Luo L, Li T, Zeng Z, Li H, He X, Chen Y. CSE reduces OTUD4 triggering lung epithelial cell apoptosis via PAI-1 degradation. Cell Death Dis 2023; 14:614. [PMID: 37726265 PMCID: PMC10509146 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-023-06131-1] [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: 03/05/2023] [Revised: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023]
Abstract
Ovarian tumor family deubiquitinase 4 (OTUD4), a member of the OTU deubiquitinating enzyme, is implicated to decrease in cancer to regulate cell apoptosis. However, the role of OTUD4 in cigarette smoke induced epithelial cell apoptosis and its mechanism have not been elucidated. In this study, we showed that OTUD4 protein reduced in CSE treated mice and airway epithelial cells. OTUD4 silence aggravated cell apoptosis and emphysematous change in the lung tissue of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) treated mice. Additionally, restoration of OTUD4 in the lung of mice alleviated CSE induced apoptosis and emphysematous morphology change. The effect of OTUD4 on cell apoptosis was also confirmed in vitro. Through protein profile screening, we identified that OTUD4 may interact with plasminogen activator inhibitor 1(PAI-1). We further confirmed that OTUD4 interacted with PAI-1 for de-ubiquitination and inhibiting CSE induced PAI-1 degradation. Furthermore, the protective role of OTUD4 in airway epithelial cells apoptosis was blocked by PAI-1 deactivation. Taken together, our data suggest that OTUD4 regulates cigarette smoke (CS)-triggered airway epithelial cell apoptosis via modulating PAI-1 degradation. Targeting OUTD4/PAI-1 signaling might potentially provide a therapeutic target against the lung cell apoptosis in cigarette smoke (CS)-induced emphysema.

Inducible miR-1224 silences cerebrovascular Serpine1 and restores blood flow to the stroke-affected site of the brain. MOLECULAR THERAPY. NUCLEIC ACIDS 2023; 31:276-292. [PMID: 36726407 PMCID: PMC9868883 DOI: 10.1016/j.omtn.2022.12.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/31/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
The α-tocotrienol (TCT) form of natural vitamin E is more potent than the better known α-tocopherol against stroke. Angiographic studies of canine stroke have revealed beneficial cerebrovascular effects of TCT. This work seeks to understand the molecular basis of such effect. In mice, TCT supplementation improved perfusion at the stroke-affected site by inducing miR-1224. miRNA profiling of a laser-capture-microdissected stroke-affected brain site identified miR-1224 as the only vascular miR induced. Lentiviral knockdown of miR-1224 significantly blunted the otherwise beneficial effects of TCT on stroke outcomes. Studies on primary brain microvascular endothelial cells revealed direct angiogenic properties of miR-1224. In mice not treated with TCT, advance stereotaxic delivery of an miR-1224 mimic to the stroke site markedly improved stroke outcomes. Mechanistic studies identified Serpine1 as a target of miR-1224. Downregulation of Serpine1 augmented the angiogenic response of the miR-1224 mimic in the brain endothelial cells. The inhibition of Serpine1, by dietary TCT and pharmacologically, increased cerebrovascular blood flow at the stroke-affected site and protected against stroke. This work assigns Serpine1, otherwise known to be of critical significance in stroke, a cerebrovascular function that worsens stroke outcomes. miR-1224-dependent inhibition of Serpine1 can be achieved by dietary TCT as well as by the small-molecule inhibitor TM5441.

Mandarin Fish (Siniperca chuatsi) p53 Regulates Glutaminolysis Induced by Virus via the p53/miR145-5p/c-Myc Pathway in Chinese Perch Brain Cells. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0272721. [PMID: 35286150 PMCID: PMC9045281 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02727-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
p53, as an important tumor suppressor protein, has recently been implicated in host antiviral defense. The present study found that the expression of mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) p53 (Sc-p53) was negatively associated with infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) and Siniperca chuatsi rhabdovirus (SCRV) proliferation as well as the expression of glutaminase 1 (GLS1) and glutaminolysis pathway-related enzymes glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2). This indicated that Sc-p53 inhibited the replication and proliferation of ISKNV and SCRV by negatively regulating the glutaminolysis pathway. Moreover, it was confirmed that miR145-5p could inhibit c-Myc expression by targeting the 3′ untranslated region (UTR). Sc-p53 could bind to the miR145-5p promoter region to promote its expression and to further inhibit the expression of c-Myc. The expression of c-Myc was proved to be positively correlated with the expression of GLS1 as well. All these suggested a negative relationship between the Sc-p53/miR145-5p/c-Myc pathway and GLS1 expression and glutaminolysis. However, it was found that after ISKNV and SCRV infection, the expressions of Sc-p53, miR145-5p, c-Myc, and GLS1 were all significantly upregulated, which did not match the pattern in normal cells. Based on the results, it was suggested that ISKNV and SCRV infection altered the Sc-p53/miR145-5p/c-Myc pathway. All of above results will provide potential targets for the development of new therapeutic strategies against ISKNV and SCRV. IMPORTANCE Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) and Siniperca chuatsi rhabdovirus (SCRV) as major causative agents have caused a serious threat to the mandarin fish farming industry (J.-J. Tao, J.-F. Gui, and Q.-Y. Zhang, Aquaculture 262:1–9, 2007, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aquaculture.2006.09.030). Viruses have evolved the strategy to shape host-cell metabolism for their replication (S. K. Thaker, J. Ch’ng, and H. R. Christofk, BMC Biol 17:59, 2019, https://doi.org/10.1186/s12915-019-0678-9). Our previous studies showed that ISKNV replication induced glutamine metabolism reprogramming and that glutaminolysis was required for efficient replication of ISKNV and SCRV. In the present study, the mechanistic link between the p53/miR145-5p/c-Myc pathway and glutaminolysis in the Chinese perch brain (CPB) cells was provided, which will provide novel insights into ISKNV and SCRV pathogenesis and antiviral treatment strategies.
