Abstract
The human population is ageing worldwide. The World Health Organization estimated that the world's population of people aged 60 years and older will increase to at least 30%, coinciding with a growing frequency of cognitive and cardiovascular disease. Recently, in preclinical studies platelet Factor 4 (PF4) was presented as a pro-cognitive factor. This molecule is released by platelets in the circulation and could be present in blood products destined for transfusion. We wondered if PF4 levels are correlated to the age of the blood donor or to the storage time of platelet concentrates (PCs) intended for transfusion? We observed higher levels of PF4 in PCs from elderly donors compared to younger donors, while PC storage time did not determine PF4 levels expression.

Proteomics reveals the underlying mechanism by which the first uneven division affects embryonic development in pig. Theriogenology 2023; 210:42-52. [PMID: 37473595 DOI: 10.1016/j.theriogenology.2023.07.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2023] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/14/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
One of the most typical abnormal cleavage patterns during early embryonic development is uneven division, but the first uneven division of pig zygote is common. Uneven division results in different daughter cell sizes and an uneven distribution of organelles such as lipid droplet, mitochondria, but the developmental capacity of daughter cells and proteomic changes of daughter cells are still unclear. Therefore, the developmental ability and proteomic quantification were investigated on blastomeres from even division (ED) or uneven division (UD) embryos at 2-cell stage in the present study. Firstly, the developmental ability was affected by the blastomeric size, when compared with medium blastomeres (MBs), the large blastomeres (LBs) with the higher cleavage rate but the small blastomeres (SBs) with the lower rate was observed. Subsequently, proteomic analysis was performed on blastomeres of LBs, MBs and SBs, a total of 109 DEPs were detected, which were involved in protein metabolism and processing, energy metabolism and ribosome. In particular, DEPs in LBs vs. SBs were focused on RNA binding and actin cytoskeletal tissue. Two protein-dense networks associated with RNA binding and cytoskeleton were revealed by further protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis of DEPs in LBs vs. SBs, that DDX1 related to RNA binding and ACTB related to cytoskeleton were confirmed in UD embryos. Therefore, a briefly information of DEPs in blastomeres of 2-cell stage pig embryos was described in the present study, and it further confirmed that the formation of uneven division of the first cell cycle of pig embryos might be controlled by the cytoskeleton; the developmental capacity of daughter cells might be affected by the energy metabolism, RNA binding and ribosome, and further account for the developmental potential of the whole embryo.

Novel CSF biomarkers for diagnosis and integrated analysis of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus: based on antibody profiling. Arthritis Res Ther 2023; 25:165. [PMID: 37684700 PMCID: PMC10486090 DOI: 10.1186/s13075-023-03146-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE), with various morbidities and multiple manifestations in the central nervous system, remains a limited standard for diagnosis. Our study was to discover novel biomarkers for improving the diagnostic efficiency for NPSLE. METHODS We performed a quantitative planar protein antibody microarray to screen 1000 proteins in cerebrospinal fluid from controls, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, non-NPSLE) patients, and NPSLE patients. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) as candidate biomarkers were developed into a custom multiplexed protein antibody array for further validation in an independent larger cohort. Subsequently, we used least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression (LASSO) analysis and multivariable logistic regression analysis for optimizing feature selection and constructing a diagnostic model. A receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was generated to assess the effectiveness of the models. RESULTS The expression of 29 proteins in CSF was significantly altered in the comparison of the three groups. We selected 17 proteins as candidate biomarkers in accordance with protein interaction analysis. In the larger cohort, we identified 5 DEPs as biomarkers for NPSLE, including TCN2, CST6, KLK5, L-selectin, and Trappin-2. The diagnostic model included 3 hub proteins (CST6, TCN2, KLK5) and was best at discriminating NPSLE from SLE patients. These CSF biomarkers were also highly associated with disease activity. In addition, there were 6 molecules with remarkable changes in NPSLE CSF and hippocampus, which indicated the consistency of the environment in the brain and the promising molecular targets in the pathogenesis of NPSLE. CONCLUSIONS The dual-chips screening strategy demonstrated KLK5, L-selectin, Trappin-2, TCN2, and CST6 as CSF biomarkers for diagnosing NPSLE.

