Abstract
BACKGROUND Leymus chinensis (L. chinensis) is a perennial native forage grass widely distributed in the steppe of Inner Mongolia as the dominant species. Calcium (Ca) is an essential mineral element important for plant adaptation to the growth environment. Ca limitation was previously shown to strongly inhibit Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seedling growth and disrupt plasma membrane stability and selectivity, increasing fluid-phase-based endocytosis and contents of all major membrane lipids. RESULTS In this study, we investigated the significance of Ca for L. chinensis growth and membrane stability relative to Arabidopsis. Our results showed that Ca limitation did not affect L. chinensis seedling growth and endocytosis in roots. Moreover, the plasma membrane maintained high selectivity. The lipid phosphatidylcholine (PC): phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) ratio, an indicator of the membrane stability, was five times higher in L. chinensis than in Arabidopsis. Furthermore, in L. chinensis, Ca limitation did not affect the content of any major lipid types, decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) content, and increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, showing an opposite pattern to that in Arabidopsis. L. chinensis roots accumulated higher contents of PC, phosphatidylinositol (PI), monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), cardiolipin (CL), digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG), and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) but less phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), diacylglycerol (DAG), triacylglycerolv (TAG), phosphatidylserine (PS), lysobisphosphatidic acids (LPAs), lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE), and lysophosphatidylserine (LPS) than Arabidopsis roots. Moreover, we detected 31 and 66 unique lipids in L. chinensis and Arabidopsis, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that L. chinensis roots have unique membrane lipid composition that was not sensitive to Ca limitation, which might contribute to the wider natural distribution of this species.

Functionalized Hybrid Iron Oxide-Gold Nanoparticles Targeting Membrane Hsp70 Radiosensitize Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells by ROS-Mediated Apoptosis. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15041167. [PMID: 36831510 PMCID: PMC9954378 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15041167] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2023] [Revised: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) a highly aggressive tumor entity with an unfavorable prognosis, is treated by multimodal therapies, including ionizing radiation (IR). Radiation-resistant tumor cells, as well as induced normal tissue toxicity, contribute to the poor clinical outcome of the disease. In this study, we investigated the potential of novel hybrid iron oxide (Fe3O4)-gold (Au) nanoparticles (FeAuNPs) functionalized with the heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) tumor-penetrating peptide (TPP) and coupled via a PEG4 linker (TPP-PEG4-FeAuNPs) to improve tumor targeting and uptake of NPs and to break radioresistance in TNBC cell lines 4T1 and MDA-MB-231. Hsp70 is overexpressed in the cytosol and abundantly presented on the cell membrane (mHsp70) of highly aggressive tumor cells, including TNBCs, but not on corresponding normal cells, thus providing a tumor-specific target. The Fe3O4 core of the NPs can serve as a contrast agent enabling magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the tumor, and the nanogold shell radiosensitizes tumor cells by the release of secondary electrons (Auger electrons) upon X-ray irradiation. We demonstrated that the accumulation of TPP-PEG4-FeAuNPs into mHsp70-positive TNBC cells was superior to that of non-conjugated FeAuNPs and FeAuNPs functionalized with a non-specific, scrambled peptide (NGL). After a 24 h co-incubation period of 4T1 and MDA-MB-231 cells with TPP-PEG4-FeAuNPs, but not with control hybrid NPs, ionizing irradiation (IR) causes a cell cycle arrest at G2/M and induces DNA double-strand breaks, thus triggering apoptotic cell death. Since the radiosensitizing effect was completely abolished in the presence of the ROS inhibitor N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), we assume that the TPP-PEG4-FeAuNP-induced apoptosis is mediated via an increased production of ROS.

