Abstract
Pyroptosis, a novel programmed cell death mediated by NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, is a critical pathogenic process in acute viral myocarditis (AVMC). Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) is predominantly expressed in myocardial tissues and has been reported to exert cardioprotective effects through multiple pathways. Herein, we aimed to investigate the biological function of MG53 in AVMC and its underlying regulatory mechanism in pyroptosis. BALB/c mice and HL-1 cells were infected with Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) to establish animal and cellular models of AVMC. As inflammation progressed in the myocardium, we found a progressive decrease in myocardial MG53 expression, accompanied by a significant enhancement of cardiomyocyte pyroptosis. MG53 overexpression significantly alleviated myocardial inflammation, apoptosis, fibrosis, and mitochondrial damage, thereby improving cardiac dysfunction in AVMC mice. Moreover, MG53 overexpression inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis, reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β/18) release, and suppressed NF-κB signaling pathway activation both in vivo and in vitro. Conversely, MG53 knockdown reduced cell viability, facilitated cell pyroptosis, and increased pro-inflammatory cytokines release in CVB3-infected HL-1 cells by promoting NF-κB activation. These effects were partially reversed by applying the NF-κB inhibitor BAY 11-7082. In conclusion, our results suggest that MG53 acts as a negative regulator of NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis in CVB3-induced AVMC, partially by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway. MG53 is a promising candidate for clinical applications in AVMC treatment.

Abstract
Dysferlin is a 237 kDa membrane-associated protein characterised by multiple C2 domains with a diverse role in skeletal and cardiac muscle physiology. Mutations in DYSF are known to cause various types of human muscular dystrophies, known collectively as dysferlinopathies, with some patients developing cardiomyopathy. A myriad of in vitro membrane repair studies suggest that dysferlin plays an integral role in the membrane repair complex in skeletal muscle. In comparison, less is known about dysferlin in the heart, but mounting evidence suggests that dysferlin's role is similar in both muscle types. Recent findings have shown that dysferlin regulates Ca2+ handling in striated muscle via multiple mechanisms and that this becomes more important in conditions of stress. Maintenance of the transverse (t)-tubule network and the tight coordination of excitation-contraction coupling are essential for muscle contractility. Dysferlin regulates the maintenance and repair of t-tubules, and it is suspected that dysferlin regulates t-tubules and sarcolemmal repair through a similar mechanism. This review focuses on the emerging complexity of dysferlin's activity in striated muscle. Such insights will progress our understanding of the proteins and pathways that regulate basic heart and skeletal muscle function and help guide research into striated muscle pathology, especially that which arises due to dysferlin dysfunction.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathies (CMs) are highly heterogeneous progressive heart diseases characterised by structural and functional abnormalities of the heart, whose intricate pathogenesis has resulted in a lack of effective treatment options. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also known as Tripartite motif protein 72 (TRIM72), is a tripartite motif family protein from the immuno-proteomic library expressed primarily in the heart and skeletal muscle. Recent studies have identified MG53 as a potential cardioprotective protein that may play a crucial role in CMs. Therefore, the objective of this review is to comprehensively examine the underlying mechanisms mediated by MG53 responsible for myocardial protection, elucidate the potential role of MG53 in various CMs as well as its dominant status in the diagnosis and prognosis of human myocardial injury, and evaluate the potential therapeutic value of recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) in CMs. It is expected to yield novel perspectives regarding the clinical diagnosis and therapeutic treatment of CMs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) is a membrane repair factor that is associated with acute myocardial infarction. This study aimed to investigate the effects of MG53 on cardiomyocyte injury and the posttranslational modification of MG53. METHODS Cardiomyocyte injury was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and flow cytometry. The succinylation and ubiquitination levels of MG53 were examined by immunoprecipitation (IP) and western blot. The relationship between MG53 and KAT3B or SIRT7 was assessed by co-IP and immunofluorescence. RESULTS The results showed that overexpression of MG53 inhibited inflammation response and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). Succinylation and protein levels of MG53 were downregulated in H/R-induced cells, which was inhibited by SIRT7 and promoted by KAT3B. SIRT7 aggravated and KAT3B alleviated MG53-mediated cardiomyocyte injury. Moreover, MG53 was succinylated and ubiquitinated at K130. CONCLUSION SIRT7 inhibited/KAT3B promoted succinylation of MG53 at K130 sites, which suppressed ubiquitination of MG53 and upregulated its protein levels, thereby alleviating H/R-induced cardiomyocyte injury. The findings suggested that MG53 may be a potential therapy for myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases represent a global health crisis, and understanding the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac pathology is crucial for developing effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Mitsugumin-53 (MG53) plays a pivotal role in cell membrane repair, has emerged as a multifaceted player in cardiovascular health. MG53, also known as TRIM72, is primarily expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscle and actively participates in membrane repair processes essential for maintaining cardiomyocyte viability. It promotes k-ion currents, ensuring action potential integrity, and actively engages in repairing myocardial and mitochondrial membranes, preserving cardiac function in the face of oxidative stress. This study discusses the dual impact of MG53 on cardiac health, highlighting its cardioprotective role during ischemia/reperfusion injury, its modulation of cardiac arrhythmias, and its influence on cardiomyopathy. MG53's regulation of metabolic pathways, such as lipid metabolism, underlines its role in diabetic cardiomyopathy, while its potential to mitigate the effects of various cardiac disorders, including those induced by antipsychotic medications and alcohol consumption, warrants further exploration. Furthermore, we examine MG53's diagnostic potential as a biomarker for cardiac injury. Research has shown that MG53 levels correlate with cardiomyocyte damage and may predict major adverse cardiovascular events, highlighting its value as a biomarker. Additionally, exogenous recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) emerges as a promising therapeutic option, demonstrating its ability to reduce infarct size, inhibit apoptosis, and attenuate fibrotic responses. In summary, MG53's diagnostic and therapeutic potential in cardiovascular diseases presents an exciting avenue for improved patient care and outcomes.