Abstract
Identifying therapeutics to delay, and potentially reverse, age-related cognitive decline is critical in light of the increased incidence of dementia-related disorders forecasted in the growing older population1. Here we show that platelet factors transfer the benefits of young blood to the ageing brain. Systemic exposure of aged male mice to a fraction of blood plasma from young mice containing platelets decreased neuroinflammation in the hippocampus at the transcriptional and cellular level and ameliorated hippocampal-dependent cognitive impairments. Circulating levels of the platelet-derived chemokine platelet factor 4 (PF4) (also known as CXCL4) were elevated in blood plasma preparations of young mice and humans relative to older individuals. Systemic administration of exogenous PF4 attenuated age-related hippocampal neuroinflammation, elicited synaptic-plasticity-related molecular changes and improved cognition in aged mice. We implicate decreased levels of circulating pro-ageing immune factors and restoration of the ageing peripheral immune system in the beneficial effects of systemic PF4 on the aged brain. Mechanistically, we identified CXCR3 as a chemokine receptor that, in part, mediates the cellular, molecular and cognitive benefits of systemic PF4 on the aged brain. Together, our data identify platelet-derived factors as potential therapeutic targets to abate inflammation and rescue cognition in old age.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment (CI) is a common neurological disease resulting from traumatic brain injury (TBI). Trigeminal nerve stimulation (TNS) is an emerging, non-invasive, and effective neuromodulation therapy especially for patients suffering from brain function disorders. However, the treatment and recovery mechanisms of TNS remain poorly understood. By using combined advanced technologies, we revealed here that the neuroprotective potential of TNS to improve CI caused by TBI. The study results found that 40Hz TNS treatment has the ability to improve CI in TBI mice and communicates with central nervous system via the trigeminal ganglion (TG). Transsynaptic virus experiments revealed that TG is connected to the hippocampus (HPC) through the corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons of paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN) and the dopamine transporter (DAT) neurons of substantia nigra pars compacta/ventral tegmental area (SNc/VTA). Mechanistically, the data showed that TNS can increase the release of dopamine in the HPC by activating the following neural circuit: TG→CRH+ PVN→DAT+ SNc/VTA → HPC. Bulk RNA sequencing confirmed changes in the expression of dopamine-related genes in the HPC. This work preliminarily explains the efficacy and mechanism of TNS and adds to the increasing evidence demonstrating that nerve stimulation is an effective method to treat neurological diseases. DATA AVAILABILITY: The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author on reasonable request.

Abstract
Background Dysregulation of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) expression is related to aging and age-associated neurodegenerative diseases, and the lncRNA expression profile in the aging hippocampus is not well characterized. In the present investigation, the changed mRNAs and lncRNAs were confirmed via deep RNA sequencing. GO and KEGG pathway analyses were conducted to investigate the principal roles of the clearly dysregulated mRNAs and lncRNAs. Subsequently, through the prediction of miRNAs via which mRNAs and lncRNAs bind together, a competitive endogenous RNA network was constructed. Results A total of 447 lncRNAs and 182 mRNAs were upregulated, and 385 lncRNAs and 144 mRNAs were downregulated. Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction validated the reliability of mRNA and lncRNA sequencing. KEGG pathway and GO analyses revealed that differentially expressed (DE) mRNAs were associated with cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), the p53 signaling pathway (SP), phagosomes, PPAR SP and ECM—receptor interactions. KEGG pathway and GO analyses showed that the target genes of the DE lncRNAs were related to cellular senescence, the p53 signaling pathway, leukocyte transendothelial migration and tyrosine metabolism. Coexpression analyses showed that 561 DE lncRNAs were associated with DE mRNAs. A total of 58 lncRNA–miRNA–mRNA target pairs were confirmed in this lncRNA‒miRNA‒mRNA network, comprising 10 mRNAs, 13 miRNAs and 38 lncRNAs. Conclusions We found specific lncRNAs and mRNAs in the hippocampus of natural aging model rats, as well as abnormal regulatory ceRNA networks. Our outcomes help explain the pathogenesis of brain aging and provide direction for further research.

Abstract
The problem of aging is mainly the increase of age-related diseases, and elderly patients have longer hospitalization and worse prognosis. Poorer nutritional status and immunosenescence may be predisposing and severe factors. The mechanism of the high incidence of diseases and poor prognosis behind aging is complex. Finding suitable aging models is of great significance to find strategies to prevent aging related events. In this study, the relationship between thyrotoxicosis and aging was investigated in mice. The results of routine blood tests and flow cytometry showed that immunosenescence occurred in thyrotoxicosis mice, which was characterized by a significant decrease in neutrophils, lymphocytes, CD4+/CD8+ and CD4+IFN-γ+ lymphocytes. Biochemical examination results showed that there were hypocholesterolemia, hypolipoproteinemia, and hyperlipidemia in thyrotoxicosis mice. Serum proteomics analysis showed that the downregulation of complement and coagulation proteins was another manifestation of declined immunity. Moreover, proteomics analysis showed that many downregulated proteins were related to homeostasis, mainly transport proteins. Their downregulation led to the disturbance of osmotic pressure, ion homeostasis, vitamin utilization, lipid transport, hyaluronic acid processing, and pH maintenance. Serum metabolomics analysis provided more detailed evidence of homeostasis disturbance, especially lipid metabolism disorder, including the downregulation of cholesterol, vitamin D, bile acids, docosanoids, and the upregulation of glucocorticoids, triglycerides, sphingolipids, and free fatty acids. The upregulated lipid metabolites were related to lipotoxicity, which might be one cause of immunosenescence and many aging related syndromes. This study provides evidence for the aging model of thyrotoxicosis mice, which can be used for exploring anti-aging drugs and strategies.

