Abstract
Oxidative DNA damage-related diseases, such as incurable inflammation, malignant tumors, and age-related disorders, present significant challenges in modern medicine due to their complex molecular mechanisms and limitations in identifying effective treatment targets. Recently, 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) has emerged as a promising multifunctional therapeutic target for the treatment of these challenging diseases. In this review, we systematically summarize the multiple functions and mechanisms of OGG1, including pro-inflammatory, tumorigenic, and aging regulatory mechanisms. We also highlight the potential of OGG1 inhibitors and activators as potent therapeutic agents for the aforementioned life-limiting diseases. We conclude that OGG1 serves as a multifunctional hub; the inhibition of OGG1 may provide a novel approach for preventing and treating inflammation and cancer, and the activation of OGG1 could be a strategy for preventing age-related disorders. Furthermore, we provide an extensive overview of successful applications of OGG1 regulation in treating inflammatory, cancerous, and aging-related diseases. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and future directions of OGG1 as an emerging multifunctional therapeutic marker for the aforementioned challenging diseases. The aim of this review is to provide a robust reference for scientific researchers and clinical drug developers in the development of novel clinical targeted drugs for life-limiting diseases, especially for incurable inflammation, malignant tumors, and age-related disorders.

Apelin-13 improves pulmonary epithelial barrier function in a mouse model of LPS-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting Chk1-mediated DNA damage. Biochem Pharmacol 2024; 226:116297. [PMID: 38801925 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2024.116297] [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: 10/22/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Apelin-13, a type of active peptide, can alleviate lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI). However, the specific mechanism is unclear. Cell cycle checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) plays an important role in DNA damage. Here, we investigated the regulatory effect of Apelin on Chk1 in ALI. Chk1-knockout and -overexpression mice were used to explore the role of Chk1 in LPS-induced ALI mice treated with or without Apelin-13. In addition, A549 cells were also treated with LPS to establish a cell model. Chk1 knockdown inhibited the destruction of alveolar structure, the damage of lung epithelial barrier function, and DNA damage in the ALI mouse model. Conversely, Chk1 overexpression had the opposite effect. Furthermore, Apelin-13 reduced Chk1 expression and DNA damage to improve the impaired lung epithelial barrier function in the ALI model. However, the high expression of Chk1 attenuated the protective effect of Apelin-13 on ALI. Notably, Apelin-13 promoted Chk1 degradation through autophagy to regulate DNA damage in LPS-treated A549 cells. In summary, Apelin-13 regulates the expression of Chk1 by promoting autophagy, thereby inhibiting epithelial DNA damage and repairing epithelial barrier function.

Abstract
Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial condition affecting the ocular surface. It is characterized by loss of tear film homeostasis and accompanied by ocular symptoms that may potentially result in damage to the ocular surface and even vision loss. Unmodifiable risk factors for DED mainly include aging, hormonal changes, and lifestyle issues such as reduced sleep duration, increased screen exposure, smoking, and ethanol consumption. As its prevalence continues to rise, DED has garnered considerable attention, prompting the exploration of potential new therapeutic targets. Recent studies have found that when the production of ROS exceeds the capacity of the antioxidant defense system on the ocular surface, oxidative stress ensues, leading to cellular apoptosis and further oxidative damage. These events can exacerbate inflammation and cellular stress responses, further increasing ROS levels and promoting a vicious cycle of oxidative stress in DED. Therefore, given the central role of reactive oxygen species in the vicious cycle of inflammation in DED, strategies involving antioxidants have emerged as a novel approach for its treatment. This review aims to enhance our understanding of the intricate relationship between oxidative stress and DED, thereby providing directions to explore innovative therapeutic approaches for this complex ocular disorder.

Mol Biol Rep 2024; 51:129. [PMID: 38236324 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-023-09039-3] [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: 08/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obstructive sleep apnea is closely related to oxidative stress. 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (Tempol) can scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ameliorate oxidative damage in the body. The mechanism by which Tempol alleviates chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced lung injury has rarely been reported. This study aimed to confirm the molecular mechanism by which Tempol alleviates lung injury. METHODS The levels of miR-212-5p and Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) in injured lungs were analyzed using bioinformatics. In vitro, intermittent hypoxia (IH) treatment induced hypoxia in BEAS-2B cells and we established a model of chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) in mouse using a programmed hypoxia chamber. We used HE staining to observe the morphology of lung tissue, and the changes in lung fibers were observed by Masson staining. The levels of inflammatory factors in mouse serum were detected by ELISA, and the levels of the oxidative stress indicators GSH, MDA, SOD and ROS were detected using commercially available kits. Moreover, a real-time qPCR assay was used to detect miR-212-5p expression, and Western blotting was used to detect the levels of SIRT6, HIF-1α and apoptosis-related proteins. CCK-8 was used to detect cell proliferation. Subsequently, we used flow cytometry to detect cell apoptosis. Dual-luciferase gene reporters determine the on-target binding relationship of miR-212-5p and SIRT6. RESULTS SIRT6 was highly expressed in CIH-induced lung injury, as shown by bioinformatics analysis; however, miR-212-5p expression was decreased. Tempol promoted miR-212-5p expression, and the levels of SIRT6 and HIF-1α were inhibited. In BEAS-2B cells, Tempol also increased proliferation, inhibited apoptosis and inhibited oxidative stress in BEAS-2B cells under IH conditions. In BEAS-2B cells, these effects of Tempol were reversed after transfection with an miR-212-5p inhibitor. miR-212-5p targeted and negatively regulated the level of SIRT6 and overexpression of SIRT6 effectively reversed the enhanced influence of the miR-212-5p mimic on Tempol's antioxidant activity. Tempol effectively ameliorated lung injury in CIH mice and inhibited collagen deposition and inflammatory cell infiltration. Likewise, the therapeutic effect of Tempol could be effectively reversed by interference with the miR-212-5p inhibitor. CONCLUSION Inhibition of the SIRT6-HIF-1α signaling pathway could promote the effect of Tempol by upregulating the level of miR-212-5p, thereby alleviating the occurrence of lung injury and providing a new underlying target for the treatment of lung injury.

Abstract
One of abundant DNA lesions induced by reactive oxygen species is 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), which compromises genetic instability. 8-oxoG is recognized by the DNA repair protein 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) that not only participates in base excision repair but also involves in transcriptional regulation.OGG1 has an important role inIdiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) processing and targeting fibroblasts is a major strategy for the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis, but whether OGG1 activate fibroblast is not clear. In this study, we show that OGG1 expression level is increased at the fibroblast activation stage in mouse lungs induced by bleomycin (BLM) treatment. OGG1 promoted the expression level of fibroblast activation markers (CTGF, fibronectin, and collagen 1) in a pro-fibrotic gene transcriptional regulation pathway via interacting with Snail1, which dependent on 8-oxoG recognition. Global inhibition of OGG1 at the middle stage of lung fibrosis also relieved BLM-induced lung fibrosis in mice. Our results suggest that OGG1 is a target for inhibiting fibroblast activation and a potential therapeutic target for IPF.