Cardiovasc Res 2023; 119:2421-2440. [PMID: 37527538 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvad123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2022] [Revised: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/03/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Regulated necrosis (necroptosis) and apoptosis are important biological features of myocardial infarction, ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, and heart failure. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying myocardial necroptosis remain elusive. Ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) is the most powerful intrinsic cardioprotection against myocardial I/R injury. In this study, we aimed to determine whether IPC suppresses I/R-induced necroptosis and the underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS We generated p55γ transgenic and knockout mice and used ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery to produce an in vivo I/R model. The effects of p55γ and its downstream molecules were subsequently identified using mass spectroscopy and co-immunoprecipitation and pulldown assays. We found that p55γ expression was down-regulated in failing human myocardium caused by coronary heart disease as well as in I/R mouse hearts. Cardiac-specific p55γ overexpression ameliorated the I/R-induced necroptosis. In striking contrast, p55γ deficiency (p55γ-/-) and cardiac-specific deletion of p55γ (p55γc-KO) worsened I/R-induced injury. IPC up-regulated p55γ expression in vitro and in vivo. Using reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, we found that Hif1α transcriptionally regulated p55γ expression and mediated the cardioprotection of IPC. IPC-mediated suppression of necroptosis was attenuated in p55γ-/- and p55γc-KO hearts. Mechanistically, p55γ overexpression decreased the protein levels of RIP3 rather than the mRNA levels, while p55γ deficiency increased the protein abundance of RIP3. IPC attenuated the I/R-induced up-regulation of RIP3, which was abolished in p55γ-deficient mice. Up-regulation of RIP3 attenuated the p55γ- or IPC-induced inhibition of necroptosis in vivo. Importantly, p55γ directly bound and degraded RIP3 in a ubiquitin-dependent manner. We identified MG53 as the E3 ligase that mediated the p55γ-induced degradation of RIP3. In addition, we also found that p55γ activated the RISK pathway during IPC. CONCLUSIONS Our findings reveal that activation of the MG53-RIP3 signal pathway by p55γ protects the heart against I/R-induced necroptosis and underlies IPC-induced cardioprotection.

Abstract
Tripartite Motif Protein 72 (TRIM72, also named MG53) mediates membrane damage repair through membrane fusion and exocytosis. During injury, TRIM72 molecules form intermolecular disulfide bonds in response to the oxidative environment and TRIM72 oligomers are proposed to connect vesicles to the plasma membrane and promote membrane fusion in conjunction with other partners like dysferlin and caveolin. However, the detailed mechanism of TRIM72 oligomerization and action remains unclear. Here we present the crystal structure of TRIM72 B-box-coiled-coil-SPRY domains (BCC-SPRY), revealing the molecular basis of TRIM72 oligomerization, which is closely linked to disulfide bond formation. Through structure-guided mutagenesis, we have identified and characterized key residues that are important for the membrane repair function of TRIM72. Our results also demonstrate that TRIM72 interacts with several kinds of negatively charged lipids in addition to phosphatidylserine. Our work provides a structural foundation for further mechanistic studies as well as the clinical application of TRIM72.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As an integral component of cell membrane repair machinery, MG53 (mitsugumin 53) is important for cardioprotection induced by ischemia preconditioning and postconditioning. However, it also impairs insulin signaling via its E3 ligase activity-mediated ubiquitination-dependent degradation of IR (insulin receptor) and IRS1 (insulin receptor substrate 1) and its myokine function-induced allosteric blockage of IR. Here, we sought to develop MG53 into a cardioprotection therapy by separating its detrimental metabolic effects from beneficial actions. METHODS Using immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry, site-specific mutation, in vitro kinase assay, and in vivo animal studies, we investigated the role of MG53 phosphorylation at serine 255 (S255). In particular, utilizing recombinant proteins and gene knock-in approaches, we evaluated the potential therapeutic effect of MG53-S255A mutant in treating cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury in diabetic mice. RESULTS We identified S255 phosphorylation as a prerequisite for MG53 E3 ligase activity. Furthermore, MG53S255 phosphorylation was mediated by GSK3β (glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta) and markedly elevated in the animal models with metabolic disorders. Thus, IR-IRS1-GSK3β-MG53 formed a vicious cycle in the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders where aberrant insulin signaling led to hyper-activation of GSK3β, which in turn, phosphorylated MG53 and enhanced its E3 ligase activity, and further impaired insulin sensitivity. Importantly, S255A mutant eliminated the E3 ligase activity while retained cell protective function of MG53. Consequently, the S255A mutant, but not the wild type MG53, protected the heart against ischemia/reperfusion injury in db/db mice with advanced diabetes, although both elicited cardioprotection in normal mice. Moreover, in S255A knock-in mice, S255A mutant also mitigated ischemia/reperfusion-induced myocardial damage in the diabetic setting. CONCLUSIONS S255 phosphorylation is a biased regulation of MG53 E3 ligase activity. The MG53-S255A mutant provides a promising approach for the treatment of acute myocardial injury, especially in patients with metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common clinical problem after coronary angioplasty, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and organ transplantation, which can lead to cell damage and death. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also known as Trim72, is a conservative member of the TRIM family and is highly expressed in mouse skeletal and cardiac muscle, with minimal amounts in humans. MG53 has been proven to be involved in repairing cell membrane damage. It has a protective effect on I/R injury in multiple oxygen-dependent organs, such as the heart, brain, lung, kidney, and liver. Recombinant human MG53 also plays a unique role in I/R, sepsis, and other aspects, which is expected to provide new ideas for related treatment. This article briefly reviews the pathophysiology of I/R injury and how MG53 mitigates multi-organ I/R injury.

MG53 preserves mitochondrial integrity of cardiomyocytes during ischemia reperfusion-induced oxidative stress. Redox Biol 2022; 54:102357. [PMID: 35679798 PMCID: PMC9178477 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2022.102357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Revised: 05/19/2022] [Accepted: 05/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Ischemic injury to the heart induces mitochondrial dysfunction due to increasing oxidative stress. MG53, also known as TRIM72, is highly expressed in striated muscle, is secreted as a myokine after exercise, and is essential for repairing damaged plasma membrane of many tissues by interacting with the membrane lipid phosphatidylserine (PS). We hypothesized MG53 could preserve mitochondrial integrity after an ischemic event by binding to the mitochondrial-specific lipid, cardiolipin (CL), for mitochondria protection to prevent mitophagy. Fluorescent imaging and Western blotting experiments showed recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) translocated to the mitochondria after ischemic injury in vivo and in vitro. Fluorescent imaging indicated rhMG53 treatment reduced superoxide generation in ex vivo and in vitro models. Lipid-binding assay indicated MG53 binds to CL. Transfecting cardiomyocytes with the mitochondria-targeted mt-mKeima showed inhibition of mitophagy after MG53 treatment. Overall, we show that rhMG53 treatment may preserve cardiac function by preserving mitochondria in cardiomyocytes. These findings suggest MG53's interactions with mitochondria could be an attractive avenue for developing MG53 as a targeted protein therapy for cardioprotection.

MG53 Inhibits Necroptosis Through Ubiquitination-Dependent RIPK1 Degradation for Cardiac Protection Following Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:868632.

