Abstract
Regulated cell death is a genetically determined form of programmed cell death that commonly occurs during the development of living organisms. This process plays a crucial role in modulating homeostasis and is evolutionarily conserved across a diverse range of living organisms. Ferroptosis is a classic regulatory mode of cell death. Extensive studies of regulatory cell death in Alzheimer's disease have yielded increasing evidence that ferroptosis is closely related to the occurrence, development, and prognosis of Alzheimer's disease. This review summarizes the molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis and recent research advances in the role of ferroptosis in Alzheimer's disease. Our findings are expected to serve as a theoretical and experimental foundation for clinical research and targeted therapy for Alzheimer's disease.

Selenium binding protein 1 protects renal tubular epithelial cells from ferroptosis by upregulating glutathione peroxidase 4. Chem Biol Interact 2024; 393:110944. [PMID: 38518851 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2024.110944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/24/2024]
Abstract
Ferroptosis is a form of programmed cell death involved in various types of acute kidney injury (AKI). It is characterized by inactivation of the selenoprotein, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), and upregulation of acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4). Since urinary selenium binding protein 1 (SBP1/SELENBP1) is a potential biomarker for AKI, this study investigated whether SBP1 plays a role in AKI. First, we showed that SBP1 is expressed in proximal tubular cells in normal human kidney, but is significant downregulated in cases of AKI in association with reduced GPX4 expression and increased ACSL4 expression. In mouse renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R), the rapid downregulation of SBP1 protein levels preceded downregulation of GPX4 and the onset of necrosis. In vitro, hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) stimulation in human proximal tubular epithelial (HK-2) cells induced ferroptotic cell death in associated with an acute reduction in SBP1 and GPX4 expression, and increased oxidative stress. Knockdown of SBP1 reduced GPX4 expression and increased the susceptibility of HK-2 cells to H/R-induced cell death, whereas overexpression of SBP1 reduced oxidative stress, maintained GPX4 expression, reduced mitochondrial damage, and reduced H/R-induced cell death. Finally, selenium deficiency reduced GPX4 expression and promoted H/R-induced cell death, whereas addition of selenium was protective against H/R-induced oxidative stress. In conclusion, SBP1 plays a functional role in hypoxia-induced tubular cell death. Enhancing SBP1 expression is a potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of AKI.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are epigenetic regulators that can target and inhibit translation of multiple mRNAs within a given cell type. As such, a number of different pathways and networks may be modulated as a result. In fact, miRNAs are known to regulate many cellular processes including differentiation, proliferation, inflammation, and metabolism. This review focuses on the miR-181 family and provides information from the published literature on the role of miR-181 homologs in regulating a range of activities in different cell types and tissues. Of note, we have not included details on miR-181 expression and function in the context of cancer since this is a broad topic area requiring independent review. Instead, we have focused on describing the function and mechanism of miR-181 family members on differentiation toward a number of cell lineages in various non-neoplastic conditions (e.g., immune/hematopoietic cells, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, chondrocytes, adipocytes). We have also provided information on how modulation of miR-181 homologs can have positive effects on disease states such as cardiac abnormalities, pulmonary arterial hypertension, thrombosis, osteoarthritis, and vascular inflammation. In this context, we have used some examples of FDA-approved drugs that modulate miR-181 expression. We conclude by discussing some common mechanisms by which miR-181 homologs appear to regulate a number of different cellular processes and how targeting specific miR-181 family members may lead to attractive therapeutic approaches to treat a number of human disease or repair conditions, including those associated with the aging process.