Abstract
Cerebellar ataxia is often the first and irreversible outcome in the disease of ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T), as a consequence of selective cerebellar Purkinje neuronal degeneration. A-T is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from the loss-of-function mutations of the ataxia-telangiectasia-mutated ATM gene. Over years of research, it now becomes clear that functional ATM-a serine/threonine kinase protein product of the ATM gene-plays critical roles in regulating both cellular DNA damage response and central carbon metabolic network in multiple subcellular locations. The key question arises is how cerebellar Purkinje neurons become selectively vulnerable when all other cell types in the brain are suffering from the very same defects in ATM function. This review intended to comprehensively elaborate the unexpected linkages between these two seemingly independent cellular functions and the regulatory roles of ATM involved, their integrated impacts on both physical and functional properties, hence the introduction of selective vulnerability to Purkinje neurons in the disease will be addressed.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that mitochondria play crucial roles in immunity. However, the role of the mitochondrial Krebs cycle in immunity remains largely unknown, in particular at the organism level. Here we show that mitochondrial aconitase, ACO-2, a Krebs cycle enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of citrate to isocitrate, inhibits immunity against pathogenic bacteria in C. elegans. We find that the genetic inhibition of aco-2 decreases the level of oxaloacetate. This increases the mitochondrial unfolded protein response, subsequently upregulating the transcription factor ATFS-1, which contributes to enhanced immunity against pathogenic bacteria. We show that the genetic inhibition of mammalian ACO2 increases immunity against pathogenic bacteria by modulating the mitochondrial unfolded protein response and oxaloacetate levels in cultured cells. Because mitochondrial aconitase is highly conserved across phyla, a therapeutic strategy targeting ACO2 may eventually help properly control immunity in humans.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is an important contributor to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a form of chronic lung disease that is the most common morbidity in very preterm infants. Mitochondrial functional differences due to inherited and acquired mutations influence the pathogenesis of disorders in which oxidative stress plays a critical role. We previously showed using mitochondrial-nuclear exchange (MNX) mice that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variations modulate hyperoxia-induced lung injury severity in a model of BPD. In this study, we studied the effects of mtDNA variations on mitochondrial function including mitophagy in alveolar epithelial cells (AT2) from MNX mice. We also investigated oxidant and inflammatory stress as well as transcriptomic profiles in lung tissue in mice and expression of proteins such as PINK1, Parkin and SIRT3 in infants with BPD. Our results indicate that AT2 from mice with C57 mtDNA had decreased mitochondrial bioenergetic function and inner membrane potential, increased mitochondrial membrane permeability and were exposed to higher levels of oxidant stress during hyperoxia compared to AT2 from mice with C3H mtDNA. Lungs from hyperoxia-exposed mice with C57 mtDNA also had higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines compared to lungs from mice with C3H mtDNA. We also noted changes in KEGG pathways related to inflammation, PPAR and glutamatergic signaling, and mitophagy in mice with certain mito-nuclear combinations but not others. Mitophagy was decreased by hyperoxia in all mice strains, but to a greater degree in AT2 and neonatal mice lung fibroblasts from hyperoxia-exposed mice with C57 mtDNA compared to C3H mtDNA. Finally, mtDNA haplogroups vary with ethnicity, and Black infants with BPD had lower levels of PINK1, Parkin and SIRT3 expression in HUVEC at birth and tracheal aspirates at 28 days of life when compared to White infants with BPD. These results indicate that predisposition to neonatal lung injury may be modulated by variations in mtDNA and mito-nuclear interactions need to be investigated to discover novel pathogenic mechanisms for BPD.

Abstract
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is an important pathogen that causes a highly contagious and lethal disease in swine, for which neither a vaccine nor treatment is available. The DNA repair enzyme 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1), which excises the oxidative base lesion 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG), has been linked to the pathogenesis of different diseases associated with viral infections. However, the role of OGG1-base excision repair (BER) in ASFV infection has been poorly investigated. Our study aimed to characterize the alteration of host reactive oxygen species (ROS) and OGG1 and to analyse the role of OGG1 in ASFV infection. We found that ASFV infection induced high levels and dynamic changes in ROS and 8-oxoG and consistently increased the expression of OGG1. Viral yield, transcription level, and protein synthesis were reduced in ASFV-infected primary alveolar macrophages (PAMs) treated by TH5487 or SU0268 inhibiting OGG1. The expression of BER pathway associated proteins of ASFV was also suppressed in OGG1-inhibited PAMs. Furthermore, OGG1 was found to negatively regulate interferon β (IFN-β) production during ASFV infection and IFN-β could be activated by OGG1 inhibition with TH5487 and SU0268, which blocked OGG1 binding to 8-oxoG. Additionally, the interaction of OGG1 with viral MGF360-14-L protein could disturb IFN-β production to further affect ASFV replication. These results suggest that OGG1 plays the crucial role in successful viral infection and OGG1 inhibitors SU0268 or TH5487 could be used as antiviral agents for ASFV infection.

Abstract
8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) is a repair protein for 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) in eukaryotic atopic DNA. Through the initial base excision repair (BER) pathway, 8-oxoG is recognized and excised, and subsequently, other proteins are recruited to complete the repair. OGG1 is primarily located in the cytoplasm and can enter the nucleus and mitochondria to repair damaged DNA or to exert epigenetic regulation of gene transcription. OGG1 is involved in a wide range of physiological processes, such as DNA repair, oxidative stress, inflammation, fibrosis, and autophagy. In recent years, studies have found that OGG1 plays an important role in the progression of kidney diseases through repairing DNA, inducing inflammation, regulating autophagy and other transcriptional regulation, and governing protein interactions and functions during disease and injury. In particular, the epigenetic effects of OGG1 in kidney disease have gradually attracted widespread attention. This study reviews the structure and biological functions of OGG1 and the regulatory mechanism of OGG1 in kidney disease. In addition, the possibility of OGG1 as a potential therapeutic target in kidney disease is discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic disorder increases the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). NRs (nuclear receptors) have been increasingly recognized as important regulators of cell metabolism. However, the role of NRs in AAA development remains largely unknown. METHODS We analyzed the expression profile of the NR superfamily in AAA tissues and identified NR1D1 (NR subfamily 1 group D member 1) as the most highly upregulated NR in AAA tissues. To examine the role of NR1D1 in AAA formation, we used vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC)-specific, endothelial cell-specific, and myeloid cell-specific conditional Nr1d1 knockout mice in both AngII (angiotensin II)- and CaPO4-induced AAA models. RESULTS Nr1d1 gene expression exhibited the highest fold change among all 49 NRs in AAA tissues, and NR1D1 protein was upregulated in both human and murine VSMCs from AAA tissues. The knockout of Nr1d1 in VSMCs but not endothelial cells and myeloid cells inhibited AAA formation in both AngII- and CaPO4-induced AAA models. Mechanistic studies identified ACO2 (aconitase-2), a key enzyme of the mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid cycle, as a direct target trans-repressed by NR1D1 that mediated the regulatory effects of NR1D1 on mitochondrial metabolism. NR1D1 deficiency restored the ACO2 dysregulation and mitochondrial dysfunction at the early stage of AngII infusion before AAA formation. Supplementation with αKG (α-ketoglutarate, a downstream metabolite of ACO2) was beneficial in preventing and treating AAA in mice in a manner that required NR1D1 in VSMCs. CONCLUSIONS Our data define a previously unrecognized role of nuclear receptor NR1D1 in AAA pathogenesis and an undescribed NR1D1-ACO2 axis involved in regulating mitochondrial metabolism in VSMCs. It is important that our findings suggest αKG supplementation as an effective therapeutic approach for AAA treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND DNA damage in airway epithelia under exogenous disruptors can trigger various pulmonary diseases. Integrin beta 4 (ITGB4) is a structural adhesion molecule, which is indicated to regulate the process of DNA damage in airway epithelia for its unique long cytoplasmic domain subunit. METHODS The expression level of ITGB4 and the degree of DNA damage were observed in the house dust mite (HDM)-stressed model and ozone-challenged model, respectively. Besides, ITGB4 conditional knockout mice and ITGB4-deficient airway epithelial cells were constructed to observe the influence of ITGB4 deficiency on DNA damage. Furthermore, the influence of ITGB4 deficiency on HDAC1 expression in airway epithelia was determined under stress stimulation. Finally, corresponding intervention strategies were carried out to verify the involvement of the ITGB4-mediated HDAC1 pathway in DNA damage of airway epithelial cells. RESULTS HDM stress and ozone challenge reduced the expression of ITGB4, which is accompanied by the increased expression of 8-oxoG and γ-H2AX both in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, ITGB4 deficiency in airway epithelia aggravates the degree of DNA damage under HDM stimulation and ozone stress, respectively. Furthermore, ITGB4 deficiency downregulated the expression of HDAC1 during DNA damage, and restoring HDAC1 can reverse the enhanced DNA damage in airway epithelial cells after exogenous stress. CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed the involvement of ITGB4 in the regulation of DNA damage through mediating HDAC1 in airway epithelial cells under exogenous stress. These results supply some useful insights into the mechanism of DNA damage in airway epithelial cells, which would provide possible targets for early prediction and intervention of pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
In clinical settings, oxygen therapy is administered to preterm neonates and to adults with acute and chronic conditions such as COVID-19, pulmonary fibrosis, sepsis, cardiac arrest, carbon monoxide poisoning, and acute heart failure. In non-clinical settings, divers and astronauts may also receive supplemental oxygen. In addition, under current standard cell culture practices, cells are maintained in atmospheric oxygen, which is several times higher than what most cells experience in vivo. In all the above scenarios, the elevated oxygen levels (hyperoxia) can lead to increased production of reactive oxygen species from mitochondria, NADPH oxidases, and other sources. This can cause cell dysfunction or death. Acute hyperoxia injury impairs various cellular functions, manifesting ultimately as physiological deficits. Chronic hyperoxia, particularly in the neonate, can disrupt development, leading to permanent deficiencies. In this review, we discuss the cellular activities and pathways affected by hyperoxia, as well as strategies that have been developed to ameliorate injury.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) involves a complex interplay of cell types and signaling pathways. Recurrent alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) injury may occur in the context of predisposing factors (e.g., genetic, environmental, epigenetic, immunologic, and gerontologic), leading to metabolic dysfunction, senescence, aberrant epithelial cell activation, and dysregulated epithelial repair. The dysregulated epithelial cell interacts with mesenchymal, immune, and endothelial cells via multiple signaling mechanisms to trigger fibroblast and myofibroblast activation. Recent single-cell RNA sequencing studies of IPF lungs support the epithelial injury model. These studies have uncovered a novel type of AEC with characteristics of an aberrant basal cell, which may disrupt normal epithelial repair and propagate a profibrotic phenotype. Here, we review the pathogenesis of IPF in the context of novel bioinformatics tools as strategies to discover pathways of disease, cell-specific mechanisms, and cell-cell interactions that propagate the profibrotic niche.

