Dai L, Liu M, Ke W, Chen L, Fang X, Zhang Z. Lysosomal dysfunction in α-synuclein pathology: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic strategies. Cell Mol Life Sci 2024; 81:382.

Abstract
In orchestrating cell signaling, facilitating plasma membrane repair, supervising protein secretion, managing waste elimination, and regulating energy consumption, lysosomes are indispensable guardians that play a crucial role in preserving intracellular homeostasis. Neurons are terminally differentiated post-mitotic cells. Neuronal function and waste elimination depend on normal lysosomal function. Converging data suggest that lysosomal dysfunction is a critical event in the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). Mutations in Glucosylceramidase Beta 1 (GBA1) and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) confer an increased risk for the development of parkinsonism. Furthermore, lysosomal dysfunction has been observed in the affected neurons of sporadic PD (sPD) patients. Given that lysosomal hydrolases actively contribute to the breakdown of impaired organelles and misfolded proteins, any compromise in lysosomal integrity could incite abnormal accumulation of proteins, including α-synuclein, the major component of Lewy bodies in PD. Clinical observations have shown that lysosomal protein levels in cerebrospinal fluid may serve as potential biomarkers for PD diagnosis and as signs of lysosomal dysfunction. In this review, we summarize the current evidence regarding lysosomal dysfunction in PD and discuss the intimate relationship between lysosomal dysfunction and pathological α-synuclein. In addition, we discuss therapeutic strategies that target lysosomes to treat PD.

Agostini F, Sgalletta B, Bisaglia M. Iron Dyshomeostasis in Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA): Is It the Cause or the Effect? Cells 2024; 13:1376. [PMID: 39195264 DOI: 10.3390/cells13161376] [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: 07/22/2024] [Revised: 08/09/2024] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 08/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Iron is an essential metal ion implicated in several cellular processes. However, the reactive nature of iron renders this metal ion potentially dangerous for cells, and its levels need to be tightly controlled. Alterations in the intracellular concentration of iron are associated with different neuropathological conditions, including neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA). As the name suggests, NBIA encompasses a class of rare and still poorly investigated neurodegenerative disorders characterized by an abnormal accumulation of iron in the brain. NBIA is mostly a genetic pathology, and to date, 10 genes have been linked to familial forms of NBIA. In the present review, after the description of the principal mechanisms implicated in iron homeostasis, we summarize the research data concerning the pathological mechanisms underlying the genetic forms of NBIA and discuss the potential involvement of iron in such processes. The picture that emerges is that, while iron overload can contribute to the pathogenesis of NBIA, it does not seem to be the causal factor in most forms of the pathology. The onset of these pathologies is rather caused by a combination of processes involving the interplay between lipid metabolism, mitochondrial functions, and autophagic activity, eventually leading to iron dyshomeostasis.

Abstract
Senescence in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), triggered by excessive oxidative stress, plays a crucial role in the onset of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Recent studies underscore the importance of mitochondrial rehabilitation and quality control as key determinants in the modulation of oxidative stress and cellular senescence. MitoTEMPO, a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant, has been shown to mitigate the heightened levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In our research, we observed that BMSCs from ovariectomized (OVX) rats displayed premature senescence, which was attributed to combined mitochondrial and lysosomal dysfunction, a condition that worsens with extended estrogen deprivation. Treatment with MitoTEMPO effectively reversed these effects, reinstating lysosomal functionality and suppressing the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt). Subsequent in vivo experiments corroborated these observations, revealing that MitoTEMPO administration in OVX rats curtailed trabecular bone loss and reduced the expression of p53, HSP60, and CLPP in the trabecular bone region of the proximal tibia. Overall, our findings suggest that MitoTEMPO holds promise as a therapeutic agent to counteract senescence in OVX-BMSCs, offering a potential strategy for treating postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
Biallelic (autosomal recessive) pathogenic variants in ATP13A2 cause a form of juvenile-onset parkinsonism, termed Kufor-Rakeb syndrome. In addition to motor symptoms, a variety of other neurological and psychiatric symptoms may occur in affected individuals, including supranuclear gaze palsy and cognitive decline. Although psychotic symptoms are often reported, response to antipsychotic therapy is not well described in previous case reports/series. As such, we describe treatment response in an individual with Kufor-Rakeb syndrome-associated psychosis. His disease was caused by a homozygous novel loss-of-function ATP13A2 variant (NM_022089.4, c.1970_1975del) that was characterized in this study. Our patient exhibited a good response to quetiapine monotherapy, which he has so far tolerated well. We also reviewed the literature and summarized all previous descriptions of antipsychotic treatment response. Although its use has infrequently been described in Kufor-Rakeb syndrome, quetiapine is commonly used in other degenerative parkinsonian disorders, given its lower propensity to cause extrapyramidal symptoms. As such, quetiapine should be considered in the treatment of Kufor-Rakeb syndrome-associated psychosis when antipsychotic therapy is deemed necessary.

Abstract
ATPase cation transporting 13A2 (ATP13A2) is an endolysosomal P-type ATPase known to be a polyamine transporter, explored mostly in neurons. As endolysosomal functions are also crucial in innate immune cells, we aimed to explore the potential role of ATP13A2 in the human immunocellular compartment. We found that human plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), the professional type I IFN-producing immune cells, especially have a prominent enrichment of ATP13A2 expression in endolysosomal compartments. ATP13A2 knockdown in human pDCs interferes with cytokine induction in response to TLR9/7 activation in response to bona fide ligands. ATP13A2 plays this crucial role in TLR9/7 activation in human pDCs by regulating endolysosomal pH and mitochondrial reactive oxygen generation. This (to our knowledge) hitherto unknown regulatory mechanism in pDCs involving ATP13A2 opens up a new avenue of research, given the crucial role of pDC-derived type I IFNs in protective immunity against infections as well as in the immunopathogenesis of myriad contexts of autoreactive inflammation.

