Ischemia challenged epicardial adipose tissue stem cells-derived extracellular vesicles alter the gene expression of cardiac fibroblasts to cardiomyocyte like phenotype. Transl Res 2023; 254:54-67. [PMID: 36273744 DOI: 10.1016/j.trsl.2022.10.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
The present study hypothesizes that the ischemic insults activate epicardial adipose tissue-derived stem cells (EATDS) to secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs) packed with regenerative mediators to alter the gene expression in cardiac fibroblasts (CF). EATDS and CF were isolated from hyperlipidemic microswine and EVs were harvested from control, simulated ischemia (ISC) and ischemia-reperfusion (ISC/R) groups. The in vitro interaction between ISC-EVs and CF resulted in the upregulation of cardiomyocyte-specific transcription factors including GATA4, Nkx2.5, IRX4, and TBX5 in CF and the healing marker αSMA and the downregulation of fibroblast biomarkers such as vimentin, FSP1, and podoplanin and the cardiac biomarkers such as troponin-I and connexin-43. These results suggest a cardiomyocyte-like phenotype as confirmed by immunostaining and Western blot. The LC-MS/MS analysis of ISC-EVs LGALS1, PRDX2, and CCL2 to be the potent protein mediators which are intimately involved in versatile regenerative processes and connected with a diverse array of regenerative genes. Moreover, the LGALS1+, PRDX2+, and CCL2+ EATDS phenotypes were deciphered at single cell resolution revealing corresponding sub-populations with superior healing potential. Overall, the findings unveiled the healing potential of EATDS-derived EVs and sub-populations of regenerative EATDS promising novel translational opportunities in improved cardiac healing following ischemic injury.

J Trace Elem Med Biol 2022; 73:127011. [PMID: 35716648 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2022.127011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 04/20/2022] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocelular carcinoma is one of the leading cancer types with no effective cure as poor prognosis is still a challenging aspect. Thus, alternative therapeutics are necessary to control hepatocelular carcinoma. Boron derivatives such as boric acid (BA), sodium perborate tetrahydrate (SPT) and sodium pentaborate pentahydrate (NaB) have been discovered to have anti-cancer effect. This study investigated the anti-proliferative effects of SPT against hepatocelular carcinoma (HCC) using in vitro and transcriptome approaches. METHODS Cytotoxic level of SPT on cell survival were detected using MTS assay. The apoptotic cell death and cell cycle arrest was determined using Annexin V/PI and cell cycle assay, respectively. Transcriptome analysis was performed using RNA-seq, followed by functional and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. qPCR was used to validate the different genes. RESULTS SPT treated HepG2 and Hep3B cells induced cytotoxicity having IC50 values of 1.13 mM and 0.91 mM, respectively. SPT caused mitotic arrest in G0/G1 phase at 48 h and subsequent apoptotic cell death. RNA-seq revealed a total number of 822 and 1075 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) which after SPT treatment in HepG2 and Hep3B cells, respectively. Functional and KEGG pathway enrichment results suggested that there are several genes involved to induce apoptosis related pathways. The DEGs in p53 signaling pathway may have closely relationships to the cells apoptosis caused by SPT treatment. qPCR results validated dynamic changes in p53 signaling pathway, DNA replication and cell cycle related genes, such as CDKN1A, SERPINE1, PMAIP1, MCM3, MCM5 and MCM6. CONCLUSION In vitro experiments and RNA-seq analysis show anti-proliferative and apoptotic effect of SPT in HCC cells. Further studies might help in understanding the molecular mechanisms of SPT.

Abstract
Redox homeostasis is elemental for the normal physiology of all cell types. Cells use multiple mechanisms to regulate the redox balance tightly. The onset and progression of many metabolic and aging-associated diseases occur due to the dysregulation of redox homeostasis. Thus, it is critical to identify and therapeutically target mechanisms that precipitate abnormalities in redox balance. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced within the immune cells regulate homeostasis, hyperimmune and hypoimmune cell responsiveness, apoptosis, immune response to pathogens, and tumor immunity. Immune cells have both cytosolic and organelle-specific redox regulatory systems to maintain appropriate levels of ROS. Nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (NNT) is an essential mitochondrial redox regulatory protein. Dysregulation of NNT function prevents immune cells from mounting an adequate immune response to pathogens, promotes a chronic inflammatory state associated with aging and metabolic diseases, and initiates conditions related to a dysregulated immune system such as autoimmunity. While many studies have reported on NNT in different cell types, including cancer cells, relatively few studies have explored NNT in immune cells. This review provides an overview of NNT and focuses on the current knowledge of NNT in the immune cells.

Peroxiredoxins-The Underrated Actors during Virus-Induced Oxidative Stress. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10060977.

Abstract
Enhanced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) triggered by various stimuli, including viral infections, has attributed much attention in the past years. It has been shown that different viruses that cause acute or chronic diseases induce oxidative stress in infected cells and dysregulate antioxidant its antioxidant capacity. However, most studies focused on catalase and superoxide dismutases, whereas a family of peroxiredoxins (Prdx), the most effective peroxide scavengers, were given little or no attention. In the current review, we demonstrate that peroxiredoxins scavenge hydrogen and organic peroxides at their physiological concentrations at various cell compartments, unlike many other antioxidant enzymes, and discuss their recycling. We also provide data on the regulation of their expression by various transcription factors, as they can be compared with the imprint of viruses on transcriptional machinery. Next, we discuss the involvement of peroxiredoxins in transferring signals from ROS on specific proteins by promoting the oxidation of target cysteine groups, as well as briefly demonstrate evidence of nonenzymatic, chaperone, functions of Prdx. Finally, we give an account of the current state of research of peroxiredoxins for various viruses. These data clearly show that Prdx have not been given proper attention despite all the achievements in general redox biology.