Abstract
The toxic reactive oxygen species (toxROS) is the reactive oxygen species (ROS) beyond the normal concentration of cells, which has inactivation and disinfection effects on foodborne bacteria. However, foodborne bacteria can adapt and survive by physicochemical regulation of antioxidant systems, especially through central carbon metabolism (CCM), which is a significant concern for food safety. It is thus necessary to study the antioxidant regulation mechanisms of CCM in foodborne bacteria under toxROS stresses. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to provide an update and comprehensive overview of the reconfiguration of CCM fluxes in foodborne bacteria that respond to different toxROS stresses. In this review, two key types of toxROS including exogenous toxROS (exo-toxROS) and endogenous toxROS (endo-toxROS) are introduced. Exo-toxROS are produced by disinfectants, such as H2O2 and HOCl, or during food non-thermal processing such as ultraviolet (UV/UVA), cold plasma (CP), ozone (O3), electrolyzed water (EW), pulsed electric field (PEF), pulsed light (PL), and electron beam (EB) processing. Endo-toxROS are generated by bioreagents such as antibiotics (aminoglycosides, quinolones, and β-lactams). Three main pathways for CCM in foodborne bacteria under the toxROS stress are also highlighted, which are glycolysis (EMP), pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), and tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA). In addition, energy metabolisms throughout these pathways are discussed. Finally, challenges and future work in this area are suggested. It is hoped that this review should be beneficial in providing insights for future research on bacterial antioxidant CCM defence under both exo-toxROS stresses and endo-toxROS stresses.

Abstract
Inter-tissue communication is instrumental to coordinating the whole-body level behaviour for complex multicellular organisms. However, little is known about the regulation of inter-tissue information exchange. Here we carried out genetic screens for root-to-shoot mobile silencing in Arabidopsis plants with a compromised small RNA-mediated gene silencing movement rate and identified radical-induced cell death 1 (RCD1) as a critical regulator of root-shoot communication. RCD1 belongs to a family of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase proteins, which are highly conserved across land plants. We found that RCD1 coordinates symplastic and apoplastic movement by modulating the sterol level of lipid rafts. The higher superoxide production in rcd1-knockout plants resulted in lower plasmodesmata (PD) frequency and altered PD structure in the symplasm of the hypocotyl cortex. Furthermore, the mutants showed increased lateral area of tracheary pits, which reduced axial movement. Our study highlights a novel mechanism through which root-to-shoot long-distance signalling can be modulated both symplastically and apoplastically.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:872242. [PMID: 35574149 PMCID: PMC9100952 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.872242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 03/31/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Iron (Fe) deficiency in alkaline calcium soil is a problem that needs to be solved urgently as Fe is an essential and commonly limiting nutrient for plants. Endophytic fungus, Phomopsis liquidambaris (P. liquidambaris), has been reported to promote Fe absorption in peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.), however, the mechanisms remain unclear. Under prolonged Fe deficiency, an increase in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) often triggers a series of signaling events and leads to the inhibition of Fe acquisition. The main purpose of this study was to explore whether and how the endophytic fungus P. liquidambaris promote Fe absorption in peanut through regulating H2O2 and assisting in resisting oxidative stress. In this study, we detected the Fe deficiency-induced transcription factor (FIT), Fe2+ transporter (IRT1), and ferric reduction oxidase 2 (FRO2) of peanuts, and confirmed that they were negatively related to Fe concentration. Similarly, FIT, IRT1, and FRO2 were also inhibited by H2O2. The addition of P. liquidambaris reduces H2O2 under Fe-deficiency with an increase in Fe content, while the exogenous addition of H2O2 further decreases it, and the addition of catalase (CAT) under Fe-deficiency reverses this phenomenon. Through transcriptome analysis, we proved that the expression of FIT, IRT1, FRO2 and CAT are consistent with our hypothesis, and P. liquidambaris has a stress-mitigating effect on peanuts mainly via CAT, glutathione peroxidase, and malondialdehyde. Our study proved the Fe-absorption promoting effect and stress mitigation effect of P. liquidambaris under Fe-deficiency in peanuts, and their combined usage may help peanuts grow better.
