Paricalcitol attenuates oxidative stress and inflammatory response in the liver of NAFLD rats by regulating FOXO3a and NFκB acetylation. Cell Signal 2024; 121:111299. [PMID: 39004324 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2024.111299] [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: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
The lack of therapeutics along with complex pathophysiology made non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) a research hotspot. Studies showed that the deficiency of Vitamin D plays a vital role in NAFLD pathogenesis. While several research studies focused on vitamin D supplementation in NAFLD, there is still a need to understand the regulatory mechanism of direct vitamin D receptor activation in NAFLD. In the present study, we explored the role of direct Vitamin D receptor activation using paricalcitol in choline-deficient high-fat diet-induced NAFLD rat liver and its modulation on protein acetylation. Our results showed that paricalcitol administration significantly reduced the fat accumulation in HepG2 cells and the liver of NAFLD rats. Paricalcitol attenuated the elevated serum level of alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, insulin, low-density lipoprotein, triglyceride, and increased high-density lipoprotein in NAFLD rats. Paricalcitol significantly decreased the increased total protein acetylation by enhancing the SIRT1 and SIRT3 expression in NAFLD liver. Further, the study revealed that paricalcitol reduced the acetylation of NFκB and FOXO3a in NAFLD liver along with a decrease in the mRNA expression of IL1β, NFκB, TNFα, and increased catalase and MnSOD. Moreover, total antioxidant activity, glutathione, and catalase were also elevated, whereas lipid peroxidation, myeloperoxidase, and reactive oxygen species levels were significantly decreased in the liver of NAFLD after paricalcitol administration. The study concludes that the downregulation of SIRT1 and SIRT3 in NAFLD liver was associated with an increased acetylated NFκB and FOXO3a. Paricalcitol effectively reversed hepatic inflammation and oxidative stress in NAFLD rats through transcriptional regulation of NFκB and FOXO3a, respectively, by inhibiting their acetylation.

Quantitative analysis of the lysine acetylome reveals the role of SIRT3-mediated HSP60 deacetylation in suppressing intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis survival. Microbiol Spectr 2024; 12:e0074924. [PMID: 38916288 PMCID: PMC11302147 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00749-24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Protein acetylation and deacetylation are key epigenetic modifications that regulate the initiation and development of several diseases. In the context of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), these processes are essential for host-pathogen interactions and immune responses. However, the specific effects of acetylation and deacetylation on cellular functions during M. tb infection are not fully understood. This study employed Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) labeling for quantitative proteomic profiling to examine the acetylproteome (acetylome) profiles of noninfected and M. tb-infected macrophages. We identified 715 acetylated peptides from 1,072 proteins and quantified 544 lysine acetylation sites (Kac) in 402 proteins in noninfected and M. tb-infected macrophages. Our research revealed a link between acetylation events and metabolic changes during M. tb infection. Notably, the deacetylation of heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), a key chaperone protein, was significantly associated with this process. Specifically, the deacetylation of HSP60 at K96 by sirtuin3 (SIRT3) enhances macrophage apoptosis, leading to the elimination of intracellular M. tb. These findings underscore the pivotal role of the SIRT3-HSP60 axis in the host immune response to M. tb. This study offers a new perspective on host protein acetylation and suggests that targeting host-directed therapies could be a promising approach for tuberculosis immunotherapy. IMPORTANCE Protein acetylation is crucial for the onset, development, and outcome of tuberculosis (TB). Our study comprehensively investigated the dynamics of lysine acetylation during M. tb infection, shedding light on the intricate host-pathogen interactions that underlie the pathogenesis of tuberculosis. Using an advanced quantitative lysine proteomics approach, different profiles of acetylation sites and proteins in macrophages infected with M. tb were identified. Functional enrichment and protein-protein network analyses revealed significant associations between acetylated proteins and key cellular pathways, highlighting their critical role in the host response to M. tb infection. Furthermore, the deacetylation of HSP60 and its influence on macrophage-mediated clearance of M. tb underscore the functional significance of acetylation in tuberculosis pathogenesis. In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the regulatory mechanisms governing host immune responses to M. tb infection and offers promising avenues for developing novel therapeutic interventions against TB.

Abstract
After the initial androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), part of the prostate cancer may continuously deteriorate into castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). The majority of patients suffer from the localized illness at primary diagnosis that could rapidly assault other organs. This disease stage is referred as metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Surgery and radiation are still the treatment of CRPC, but have some adverse effects such as urinary symptoms and sexual dysfunction. Hormonal castration therapy interfering androgen receptor (AR) signaling pathway is indispensable for most advanced prostate cancer patients, and the first- and second-generation of novel AR inhibitors could effectively cure hormone sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC). However, the resistance to these chemical agents is inevitable, so many of patients may experience relapses. The resistance to AR inhibitor mainly involves AR mutation, splice variant formation and amplification, which indicates the important role in CRPC. Proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC), a potent technique to degrade targeted protein, has recently undergone extensive development as a biological tool and therapeutic drug. This technique has the potential to become the next generation of antitumor therapeutics as it could overcome the shortcomings of conventional small molecule inhibitors. In this review, we summarize the molecular mechanisms on PROTACs targeting AR signaling for CRPC, hoping to provide insights into drug development and clinical medication.