Abstract
RationaleWhile reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been recognized as one of the main causes of cardiac injury following myocardial infarction, the clinical application of antioxidants has shown limited effects on protecting hearts against ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury. Thus, the precise role of ROS following cardiac injury remains to be fully elucidated.ObjectiveWe investigated the role of mitsugumin 53 (MG53) in regulating necroptosis following I/R injury to the hearts and the involvement of ROS in MG53-mediated cardioprotection.Methods and ResultsAntioxidants were used to test the role of ROS in MG53-mediated cardioprotection in the mouse model of I/R injury and induced human pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)-derived cardiomyocytes subjected to hypoxia or re-oxygenation (H/R) injury. Western blotting and co-immunoprecipitation were used to identify potential cell death pathways that MG53 was involved in. CRISPR/Cas 9-mediated genome editing and mutagenesis assays were performed to further identify specific interaction amino acids between MG53 and its ubiquitin E3 ligase substrate. We found that MG53 could protect myocardial injury via inhibiting the necroptosis pathway. Upon injury, the generation of ROS in the infarct zone of the hearts promoted interaction between MG53 and receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1). As an E3 ubiquitin ligase, MG53 added multiple ubiquitin chains to RIPK1 at the sites of K316, K604, and K627 for proteasome-mediated RIPK1 degradation and inhibited necroptosis. The application of N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) disrupted the interaction between MG53 and RIPK1 and abolished MG53-mediated cardioprotective effects.ConclusionsTaken together, this study provided a molecular mechanism of a potential beneficial role of ROS following acute myocardial infarction. Thus, fine-tuning ROS levels might be critical for cardioprotection.

Abstract
Background Myocarditis is a cardiomyopathy associated with the inflammatory response. Rosuvastatin (RS) demonstrates cardioprotective effect in the clinical setting, although its cellular and molecular mechanisms in ameliorating myocarditis are largely unknown. MG53 (muscle-specific E3 ligase Mitsugumin 53), a newly identified striated muscle-specific protein, is involved in skeletal muscle membrane repair. We aimed to explore whether RS mediated the repair of cardiomyocytes in an MG53-dependent manner. Methods The RS-induced upregulation of MG53 was determined using RT-qPCR and western blotting. A lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cell inflammatory model was constructed using rat cardiac muscle cell H9C2. Inflammatory injury was evaluated according to the alterations of cell viability, mitochondrial membrane potential, cell apoptosis, and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1). Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) were used to silence MG53. The cardioprotective effect of RS and the inhibition of this protection by MG53 silence were evaluated in the forementioned in vitro model. The underlying mechanism was finally investigated using western blotting to detected the expressions of apoptotic markers (Bcl-2, Bax, Cleaved caspase-9, Cleaved caspase-3), cell cycle regulatory factors (Cyclin A, Cyclin E1, Cyclin D1, CDK2), and components involved in NF-κB signaling pathway (p-IκBa, Iκba, p-p65, p65). Results RS ameliorated LPS-induced inflammatory injury. RS upregulated the expression of MG53. MG53 was crucial for the RS-mediated repair response in vitro. Ablation of MG53 inhibited the RS-mediated protective effect. Furthermore, RS and MG53 interact in multiple signaling pathways to modulate recovery. Conclusion RS exerts cardioprotective effect in an MG53-dependent manner. MG53 may serve as a novel drug target for myocarditis treatment.

Abstract
Cardiometabolic diseases, including diabetes and its cardiovascular complications, are the global leading causes of death, highlighting a major unmet medical need. Over the past decade, mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also called TRIM72, has emerged as a powerful agent for myocardial membrane repair and cardioprotection, but its therapeutic value is complicated by its E3 ligase activity, which mediates metabolic disorders. Here, we show that an E3 ligase-dead mutant, MG53-C14A, retains its cardioprotective function without causing metabolic adverse effects. When administered in normal animals, both the recombinant human wild-type MG53 protein (rhMG53-WT) and its E3 ligase-dead mutant (rhMG53-C14A) protected the heart equally from myocardial infarction and ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, in diabetic db/db mice, rhMG53-WT treatment markedly aggravated hyperglycemia, cardiac I/R injury, and mortality, whereas acute and chronic treatment with rhMG53-C14A still effectively ameliorated I/R-induced myocardial injury and mortality or diabetic cardiomyopathy, respectively, without metabolic adverse effects. Furthermore, knock-in of MG53-C14A protected the mice from high-fat diet-induced metabolic disorders and cardiac damage. Thus, the E3 ligase-dead mutant MG53-C14A not only protects the heart from acute myocardial injury but also counteracts metabolic stress, providing a potentially important therapy for the treatment of acute myocardial injury in metabolic disorders, including diabetes and obesity.

MG53 marks poor beta cell performance and predicts onset of type 2 diabetes in subjects with different degrees of glucose tolerance. DIABETES & METABOLISM 2021; 48:101292. [PMID: 34678488 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabet.2021.101292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2021] [Accepted: 10/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
AIM - MG53 is a myokine modulating insulin signalling in several tissues; its relationship to glucose tolerance or risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is unknown. This observational, prospective study aimed at evaluating the relationship between MG53 and glucose tolerance, testing whether its circulating levels may be associated with disease progression in a cohort at high risk of T2DM. METHODS - Five hundred and fifteen subjects who underwent a deep characterization of their glucose tolerance in the years 2003-2005 participated in this study. MG53 levels were measured at baseline. Glucose tolerance status was available over a follow-up of 15±2 years for 283 of them; their vital status as of December 2020 was also retrieved. RESULTS - MG53 levels were significantly lower in subjects with normal glucose tolerance than in subjects with impaired glucose regulation (IGR) or T2DM. Individuals in the highest MG53 levels quartile had more frequently 1h-post load glucose ≥155 mg/dL (54% vs 39%; p=0.015), worse proportional control of β-cell function (p<0.05-0.01), as determined by mathematical modelling, and worse Disposition Index (DI) (0.0155±0.0081 vs 0.0277±0.0030; p<0.0001). At follow-up, baseline MG53 levels were higher in progressors than in non-progressors (120.1±76.7 vs 72.7±63.2 pg/ml; p=0.001; ROC curve area for incident diabetes of 0.704). In a multivariable regression with classic risk factors for T2DM and DI, MG53 remained independently associated with progression with T2DM. CONCLUSION - MG53 may be a novel biomarker of glucose dysregulation associated with β-cell dysfunction, likely improving our ability to identify, among high-risk subjects, those more likely to develop T2DM.

Abstract
Aging is associated with chronic oxidative stress and inflammation that impact the tissue repair and regeneration capacity. MG53 is a TRIM family protein that facilitates repair of cell membrane injury in a redox-dependent manner. Here we demonstrate that the expression of MG53 is reduced in failing human heart and aging mouse heart, concomitant with elevated NFκB activation. We evaluate the safety and efficacy of longitudinal, systemic administration of recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) protein in aged mice. Echocardiography and pressure-volume loop measurements reveal beneficial effects of rhMG53 treatment in improving heart function of aging mice. Biochemical and histological studies demonstrate the cardioprotective effects of rhMG53 are linked to suppression of NFκB-mediated inflammation, reducing apoptotic cell death and oxidative stress in the aged heart. Repetitive administrations of rhMG53 in aged mice do not have adverse effects on major vital organ functions. These findings support the therapeutic value of rhMG53 in treating age-related decline in cardiac function.

