Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2024; 722:150132. [PMID: 38788354 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2024.150132] [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: 03/05/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aims to investigate the protective potential of salidroside in both lung ischemia/reperfusion injury (LIRI) mice model and cell hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)model and the involvement of ferroptosis and JAK2/STAT3 pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS After we established the IR-induced lung injury model in mice, we administered salidroside and the ferroptosis inhibitor, ferrostatin-1, then assessed the lung tissue injury, ferroptosis (levels of reactive oxygen species level, malondialdehyde and glutathione), and inflammation in lung tissues. The levels of ferroptosis-related proteins (glutathione peroxidase 4, fibroblast-specific protein 1, solute carrier family 1 member 5 and glutaminase 2) in the lung tissue were measured with Western blotting. Next, BEAS-2B cells were used to establish an H/R cell model and treated with salidroside or ferrostatin-1 before the cell viability and the levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), inflammatory factor, ferroptosis-related proteins were measured. The activation of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway was measured with Western blotting, then its role was confirmed with STAT3 knockdown. RESULTS Remarkably, salidroside was found to alleviate ferroptosis, inflammation, and lung injury in LIRI mice and the cell injury in H/R cell model. Severe ferroptosis were observed in LIRI mice models and H/R-induced BEAS-2B cells, which was alleviated by salidroside. Furthermore, salidroside could inhibit JAK2/STAT3 activation induced by LIRI. STAT3 knockdown could enhance the effect of salidroside treatment on H/R-induced cell damage and ferroptosis in vitro. CONCLUSIONS Salidroside inhibits ferroptosis to alleviate lung ischemia reperfusion injury via the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

[PMID: 38688398 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176570] [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: 12/09/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Mitochondrial dynamics play a crucial role in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, where an imbalance between fusion and fission processes occurs. However, effective measures to regulate mitochondrial dynamics in this context are currently lacking. Peptide derived from the 40 S ribosomal protein S6 (PDRPS6), a peptide identified via peptidomics, is associated with hypoxic stress. This study aimed to investigate the function and mechanism of action of PDRPS6 in I/R injury. In vivo, PDRPS6 ameliorated myocardial tissue injury and cardiomyocyte apoptosis and decreased cardiac function induced by I/R injury in rats. PDRPS6 supplementation significantly reduced apoptosis in vitro. Mechanistically, PDRPS6 improved mitochondrial function by decreasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, maintaining mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and inhibiting mitochondrial fission. Pull-down assay analyses revealed that phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5) may be the target of PDRPS6, which can lead to the dephosphorylation of dynamin-related protein1 (Drp1) at ser616 site. Overexpression of PGAM5 partially eliminated the effect of PDRPS6 on improving mitochondrial function. These findings suggest that PDRPS6 supplementation is a novel method for treating myocardial injuries caused by I/R.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition manifested by organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Lung, brain, liver, kidney, and heart are among the affected organs. Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy is a common cause of death among septic patients. Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy is characterized by an acute and reversible significant decline in biventricular both systolic and diastolic function. This is accompanied by left ventricular dilatation. The pathogenesis underlying sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy is multifactorial. Hence, targeting an individual pathway may not be effective in halting the extensive dysregulated immune response. Despite major advances in sepsis management strategies, no effective pharmacological strategies have been shown to treat or even reverse sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy. Melatonin, namely, N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine, is synthesized in the pineal gland of mammals and can also be produced in many cells and tissues. Melatonin has cardioprotective, neuroprotective, and anti-tumor activity. Several literature reviews have explored the role of melatonin in preventing sepsis-induced organ failure. Melatonin was found to act on different pathways that are involved in the pathogenesis of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy. Through its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activity, it offers a potential role in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy. Its antioxidant activity is through free radical scavenging against reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and modulating the expression and activity of antioxidant enzymes. Melatonin anti-inflammatory activities control the overactive immune system and mitigate cytokine storm. Also, it mitigates mitochondrial dysfunction, a major mechanism involved in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy, and thus controls apoptosis. Therefore, this review discusses melatonin as a promising drug for the management of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent and cystathione-non-dependent non-apoptotic cell death characterized by elevated intracellular free iron levels and reduced antioxidant capacity, leading to the accumulation of lipid peroxides. Nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) mediates ferritinophagy, increasing labile iron levels, which can result in oxidative damage. However, the specific mechanism of NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion and the underlying mechanisms have not been reported in detail. OBJECT 1. To investigate the role of NCOA4 in ferroptosis of intestinal epithelial cells induced by II/R injury in mouse. 2. To investigate the mechanism of action of NCOA4-induced ferroptosis. METHODS 1. Construct a mouse II/R injury model and detect ferroptosis related markers such as HE staining, immunohistochemistry, ELISA, and WB methods. 2. Detect expression of NCOA4 in the intestine of mouse with II/R injury model and analyze its correlation with intestinal ferroptosis in mouse with II/R injury model. 3. Construct an ischemia-reperfusion model at the cellular level through hypoxia and reoxygenation, and overexpress/knockdown NCOA4 to detect markers related to ferroptosis. Based on animal experimental results, analyze the correlation and mechanism of action between NCOA4 and intestinal epithelial ferroptosis induced by II/R injury in mouse. RESULTS 1. Ferroptosis occurred in the intestinal epithelial cells of II/R-injured mouse, and the expression of critical factors of ferroptosis, ACSL4, MDA and 15-LOX, was significantly increased, while the levels of GPX4 and GSH were significantly decreased. 2. The expression of NCOA4 in the intestinal epithelium of mouse with II/R injure was significantly increased, the expression of ferritin was significantly decreased, and the level of free ferrous ions was significantly increased; the expression of autophagy-related proteins LC3 and Beclin-1 protein was increased, and the expression of P62 was decreased, and these changes were reversed by autophagy inhibitors. 3. Knockdown of NCOA4 at the cellular level resulted in increased ferritin expression and decreased ferroptosis, and CO-IP experiments suggested that NCOA4 can bind to ferritin, which suggests that NCOA4 most likely mediates ferritinophagy to induce ferroptosis. CONCLUSION This thesis explored the role of NCOA4 in II/R injury in mice and the mechanism of action. The research results suggest that NCOA4 can mediate ferritinophagy to induce ferroptosis during II/R injury. This experiment reveals the pathological mechanism of II/R injury and provides some scientific basis for the development of drugs for the treatment of II/R injury based on the purpose of alleviating ferroptosis.

Abstract
Background The implication of necroptosis in cardiovascular disease was already recognized. However, the molecular mechanism of necroptosis has not been extensively studied in coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between CHD and control samples were acquired in the GSE20681 dataset downloaded from the GEO database. Key necroptosis-related DEGs were captured and ascertained by bioinformatics analysis techniques, including weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and two machine learning algorithms, while single-gene gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed their molecular mechanisms. The diagnostic biomarkers were selected via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Moreover, an analysis of immune elements infiltration degree was carried out. Authentication of pivotal gene expression at the mRNA level was investigated in vitro utilizing quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Results A total of 94 DE-NRGs were recognized here, among which, FAM166B, NEFL, POLDIP3, PRSS37, and ZNF594 were authenticated as necroptosis-related biomarkers, and the linear regression model based on them presented an acceptable ability to different sample types. Following regulatory analysis, the ascertained biomarkers were markedly abundant in functions pertinent to blood circulation, calcium ion homeostasis, and the MAPK/cAMP/Ras signaling pathway. Single-sample GSEA exhibited that APC co-stimulation and CCR were more abundant, and aDCs and B cells were relatively scarce in CHD patients. Consistent findings from bioinformatics and qRT-PCR analyses confirmed the upregulation of NEFL and the downregulation of FAM166B, POLDIP3, and PRSS37 in CHD. Conclusion Our current investigation identified 5 necroptosis-related genes that could be diagnostic markers for CHD and brought a novel comprehension of the latent molecular mechanisms of necroptosis in CHD.

