Abstract
Atrial cardiomyopathy (ACM) forms the substrate for atrial fibrillation (AF) and underlies the potential for atrial thrombus formation and subsequent stroke. However, generating stable animal models that accurately replicate the entire progression of atrial lesions, particularly the onset of AF, presents significant challenges. In the present study, we found that the isoform of CRE-binding protein modulator (CREM-IbΔC-X), which is involved in the regulation of cardiac development and atrial rhythm, was highly expressed in atrial biopsies from patients with AF. Building upon this finding, we employed CRISPR/Cas9 technology to create a mouse model with cardiac-specific overexpression of CREM-IbΔC-X (referred to as CS-CREM mice). This animal model effectively illustrated the development of ACM through electrophysiological and structural remodelings over time. Proteomics and Chip-qPCR analysis of atrial samples revealed significant upregulation of cell-matrix adhesion and extracellular matrix structural components, alongside significant downregulation of genes related to atrial functions in the CS-CREM mice. Furthermore, the corresponding responses to anti-arrhythmia drugs, i.e., amiodarone and propafenone, suggested that CS-CREM mice could serve as an ideal in vivo model for drug testing. Our study introduced a novel ACM model with spontaneous AF by cardiac-specifically overexpressing CREM-IbΔC-X in mice, providing valuable insights into the mechanisms and therapeutic targets of ACM.

Silica nanoparticles induce male reproductive toxicity via Crem hypermethylation mediated spermatocyte apoptosis and sperm flagella damage. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:13856-13866. [PMID: 38265582 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-024-32046-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/14/2024] [Indexed: 01/25/2024]
Abstract
Exposure to silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) could causally contribute to malfunctioning of the spermatogenesis, but the underlying mechanism is rarely known. This study was designed to explore the mechanism of Crem hypermethylation in SiNP-induced reproductive toxicity. The male mice were exposure to SiNPs (0 and 20 mg/kg·bw) once every 5 days via intratracheal instillation for 35 days. After exposure stopped, half of each group was killed, and the rest were sacrificed after another 15-day feeding. GC-2 cells were treated with 0 and 20 μg/mL SiNPs. The results showed that SiNPs led to structure damage of spermatocyte and sperm, caused spermatocyte apoptosis, and decreased sperm quantity and quality. After 15 days of the withdrawal, the testicular tissue damage gradually recovered. Mechanistic study showed that SiNPs induced hypermethylation of the gene of cAMP responsive element modulator (Crem) in the promoter region. Downregulation of Crem inhibited the expression of outer dense fiber 1 (Odf1), resulting in abnormal sperm flagella structure; at the same time, Crem inhibited the expression of Bcl-xl, causing upregulation of cytochrome-C, cleaved-caspase-9/caspase-9, cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3, resulting in mitochondrial dependent apoptotic pathway. However, 5-aza, DNA methylation inhibitor, could reverse the SiNP-induced downregulation of Crem and reverse the Crem/Bcl-xl-mediated mitochondrial dependent apoptotic pathway. These results suggested SiNPs could disrupt spermatogenesis by causing Crem hypermethylation to regulate the Odf1 and Bcl-xl in spermatocytes resulting in the sperm flagella structure and spermatocyte apoptosis. Our study provided new insights into the male reproductive toxicity mechanism of SiNPs; Crem demethylation may be a potential way to prevent reproductive dysfunction from SiNP exposure.

Abstract
Spermatogenesis is a very complex process with an intricate transcriptional regulation. The transition from the diploid to the haploid state requires the involvement of specialized genes in meiosis, among other specific functions for the formation of the spermatozoon. The transcription factor cAMP-response element modulator (CREM) is a key modulator that triggers the differentiation of the germ cell into the spermatozoon through the modification of gene expression. CREM has multiple repressor and activator isoforms whose expression is tissue-cell-type specific and tightly regulated by various factors at the transcriptional, post-transcriptional and post-translational level. The activator isoform CREMτ controls the expression of several relevant genes in post-meiotic stages of spermatogenesis. In addition, exposure to xenobiotics negatively affects CREMτ expression, which is linked to male infertility. On the other hand, antioxidants could have a positive effect on CREMτ expression and improve sperm parameters in idiopathically infertile men. Therefore, CREM expression could be used as a biomarker to detect and even counteract male infertility. This review examines the importance of CREM as a transcription factor for sperm production and its relevance in male fertility, infertility and the response to environmental xenobiotics that may affect CREMτ expression and the downstream regulation that alters male fertility. Also, some health disorders in which CREM expression is altered are discussed.

Abstract
Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma (HCCC) is a rare salivary gland carcinoma with a generally indolent behavior, characterized by recurrent chromosomal translocation involving EWSR1 (22q12.2) leading to two fusion genes EWSR1::ATF1 or EWSR1::CREM. We report one case of HCCC with a novel SMARCA2::CREM fusion, identified by targeted RNA next generation sequencing by LD-RT-PCR, which has until now never been described in salivary glands. The exon 4 of SMARCA2 is fused to exon 5 of CREM. This fusion has been described previously in only one tumor, a central nervous system tumor (intracranial mesenchymal tumor) but not in other FET::CREB fused tumors. This fusion was confirmed by CREM break-apart FISH and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The tumor cells showed retained expression of INI1, SMARCA2, and SMARCA4 by immunohistochemistry. We compare its clinical, histopathological, immunophenotypic, genetic features with those previously described in HCCC, FET::CREB fusion-positive. Our results added data suggesting that different histomolecular tumor subtypes seem to be included within the terminology "HCCC, FET::CREB fusion-positive," and that further series of cases are needed to better characterize them.