Identification of a Sesquiterpene Lactone from Arctium lappa Leaves with Antioxidant Activity in Primary Human Muscle Cells. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26051328.

Abstract
Many pathologies affecting muscles (muscular dystrophies, sarcopenia, cachexia, renal insufficiency, obesity, diabetes type 2, etc.) are now clearly linked to mechanisms involving oxidative stress. In this context, there is a growing interest in exploring plants to find new natural antioxidants to prevent the appearance and the development of these muscle disorders. In this study, we investigated the antioxidant properties of Arctium lappa leaves in a model of primary human muscle cells exposed to H2O2 oxidative stress. We identified using bioassay-guided purification, onopordopicrin, a sesquiterpene lactone as the main molecule responsible for the antioxidant activity of A. lappa leaf extract. According to our findings, onopordopicrin inhibited the H2O2-mediated loss of muscle cell viability, by limiting the production of free radicals and abolishing DNA cellular damages. Moreover, we showed that onopordopicrin promoted the expression of the nuclear factor-erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) downstream target protein heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in muscle cells. By using siRNA, we demonstrated that the inhibition of the expression of Nrf2 reduced the protective effect of onopordopicrin, indicating that the activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway mediates the antioxidant effect of onopordopicrin in primary human muscle cells. Therefore, our results suggest that onopordopicrin may be a potential therapeutic molecule to fight against oxidative stress in pathological specific muscle disorders.

Freezing stress adaptations: Critical elements to activate Nrf2 related antioxidant defense in liver and skeletal muscle of the freeze tolerant wood frogs. Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol 2021; 254:110573.

Abstract
Wood frogs (Rana sylvatica) can survive seasonal exposure to subzero temperatures. During freeze/thaw, the frogs confront oxidative stress due to concurrent stress conditions of anoxia, ischemia and dehydration. Wood frogs also need to cope with additional oxidative stress associated with hyperglycemia due to accumulation of the cryoprotectant glucose. Here we explore the transcription factor Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2) and Nrf2 related antioxidant enzymes in liver and skeletal muscle of wood frogs undergoing freeze/thaw and glucose injection. Nrf2 binding activity to DNA was assessed and GSK3β, an upstream regulator of Nrf2, and gsta1, a downstream gene under Nrf2 control, were also evaluated. A multiplex protein assay was used to analyze multiple Nrf2 related antioxidant enzymes. Elevated DNA binding activity was observed in frozen frogs as compared to unfrozen controls for both liver and skeletal muscle. Interestingly, high glucose also enhanced binding to the ARE (antioxidant response element) in vitro in unfrozen frogs for both tissues. However, high blood glucose concentration failed to stimulate Nrf2 dependent gsta1 gene expression in glucose loaded frogs, although this was observed in liver of frozen frogs. A multiplex protein assay revealed that Prdx2 responded robustly in both tissues, decreasing in liver but rising in muscle. Glucose loaded frogs showed tissue specific suppression of catalase, Prdx2 (Peroxiredoxin-2) and SOD2 (superoxide dismutase 2) in liver and of Prdx2 alone in muscle. Our study further extended our understanding of the roles of Nrf2 dependent antioxidant defenses in wood frog freezing survival.

Abstract
Muscle progenitor cells (MPCs) in aged muscle exhibit impaired activation into proliferating myoblasts, thereby impairing fusion and changes in secreted factors. The antihyperglycemic drug metformin, currently studied as a candidate antiaging therapy, may have potential to promote function of aged MPCs. We evaluated the impact of 2 wk of metformin ingestion on primary myoblast function measured in vitro after being extracted from muscle biopsies of older adult participants. MPCs were isolated from muscle biopsies of community-dwelling older (4 male/4 female, ∼69 yr) adult participants before (pre) and after (post) the metformin ingestion period and studied in vitro. Cells were extracted from Young participants (4 male/4 female, ∼27 yr) to serve as a "youthful" comparator. MPCs from Old subjects had lower fusion index and myoblast-endothelial cell homing compared with Young, while Old MPCs, extracted after short-term metformin ingestion, performed better at both tasks. Transcriptomic analyses of Old MPCs (vs. Young) revealed decreased histone expression and increased myogenic pathway activity, yet this phenotype was partially restored by metformin. However, metformin ingestion exacerbated pathways related to inflammation signaling. Together, this study demonstrated that 2 wk of metformin ingestion induced persistent effects on Old MPCs that improved function in vitro and altered their transcriptional signature including histone and chromatin remodeling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common gastrointestinal malignancies with a significant mortality rate. Despite the great advances in cancer treatment in the last few decades, effective treatment of CRC is still under challenge. One of the main problems associated with CRC treatment is the resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapy drugs. METHODS Many studies have been carried out to identify CRC chemoresistance mechanisms, and shed light on the role of ATP-binding cassette transporters (ABC transporters), enzymes as thymidylate synthase, some signaling pathways, and cancer stem cells (CSC) in chemoresistance and failed CRC chemotherapies. Other studies have also been recently carried out to find solutions to overcome chemoresistance. Some of these studies have identified the role of miRNAs in chemoresistance of the CRC cells and the effective use of these micro-molecules to CRC treatment. RESULTS Considering the results of these studies, more focus on miRNAs likely leads to a proper solution to overcome CRC chemoresistance. CONCLUSION The current study has reviewed the related literature while discussing the efficacy of miRNAs as potential clinical tools for overcoming CRC chemoresistance and reviewing the most important chemoresistance mechanisms in CRC cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a high incidence and mortality that epitomizes one of the prominent causes of cancer-related death globally. Novel therapeutic approaches are therefore required. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are necessary for maintaining cell cycle. Although ROS is involved in HCC progression, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has anti-proliferative effect on HCC. METHOD HCC Huh-7 cells were cultured and incubated with various concentrations of H2O2. Paraoxonase activity, levels of malondialdehyde, glutathione and protein oxidation were measured in treated and untreated Huh-7 cells. Furthermore, untreated and treated Huh-7 cells were subjected to two dimensional gel electrophoresis and identified protein spots which were differentially expressed by LC-MS/MS analysis. qRT-PCR was performed to validate the identified proteins. RESULTS H2O2 depleted glutathione (GSH) with the concomitant up-regulation of GSTP1 and Prx2. H2O2 also increased malondialdehyde and protein oxidation, decreased the activity of paraoxonase in Huh-7 cells. CONCLUSION H2O2 could be used as a novel therapeutic agent that might be beneficial in inducing cell cytotoxicity and hence suppress HCC proliferation.