Abstract
As the global population ages, the incidence of elderly patients with dementia, represented by Alzheimer's disease (AD), will continue to increase. Previous studies have suggested that β-amyloid protein (Aβ) deposition is a key factor leading to AD. However, the clinical efficacy of treating AD with anti-Aβ protein antibodies is not satisfactory, suggesting that Aβ amyloidosis may be a pathological change rather than a key factor leading to AD. Identification of the causes of AD and development of corresponding prevention and treatment strategies is an important goal of current research. Following the discovery of soluble oligomeric forms of Aβ (AβO) in 1998, scientists began to focus on the neurotoxicity of AβOs. As an endogenous neurotoxin, the active growth of AβOs can lead to neuronal death, which is believed to occur before plaque formation, suggesting that AβOs are the key factors leading to AD. PANoptosis, a newly proposed concept of cell death that includes known modes of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, is a form of cell death regulated by the PANoptosome complex. Neuronal survival depends on proper mitochondrial function. Under conditions of AβO interference, mitochondrial dysfunction occurs, releasing lethal contents as potential upstream effectors of the PANoptosome. Considering the critical role of neurons in cognitive function and the development of AD as well as the regulatory role of mitochondrial function in neuronal survival, investigation of the potential mechanisms leading to neuronal PANoptosis is crucial. This review describes the disruption of neuronal mitochondrial function by AβOs and elucidates how AβOs may activate neuronal PANoptosis by causing mitochondrial dysfunction during the development of AD, providing guidance for the development of targeted neuronal treatment strategies.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury most commonly occurs in coronary artery disease when prompt reperfusion is used to salvage the ischemic myocardium. Cardiomyocyte death is a significant component of myocardial I/R injury and its mechanism was previously thought to be limited to apoptosis and necrosis. With the discovery of novel types of cell death, ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis have been shown to be involved in myocardial I/R. These new forms of regulated cell death cause cardiomyocyte loss and exacerbate I/R injury by affecting reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, calcium stress, and inflammatory cascades, subsequently mediating adverse remodeling, cardiac dysfunction, and heart failure. Herein, we review the roles of ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis in myocardial I/R and discuss their contribution to pathology.

The E3 ubiquitin ligase MARCH2 protects against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury through inhibiting pyroptosis via negative regulation of PGAM5/MAVS/NLRP3 axis. Cell Discov 2024; 10:24. [PMID: 38409220 PMCID: PMC10897310 DOI: 10.1038/s41421-023-00622-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 02/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Inflammasome activation and pyroptotic cell death are known to contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, although the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we report that expression levels of the E3 ubiquitin ligase membrane-associated RING finger protein 2 (MARCH2) were elevated in ischemic human hearts or mouse hearts upon I/R injury. Genetic ablation of MARCH2 aggravated myocardial infarction and cardiac dysfunction upon myocardial I/R injury. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis suggested that loss of MARCH2 prompted activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in cardiomyocytes. Mechanistically, phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5) was found to act as a novel regulator of MAVS-NLRP3 signaling by forming liquid-liquid phase separation condensates with MAVS and fostering the recruitment of NLRP3. MARCH2 directly interacts with PGAM5 to promote its K48-linked polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, resulting in reduced PGAM5-MAVS co-condensation, and consequently inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and cardiomyocyte pyroptosis. AAV-based re-introduction of MARCH2 significantly ameliorated I/R-induced mouse heart dysfunction. Altogether, our findings reveal a novel mechanism where MARCH2-mediated ubiquitination negatively regulates the PGAM5/MAVS/NLRP3 axis to protect against cardiomyocyte pyroptosis and myocardial I/R injury.

Neutrophil extracellular traps aggravate intestinal epithelial necroptosis in ischaemia-reperfusion by regulating TLR4/RIPK3/FUNDC1-required mitophagy. Cell Prolif 2024; 57:e13538.

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) has been confirmed to be related to gut barrier injury during intestinal ischaemia-reperfusion (II/R). However, the specific molecular regulatory mechanism of NETs in II/R-induced intestinal barrier damage has yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we reported increased NETs infiltration accompanied by elevated inflammatory cytokines, cellular necroptosis and tight junction disruption in the intestine of human II/R patients. Meanwhile, NETs aggravated Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cell necroptosis, impairing the monolayer barrier in vitro. Moreover, Pad4-deficient mice were used further to validate the role of NETs in II/R-induced intestinal injury. In contrast, NET inhibition via Pad4 deficiency alleviated intestinal inflammation, attenuated cellular necroptosis, improved intestinal permeability, and enhanced tight junction protein expression. Notably, NETs prevented FUN14 domain-containing 1 (FUNDC1)-required mitophagy activation in intestinal epithelial cells, and stimulating mitophagy attenuated NET-associated mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular necroptosis, and intestinal damage. Mechanistically, silencing Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) or receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) via shRNA relieved mitophagy limitation, restored mitochondrial function and reduced NET-induced necroptosis in Caco-2 cells, whereas this protective effect was reversed by TLR4 or RIPK3 overexpression. The regulation of TLR4/RIPK3/FUNDC1-required mitophagy by NETs can potentially induce intestinal epithelium necroptosis.

[PMID: 38114486 PMCID: PMC10730859 DOI: 10.1038/s41420-023-01762-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Research suggests that ischemic glycolysis improves myocardial tolerance to anoxia and low-flow ischemia. The rate of glycolysis during ischemia reflects the severity of the injury caused by ischemia and subsequent functional recovery following reperfusion. Histone H2AK119 ubiquitination (H2Aub) is a common modification that is primarily associated with gene silencing. Recent studies have demonstrated that H2Aub contributes to the development of cardiovascular diseases. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study identified Hsp27 (heat shock protein 27) as a H2Aub binding protein and explored its involvement in mediating glycolysis and mitochondrial function. Functional studies revealed that inhibition of PRC1 (polycomb repressive complex 1) decreased H2Aub occupancy and promoted Hsp27 expression through inhibiting ubiquitination. Additionally, it increased glycolysis by activating the NF-κB/PFKFB3 signaling pathway during myocardial ischemia. Furthermore, Hsp27 reduced mitochondrial ROS production by chaperoning COQ9, and suppressed ferroptosis during reperfusion. A delivery system was developed based on PCL-PEG-MAL (PPM)-PCM-SH (CWLSEAGPVVTVRALRGTGSW) to deliver PRT4165 (PRT), a potent inhibitor of PRC1, to damaged myocardium, resulting in decreased H2Aub. These findings revealed a novel epigenetic mechanism connecting glycolysis and ferroptosis in protecting the myocardium against ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Brain Res Bull 2023; 204:110809. [PMID: 37931809 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2023.110809] [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: 09/02/2023] [Revised: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sevoflurane, a commonly administered inhaled anesthetic, is found to induce synaptic and mitochondrial damage in neonatal mice. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) changes, mediated by Cyclophilin D (CypD), are implicated in mitochondrial function. Melatonin, known for its significant neuroprotective properties, was investigated in this study to elucidate its mechanisms in mitigating the cognitive impairment caused by sevoflurane. METHODS The mice were categorized into several groups, including the control, vehicle, sevoflurane, vehicle plus sevoflurane, and melatonin plus sevoflurane groups. From postnatal day 6 to day 8, the mice were administered inhaled sevoflurane or intraperitoneal melatonin. MMP and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured using appropriate detection kits. The protein expression levels of PSD95, Synapsin Ⅰ, and CypD in the hippocampus were analyzed through western blotting in acute and prolonged terms. Immunofluorescence staining was used to assess the co-localizations of PSD95 or CypD in parvalbumin (PV) neurons. Cognitive ability was evaluated through novel object recognition, social interaction experiment, and the Morris water maze. RESULTS The findings revealed that repeated exposure to sevoflurane in neonatal mice resulted in cognitive and synaptic impairment. Furthermore, melatonin administration suppressed the ROS and CypD protein expression, enhanced the MMP in mitochondria and synaptic protein expression in PV neurons, and ameliorated cognitive deficits. CONCLUSION Melatonin alleviated sevoflurane-induced cognitive deficits by suppressing CypD and promoting synaptic development in hippocampal PV neurons. These results provide valuable insights into a promising therapeutic approach for preventing neurotoxic injuries caused by general anesthetics.

