Androgen receptor deficiency-induced TUG1 in suppressing ferroptosis to promote benign prostatic hyperplasia through the miR-188-3p/GPX4 signal pathway. Redox Biol 2024; 75:103298. [PMID: 39121689 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2024.103298] [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: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 07/14/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), characterized by the non-malignant enlargement of the prostate, exhibits a pronounced association with inflammation resulting from androgen receptor (AR) deficiency. Ferroptosis, a cell death mechanism triggered by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and closely linked to inflammation, has yet to be fully understood in the context of BPH. Using RNA sequencing, we observed a significant elevation of taurine-upregulated gene 1 (TUG1) long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in BPH tissues compared to normal prostate tissue. High levels of TUG1 exhibited a discernible correlation with both prostate volume and the extent of inflammatory infiltration in BPH patients. The suppression of TUG1 not only led to a reduction in prostate size but also ameliorated AR-deficiency-induced prostatic hyperplasia. Mechanistically, a decrease in AR in prostate luminal cells prompted macrophage aggregation and the release of IL-1β, subsequently fostering the transcription of TUG1 via MYC. Induced TUG1, through competitive binding with miR-188-3p, facilitated the expression of GPX4, thereby diminishing intracellular ROS levels and impeding ferroptosis in prostate luminal cells. Notably, the ferroptosis inducer JKE-1674 alleviated inflammation-induced prostatic hyperplasia in vivo. Together, these findings suggest that AR deficiency crucially inhibits ferroptosis, promoting BPH via the TUG1/miR-188-3p/GPX4 signaling axis, and making ferroptosis induction a promising therapeutic strategy for BPH patients with AR deficiency.

Zhang Y, Cao J, Yuan Z, Zuo H, Yao J, Tu X, Gu X. Construction and validation of prognostic signatures related to mitochondria and macrophage polarization in gastric cancer. Front Oncol 2024; 14:1433874. [PMID: 39132501 PMCID: PMC11310369 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1433874] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Increasing evidence reveals the involvement of mitochondria and macrophage polarisation in tumourigenesis and progression. This study aimed to establish mitochondria and macrophage polarisation-associated molecular signatures to predict prognosis in gastric cancer (GC) by single-cell and transcriptional data. Methods Initially, candidate genes associated with mitochondria and macrophage polarisation were identified by differential expression analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Subsequently, candidate genes were incorporated in univariateCox analysis and LASSO to acquire prognostic genes in GC, and risk model was created. Furthermore, independent prognostic indicators were screened by combining risk score with clinical characteristics, and a nomogram was created to forecast survival in GC patients. Further, in single-cell data analysis, cell clusters and cell subpopulations were yielded, followed by the completion of pseudo-time analysis. Furthermore, a more comprehensive immunological analysis was executed to uncover the relationship between GC and immunological characteristics. Ultimately, expression level of prognostic genes was validated through public datasets and qRT-PCR. Results A risk model including six prognostic genes (GPX3, GJA1, VCAN, RGS2, LOX, and CTHRC1) associated with mitochondria and macrophage polarisation was developed, which was efficient in forecasting the survival of GC patients. The GC patients were categorized into high-/low-risk subgroups in accordance with median risk score, with the high-risk subgroup having lower survival rates. Afterwards, a nomogram incorporating risk score and age was generated, and it had significant predictive value for predicting GC survival with higher predictive accuracy than risk model. Immunological analyses revealed showed higher levels of M2 macrophage infiltration in high-risk subgroup and the strongest positive correlation between risk score and M2 macrophages. Besides, further analyses demonstrated a better outcome for immunotherapy in low-risk patients. In single-cell and pseudo-time analyses, stromal cells were identified as key cells, and a relatively complete developmental trajectory existed for stromal C1 in three subclasses. Ultimately, expression analysis revealed that the expression trend of RGS2, GJA1, GPX3, and VCAN was consistent with the results of the TCGA-GC dataset. Conclusion Our findings demonstrated that a novel prognostic model constructed in accordance with six prognostic genes might facilitate the improvement of personalised prognosis and treatment of GC patients.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, a new type of programmed cell death proposed in recent years, is characterized mainly by reactive oxygen species and iron-mediated lipid peroxidation and differs from programmed cell death, such as apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy. Ferroptosis is associated with a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis can aggravate or reduce the occurrence and development of diseases by targeting metabolic pathways and signaling pathways in tumors, ischemic organ damage, and other degenerative diseases related to lipid peroxidation. Increasing evidence suggests that ferroptosis is closely linked to the onset and progression of various ophthalmic conditions, including corneal injury, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, and retinoblastoma. Our review of the current research on ferroptosis in ophthalmic diseases reveals significant advancements in our understanding of the pathogenesis, aetiology, and treatment of these conditions.