Abstract
Overnutrition and sedentary activity reinforce the growing trend of worldwide obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. However, we have limited insight into how food intake generates sophisticated metabolic perturbations associated with obesity. Accumulation of mitochondrial oxidative stress contributes to the metabolic changes in obesity, but the mechanisms and significance are unclear. In white adipose tissue (WAT), mitochondrial oxidative stress, and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) impact the endocrine and metabolic function of fat cells. The central role of mitochondria in nutrient handling suggests pharmacological targeting of pathological oxidative stress likely improves the metabolic profile of obesity. This review will summarize the critical pathogenic mechanisms of obesity-driven oxidative stress in WAT.

Abstract
Prolonged activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and sustained increase of glucocorticoids have been evidenced in major depression and are related to changes involving neurotrophins and markers of oxidative stress in response to inflammation. This study aimed to evaluate central measures of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), oxidative damage and total antioxidant capacity in rats submitted to chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS), as well as to investigate the relationship between BDNF levels and differentially processes. For this purpose, male Wistar rats were submitted to CUMS for six weeks. Based on a sucrose preference test (SPT), the animals were divided into anhedonic or non-anhedonic clusters. Afterwards, forced swim test (FST) and open field test (OFT) were performed, and the animals were euthanized. Brain tissue was collected, followed by quantification of oxidative damage, total antioxidant capacity and BDNF levels. Anhedonic behavior was evidenced in stress-susceptible animals through decreased sucrose preference. No differences were found in FST or OFT results. We observed increased BDNF levels in the hippocampus (HPC) of animals exposed to the CUMS protocol, accompanied by decreased total antioxidant capacity, despite the absence of oxidative damage to lipids and proteins. Moreover, we used a bioinformatics approach to identify proteins involved in oxidative stress and inflammation pathways, which were differentially expressed in anhedonic animals from other studies with similar experimental protocol. expressed proteins (DEP) involved in oxidative stress and inflammatory biological Anhedonic behavior was associated with peroxiredoxin-1 (PRDX-1) up-regulation and down-regulation of proteins involved with apoptotic and inflammation signaling (RELA, ASK-1 and TAK-1) in the HPC. Taken together, these data suggest that BDNF and PRDX-1 might be involved in initial stress response, playing a compensatory role by preventing oxidative damage to lipids and proteins through the modulation of antioxidant defense after CUMS in anhedonic animals.

Abstract
Transgenic adenocarcinoma of the mouse prostate (TRAMP) mice is a widely used transgenic animal model of prostate cancer (PCa). We performed a label-free quantitative proteomics analysis combined with a bioinformatics analysis on the entire prostate protein extraction from TRAMP mice and compared it with WT littermates. From 2379 total identified proteins, we presented a modest mice prostate reference proteome containing 919 proteins. 61 proteins presented a significant expression difference between two groups. The integrative bioinformatics analysis predicted the overexpression of platelet-derived growth factor B (PDGF-B) in tumor tissues and supports the hypothesis of the PDGF-B signaling network as a key upstream regulator in PCa progression. Furthermore, we demonstrated that Crenolanib, a novel PDGF receptor inhibitor, inhibited PCa cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Finally, we revealed the importance of PDGF-B regulatory network in PCa progression, which will assist us in understanding the role and mechanisms of PDGF-B in promoting cancer growth and provide valuable knowledge for future research on anti-PDGF therapy.

Abstract
miR-25, a member of the miR-106b-25 cluster, has been reported as playing an important role in many biological processes by numerous studies, while the role of miR-25 in metabolism and its transcriptional regulation mechanism remain unclear. In this study, gain-of-function and loss-of-function assays demonstrated that miR-25-3p positively regulated the metabolism of C2C12 cells by attenuating phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) gene expression and triglyceride (TG) content, and enhancing the content of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Furthermore, the results from bioinformatics analysis, dual luciferase assay, site-directed mutagenesis, qRT-PCR, and Western blotting demonstrated that miR-25-3p directly targeted the AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (Akt1) 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR). The core promoter of miR-25-3p was identified, and the transcription factor activator protein-2α (AP-2α) significantly increased the expression of mature miR-25-3p by binding to its core promoter in vivo, as indicated by the chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay, and AP-2α binding also downregulated the expression of Akt1. Taken together, our findings suggest that miR-25-3p, positively regulated by the transcription factor AP-2α, enhances C2C12 cell metabolism by targeting the Akt1 gene.

Peroxiredoxin 3 maintains the survival of endometrial cancer stem cells by regulating oxidative stress. Oncotarget 2017; 8:92788-92800.