Abstract
The vascular endothelium is vital in maintaining cardiovascular health by regulating vascular permeability and tone, preventing thrombosis, and controlling vascular inflammation. However, when oxidative stress triggers endothelial dysfunction, it can lead to chronic cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This happens due to oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammatory responses, and reduced levels of nitric oxide. These factors cause damage to endothelial cells, leading to the acceleration of CVD progression. Melatonin, a natural antioxidant, has been shown to inhibit oxidative stress and stabilize endothelial function, providing cardiovascular protection. The clinical application of melatonin in the prevention and treatment of CVDs has received widespread attention. In this review, based on bibliometric studies, we first discussed the relationship between oxidative stress-induced endothelial dysfunction and CVDs, then summarized the role of melatonin in the treatment of atherosclerosis, hypertension, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, and other CVDs. Finally, the potential clinical use of melatonin in the treatment of these diseases is discussed.

Abstract
Necroptosis, a cell death modality that is defined as a necrosis-like cell death depending on the receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like pseudokinase (MLKL), has been found to underlie the injury of various organs. Nevertheless, the molecular background of this cell loss seems to also involve, at least under certain circumstances, some novel axes, such as RIPK3-PGAM5-Drp1 (mitochondrial protein phosphatase 5-dynamin-related protein 1), RIPK3-CaMKII (Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II) and RIPK3-JNK-BNIP3 (c-Jun N-terminal kinase-BCL2 Interacting Protein 3). In addition, endoplasmic reticulum stress and oxidative stress via the higher production of reactive oxygen species produced by the mitochondrial enzymes and the enzymes of the plasma membrane have been implicated in necroptosis, thereby depicting an inter-organelle interplay in the mechanisms of this cell death. However, the role and relationship between these novel non-conventional signalling and the well-accepted canonical pathway in terms of tissue- and/or disease-specific prioritisation is completely unknown. In this review, we provide current knowledge on some necroptotic pathways being not directly associated with RIPK3-MLKL execution and report studies showing the role of respective microRNAs in the regulation of necroptotic injury in the heart and in some other tissues having a high expression of the pro-necroptotic proteins.

Abstract
Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is a common complication of sepsis contributing to high mortality rates. Its pathophysiology involves complex factors, including inflammatory cytokines, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and immune dysregulation. Despite extensive research, no effective pharmacological agent has been established for sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy. Melatonin, a hormone with diverse functions in the body, has emerged as a potential agent for SCM through its anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and cardioprotective roles. Through various molecular levels of its mechanism of action, it counterattacks the adverse event of sepsis. Experimental studies have mentioned that melatonin protects against many cardiovascular diseases and exerts preventive effects on SCM. Moreover, melatonin has been investigated in combination with other drugs such as antibiotics, resveratrol, and anti-oxidants showing synergistic effects in reducing inflammation, anti-oxidant, and improving cardiac function. While preclinical studies have demonstrated positive results, clinical trials are required to establish the optimal dosage, route of administration, and treatment duration for melatonin in SCM. Its safety profile, low toxicity, and natural occurrence in the human body provide a favorable basis for its clinical use. This review aims to provide an overview of the current evidence of the use of melatonin in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM). Melatonin appears to be promising as a possible treatment for sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy and demands further investigation.

Abstract
We downloaded the mRNA expression profiles of patients with LUAD and corresponding clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and used the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator Cox regression model to construct a multigene signature in the TCGA cohort, which was validated with patient data from the GEO cohort. Results showed differences in the expression levels of 120 necroptosis-related genes between normal and tumor tissues. An eight-gene signature (CYLD, FADD, H2AX, RBCK1, PPIA, PPID, VDAC1, and VDAC2) was constructed through univariate Cox regression, and patients were divided into two risk groups. The overall survival of patients in the high-risk group was significantly lower than of the patients in the low-risk group in the TCGA and GEO cohorts, indicating that the signature has a good predictive effect. The time-ROC curves revealed that the signature had a reliable predictive role in both the TCGA and GEO cohorts. Enrichment analysis showed that differential genes in the risk subgroups were associated with tumor immunity and antitumor drug sensitivity. We then constructed an mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA regulatory network, which identified lncRNA AL590666. 2/let-7c-5p/PPIA as a regulatory axis for LUAD. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to validate the expression of the 8-gene signature. In conclusion, necroptosis-related genes are important factors for predicting the prognosis of LUAD and potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one serious and common complication in diabetes without effective treatments. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) fights against a variety of cardiovascular diseases including DCM. Retinoic acid-related orphan receptor α (RORα) has protective effects on cardiovascular system. However, whether RORα mediates the protective effect of H2S against DCM remains unknown. The present research was to explore the roles and mechanisms of RORα in H2S against DCM. The study demonstrated that H2S donor sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) alleviated cell injury but enhanced RORα expression in high glucose (HG)-stimulated cardiomyocytes. However, NaHS no longer had the protective effect on attenuating cell damage and oxidative stress, improving mitochondrial membrane potential, inhibiting necroptosis and enhanced signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) Ser727 phosphorylation in HG-stimulated cardiomyocytes after RORα siRNA transfection. Moreover, NaHS improved cardiac function, attenuated myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis, alleviated oxidative stress, inhibited necroptosis, but increased STAT3 phosphorylation in wild type (WT) mice but not in RORα knockout mice (a spontaneous staggerer mice, sg/sg mice) with diabetes. Additionally, NaHS increased RORα promoter activity in cardiomyocytes with HG stimulation, which was related to the binding sites of E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1) in the upstream region of RORα promoter. NaHS enhanced E2F1 expression and increased the binding of E2F1 to RORα promoter in cardiomyocytes with HG stimulation. In sum, H2S promoted RORα transcription via E2F1 to alleviate necroptosis and protect against DCM. It is helpful to propose a novel therapeutic implication for DCM.

Abstract
Recent studies have found that receptor interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) can mediate CaMK Ⅱ phosphorylation and oxidation, open mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), and induce myocardial necroptosis. The increased expression or phosphorylation of RIPK3 is one of the important markers of necroptosis; Inhibition of CaMK Ⅱ phosphorylation or oxidation significantly reduces RIPK3 mediated myocardial necroptosis; Studies have shown that necroptosis plays an important role in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases; Using the selective inhibitor GSK '872 of RIPK3 can effectively inhibit the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases, and can reverse cardiovascular and cardiac dysfunction caused by overexpression of RIPK3. In this review, we provide a brief overview of the current knowledge on RIPK3 in mediating necroptosis, inflammatory response, and oxidative stress, and discussed the role of RIPK3 in cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, myocardial ischaemia, myocardial infarction, and heart failure.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease morbidity/mortality are increasing due to an aging population and the rising prevalence of diabetes and obesity. Therefore, innovative cardioprotective measures are required to reduce cardiovascular disease morbidity/mortality. The role of necroptosis in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MI-RI) is beyond doubt, but the molecular mechanisms of necroptosis remain incompletely elucidated. Growing evidence suggests that MI-RI frequently results from the superposition of multiple pathways, with autophagy, ferroptosis, and CypD-mediated mitochondrial damage, and necroptosis all contributing to MI-RI. Receptor-interacting protein kinases (RIPK1 and RIPK3) as well as mixed lineage kinase domain-like pseudokinase (MLKL) activation is accompanied by the activation of other signaling pathways, such as Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), NF-κB, and JNK-Bnip3. These pathways participate in the pathological process of MI-RI. Recent studies have shown that inhibitors of necroptosis can reduce myocardial inflammation, infarct size, and restore cardiac function. In this review, we will summarize the molecular mechanisms of necroptosis, the links between necroptosis and other pathways, and current breakthroughs in pharmaceutical therapies for necroptosis.

