Gęgotek A, Skrzydlewska E. Lipid peroxidation products' role in autophagy regulation. Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 212:375-383. [PMID: 38182071 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2024.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
Autophagy, which is responsible for removing damaged molecules, prevents their accumulation in cells, thus maintaining intracellular homeostasis. It is also responsible for removing the effects of oxidative stress, so its activation takes place during increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and lipid peroxidation. Therefore, the aim of this review was to summarize all the available knowledge about the effect of protein modifications by lipid peroxidation products on autophagy activation and the impact of this interaction on the functioning of cells. This review shows that reactive aldehydes (including 4-hydroxynonenal and malondialdehyde), either directly or by the formation of adducts with autophagic proteins, can activate or prevent autophagy, depending on their concentration. This effect relates not only to the initial stages of autophagy, when 4-hydroxynonenal and malondialdehyde affect the levels of proteins involved in autophagy initiation and phagophore formation, but also to the final stage, degradation, when reactive aldehydes, by binding to the active center of cathepsins, inactivate their proteolytic functions. Moreover, this review also shows how little research exists on analyzing the impact of lipid peroxidation products and their protein adducts on autophagy. Such knowledge could be used in the therapy of diseases related to autophagy disorders.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major global health concern, representing one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths. Despite various treatment options, the prognosis for HCC patients remains poor, emphasizing the need for a deeper understanding of the factors contributing to HCC development. This study investigates the role of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation in hepatocyte maturation and its impact on hepatobiliary carcinogenesis. A conditional Parg knockout mouse model was employed, utilizing Cre recombinase under the albumin promoter to target Parg depletion specifically in hepatocytes. The disruption of the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ating pathway in hepatocytes affects the early postnatal liver development. The inability of hepatocytes to finish the late maturation step that occurs early after birth causes intensive apoptosis and acute inflammation, resulting in hypertrophic liver tissue with enlarged hepatocytes. Regeneration nodes with proliferative hepatocytes eventually replace the liver tissue and successfully fulfill the liver function. However, early developmental changes predispose these types of liver to develop pathologies, including with a malignant nature, later in life. In a chemically induced liver cancer model, Parg-depleted livers displayed a higher tendency for hepatocellular carcinoma development. This study underscores the critical role of the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ating pathway in hepatocyte maturation and highlights its involvement in liver pathologies and hepatobiliary carcinogenesis. Understanding these processes may provide valuable insights into liver biology and liver-related diseases, including cancer.

Abstract
Inflammation represents a fundamental immune response triggered by various detrimental stimuli, such as infections, tissue damage, toxins, and foreign substances. Protein degradation plays a crucial role in regulating the inflammatory process at multiple levels. The identification of sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1, also known as p62) protein as a binding partner of lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase in 1995 marked a significant milestone. Subsequent investigations unveiled the activity of SQSTM1 to interact with diverse unstructured substrates, including proteins, organelles, and pathogens, facilitating their delivery to the lysosome for autophagic degradation. In addition to its well-established intracellular functions, emerging studies have reported the active secretion or passive release of SQSTM1 by immune or non-immune cells, orchestrating the inflammatory responses. These distinct characteristics render SQSTM1 a critical therapeutic target in numerous human diseases, including infectious diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cardiovascular diseases. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the structure and modulation of SQSTM1, discusses its intracellular and extracellular roles in inflammation, and highlights its significance in inflammation-related diseases. Future investigations focusing on elucidating the precise localization, structure, post-translational modifications of SQSTM1, as well as the identification of additional interacting partners, hold promise for unravelling further insights into the multifaceted functions of SQSTM1.

Expression of circadian regulatory genes is dysregulated by increased cytokine production in mice subjected to concomitant intestinal injury and parenteral nutrition. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0290385. [PMID: 37647292 PMCID: PMC10468060 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0290385] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We have developed a mouse model of Parenteral Nutrition Associated Cholestasis (PNAC) in which combining intestinal inflammation and PN infusion results in cholestasis, hepatic macrophage activation, and transcriptional suppression of bile acid and sterol signaling and transport. In the liver, the master circadian gene regulators Bmal/Arntl and Clock drive circadian modulation of hepatic functions, including bile acid synthesis. Once activated, Bmal and Clock are downregulated by several transcription factors including Reverbα (Nr1d1), Dbp (Dbp), Dec1/2 (Bhlhe40/41), Cry1/2 (Cry1/2) and Per1/2 (Per1/2). The aim of this study was to examine the effects of PN on expression of hepatic circadian rhythm (CR) regulatory genes in mice. METHODS WT, IL1KO or TNFRKO mice were exposed to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 4 days followed by soy-oil lipid emulsion-based PN infusion through a central venous catheter for 14 days (DSS-PN) and the expression of key CR regulatory transcription factors evaluated. Animals were NPO on a 14 hr light-dark cycle and were administered PN continuously over 24 hrs. Mice were sacrificed, and hepatic tissue obtained at 9-10AM (Zeitgeber Z+3/Z+4 hrs). PNAC was defined by increased serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total bile acids, and total bilirubin and the effect of i.p. injection of recombinant IL-1β (200ng/mouse) or TNFα (200ng/mouse) on CR expression was examined after 4 hrs. RESULTS In the PNAC model, DSS-PN increased serum biomarkers of hepatic injury (ALT, AST, serum bile acids) which was suppressed in both DSS-PN IL1KO and DSS-PN TNFRKO mice. In WT DSS-PN, mRNA expression of Arntl and Dec1 was suppressed corresponding to increased Nr1d1, Per2, Dbp and Dec2. These effects were ameliorated in both DSS-PN IL1KO and DSS-PN TNFRKO groups. Western analysis of the circadian transcription factor network revealed in WT mice DSS-PN significantly suppressed Reverbα, Bmal, Dbp, Per2 and Mtnr1b. With the exception of Dbp, DSS-PN mediated suppression was ameliorated by both IL1KO and TNFRKO. Intraperitoneal injection of IL-1β or TNFα into WT mice increased serum AST and ALT and suppressed mRNA expression of Nr1d1, Arntl and Clock and increased Dbp and Per2. CONCLUSIONS Altered expression of CR-dependent regulatory genes during PNAC accompanies cholestasis and is, in part, due to increased cytokine (IL-1β and TNFα) production. Evaluation of the effects of modulating CR in PNAC thus deserves further investigation.