Abstract
Cancer stem cell (CSC)-targeted therapy could reduce tumor growth, recurrence, and metastasis in endometrial cancer (EC). The mitochondria of CSCs have been recently found to be an important target for cancer treatment, but the mitochondrial features of CSCs and their regulators, which maintain mitochondrial function, remain unclear. Here, we investigated the mitochondrial properties of CSCs, and identified specific targets for eliminating CSCs in EC. We found that endometrial CSCs displayed higher mitochondrial membrane potential, Ca2+, reactive oxygen species, ATP levels, and oxygen consumption rates than non-CSCs. Further, we also verified that mitochondrial peroxiredoxin 3 (Prx3) was upregulated, and that it contributed to the survival of CSCs in EC. The knockdown of the Prx3 gene resulted not only in decreased sphere formation, but also reduced the viability of endometrial CSCs, by causing mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, we found that the forkhead box protein M1 (FoxM1), an important transcriptional factor, is overexpressed in patients with EC. FoxM1 expression correlates with elevated Prx3 expression levels, in agreement with the tumorigenic ability of Prx3 in endometrial CSCs. Taken together, our findings indicate that human endometrial CSCs have enhanced mitochondrial function compared to that of endometrial tumor cells. Endometrial CSCs show increased expression of the mitochondrial Prx3, which is required for the maintenance of mitochondrial function and survival, and is induced by FoxM1. Based on our findings, we believe that these proteins might represent valuable therapeutic targets and could provide new insights into the development of new therapeutic strategies for patients with endometrial cancer.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle shows high plasticity in response to external demand. Moreover, adult skeletal muscle is capable of complete regeneration after injury, due to the properties of muscle stem cells (MuSCs), the satellite cells, which follow a tightly regulated myogenic program to generate both new myofibers and new MuSCs for further needs. Although reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) have long been associated with skeletal muscle physiology, their implication in the cell and molecular processes at work during muscle regeneration is more recent. This review focuses on redox regulation during skeletal muscle regeneration. An overview of the basics of ROS/RNS and antioxidant chemistry and biology occurring in skeletal muscle is first provided. Then, the comprehensive knowledge on redox regulation of MuSCs and their surrounding cell partners (macrophages, endothelial cells) during skeletal muscle regeneration is presented in normal muscle and in specific physiological (exercise-induced muscle damage, aging) and pathological (muscular dystrophies) contexts. Recent advances in the comprehension of these processes has led to the development of therapeutic assays using antioxidant supplementation, which result in inconsistent efficiency, underlying the need for new tools that are aimed at precisely deciphering and targeting ROS networks. This review should provide an overall insight of the redox regulation of skeletal muscle regeneration while highlighting the limits of the use of nonspecific antioxidants to improve muscle function.

Abstract
Thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1) is a selenocysteine-containing protein involved in cellular redox homeostasis which is downregulated in skeletal muscle differentiation. Here we show that TrxR1 decrease occurring during myogenesis is functionally involved in the coordination of this cellular process. Indeed, TrxR1 depletion reduces myoblasts growth by inducing an early myogenesis -related gene expression pattern which includes myogenin and Myf5 up-regulation and Cyclin D1 decrease. On the contrary, the overexpression of TrxR1 during differentiation delays myogenic process, by negatively affecting the expression of Myogenin and MyHC. Moreover, we found that miR-23a and miR-23b - whose expression was increased in the early stage of C2C12 differentiation - are involved in the regulation of TrxR1 expression through their direct binding to the 3' UTR of TrxR1 mRNA. Interestingly, the forced inhibition of miR-23a and miR-23b during C2C12 differentiation partially rescues TrxR1 levels and delays the expression of myogenic markers, suggesting the involvement of miR-23 in myogenesis via TrxR1 repression. Taken together, our results depict for the first time a novel molecular axis, which functionally acts in skeletal muscle differentiation through the modulation of TrxR1 by miR-23.