Abstract
Background Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) refers to the more severe damage that occurs in the previously ischemic myocardium after a short-term interruption of myocardial blood supply followed by restoration of blood flow within a certain period of time. MIRI has become a major challenge affecting the therapeutic efficacy of cardiovascular surgery. Methods A scientific literature search on MIRI-related papers published from 2000 to 2023 in the Web of Science Core Collection database was conducted. VOSviewer was used for bibliometric analysis to understand the scientific development and research hotspots in this field. Results A total of 5,595 papers from 81 countries/regions, 3,840 research institutions, and 26,202 authors were included. China published the most papers, but the United States had the most significant influence. Harvard University was the leading research institution, and influential authors included Lefer David J., Hausenloy Derek J., Yellon Derek M., and others. All keywords can be divided into four different directions: risk factors, poor prognosis, mechanisms and cardioprotection. Conclusion Research on MIRI is flourishing. It is necessary to conduct an in-depth investigation of the interaction between different mechanisms and multi-target therapy will be the focus and hotspot of MIRI research in the future.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke (IS) accounts for more than 80% of the total stroke, which represents the leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide. Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CI/RI) is a cascade of pathophysiological events following the restoration of blood flow and reoxygenation, which not only directly damages brain tissue, but also enhances a series of pathological signaling cascades, contributing to inflammation, further aggravate the damage of brain tissue. Paradoxically, there are still no effective methods to prevent CI/RI, since the detailed underlying mechanisms remain vague. Mitochondrial dysfunctions, which are characterized by mitochondrial oxidative stress, Ca2+ overload, iron dyshomeostasis, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) defects and mitochondrial quality control (MQC) disruption, are closely relevant to the pathological process of CI/RI. There is increasing evidence that mitochondrial dysfunctions play vital roles in the regulation of programmed cell deaths (PCDs) such as ferroptosis and PANoptosis, a newly proposed conception of cell deaths characterized by a unique form of innate immune inflammatory cell death that regulated by multifaceted PANoptosome complexes. In the present review, we highlight the mechanisms underlying mitochondrial dysfunctions and how this key event contributes to inflammatory response as well as cell death modes during CI/RI. Neuroprotective agents targeting mitochondrial dysfunctions may serve as a promising treatment strategy to alleviate serious secondary brain injuries. A comprehensive insight into mitochondrial dysfunctions-mediated PCDs can help provide more effective strategies to guide therapies of CI/RI in IS.

LoxBlock-1 or Curcumin attenuates liver, pancreas and cardiac ferroptosis, oxidative stress and injury in Ischemia/reperfusion-damaged rats by facilitating ACSL/GPx4 signaling. Tissue Cell 2023; 82:102114. [PMID: 37210761 DOI: 10.1016/j.tice.2023.102114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2022] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
In this study, the effects of the pretreatment of Curcumin and LoxBlock-1 on liver, pancreas, and cardiac dysfunction following Ischemia-Reperfusion-induced (IR) Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) were investigated through the mechanisms of oxidative stress and ferroptosis. Total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS) and oxidative stress index (OSI) parameters in the tissue were analyzed to investigate the oxidative stress occurring in the liver, pancreas, and heart, and Acyl-Coa synthetase long-chain family member (ACSL4). Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) enzyme levels were also analyzed by ELISA to investigate the effect on ferroptosis. In addition, hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed for histopathological examination of the tissues. As a result of biochemical analyzes, it was observed that oxidative stress parameters increased significantly in the IR group. In addition, while the ACSL4 enzyme level increased in the IR group in all tissues, the GPx4 enzyme level decreased. In the histopathological examination, it was observed that IR caused serious damage to the heart, liver, and pancreas tissues. The present study shows that Curcumin and LoxBlock-1 have a protective effect on the liver, pancreas, and cardiac ferroptosis following the effect on AKI. In addition, Curcumin was found to be more effective than LoxBlock-1 in I/R injury with its antioxidant property.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome has been associated in many studies with working in shifts. Even if the mechanistic details are not fully understood, forced sleep deprivation and exposure to light, as happens during night shifts, or irregular schedules with late or very early onset of the working program, lead to a sleep-wake rhythm misalignment, metabolic dysregulation and oxidative stress. The cyclic melatonin secretion is regulated by the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nuclei and light exposure. At a central level, melatonin promotes sleep and inhibits wake-signals. Beside this role, melatonin acts as an antioxidant and influences the functionality of the cardiovascular system and of different metabolic processes. This review presents data about the influence of night shifts on melatonin secretion and oxidative stress. Assembling data from epidemiological, experimental and clinical studies contributes to a better understanding of the pathological links between chronodisruption and the metabolic syndrome related to working in shifts.

Abstract
PGAM5 has been associated with the development of tumours, however, its function in gastric cancer (GC) remains unexplored. Here, we investigated the role and mechanism of PGAM5 in regulating GC. The results revealed that PGAM5 was upregulated in GC tissues and cell lines, which was correlated with tumour size and TNM stage. Moreover, PGAM5 knockdown inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion progression, whereas PGAM5 overexpression promoted the function of GC cells in vitro. PGAM5 also promoted the activation of the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway. Furthermore, MK-2206, an AKT inhibitor, reversed the proliferation and activation of the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway induced by PGAM5 knockdown in GC cells. In conclusion, PGAM5 promotes the proliferation of GC by positively regulating the activation of the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway in GC cells.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a high incidence worldwide that causes a heavy physical and psychological burden to patients. It is urgent to further reveal the pathological mechanism and effective treatment of SCI. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in the disease progression of SCI. As a mitochondrial membrane protein, phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5) is mainly involved in mitochondrial function and mitosis to modulate cellular physiological functions, but the roles of PGAM5 in spinal tissues remain to be unreported after SCI. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of PGAM5 in SCI mice and its relationship with neuroinflammation. The results showed that the mitochondrial membrane protein PGAM5 was involved in microglia activation after SCI, and PGAM5 deletion could improve mitochondrial dysfunction (including abnormal mtDNA, ATP synthases, and ATP levels, Cyt C expression, and ROS and rGSH levels) in spinal cord tissue after SCI, Arg1/iNOS mRNA level, iNOS expression, and pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-18 levels. In vitro, H2O2 increased TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-18 levels in BV2 cells, and PGAM5-sh and Nrf2 activators significantly reversed H2O2-induced iNOS expression and proinflammatory cytokine production. Furthermore, IP/Western blotting results revealed that PGAM5-sh treatment significantly reduced the interaction of PGAM5 with Nrf2 and enhanced the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 in BV2 cells. The data suggested that PGAM5 was involved in the cascade of oxidative stress and inflammatory response in microglia via facilitating the expression level of Nrf2 in the nucleus after SCI. It provided a reference for clarifying the pathological mechanism and therapeutic target of SCI.