Abstract
Premature infants are born with developing lungs burdened by surfactant deficiency and a dearth of antioxidant defense systems. Survival rate of such infants has significantly improved due to advances in care involving mechanical ventilation and oxygen supplementation. However, a significant subset of such survivors develops the chronic lung disease, Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), characterized by enlarged, simplified alveoli and deformed airways. Among a host of factors contributing to the pathogenesis is oxidative damage induced by exposure of the developing lungs to hyperoxia. Recent data indicate that hyperoxia induces aberrant sphingolipid signaling, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and abnormal reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation (ROS). The role of sphingolipids such as ceramides and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), in the development of BPD emerged in the last decade. Both ceramide and S1P are elevated in tracheal aspirates of premature infants of <32 weeks gestational age developing BPD. This was faithfully reflected in the murine models of hyperoxia and BPD, where there is an increased expression of sphingolipid metabolites both in lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage. Treatment of neonatal pups with a sphingosine kinase1 specific inhibitor, PF543, resulted in protection against BPD as neonates, accompanied by improved lung function and reduced airway remodeling as adults. This was accompanied by reduced mitochondrial ROS formation. S1P receptor1 induced by hyperoxia also aggravates BPD, revealing another potential druggable target in this pathway for BPD. In this review we aim to provide a detailed description on the role played by sphingolipid signaling in hyperoxia induced lung injury and BPD.

Abstract
Porcine infectious pleuropneumonia is characterized by a high-rate of carriage and mixed infection with other pathogens. The host immune response induced by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP) is the basis for elucidating pathogenesis and controlling disease. However, there is currently no comprehensive and dynamic data characterising the host immune response. In this study, piglets were infected with APP and differentially expressed proteins of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and peripheral serum were identified by iTRAQ-LC-MS/MS, and differentially expressed genes of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by RNA-seq. The results of the integrated analysis of serum, BALF and PBMC showed significant metabolism and local immune responses in BALF, the general immune response in PBMC mainly involves cytokines, while that in serum mainly involves biosynthesis, phagosome, and complement and coagulation cascades. Furthermore, immune responses in PBMCs and serum were rapid and maintained compared to the lung where metabolism and cell adhesion activities were enriched. Some innate immunity pathways of the cellular response to ROS, neutrophil mediated immunity, granulocyte activation and leukocyte cell-cell adhesion were identified as central points, connecting multiple signaling pathways to form an integrated large network. At 24 h post-infection, 14 molecules were up regulated in BALF, 10 of which were shared with PBMC, but at 120 h, 20 down-regulated molecules were identified in BALF, 11 of them still up- regulated in PBMC. We conclude that, the immune response in the lung is different from that in blood, but there is a similarity in response in PBMC and serum.

Abstract
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a chronic, progressive heterogeneous disease of lung tissues with poor lung function caused by scar tissue. Due to our limited understanding of its mechanism, there is currently no treatment strategy that can prevent the development of PF. In recent years, iron accumulation and mitochondrial damage have been reported to participate in PF, and drugs that reduce iron content and improve mitochondrial function have shown significant efficacy in animal experimental models. Excessive iron leads to mitochondrial impairment, which may be the key cause that results in the dysfunction of various kinds of pulmonary cells and further promotes PF. As an emerging research hotspot, there are few targeted effective therapeutic strategies at present due to limited mechanistic understanding. In this review, the roles of iron homeostasis imbalance and mitochondrial damage in PF are summarized and discussed, highlighting a promising direction for finding truly effective therapeutics for PF.

Abstract
Genomic instability and metabolic reprogramming are among the key hallmarks discriminating cancer cells from normal cells. The two phenomena contribute to the robust and evasive nature of cancer, particularly when cancer cells are exposed to chemotherapeutic agents. Genomic instability is defined as the increased frequency of mutations within the genome, while metabolic reprogramming is the alteration of metabolic pathways that cancer cells undergo to adapt to increased bioenergetic demand. An underlying source of these mutations is the aggregate product of damage to the DNA, and a defective repair pathway, both resulting in the expansion of genomic lesions prior to uncontrolled proliferation and survival of cancer cells. Exploitation of DNA damage and the subsequent DNA damage response (DDR) have aided in defining therapeutic approaches in cancer. Studies have demonstrated that targeting metabolic reprograming yields increased sensitivity to chemo- and radiotherapies. In the past decade, it has been shown that these two key features are interrelated. Metabolism impacts DNA damage and DDR via regulation of metabolite pools. Conversely, DDR affects the response of metabolic pathways to therapeutic agents. Because of the interplay between genomic instability and metabolic reprogramming, we have compiled findings which more selectively highlight the dialog between metabolism and DDR, with a particular focus on glucose metabolism and double-strand break (DSB) repair pathways. Decoding this dialog will provide significant clues for developing combination cancer therapies.