Abstract
Heart disease remains the leading cause of mortality globally, so further investigation is required to identify its underlying mechanisms and potential targets for treatment and prevention. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also known as TRIM72, is a TRIM family protein that was found to be involved in cell membrane repair and primarily found in striated muscle. Its role in skeletal muscle regeneration and myogenesis has been well documented. However, accumulating evidence suggests that MG53 has a potentially protective role in heart tissue, including in ischemia/reperfusion injury of the heart, cardiomyocyte membrane injury repair, and atrial fibrosis. This review summarizes the regulatory role of MG53 in cardiac tissues, current debates regarding MG53 in diabetes and diabetic cardiomyopathy, as well as highlights potential clinical applications of MG53 in treating cardiac pathologies.

Abstract
AIMS The multi-C2 domain protein dysferlin localizes to the T-Tubule system of skeletal and heart muscles. In skeletal muscle, dysferlin is known to play a role in membrane repair and in T-tubule biogenesis and maintenance. Dysferlin deficiency manifests as muscular dystrophy of proximal and distal muscles. Cardiomyopathies have been also reported, and some dysferlinopathy mouse models develop cardiac dysfunction under stress. Generally, the role and functional relevance of dysferlin in the heart is not clear. The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of dysferlin deficiency on the transverse-axial tubule system (TATS) structure and on Ca2+ homeostasis in the heart. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied dysferlin localization in rat and mouse cardiomyocytes by immunofluorescence microscopy. In dysferlin-deficient ventricular mouse cardiomyocytes, we analysed the TATS by live staining and assessed Ca2+ handling by patch-clamp experiments and measurement of Ca2+ transients and Ca2+ sparks. We found increasing co-localization of dysferlin with the L-type Ca2+-channel during TATS development and show that dysferlin deficiency leads to pathological loss of transversal and increase in longitudinal elements (axialization). We detected reduced L-type Ca2+-current (ICa,L) in cardiomyocytes from dysferlin-deficient mice and increased frequency of spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release events resulting in pro-arrhythmic contractions. Moreover, cardiomyocytes from dysferlin-deficient mice showed an impaired response to β-adrenergic receptor stimulation. CONCLUSIONS Dysferlin is required for TATS biogenesis and maintenance in the heart by controlling the ratio of transversal and axial membrane elements. Absence of dysferlin leads to defects in Ca2+ homeostasis which may contribute to contractile heart dysfunction in dysferlinopathy patients.

Abstract
Cis-regulatory elements play important roles in tissue-specific gene expression and in the evolution of various phenotypes, and mutations in promoters and enhancers may be responsible for adaptations of species to environments. TRIM72 is a highly conserved protein that is involved in energy metabolism. Its expression in the heart varies considerably in primates, with high levels of expression in Old World monkeys and near absence in hominids. Here, we combine phylogenetic hypothesis testing and experimentation to demonstrate that mutations in promoter are responsible for the differences among primate species in the heart-specific expression of TRIM72. Maximum likelihood estimates of lineage-specific substitution rates under local-clock models show that relative to the evolutionary rate of introns, the rate of promoter was accelerated by 78% in the common ancestor of Old World monkeys, suggesting a role for positive selection in the evolution of the TRIM72 promoter, possibly driven by selective pressure due to changes in cardiac physiology after species divergence. We demonstrate that mutations in the TRIM72 promoter account for the differential myocardial TRIM72 expression of the human and the rhesus macaque. Furthermore, changes in TRIM72 expression alter the expression of genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation, which in turn affects mitochondrial respiration and cardiac energy capacity. On a broader timescale, phylogenetic regression analyses of data from 29 mammalian species show that mammals with high cardiac expression of TRIM72 have high heart rate, suggesting that the expression changes of TRIM72 may be related to differences in the heart physiology of those species.

MG53 is not a critical regulator of insulin signaling pathway in skeletal muscle. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0245179. [PMID: 33566837 PMCID: PMC7875368 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0245179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2020] [Accepted: 01/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
In type 2 diabetes (T2D), both muscle and liver are severely resistant to insulin action. Muscle insulin resistance accounts for more than 80% of the impairment in total body glucose disposal in T2D patients and is often characterized by an impaired insulin signaling. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), a muscle-specific TRIM family protein initially identified as a key regulator of cell membrane repair machinery has been suggested to be a critical regulator of muscle insulin signaling pathway by acting as ubiquitin E3 ligase targeting both the insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1). Here, we show using in vitro and in vivo approaches that MG53 is not a critical regulator of insulin signaling and glucose homeostasis. First, MG53 expression is not consistently regulated in skeletal muscle from various preclinical models of insulin resistance. Second, MG53 gene knock-down in muscle cells does not lead to impaired insulin response as measured by Akt phosphorylation on Serine 473 and glucose uptake. Third, recombinant human MG53 does not alter insulin response in both differentiated C2C12 and human skeletal muscle cells. Fourth, ectopic expression of MG53 in HEK293 cells lacking endogenous MG53 expression fails to alter insulin response as measured by Akt phosphorylation. Finally, both male and female mg53 -/- mice were not resistant to high fat induced obesity and glucose intolerance compared to wild-type mice. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that MG53 is not a critical regulator of insulin signaling pathway in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) involve chronic inflammation of skeletal muscle and subsequent muscle degeneration due to an uncontrolled autoimmune response; however, the mechanisms leading to pathogenesis are not well understood. A compromised sarcolemmal repair process could promote an aberrant exposure of intramuscular antigens with the subsequent initiation of an inflammatory response that contributes to IIM. Using an adoptive transfer mouse model of IIM, we show that sarcolemmal repair is significantly compromised in distal skeletal muscle in the absence of inflammation. We identified autoantibodies against TRIM72 (also known as MG53), a muscle-enriched membrane repair protein, in IIM patient sera and in our mouse model of IIM by ELISA. We found that patient sera with elevated levels of TRIM72 autoantibodies suppress sarcolemmal resealing in healthy skeletal muscle, and depletion of TRIM72 antibodies from these same serum samples rescues sarcolemmal repair capacity. Autoantibodies targeting TRIM72 lead to skeletal muscle fibers with compromised membrane barrier function, providing a continuous source of autoantigens to promote autoimmunity and further amplifying humoral responses. These findings reveal a potential pathogenic mechanism that acts as a feedback loop contributing to the progression of IIM.