Abstract
Cancer drug resistance is associated with metabolic adaptation. Cancer cells have been shown to implicate acetylated polyamines in adaptations during cell death. However, exploring the mimetic of acetylated polyamines as a potential anticancer drug is lacking. We performed intracellular metabolite profiling of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells treated with doxorubicin (DOX), a well known anticancer drug. A novel and in-house vertical tube gel electrophoresis assisted procedure followed by LC-HRMS analysis was employed to detect acetylated polyamines such as N1-acetylspermidine. We designed a mimetic N1-acetylspermidine (MINAS) which is a known substrate of histone deacetylase 10 (HDAC10). Molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MDs) simulations were used to evaluate the inhibitory potential of MINAS against HDAC10. The inhibitory potential and the ADMET profile of MINAS were compared to a known HDAC10 inhibitor Tubastatin A. N1-acetylspermidine, an acetylated form of polyamine, was detected intracellularly in MCF-7 cells treated with DOX over DMSO-treated MCF-7 cells. We designed and curated MINAS (PubChem CID 162679241). Molecular docking and MD simulations suggested the strong and comparable inhibitory potential of MINAS (-8.2 kcal/mol) to Tubastatin A (-8.4 kcal/mol). MINAS and Tubastatin A share similar binding sites on HDAC10, including Ser138, Ser140, Tyr183, and Cys184. Additionally, MINAS has a better ADMET profile compared to Tubastatin A, with a high MRTD value and lower toxicity. In conclusion, the data show that N1-acetylspermidine levels rise during DOX-induced breast cancer cell death. Additionally, MINAS, an N1-acetylspermidine mimetic compound, could be investigated as a potential anticancer drug when combined with chemotherapy like DOX.

Abstract
In women who are getting older, the quantity and quality of their follicles or oocytes and decline. This is characterized by decreased ovarian reserve function (DOR), fewer remaining oocytes, and lower quality oocytes. As more women choose to delay childbirth, the decline in fertility associated with age has become a significant concern for modern women. The decline in oocyte quality is a key indicator of ovarian aging. Many studies suggest that age-related changes in oocyte energy metabolism may impact oocyte quality. Changes in oocyte energy metabolism affect adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) production, but how related products and proteins influence oocyte quality remains largely unknown. This review focuses on oocyte metabolism in age-related ovarian aging and its potential impact on oocyte quality, as well as therapeutic strategies that may partially influence oocyte metabolism. This research aims to enhance our understanding of age-related changes in oocyte energy metabolism, and the identification of biomarkers and treatment methods.

Abstract
Background Copper metabolism dysfunction has been found to be associated with the progression of various malignant tumors. The aim of this study is to explore the prognostic value of copper metabolism-related genes (CMRGs) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and their impact on the immune microenvironment. Methods We identified differentially expressed CMRGs in cancer and adjacent samples of HCC from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Consensus clustering was performed to distinguish subgroups, and TIMER and CIBERSORT were applied to analyze the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). We used the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and multivariate Cox regression analysis to establish a prognostic risk model for CMRGs. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed to elucidate potential signaling mechanisms associated with the risk group, as well as to determine and compare the tumor mutation burden (TMB), immune cell infiltration levels, and immune checkpoint of the identified risk groups. Results Two subgroups with significantly different survival rates were identified, with a better prognosis associated with high immune scores, high abundance of immune-infiltrating cells, and a relatively higher immune status. A prognostic risk model based on five CMRGs was constructed, which showed significant prognostic value. When combined with clinical feature column charts, this model can predict the prognosis of patients with HCC. Functional enrichment analysis showed that the low-risk group was enriched in a large number of metabolic pathways, while the high and low-risk groups exhibited different TMB and differential expression of immune checkpoint genes. The established model was validated in an independent International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) dataset. Conclusions The results indicate that the expression of CMRGs is associated with the prognosis of HCC and the tumor microenvironment, and can serve as a predictive indicator for evaluating the prognosis of HCC.

Abstract
Cellular proliferation, function and survival is reliant upon maintaining appropriate intracellular polyamine levels. Due to increased metabolic needs, cancer cells elevate their polyamine pools through coordinated metabolism and uptake. High levels of polyamines have been linked to more immunosuppressive tumor microenvironments (TME) as polyamines support the growth and function of many immunosuppressive cell types such as MDSCs, macrophages and regulatory T-cells. As cancer cells and other pro-tumorigenic cell types are highly dependent on polyamines for survival, pharmacological modulation of polyamine metabolism is a promising cancer therapeutic strategy. This review covers the roles of polyamines in various cell types of the TME including both immune and stromal cells, as well as how competition for nutrients, namely polyamine precursors, influences the cellular landscape of the TME. It also details the use of polyamines as biomarkers and the ways in which polyamine depletion can increase the immunogenicity of the TME and reprogram tumors to become more responsive to immunotherapy.

Abstract
Background Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), a major cause of blindness, is characterized by complex pathogenesis. This study integrates single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF), machine learning, and AlphaFold 2 methods to explore the molecular level of PDR. Methods We analyzed scRNA-seq data from PDR patients and healthy controls to identify distinct cellular subtypes and gene expression patterns. NMF was used to define specific transcriptional programs in PDR. The oxidative stress-related genes (ORGs) identified within Meta-Program 1 were utilized to construct a predictive model using twelve machine learning algorithms. Furthermore, we employed AlphaFold 2 for the prediction of protein structures, complementing this with molecular docking to validate the structural foundation of potential therapeutic targets. We also analyzed protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks and the interplay among key ORGs. Results Our scRNA-seq analysis revealed five major cell types and 14 subcell types in PDR patients, with significant differences in gene expression compared to those in controls. We identified three key meta-programs underscoring the role of microglia in the pathogenesis of PDR. Three critical ORGs (ALKBH1, PSIP1, and ATP13A2) were identified, with the best-performing predictive model demonstrating high accuracy (AUC of 0.989 in the training cohort and 0.833 in the validation cohort). Moreover, AlphaFold 2 predictions combined with molecular docking revealed that resveratrol has a strong affinity for ALKBH1, indicating its potential as a targeted therapeutic agent. PPI network analysis, revealed a complex network of interactions among the hub ORGs and other genes, suggesting a collective role in PDR pathogenesis. Conclusion This study provides insights into the cellular and molecular aspects of PDR, identifying potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets using advanced technological approaches.

Abstract
The fungal plasma membrane H+-ATPase (Pma1) pumps protons out of the cell to maintain the transmembrane electrochemical gradient and membrane potential. As an essential P-type ATPase uniquely found in fungi and plants, Pma1 is an attractive antifungal drug target. Two recent Cryo-EM studies on Pma1 have revealed its hexameric architecture, autoinhibitory and activation mechanisms, and proton transport mechanism. These structures provide new perspectives for the development of antifungal drugs targeting Pma1. In this article, we review the history of Pma1 structure determination, the latest structural insights into Pma1, and drug discoveries targeting Pma1.