Abstract
Alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) mitochondrial (mt) DNA damage and fibrotic monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (Mo-AMs) are implicated in the pathobiology of pulmonary fibrosis. We showed that sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), a mitochondrial protein regulating cell fate and aging, is deficient in the AECs of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients and that asbestos- and bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis is augmented in Sirt3 knockout (Sirt3-/-) mice associated with AEC mtDNA damage and intrinsic apoptosis. We determined whether whole body transgenic SIRT3 overexpression (Sirt3Tg) protects mice from asbestos-induced pulmonary fibrosis by mitigating lung mtDNA damage and Mo-AM recruitment. Crocidolite asbestos (100 µg/50 µL) or control was instilled intratracheally in C57Bl6 (Wild-Type) mice or Sirt3Tg mice, and at 21 d lung fibrosis (histology, fibrosis score, Sircol assay) and lung Mo-AMs (flow cytometry) were assessed. Compared to controls, Sirt3Tg mice were protected from asbestos-induced pulmonary fibrosis and had diminished lung mtDNA damage and Mo-AM recruitment. Further, pharmacologic SIRT3 inducers (i.e., resveratrol, viniferin, and honokiol) each diminish oxidant-induced AEC mtDNA damage in vitro and, in the case of honokiol, protection occurs in a SIRT3-dependent manner. We reason that SIRT3 preservation of AEC mtDNA is a novel therapeutic focus for managing patients with IPF and other types of pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
Chelerythrine (CHE) is a natural benzophenanthridine alkaloid, which has shown its anti-fibrosis activity in kidney and liver, while the impact of CHE in pulmonary fibrosis is still unclear. This study is developed to explore the impact and mechanism of CHE in pulmonary fibrosis. Pulmonary fibrosis mouse models were established through intratracheal injection of bleomycin (BLM), after which the mice were intraperitoneally injected with CHE (0.375 or 0.75 mg/kg/d) every other day. The mice were sacrificed at the 28th day to collect blood serum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and pulmonary tissues. Then, the severity of pulmonary fibrosis and the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2 [NF-E2]-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in the pulmonary tissues were detected. Western blot analysis quantified the expressions of fibronectin and alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). The levels of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), TGF-β and hydroxyproline (HP) in the BALF, and pulmonary tissues were measured. The expression levels of Nrf2 and its downstream genes, hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) and NAD (P) H: quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1) were examined. CHE at the concentration of 0.375 or 0.75 mg/kg/d could attenuate pulmonary fibrosis. CHE injection reduced the expression levels of fibronectin, α-SMA, and TGF-β, upregulated the levels of SOD and GSH and decreased the levels of 4-HNE and HP. Also, CHE increased the expressions of Nrf2, HO-1, and NQO1. Treatment of Nrf2/antioxidant response element (ARE) inhibitor could block the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway, thus perturbing the inhibition of CHE on BLM-stimulated pulmonary fibrosis in mice. CHE alleviates BLM-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice through activating the Nrf2/ARE pathway to increase the activity of antioxidant enzymes.

Abstract
Mitochondria are crucial regulators of the intrinsic pathway of cancer cell death. The high sensitivity of cancer cells to mitochondrial dysfunction offers opportunities for emerging targets in cancer therapy. Herein, magnetic nano-transducers, which convert external magnetic fields into physical stress, are designed to induce mitochondrial dysfunction to remotely kill cancer cells. Spindle-shaped iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized to maximize cellular internalization and magnetic transduction. The magneto-mechanical transduction of nano-transducers in mitochondria enhances cancer cell apoptosis by promoting a mitochondrial quality control mechanism, referred to as mitophagy. In the liver cancer animal model, nano-transducers are infused into the local liver tumor via the hepatic artery. After treatment with a magnetic field, in vivo mitophagy-mediated cancer cell death was also confirmed by mitophagy markers, mitochondrial DNA damage assay, and TUNEL staining of tissues. This study is expected to contribute to the development of nanoparticle-mediated mitochondria-targeting cancer therapy and biological tools, such as magneto-genetics.

Abstract
Mitochondria are involved in energy metabolism and redox reactions in the cell. Emerging data indicate that mitochondria play an essential role in physiological and pathological processes of neonatal lung development. Mitochondrial damage due to exposure to high concentrations of oxygen is an indeed important factor for simplification of lung structure and development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), as reported in humans and rodent models. Here, we comprehensively review research that have determined the effects of oxygen environment on alveolar development and morphology, summarize changes in mitochondria under high oxygen concentrations, and discuss several mitochondrial mechanisms that may affect cell plasticity and their effects on BPD. Thus, the pathophysiological effects of mitochondria may provide insights into targeted mitochondrial and BPD therapy.

Abstract
Varicocele, a condition associated with increased oxidative stress, negatively affects sperm DNA integrity and reduces pregnancy rates. However, the molecular mechanisms related to DNA integrity, damage, and repair in varicocele patients remain unclear. This study aimed to determine the role of DNA repair molecular mechanisms in varicocele-related infertility by combining an in silico proteomics approach with wet-laboratory techniques. Proteomics results previously generated from varicocele patients (n=50) and fertile controls (n=10) attending our Andrology Center were reanalyzed using bioinformatics tools, including the WEB-based Gene SeT AnaLysis Toolkit, Open Target Platform, and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) involved in DNA repair. Subsequently, selected DEPs in spermatozoa were validated using western blotting in varicocele (n = 13) and fertile control (n = 5) samples. We identified 99 DEPs mainly involved in male reproductive system disease (n=66) and male infertility (n=47). IPA analysis identified five proteins [fatty acid synthase (FASN), myeloperoxidase (MPO), mitochondrial aconitate hydratase (ACO2), nucleoporin 93 (NUP93), and 26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 14 (PSMD14)] associated with DNA repair deficiency, which showed altered expression in varicocele (P <0.03). We validated ACO2 downregulation (fold change=0.37, change%=-62.7%, P=0.0001) and FASN overexpression (fold change = 4.04, change %= 303.7%, P = 0.014) in men with varicocele compared to controls. This study combined a unique in silico approach with an in vitro validation of the molecular mechanisms that may be responsible for varicocele-associated infertility. We identified ACO2 and FASN as possible proteins involved in DNA repair, whose altered expression may contribute to DNA damage in varicocele pathophysiology.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes alleviate hyperoxia-induced lung injury via the manipulation of microRNA-425. Arch Biochem Biophys 2020; 697:108712.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperoxia-induced lung injury (HILI) is an acute lung injury (LI) induced by extended periods of exposure to hyperoxia. Alleviating LI by bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (BMSCs-Exos) and microRNAs (miRs) has been previously reported. This study is devised to probe the interaction between BMSCs-Exos and miR-425 in HILI. METHODS Firstly, BMSCs-Exos were isolated and identified. Then, HILI rat models and RLE-6TN cell models were successfully established and treated by BMSCs-Exos. Afterwards, functional assays were conducted to explore cell biological behaviors in models, with miR-425 expression detected. Then, the target relation between miR-425 and PTEN was clarified by luciferase reporter assay. Eventually, expression of PTEN and the PI3K/Akt axis was assessed by Western blotting and qRT-PCR. RESULTS BMSCs-Exos promoted miR-425 expression and attenuated HILI and H2O2 induced RLE-6TN cell injury as evidence by alleviated lung cell injury, decreased TUNEL-positive cells, induced cell viability and declined apoptosis (all p < 0.05). Besides, when miR-425 was knocked-down, the protective role of BMSCs-Exos in HILI was also reduced (all p < 0.05). miR-425 targeted PTEN mRNA, whose upregulation reversed the protective role of BMSCs-Exos in HILI (all p < 0.05). BMSCs-Exos improved the quenched levels of the PI3K/AKT axis in HILI (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our data supported that miR-425 in BMSCs-Exos inhibits HILI by targeting PTEN and upregulating the PI3K/AKT axis. This study may provide personalized interventions for HILI remedy.

Haploinsufficiency due to a novel ACO2 deletion causes mitochondrial dysfunction in fibroblasts from a patient with dominant optic nerve atrophy. Sci Rep 2020; 10:16736.

Abstract
ACO2 is a mitochondrial protein, which is critically involved in the function of the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), the maintenance of iron homeostasis, oxidative stress defense and the integrity of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Mutations in the ACO2 gene were identified in patients suffering from a broad range of symptoms, including optic nerve atrophy, cortical atrophy, cerebellar atrophy, hypotonia, seizures and intellectual disabilities. In the present study, we identified a heterozygous 51 bp deletion (c.1699_1749del51) in ACO2 in a family with autosomal dominant inherited isolated optic atrophy. A complementation assay using aco1-deficient yeast revealed a growth defect for the mutant ACO2 variant substantiating a pathogenic effect of the deletion. We used patient-derived fibroblasts to characterize cellular phenotypes and found a decrease of ACO2 protein levels, while ACO2 enzyme activity was not affected compared to two age- and gender-matched control lines. Several parameters of mitochondrial function, including mitochondrial morphology, mitochondrial membrane potential or mitochondrial superoxide production, were not changed under baseline conditions. However, basal respiration, maximal respiration, and spare respiratory capacity were reduced in mutant cells. Furthermore, we observed a reduction of mtDNA copy number and reduced mtDNA transcription levels in ACO2-mutant fibroblasts. Inducing oxidative stress led to an increased susceptibility for cell death in ACO2-mutant fibroblasts compared to controls. Our study reveals that a monoallelic mutation in ACO2 is sufficient to promote mitochondrial dysfunction and increased vulnerability to oxidative stress as main drivers of cell death related to optic nerve atrophy.