Abstract
Under natural conditions, injured cells can be repaired rapidly through inherent biological processes. However, in the case of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, muscular dystrophy, and other degenerative conditions, the natural repair process is impaired. Repair of injury to the cell membrane is an important aspect of physiology. Inadequate membrane repair function is implicated in the pathophysiology of many human disorders. Recent studies show that Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), a TRIM family protein, plays a key role in repairing cell membrane damage and facilitating tissue regeneration. Clarifying the role of MG53 and its molecular mechanism are important for the application of MG53 in regenerative medicine. In this review, we analyze current research dissecting MG53′s function in cell membrane repair and tissue regeneration, and highlight the development of recombinant human MG53 protein as a potential therapeutic agent to repair multiple-organ injuries.

Abstract
Background: Mitsugumin 53 or Tripartite motif 72 (MG53/TRIM72), a myokine/cardiokine belonging to the tripartite motif family, can protect the heart from ischemic injury and regulate lipid metabolism in rodents. However, its biological function in humans remains unclear. This study sought to investigate the relationship between circulating MG53 levels and coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: The concentration of MG53 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in serum samples from 639 patients who underwent angiography, including 205 controls, 222 patients with stable CAD, and 212 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Logistic and linear regression analyses were used to analyze the relationship between MG53 and CAD. Results: MG53 levels were increased in patients with stable CAD and were highest in patients with AMI. Additionally, patients with comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes also had a higher concentration of MG53. We found that MG53 is a significant diagnostic marker of CAD and AMI, as analyzed by logistic regression models. Multivariate linear regression models revealed that serum MG53 was significantly corelated positively with SYNTAX scores. Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) scores also correlated with serum MG53 levels, indicating that MG53 levels were associated with the severity of CAD and AMI after adjusting for multiple risk factors and clinical biomarkers. Conclusion: MG53 is a valuable diagnostic marker whose serum levels correlate with the presence and severity of stable CAD and AMI, and may represent a novel biomarker for diagnosing CAD and indicating the severity of CAD.

Abstract
The MG53 (also known as TRIM72) is a conserved, muscle-specific tripartite motif family protein that is abundantly expressed in cardiac or skeletal muscle and present in circulation. Recently, the MG53 had been hypothesized to serve a dual role in the heart: involving in repairing cell membranes that protect myocardial function while acting as an E3 ligase to trigger insulin resistance and cardiovascular complications. This review discusses the roles of MG53 in cardiac physiological function with emphasis on MG53 protective function in the heart and its negative impact on the myocardium due to the continuous elevation of MG53. Besides, this work reviewed the significance of MG53 as a potential therapeutic in human cardiovascular diseases. Despite the expression of MG53 being rare in the human, thus exogenous MG53 can potentially be a new treatment for human cardiovascular diseases. Notably, the specific mechanism of MG53 in cardiovascular diseases remains elusive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is the most powerful intrinsic protection against cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury. Previous studies have shown that a multifunctional TRIM family protein, MG53 (mitsugumin 53; also called TRIM72), not only plays an essential role in IPC-mediated cardioprotection against ischemia/reperfusion injury but also ameliorates mechanical damage. In addition to its intracellular actions, as a myokine/cardiokine, MG53 can be secreted from the heart and skeletal muscle in response to metabolic stress. However, it is unknown whether IPC-mediated cardioprotection is causally related to MG53 secretion and, if so, what the underlying mechanism is. METHODS Using proteomic analysis in conjunction with genetic and pharmacological approaches, we examined MG53 secretion in response to IPC and explored the underlying mechanism using rodents in in vivo, isolated perfused hearts, and cultured neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes. Moreover, using recombinant MG53 proteins, we investigated the potential biological function of secreted MG53 in the context of IPC and ischemia/reperfusion injury. RESULTS We found that IPC triggered robust MG53 secretion in rodents in vivo, perfused hearts, and cultured cardiac myocytes without causing cell membrane leakage. Mechanistically, IPC promoted MG53 secretion through H2O2-evoked activation of protein kinase-C-δ. Specifically, IPC-induced myocardial MG53 secretion was mediated by H2O2-triggered phosphorylation of protein kinase-C-δ at Y311, which is necessary and sufficient to facilitate MG53 secretion. Functionally, systemic delivery of recombinant MG53 proteins to mimic elevated circulating MG53 not only restored IPC function in MG53-deficient mice but also protected rodent hearts from ischemia/reperfusion injury even in the absence of IPC. Moreover, oxidative stress by H2O2 augmented MG53 secretion, and MG53 knockdown exacerbated H2O2-induced cell injury in human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, despite relatively low basal expression of MG53 in human heart. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that IPC and oxidative stress can trigger MG53 secretion from the heart via an H2O2-protein kinase-C-δ-dependent mechanism and that extracellular MG53 can participate in IPC protection against cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Ubiquitination is one of the basic mechanisms of cell protein homeostasis and degradation and is accomplished by 3 enzymes, E1, E2, and E3. Tripartite motif-containing proteins (TRIMs) constitute the largest subfamily of RING E3 ligases, with >70 current members in humans and mice. These members are involved in multiple biological processes, including growth, differentiation, and apoptosis as well as disease and tumorigenesis. Accumulating evidence has shown that many TRIM proteins are associated with various cardiac processes and pathologies, such as heart development, signal transduction, protein degradation, autophagy mediation, ion channel regulation, congenital heart disease, and cardiomyopathies. In this review, we provide an overview of the TRIM family and discuss its involvement in the regulation of cardiac proteostasis and pathophysiology and its potential therapeutic implications.

Abstract
Various injuries to the neural tissues can cause irreversible damage to multiple functions of the nervous system ranging from motor control to cognitive function. The limited treatment options available for patients have led to extensive interest in studying the mechanisms of neuronal regeneration and recovery from injury. Since many neurons are terminally differentiated, by increasing cell survival following injury it may be possible to minimize the impact of these injuries and provide translational potential for treatment of neuronal diseases. While several cell types are known to survive injury through plasma membrane repair mechanisms, there has been little investigation of membrane repair in neurons and even fewer efforts to target membrane repair as a therapy in neurons. Studies from our laboratory group and others demonstrated that mitsugumin 53 (MG53), a muscle-enriched tripartite motif (TRIM) family protein also known as TRIM72, is an essential component of the cell membrane repair machinery in skeletal muscle. Interestingly, recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) can be applied exogenously to increase membrane repair capacity both in vitro and in vivo. Increasing the membrane repair capacity of neurons could potentially minimize the death of these cells and affect the progression of various neuronal diseases. In this study we assess the therapeutic potential of rhMG53 to increase membrane repair in cultured neurons and in an in vivo mouse model of neurotrauma. We found that a robust repair response exists in various neuronal cells and that rhMG53 can increase neuronal membrane repair both in vitro and in vivo. These findings provide direct evidence of conserved membrane repair responses in neurons and that these repair mechanisms can be targeted as a potential therapeutic approach for neuronal injury.