J Surg Res 2024; 296:18-28. [PMID: 38215673 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2023.12.004] [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: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is the most common congenital heart malformation in children. This study aimed to investigate potential pathogenic genes associated with Tibetan familial VSD. METHODS Whole genomic DNA was extracted from eight Tibetan children with VSD and their healthy parents (a total of 16 individuals). Whole-exome sequencing was performed using the Illumina HiSeq platform. After filtration, detection, and annotation, single nucleotide variations and insertion-deletion markers were examined. Comparative evaluations using the Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant, PolyPhen V2, Mutation Taster, and Combined Annotation Dependent Depletion databases were conducted to predict harmful mutant genes associated with the etiology of Tibetan familial VSD. RESULTS A total of six missense mutations in genetic disease-causing genes associated with the development of Tibetan familial VSD were identified: activin A receptor type II-like 1 (c.652 C > T: p.R218 W), ATPase cation transporting 13A2 (c.1363 C > T: p.R455 W), endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (c.481 G > A: p.G161 R), MRI1 (c.629 G > A: p.R210Q), tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated protein 1 (c.224 G > A: p.R75H), and FBN2 (c.2260 G > A: p.G754S). The Human Gene Mutation Database confirmed activin A receptor type II-like 1, MRI1, and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated protein 1 as pathogenic mutations, while FBN2 was classified as a probable pathogenic mutation. CONCLUSIONS This novel study directly screens genetic variations associated with Tibetan familial VSD using whole-exome sequencing, providing new insights into the pathogenesis of VSD.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a prevalent metabolic bone disease. While drug therapy is essential to prevent bone loss in osteoporotic patients, current treatments are limited by side effects and high costs, necessitating the development of more effective and safer targeted therapies. Utilizing a zebrafish ( Danio rerio) larval model of osteoporosis, we explored the influence of the metabolite spermine on bone homeostasis. Results showed that spermine exhibited dual activity in osteoporotic zebrafish larvae by increasing bone formation and decreasing bone resorption. Spermine not only demonstrated excellent biosafety but also mitigated prednisolone-induced embryonic neurotoxicity and cardiotoxicity. Notably, spermine showcased protective attributes in the nervous systems of both zebrafish embryos and larvae. At the molecular level, Rac1 was identified as playing a pivotal role in mediating the anti-osteoporotic effects of spermine, with P53 potentially acting downstream of Rac1. These findings were confirmed using mouse ( Mus musculus) models, in which spermine not only ameliorated osteoporosis but also promoted bone formation and mineralization under healthy conditions, suggesting strong potential as a bone-strengthening agent. This study underscores the beneficial role of spermine in osteoporotic bone homeostasis and skeletal system development, highlighting pivotal molecular mediators. Given their efficacy and safety, human endogenous metabolites like spermine are promising candidates for new anti-osteoporotic drug development and daily bone-fortifying agents.

Weak base drug-induced endolysosome iron dyshomeostasis controls the generation of reactive oxygen species, mitochondrial depolarization, and cytotoxicity. NEUROIMMUNE PHARMACOLOGY AND THERAPEUTICS 2024; 3:33-46. [PMID: 38532786 PMCID: PMC10961484 DOI: 10.1515/nipt-2023-0021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/28/2024]
Abstract
Objectives Approximately 75 % of marketed drugs have the physicochemical property of being weak bases. Weak-base drugs with relatively high pKa values enter acidic organelles including endosomes and lysosomes (endolysosomes), reside in and de-acidify endolysosomes, and induce cytotoxicity. Divalent cations within endolysosomes, including iron, are released upon endolysosome de-acidification. Endolysosomes are "master regulators of iron homeostasis", and neurodegeneration is linked to ferrous iron (Fe2+)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation via Fenton chemistry. Because endolysosome de-acidification-induced lysosome-stress responses release endolysosome Fe2+, it was crucial to determine the mechanisms by which a functionally and structurally diverse group of weak base drugs including atropine, azithromycin, fluoxetine, metoprolol, and tamoxifen influence endolysosomes and cause cell death. Methods Using U87MG astrocytoma and SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, we conducted concentration-response relationships for 5 weak-base drugs to determine EC50 values. From these curves, we chose pharmacologically and therapeutically relevant concentrations to determine if weak-base drugs induced lysosome-stress responses by de-acidifying endolysosomes, releasing endolysosome Fe2+ in sufficient levels to increase cytosolic and mitochondria Fe2+ and ROS levels and cell death. Results Atropine (anticholinergic), azithromycin (antibiotic), fluoxetine (antidepressant), metoprolol (beta-adrenergic), and tamoxifen (anti-estrogen) at pharmacologically and therapeutically relevant concentrations (1) de-acidified endolysosomes, (2) decreased Fe2+ levels in endolysosomes, (3) increased Fe2+ and ROS levels in cytosol and mitochondria, (4) induced mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization, and (5) increased cell death; effects prevented by the endocytosed iron-chelator deferoxamine. Conclusions Weak-base pharmaceuticals induce lysosome-stress responses that may affect their safety profiles; a better understanding of weak-base drugs on Fe2+ interorganellar signaling may improve pharmacotherapeutics.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world, the first being Alzheimer's disease. Patients with PD have a loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of the basal ganglia, which controls voluntary movements, causing a motor impairment as a result of dopaminergic signaling impairment. Studies have shown that mutations in several genes, such as SNCA, PARK2, PINK1, DJ-1, ATP13A2, and LRRK2, and the exposure to neurotoxic agents can potentially increase the chances of PD development. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) plays an important role in studying the risk factors, such as genetic factors, aging, exposure to chemicals, disease progression, and drug treatments for PD. C. elegans has a conserved neurotransmission system during evolution; it produces dopamine, through the eight dopaminergic neurons; it can be used to study the effect of neurotoxins and also has strains that express human α-synuclein. Furthermore, the human PD-related genes, LRK-1, PINK-1, PDR-1, DJR-1.1, and CATP-6, are present and functional in this model. Therefore, this review focuses on highlighting and discussing the use of C. elegans an in vivo model in PD-related studies. Here, we identified that nematodes exposed to the neurotoxins, such as 6-OHDA, MPTP, paraquat, and rotenone, had a progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons, dopamine deficits, and decreased survival rate. Several studies have reported that expression of human LRRK2 (G2019S) caused neurodegeneration and pink-1, pdr-1, and djr-1.1 deletion caused several effects PD-related in C. elegans, including mitochondrial dysfunctions. Of note, the deletion of catp-6 in nematodes caused behavioral dysfunction, mitochondrial damage, and reduced survival. In addition, nematodes expressing α-synuclein had neurodegeneration and dopamine-dependent deficits. Therefore, C. elegans can be considered an accurate animal model of PD that can be used to elucidate to assess the underlying mechanisms implicated in PD to find novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
ATP13A2 is a lysosomal protein involved in polyamine transport with loss of function mutations associated with multiple neurodegenerative conditions. These include early onset Parkinson's disease, Kufor-Rakeb Syndrome, neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, hereditary spastic paraplegia, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. While ATP13A2 mutations may result in clinical heterogeneity, the basal ganglia appear to be impacted in the majority of cases. The basal ganglia is particularly vulnerable to environmental exposures such as heavy metals, pesticides, and industrial agents which are also established risk factors for many neurodegenerative conditions. Not surprisingly then, impaired function of ATP13A2 has been linked to heavy metal toxicity including manganese, iron, and zinc. This review discusses the role of ATP13A2 in basal ganglia function and dysfunction, potential common pathological mechanisms in ATP13A2-related disorders, and how gene x environment interactions may contribute to basal ganglia dysfunction.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is strongly implicated in the etiology of idiopathic and genetic Parkinson's disease (PD). However, strategies aimed at ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction, including antioxidants, antidiabetic drugs, and iron chelators, have failed in disease-modification clinical trials. In this review, we summarize the cellular determinants of mitochondrial dysfunction, including impairment of electron transport chain complex 1, increased oxidative stress, disturbed mitochondrial quality control mechanisms, and cellular bioenergetic deficiency. In addition, we outline mitochondrial pathways to neurodegeneration in the current context of PD pathogenesis, and review past and current treatment strategies in an attempt to better understand why translational efforts thus far have been unsuccessful.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by multifactorial pathogenic mechanisms. Familial PD is linked with genetic mutations in genes whose products are either associated with mitochondrial function or endo-lysosomal pathways. Of note, mitochondria are essential to sustain high energy demanding synaptic activity of neurons and alterations in mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling have been proposed as causal events for neurodegenerative process, although the mechanisms responsible for the selective loss of specific neuronal populations in the different neurodegenerative diseases is still not clear. Here, we specifically discuss the importance of a correct mitochondrial communication with the other organelles occurring at regions where their membranes become in close contact. We discuss the nature and the role of contact sites that mitochondria establish with ER, lysosomes, and peroxisomes, and how PD related proteins participate in the regulation/dysregulation of the tethering complexes. Unravelling molecular details of mitochondria tethering could contribute to identify specific therapeutic targets and develop new strategies to counteract the progression of the disease.