Abstract
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common metabolic disorder. The aim of the present investigation was to identify gene signature specific to T2DM. Methods The next generation sequencing (NGS) dataset GSE81608 was retrieved from the gene expression omnibus (GEO) database and analyzed to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between T2DM and normal controls. Then, Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analysis, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, modules, miRNA (micro RNA)-hub gene regulatory network construction and TF (transcription factor)-hub gene regulatory network construction, and topological analysis were performed. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was also performed to verify the prognostic value of hub genes. Results A total of 927 DEGs (461 were up regulated and 466 down regulated genes) were identified in T2DM. GO and REACTOME results showed that DEGs mainly enriched in protein metabolic process, establishment of localization, metabolism of proteins, and metabolism. The top centrality hub genes APP, MYH9, TCTN2, USP7, SYNPO, GRB2, HSP90AB1, UBC, HSPA5, and SQSTM1 were screened out as the critical genes. ROC analysis provides prognostic value of hub genes. Conclusion The potential crucial genes, especially APP, MYH9, TCTN2, USP7, SYNPO, GRB2, HSP90AB1, UBC, HSPA5, and SQSTM1, might be linked with risk of T2DM. Our study provided novel insights of T2DM into genetics, molecular pathogenesis, and novel therapeutic targets.

Shenlian extract decreases mitochondrial autophagy to regulate mitochondrial function in microvascular to alleviate coronary artery no-reflow. Phytother Res 2023; 37:1864-1882. [PMID: 36740450 DOI: 10.1002/ptr.7703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Revised: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 11/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Shenlian (SL) extract has been proven to be effective in the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis and myocardial ischemia. However, the function and molecular mechanisms of SL on coronary artery no-reflow have not been fully elucidated. This study was designed to investigate the contribution of SL extract in repressing excessive mitochondrial autophagy to protect the mitochondrial function and prevent coronary artery no-reflow. The improvement of SL on coronary artery no-reflow was observed in vivo experiments and the molecular mechanisms were further explored through vitro experiments. First, a coronary artery no-reflow rat model was built by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery for 2 hr of ischemia, followed by 24 hr of reperfusion. Thioflavin S (6%, 1 ml/kg) was injected into the inferior vena cava to mark the no-reflow area. Transmission electron microscopy was performed to observe the cellular structure, mitochondrial structure, and mitochondrial autophagy of the endothelial cells. Immunofluorescence was used to observe the microvascular barrier function and microvascular inflammation. Cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) were isolated from rats. The CMECs were deprived of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 2 hr and reoxygenated for 4 hr to mimic the Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury-induced coronary artery no-reflow in vitro. Mitochondrial membrane potential was assessed using JC-1 dye. Intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels were determined using an ATP assay kit. The cell total reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and cell apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry. Colocalization of mitochondria and lysosomes indirectly indicated mitophagy. The representative ultrastructural morphologies of the autophagosomes and autolysosomes were also observed under transmission electron microscopy. The mitochondrial autophagy-related proteins (LC3II/I, P62, PINK, and Parkin) were analyzed using Western blot analysis. In vivo, results showed that, compared with the model group, SL could reduce the no-reflow area from 37.04 ± 9.67% to 18.31 ± 4.01% (1.08 g·kg-1 SL), 13.79 ± 4.77% (2.16 g·kg-1 SL), and 12.67 ± 2.47% (4.32 g·kg-1 SL). The extract also significantly increased the left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (FS) (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). The fluorescence intensities of VE-cadherin, which is a junctional protein that preserves the microvascular barrier function, decreased to ~74.05% of the baseline levels in the no-reflow rats and increased to 89.87%(1.08 g·kg-1 SL), 82.23% (2.16 g·kg-1 SL), and 89.69% (4.32 g·kg-1 SL) of the baseline levels by SL treatment. SL administration repressed the neutrophil migration into the myocardium. The oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) model was induced in vitro to mimic microvascular ischemia-reperfusion injury. The impaired mitochondrial function after OGD/R injury led to decreased ATP production, calcium overload, the excessive opening of the Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, and reduced ROS scavenging ability (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). The normal autophagosomes (double-membrane vacuoles with autophagic content) in the sham group were rarely found. The large morphology and autophagosomes were frequently observed in the model group. By contrast, SL inhibited the excessive activation of mitochondrial autophagy. The mitochondrial autophagy regulated by the PINK/Parkin pathway was excessively activated. However, administration of SL prevented the activation of the PINK/Parkin pathway and inhibited excessive mitochondrial autophagy to regulate mitochondrial dysfunction. Results also demonstrated that mitochondrial dysfunction stimulated endothelial cell barrier dysfunction, but Evans blue transmission was significantly decreased and transmembrane resistance was increased significantly by SL treatment (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). Carbonylcyanide-3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) could activate the PINK/Parkin pathway. CCCP reversed the regulation of SL on mitochondrial autophagy and mitochondrial function. SL could alleviate coronary artery no-reflow by protecting the microvasculature by regulating mitochondrial function. The underlying mechanism was related to decreased mitochondrial autophagy by the PINK/Parkin pathway.

Abstract
AIMS Recovery of blood flow is a therapeutic approach for myocardial infarction but paradoxically induces injury to the myocardium. Exosomes (exos) are pivotal mediators for intercellular communication that can be released by different cells and are involved in cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to explore the possible effects and mechanisms of miR-155-5p loaded by serum-derived exos in myocardial infarction reperfusion injury (MIRI). METHODS AND RESULTS Exos were isolated from mouse serum after induction of ischaemia reperfusion (I/R) and injected into I/R-treated mice to assess cardiac function, infarction size, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Primary cardiomyocytes were transfected with miR-155-5p inhibitor before treatment with oxygen-glucose deprivation and re-oxygenation (OGD/R) and exos derived from the serum of I/R-treated mice (I/R-Exos), in which Bcl-2, Bax, and cleaved-caspase-3 levels were detected. The interactions among miR-155-5p, NEDD4, and CypD were evaluated. miR-155-5p level was evidently increased in I/R-Exos than in exos from the serum of sham-operated mice (P < 0.05). In comparison with the I/R group, the I/R-Exos + I/R group had increased infarct size, elevated miR-155-5p expression, and boosted apoptotic rate in mouse myocardium (P < 0.05). In mice treated with I/R-Exos and I/R, miR-155-5p inhibition reduced cardiac infarct size and apoptosis (P < 0.05). NEDD4 was a target gene of miR-155-5p and promoted CypD ubiquitination. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was markedly increased in the miR-155-5p inhibitor + shNEDD4 + OGD/R group versus the miR-155-5p inhibitor + OGD/R group (P < 0.05), but decreased in the miR-155-5p inhibitor + shNEDD4 + shCypD + OGD/R group than in the miR-155-5p inhibitor + shNEDD4 + OGD/R group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS miR-155-5p in I/R-Exos may facilitate MIRI by inhibiting CypD ubiquitination via targeting NEDD4.

Phosphoglycerate mutase 5 initiates inflammation in acute kidney injury by triggering mitochondrial DNA release by dephosphorylating the pro-apoptotic protein Bax. Kidney Int 2023; 103:115-133.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a worldwide public health problem characterized by excessive inflammation with no specific therapy in clinic. Inflammation is not only a feature of AKI but also an essential promoter for kidney deterioration. Phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5) was up-regulated and positively correlated with kidney dysfunction in human biopsy samples and mouse kidneys with AKI. PGAM5 knockout in mice significantly alleviated ischemia/reperfusion-induced kidney injury, mitochondrial abnormality and production of inflammatory cytokines. Elevated PGAM5 was found to be mainly located in kidney tubular epithelial cells and was also related to inflammatory response. Knockdown of PGAM5 inhibited the hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced cytosolic release of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and binding of mtDNA with the cellular DNA receptor cGAS in cultured cells. cGAS deficiency also attenuated the inflammation and kidney injury in AKI. Mechanistically, as a protein phosphatase, PGAM5 was able to dephosphorylate the pro-apoptotic protein Bax and facilitate its translocation to mitochondrial membranes, and then initiate increased mitochondrial membrane permeability and release of mtDNA. Leaked mtDNA recognized by cGAS then initiated its downstream-coupled STING pathway, a component of the innate immune system that functions to detect the presence of cytosolic DNA. Thus, our results demonstrated mtDNA release induced by PGAM5-mediated Bax dephosphorylation and the activation of cGAS-STING pathway as critical determinants of inflammation and kidney injury. Hence, targeting this axis may be useful for treating AKI.

