NAD+ is commonly related to mitochondrial dysfunction and might be considered as a therapeutic target. Thus, NAD+ replenishment by either genetic or natural dietary NAD+-increasing strategies has been recently demonstrated to be effective for improving the pathophysiology of cardiac and vascular health in different experimental models, as well as human health, to a lesser extent. Here, we review and discuss recent experimental evidence illustrating that increasing NAD+ bioavailability, particularly by the use of natural NAD+ precursors, may offer hope for new therapeutic strategies to prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Mitophagy specifically recognizes and removes damaged or superfluous mitochondria to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis and proper neuronal function. Defective mitophagy and the resulting accumulation of damaged mitochondria occur in several neurodegenerative diseases. Previously, we showed mitochondrial dysfunction in astrocytes with POLG mutations, and here, we examined how POLG mutations affect mitophagy in astrocytes and how this can be ameliorated pharmacologically. Using induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived astrocytes carrying POLG mutations, we found downregulation of mitophagy/autophagy-related genes using RNA sequencing-based KEGG metabolic pathway analysis. We confirmed a deficit in mitochondrial autophagosome formation under exogenous stress conditions and downregulation of the mitophagy receptor p62, reduced lipidation of LC3B-II, and decreased expression of lysosome protein lysosomal-associated membrane protein 2A (LAMP2A). These changes were regulated by the PINK1/Parkin pathway and AKT/mTOR/AMPK/ULK1 signaling pathways. Importantly, we found that double treatment with nicotinamide riboside (NR) and metformin rescued mitophagy defects and mitochondrial dysfunction in POLG-mutant astrocytes. Our findings reveal that impaired mitophagy is involved in the observed mitochondrial dysfunction caused by POLG mutations in astrocytes, potentially contributing to the phenotype in POLG-related diseases. This study also demonstrates the therapeutic potential of NR and metformin in these incurable mitochondrial diseases.

Abstract
Despite the progress in the development of new anticancer strategies, cancer is rapidly spreading around the world and remains one of the most common diseases. For more than 40 years, doxorubicin has been widely used in the treatment of solid and hematological tumors. At the same time, the problem of its cardiotoxicity remains unresolved, despite the high efficiency of this drug. Symptomatic therapy is used as a treatment for side-effects of doxorubicin or pathological conditions that have already appeared in their background. To date, there are no treatment methods for doxorubicin cardiomyopathy as such. A drug such as nicotinamide riboside can play an important role in solving this problem. Nicotinamide riboside is a pyridine nucleoside similar to vitamin B3 that acts as a precursor to NAD+. There is no published research on nicotinamide riboside effects on cardiomyopathy, despite the abundance of works devoted to the mechanisms of its effects in various pathologies. The review analyzes information about the effects of nicotinamide riboside on various experimental models of pathologies, its role in the synthesis of NAD+, and also considers the possibility and prospects of its use for the prevention of doxorubicin cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
As a potent chemotherapeutic agent, doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used for the treatment of a variety of cancers However, its clinical utility is limited by dose-dependent cardiotoxicity, and pathogenesis has traditionally been attributed to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Accordingly, the prevention of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity is an indispensable goal to optimize therapeutic regimens and reduce morbidity. Acetylation is an emerging and important epigenetic modification regulated by histone deacetylases (HDACs) and histone acetyltransferases (HATs). Despite extensive studies of the molecular basis and biological functions of acetylation, the application of acetylation as a therapeutic target for cardiotoxicity is in the initial stage, and further studies are required to clarify the complex acetylation network and improve the clinical management of cardiotoxicity. In this review, we summarize the pivotal functions of HDACs and HATs in DOX-induced oxidative stress, the underlying mechanisms, the contributions of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) and exercise-mediated deacetylases to cardiotoxicity. Furthermore, we describe research progress related to several important SIRT activators and HDAC inhibitors with potential clinical value for chemotherapy and cardiotoxicity. Collectively, a comprehensive understanding of specific roles and recent developments of acetylation in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity will provide a basis for improved treatment outcomes in cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Despite effective anticancer effects, the use of doxorubicin (Dox) is limited due to its side effects as cardiotoxicity. Corosolic acid (CRA) is a pentacyclic triterpene acid isolated from Lagerstroemia speciosa L. (Banaba) leaves, and it has also been shown to improve myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial infarction which expected to be used in clinical pharmaceuticals. The purpose of this study was to explore whether CRA can improve myocardial injury caused by Dox and to clarify potential mechanisms. C57 BL/6J mice and AMPKα2 knockout mice were given a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of Dox (5 mg/kg) every week for 4 weeks, while normal saline (NS) was used as control. Mice were given CRA (10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg) or equal volumes of normal saline daily after the first time i.p. injection of Dox. After 4 weeks, echocardiography, gravimetric, hemodynamic, histological, and biochemical analyses were conducted. After Dox injury, compared with the control group, CRA increased the survival rate of mice, improved the cardiac function, decreased the oxidative stress, and reduced the apoptosis. CRA may function by promoting transcription factor EB (TFEB) nuclear translocation and thus restoring autophagic flux. We also observed that CRA protected mitochondrial structure and function, which may benefit from oxidative stress reduction or TFEB activation. In vitro, the protective effect of CRA is reversed by TFEB deletion. Then, we evaluated the expression of AMPKα2/mTOR C1 signaling pathway, the main pathway of TFEB activation. In vivo and in vitro, CRA promoted TFEB nuclear translocation by activating AMPKα2/mTOR C1 signaling, while ablating AMPKα2 reversed these results and accompanied with a decrease in the ability of CRA to resist Dox-induced cardiotoxicity. Thus, we suggested that CRA activated TFEB in an AMPKα2-dependent manner to protect against Dox cardiotoxicity. This study confirms the role and mechanism of CRA in the treatment of Dox-induced cardiac injury. Dox-induced damage to autophagy includes autophagosomes maturation disorders and autophagolysosomes acidification defects, CRA restored autophagic flux, and promoted lysosomal degradation by activating TFEB in an AMPKα2-depended manner, stabilized mitochondrial function, ultimately protected against Dox-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
As an anthracycline antibiotic, doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most potent and widely used chemotherapeutic agents for treating various types of tumors. Unfortunately, the clinical application of this drug results in severe side effects, particularly dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. There are multiple mechanisms involved with the cardiotoxicity caused by DOX, among which intracellular iron homeostasis plays an essential role based on a recent discovery. In this mini-review, we summarize the clinical features and symptoms of DOX-dependent cardiotoxicity, discuss the correlation between iron and cardiotoxicity, and highlight the involvement of iron-dependent ferroptotic cell death therein. Recent advances in this topic will aid the development of novel DOX delivery systems with reduced adverse effects, and expand the clinical application of anthracycline.