Abstract
Ovarian aging and disease-related decline in fertility are challenging medical and economic issues with an increasing prevalence. Polyamines are a class of polycationic alkylamines widely distributed in mammals. They are small molecules essential for cell growth and development. Polyamines alleviate ovarian aging through various biological processes, including reproductive hormone synthesis, cell metabolism, programmed cell death, etc. However, an abnormal increase in polyamine levels can lead to ovarian damage and promote the development of ovarian disease. Therefore, polyamines have long been considered potential therapeutic targets for aging and disease, but their regulatory roles in the ovary deserve further investigation. This review discusses the mechanisms by which polyamines ameliorate human ovarian aging and disease through different biological processes, such as autophagy and oxidative stress, to develop safe and effective polyamine targeted therapy strategies for ovarian aging and the diseases.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 262:115186. [PMID: 37393821 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115186] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2023] [Revised: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023]
Abstract
Rotenone, an insecticide that inhibits mitochondrial complex I and generates oxidative stress, is responsible for neurological disorders and affects the female reproductive system. However, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Melatonin, a potential free-radical scavenger, has been shown to protect the reproductive system from oxidative damage. In this study, we investigated the impact of rotenone on mouse oocyte quality and evaluated the protective effect of melatonin on oocytes exposed to rotenone. Our results showed that rotenone impaired mouse oocyte maturation and early embryo cleavage. However, melatonin prevented these negative effects by ameliorating rotenone-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and dynamic imbalance, intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis damage, ER stress, early apoptosis, meiotic spindle formation disruption, and aneuploidy in oocytes. Additionally, RNA sequencing analysis showed that rotenone exposure changed the expression of multiple genes involved in histone methylation and acetylation modifications that result in mouse meiotic defects. However, melatonin partially rescued these defects. These findings suggest that melatonin has protective effects against rotenone-induced mouse oocyte defects.

Abstract
Phospholipase D3 (PLD3) polymorphisms are linked to late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). Being a lysosomal 5'-3' exonuclease, its neuronal substrates remained unknown as well as how a defective lysosomal nucleotide catabolism connects to AD-proteinopathy. We identified mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) as a major physiological substrate and show its manifest build-up in lysosomes of PLD3-defective cells. mtDNA accretion creates a degradative (proteolytic) bottleneck that presents at the ultrastructural level as a marked abundance of multilamellar bodies, often containing mitochondrial remnants, which correlates with increased PINK1-dependent mitophagy. Lysosomal leakage of mtDNA to the cytosol activates cGAS-STING signaling that upregulates autophagy and induces amyloid precursor C-terminal fragment (APP-CTF) and cholesterol accumulation. STING inhibition largely normalizes APP-CTF levels, whereas an APP knockout in PLD3-deficient backgrounds lowers STING activation and normalizes cholesterol biosynthesis. Collectively, we demonstrate molecular cross-talks through feedforward loops between lysosomal nucleotide turnover, cGAS-STING and APP metabolism that, when dysregulated, result in neuronal endolysosomal demise as observed in LOAD.

Abstract
Introduction: The high prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases in our population and the lack of effective treatments encourage the search for new therapeutic targets for these pathologies. We have recently described that submaximal inhibition of the Sarco-Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA), the main responsible for ER calcium storage, is able to increase lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans worms by mechanisms involving mitochondrial metabolism and nutrient-sensitive pathways. Methods: We have studied here the effects of submaximal SERCA inhibition in a chemical model of Parkinson's disease (PD) induced in C. elegans worms by treatment with the mitochondrial complex I inhibitor rotenone. For specific SERCA inhibition, we treated worms with RNAi against sca-1, the sole orthologue of SERCA in C. elegans. Results and Discussion: Our results show that rotenone produces alterations in worms that include decreased lifespan, smaller size, reduced fertility, decreased motility, defecation and pumping rate, increased mitochondrial ROS production, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential and oxygen consumption rate, altered mitochondrial structure, and altered ethanol preference in behavioral studies. Most of these alterations were either fully or partially reversed in worms treated with sca-1 RNAi, suggesting that SERCA inhibition could be a novel pharmacological target in the prevention or treatment of neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Mutations in the human ATP13A2 (PARK9), a lysosomal ATPase, cause Kufor-Rakeb Syndrome, an early-onset form of Parkinson's disease (PD). Here, we demonstrate that ATP13A2 functions as a lysosomal H+,K+-ATPase. The K+-dependent ATPase activity and the lysosomal K+-transport activity of ATP13A2 are inhibited by an inhibitor of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, thapsigargin, and K+-competitive inhibitors of gastric H+,K+-ATPase, such as vonoprazan and SCH28080. Interestingly, these H+,K+-ATPase inhibitors cause lysosomal alkalinization and α-synuclein accumulation, which are pathological hallmarks of PD. Furthermore, PD-associated mutants of ATP13A2 show abnormal expression and function. Our results suggest that the H+/K+-transporting function of ATP13A2 contributes to acidification and α-synuclein degradation in lysosomes.