Abstract
Over 400 different types of post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been reported and over 200 various types of PTMs have been discovered using mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics. MS-based proteomics has proven to be a powerful method capable of global PTM mapping with the identification of modified proteins/peptides, the localization of PTM sites and PTM quantitation. PTMs play regulatory roles in protein functions, activities and interactions in various heart related diseases, such as ischemia/reperfusion injury, cardiomyopathy and heart failure. The recognition of PTMs that are specific to cardiovascular pathology and the clarification of the mechanisms underlying these PTMs at molecular levels are crucial for discovery of novel biomarkers and application in a clinical setting. With sensitive MS instrumentation and novel biostatistical methods for precise processing of the data, low-abundance PTMs can be successfully detected and the beneficial or unfavorable effects of specific PTMs on cardiac function can be determined. Moreover, computational proteomic strategies that can predict PTM sites based on MS data have gained an increasing interest and can contribute to characterization of PTM profiles in cardiovascular disorders. More recently, machine learning- and deep learning-based methods have been employed to predict the locations of PTMs and explore PTM crosstalk. In this review article, the types of PTMs are briefly overviewed, approaches for PTM identification/quantitation in MS-based proteomics are discussed and recently published proteomic studies on PTMs associated with cardiovascular diseases are included.

Abstract
Enteroviruses (EVs) are the main cause of a number of neurological diseases. Growing evidence has revealed that successful infection with enteroviruses is highly dependent on the host machinery, therefore, host proteins play a pivotal role in viral infections. Both host and viral proteins can undergo post-translational modification (PTM) which can regulate protein activity, stability, solubility and interactions with other proteins; thereby influencing various biological processes, including cell metabolism, metabolic, signaling pathways, cell death, and cancer development. During viral infection, both host and viral proteins regulate the viral life cycle through various PTMs and different mechanisms, including the regulation of host cell entry, viral protein synthesis, genome replication, and the antiviral immune response. Therefore, protein PTMs play important roles in EV infections. Here, we review the role of various host- and virus-associated PTMs during enterovirus infection.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) is one of the most circulated human pathogens, and influenza disease, commonly known as the flu, remains one of the most recurring and prevalent infectious human diseases globally. IAV continues to challenge existing vaccines and antiviral drugs via its ability to evolve constantly. It is critical to identify the molecular determinants of IAV pathogenesis to understand the basis of flu severity in different populations and design improved antiviral strategies. In recent years, acetylation has been identified as one of the determinants of IAV pathogenesis. Acetylation was originally discovered as an epigenetic protein modification of histones. But, it is now known to be one of the ubiquitous protein modifications of both histones and non-histone proteins and a determinant of proteome complexity. Since our first observation in 2007, significant progress has been made in understanding the role of acetylation during IAV infection. Now, it is becoming clearer that acetylation plays a pro-IAV function via at least three mechanisms: (1) by reducing the host's sensing of IAV infection, (2) by dampening the host's innate antiviral response against IAV, and (3) by aiding the stability and function of viral and host proteins during IAV infection. In turn, IAV antagonizes the host deacetylases, which erase acetylation, to facilitate its replication. This review provides an overview of the research progress made on this subject so far and outlines research prospects for the significance of IAV-acetylation interplay.

Abstract
High rates of cardiac fatty acid oxidation during reperfusion of ischemic hearts contribute to contractile dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate whether lysine acetylation affects fatty acid oxidation rates and recovery in post-ischemic hearts. Isolated working hearts from Sprague Dawley rats were perfused with 1.2 mM palmitate and 5 mM glucose and subjected to 30 min of ischemia and 40 min of reperfusion. Cardiac function, fatty acid oxidation, glucose oxidation, and glycolysis rates were compared between pre- and post-ischemic hearts. The acetylation status of enzymes involved in cardiac energy metabolism was assessed in both groups. Reperfusion after ischemia resulted in only a 41% recovery of cardiac work. Fatty acid oxidation and glycolysis rates increased while glucose oxidation rates decreased. The contribution of fatty acid oxidation to ATP production and TCA cycle activity increased from 90 to 93% and from 94.9 to 98.3%, respectively, in post-ischemic hearts. However, the overall acetylation status and acetylation levels of metabolic enzymes did not change in response to ischemia and reperfusion. These findings suggest that acetylation may not contribute to the high rates of fatty acid oxidation and reduced glucose oxidation observed in post-ischemic hearts perfused with high levels of palmitate substrate.