Abstract
Although fibrosis is a common pathological feature of most end-stage organ diseases, its pathogenesis remains unclear. There is growing evidence that mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to the development and progression of fibrosis. The heart, liver, kidney and lung are highly oxygen-consuming organs that are sensitive to mitochondrial dysfunction. Moreover, the fibrotic process of skin and islet is closely related to mitochondrial dysfunction as well. This review summarized emerging mechanisms related to mitochondrial dysfunction in different fibrotic organs and tissues above. First, it highlighted the important elucidation of mitochondria morphological changes, mitochondrial membrane potential and structural damage, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage and reactive oxidative species (ROS) production, etc. Second, it introduced the abnormality of mitophagy and mitochondrial transfer also contributed to the fibrotic process. Therefore, with gaining the increasing knowledge of mitochondrial structure, function, and origin, we could kindle a new era for the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies of many fibrotic diseases based on mitochondrial dysfunction.

The Sphingosine Kinase 1 Inhibitor, PF543, Mitigates Pulmonary Fibrosis by Reducing Lung Epithelial Cell mtDNA Damage and Recruitment of Fibrogenic Monocytes. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21165595.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease for which novel approaches are urgently required. We reported increased sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1) in IPF lungs and that SPHK1 inhibition using genetic and pharmacologic approaches reduces murine bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. We determined whether PF543, a specific SPHK1 inhibitor post bleomycin or asbestos challenge mitigates lung fibrosis by reducing mitochondrial (mt) DNA damage and pro-fibrotic monocyte recruitment—both are implicated in the pathobiology of pulmonary fibrosis. Bleomycin (1.5 U/kg), crocidolite asbestos (100 µg/50 µL) or controls was intratracheally instilled in Wild-Type (C57Bl6) mice. PF543 (1 mg/kg) or vehicle was intraperitoneally injected once every two days from day 7−21 following bleomycin and day 14−21 or day 30−60 following asbestos. PF543 reduced bleomycin- and asbestos-induced pulmonary fibrosis at both time points as well as lung expression of profibrotic markers, lung mtDNA damage, and fibrogenic monocyte recruitment. In contrast to human lung fibroblasts, asbestos augmented lung epithelial cell (MLE) mtDNA damage and PF543 was protective. Post-exposure PF543 mitigates pulmonary fibrosis in part by reducing lung epithelial cell mtDNA damage and monocyte recruitment. We reason that SPHK1 signaling may be an innovative therapeutic target for managing patients with IPF and other forms of lung fibrosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The etiology of systemic sclerosis (SSc), which is a rare immune-mediated inflammatory disease characterized by vascular damage and fibrosis, is still unknown. However, different intrinsic (genetics) and extrinsic (environmental) factors play a part in the progression of the disease. This review focuses on the role of aging, mitochondrial dysfunction, and senescence in SSc. RECENT FINDINGS Mitochondrial dysfunction and senescence have been linked to the age-related susceptibility to other interstitial lung diseases (ILD) such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). SSc is not regarded as an age-related disease but does show a higher incidence of cardiac events, fibrosis, and mortality at older age. We provide an overview of the current status of the role of aging, mitochondrial dysfunction, and senescence in SSc. Further work is needed to validate some of these pathways in SSc and may allow for new therapeutic interventions focused on restoring mitochondrial homeostasis and the targeted removal of chronic-senescent cells.

Abstract
Alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) apoptosis, arising from mitochondrial dysfunction and mitophagy defects, is important in mediating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Our group established a role for the mitochondrial (mt) DNA base excision repair enzyme, 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase 1 (mtOGG1), in preventing oxidant-induced AEC mtDNA damage and apoptosis and showed that OGG1-deficient mice have increased lung fibrosis. Herein, we determined whether mice overexpressing the mtOGG1 transgene (mtOgg1tg) are protected against lung fibrosis and whether AEC mtOGG1 preservation of mtDNA integrity mitigates phosphatase and tensin homolog-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) deficiency and apoptosis. Compared with wild type (WT), mtOgg1tg mice have diminished asbestos- and bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis that was accompanied by reduced lung and AEC mtDNA damage and apoptosis. Asbestos and H2O2 promote the MLE-12 cell PINK1 deficiency, as assessed by reductions in the expression of PINK1 mRNA and mitochondrial protein expression. Compared with WT, Pink1-knockout (Pink1-KO) mice are more susceptible to asbestos-induced lung fibrosis and have increased lung and alveolar type II (AT2) cell mtDNA damage and apoptosis. AT2 cells from Pink1-KO mice and PINK1-silenced (siRNA) MLE-12 cells have increased mtDNA damage that is augmented by oxidative stress. Interestingly, mtOGG1 overexpression attenuates oxidant-induced MLE-12 cell mtDNA damage and apoptosis despite PINK1 silencing. mtDNA damage is increased in the lungs of patients with IPF as compared with controls. Collectively, these findings suggest that mtOGG1 maintenance of AEC mtDNA is crucial for preventing PINK1 deficiency that promotes apoptosis and lung fibrosis. Given the key role of AEC apoptosis in pulmonary fibrosis, strategies aimed at preserving AT2 cell mtDNA integrity may be an innovative target.

Sphingosine Kinase 1/S1P Signaling Contributes to Pulmonary Fibrosis by Activating Hippo/YAP Pathway and Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species in Lung Fibroblasts. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21062064.

Abstract
The sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1)/sphingosine–1–phosphate (S1P) signaling axis is emerging as a key player in the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and bleomycin (BLM)-induced lung fibrosis in mice. Recent evidence implicates the involvement of the Hippo/Yes-associated protein (YAP) 1 pathway in lung diseases, including IPF, but its plausible link to the SPHK1/S1P signaling pathway is unclear. Herein, we demonstrate the increased co-localization of YAP1 with the fibroblast marker FSP1 in the lung fibroblasts of BLM-challenged mice, and the genetic deletion of Sphk1 in mouse lung fibroblasts (MLFs) reduced YAP1 localization in fibrotic foci. The PF543 inhibition of SPHK1 activity in mice attenuated YAP1 co-localization with FSP1 in lung fibroblasts. In vitro, TGF-β stimulated YAP1 translocation to the nucleus in primary MLFs, and the deletion of Sphk1 or inhibition with PF543 attenuated TGF-β-mediated YAP1 nuclear localization. Moreover, the PF543 inhibition of SPHK1, or the verteporfin inhibition of YAP1, decreased the TGF-β- or BLM-induced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) in human lung fibroblasts (HLFs) and the expression of fibronectin (FN) and alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Furthermore, scavenging mtROS with MitoTEMPO attenuated the TGF-β-induced expression of FN and α-SMA. The addition of the S1P antibody to HLFs reduced TGF-β- or S1P-mediated YAP1 activation, mtROS, and the expression of FN and α-SMA. These results suggest a role for SPHK1/S1P signaling in TGF-β-induced YAP1 activation and mtROS generation, resulting in fibroblast activation, a critical driver of pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
Mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis remain incompletely understood. Emerging evidence suggests changes in mitochondrial quality control are a critical determinant in many lung diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, pulmonary hypertension, acute lung injury, lung cancer, and in the susceptibility to pulmonary fibrosis. Once thought of as the kidney-bean shaped powerhouses of the cell, mitochondria are now known to form interconnected networks that rapidly and continuously change their size to meet cellular metabolic demands. Mitochondrial quality control modulates cell fate and homeostasis, and diminished mitochondrial quality control results in mitochondrial dysfunction, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, reduced ATP production, and often induces intrinsic apoptosis. Here, we review the role of the mitochondria in alveolar epithelial cells, lung macrophages, and fibroblasts within the context of pulmonary fibrosis.