Prospects for Anti-Tumor Mechanism and Potential Clinical Application Based on Glutathione Peroxidase 4 Mediated Ferroptosis. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24021607.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, characterized by excessive iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation, is a novel form of iron-dependent cell death, which is morphologically, genetically, and biochemically distinct from other known cell death types, such as apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy. Emerging evidence shows that glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a critical core regulator of ferroptosis, plays an essential role in protecting cells from ferroptosis by removing the product of iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. The fast-growing studies on ferroptosis in cancer have boosted a perspective on its use in cancer therapeutics. In addition, significant progress has been made in researching and developing tumor therapeutic drugs targeting GPX4 based on ferroptosis, especially in acquired drug resistance. Selenium modulates GPX4-mediated ferroptosis, and its existing form, selenocysteine (Sec), is the active center of GPX4. This review explored the structure and function of GPX4, with the overarching goal of revealing its mechanism and potential application in tumor therapy through regulating ferroptosis. A deeper understanding of the mechanism and application of GPX4-mediated ferroptosis in cancer therapy will provide new strategies for the research and development of antitumor drugs.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is an essential element for the maintenance of a healthy physiological state. However, due to environmental and dietary factors and the narrow safety range of Se, diseases caused by Se deficiency or excess have gained considerable traction in recent years. In particular, links have been identified between low Se status, cognitive decline, immune disorders, and increased mortality, whereas excess Se increases metabolic risk. Considerable evidence has suggested microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate interactions between the environment (including the diet) and genes, and play important roles in several diseases, including cancer. MiRNAs target messenger RNAs to induce changes in proteins including selenoprotein expression, ultimately generating disease. While a plethora of data exists on the epigenetic regulation of other dietary factors, nutrient Se epigenetics and especially miRNA regulated mechanisms remain unclear. Thus, this review mainly focuses on Se metabolism, pathogenic mechanisms, and miRNAs as key regulatory factors in Se-related diseases. Finally, we attempt to clarify the regulatory mechanisms underpinning Se, miRNAs, selenoproteins, and Se-related diseases.

SECISBP2 is a novel prognostic predictor that regulates selenoproteins in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. J Transl Med 2021; 101:218-227. [PMID: 33077808 DOI: 10.1038/s41374-020-00495-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2020] [Revised: 09/18/2020] [Accepted: 09/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
The overexpression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4; an enzyme that suppresses peroxidation of membrane phospholipids) is considered a poor prognostic predictor of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, the mechanisms employed in GPX4 overexpression remain unknown. GPX4 is translated as a complete protein upon the binding of SECISBP2 to the selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) on the 3'UTR of GPX4 mRNA. In this study, we investigated the expression of SECISBP2 and its subsequent regulation of GPX4 and TXNRD1 in DLBCL patients. Moreover, we determined the significance of the expression of these selenoproteins in vitro using MD901 and Raji cells. SECISBP2 was positive in 45.5% (75/165 cases) of DLBCL samples. The SECISBP2-positive group was associated with low overall survival (OS) as compared to the SECISBP2-negative group (P = 0.006). Similarly, the SECISBP2 and GPX4 or TXNRD1 double-positive groups (P < 0.001), as well as the SECISBP2, GPX4, and TXNRD1 triple-positive group correlated with poor OS (P = 0.001), suggesting that SECISBP2 may serve as an independent prognostic predictor for DLBCL (hazard ratio (HR): 2.693, P = 0.008). In addition, western blotting showed a decrease in GPX4 and TXNRD1 levels in SECISBP2-knockout (KO) MD901 and Raji cells. Oxidative stress increased the accumulation of reactive oxygen species in SECISBP2-KO cells (MD901; P < 0.001, Raji; P = 0.020), and reduced cell proliferation (MD901; P = 0.001, Raji; P = 0.030), suggesting that SECISBP2-KO suppressed resistance to oxidative stress. Doxorubicin treatment increased the rate of cell death in SECISBP2-KO cells (MD901; P < 0.001, Raji; P = 0.048). Removal of oxidative stress inhibited the altered cell death rate. Taken together, our results suggest that SECISBP2 may be a novel therapeutic target in DLBCL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Both selenium (Se) deficiency and mycotoxin T2 lead to epiphyseal plate lesions, similar to Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). However, regulation of selenoproteins synthesis mediated by SECISBP2, in response to these 2 environmental factors, remained unclear. The present study proposed to explore the mechanism behind the cartilage degradation resulting from Se deficiency and mycotoxin T2 exposure. DESIGN Deep chondrocyte necrosis and epiphyseal plate lesions were replicated in Dark Agouti (DA) rats by feeding them T2 toxin/Se deficiency artificial synthetic diet for 2 months. RESULTS Se deficiency led to decreased expression of COL2α1, while T2 treatment reduced the heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 2 (HS6ST2) expression, both of which affected the cartilage extracellular matrix metabolism in the rat models. The expression of Col2α1, Acan, Hs6st2, Secisbp2, Gpx1, and Gpx4 were all significantly decreased in cartilage tissues from DA rats, fed a Se-deficient diet or exposed to T2 toxin, contrary to Adamts4, whose expression was increased in both conditions. In addition, T2 treatment led to the decreased expression of SBP2, GPX1, GPX4, and total GPXs activity in C28/I2 cells. CONCLUSION DA rats exposed to T2 toxin and/or Se-deficient conditions serve as the perfect model of KBD. The 2 environmental risk factors of KBD, which serve as a "double whammy," can intensify the extracellular matrix metabolic imbalance and the antioxidant activity of chondrocytes, leading to articular cartilage degradation and epiphyseal plate abnormalities similar to those observed in KBD.