Suppression of obesity by melatonin through increasing energy expenditure and accelerating lipolysis in mice fed a high-fat diet. Nutr Diabetes 2022; 12:42. [PMID: 36207302 PMCID: PMC9546869 DOI: 10.1038/s41387-022-00222-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2021] [Revised: 08/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Backgrounds/objectives Melatonin promotes brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity, leading to body mass reduction and energy expenditure. However, the mechanisms governing these beneficial effects are not well-established. This study aimed to assess the effects of (1) melatonin on BAT and energy metabolism, and (2) fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) in BAT-mediated thermogenesis. Methods Male C57BL/6 J mice received a high-fat diet (HFD) or normal chow, accompanied by intraperitoneal injection of 20 mg/kg melatonin for 12 weeks. FGF21−/− mice consumed an HFD with or without melatonin for 8 weeks. Results Melatonin attenuated weight gain, insulin resistance, adipocyte hypertrophy, inflammation, and hepatic steatosis induced by the HFD and increased energy expenditure. Furthermore, melatonin improved cold tolerance by increasing BAT uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) expression and producing heat. Notably, melatonin resulted in a shift in energy metabolism favouring the utilization of fat, and it increased FGF21 in circulating and metabolic tissues and skeletal muscle phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase. However, melatonin did not protect against obesity, insulin resistance, and energy expenditure in HFD-fed FGF21−/− mice. Conclusions Melatonin suppressed obesity and insulin resistance resulting from the HFD by enhancing BAT activity and energy expenditure, and these effects were dependent on FGF21.

Abstract
Melatonin is an important biomolecule found in diverse groups of organisms. Under different abiotic stresses, the synthesis of melatonin is markedly increased suggesting pivotal roles of melatonin in plants enduring stresses. Being an endogenous signaling molecule with antioxidant activity, melatonin alters many physiological responses and is found to be involved in regulating DNA damage responses. However, the molecular mechanisms of melatonin in response to DNA damage have not yet been studied. The present review aims to provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of melatonin in response to DNA damage in plants. We propose that the MAP kinase pathway is involved in regulating melatonin dependent response of plants under DNA damage stress. Where melatonin might activate MAPK via H2 O2 or Ca2+ dependent pathways. The activated MAPK in turn might phosphorylate and activate SOG1 and repressor type MYBs to mitigate DNA damage under abiotic stress.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease, is a leading cause of death worldwide. Vascular endothelial cells (VECs), vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and macrophages play extremely vital roles in the formation of atherosclerotic plaques and subsequent atherosclerosis. Necroptosis, a caspase-independent programmed cell necrosis, occurs in advanced atherosclerotic plaques and has been implicated in VEC, VSMC and macrophage function. Although necroptosis may have considered as a defensive line against intracellular infection, it can induce a pro-inflammatory state, which will accelerate the disease process. Accordingly, necroptosis plays an important pathophysiologic role. In this review, we explore the role of necroptosis in VECs, VSMCs and macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques and their connection to atherosclerosis.

Neuroimmune Mechanisms Underlying Neuropathic Pain: The Potential Role of TNF-α-Necroptosis Pathway. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23137191.

Abstract
The neuroimmune mechanism underlying neuropathic pain has been extensively studied. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), a key pro-inflammatory cytokine that drives cytokine storm and stimulates a cascade of other cytokines in pain-related pathways, induces and modulates neuropathic pain by facilitating peripheral (primary afferents) and central (spinal cord) sensitization. Functionally, TNF-α controls the balance between cell survival and death by inducing an inflammatory response and two programmed cell death mechanisms (apoptosis and necroptosis). Necroptosis, a novel form of programmed cell death, is receiving increasing attraction and may trigger neuroinflammation to promote neuropathic pain. Chronic pain is often accompanied by adverse pain-associated emotional reactions and cognitive disorders. Overproduction of TNF-α in supraspinal structures such as the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and hippocampus plays an important role in pain-associated emotional disorders and memory deficits and also participates in the modulation of pain transduction. At present, studies reporting on the role of the TNF-α–necroptosis pathway in pain-related disorders are lacking. This review indicates the important research prospects of this pathway in pain modulation based on its role in anxiety, depression and memory deficits associated with other neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, we have summarized studies related to the underlying mechanisms of neuropathic pain mediated by TNF-α and discussed the role of the TNF-α–necroptosis pathway in detail, which may represent an avenue for future therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury contributes to disability and mortality worldwide. Due to the complicated mechanisms and lack of proper therapeutic targets, few interventions are available that specifically target the pathogenesis of IR injury. Regulated cell death (RCD) of endothelial and parenchymal cells is recognized as the promising intervening target. Recent advances in IR injury suggest that small molecules exhibit beneficial effects on various RCD against IR injury, including apoptosis, necroptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and parthanatos. Here, we describe the mechanisms behind these novel promising therapeutic targets and explain the machinery powering the small molecules. These small molecules exert protection by targeting endothelial or parenchymal cells to alleviate IR injury. Therapies of the ideal combination of small molecules targeting multiple cell types have shown potent synergetic therapeutic effects, laying the foundation for novel strategies to attenuate IR injury.

Abstract
The pineal gland is a neuroendocrine gland which produces melatonin, a neuroendocrine hormone with critical physiological roles in the circadian rhythm and sleep-wake cycle. Melatonin has been shown to possess anti-oxidant activity and neuroprotective properties. Numerous studies have shown that melatonin has significant functions in cardiovascular disease, and may have anti-aging properties. The ability of melatonin to decrease primary hypertension needs to be more extensively evaluated. Melatonin has shown significant benefits in reducing cardiac pathology, and preventing the death of cardiac muscle in response to ischemia-reperfusion in rodent species. Moreover, melatonin may also prevent the hypertrophy of the heart muscle under some circumstances, which in turn would lessen the development of heart failure. Several currently used conventional drugs show cardiotoxicity as an adverse effect. Recent rodent studies have shown that melatonin acts as an anti-oxidant and is effective in suppressing heart damage mediated by pharmacologic drugs. Therefore, melatonin has been shown to have cardioprotective activity in multiple animal and human studies. Herein, we summarize the most established benefits of melatonin in the cardiovascular system with a focus on the molecular mechanisms of action.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis is a common inflammatory disease, mainly induced by bacterial pathogens, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus agalactiae. Mastitis has negative effects on the production and quality of milk, resulting in huge economic losses. Melatonin, which is synthesized and secreted by the pineal gland and other organs, is ubiquitous throughout nature and has different effects on different tissues. Melatonin is crucial in modulating oxidative stress, immune responses, and cell autophagy and apoptosis, via receptor-mediated or receptor-independent signaling pathways. The potent antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities of melatonin and its metabolites suggest that melatonin can be used to treat various infections. This article reviews the potential for melatonin to alleviate bovine mastitis through its pleiotropic effect on reducing oxidative stress, inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokines, and regulating the activation of NF-κB, STATs, and their cascade reactions. Therefore, it is promising that melatonin supplementation may be an alternative to antibiotics for the treatment of bovine mastitis.