Abstract
P5A- and P5B- ATPases, or collectively P5-ATPases, are eukaryotic-specific ATP-dependent transporters that are important for the function of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and endo-/lysosomes. However, their substrate specificities had remained enigmatic for many years. Recent cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and biochemical studies of P5-ATPases have revealed their substrate specificities and transport mechanisms, which were found to be markedly different from other members of the P-type ATPase superfamily. The P5A-ATPase extracts mistargeted or mis-inserted transmembrane helices from the ER membrane for protein quality control, while the P5B-ATPases mediate export of polyamines from late endo-/lysosomes into the cytosol. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms of their substrate recognition and transport based on the cryo-EM structures of the yeast and human P5-ATPases. We highlight how structural diversification of the transmembrane domain has enabled the P5-ATPase subfamily to adapt for transport of atypical substrates.

Abstract
Objectives Opioids including morphine and DAMGO activate mu-opioid receptors (MOR), increase intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and induce cell death. Ferrous iron (Fe2+) through Fenton-like chemistry increases ROS levels and endolysosomes are "master regulators of iron metabolism" and contain readily-releasable Fe2+ stores. However, mechanisms underlying opioid-induced changes in endolysosome iron homeostasis and downstream-signaling events remain unclear. Methods We used SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, flow cytometry, and confocal microscopy to measure Fe2+ and ROS levels and cell death. Results Morphine and DAMGO de-acidified endolysosomes, decreased endolysosome Fe2+ levels, increased cytosol and mitochondria Fe2+ and ROS levels, depolarized mitochondrial membrane potential, and induced cell death; effects blocked by the nonselective MOR antagonist naloxone and the selective MOR antagonist β-funaltrexamine (β-FNA). Deferoxamine, an endolysosome-iron chelator, inhibited opioid agonist-induced increases in cytosolic and mitochondrial Fe2+ and ROS. Opioid-induced efflux of endolysosome Fe2+ and subsequent Fe2+ accumulation in mitochondria were blocked by the endolysosome-resident two-pore channel inhibitor NED-19 and the mitochondrial permeability transition pore inhibitor TRO. Conclusions Opioid agonist-induced increases in cytosolic and mitochondrial Fe2+ and ROS as well as cell death appear downstream of endolysosome de-acidification and Fe2+ efflux from the endolysosome iron pool that is sufficient to affect other organelles.

Novel Green Fluorescent Polyamines to Analyze ATP13A2 and ATP13A3 Activity in the Mammalian Polyamine Transport System. Biomolecules 2023; 13:biom13020337.

Abstract
Cells acquire polyamines putrescine (PUT), spermidine (SPD) and spermine (SPM) via the complementary actions of polyamine uptake and synthesis pathways. The endosomal P5B-type ATPases ATP13A2 and ATP13A3 emerge as major determinants of mammalian polyamine uptake. Our biochemical evidence shows that fluorescently labeled polyamines are genuine substrates of ATP13A2. They can be used to measure polyamine uptake in ATP13A2- and ATP13A3-dependent cell models resembling radiolabeled polyamine uptake. We further report that ATP13A3 enables faster and stronger cellular polyamine uptake than does ATP13A2. We also compared the uptake of new green fluorescent PUT, SPD and SPM analogs using different coupling strategies (amide, triazole or isothiocyanate) and fluorophores (symmetrical BODIPY, BODIPY-FL and FITC). ATP13A2 promotes the uptake of various SPD and SPM analogs, whereas ATP13A3 mainly stimulates the uptake of PUT and SPD conjugates. However, the polyamine linker and coupling position on the fluorophore impacts the transport capacity, whereas replacing the fluorophore affects polyamine selectivity. The highest uptake in ATP13A2 or ATP13A3 cells is observed with BODIPY-FL-amide conjugated to SPD, whereas BODIPY-PUT analogs are specifically taken up via ATP13A3. We found that P5B-type ATPase isoforms transport fluorescently labeled polyamine analogs with a distinct structure-activity relationship (SAR), suggesting that isoform-specific polyamine probes can be designed.

Abstract
Lysosomes play fundamental roles in material digestion, cellular clearance, recycling, exocytosis, wound repair, Ca2+ signaling, nutrient signaling, and gene expression regulation. The organelle also serves as a hub for important signaling networks involving the mTOR and AKT kinases. Electrophysiological recording and molecular and structural studies in the past decade have uncovered several unique lysosomal ion channels and transporters, including TPCs, TMEM175, TRPMLs, CLN7, and CLC-7. They underlie the organelle's permeability to major ions, including K+, Na+, H+, Ca2+, and Cl-. The channels are regulated by numerous cellular factors, ranging from H+ in the lumen and voltage across the lysosomal membrane to ATP in the cytosol to growth factors outside the cell. Genetic variations in the channel/transporter genes are associated with diseases that include lysosomal storage diseases and neurodegenerative diseases. Recent studies with human genetics and channel activators suggest that lysosomal channels may be attractive targets for the development of therapeutics for the prevention of and intervention in human diseases.

Abstract
Lysosomes are specialized organelles with an acidic pH that act as recycling hubs for intracellular and extracellular components. They harbour numerous different hydrolytic enzymes to degrade substrates like proteins, peptides, and glycolipids. Reduced catalytic activity of lysosomal enzymes can cause the accumulation of these substrates and loss of lysosomal integrity, resulting in lysosomal dysfunction and lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs). Post-mitotic cells, such as neurons, seem to be highly sensitive to damages induced by lysosomal dysfunction, thus LSDs often manifest with neurological symptoms. Interestingly, some LSDs and Parkinson's disease (PD) share common cellular pathomechanisms, suggesting convergence of aetiology of the two disease types. This is further underlined by genetic associations of several lysosomal genes involved in LSDs with PD. The increasing number of lysosome-associated genetic risk factors for PD makes it necessary to understand functions and interactions of lysosomal proteins/enzymes both in health and disease, thereby holding the potential to identify new therapeutic targets. In this review, we highlight genetic and mechanistic interactions between the complex lysosomal network, LSDs and PD, and elaborate on methodical challenges in lysosomal research.