Abstract
Background The aortic valve of the heart experiences constant mechanical stress under physiological conditions. Maladaptive valve injury responses contribute to the development of valvular heart disease. Here, we test the hypothesis that MG 53 (mitsugumin 53), an essential cell membrane repair protein, can protect valvular cells from injury and fibrocalcific remodeling processes associated with valvular heart disease. Methods and Results We found that MG 53 is expressed in pig and human patient aortic valves and observed aortic valve disease in aged Mg53-/- mice. Aortic valves of Mg53-/- mice showed compromised cell membrane integrity. In vitro studies demonstrated that recombinant human MG 53 protein protects primary valve interstitial cells from mechanical injury and that, in addition to mediating membrane repair, recombinant human MG 53 can enter valve interstitial cells and suppress transforming growth factor-β-dependent activation of fibrocalcific signaling. Conclusions Together, our data characterize valve interstitial cell membrane repair as a novel mechanism of protection against valvular remodeling and assess potential in vivo roles of MG 53 in preventing valvular heart disease.

Abstract
Ferlins are multiple-C2-domain proteins involved in Ca2+-triggered membrane dynamics within the secretory, endocytic and lysosomal pathways. In bony vertebrates there are six ferlin genes encoding, in humans, dysferlin, otoferlin, myoferlin, Fer1L5 and 6 and the long noncoding RNA Fer1L4. Mutations in DYSF (dysferlin) can cause a range of muscle diseases with various clinical manifestations collectively known as dysferlinopathies, including limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) and Miyoshi myopathy. A mutation in MYOF (myoferlin) was linked to a muscular dystrophy accompanied by cardiomyopathy. Mutations in OTOF (otoferlin) can be the cause of nonsyndromic deafness DFNB9. Dysregulated expression of any human ferlin may be associated with development of cancer. This review provides a detailed description of functions of the vertebrate ferlins with a focus on muscle ferlins and discusses the mechanisms leading to disease development.

Abstract
Arginine-specific mono-adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribosylation is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)+-dependent, reversible post-translational modification involving the transfer of an ADP-ribose from NAD+ by bacterial toxins and eukaryotic ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs) to arginine on an acceptor protein or peptide. ADP-ribosylarginine hydrolase 1 (ARH1) catalyzes the cleavage of the ADP-ribose-arginine bond, regenerating (arginine)protein. Arginine-specific mono-ADP-ribosylation catalyzed by bacterial toxins was first identified as a mechanism of disease pathogenesis. Cholera toxin ADP-ribosylates and activates the α subunit of Gαs, a guanine nucleotide-binding protein that stimulates adenylyl cyclase activity, increasing cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), and resulting in fluid and electrolyte loss. Arginine-specific mono-ADP-ribosylation in mammalian cells has potential roles in membrane repair, immunity, and cancer. In mammalian tissues, ARH1 is a cytosolic protein that is ubiquitously expressed. ARH1 deficiency increased tumorigenesis in a gender-specific manner. In the myocardium, in response to cellular injury, an arginine-specific mono-ADP-ribosylation cycle, involving ART1 and ARH1, regulated the level and cellular distribution of ADP-ribosylated tripartite motif-containing protein 72 (TRIM72). Confirmed substrates of ARH1 in vivo are Gαs and TRIM72, however, more than a thousand proteins, ADP-ribosylated on arginine, have been identified by proteomic analysis. This review summarizes the current understanding of the properties of ARH1, e.g., bacterial toxin action, myocardial membrane repair following injury, and tumorigenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitsugumin 53 (MG53 or TRIM72), a striated muscle-specific E3 ligase, promotes ubiquitin-dependent degradation of the insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrate-1 and subsequently induces insulin resistance, resulting in metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, it is unknown how MG53 from muscle regulates systemic insulin response and energy metabolism. Increasing evidence demonstrates that muscle secretes proteins as myokines or cardiokines that regulate systemic metabolic processes. We hypothesize that MG53 may act as a myokine/cardiokine, contributing to interorgan regulation of insulin sensitivity and metabolic homeostasis. METHODS Using perfused rodent hearts or skeletal muscle, we investigated whether high glucose, high insulin, or their combination (conditions mimicking metabolic syndrome or T2DM) alters MG53 protein concentration in the perfusate. We also measured serum MG53 levels in rodents and humans in the presence or absence of metabolic diseases, particularly T2DM. The effects of circulating MG53 on multiorgan insulin response were evaluated by systemic delivery of recombinant MG53 protein to mice. Furthermore, the potential involvement of circulating MG53 in the pathogenesis of T2DM was assessed by neutralizing blood MG53 with monoclonal antibodies in diabetic db/db mice. Finally, to delineate the mechanism underlying the action of extracellular MG53 on insulin signaling, we analyzed the potential interaction of MG53 with extracellular domain of insulin receptor using coimmunoprecipitation and surface plasmon resonance assays. RESULTS Here, we demonstrate that MG53 is a glucose-sensitive myokine/cardiokine that governs the interorgan regulation of insulin sensitivity. First, high glucose or high insulin induces MG53 secretion from isolated rodent hearts and skeletal muscle. Second, hyperglycemia is accompanied by increased circulating MG53 in humans and rodents with diabetes mellitus. Third, systemic delivery of recombinant MG53 or cardiac-specific overexpression of MG53 causes systemic insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome in mice, whereas neutralizing circulating MG53 with monoclonal antibodies has therapeutic effects in T2DM db/db mice. Mechanistically, MG53 binds to the extracellular domain of the insulin receptor and acts as an allosteric blocker. CONCLUSIONS Thus, MG53 has dual actions as a myokine/cardiokine and an E3 ligase, synergistically inhibiting the insulin signaling pathway. Targeting circulating MG53 opens a new therapeutic avenue for T2DM and its complications.

Abstract
Coronary heart diseases are of high relevance for health care systems in developed countries regarding patient numbers and costs. Disappointingly, the enormous effort put into the development of innovative therapies and the high numbers of clinical studies conducted are counteracted by the low numbers of therapies that become clinically effective. Evidently, pre-clinical research in its present form does not appear informative of the performance of treatments in the clinic and, even more relevant, it appears that there is hardly any consent about how to improve the predictive capacity of pre-clinical experiments. According to the steadily increasing relevance that pig models have gained in biomedical research in the recent past, we anticipate that research in pigs can be highly predictive for ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) therapies as well. Thus, we here describe the significance of pig models in IRI, give an overview about recent developments in evaluating such models by clinically relevant methods and present the latest insight into therapies applied to pigs under IRI.