Abstract
The functional activity of selenoproteins has a wide range of effects on complex pathogenetic processes, including teratogenesis, immuno-inflammatory, neurodegenerative. Being active participants and promoters of many signaling pathways, selenoproteins support the lively interest of a wide scientific community. This review is devoted to the analysis of recent data describing the participation of selenoproteins in various molecular interactions mediating important signaling pathways. Data processing was carried out by the method of complex analysis. For convenience, all selenoproteins were divided into groups depending on their location and function. Among the group of selenoproteins of the ER membrane, selenoprotein N affects the absorption of Ca2+ by the endoplasmic reticulum mediated by oxidoreductin (ERO1), a key player in the CHOP/ERO1 branch, a pathogenic mechanism that causes myopathy. Another selenoprotein of the ER membrane selenoprotein K binding to the DHHC6 protein affects the IP3R receptor that regulates Ca2+ flux. Selenoprotein K is able to affect another protein of the endoplasmic reticulum CHERP, also appearing in Ca2+ transport. Selenoprotein S, associated with the lumen of ER, is able to influence the VCP protein, which ensures the incorporation of selenoprotein K into the ER membrane. Selenoprotein M, as an ER lumen protein, affects the phosphorylation of STAT3 by leptin, which confirms that Sel M is a positive regulator of leptin signaling. Selenoprotein S also related to luminal selenoproteins ER is a modulator of the IRE1α-sXBP1 signaling pathway. Nuclear selenoprotein H will directly affect the suppressor of malignant tumours, p53 protein, the activation of which increases with Sel H deficiency. The same selenoprotein is involved in redox regulation. Among the cytoplasmic selenoproteins, abundant investigations are devoted to SelP, which affects the PI3K/Akt/Erk signaling pathway during ischemia/reperfusion, is transported into the myoblasts through the plasmalemma after binding to the apoER2 receptor, and into the neurons to the megaline receptor and in general, selenoprotein P plays the role of a pool that stores the necessary trace element and releases it, if necessary, for vital selenoproteins. The thioredoxin reductase family plays a key role in the invasion and metastasis of salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma through the influence on the TGF-β-Akt/GSK-3β pathway during epithelial-mesenchymal transition. The deletion of thioredoxin reductase 1 affects the levels of messengers of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. No less studied is the glutathione peroxidase group, of which GPX3 is able to inhibit signaling in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and thereby inhibit thyroid metastasis, as well as suppress protein levels in the PI3K/Akt/c-fos pathway. A key observation is that in cases of carcinogenesis, a decrease in GPX3 and its hypermethylation are almost always found. Among deiodinases, deiodinase 3 acts as a promoter of the oncogenes BRAF, MEK or p38, while stimulating a decrease in the expression of cyclin D1. The dependence of the level of deiodinase 3 on the Hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway is also noted. Methionine sulfoxide reductase A can compete for the uptake of ubiquitin, reduce p38, JNK and ERK promoters of the MAPK signaling pathway; methionine sulfoxide reductase B1 suppresses MAPK signaling messengers, and also increases PARP and caspase 3.