Abstract
There is considerable evidence that the protein component of fresh pork makes a major contribution to tenderness. In particular, the proteomic profile can be linked to postmortem events including pH decline, tissue oxidation, and protein degradation. The objectives for this study were to determine differences in sarcoplasmic proteomes that contribute to tenderness variation in aged pork longissimus dorsi muscles (LM). A defined set of pork loins selected to be similar in pH, color, and lipid yet different in tenderness were used. Pork loins were assigned to tenderness groups based on their star probe values; a high star probe group (HSP; n=12 mean star probe 7.75 kg) and low star probe group (LPS; n=12 star probe 4.95 kg) Samples were selected for proteomic experiments based on star probe values, and selected samples were within specified ranges for ultimate pH (5.54-5.86), marbling score (1.0-3.0), and percent total lipid (1.61-3.37%). Two-dimensional difference in gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and mass spectrometry were used to examine sarcoplasmic protein abundance and potential modifications. Proteins spots that were significantly different across groups were selected for identification. Results from 2D-DIGE showed that HSP samples had significantly more abundant metabolic, stress response, and regulatory proteins in the sarcoplasmic fraction compared with LSP samples. The stress response protein peroxiredoxin-2 was more abundant in HSP samples as determined by 2D-DIGE ( ≤ 0.01; 2 spots) and western blot assay ( = 0.02). Low star probe samples showed significantly more degradation of the structural protein desmin in 2D-DIGE ( < 0.01) and western blot assay ( < 0.01). These results demonstrate that extreme proteolytic differences influenced measured tenderness of LSP and HSP samples and that soluble desmin and peroxiredoxin-2 may be used as biomarkers to differentiate between tough and tender aged pork products.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxin (Prdx) 2 is an antioxidant protein that utilizes its redox-sensitive cysteine groups to reduce hydrogen peroxide molecules and protect cells against oxidative damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, its function in trophoblasts at the maternal-fetal interface has not been clarified yet. In this study, significantly lower Prdx2 expression was found in the first-trimester villous cytotrophoblasts of patients with recurrent miscarriage (RM) than in cytotrophoblasts from healthy controls. Further, Prdx2 knockdown inhibited proliferation and increased apoptosis of trophoblast cells. The reason for this may be an increase in the level of cellular ROS after knockdown of Prdx2, which may subsequently lead to an increase in the expression of phosphorylated p53 (p-p53) and p38-MAPK/p21. Prdx2 knockdown also impaired the fusion of BeWo cells induced by forskolin. Bioinformatics analysis identified a c-Myc-binding site in the Prdx2 promoter region, and chromatin immunoprecipitation verified that c-Myc directly bound to a site in this locus. Suppression and overexpression of c-Myc resulted in reduction and increase of Prdx2 expression respectively. Furthermore, we demonstrated that c-Myc was downregulated in the first-trimester cytotrophoblasts of patients with RM, and its downregulation is also related with inhibited cell proliferation, increased apoptosis, as well as upregulated p21 expression and p-p53/p53 ratio. Our findings indicate that Prdx2 might have an important role in the regulation of trophoblast proliferation and apoptosis during early pregnancy, and that its expression is mediated by c-Myc. Thus, these two proteins may be involved in the pathogenesis of RM and may represent potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is an inherited myopathy affecting approximately 1 in 7500 individuals worldwide. It is a progressive disease characterised by skeletal muscle weakness and wasting. A genetic mutation on the 4q35 chromosome results in the expression of the double homeobox 4 gene (DUX4) which drives oxidative stress, inflammation, toxicity, and atrophy within the skeletal muscle. FSHD is characterised by oxidative stress, and there is currently no cure and a lack of therapies for the disease. Antioxidants have been researched for many years, with investigators aiming to use antioxidants therapeutically for oxidative stress-associated diseases. This has included both natural and synthetic antioxidants. The use of antioxidants in preclinical or clinical models has been largely successful with a plethora of research reporting positive results. However, when translated to clinical trials, the use of antioxidants as a therapeutic intervention for a variety of disease has been largely unsuccessful. Moreover, specifically focusing on FSHD, limited research has been conducted on the use of antioxidants as a therapy in either preclinical or clinical models. This review summarises the current state of antioxidant use in the treatment of FSHD and discusses their potential avenue for therapeutic use for FSHD patients.

Abstract
AIMS Doxorubicin (DOX) is a chemotherapeutic drug that is used to treat many cancers, but its use is limited by cardiotoxic side effect. Carbonyl reductase 1 (CBR1) is an NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase that reduces DOX to doxorubicinol (DOXOL), a less potent derivative that is responsible for DOX cardiotoxicity. Thus, we aimed to demonstrate that inhibition of CBR1 enhances the chemotherapeutic efficacy of DOX and attenuates cardiotoxicity. RESULTS Pharmacological or genetic inhibition of CBR1 improved the anticancer effects of DOX in preclinical models of breast cancer. RNA interference or chemical inhibition of CBR1 improved the anticancer effect of DOX in breast cancer. Moreover, CBR1 overexpression enabled breast cancer cells to obtain chemotherapeutic resistance to DOX treatment. Intriguingly, inhibition of CBR1 decreased DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in animal model. Innovation and Conclusions: Inhibition of CBR1 increases chemotherapeutic efficacy of DOX and reduces cardiotoxicity by blocking DOX reduction to DOXOL. Therefore, we offer preclinical proof-of-concept for a combination strategy to safely leverage the efficacy of doxorubicin by blunting its cardiotoxic effects that limit use of this cytotoxic agent used widely in the oncology clinic.

Peroxiredoxin-2 nitrosylation facilitates cardiomyogenesis of mouse embryonic stem cells via XBP-1s/PI3K pathway. Free Radic Biol Med 2016; 97:179-191. [PMID: 27261193 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2016.05.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2016] [Revised: 05/10/2016] [Accepted: 05/28/2016] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Protein nitrosylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification in almost all biological systems. However, its function on stem cell biology is so far incompletely understood. Here, we demonstrated that peroxiredoxin 2 (Prdx-2) nitrosylation was involved in cardiomyocyte differentiation of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells induced by S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO). We found that temporary GSNO exposure could promote ES cell-derived cardiomyogenesis. Using a stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)-based proteomics approach, coupled with biotin switch technique, a total of 104 nitrosylated proteins were identified. Specifically, one of the antioxidant enzymes, Prdx-2, was abundantly nitrosylated and temporarily reduced in antioxidant activity, causing transient endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) accumulation and subsequent X-box binding protein-1s/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway activation. The present study reveals the mechanism in which GSNO favors cardiomyocyte differentiation. Prdx-2 nitrosylation could be a potent strategy to affect the pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyogenesis.

Wadley AJ, Aldred S, Coles SJ. An unexplored role for Peroxiredoxin in exercise-induced redox signalling? Redox Biol 2016; 8:51-8. [PMID: 26748042 PMCID: PMC4712319 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2015.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2015] [Revised: 10/13/2015] [Accepted: 10/19/2015] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Peroxiredoxin (PRDX) is a ubiquitous oxidoreductase protein with a conserved ionised thiol that permits catalysis of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) up to a million times faster than any thiol-containing signalling protein. The increased production of H2O2 within active tissues during exercise is thought to oxidise conserved cysteine thiols, which may in turn facilitate a wide variety of physiological adaptations. The precise mechanisms linking H2O2 with the oxidation of signalling thiol proteins (phosphates, kinases and transcription factors) are unclear due to these proteins' low reactivity with H2O2 relative to abundant thiol peroxidases such as PRDX. Recent work has shown that following exposure to H2O2 in vitro, the sulfenic acid of the PRDX cysteine can form mixed disulphides with transcription factors associated with cell survival. This implicates PRDX as an 'active' redox relay in transmitting the oxidising equivalent of H2O2 to downstream proteins. Furthermore, under oxidative stress, PRDX can form stable oxidised dimers that can be secreted into the extracellular space, potentially acting as an extracellular 'stress' signal. There is extensive literature assessing non-specific markers of oxidative stress in response to exercise, however the PRDX catalytic cycle may offer a more robust approach for measuring changes in redox balance following exercise. This review discusses studies assessing PRDX-mediated cellular signalling and integrates the recent advances in redox biology with investigations that have examined the role of PRDX during exercise in humans and animals. Future studies should explore the role of PRDX as a key regulator of peroxide mediated-signal transduction during exercise in humans.