Exosomal miRNA Let-7 from Menstrual Blood-Derived Endometrial Stem Cells Alleviates Pulmonary Fibrosis through Regulating Mitochondrial DNA Damage. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2019; 2019:4506303.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a prototype of chronic, progressive, and fibrotic lung disease with high morbidity and high mortality. Menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) have proven to be an attractive tool for the treatment of acute lung injury and fibrosis-related diseases through immunosuppression and antifibrosis. However, whether MenSC-derived exosomes have the similar function on pulmonary fibrosis remains unclear. In the present study, exosomes secreted from MenSCs (MenSCs-Exo) were verified by transmission electron microscope (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analyzer (NTA), and western blotting. And MenSC-Exo addition significantly improved BLM-induced lung fibrosis and alveolar epithelial cell damage in mice, mainly reflected in BLM-mediated enhancement of the fibrosis score, blue collagen deposition, dry/wet gravity ratio, hydroxyproline and malondialdehyde levels, and downregulation of glutathione peroxidase, which were all robustly reversed by MenSC-Exo management. Additionally, BLM- and TGF-β1-evoked cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage, and cell apoptosis were rescued by MenSCs-Exo in vivo and in vitro. Further study indicated that the MenSCs-Exo could transport miRNA Let-7 into recipient alveolar epithelial cells. Let-7 inhibitor administration significantly blocked the exosome-mediated improvement role on lung fibrosis in mice. Mechanistically, Let-7 was able to regulate the expression of lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX1) through binding to its 3′-UTR region. Forced expression of LOX1 promoted the expression of apoptosis-related protein and mtDNA damage markers via regulating NLRP3 which was also confirmed in BLM model mice under the combination therapy of the exosome and Let-7 inhibitor. Collectively, this study demonstrates that exosomal Let-7 from MenSCs remits pulmonary fibrosis through regulating ROS, mtDNA damage, and NLRP3 inflammasome activation. This provides a new approach of exocytosis on the treatment of fibrotic lung disease.

Abstract
Significance: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive age-related lung disease with a median survival of only 3 years after diagnosis. The pathogenic mechanisms behind IPF are not clearly understood, and current therapeutic approaches have not been successful in improving disease outcomes. Recent Advances: IPF is characterized by increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), primarily by NADPH oxidases (NOXes) and mitochondria, as well as altered antioxidant defenses. Recent studies have identified the NOX isoform NOX4 as a key player in various important aspects of IPF pathology. In addition, mitochondrial dysfunction is thought to enhance pathological features of IPF, in part by increasing mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) production and altering cellular metabolism. Recent findings indicate reciprocal interactions between NOX enzymes and mitochondria, which affect regulation of NOX activity as well as mitochondrial function and mtROS production, and collectively promote epithelial injury and profibrotic signaling. Critical Issues and Future Directions: The precise molecular mechanisms by which ROS from NOX or mitochondria contribute to IPF pathology are not known. This review summarizes the current knowledge with respect to the various aspects of ROS imbalance in the context of IPF and its proposed roles in disease development, with specific emphasis on the importance of inappropriate NOX activation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and the emerging evidence of NOX-mitochondria cross-talk as important drivers in IPF pathobiology.

Abstract
Mammalian aconitases (mitochondrial and cytosolic isoenzymes) are unique iron-sulfur cluster-containing proteins in which the metallic center participates in the catalysis of a non-redox reaction. Within the cubane iron-sulfur cluster of aconitases only three of the four iron ions have cysteine thiolate ligands; the fourth iron ion (Feα) is solvent exposed within the active-site pocket and bound to oxygen atoms from either water or substrates to be dehydrated. The catalyzed reaction is the reversible isomerization of citrate to isocitrate with an intermediate metabolite, cis-aconitate. The cytosolic isoform of aconitase is a moonlighting enzyme; when intracellular iron is scarce, the complete disassembly of the iron-sulfur cluster occurs and apo-aconitase acquires the function of an iron responsive protein and regulates the translation of proteins involved in iron metabolism. In the late 1980s and during the 1990s, cumulative experimental evidence pointed out that aconitases are main targets of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species such as superoxide radical (O2•-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nitric oxide (•NO), and peroxynitrite (ONOO-). These intermediates are capable of oxidizing the cluster, which leads to iron release and consequent loss of the catalytic activity of aconitase. As the reaction of the Fe-S cluster with O2•- is fast (∼107 M-1 s-1), quite specific, and reversible in vivo, quantification of active aconitase has been used to evaluate O2•- formation in cells. While •NO is modestly reactive with aconitase, its reaction with O2•- yields ONOO-, a strong oxidant that readily leads to the disruption of the Fe-S cluster. In the case of cytosolic aconitase, it has been seen that H2O2 and •NO promote activation of iron responsive protein activity in cells. Proteomic advances in the 2000s confirmed that aconitases are main targets of reactive species in cellular models and in vivo, and other post-translational oxidative modifications such as protein nitration and carbonylation have been detected. Herein, we (1) outline the particular structural features of aconitase that make these proteins specific targets of reactive species, (2) characterize the reactions of O2•-, H2O2, •NO, and ONOO- and related species with aconitases, (3) discuss how different oxidative post-translational modifications of aconitase impact the different functions of aconitases, and (4) argue how these proteins might function as redox sensors within different cellular compartments, regulating citrate concentration and efflux from mitochondria, iron availability in the cytosol, and cellular oxidant production.

Abstract
RATIONALE Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a vascular remodeling disease with a poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Although the mechanisms contributing to vascular remodeling in PAH are still unclear, several features, including hyperproliferation and resistance to apoptosis of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), have led to the emergence of the cancer-like concept. The molecular chaperone HSP90 (heat shock protein 90) is directly associated with malignant growth and proliferation under stress conditions. In addition to being highly expressed in the cytosol, HSP90 exists in a subcellular pool compartmentalized in the mitochondria (mtHSP90) of tumor cells, but not in normal cells, where it promotes cell survival. OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that mtHSP90 in PAH-PASMCs represents a protective mechanism against stress, promoting their proliferation and resistance to apoptosis. METHODS Expression and localization of HSP90 were analyzed by Western blot, immunofluorescence, and immunogold electron microscopy. In vitro, effects of mtHSP90 inhibition on mitochondrial DNA integrity, bioenergetics, cell proliferation and resistance to apoptosis were assessed. In vivo, the therapeutic potential of Gamitrinib, a mitochondria-targeted HSP90 inhibitor, was tested in fawn-hooded and monocrotaline rats. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We demonstrated that, in response to stress, HSP90 preferentially accumulates in PAH-PASMC mitochondria (dual immunostaining, immunoblot, and immunogold electron microscopy) to ensure cell survival by preserving mitochondrial DNA integrity and bioenergetic functions. Whereas cytosolic HSP90 inhibition displays a lack of absolute specificity for PAH-PASMCs, Gamitrinib decreased mitochondrial DNA content and repair capacity and bioenergetic functions, thus repressing PAH-PASMC proliferation (Ki67 labeling) and resistance to apoptosis (Annexin V assay) without affecting control cells. In vivo, Gamitrinib improves PAH in two experimental rat models (monocrotaline and fawn-hooded rat). CONCLUSIONS Our data show for the first time that accumulation of mtHSP90 is a feature of PAH-PASMCs and a key regulator of mitochondrial homeostasis contributing to vascular remodeling in PAH.

Abstract
Cellular damage produced by conditions generating oxidative stress have far-reaching implications in human disease that encompass, but are not restricted to aging, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, airway inflammation/asthma, cancer, and metabolic syndrome including visceral obesity, insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, and dyslipidemia. Although there are numerous sources and cellular targets of oxidative stress, this review will highlight literature that has investigated downstream consequences of oxidatively-induced DNA damage in both nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. The presence of such damage can in turn, directly and indirectly modulate cellular transcriptional and repair responses to such stressors. As such, the persistence of base damage can serve as a key regulator in coordinated gene-response cascades. Conversely, repair of these DNA lesions serves as both a suppressor of mutagenesis and by inference carcinogenesis, and as a signal for the cessation of ongoing oxidative stress. A key enzyme in all these processes is 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1), which, via non-catalytic binding to oxidatively-induced DNA damage in promoter regions, serves as a nucleation site around which changes in large-scale regulation of inflammation-associated gene expression can occur. Further, the catalytic function of OGG1 can alter the three-dimensional structure of specialized DNA sequences, leading to changes in transcriptional profiles. This review will concentrate on adverse deleterious health effects that are associated with both the diminution of OGG1 activity via population-specific polymorphic variants and the complete loss of OGG1 in murine models. This mouse model displays diet- and age-related induction of metabolic syndrome, highlighting a key role for OGG1 in protecting against these phenotypes. Conversely, recent investigations using murine models having enhanced global expression of a mitochondrial-targeted OGG1 demonstrate that they are highly resistant to diet-induced disease. These data suggest strategies through which therapeutic interventions could be designed for reducing or limiting adverse human health consequences to these ubiquitous stressors.