[PMID: 31844680 PMCID: PMC6884925 DOI: 10.1515/med-2019-0106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2019] [Accepted: 08/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of miR-181a-5p in sepsis, and to further explore the molecular mechanism. RAW 264.7 cells were stimulated with 1 μg/ml LPS for 4 hours. Firstly, qRT-PCR and ELISA was adopted to evaluate the expression of miR-181a-5p and p ro-inflammatory cytokines in RAW 264.7 macrophages a fter LPS stimulation. Results showed that pro-inflammatory cytokines and miR-181a-5p were significantly increased after LPS treatment. Then, we identified that sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) was a direct target of miR-181a-5p and it was down-regulated in LPS treated RAW264.7 macrophages. Furthermore, the data suggested that the miR-181a-5p inhibitor significantly inhibited LPS enhanced inflammatory cytokines expression and NF-κB pathway activation, and these changes were eliminated by SIRT1 silencing. Moreover, the role of the miR-181a-5p inhibitor on sepsis was studied in vivo. We found that the miR-181a-5p inhibitor significantly decreased the secretion of inflammatory factors, and the levels of creatine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in a serum for mice with sepsis. However, all the effects were reversed by SIRT1-siRNA. In summary, these results indicated that miR-181a-5p was involved in sepsis through regulating the inflammatory response by targeting SIRT1, suggesting that miR-181a-5p may be a potential target for the treatment of sepsis.

Maintenance of SOX9 stability and ECM homeostasis by selenium-sensitive PRMT5 in cartilage. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2019; 27:932-944. [PMID: 30858101 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2019.02.797] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2018] [Revised: 02/10/2019] [Accepted: 02/27/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Selenium (Se) plays pivotal roles in maintaining optimal health. Nevertheless, how Se influences the metabolism of extracellular matrix (ECM) in cartilage remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to observe protein dimethylation by certain Se-sensitive PRMT and to elucidate its effects on the key transcriptional factor in cartilage. METHODS We observed the expression of selenoproteins and markers of ECM metabolism in chondrocytes and articular cartilage of the rats under Se-deficiency by RT-qPCR, immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry. Then, we analyzed the expression of total dimethylated protein by using specific antibody under different Se statuses. After Se sensitive PRMT was identified, we used siRNA or PRMT inhibitor or stably overexpressing vector to intervene in the PRMT expression and identified the key transcriptional factor. Co-immunoprecipitation was applied to verify the interaction between PRMT and the key transcriptional factor. Finally, we measured the half-life time of the key transcriptional factor by immunoblotting after cycloheximide treatment. RESULTS In chondrocytes and cartilage of the rats with Se deficiency, we found an aberrant metabolism manifesting decreased expression of Col2a1 and increased expression of Mmp-3. Then, we identified that PRMT5 was the unique type II PRMT, sensitive to Se status. PRMT5 upregulation led to the increased COL2A1 expression but decreased MMP-3 expression in chondrocytes. Furthermore, we revealed that PRMT5 improved SOX9 stability by dimethylating the protein, which contributed to maintain the matrix metabolic homeostasis of the chondrocytes. CONCLUSIONS Se-sensitive PRMT5 increases the half-life of SOX9 protein via PTM and helps to maintain ECM homeostasis of the articular cartilage.

Selenium-sensitive miRNA-181a-5p targeting SBP2 regulates selenoproteins expression in cartilage. J Cell Mol Med 2018; 22:5888-5898.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) deficiency brings about defects in the biosynthesis of several selenoproteins and has been associated with aberrant chondrogenesis. Selenocysteine (Sec) Insertion Sequence (SECIS) and SECIS binding protein 2 (SBP2) interaction is a very critical node for the metabolic balance between Se and selenoproteins. The Gpx1, Gpx4 and SelS have different binding affinities with SBP2 in cells. According to our results, both miR‐181a‐5p and SBP2 appeared to be selenium‐sensitive and regulated the expression of selenoproteins in C28/I2 cells under Se sufficient environment. However, they showed significantly opposite expression trend in Se deficiency rats cartilage and SeD C28/I2 cells. The SBP2 is a direct target gene of miR‐181a‐5p in C28/I2 cells as determined by reporter gene and off‐target experiments. And the miR‐181a‐5p could regulate SBP2 and the selenoproteins in C28/I2 cells. Depending upon the Se supply levels, C28/I2 cells were divided into three groups, that is normal Se, SeD and SeS, which underwent through a 7‐day Se deprivation process, then SBP2 was knocked‐down and overexpressed in all the groups. Moreover, the selected selenoproteins were down‐regulated in second‐generation low Se diet rat cartilage. The selenoproteins expression was decreased by Se deficiency which depended on the Selenium‐sensitive miR‐181a‐5p to participate and regulate SBP2 at post‐transcriptional level. It involves a series of antioxidant and ECM (extracellular matrix) genes, to overcome the ROS‐related stress for the protection of essential physiological functions and to maintain the balance between anabolism and catabolism of the cartilage.