Abstract
Large bowel adenocarcinoma is one of the most frequent human neoplasms and despite recent insights into the pathophysiology and molecular basis of this disease, mortality remains high in advanced and metastatic cases. Most guidelines recommend adjuvant chemotherapy for tumours involving lymph nodes, but not for patients with localized stage I or II disease. However, it is well known that approximately 20% of stage II colorectal carcinoma patients eventually recur, mainly with distant or peritoneal involvement and show bad prognosis. It would be important to predict which patients are at increased risk of recurrence to guide potential adjuvant therapy use in this controversial setting. In this sense, only microsatellite stability has been proposed as a predictive tool in some guidelines. The tripartite motif family protein 72 (TRIM72) is a ubiquitin ligase, involved in the cell membrane repair machinery and known to be associated to insulin resistance. Its potential role in colon cancer has recently been proposed. The aim of this study is to determine the potential predictive value of TRIM72 immunohistochemical expression in stage II colon carcinoma. We have retrospectively reviewed a series of 95 patients with stage II colon microsatellite stable carcinomas operated with a curative intent at a single large tertiary hospital in Madrid (Spain) between 2006 and 2012. None of the patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. We reviewed the histopathological slides and constructed a tissue microarray (TMA) of three representative areas to perform immunohistochemical staining for TRIM72. In our series 30 patients (31.7%) recurred after a median follow-up of 17.5 months. Lack of immunohistochemical expression of TRIM72 in the tumor was significantly and independently associated to recurrence. A recent report by Chen et al. has shown that TRIM72 can be measured in plasma for colon carcinoma detection as an alternative to CEA or CA19.9, with lower levels in patients with carcinoma. Our report is the first one to show that lower immunohistochemical expression of TRIM72 predicts recurrence in colon stage II carcinoma. We feel this predictive influence can be related to its crucial role as a central regulator in many signaling pathways (PI3K-AKT, ERK). As an ubiquitin ligase, the lack of TRIM72 could increase the levels of several potential oncogenic molecules and therefore lead to a more aggressive phenotype. It remains to be shown whether chemotherapy could change the clinical behaviour of this bad prognosis group. We propose TRIM72 immunohistochemical analysis as a potential tool to predict recurrence risk in stage II colon carcinoma patients. Our results should be confirmed in larger series, but could open the way to management strategies refinement in this early stage group of patients.

Abstract
Cardiac fibrosis is a pathophysiological process characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix. We developed a cardiac hypertrophy model using transverse aortic constriction (TAC) to uncover mechanisms relevant to excessive deposition of extracellular matrix in mouse myocardial cells. TAC caused upregulation of Tripartite motif protein 72 (TRIM72), a tripartite motif-containing protein that is critical for proliferation and migration. Importantly, in vivo silencing of TRIM72 reversed TAC-induced cardiac fibrosis, as indicated by markedly increased left ventricular systolic pressure and decreased left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. TRIM72 knockdown also attenuated deposition of fibrosis marker collagen type I and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). In an in vitro study, TRIM72 was similarly upregulated in cardiac fibroblasts. Knockdown of TRIM72 markedly suppressed collagen type I and α-SMA expression and significantly decreased the proliferation and migration of cardiac fibroblasts. However, TRIM72 overexpression markedly increased collagen type I and α-SMA expression and increased the proliferation and migration of cardiac fibroblasts. Further study demonstrated that TRIM72 increased phosphorylated STAT3 in cardiac fibroblasts. TRIM72 knockdown in cardiac fibroblasts resulted in increased expression of Notch ligand Jagged-1 and its downstream gene and Notch-1 intracellular domain. Inhibition of Notch-1 abrogated sh-TRIM72-induced cardiac fibrosis. Together, our results support a novel role for TRIM72 in maintaining fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition and suppressing fibroblast growth by regulating the STAT3/Notch-1 pathway.

Abstract
Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) is an E3 ligase that induces insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) ubiquitination and degradation in skeletal muscle. We previously demonstrated that the pharmaceutical disruption of the MG53-IRS-1 interaction improves insulin sensitivity by abrogating IRS-1 ubiquitination and increasing IRS-1 levels in C2C12 myotubes. Here, we developed a novel MG53-IRS-1 interaction disruptor (MID-00935) that ameliorates insulin resistance in diet-induced obese (DIO) mice. MID-00935 disrupted the molecular interaction of MG53 and IRS-1, abrogated MG53-induced IRS-1 ubiquitination and degradation and improved insulin signaling in C2C12 myotubes. Oral administration of MID-00935 increased insulin-induced IRS-1, Akt, and Erk phosphorylation via increasing IRS-1 levels in the skeletal muscle of DIO mice. In DIO mice, MID-00935 treatment lowered fasting blood glucose levels and improved glucose disposal in glucose and insulin tolerance tests. These results suggest that MID-00935 may be a potential muscle-targeting drug candidate for treating insulin resistance.

Abstract
Ubiquitination, a post-translational modification via ubiquitin-proteasome-system, is one of the vital cellular processes involved in intracellular signaling, cell death, transcriptional control, etc. Importantly, it prevents the aggregation of non-functional, misfolded or unfolded, potentially toxic proteins to maintain cellular protein homeostasis. Ubiquitination is accomplished by the concerted action of three enzymatic steps involving E1 activating enzymes, E2 conjugating enzymes, and E3 ligases. Tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) proteins are one of the integral members of E3 ubiquitin ligases in metazoans modulating essential cellular pathways. For long, MuRFs (Muscle ring finger proteins) were the most extensively studied TRIMs for their cardiac function. Recent research advances in the field and our analysis presented here, however, demonstrated broader and ever increasing involvement of additional TRIM E3 ligases in the pathophysiology of heart. In this review, we summarize the known cardiac E3 ligases and their targets, and discuss their role and importance in cardiac proteostasis, pathophysiology and potential therapeutic implications with specific focus on TRIM E3 ligases.