Abstract
Quality control of mitochondria is essential for their homeostasis and function. Light chain 3 (LC3) associated autophagosomes-mediated mitophagy represents a canonical mitochondrial quality control pathway. Alternative quality control processes, such as mitochondrial-derived vesicles (MDVs), have been discovered, but the intact mitochondrial quality control remains unknown. We recently discovered a novel mitolysosome exocytosis mechanism for mitochondrial quality control in flunarizine (FNZ)-induced mitochondria clearance, where autophagosomes are not required, but rather mitochondria are engulfed directly by lysosomes, mediating mitochondrial secretion. As FNZ results in parkinsonism, we propose that excessive mitolysosome exocytosis is the cause.

Abstract
Polyamines (PAs) are physiologically relevant molecules that are ubiquitous in all organisms. The vitality of PAs to the healthy functioning of a cell is due to their polycationic nature causing them to interact with a vast plethora of cellular players and partake in numerous cellular pathways. Naturally, the homeostasis of such essential molecules is tightly regulated in a strictly controlled interplay between intracellular synthesis and degradation, uptake from and secretion to the extracellular compartment, as well as intracellular trafficking. Not surprisingly, dysregulated PA homeostasis and signaling are implicated in multiple disorders, ranging from cancer to neurodegeneration; leading many to propose rectifying the PA balance as a potential therapeutic strategy. Despite being well characterized in bacteria, fungi and plants, the molecular identity and properties of the PA transporters in animals are poorly understood. This review brings together the current knowledge of the cellular function of the mammalian PA transport system (PTS). We will focus on the role of P5B-ATPases ATP13A2-5 which are PA transporters in the endosomal system that have emerged as key players in cellular PA uptake and organelle homeostasis. We will discuss recent breakthroughs on their biochemical and structural properties as well as their implications for disease and therapy.

Abstract
Mutations in ATP13A2 cause Kufor-Rakeb Syndrome (KRS), a juvenile form of Parkinson's Disease (PD). The gene product belongs to a diverse family of ion pumps and mediates polyamine influx from lysosomal lumen. While the biochemical and structural studies highlight its unique mechanics, how PD pathology is linked to ATP13A2 function remains unclear. Here we report that localization of overexpressed TOM20, a mitochondrial outer-membrane protein, is significantly altered upon ATP13A2 expression to partially merge with lysosome. Using Halo-fused version of ATP13A2, ATP13A2 was identified in lysosome and autophagosome. Upon ATP13A2 co-expression, overexpressed TOM20 was found not only in mitochondria but also within ATP13A2-containing autolysosome. This modification of TOM20 localization was inhibited by adding 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) and not accompanied with mitophagy induction. We suggest that ATP13A2 may participate in the control of overexpressed proteins targeted to mitochondrial outer-membrane.

Abstract
Mitophagy impairment and oxidative stress are cardinal pathological hallmarks in Parkinson's disease (PD), a common age-related neurodegenerative condition. The specific interactions between mitophagy and reactive oxygen species (ROS) have attracted considerable attention even though their exact interplay in PD has not been fully elucidated. We highlight the interactions between ROS and mitophagy, with a focus on the signalling pathways downstream to ROS that triggers mitophagy and draw attention to potential therapeutic compounds that target these pathways in both experimental and clinical models. Identifying a combination of ROS inhibitors and mitophagy activators to provide a physiologic balance in this complex signalling pathways may lead to a more optimal outcome. Deciphering the exact temporal relationship between mitophagy and oxidative stress and their triggers early in the course of neurodegeneration can unravel mechanistic clues that potentially lead to the development of compounds for clinical drug trials focusing on prodromic PD or at-risk individuals.

Abstract
CONTEXT Low ovarian putrescine levels and decreased peak values following luteinising hormone peaks are related to poor oocyte quantity and quality in ageing women. AIMS To investigate the effects of putrescine supplementation in in vitro maturation (IVM) medium on oocyte quality and epigenetic modification. METHODS Germinal vesicle oocytes retrieved from the ovaries of 8-week-old and 9-month-old mice were divided into four groups (the young, young+difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), ageing and ageing+putrescine groups) and cultured in IVM medium with or without 1mM putrescine or DFMO for 16h. The first polar body extrusion (PBE), cleavage and embryonic development were evaluated. Spindles, chromosomes, mitochondria and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured. The expression levels of SIRT1, H3K9ac, H3K9me2, H3K9me3, and 5mC levels were evaluated. Sirt1 and imprinted genes were detected. RESULTS The PBE was higher in the ageing+putrescine group than in the ageing group. Putrescine increased the total and inner cell mass cell numbers of blastocysts in ageing oocytes. Putrescine decreased aberrant spindles and chromosome aneuploidy, increased the mitochondrial membrane potential and decreased ROS levels. Putrescine increased SIRT1 expression and attenuated the upregulation of H3K9ac levels in ageing oocytes. Putrescine did not affect 5mC, H3K9me2 or H3K9me3 levels or imprinted gene expression. CONCLUSIONS Putrescine supplementation during IVM improved the maturation and quality of ageing oocytes and promoted embryonic development by decreasing ROS generation, maintaining mitochondrial and spindle function and correcting aberrant epigenetic modification. IMPLICATIONS Putrescine shows application potential for human-assisted reproduction, especially for IVM of oocytes from ageing women.

Abstract
The natural mammalian polyamines putrescine, spermidine and spermine are essential for both normal and neoplastic cell function and replication. Dysregulation of metabolism of polyamines and their requirements is common in many cancers. Both clinical and experimental depletion of polyamines have demonstrated their metabolism to be a rational target for therapy; however, the mechanisms through which polyamines can establish a tumour-permissive microenvironment are only now emerging. Recent data indicate that polyamines can play a major role in regulating the antitumour immune response, thus likely contributing to the existence of immunologically 'cold' tumours that do not respond to immune checkpoint blockade. Additionally, the interplay between the microbiota and associated tissues creates a tumour microenvironment in which polyamine metabolism, content and function can all be dramatically altered on the basis of microbiota composition, dietary polyamine availability and tissue response to its surrounding microenvironment. The goal of this Perspective is to introduce the reader to the many ways in which polyamines, polyamine metabolism, the microbiota and the diet interconnect to establish a tumour microenvironment that facilitates the initiation and progression of cancer. It also details ways in which polyamine metabolism and function can be successfully targeted for therapeutic benefit, including specifically enhancing the antitumour immune response.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the presence of Lewy bodies caused by α-synuclein. The imbalance of zinc homeostasis is a major cause of PD, promoting α-synuclein accumulation. ATP13A2, a transporter found in acidic vesicles, plays an important role in Zn2+ homeostasis and is highly expressed in Lewy bodies in PD-surviving neurons. ATP13A2 is involved in the transport of zinc ions in lysosomes and exosomes and inhibits the aggregation of α-synuclein. However, the potential mechanism underlying the regulation of zinc homeostasis and α-synuclein accumulation by ATP13A2 remains unexplored. We used α-synuclein-GFP transgenic mice and HEK293 α-synuclein-DsRed cell line as models. The spatial exploration behavior of mice was significantly reduced, and phosphorylation levels of α-synuclein increased upon high Zn2+ treatment. High Zn2+ also inhibited the autophagy pathway by reducing LAMP2a levels and changing the expression of LC3 and P62, by reducing mitochondrial membrane potential and increasing the expression of cytochrom C, and by activating the ERK/P38 apoptosis signaling pathway, ultimately leading to increased caspase 3 levels. These protein changes were reversed after ATP13A2 overexpression, whereas ATP13A2 knockout exacerbated α-synuclein phosphorylation levels. These results suggest that ATP13A2 may have a protective effect on Zn2+-induced abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein, lysosomal dysfunction, and apoptosis.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. PARK9 (also known as ATP13A2) is recognized as one of the key genes that cause PD, and a mutation in this gene was first discovered in a rare case of PD in an adolescent. Lewy bodies (LBs) formed by abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein, which is encoded by the SNCA gene, are one of the pathological diagnostic criteria for PD. LBs are also recognized as one of the most important features of PD pathogenesis. In this article, we first summarize the types of mutations in the ATP13A2 gene and their effects on ATP13A2 mRNA and protein structure; then, we discuss lysosomal autophagy inhibition and the molecular mechanism of abnormal α-synuclein accumulation caused by decreased levels and dysfunction of the ATP13A2 protein in lysosomes. Finally, this article provides a new direction for future research on the pathogenesis and therapeutic targets for ATP13A2 gene-related PD from the perspective of ATP13A2 gene mutations and abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein.