Abstract
RNA methylation, an epigenetic modification that does not alter gene sequence, may be important to diverse biological processes. Protein regulators of RNA methylation include "writers," "erasers," and "readers," which respectively deposit, remove, and recognize methylated RNA. RNA methylation, particularly N6-methyladenosine (m6A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), N3-methylcytosine (m3C), N1-methyladenosine (m1A) and N7-methylguanosine (m7G), has been suggested as disease therapeutic targets. Despite advances in the structure and pharmacology of RNA methylation regulators that have improved drug discovery, regulating these proteins by various post-translational modifications (PTMs) has received little attention. PTM modifies protein structure and function, affecting all aspects of normal biology and pathogenesis, including immunology, cell differentiation, DNA damage repair, and tumors. It is becoming evident that RNA methylation regulators are also regulated by diverse PTMs. PTM of RNA methylation regulators induces their covalent linkage to new functional groups, hence modifying their activity and function. Mass spectrometry has identified many PTMs on protein regulators of RNA methylation. In this review, we describe the functions and PTM of protein regulators of RNA methylation and summarize the recent advances in the regulatory mode of human disease and its underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Kidney disease can be caused by various internal and external factors that have led to a continual increase in global deaths. Current treatment methods can alleviate but do not markedly prevent disease development. Further research on kidney disease has revealed the crucial function of epigenetics, especially acetylation, in the pathology and physiology of the kidney. Histone acetyltransferases (HATs), histone deacetylases (HDACs), and acetyllysine readers jointly regulate acetylation, thus affecting kidney physiological homoeostasis. Recent studies have shown that acetylation improves mechanisms and pathways involved in various types of nephropathy. The discovery and application of novel inhibitors and activators have further confirmed the important role of acetylation. In this review, we provide insights into the physiological process of acetylation and summarise its specific mechanisms and potential therapeutic effects on renal pathology.

Abstract
Tumor metabolic reprogramming and epigenetic modification work together to promote tumorigenesis and development. Protein lysine acetylation, which affects a variety of biological functions of proteins, plays an important role under physiological and pathological conditions. Here, through immunoprecipitation and mass spectrum data, we show that phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5) deacetylation enhances malic enzyme 1 (ME1) metabolic enzyme activity to promote lipid synthesis and proliferation of liver cancer cells. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that the deacetylase SIRT2 mediates PGAM5 deacetylation to activate ME1 activity, leading to ME1 dephosphorylation, subsequent lipid accumulation and the proliferation of liver cancer cells. Taken together, our study establishes an important role for the SIRT2-PGAM5-ME1 axis in the proliferation of liver cancer cells, suggesting a potential innovative cancer therapy.

Guo X, Zhou Q, Jin J, Lan F, Wen C, Li J, Yang N, Sun C. Hepatic steatosis is associated with dysregulated cholesterol metabolism and altered protein acetylation dynamics in chickens. J Anim Sci Biotechnol 2023; 14:108. [PMID: 37568219 PMCID: PMC10422840 DOI: 10.1186/s40104-023-00910-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic steatosis is a prevalent manifestation of fatty liver, that has detrimental effect on the health and productivity of laying hens, resulting in economic losses to the poultry industry. Here, we aimed to systematically investigate the genetic regulatory mechanisms of hepatic steatosis in laying hens. METHODS Ninety individuals with the most prominent characteristics were selected from 686 laying hens according to the accumulation of lipid droplets in the liver, and were graded into three groups, including the control, mild hepatic steatosis and severe hepatic steatosis groups. A combination of transcriptome, proteome, acetylome and lipidome analyses, along with bioinformatics analysis were used to screen the key biological processes, modifications and lipids associated with hepatic steatosis. RESULTS The rationality of the hepatic steatosis grouping was verified through liver biochemical assays and RNA-seq. Hepatic steatosis was characterized by increased lipid deposition and multiple metabolic abnormalities. Integration of proteome and acetylome revealed that differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) interacted with differentially acetylated proteins (DAPs) and were involved in maintaining the metabolic balance in the liver. Acetylation alterations mainly occurred in the progression from mild to severe hepatic steatosis, i.e., the enzymes in the fatty acid oxidation and bile acid synthesis pathways were significantly less acetylated in severe hepatic steatosis group than that in mild group (P < 0.05). Lipidomics detected a variety of sphingolipids (SPs) and glycerophospholipids (GPs) were negatively correlated with hepatic steatosis (r ≤ -0.5, P < 0.05). Furthermore, the severity of hepatic steatosis was associated with a decrease in cholesterol and bile acid synthesis and an increase in exogenous cholesterol transport. CONCLUSIONS In addition to acquiring a global and thorough picture of hepatic steatosis in laying hens, we were able to reveal the role of acetylation in hepatic steatosis and depict the changes in hepatic cholesterol metabolism. The findings provides a wealth of information to facilitate a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology of fatty liver and contributes to the development of therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Post-translational modification (PTM) has a significant impact on cellular signaling and function regulation. In pancreatic β cells, PTMs are involved in insulin secretion, cell development, and viability. The dysregulation of PTM in β cells is clinically associated with the development of diabetes mellitus. Here, we summarized current findings on major PTMs occurring in β cells and their roles in insulin secretion. Our work provides comprehensive insight into understanding the mechanisms of insulin secretion and potential therapeutic targets for diabetes from the perspective of protein PTMs.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a widespread infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), which has been a significant burden for a long time. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are essential for protein function in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. This review focuses on the contribution of protein acetylation to the function of M. tb and its infected macrophages. The acetylation of M. tb proteins plays a critical role in virulence, drug resistance, regulation of metabolism, and host anti-TB immune response. Similarly, the PTMs of host proteins induced by M. tb are crucial for the development, treatment, and prevention of diseases. Host protein acetylation induced by M. tb is significant in regulating host immunity against TB, which substantially affects the disease's development. The review summarizes the functions and mechanisms of M. tb acetyltransferase in virulence and drug resistance. It also discusses the role and mechanism of M. tb in regulating host protein acetylation and immune response regulation. Furthermore, the current scenario of isoniazid usage in M. tb therapy treatment is examined. Overall, this review provides valuable information that can serve as a preliminary basis for studying pathogenic research, developing new drugs, exploring in-depth drug resistance mechanisms, and providing precise treatment for TB.