Exp Cell Res 2017; 362:436-443. [PMID: 29233682 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2017.12.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2017] [Revised: 12/07/2017] [Accepted: 12/08/2017] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Atrial fibrosis plays a critical role in atrial fibrillation (AF) by the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1/Smad pathway. The disordered differentiation, proliferation, migration and collagen deposition of atrial fibroblasts play significant roles in atrial fibrosis. Mitsugumin (MG)53 is predominantly expressed in myocardium of rodents and has multiple biological functions. However, the role of MG53 in cardiac fibrosis remains unclear. This study provided clinical and experimental evidence for the involvement of MG53 in atrial fibrosis in humans and atrial fibrosis phenotype in cultured rat atrial fibroblasts. In atrial tissue from patients we demonstrated that MG53 was expressed in human atrium. Expression of MG53 increased with the extent of atrial fibrosis, which could induce AF. In cultured atrial fibroblasts, depletion of MG53 by siRNA caused down-regulation of the TGF-β1/Smad pathway, while overexpression of MG53 by adenovirus up-regulated the pathway. MG53 regulated the proliferation and migration of atrial fibroblasts. Besides, exogenous TGF-β1 suppressed expression of MG53. In conclusion, we demonstrated that MG53 was expressed in human atrium, and may be a potential upstream of the TGF-β1/Smad pathway in human atrium and rat atrial fibroblasts. This suggests that MG53 is a potential regulator of atrial fibrosis induced by the TGF-β1/Smad pathway in patients with AF.

Abstract
MG53 is a member of tripartite motif family (TRIM) that expressed most abundantly in striated muscle. Using rodent models, many studies have demonstrated the MG53 not only facilitates membrane repair after ischemia reperfusion injury, but also contributes to the protective effects of both pre- and post-conditioning. Recently, however, it has been shown that MG53 participates in the regulation of many metabolic processes, especially insulin signaling pathway. Thus, sustained overexpression of MG53 may contribute to the development of various metabolic disorders in striated muscle. In this review, using cardiac muscle as an example, we will discuss muscle metabolic disturbances associated with diabetes and the current understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms; in particular, the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy. We will focus on the pathways that MG53 regulates and how the dysregulation of MG53 leads to metabolic disorders, thereby establishing a causal relationship between sustained upregulation of MG53 and the development of muscle insulin resistance and metabolic disorders. This article is part of a Special issue entitled Cardiac adaptations to obesity, diabetes and insulin resistance, edited by Professors Jan F.C. Glatz, Jason R.B. Dyck and Christine Des Rosiers.

Abstract
Anthracyclines are chemotherapeutic drugs known to induce heart failure in a dose-dependent manner. Mechanisms involved in anthracycline cardiotoxicity are an area of relevant investigation. Caveolins bind, organize and regulate receptors and signaling molecules within cell membranes. Caveolin-3 (Cav-3), integrins and related membrane repair proteins can function as cardioprotective proteins. Expression of these proteins in anthracycline-induced heart failure has not been evaluated. We tested the hypothesis that daunorubicin alters cardioprotective protein expression in the heart. Rabbits were administered daunorubicin (3 mg/kg, IV) weekly, for three weeks or nine weeks. Nine weeks but not three weeks of daunorubicin resulted in progressive reduced left ventricular function. Cav-3 expression in the heart was unchanged at three weeks of daunorubicin and increased in nine week treated rabbits when compared to control hearts. Electron microscopy showed caveolae in the heart were increased and mitochondrial number and size were decreased after nine weeks of daunorubicin. Activated beta-1 (β1) integrin and the membrane repair protein MG53 were increased after nine weeks of daunorubicin vs. controls with no change at the three week time point. The results suggest a potential pathophysiological role for Cav3, integrins and membrane repair in daunorubicin-induced heart failure.

Abstract
Various pathophysiological conditions such as surfactant dysfunction, mechanical ventilation, inflammation, pathogen products, environmental exposures, and gastric acid aspiration stress lung cells, and the compromise of plasma membranes occurs as a result. The mechanisms necessary for cells to repair plasma membrane defects have been extensively investigated in the last two decades, and some of these key repair mechanisms are also shown to occur following lung cell injury. Because it was theorized that lung wounding and repair are involved in the pathogenesis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), in this review, we summarized the experimental evidence of lung cell injury in these two devastating syndromes and discuss relevant genetic, physical, and biological injury mechanisms, as well as mechanisms used by lung cells for cell survival and membrane repair. Finally, we discuss relevant signaling pathways that may be activated by chronic or repeated lung cell injury as an extension of our cell injury and repair focus in this review. We hope that a holistic view of injurious stimuli relevant for ARDS and IPF could lead to updated experimental models. In addition, parallel discussion of membrane repair mechanisms in lung cells and injury-activated signaling pathways would encourage research to bridge gaps in current knowledge. Indeed, deep understanding of lung cell wounding and repair, and discovery of relevant repair moieties for lung cells, should inspire the development of new therapies that are likely preventive and broadly effective for targeting injurious pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) is an E3 ligase that interacts with and ubiquitinates insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) in skeletal muscle; thus, an MG53-IRS-1 interaction disruptor (MID), which potentially sensitizes insulin signaling with an elevated level of IRS-1 in skeletal muscle, is an excellent candidate for treating insulin resistance. To screen for an MID, we developed a bimolecular luminescence complementation system using an N-terminal luciferase fragment fused with IRS-1 and a C-terminal luciferase fragment fused with an MG53 C14A mutant that binds to IRS-1 but does not have E3 ligase activity. An MID, which was discovered using the bimolecular luminescence complementation system, disrupted the molecular association of MG53 with IRS-1, thus abolishing MG53-mediated IRS-1 ubiquitination and degradation. Thus, the MID sensitized insulin signaling and increased insulin-elicited glucose uptake with an elevated level of IRS-1 in C2C12 myotubes. These data indicate that this MID holds promise as a drug candidate for treating insulin resistance.

Swimming Exercise Alleviated Insulin Resistance by Regulating Tripartite Motif Family Protein 72 Expression and AKT Signal Pathway in Sprague-Dawley Rats Fed with High-Fat Diet. J Diabetes Res 2016; 2016:1564386.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate whether swimming exercise could improve insulin resistance (IR) by regulating tripartite motif family protein 72 (TRIM72) expression and AKT signal pathway in rats fed with high-fat diet. Five-week-old rats were classified into 3 groups: standard diet as control (CON), high-fat diet (HFD), and HFD plus swimming exercise (Ex-HFD). After 8 weeks, glucose infusion rate (GIR), markers of oxidative stress, mRNA and protein expression of TRIM72, protein of IRS, p-AKTSer473, and AKT were determined in quadriceps muscles. Compared with HFD, the GIR, muscle SOD, and GSH-Px were significantly increased (p < 0.05, resp.), whereas muscle MDA and 8-OHdG levels were significantly decreased (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01) in Ex-HFD. Expression levels of TRIM72 mRNA and protein in muscles were significantly reduced (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01), whereas protein expression levels of IRS-1, p-AKTSer473, and AKT were significantly increased in Ex-HFD compared with HFD (p < 0.01, p < 0.01, and p < 0.05). These results suggest that an 8-week swimming exercise improves HFD-induced insulin resistance maybe through a reduction of TRIM72 in skeletal muscle and enhancement of AKT signal transduction.