Abstract
Aims: Cancer patients treated with anthracyclines are susceptible to atrial fibrillation (AF), while the mechanisms remain unclear. Due to sudden and unpredictable features, prediction of anthracycline-induced AF at early phase is difficult. Clinically, we tested whether anthracycline-induced early atrial remodeling in patients could be detected by echocardiography. Experimentally, we investigated the mechanisms of doxorubicin-induced atrial remodeling and AF in mice, and the protective effects of dexrazoxane and antioxidants. Methods and Results: Postsurgery breast cancer patients with an anthracycline-containing or anthracycline exclusion regimen were recruited for echocardiography before chemotherapy, and 3 and 6 months after chemotherapy. Mice were injected with doxorubicin or vehicle (5 mg/kg/week, 4 weeks), and left atrial diameter, electrical transmission, and AF inducibility were measured. Meanwhile, the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS), activity of antioxidant enzymes, cardiomyocyte size, vacuolization, inflammation, and fibrosis were also measured in mouse atria. The therapeutic effects of dexrazoxane and antioxidants on doxorubicin-induced changes in the aforementioned parameters were also determined. While ventricular parameters and functions were unchanged in cancer patients receiving anthracyclines before and after chemotherapy, left atrial reservoir and conduit function were decreased at 3 months postchemotherapy versus prechemotherapy. Doxorubicin-induced susceptibility to AF occurred in mice before onset of ventricular dysfunction. Doxorubicin-induced AF was via inducing structural remodeling (cardiomyocyte death, hypotrophy, and vacuolization) and electrical remodeling (reduction and redistribution of connexin 43) in atria, which was effectively prevented by dexrazoxane or antioxidants through inhibiting ROS generation or enhancing ROS elimination. Innovation and Conclusion: AF inducibility was induced after doxorubicin injection, which can be inhibited by repressing the ROS level. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 37, 19-39. The Clinical Trial Registration number is PJ-KS-KY-2019-73.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are generally considered proteinopathies but whereas this may initiate disease in familial cases, onset in sporadic diseases may originate from a gradually disrupted organellar homeostasis. Herein, endolysosomal abnormalities, mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and altered lipid metabolism are commonly observed in early preclinical stages of major NDs, including Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among the multitude of underlying defective molecular mechanisms that have been suggested in the past decades, dysregulation of inter-organellar communication through the so-called membrane contact sites (MCSs) is becoming increasingly apparent. Although MCSs exist between almost every other type of subcellular organelle, to date, most focus has been put on defective communication between the ER and mitochondria in NDs, given these compartments are critical in neuronal survival. Contributions of other MCSs, notably those with endolysosomes and lipid droplets are emerging, supported as well by genetic studies, identifying genes functionally involved in lysosomal homeostasis. In this review, we summarize the molecular identity of the organelle interactome in yeast and mammalian cells, and critically evaluate the evidence supporting the contribution of disturbed MCSs to the general disrupted inter-organellar homeostasis in NDs, taking PD and AD as major examples.

Abstract
As a late endosomal/lysosomal transport protein of the P5-type, ATP13A2 is capable of removing the abnormal accumulation of α-synuclein, which maintains the homeostasis of metal ions and polyamines in the central nervous system. Furthermore, ATP13A2 regulates the normal function of several organelles such as lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, and maintains the normal physiological activity of neural cells. Especially, ATP13A2 protects dopaminergic (DA) neurons against environmental or genetically induced Parkinson's disease (PD). As we all know, PD is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the loss of DA neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. An increasing number of studies have reported that the loss-of-function of ATP13A2 affects normal physiological processes of various organelles, leading to abnormalities and the death of DA neurons. Previous studies in our laboratory have also shown that ATP13A2 deletion intensifies the neuroinflammatory response induced by astrocytes, thus inducing DA neuronal injury. In addition to elucidating the normal structure and function of ATP13A2, this review summarized the pathological mechanisms of ATP13A2 mutations leading to PD in existing literature studies, deepening the understanding of ATP13A2 in the pathological process of PD and other related neurodegenerative diseases. This review provides inspiration for investigators to explore the essential regulatory role of ATP13A2 in PD in the future.

Abstract
Melanocytes are dendritic, pigment-producing cells located in the skin and are responsible for its protection against the deleterious effects of solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR), which include DNA damage and elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS). They do so by synthesizing photoprotective melanin pigments and distributing them to adjacent skin cells (e.g., keratinocytes). However, melanocytes encounter a large burden of oxidative stress during this process, due to both exogenous and endogenous sources. Therefore, melanocytes employ numerous antioxidant defenses to protect themselves; these are largely regulated by the master stress response transcription factor, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2). Key effector transcriptional targets of NRF2 include the components of the glutathione and thioredoxin antioxidant systems. Despite these defenses, melanocyte DNA often is subject to mutations that result in the dysregulation of the proliferative mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and the cell cycle. Following tumor initiation, endogenous antioxidant systems are co-opted, a consequence of elevated oxidative stress caused by metabolic reprogramming, to establish an altered redox homeostasis. This altered redox homeostasis contributes to tumor progression and metastasis, while also complicating the application of exogenous antioxidant treatments. Further understanding of melanocyte redox homeostasis, in the presence or absence of disease, would contribute to the development of novel therapies to aid in the prevention and treatment of melanomas and other skin diseases.

