Abstract
Autophagy is a dynamic self-renovation biological process that maintains cell homeostasis and is responsible for the quality control of proteins, organelles, and energy metabolism. The E1-like ubiquitin-activating enzyme autophagy-related gene 7 (ATG7) is a critical factor that initiates classic autophagy reactions by promoting the formation and extension of autophagosome membranes. Recent studies have identified the key functions of ATG7 in regulating the cell cycle, apoptosis, and metabolism associated with the occurrence and development of multiple diseases. This review summarizes how ATG7 is precisely programmed by genetic, transcriptional, and epigenetic modifications in cells and the relationship between ATG7 and aging-related diseases.

Abstract
The increasing incidence of ischemic stroke emphasizes the necessity for early detection and preventive strategies. Diagnostic biomarkers currently available for ischemic stroke only become detectable shortly before the manifestation of stroke symptoms. Genetic variants associated with ischemic stroke offer a potential solution to address this diagnostic limitation. However, it is crucial to acknowledge that genetic variants cannot be modified in the same way as epigenetic changes. Nevertheless, individuals carrying risk or protective variants can modify their lifestyle to potentially influence the associated epigenetic factors. This study aims to summarize specific variants relevant to Asian populations that may aid in the early detection of ischemic stroke and explore their impact on the disease's pathophysiology. These variants give us important information about the genes that play a role in ischemic stroke by affecting things like atherosclerosis pathway, blood coagulation pathway, homocysteine metabolism, transporter function, transcription, and the activity of neurons regulation. It is important to recognize the variations in genetic variants among different ethnicities and avoid generalizing the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
At a time when complex diseases affect globally 280 million people and claim 14 million lives every year, there is an urgent need to rapidly increase our knowledge into their underlying etiologies. Though critical in identifying the people at risk, the causal environmental factors (microbiome and/or pollutants) and the affected pathophysiological mechanisms are not well understood. Herein, we consider the variations of autophagy-related (ATG) genes at the heart of mechanisms of increased susceptibility to environmental stress. A comprehensive autophagy genomic resource is presented with 263 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for 69 autophagy-related genes associated with 117 autoimmune, inflammatory, infectious, cardiovascular, neurological, respiratory, and endocrine diseases. We thus propose the term 'autophagopathies' to group together a class of complex human diseases the etiology of which lies in a genetic defect of the autophagy machinery, whether directly related or not to an abnormal flux in autophagy, LC3-associated phagocytosis, or any associated trafficking. The future of precision medicine for common diseases will lie in our ability to exploit these ATG SNP x environment relationships to develop new polygenetic risk scores, new management guidelines, and optimal therapies for afflicted patients.Abbreviations: ATG, autophagy-related; ALS-FTD, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia; ccRCC, clear cell renal cell carcinoma; CD, Crohn disease; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; eQTL, expression quantitative trait loci; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; HNSCC, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma; GTEx, genotype-tissue expression; GWAS, genome-wide association studies; LAP, LC3-associated phagocytosis; LC3-II, phosphatidylethanolamine conjugated form of LC3; LD, linkage disequilibrium; LUAD, lung adenocarcinoma; MAF, minor allele frequency; MAP1LC3/LC3: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3; NSCLC, non-small cell lung cancer; OS, overall survival; PtdIns3K CIII, class III phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase; PtdIns3P, phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate; SLE, systemic lupus erythematosus; SNPs, single-nucleotide polymorphisms; mQTL, methylation quantitative trait loci; ULK, unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase; UTRs, untranslated regions; WHO, World Health Organization.

[PMID: 35781746 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.23151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2021] [Revised: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
To unveil the role and regulatory mechanism of miR-146a-5p in sepsis. A sepsis cell model was established via lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induction in dendritic cells (DCs). The maturation of DCs was evaluated via flow cytometry. Gene expression was measured through reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The concentrations of inflammation biomarkers were revealed via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The pathological and histological changes in lungs in the sepsis mice model were analyzed via hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. In this study, the miR-146a-5p level was elevated in the serum of sepsis patients and LPS-induced DCs but decreased in the serums of cured sepsis patients. Furthermore, miR-146a-5p deletion alleviated the activation of T cells and attenuated the imbalance of Th17/Treg. Besides, ATG7 was validated as a target of miR-146a-5p. ATG7 elevation enhanced lactate production and glucose uptake in LPS-triggered DCs. Additionally, upregulation of ATG7 suppressed the protein levels of phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (p-AMPK), phospho protein kinase B (p-AKT), and phosphorylated signal transducer and activator for transcription 3 (p-STAT3). In addition, miR-146a-5p downregulation alleviated T-cell activation, inflammation, lactate production, and glucose uptake in sepsis mice. Moreover, the lung injury due to sepsis was also attenuated as a result of miR-146a-5p silencing. MiR-146a-5p aggravates sepsis through DCs activation and glycolysis via targeting ATG7.

Association analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms in autophagy related 7 (ATG7) gene in patients with coronary artery disease. Medicine (Baltimore) 2022; 101:e29776. [PMID: 35777002 PMCID: PMC9239656 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000029776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Recent experimental studies sparked the involvement of autophagy-related 7 (ATG7) in the development of atherosclerosis. However, the genetic variants and their association with coronary artery disease (CAD) are still to be unveiled. Therefore, we aimed to design a retrospective case-control study for the analysis of ATG7 gene polymorphisms and their association with CAD among the subjects originating from Pakistan. The ATG7 noncoding polymorphisms (rs1375206; Chr3:11297643 C/G and rs550744886; Chr3:11272004 C/G) were examined in 600 subjects, including 300 individuals diagnosed with CAD. Arginase-1 (ARG1) and nitric oxide metabolites were measured by the colorimetric enzymatic assay. Genotyping of noncoding ATG7 polymorphisms was accomplished by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. A significant association of ATG7 (rs1375206 and rs550744886) was observed in individuals exhibiting CAD (P < .0001, for each single-nucleotide polymorphism). Moreover, variant allele G at both loci showed high occurrence and significant association with the disease phenotype as compared to the wild-type allele (odds ratio [OR] = 2.03, P < .0001 and OR = 2.08, P < .001, respectively). Variant genotypes at ATG7 rs1375206 and rs550744886 showed significant association with high concentrations of ARG1 and low nitric oxide metabolites among the patients (P < .0001 for each). A significant difference was noted in the distribution of the haplotype G-G, mapped at Chr3:11297643-11272004 between cases and controls (P < .0001). The study concludes that ATG7 polymorphisms are among the risk factors for CAD in the subjects from Pakistan. The study thus highlights the novel risk factors for high incidents of the disease and reported for the first time to the best of our knowledge.