Abstract
Microplastics biological toxicity, environmental persistence and biological chemicals have been paid widespread attention. Microplastics exposed to chicken spleen injury of the specific mechanism is unclear. Thus, we randomly assigned chickens to 4 groups: C (normal diet), L-MPs (1 mg/L), M-MPs (10 mg/L), and H-MPs (100 mg/L), and assessed spleen damage after 42 d of exposure. Morphologically, the boundary between the red and white pulp of the spleen was blurred, along with the expansion of the white pulp. It was further speculated that microplastics induced mitochondrial dynamic homeostasis (Drp1 upgraded, Mfn1, Mfn2, and OPA1 reduced), and provoked the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway (Bcl-2/Bax decreased, cytc, caspase3, and caspase9 raised), resulting in redox imbalance and lipid peroxide accumulation (MDA increased, CAT, GSH, and T-AOC plummeted), and further stimulated ferroptosis (FTH1, GPX4, and SLC7A11 decreased). Here we explored the impact of polystyrene microplastics on the spleen, as well as the programmed death (apoptosis and ferroptosis) involved, and the regulative role of mitochondria in this process. This could be of significant importance in bridging the gap in laboratory research on microplastics-induced spleen injury in chicken.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury is the leading cause of acute kidney injury in both autologous and transplanted kidneys. Low-level glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3) is associated with renal IR injury. The exact mechanism of targeted GPX3 restoration in renal IR injury has yet to be determined. METHODS The distribution of GPX3 in different tissues and organs of the body was investigated. The level of GPX3 in renal IR injury was assessed. To confirm the action of GPX3 and its mechanisms, IR models were used to introduce adeno-associated virus 9 containing GPX3, as well as hypoxia/reoxygenation-exposed normal rat kidney cells that consistently overexpressed GPX3. Reverse molecular docking was used to confirm whether GPX3 was a target of ebselen. RESULTS GPX3 is abundant in the kidneys and decreases in expression during renal IR injury. GPX3 overexpression reduced renal IR injury and protected tubular epithelial cells from apoptosis. Proteomics analysis revealed a strong link between GPX3 and mitochondrial signaling, cellular redox state, and different expression patterns of selenoproteins. GPX3 inhibited reactive oxygen species-induced mitochondrial apoptosis and balanced the disordered expression of selenoproteins. GPX3 was identified as a stable selenoprotein that interacts with ebselen. Ebselen enhanced the level of GPX3 and reduced IR-induced mitochondrial damage and renal dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS Targeted restoration of GPX3 attenuates renal IR injury by balancing selenoprotein expression and inhibiting reactive oxygen species-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis, indicating that GPX3 could be a potential therapeutic target for renal IR injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is common in elder men. The current study aims to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in hyperplastic prostate and to explore the role of Nik related kinase (NRK) in BPH. METHODS Four datasets including three bulk and one single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) were obtained to perform integrated bioinformatics. Cell clusters and specific metabolism pathways were analyzed. The localization, expression and functional activity of NRK was investigated via RT-PCR, western-blot, immunohistochemical staining, flow cytometry, wound healing assay, transwell assay and CCK-8 assay. RESULTS A total of 17 DEGs were identified by merging three bulk RNA-seq datasets. The findings of integrated single-cell analysis showed that NRK remarkably upregulated in fibroblasts and SM cells of hyperplasia prostate. Meanwhile, NRK was upregulated in BPH samples and localized almost in stroma. The expression level of NRK was significantly correlated with IPSS and Qmax of BPH patients. Silencing of NRK inhibited stromal cell proliferation, migration, fibrosis and EMT process, promoted apoptosis and induced cell cycle arrest, while overexpression of NRK in prostate epithelial cells showed opposite results. Meanwhile, induced fibrosis and EMT process were rescued by knockdown of NRK. Furthermore, expression level of NRK was positively correlated with that of α-SMA, collagen-I and N-cadherin, negatively correlated with that of E-cadherin. CONCLUSION Our novel data identified NRK was upregulated in hyperplastic prostate and associated with prostatic stromal cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, migration, fibrosis and EMT process. NRK may play important roles in the development of BPH and may be a promising therapeutic target for BPH/LUTS.