Protective Effects of Euthyroidism Restoration on Mitochondria Function and Quality Control in Cardiac Pathophysiology. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20143377.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunctions are major contributors to heart disease onset and progression. Under ischemic injuries or cardiac overload, mitochondrial-derived oxidative stress, Ca2+ dis-homeostasis, and inflammation initiate cross-talking vicious cycles leading to defects of mitochondrial DNA, lipids, and proteins, concurrently resulting in fatal energy crisis and cell loss. Blunting such noxious stimuli and preserving mitochondrial homeostasis are essential to cell survival. In this context, mitochondrial quality control (MQC) represents an expanding research topic and therapeutic target in the field of cardiac physiology. MQC is a multi-tier surveillance system operating at the protein, organelle, and cell level to repair or eliminate damaged mitochondrial components and replace them by biogenesis. Novel evidence highlights the critical role of thyroid hormones (TH) in regulating multiple aspects of MQC, resulting in increased organelle turnover, improved mitochondrial bioenergetics, and the retention of cell function. In the present review, these emerging protective effects are discussed in the context of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) and heart failure, focusing on MQC as a strategy to blunt the propagation of connected dangerous signaling cascades and limit adverse remodeling. A better understanding of such TH-dependent signaling could provide insights into the development of mitochondria-targeted treatments in patients with cardiac disease.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a pernicious lung disease characterized by alveolar epithelial apoptosis, dysregulated repair of epithelial injury, scar formation, and respiratory failure. In this study, we identified phospholipase D (PLD)-generated phosphatidic acid (PA) signaling in the development of pulmonary fibrosis (PF). Of the PLD isoenzymes, the protein expression of PLD2, but not PLD1, was upregulated in lung tissues from IPF patients and bleomycin challenged mice. Both PLD1 (Pld1-/-)- and PLD2 (Pld2-/-)-deficient mice were protected against bleomycin-induced lung inflammation and fibrosis, thereby establishing the role of PLD in fibrogenesis. The role of PLD1 and PLD2 in bleomycin-induced lung epithelial injury was investigated by infecting bronchial airway epithelial cells (Beas2B) with catalytically inactive mutants of PLD (hPLD1-K898R or mPld2-K758R) or downregulation of expression of PLD1 or PLD2 with siRNA. Bleomycin stimulated mitochondrial (mt) superoxide production, mtDNA damage, and apoptosis in Beas2B cells, which was attenuated by the catalytically inactive mutants of PLD or PLD2 siRNA. These results show a role for PLD1 and PLD2 in bleomycin-induced generation of mt reactive oxygen species, mt DNA damage, and apoptosis of lung epithelial cells in mice. Thus, PLD may be a novel therapeutic target in ameliorating experimental PF in mice.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are implicated in the aetiology of interstitial lung disease (ILD). We investigated the role of large-scale somatically acquired mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and consecutive respiratory chain dysfunction as a trigger of ROS-formation and lung fibrosis. Mitochondria were analysed in lung biopsies from 30 patients with idiopathic or connective tissue disease (CTD)-related ILD and 13 controls. In 17 patients we had paired biopsies from upper and lower lobes. Control samples were taken from lung cancer resections without interstitial fibrosis. Malondialdehyde, a marker of ROS-formation, was elevated in ILD-biopsies (p = 0.044). The activity of the mitochondrial respiratory chain (cytochrome c-oxidase/succinate dehydrogenase [COX/SDH]-ratio) was depressed in ILD (median = 0.10,) compared with controls (0.12, p < 0.001), as was the expression of mtDNA-encoded COX-subunit-2 protein normalized for the nucleus-encoded COX-subunit-4 (COX2/COX4-ratio; ILD-median = 0.6; controls = 2.2; p < 0.001). Wild-type mtDNA copies were slightly elevated in ILD (p = 0.088). The common mtDNA deletion was only present at low levels in controls (median = 0%) and at high levels in ILD (median = 17%; p < 0.001). In ILD-lungs with paired biopsies, lower lobes contained more malondialdehyde and mtDNA deletions than upper lobes and had lower COX2/COX4-ratios and COX/SDH-ratios (all p < 0.001). Acquired mtDNA-mutations and consecutive respiratory chain dysfunction may both trigger and perpetuate ROS-formation in ILD.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and other forms of lung fibrosis are age-associated diseases with increased deposition of mesenchymal collagen that promotes respiratory malfunction and eventual death from respiratory failure. Our understanding of the pathobiology underlying pulmonary fibrosis is incomplete and current therapies available to slow or treat lung fibrosis are limited. Evidence reviewed herein demonstrates key involvement of mitochondrial dysfunction in diverse pulmonary cell populations, including alveolar epithelial cells (AEC), fibroblasts, and macrophages and/or immune cells that collectively advances the development of pulmonary fibrosis. The mitochondria have an important role in regulating whether fibrogenic stimuli results in the return of normal healthy function ("friend") or the development of pulmonary fibrosis ("foe"). In particular, we summarize the evidence suggesting that AEC mitochondrial dysfunction is important in mediating lung fibrosis signaling via mechanisms involving imbalances in the levels of reactive oxygen species, endoplasmic reticulum stress response, mitophagy, apoptosis and/or senescence, and inflammatory signaling. Further, we review the emerging evidence suggesting that dysfunctional mitochondria in AECs and other cell types play crucial roles in modulating nearly all aspects of the 9 hallmarks of aging in the context of pulmonary fibrosis as well as some novel molecular pathways that have recently been identified. Finally, we discuss the potential translational aspects of these studies as well as the key knowledge gaps necessary for better informing our understanding of the pathobiology of the mitochondria in mediating pulmonary fibrosis. We reason that targeting deficient mitochondria-derived pathways may provide innovative future treatment strategies that are urgently needed for lung fibrosis.

Abstract
Mitochondria regulate not only cell functions through energy generation but also aging-associated cell phenotypes. Impaired mitochondrial structural and functional integrity accompanied by excessive mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) production is associated with enhanced programmed cell death (PCD) and cellular senescence. Dysregulation of mechanisms for mitochondrial integrity, including mitophagy, induces accumulation of mitochondrial damage. Mitophagy is a highly conserved mechanism of selectively delivering damaged mitochondria for lysosomal degradation and is mainly governed by phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)-induced putative protein kinase 1 (PINK1) and PARK2. Accumulating evidence suggests that PINK1-PARK2-mediated mitophagy has an important role in the pathogenesis of aging-associated pulmonary disorders, represented by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). COPD characterized by progressive airflow limitation is mainly caused by cigarette smoke (CS) exposure, and accumulation of damaged mitochondria in bronchial epithelial cells (BEC) has been demonstrated. Intriguingly, both enhanced and impaired mitophagy have been implicated in COPD pathogenesis. Enhanced mitophagy induced by increased PINK1 expression has been associated with programmed necrosis, necroptosis. On the other hand, reduced PARK2 levels were linked to insufficient mitophagy, resulting in accelerated cellular senescence in BEC. Although dominant involvement of PCD and cellular senescence remains unclear, PINK1-PARK2-mediated mitophagy regulates mitochondrial ROS and cell fate during COPD pathogenesis. Involvement of insufficient mitophagy has been proposed in lung fibrosis development during IPF pathogenesis. Accumulation of dysmorphic mitochondria and increased ROS production linked to decrease in PINK1 expression were demonstrated in type II alveolar epithelial cells (AECIIs) in IPF lungs, which can be associated with enhanced apoptosis and cellular senescence. Furthermore, reduced PARK2 expression levels have been shown in myofibroblasts in IPF lungs. Insufficient mitophagy caused by PARK2 deficiency induced mtROS production with concomitantly activated platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling, resulting in increased myofibroblast differentiation and proliferation. Inappropriate PINK1-PARK2-mediated mitophagy appears to be mainly responsible for regulating cell fate, including PCD, cellular senescence, and myofibroblast differentiation during COPD and IPF pathogeneses. Modalities to achieve specific and appropriate levels of PINK1-PARK2-mediated mitophagy activation may be a promising therapeutic option to regulate the aging-associated pathology, COPD, and IPF.