Abstract
While myostatin gene deletion is a promising therapy to fight muscle loss during aging, this approach induces also skeletal muscle metabolic changes such as mitochondrial deficits, redox alteration and increased fatigability. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of aging on these features in aged wild-type (WT) and mstn knockout (KO) mice. Moreover, to determine whether an enriched-antioxidant diet may be useful to prevent age-related disorders, we orally administered to the two genotypes a melon concentrate rich in superoxide dismutase for 12 weeks. We reported that mitochondrial functional abnormalities persisted (decreased state 3 and 4 of respiration; p<0.05) in skeletal muscle from aged KO mice; however, differences with WT mice were attenuated at old age in line with reduced difference on running endurance between the two genotypes. Interestingly, we showed an increase in glutathione levels, associated with lower lipid peroxidation levels in KO muscle. Enriched antioxidant diet reduced the aging-related negative effects on maximal aerobic velocity and running limit time (p<0.05) in both groups, with systemic adaptations on body weight. The redox status and the hypertrophic phenotype appeared to be beneficial to KO mice, mitigating the effect of aging on the skeletal muscle metabolic remodeling.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated in skeletal muscle both during the rest and contractile activity. Myogenic cells are equipped with antioxidant enzymes, like superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and heme oxygenase-1. These enzymes not only neutralise excessive ROS, but also affect myogenic regeneration at several stages: influence post-injury inflammatory reaction, enhance viability and proliferation of muscle satellite cells and myoblasts and affect their differentiation. Finally, antioxidant enzymes regulate also processes accompanying muscle regeneration-induce angiogenesis and reduce fibrosis. Elevated ROS production was also observed in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a disease characterised by degeneration of muscle tissue and therefore-increased rate of myogenic regeneration. Antioxidant enzymes are consequently considered as target for therapies counteracting dystrophic symptoms. In this review we present current knowledge regarding the role of oxidative stress and systems of enzymatic antioxidant defence in muscular regeneration after both acute injury and persistent muscular degeneration.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxin6 (Prdx6) is one of the peroxiredoxin (Prdxs) family members that play an important role in maintaining cell homeostasis. Our previous studies demonstrated that Prdx6 was significantly associated with pig meat quality, especially meat tenderness. However, the transcriptional regulation of porcine Prdx6 remains unclear. In this study, we determined the transcription start site (TSS) of porcine Prdx6 gene by 5' rapid-amplification of cDNA ends (5' RACE). Several regulatory elements including CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteinβ (C/EBPβ), Myogenic Differentiation (MyoD), cAMP response element binding protein (CREB), stimulating protein1 (Sp1) and heat shock factor (HSF) binding sites were found by computational analyses together with luciferase reporter system. Overexpression and RNA interference experiments showed that C/EBPβ or CREB could up-regulate the expression of porcine Prdx6 gene at both mRNA and protein level. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays (ChIP) confirmed that C/EBPβ and CREB could interact with Prdx6 promoter. Immuoprecipitation results also showed that C/EBPβ could interact with Prdx6 in vivo. Taken together, our findings identified C/EBPβ and CREB as the important regulators of porcine Prdx6 gene expression, and offered clues for further investigation of Prdx6 gene function.