Abstract
The EWSR1::CREM fusion gene, caused by a chromosomal translocation t(10;22)(p11;q12), has been discovered in divergent malignancies, ranging from low-grade to highly malignant cancers. The translocation gives rise to a chimeric protein, EWSR1::CREM. The molecular mechanisms behind the oncogenic properties of the EWSR1::CREM protein have not previously been systematically characterized. In this study, we performed transcriptional profiling of the melanoma cell line CHL-1, with depletion of endogenous EWSR1::CREM protein using siRNA mediated knockdown. We found that the expression of 712 genes was altered (Log2 fold-change ≥ 2). We performed pathway analysis to identify EWSR1::CREM mediated pathways and cell studies to examine functional differences brought upon by the knockdown. Altered pathways involved cell cycle and proliferation, this was further validated by the cell studies where cell migration was affected as well. Among the target genes with the greatest downregulation, we discovered ODC1-a well-established oncogenic enzyme that can be pharmacologically inhibited and is essential for polyamine synthesis. We found that the main effects seen upon EWSR1::CREM knockdown can be reproduced by directly silencing ODC1 expression. These findings provide novel insights into pathogenesis of tumors harboring a EWSR1::CREM fusion gene, hopefully facilitating the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Chromosomal translocations with gene fusions are uniquely rare events in paraganglioma, mostly involving UBTF::MAML3 gene fusion. Precedent literature suggests that tumors involving MAML3 gene fusion correlate with poor clinical outcomes. Herein, we report a case of metastatic sporadic paraganglioma harboring EWSR1::CREM gene fusion in a 36-year-old male, that has not been previously described. The patient presented with large paraspinal mass that was resected the same year. Tumor recurred 3-years later and on further work-up, patient was found to have metastases involving both lungs. Histopathologic evaluation of the original primary tumor showed tightly packed irregular nests and cords of cells containing palely eosinophilic cytoplasm. Features considered atypical included: areas of solid growth pattern, coagulative tumor necrosis, focal cellular atypia and angiolymphatic invasion were also identified. By immunohistochemistry, the tumor cells were positive for synaptophysin and chromogranin and negative for keratin. The S100 stain highlights the sustentacular cells and the Ki-67 proliferation index of 15%. The recurrence specimen was similar but showed increased cellularity, atypia, necrosis, and proliferative activity (Ki-67 proliferation index of 35%). CT guided biopsy of the right lung lesion was consistent with metastasis. Next generation sequencing identified EWSR1::CREM fusion. The breakpoints were found in chromosome 22: 29683123 for EWSR1 exon 7 (NM_005243.3) and at chromosome 10:35495823 for CREM exon 6 (NM_001267562.1). Fluorescence in situ hybridization for EWSR1 gene rearrangement was positive. In summary, we report a case of metastatic paraganglioma with EWSR1::CREM gene fusion, not previously described in this entity, and expands on the phenotypic diversity within the genetic landscape of EWSR1::CREM gene fusion positive tumors.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Reprograms Circulating Extracellular Vesicles from ACS Patients Impairing Their Cardio-Protective Properties. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms221910270. [PMID: 34638611 PMCID: PMC8508604 DOI: 10.3390/ijms221910270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 09/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are promising therapeutic tools in the treatment of cardiovascular disorders. We have recently shown that EVs from patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) undergoing sham pre-conditioning, before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were cardio-protective, while EVs from patients experiencing remote ischemic pre-conditioning (RIPC) failed to induce protection against ischemia/reperfusion Injury (IRI). No data on EVs from ACS patients recovered after PCI are currently available. Therefore, we herein investigated the cardio-protective properties of EVs, collected after PCI from the same patients. EVs recovered from 30 patients randomly assigned (1:1) to RIPC (EV-RIPC) or sham procedures (EV-naive) (NCT02195726) were characterized by TEM, FACS and Western blot analysis and evaluated for their mRNA content. The impact of EVs on hypoxia/reoxygenation damage and IRI, as well as the cardio-protective signaling pathways, were investigated in vitro (HMEC-1 + H9c2 co-culture) and ex vivo (isolated rat heart). Both EV-naive and EV-RIPC failed to drive cardio-protection both in vitro and ex vivo. Consistently, EV treatment failed to activate the canonical cardio-protective pathways. Specifically, PCI reduced the EV-naive Dusp6 mRNA content, found to be crucial for their cardio-protective action, and upregulated some stress- and cell-cycle-related genes in EV-RIPC. We provide the first evidence that in ACS patients, PCI reprograms the EV cargo, impairing EV-naive cardio-protective properties without improving EV-RIPC functional capability.