Abstract
Background PANoptosis is a newly discovered cell death type, and tightly associated with immune system activities. To date, the mechanism, regulation and application of PANoptosis in tumor is largely unknown. Our aim is to explore the prognostic value of PANoptosis-related genes in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). Methods Analyzing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas-COAD (TCGA-COAD) involving 458 COAD cases, we concentrated on five PANoptosis pathways from the Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) and a comprehensive set of immune-related genes. Our approach involved identifying distinct genetic COAD subtype clusters and developing a prognostic model based on these parameters. Results The research successfully identified two genetic subtype clusters in COAD, marked by distinct profiles in PANoptosis pathways and immune-related gene expression. A prognostic model, incorporating these findings, demonstrated significant predictive power for survival outcomes, underscoring the interplay between PANoptosis and immune responses in COAD. Conclusion This study enhances our understanding of COAD's genetic framework, emphasizing the synergy between cell death pathways and the immune system. The development of a prognostic model based on these insights offers a promising tool for personalized treatment strategies. Future research should focus on validating and refining this model in clinical settings to optimize therapeutic interventions in COAD.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) is the 5th most common malignancy in women, and the leading cause of death from gynecologic malignancies. Owing to tumor heterogeneity, lack of reliable early diagnostic methods and high incidence of chemotherapy resistance, the 5‑year survival rate of patients with advanced OC remains low despite considerable advances in detection and therapeutic approaches. Therefore, identifying novel therapeutic targets to improve the prognosis of patients with OC is crucial. The expression of glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3) plays a crucial role in the growth, proliferation and differentiation of various malignant tumors. In OC, GPX3 is the only antioxidant enzyme the high expression of which is negatively correlated with the overall survival of patients. GPX3 may affect lipid metabolism in tumor stem cells by influencing redox homeostasis in the tumor microenvironment. The maintenance of stemness in OC stem cells (OCSCs) is strongly associated with poor prognosis and recurrence in patients. The aim of the present study was to review the role of GPX3 in OC and investigate the potential factors and effects of GPX3 on OCSCs. The findings of the current study offer novel potential targets for drug therapy in OC, enhance the theoretical foundation of OC drug therapy and provide valuable references for clinical treatment.

Abstract
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a highly contagious coronavirus that induces diarrhea and death in neonatal piglets, resulting in substantial economic losses to the global swine industry. The mechanisms of PEDV infection and the roles of host factors are still under exploration. In this study, we used the ferroptosis pathway downstream target activator (1S,3R)-RSL3 compound as a starting point, combined with the interactions of N-acetylcysteine and deferoxamine, to elucidate the effects of a series of compounds on PEDV proliferation. We also established glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) gene overexpression to further elucidate the relationship between the ferroptosis pathway and PEDV. (1S,3R)-RSL3 inhibited PEDV replication in Vero cells, while N-acetylcysteine and deferoxamine promoted its proliferation. In addition, (1S,3R)-RSL3 mainly affected the replication stage of PEDV. Overexpression of GPX4 promoted PEDV proliferation, indicating that the ferroptosis pathway could influence PEDV replication in Vero cells. This study focused on the mechanism of (1S,3R)-RSL3 inhibition on PEDV, laying the foundation for exploring the pathogenic mechanisms of PEDV and drug development.