Abstract
Although acute melatonin treatment effectively reduces cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in lean rats by modulating melatonin receptor 2 (MT2), there is no information regarding the temporal effects of melatonin administration during cardiac I/R injury in prediabetic obese rats. Prediabetic obese rats induced by chronic consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) were used. The rats underwent a cardiac I/R surgical procedure (30-min of ischemia, followed by 120-min of reperfusion) and were randomly assigned to receive either vehicle or melatonin treatment. In the melatonin group, rats were divided into 3 different subgroups: (1) pretreatment, (2) treatment during ischemic period, (3) treatment at the reperfusion onset. In the pretreatment subgroup either a nonspecific MT blocker (Luzindole) or specific MT2 blocker (4-PPDOT) was also given to the rats prior to melatonin treatment. Pretreatment with melatonin (10 mg/kg) effectively reduced cardiac I/R injury by reducing infarct size, arrhythmia, and LV dysfunction. Reduction in impaired mitochondrial function, mitochondrial dynamic balance, oxidative stress, defective autophagy, and apoptosis were observed in rats pretreated with melatonin. Unfortunately, the cardioprotective benefits were not observed when 10-mg/kg of melatonin was acutely administered to the rats after cardiac ischemia. Thus, we increased the dose of melatonin to 20 mg/kg, and it was administered to the rats during ischemia or at the onset of reperfusion. The results showed that 20-mg/kg of melatonin effectively reduced cardiac I/R injury to a similar extent to the 10-mg/kg pretreatment regimen. The MT2 blocker inhibited the protective effects of melatonin. Acute melatonin treatment during cardiac I/R injury exerted protective effects in prediabetic obese rats. However, a higher dose of melatonin is required when given after the onset of cardiac ischemia. These effects of melatonin were mainly mediated through activation of MT2.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease, especially coronary artery disease and stroke, kills around one-third of the world’s population, and myocardial infarction, a primary symptom of coronary heart disease, is a major worldwide health problem. Cardiovascular disease research has historically focused on promoting angiogenesis following myocardial damage. Myocardial vascular repair is crucial for improving myocardial infarction prognosis. Endothelial cells, the largest population of nonmyocytes within myocardial tissue, play an important role in angiogenesis. In recent years, different types of programmed cell death such as apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and autophagy have been described and found to be linked with cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, and myocarditis. This will have important implications for reforming the treatment strategy of cardiovascular diseases. Different types of cell death of endothelial cells in myocardial infarction have been proposed, the roles and mechanisms of endothelial cell death in myocardial infarction are summarized in this review, and endothelial cell death inhibition as a therapeutic technique for treating myocardial infarction might be advantageous to human health.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction is one of the primary causes of mortality in patients with coronary heart disease worldwide. Early treatment of acute myocardial infarction restores blood supply of ischemic myocardium and decreases the mortality risk. However, when the interrupted myocardial blood supply is recovered within a certain period of time, it causes more serious damage to the original ischemic myocardium; this is known as myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI). The pathophysiological mechanisms leading to MIRI are associated with oxidative stress, intracellular calcium overload, energy metabolism disorder, apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, autophagy, pyroptosis, necroptosis and ferroptosis. These interplay with one another and directly or indirectly lead to aggravation of the effect. In the past, apoptosis and autophagy have attracted more attention but necroptosis and ferroptosis also serve key roles. However, the mechanism of MIRI has not been fully elucidated. The present study reviews the mechanisms underlying MIRI. Based on current understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of MIRI, the association between cell death-associated signaling pathways were elaborated, providing direction for investigation of novel targets in clinical treatment.

Necrosis is one of the methods of programmed cell death and cardiomyocyte necrosis occurs in the process of reperfusion. The activation of CD137 signal is involved in various diseases. In vivo experiments proved that CD137-/- mice have less heart damage than wild-type mice after ischemia-reperfusion. In vitro experiments, we found that after inhibiting the CD137 signal, the degree of necrosis of HL-1 cells was reduced and it was caused by reducing the Ca2 + overload in the mitochondria, which caused the reduction of mPTP opening. Ca2 + overload in mitochondria induced by activation of CD137 signal was caused by increased Ca2 + released into mitochondria by activation of IP3R and increased MCU level. These results indicate that CD137 signaling aggravates cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury by inducing myocardial cell necrosis.

Abstract
Background: Sepsis, a serious condition with high mortality, usually causes sepsis associated encephalopathy (SAE) that involves neuronal cell death. However, the cell death programs involved and their underlying mechanisms are not clear. This study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanisms of different cell death programs in SAE. Methods: A neonatal rat model of SAE was established by cecal ligation and perforation. Survival rate and vital signs (mean arterial pressure and heart rate) were monitored, nerve reflexes were evaluated, and cortical pathological changes were observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. The expression of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis (PANoptosis)-related proteins, mitogen- activated protein kinase (MAPK), and its upstream regulator toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) were detected. The expression of TLR9 in neurons was observed by immunofluorescence staining. The ultrastructure of neurons was observed by transmission electron microscope. Results: First, PANoptosis was found in cortical nerve cells of the SAE rats. Meanwhile, the subunits of MAPKs, p38 MAPK, Jun N- terminal kinase, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) were activated. After pharmacologically inhibiting each of the subunits, only p38 MAPK was found to be associated with PANoptosis. Furthermore, blocking the p38 MAPK signaling pathway activated necroptosis but inhibited apoptosis and pyroptosis. When necroptosis was pharmacologically inhibited, apoptosis and pyroptosis were reactivated. Finally, we found that the expression of TLR9, a regulator of MAPKs, was significantly increased in this model. After down-regulation of TLR9, p38 MAPK, and ERK signaling pathways were inhibited, which led to the inhibition of PANoptosis. Further analysis found that down-regulation of TLR9 improved the survival rate and reduced the pathological changes in SAE rats. Conclusions: Our study showed that the programs comprising PANoptosis are activated simultaneously in SAE rats. TLR9 activated PANoptosis through the p38 MAPK signaling pathway. TLR9 may work as a potential target for SAE treatment.

Abstract
Cardiac microvascular dysfunction is associated with cardiac hypertrophy and can eventually lead to heart failure. Dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has recently been recognized as one of the key mechanisms involved in cardiac hypertrophy. However, the potential roles and underlying mechanisms of lncRNAs in cardiac microvascular dysfunction have not been explicitly delineated. Our results confirmed that cardiac microvascular dysfunction was related to cardiac hypertrophy and ferroptosis of cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) occurred during cardiac hypertrophy. Using a combination of in vivo and in vitro studies, we identified a lncRNA AABR07017145.1, named as lncRNA AAB for short, and revealed that lncRNA AAB was upregulated in the hearts of cardiac hypertrophy rats as well as in the Ang II-induced CMECs. Importantly, we found that lncRNA AAB sponged and sequestered miR-30b-5p to induce the imbalance of MMP9/TIMP1, which enhanced the activation of transferrin receptor 1 (TFR-1) and then eventually led to the ferroptosis of CMECs. Moreover, we have developed a delivery system based on neutrophil membrane (NM)-camouflaged mesoporous silica nanocomplex (MSN) for inhibition of cardiac hypertrophy, indicating the potential role of silenced lncRNA AAB (si-AAB) and overexpressed miR-30b-5p as the novel therapy for cardiac hypertrophy.

Postconditioning with Irisin Attenuates Lung Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Suppressing Ferroptosis via Induction of the Nrf2/HO-1 Signal Axis. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:9911167.

Abstract
Iron-dependent lipid peroxidation causes ferroptosis. This study was aimed at verifying that irisin postconditioning can inhibit ferroptosis and minimize lung ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) damage via activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signal axis. We constructed a murine model of I/R lung damage. At the onset of reperfusion, irisin, ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1, and ferroptosis inducer Fe-citrate were all administered. We discovered that irisin could reduce lung I/R injury, consistent with ferrostatin-1's action. Furthermore, irisin suppressed ferroptosis in lung I/R damage, as evidenced by lower ROS, MDA, and Fe2+, as well as alterations in critical protein expression (GPX4 and ACSL4). However, Fe-citrate abolished the protective effects of irisin. Transcriptome research found that irisin increased the mRNA levels of Nrf2 and HO-1. Thus, we used siRNA to investigate the role of the Nrf2/HO-1 axis in irisin-mediated protection against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) damage in MLE-12 cells. Irisin consistently reduced ferroptosis and improved mitochondrial dysfunction caused by H/R. Irisin's cytoprotective function was eliminated when Nrf2 was silenced. As a result, irisin postconditioning may protect against lung I/R damage by suppressing ferroptosis via the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling axis.