Abstract
AIMS β-Thalassemia is a common inherited red cell disorder characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis and severe oxidative stress. Peroxiredoxin-2 (Prx2), a typical 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin, is upregulated during β-thalassemic erythropoiesis, but its contribution to stress erythropoiesis, a common feature of thalassemia, is yet to be fully defined. RESULTS Here, we showed that Prx2(-/-) mice displayed reactive oxygen species related abnormalities in erythropoiesis similar to that of Hbb(th3/+) mice associated with activation of redox response transcriptional factor nuclear factor-erythroid 2 (Nrf2). We generated β-thalassemic mice genetically lacking Prx2 (Prx2(-/-)Hbb(th3/+)) and documented a worsened β-thalassemic hematological phenotype with severe ineffective erythropoiesis. To further validate a key role of Prx2 in stress erythropoiesis, we administrated fused recombinant PEP1Prx2 to Hbb(th3/+) mice and documented a decrease in ineffective erythropoiesis. We further show that Prx2 effects are mediated by activation of Nrf2 and upregulation of genes that protect against oxidative damage such as gluthatione S-transferase, heme-oxygenase-1, and NADPH dehydrogenase quinone-1. INNOVATION We propose Prx2 as a key antioxidant system and Nrf2 activation is a cellular adaptive process in response to oxidative stress, resulting in upregulation of antioxidant (antioxidant responsive element) genes required to ensure cell survival. CONCLUSION Our data shed new light on adaptive mechanisms against oxidative damage through the interplay of Prx2 and Nrf2 during stress erythropoiesis and suggest new therapeutic options to decrease ineffective erythropoiesis by modulation of endogenous antioxidant systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Reagents designed to target cancer stem cells (CSCs) could reduce tumor growth, recurrence, and metastasis. We investigated the mitochondrial features of CSCs. METHODS Colon adenocarcinoma fragments were obtained from 8 patients during surgery at Busan Paik Hospital in Korea. We used immunohistochemistry and quantitative polymerase chain reaction to compare expression of mitochondrial peroxiredoxin 3 (PRX3) in CD133(+)CD44(+) Lgr5(+)cells (CSCs) vs CD133(-)CD44(-)Lgr5(-) colon tumor cells (non-CSCs). Cell survival and expression of mitochondrial-related genes were analyzed in the presence of 5-fluorouracil and/or antimycin A. We used small-interfering and short-hairpin RNAs and an overexpression vector to study PRX3, which functions in the mitochondria. CD133(+) cells with PRX3 knockdown or overexpressing PRX3 were grown as xenograft tumors in immunocompromised mice. Metastasis was studied after injection of tumor cells in spleens of mice. We used chromatin immunoprecipitation and reporter assays to characterize transcriptional regulation of PRX3 by forkhead box protein 1. RESULTS CSCs had a higher mitochondrial membrane potential and increased levels of adenosine triphosphate, Ca(2+), reactive oxygen species, and oxygen consumption than non-CSCs. Levels of PRX3 were increased in colon CSCs compared with non-CSCs. PRX3 knockdown reduced the viability of CSCs, but non non-CSCs, by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction. PRX3 knockdown reduced growth of CSCs as xenograft tumors or metastases in mice. The expression of FOXM1 activated transcription of PRX3 and expression of CD133 in colon CSCs. CONCLUSIONS Human colon CSCs have increased mitochondrial function compared with colon tumor cells without stem cell properties. Colon CSCs overexpress the mitochondrial gene PRX3, which is required for maintenance of mitochondrial function and tumorigenesis, and is regulated by forkhead box protein 1, which also regulates expression of CD133 in these cells. These proteins might be therapeutic targets for colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are maintained by their somatic stem cells and are responsible for tumor initiation, chemoresistance, and metastasis. Evidence for the CSCs existence has been reported for a number of human cancers. The CSC mitochondria have been shown recently to be an important target for cancer treatment, but clinical significance of CSCs and their mitochondria properties remain unclear. Mitochondria-targeted agents are considerably more effective compared to other agents in triggering apoptosis of CSCs, as well as general cancer cells, via mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondrial metabolism is altered in cancer cells because of their reliance on glycolytic intermediates, which are normally destined for oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore, inhibiting cancer-specific modifications in mitochondrial metabolism, increasing reactive oxygen species production, or stimulating mitochondrial permeabilization transition could be promising new therapeutic strategies to activate cell death in CSCs as well, as in general cancer cells. This review analyzed mitochondrial function and its potential as a therapeutic target to induce cell death in CSCs. Furthermore, combined treatment with mitochondria-targeted drugs will be a promising strategy for the treatment of relapsed and refractory cancer.

Abstract
Increased level of oxidative stress, a major actor of cellular aging, impairs the regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle and leads to the reduction in the number and size of muscle fibers causing sarcopenia. Caveolin 1 is the major component of caveolae, small membrane invaginations involved in signaling and endocytic trafficking. Their role has recently expanded to mechanosensing and to the regulation of oxidative stress-induced pathways. Here, we increased the amount of reactive oxidative species in myoblasts by addition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at non-toxic concentrations. The expression level of caveolin 1 was significantly decreased as early as 10 min after 500 μM H2O2 treatment. This reduction was not observed in the presence of a proteasome inhibitor, suggesting that caveolin 1 was rapidly degraded by the proteasome. In spite of caveolin 1 decrease, caveolae were still able to assemble at the plasma membrane. Their functions however were significantly perturbed by oxidative stress. Endocytosis of a ceramide analog monitored by flow cytometry was significantly diminished after H2O2 treatment, indicating that oxidative stress impaired its selective internalization via caveolae. The contribution of caveolae to the plasma membrane reservoir has been monitored after osmotic cell swelling. H2O2 treatment increased membrane fragility revealing that treated cells were more sensitive to an acute mechanical stress. Altogether, our results indicate that H2O2 decreased caveolin 1 expression and impaired caveolae functions. These data give new insights on age-related deficiencies in skeletal muscle.

Peroxiredoxin 3 has a crucial role in the contractile function of skeletal muscle by regulating mitochondrial homeostasis. Free Radic Biol Med 2014; 77:298-306.

Abstract
Antioxidant systems against reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important factors in regulating homeostasis in various cells, tissues, and organs. Although ROS are known to cause to muscular disorders, the effects of mitochondrial ROS in muscle physiology have not been fully understood. Here, we investigated the effects of ROS on muscle mass and function using mice deficient in peroxiredoxin 3 (Prx3), which is a mitochondrial antioxidant protein. Ablation of Prx3 deregulated the mitochondrial network and membrane potential of myotubes, in which ROS levels were increased. We showed that the DNA content of mitochondria and ATP production were also reduced in Prx3-KO muscle. Of note, the mitofusin 1 and 2 protein levels decreased in Prx3-KO muscle, a biochemical evidence of impaired mitochondrial fusion. Contractile dysfunction was examined by measuring isometric forces of isolated extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscles. Maximum absolute forces in both the EDL and the soleus muscles were not significantly affected in Prx3-KO mice. However, fatigue trials revealed that the decrease in relative force was greater and more rapid in soleus from Prx3-KO compared to wild-type mice. Taken together, these results suggest that Prx3 plays a crucial role in mitochondrial homeostasis and thereby controls the contractile functions of skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Mirk kinase is a gene upregulated and sometimes amplified in pancreatic cancers and in ovarian cancers, but expressed at very low levels in most normal diploid cells except for skeletal muscle. The muscle cell function of Mirk kinase selected for by cancer cells is unknown. It is now shown that Mirk protein is expressed at low levels and is largely nuclear in cycling skeletal muscle C2C12 myoblasts, but is translocated to the cytoplasm and upregulated when myoblasts initiate differentiation, as shown by immunofluorescence staining and by cell fractionation. Either Mirk depletion or Mirk kinase inhibition increased ROS levels in cycling C2C12 myoblasts. However, Mirk protein is localized in the cytoplasm of mature muscle fibers, specifically in the fast twitch fibers of human skeletal muscle where toxic ROS levels are generated by muscle contraction. C2C12 myoblasts at high density in differentiation media fuse to form differentiated postmitotic myotubes that can contract. A Mirk kinase inhibitor induced a dose-dependent increase in ROS in this model for fast twitch fibers of human skeletal muscle. Efficient Mirk depletion in SU86.86 pancreatic cancer cells by an inducible shRNA decreased expression of eight antioxidant genes. Thus both cancer cells and differentiated myotubes utilize Mirk kinase to relieve oxidative stress.