Abstract
The epithelial barrier of the lung is destroyed during acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to the apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells (AECs). Therefore, treatments that block AEC apoptosis might be a therapeutic strategy to ameliorate ALI. Based on recent evidence, A2B adenosine receptor (A2BAR) plays an important role in ALI in several different animal models, but its exact function in AECs has not been clarified. We investigated the role of A2BAR in AEC apoptosis in a mouse model of oleic acid (OA)-induced ALI and in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced AEC (A549 cells and MLE-12 cells) injury. Mice treated with BAY60-6583, a selective A2BAR agonist, showed lower AEC apoptosis rates than mice treated with OA. However, the role of BAY60-6583 in OA-induced ALI was attenuated by a specific blocker of A2BAR, PSB1115. A2BAR activation decreased H2O2-induced cell apoptosis in vitro, as characterized by the translocation of apoptotic proteins, the release of cytochrome c, and the activation of caspase-3 and poly (ADP ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1). In addition, apoptosis was required for the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38, and JNK. Importantly, compared with cells transfected with the A2BAR-siRNA, an ERK inhibitor or p38 inhibitor exhibited decreased apoptotic ratios and cleaved caspase-9 and cleaved PARP-1 levels, whereas the JNK inhibitor displayed increases in these parameters. In conclusion, A2BAR activation effectively attenuated OA-induced ALI by inhibiting AEC apoptosis and mitigated H2O2-induced AEC injury by suppressing the p38 and ERK1/2-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis pathway.

Abstract
The common oxidatively generated lesion, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoGua), is removed from DNA by base excision repair. The glycosylase primarily charged with recognition and removal of this lesion is 8-oxoGuaDNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1). When left unrepaired, 8-oxodG alters transcription and is mutagenic. Individuals homozygous for the less active OGG1 allele, Ser326Cys, have increased risk of several cancers. Here, small molecule enhancers of OGG1 were identified and tested for their ability to stimulate DNA repair and protect cells from the environmental hazard paraquat (PQ). PQ-induced mtDNA damage was inversely proportional to the levels of OGG1 expression whereas stimulation of OGG1, in some cases, entirely abolished its cellular effects. The PQ-mediated decline of mitochondrial membrane potential or nuclear condensation were prevented by the OGG1 activators. In addition, in Ogg1-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts complemented with hOGG1S326C, there was increased cellular and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species compared to their wild type counterparts. Mitochondrial extracts from cells expressing hOGG1S326C were deficient in mitochondrial 8-oxodG incision activity, which was rescued by the OGG1 activators. These data demonstrate that small molecules can stimulate OGG1 activity with consequent cellular protection. Thus, OGG1-activating compounds may be useful in select humans to mitigate the deleterious effects of environmental oxidants and mutagens.

Abstract
The aging of the human population has resulted in an unprecedented increase in the incidence and prevalence of age-related diseases, including those of the lung. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a disease of aging, and is characterized by a progressive decline in lung function and high mortality. Recent studies suggest that mitochondrial dysfunction, which can accompany aging phenotypes, may contribute to the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. In this review, we explore current evidence for mitochondrial dysfunction in alveolar epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells that participate in the fibrotic process. Further, the fates of these cell populations and the potential to target mitochondrial dysfunction as a therapeutic strategy are discussed.

Abstract
Accumulation of 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) in mitochondrial DNA and mitochondrial dysfunction have been observed in cells deficient for the DNA glycosylase OGG1 when exposed to oxidative stress. In human cells, up to eight mRNAs for OGG1 can be generated by alternative splicing and it is still unclear which of them codes for the protein that ensures the repair of 8-oxoG in mitochondria. Here, we show that the α-OGG1 isoform, considered up to now to be exclusively nuclear, has a functional mitochondrial-targeting sequence and is imported into mitochondria. We analyse the sub-mitochondrial localisation of α-OGG1 with unprecedented resolution and show that this DNA glycosylase is associated with DNA in mitochondrial nucleoids. We show that the presence of α-OGG1 inside mitochondria and its enzymatic activity are required to preserve the mitochondrial network in cells exposed to oxidative stress. Altogether, these results unveil a new role of α-OGG1 in the mitochondria and indicate that the same isoform ensures the repair of 8-oxoG in both nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. The activity of α-OGG1 in mitochondria is sufficient for the recovery of organelle function after oxidative stress.

Progression of Pulmonary Emphysema and Continued Increase in Ectodomain Shedding of Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 After Cessation of Cigarette Smoke Exposure in Mice. Front Cell Dev Biol 2018; 6:52.

Abstract
Pulmonary emphysema usually arises in cigarette smokers, and often progresses after smoking cessation and even in ex-smokers. Lung-epithelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1), an immunoglobulin superfamily member, is extracellularly shed to produce a proapoptotic C-terminal fragment (CTF) within the cell and contribute to the development of emphysema. Here, we made an ex-smoker model using C57BL/6 mice; mice (6-week-old; 5 mice per group) were exposed to passive smoke of eight cigarettes twice a day 5 days a week until 18 weeks of age, and were then left untreated until 30 weeks of age. We calculated the mean linear intercept (Lm) and the alveolar septal thickness in the lung histologic sections to estimate the alveolar space dilatation. At 18 weeks of age, Lm was marginally enlarged (P = 0.023) with a marked increase in the septal thickness (P < 0.001) in comparison with age-matched control mice (5 mice per group), while at 30 weeks, the increase in Lm was much more prominent (P = 0.006) and the septal thickness was normalized, suggesting that emphysema progressed with septal remodeling during smoking cessation. Western blot analyses of the lungs were performed for CADM1, a possible CADM1 sheddase ADAM10, an epithelial marker pan-cytokeratin, and a myofibroblastic marker α-smooth muscle actin to estimate the expression levels of CTF and ADAM10 per epithelial cell and the levels of pan-cytokeratin and αSMA per tissue. CADM1 shedding was increased in the treated mice than in control mice at both ages, in association with an increase in the CTF level at 30 weeks (P = 0.021). In total of the treated and control mice of 30 weeks of age, Lm was positively correlated with the CTF and ADAM10 levels, and pan-cytokeratin was negatively correlated with CTF, suggesting an involvement of CADM1 shedding in emphysema progression. Positive correlations were also found between CTF and ADAM10, and between ADAM10 and αSMA, suggesting that increased septal myofibroblasts might be involved in increased CADM1 shedding. Taken together, persisting increase in ectodomain shedding of CADM1 appeared to contribute to the progression of emphysema in ex-smokers, and might be accounted for by alveolar septal remodeling.

Abstract
Although reduced tidal volumes have improved patient survival during ventilation for acute lung injury, further improvements will require pharmacologic interventions of the cellular pathways for inflammation and injury. We previously reported that pretreatment with mitochondrial targeted mtDNA repair enzymes largely prevented lung injury and inflammation during a protocol for moderately severe ventilation induced lung injury. GSH/GSSG ratios indicated that free radical production had been reduced to baseline levels by treatment. The central role of the alveolar macrophages and cellular mechanisms of injury are discussed. This includes a rapid calcium entry and mitochondrial production of excessive reactive oxygen species. Excessive ROS can then result in activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and secretion of IL-1 and IL-18 by caspase-1. A simultaneous activation of NFkB to transcribe pro forms of the cytokines is stimulated by damage associated molecular pattern (DAMP) recognition receptors. These are primarily TLR4 responding to various cellular damage products and TLR9 responding to mtDNA fragments that appear to be primarily involved. Intervention in these pathways could result in useful future clinical treatments.