Multimerin-1 and cancer: a review. Biosci Rep 2022; 42:230760.

Abstract
Multimerin-1 (MMRN1) is a platelet protein with a role in haemostasis and coagulation. It is also present in endothelial cells (ECs) and the extracellular matrix (ECM), where it may be involved in cell adhesion, but its molecular functions and protein–protein interactions in these cellular locations have not been studied in detail yet. In recent years, MMRN1 has been identified as a differentially expressed gene (DEG) in various cancers and it has been proposed as a possible cancer biomarker. Some evidence suggest that MMRN1 expression is regulated by methylation, protein interactions, and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in different cancers. This raises the questions if a functional role of MMRN1 is being targeted during cancer development, and if MMRN1’s differential expression pattern correlates with cancer progression. As a result, it is timely to review the current state of what is known about MMRN1 to help inform future research into MMRN1’s molecular mechanisms in cancer.

Aging Cell 2021; 20:e13325.

Abstract
The identification of plasma proteins that systematically change with age and, independent of chronological age, predict accelerated decline of health is an expanding area of research. Circulating proteins are ideal translational "omics" since they are final effectors of physiological pathways and because physicians are accustomed to use information of plasma proteins as biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and tracking the effectiveness of treatments. Recent technological advancements, including mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics, multiplexed proteomic assay using modified aptamers (SOMAscan), and Proximity Extension Assay (PEA, O-Link), have allowed for the assessment of thousands of proteins in plasma or other biological matrices, which are potentially translatable into new clinical biomarkers and provide new clues about the mechanisms by which aging is associated with health deterioration and functional decline. We carried out a detailed literature search for proteomic studies performed in different matrices (plasma, serum, urine, saliva, tissues) and species using multiple platforms. Herein, we identified 232 proteins that were age-associated across studies. Enrichment analysis of the 232 age-associated proteins revealed metabolic pathways previously connected with biological aging both in animal models and in humans, most remarkably insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling, mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK), hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1), cytokine signaling, Forkhead Box O (FOXO) metabolic pathways, folate metabolism, advance glycation end products (AGE), and receptor AGE (RAGE) metabolic pathway. Information on these age-relevant proteins, likely expanded and validated in longitudinal studies and examined in mechanistic studies, will be essential for patient stratification and the development of new treatments aimed at improving health expectancy.

Wu X, You W, Wu Z, Ye F, Chen S. Serum biomarker analysis at the protein level on pulmonary hypertension secondary to old anterior myocardial infarction. Pulm Circ 2020; 10:2045894020969079. [PMID: 33282196 PMCID: PMC7691928 DOI: 10.1177/2045894020969079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2020] [Accepted: 10/06/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) related to old anterior myocardial infarction (OAMI)
always accompanies a bad prognosis, and thus, we aimed to screen serum
biomarkers related to PH in OAMI patients. According to right ventricular
systolic pressure, we divided mice into sham, OAMI, and PH-OAMI groups and
evaluated body, heart and lung weight, heart function, pulmonary blood flow
velocity, cardiac fibrotic area, and pulmonary arteriole condition. Lung and
serum were under the proteomic analysis. Levels of three identified proteins
were measured. Compared with sham and OAMI mice, PH-OAMI mice showed heart
dysfunction, low pulmonary blood flow, high right ventricular systolic pressure,
heavy heart and lung weight, large cardiac fibrotic area, and pathological
pulmonary arteriole remodeling (P<0.05 or
P<0.01). Haptoglobin, annexin A5, and Ig mu chain C region
of lung and serum were changed significantly in PH-OAMI mice
(P<0.01). Then, we collected serum and clinical data,
measured three serum protein levels, and performed multivariate regression and
receiver operating characteristic curve in patients (normal, OAMI, and PH-OAMI
groups). Compared with normal and OAMI patients, serum levels of three proteins
in PH-OAMI patients were also altered notably (P<0.01).
These three proteins can predict PH in OAMI patients
(P<0.01). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis
revealed haptoglobin (cut-off value: 78.295, sensitivity: 62.8%, specificity:
94.4%), annexin A5 (cut-off value: 151.925, sensitivity: 41.9%, specificity:
82.4%), and Ig mu chain C region (cut-off value: 168.885, sensitivity: 86.0%,
specificity: 79.6%) (P<0.01). Three circulating serum
proteins can be useful for the categorization of OAMI patients with and without
PH.