Abstract
Autophagy is an evolutionally conserved process by which cytoplasmic contents including protein aggregates and damaged organelles such as mitochondria and lysosomes, are sequestered by double-membrane structure, autophagosomes, and delivered to the lysosomes for degradation. Recently, considerable efforts have been made to reveal the role of autophagy in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease. Impairment of autophagy aggravates the accumulation of misfolded protein and damaged organelles in neurons, while sufficient autophagic activity reduces such accumulation in nervous system and ameliorates the pathology. Here we summarize recent progress regarding the role of autophagy in several neurodegenerative diseases and the potential autophagy-associated therapies for them.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been defined as a reduced efficiency of mitochondria to produce ATP given by a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, alterations in the electron transport chain (ETC) function, with increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and decrease in oxygen consumption. During the last decades, mitochondrial dysfunction has been the focus of many researchers as a convergent point for the pathophysiology of several diseases. Numerous investigations have demonstrated that mitochondrial dysfunction is detrimental to cells, tissues and organisms, nevertheless, dysfunctional mitochondria can signal in a particular way in response to stress, a characteristic that may be useful to search for new therapeutic strategies with a common feature. The aim of this review addresses mitochondrial dysfunction and stress signaling as a promising target for future drug development.

Abstract
Abstract—As the population ages, age-related cognitive impairments are becoming an increasingly pressing problem. Currently, the role of polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine) in the pathogenesis of cognitive impairments of various origin is actively discussed. It was shown that the content of polyamines in the brain tissue decreases with age. Exogenous administration of polyamines makes it possible to avoid cognitive impairment and/or influence the pathogenetic processes associated with disease progression. There are 3 known ways that polyamines can enter the human body: food, synthesis by intestinal bacteria, and biosynthesis in the body. Currently, one of the most promising approaches to the prevention of cognitive impairment is the use of foods with a high content of polyamines, as well as the use of various probiotics that affect intestinal bacteria that synthesize polyamines. Since 2018, in a number of European countries projects have been launched aimed at evaluation of the impact of a diet high in polyamines on cognitive processes. The review, based on analysis of modern scientific literature and the authors' own data, presents material on the effect of polyamines on cognitive processes and the role of polyamines in the regulation of neurotransmitter processes, and discusses the role of polyamines in cognitive disorders in mental and neurological diseases.

Abstract
Mutations in ATP13A2, also known as PARK9, cause a rare monogenic form of juvenile-onset Parkinson's disease named Kufor-Rakeb syndrome and other neurodegenerative diseases. ATP13A2 encodes a neuroprotective P5B P-type ATPase highly enriched in the brain that mediates selective import of spermine ions from lysosomes into the cytosol via an unknown mechanism. Here we present three structures of human ATP13A2 bound to an ATP analog or to spermine in the presence of phosphomimetics determined by cryoelectron microscopy. ATP13A2 autophosphorylation opens a lysosome luminal gate to reveal a narrow lumen access channel that holds a spermine ion in its entrance. ATP13A2's architecture suggests physical principles underlying selective polyamine transport and anticipates a "pump-channel" intermediate that could function as a counter-cation conduit to facilitate lysosome acidification. Our findings establish a firm foundation to understand ATP13A2 mutations associated with disease and bring us closer to realizing ATP13A2's potential in neuroprotective therapy.

Abstract
Polyamines are small, organic polycations that are ubiquitous and essential to all forms of life. Currently, how polyamines are transported across membranes is not understood. Recent studies have suggested that ATP13A2 and its close homologs, collectively known as P5B-ATPases, are polyamine transporters at endo-/lysosomes. Loss-of-function mutations of ATP13A2 in humans cause hereditary early-onset Parkinson's disease. To understand the polyamine transport mechanism of ATP13A2, we determined high-resolution cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of human ATP13A2 in five distinct conformational intermediates, which together, represent a near-complete transport cycle of ATP13A2. The structural basis of the polyamine specificity was revealed by an endogenous polyamine molecule bound to a narrow, elongated cavity within the transmembrane domain. The structures show an atypical transport path for a water-soluble substrate, in which polyamines may exit within the cytosolic leaflet of the membrane. Our study provides important mechanistic insights into polyamine transport and a framework to understand the functions and mechanisms of P5B-ATPases.

Abstract
Polyamines are important polycations that play critical roles in mammalian cells. ATP13A2 belongs to the orphan P5B adenosine triphosphatases (ATPase) family and has been established as a lysosomal polyamine exporter to maintain the normal function of lysosomes and mitochondria. Previous studies have reported that several human neurodegenerative disorders are related to mutations in the ATP13A2 gene. However, the transport mechanism of ATP13A2 in the lysosome remains unclear. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of three distinct intermediates of the human ATP13A2, revealing key insights into the spermine (SPM) transport cycle in the lysosome. The transmembrane domain serves as a substrate binding site and the C-terminal domain is essential for protein stability and may play a regulatory role. These findings advance our understanding of the polyamine transport mechanism, the lipid-associated regulation, and the disease-associated mutants of ATP13A2.

Abstract
Acute cadmium (Cd) exposure is a significant risk factor for renal injury and lacks effective treatment strategies. Ferroptosis is a recently identified iron-dependent form of nonapoptotic cell death mediated by membrane damage resulting from lipid peroxidation, and it is implicated in many diseases. However, whether ferroptosis is involved in Cd-induced renal injury and, if so, how it operates. Here, we show that Cd can induce ferroptosis in kidney and renal tubular epithelial cells, as demonstrated by elevation of intracellular iron levels and lipid peroxidation, as well as impaired antioxidant production. Treatment with a ferroptosis inhibitor alleviated Cd-induced cell death. Intriguingly, we established that Cd-induced ferroptosis depended on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, by demonstrating that Cd activated the PERK-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP pathway and that inhibition of ER stress reduced ferroptosis caused by Cd. We further found that autophagy was required for Cd-induced ferroptosis because the inhibition of autophagy by chloroquine mitigated Cd-induced ferroptosis. Furthermore, we showed that iron dysregulation by ferritinophagy contributed to Cd-induced ferroptosis, by showing that the iron chelator desferrioxamine alleviated Cd-induced cell death and lipid peroxidation. In addition, ER stress is likely activated by MitoROS which trigger autophagy and ferroptosis. Collectively, our results indicate that ferroptosis is involved in Cd-induced renal toxicity and regulated by the MitoROS-ER stress-ferritinophagy axis.