Abstract
Several drug targets have been amenable to drug discovery pursuit not until the characterization of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP), a pore with an undefined molecular identity that forms on the inner mitochondrial membrane upon mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) under the influence of calcium overload and oxidative stress. The opening of the pore which is presumed to cause cell death in certain human diseases also has implications under physiological parlance. Different models for this pore have been postulated following its first identification in the last six decades. The mitochondrial community has witnessed many protein candidates such as; voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT), Mitochondrial phosphate carrier (PiC), Spastic Paralegin (SPG7), disordered proteins, and F1Fo ATPase. However, genetic studies have cast out most of these candidates with only F1Fo ATPase currently under intense argument. Cyclophilin D (CyPD) remains the widely accepted positive regulator of the MPTP known to date, but no drug candidate has emerged as its inhibitor, raising concern issues for therapeutics. Thus, in this review, we discuss various models of MPTP reported with the hope of stimulating further research in this field. We went beyond the classical description of the MPTP to ascribe a 'two-edged sword property' to the pore for therapeutic function in human disease because its inhibition and activation have pharmacological relevance. We suggested putative proteins upstream to CyPD that can regulate its activity and prevent cell deaths in neurodegenerative disease and ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are differentially expressed in various cardiovascular disease including myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, their functional impact on cardiomyocyte cell death, in particular, in necrotic forms of death remains elusive. In this study, we found that the level of mmu_circ_000338, a cardiac- necroptosis-associated circRNA (CNEACR), was reduced in hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) exposed cardiomyocytes and I/R-injured mice hearts. The enforced expression of CNEACR attenuated the necrotic form of cardiomyocyte death caused by H/R and suppressed of myocardial necrosis in I/R injured mouse heart, which was accompanied by a marked reduction of myocardial infarction size and improved cardiac function. Mechanistically, CNEACR directly binds to histone deacetylase (HDAC7) in the cytoplasm and interferes its nuclear entry. This leads to attenuation of HDAC7-dependent suppression of forkhead box protein A2 (Foxa2) transcription, which can repress receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (Ripk3) gene by binding to its promoter region. In addition, CNEACR-mediated upregulation of FOXA2 inhibited RIPK3-dependent necrotic/necroptotic death of cardiomyocytes. Our study reveals that circRNAs such as CNEACR can regulate the cardiomyocyte necroptosis associated activity of HDACs, promotes cell survival and improves cardiac function in I/R-injured heart. Hence, the CNEACR/HDAC7/Foxa2/ RIPK3 axis could be an efficient target for alleviating myocardial damage caused by necroptotic death in ischemia heart diseases.

NR4A1 Promotes LPS-Induced Acute Lung Injury through Inhibition of Opa1-Mediated Mitochondrial Fusion and Activation of PGAM5-Related Necroptosis. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:6638244.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction and necroptosis have been perceived as the primary molecular mechanisms underscoring acute lung injury. Meanwhile, nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1 (NR4A1) is considered a regulator of inflammation-related endothelial injury in lung tissue although the downstream molecular events remain elusive. In this study, we employed NR4A1-/- mice to decipher the role of NR4A1 in the onset and progression of acute lung injury with a focus on mitochondrial damage and necroptosis. Our results demonstrated that NR4A1 was significantly upregulated in lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) treated lung tissues. Knockout of NR4A1 overtly improved lung tissue morphology, inhibited inflammation, and reduced oxidative stress in LPS-treated lung tissue. A cell signaling study suggested that NR4A1 deletion repressed levels of PGAM5 and attenuated LPS-mediated necroptosis in primary murine alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cells, the effects of which were mitigated by PGAM5 overexpression. Moreover, LPS-mediated mitochondrial injury including mitochondrial membrane potential collapse and mitochondrial oxidative stress was drastically improved by NR4A1 deletion. Furthermore, NR4A1 deletion preserved mitochondrial homeostasis through activation of Opa1-related mitochondrial fusion. Silencing of Opa1 triggered mitochondrial dysfunction in NR4A1-deleted ATII cells. Taken together, our data identified NR4A1 as a novel regulator of LPS-related acute lung injury through regulation of mitochondrial fusion and necroptosis, indicating therapeutic promises of targeting NR4A1 in the treatment of acute lung injury in clinical practice.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a serious disease which is responsible for major death in the elderly. Myocardial oxidative stress contributes to pathophysiology of MI. The nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1 (NR4A1) has been shown to regulate oxidative stress in several diseases. However, the precise roles of NR4A1 in MI-induced oxidative stress in elderly remain unknown. In present study, the effects of NR4A1 deficiency on oxidative stress were evaluated in aged MI mice. A MI aged mice model was established in wide-type (WT) and NR4A1 deficient mice. The expression of NR4A1, oxidative stress markers was measured. The myocardial functions were monitored. NR4A1 was upregulated in aged MI WT mice, which was positively correlated to the elevated oxidative stress. NR4A1 deficient MI mice had significantly decreased expression of oxidative stress markers malondialdehyde and hydrogen peroxide while had improved myocardial function. In summary, NR4A1 deficiency could attenuate oxidative stress in aged MI mice.

Abstract
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the main causes of death worldwide. In the past few decades, several in-depth research on the pathological mechanisms and effective treatment methods for CHD have been conducted. At present, the intervention of a variety of therapeutic drugs and treatment technologies have greatly reduced the burden on global public health. However, severe arrhythmia and myocardial fibrosis accompanying CHD in the later stages need to be addressed urgently. Mitochondria are important structural components for energy production and the main sites for aerobic respiration in cells. Mitochondria are involved in arrhythmia, myocardial fibrosis, and acute CHD and play a crucial role in regulating myocardial ischemia/hypoxia. Mitochondrial dysfunction or mitophagy disorders (including receptor-dependent mitophagy and receptor-independent mitophagy) play an important role in the pathogenesis of CHD, especially mitophagy. Mitophagy acts as a “mediator” in the inflammatory damage of cardiomyocytes or vascular endothelial cells and can clear mitochondria or organelles damaged by inflammation under normal conditions. We reviewed experimental advances providing evidence that mitochondrial homeostasis or mitochondrial quality control are important in the pathological mechanism of CHD. Further, we reviewed and summarized relevant regulatory drugs that target mitochondrial function and quality control.

Abstract
Melatonin has been proven to reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury. However, in most studies, melatonin was administered prior to MI/R, thus, the results lack clinical significance in patients with acute myocardial infarction. We hypothesize that melatonin posttreatment at different times has different curative effects. Administered of Melatonin (150 μM) at different times after the onset of reoxygenation (t=-15, 0, 5, 10, 15, 30 min). Cellular apoptosis, oxidative stress and mitochondrial function were assessed. Mitophagy-related protein levels, the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) activity were also measured. A/R injury upregulated mitophagy, which was associated with increased cellular apoptosis, oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Melatonin posttreatment (t= -15, 0, 5, 10, 15, 30 min) significantly inhibited excessive mitophagy after A/R injury, reduced cellular apoptosis and oxidative stress, restored mitochondrial function and MMP, and restrained mPTP opening. The therapeutic time window in which melatonin posttreatment protected H9c2 cells against A/R injury was large (from -15 to 30 min after the onset of reperfusion), but the earlier the melatonin administration was, the better its protective effect was. This mechanism is likely due to a reduction in mPTP activity and MMP collapse, which lead to the inhibition of mitophagy. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