Abstract
The ever-increasing prevalence of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) represents a major public health burden worldwide. The most common form of NCD is metabolic diseases, which affect people of all ages and usually manifest their pathobiology through life-threatening cardiovascular complications. A comprehensive understanding of the pathobiology of metabolic diseases will generate novel targets for improved therapies across the common metabolic spectrum. Protein posttranslational modification (PTM) is an important term that refers to biochemical modification of specific amino acid residues in target proteins, which immensely increases the functional diversity of the proteome. The range of PTMs includes phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation, neddylation, glycosylation, palmitoylation, myristoylation, prenylation, cholesterylation, glutathionylation, S-nitrosylation, sulfhydration, citrullination, ADP ribosylation, and several novel PTMs. Here, we offer a comprehensive review of PTMs and their roles in common metabolic diseases and pathological consequences, including diabetes, obesity, fatty liver diseases, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis. Building upon this framework, we afford a through description of proteins and pathways involved in metabolic diseases by focusing on PTM-based protein modifications, showcase the pharmaceutical intervention of PTMs in preclinical studies and clinical trials, and offer future perspectives. Fundamental research defining the mechanisms whereby PTMs of proteins regulate metabolic diseases will open new avenues for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the costliest health problems and ranks second in cancer-related mortality in developed countries. With the aid of proteomics, many protein biomarkers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and precise management of CRC have been identified. Furthermore, some protein biomarkers exhibit structural diversity after modifications. Post-translational modifications (PTMs), most of which are catalyzed by a variety of enzymes, extensively increase protein diversity and are involved in many complex and dynamic cellular processes through the regulation of protein function. Accumulating evidence suggests that abnormal PTM events are associated with a variety of human diseases, such as CRC, thus highlighting the need for studying PTMs to discover both the molecular mechanisms and therapeutic targets of CRC. In this review, we begin with a brief overview of the importance of protein PTMs, discuss the general strategies for proteomic profiling of several key PTMs (including phosphorylation, acetylation, glycosylation, ubiquitination, methylation, and citrullination), shift the emphasis to describing the specific methods used for delineating the global landscapes of each of these PTMs, and summarize the recent applications of these methods to explore the potential roles of the PTMs in CRC. Finally, we discuss the current status of PTM research on CRC and provide future perspectives on how PTM regulation can play an essential role in translational medicine for early diagnosis, prognosis stratification, and therapeutic intervention in CRC.

Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a lifelong reproductive, metabolic, and psychiatric disorder that affects 5-18% of women, which is associated with a significantly increased lifetime risk of concomitant diseases, including type 2 diabetes, psychiatric disorders, and gynecological cancers. Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) play an important role in changes in protein function and are necessary to maintain cellular viability and biological processes, thus their maladjustment can lead to disease. Growing evidence suggests the association between PCOS and posttranslational modifications. This article mainly reviews the research status of phosphorylation, methylation, acetylation, and ubiquitination, as well as their roles and molecular mechanisms in the development of PCOS. In addition, we briefly summarize research and clinical trials of PCOS therapy to advance our understanding of agents that can be used to target phosphorylated, methylated, acetylated, and ubiquitinated PTM types. It provides not only ideas for future research on the mechanism of PCOS but also ideas for PCOS treatments with therapeutic potential.