Abstract
Abstract
Redox balance has been suggested as an important determinant of “stemness” in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). In this study, we demonstrate that peroxiredoxin (Prx) plays a pivotal role in maintenance of ESC stemness during neurogenesis through suppression of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive signaling. During neurogenesis, Prx I and Oct4 are expressed in a mutually dependent manner and their expression is abruptly downregulated by an excess of ROS. Thus, in Prx I−/− or Prx II−/− ESCs, rapid loss of stemness can occur due to spontaneous ROS overload, leading to their active commitment into neurons; however, stemness is restored by the addition of an antioxidant or an inhibitor of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). In addition, Prx I and Prx II appear to have a tight association with the mechanism underlying the protection of ESC stemness in developing teratomas. These results suggest that Prx functions as a protector of ESC stemness by opposing ROS/JNK cascades during neurogenesis. Therefore, our findings have important implications for understanding of maintenance of ESC stemness through involvement of antioxidant enzymes and may lead to development of an alternative stem cell-based therapeutic strategy for production of high-quality neurons in large quantity.

Regulation of the human thioredoxin gene promoter and its key substrates: a study of functional and putative regulatory elements. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2013; 1840:303-14.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The thioredoxin system maintains redox balance through the action of thioredoxin and thioredoxin reductase. Thioredoxin regulates the activity of various substrates, including those that function to counteract cellular oxidative stress. These include the peroxiredoxins, methionine sulfoxide reductase A and specific transcription factors. Of particular relevance is Redox Factor-1, which in turn activates other redox-regulated transcription factors. SCOPE OF REVIEW Experimentally defined transcription factor binding sites in the human thioredoxin and thioredoxin reductase gene promoters together with promoters of the major thioredoxin system substrates involved in regulating cellular redox status are discussed. An in silico approach was used to identify potential putative binding sites for these transcription factors in all of these promoters. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Our analysis reveals that many redox gene promoters contain the same transcription factor binding sites. Several of these transcription factors are in turn redox regulated. The ARE is present in several of these promoters and is bound by Nrf2 during various oxidative stress stimuli to upregulate gene expression. Other transcription factors also bind to these promoters during the same oxidative stress stimuli, with this redundancy supporting the importance of the antioxidant response. Putative transcription factor sites were identified in silico, which in combination with specific regulatory knowledge for that gene promoter may inform future experiments. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Redox proteins are involved in many cellular signalling pathways and aberrant expression can lead to disease or other pathological conditions. Therefore understanding how their expression is regulated is relevant for developing therapeutic agents that target these pathways.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most common and aggressive primary brain malignancy, is incurable despite the best combination of current cancer therapies. For the development of more effective therapies, discovery of novel candidate tumor drivers is urgently needed. Here, we report that peroxiredoxin 4 (PRDX4) is a putative tumor driver. PRDX4 levels were highly increased in a majority of human GBMs as well as in a mouse model of GBM. Reducing PRDX4 expression significantly decreased GBM cell growth and radiation resistance in vitro with increased levels of ROS, DNA damage, and apoptosis. In a syngenic orthotopic transplantation model, Prdx4 knockdown limited GBM infiltration and significantly prolonged mouse survival. These data suggest that PRDX4 can be a novel target for GBM therapies in the future.

Abstract
Human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) cells protect the brain against ischemic injury, yet the mechanism of protection remains unclear. Using both in vitro and in vivo paradigms, this study examined the role of Akt signaling and peroxiredoxin 4 expression in human umbilical cord blood cell-mediated protection of oligodendrocytes from ischemic conditions. As previously reported, the addition of HUCB cells to oligodendrocyte cultures prior to oxygen glucose deprivation significantly enhanced oligodendrocyte survival. The presence of human umbilical cord blood cells also increased Akt phosphorylation and elevated peroxiredoxin 4 expression in oligodendrocytes. Blocking either Akt or peroxiredoxin 4 activity with Akt Inhibitor IV or a peroxiredoxin 4-neutralizing antibody, respectively, negated the protective effects of human umbilical cord blood cells. In vivo, systemic administration of human umbilical cord blood cells 48 h after middle cerebral artery occlusion increased Akt phosphorylation and peroxiredoxin 4 protein expression while reducing proteolytic cleavage of caspase 3 in oligodendrocytes residing in the ipsilateral external capsule. Moreover, human umbilical cord blood cells protected striatal white matter bundles from degeneration following middle cerebral artery occlusion. These results suggest that the soluble factors released from human umbilical cord blood cells converge on Akt to elevate peroxiredoxin 4 levels, and these effects contribute to oligodendrocyte survival.