Abstract
Despite the known risk of cardiotoxicity, anthracyclines are widely prescribed chemotherapeutic agents. They are broadly characterized as being a robust effector of cellular apoptosis in rapidly proliferating cells through its actions in the nucleus and formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). And, despite the early use of dexrazoxane, no effective treatment strategy has emerged to prevent the development of cardiomyopathy, despite decades of study, suggesting that much more insight into the underlying mechanism of the development of cardiomyopathy is needed. In this review, we detail the specific intracellular activities of anthracyclines, from the cell membrane to the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and highlight potential therapeutic windows that represent the forefront of research into the underlying causes of anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is the most effective and extensively used treatment for many tumors. However, its clinical use is hampered by its cardiotoxicity. DOX-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, which causes reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, cardiomyocyte death, bioenergetic failure, and decreased cardiac function, is a very important mechanism of cardiotoxicity. These cellular processes are all linked by mitochondrial sirtuins (SIRT3-SIRT4). Mitochondrial sirtuins preserve mitochondrial function by increasing mitochondrial metabolism, inhibiting ROS generation by activating the antioxidant enzyme manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), decreasing apoptosis by activating the forkhead homeobox type O (FOXO) and P53 pathways, and increasing autophagy through AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mTOR signaling. Thus, sirtuins function at the control point of many mechanisms involved in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In this review, we focus on the role of mitochondrial sirtuins in mitochondrial biology and DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. A further aim is to highlight other mitochondrial processes, such as autophagy (mitophagy) and mitochondrial quality control (MQC), for which the effect of mitochondrial sirtuins on cardiotoxicity is unknown.

[PMID: 33499981 PMCID: PMC7807810 DOI: 10.1186/s42523-020-00048-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2020] [Accepted: 08/05/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Gut microbiota plays important roles in host animal metabolism, homeostasis and environmental adaptation. However, the interplay between the gut microbiome and urochordate ascidian, the most closet relative of vertebrate, remains less explored. In this study, we characterized the gut microbial communities of urochordate ascidian (Halocynthia roretzi) across the changes of season and starvation stress using a comprehensive set of omic approaches including 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, shotgun metagenomics, metabolomic profiling, and transcriptome sequencing. Results The 16S rRNA gene amplicon profiling revealed that ascidians harbor indigenous gut microbiota distinctly different to the marine microbial community and significant variations in composition and abundance of gut bacteria, with predominant bacterial orders representing each season. Depressed alpha-diversities of gut microbiota were observed across starvation stress when compared to the communities in aquafarm condition. Synechococcales involving photosynthesis and its related biosynthesis was reduced in abundance while the enrichments of Xanthomonadales and Legionellales may facilitate bile acid biosynthesis during starvation. Metabolomics analysis found that long chain fatty acids, linolenic acid, cyanoamino acid, and pigments derived from gut bacteria were upregulated, suggesting a beneficial contribution of the gut microbiome to the ascidian under starvation stress. Conclusions Our findings revealed seasonal variation of ascidian gut microbiota. Defense and energy-associated metabolites derived from gut microbiome may provide an adaptive interplay between gut microbiome and ascidian host that maintains a beneficial metabolic system across season and starvation stress. The diversity-generating metabolisms from both microbiota and host might lead to the co-evolution and environmental adaptation. Graphical Abstract ![]()
