Iron chelation mitigates mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress by enhancing nrf2-mediated antioxidant responses in the renal cortex of a murine model of type 2 diabetes. Mitochondrion 2024; 78:101937. [PMID: 39004262 DOI: 10.1016/j.mito.2024.101937] [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: 04/02/2024] [Revised: 06/20/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Renal iron overload is a common complication of diabetes that leads to oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in the kidneys. This study investigated the effects of iron chelation using deferiprone on mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in the renal cortex of a murine model of type 2 diabetes. Diabetic rats were treated with deferiprone (50 mg/kg BW) for 16 weeks. Our results show that iron chelation with deferiprone significantly increased the nuclear accumulation of Nrf2, a transcription factor that regulates the expression of antioxidant enzymes. This led to enhanced antioxidant capacity, reduced production of reactive oxygen species, and improved mitochondrial bioenergetic function in diabetic rats. However, chronic iron chelation led to altered mitochondrial respiration and increased oxidative stress in non-diabetic rats. In conclusion, our findings suggest that iron chelation with deferiprone protects mitochondrial bioenergetics and mitigates oxidative stress in the renal cortex, involving the NRF2 pathway in type 2 diabetes.

[PMID: 38303704 PMCID: PMC10830877 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2023.108721] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are closely related to the progression of numerous chronic inflammatory diseases, but the role of n-3 PUFAs in the intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) remains unclear. In this study, male C57BL/6 wildtype mice (WT group, n = 30) and fat-1 transgenic mice (TG group, n = 30) were randomly selected to construct the IVDD model. The results demonstrated that the optimized composition of PUFAs in the TG mice had a significant impact on delaying IVDD and cellular senescence of intervertebral disc (IVD). Mechanismly, n-3 PUFAs inhibited IVD senescence by alleviating NCOA4-mediated iron overload. NCOA4 overexpression promoted iron overload and weakened the pro-proliferation and anti-senescence effect of DHA on the IVD cells. Furthermore, this study futher revealed n-3 PUFAs downregulated NCOA4 expression by inactiviting the LGR5/β-catenin signaling pathway. This study provides an important theoretical basis for preventing and treating IVDD and low back pain.

Abstract
Iron metabolism plays a crucial role in various physiological functions of the human body, as it is essential for the growth and development of almost all organisms. Dysregulated iron metabolism-manifested either as iron deficiency or overload-is a significant risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Moreover, emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis, a form of iron-dependent programed cell death, may also contribute to CVD development. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms of iron metabolism and ferroptosis in CVD is important for improving disease management. By integrating different perspectives and expertise in the field of CVD-related iron metabolism, this overview provides insights into iron metabolism and CVD, along with approaches for diagnosing, treating, and preventing CVD associated with iron dysregulation.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, a regulated form of cellular death characterized by the iron-mediated accumulation of lipid peroxides, provides a novel avenue for delving into the intersection of cellular metabolism, oxidative stress, and disease pathology. We have witnessed a mounting fascination with ferroptosis, attributed to its pivotal roles across diverse physiological and pathological conditions including developmental processes, metabolic dynamics, oncogenic pathways, neurodegenerative cascades, and traumatic tissue injuries. By unraveling the intricate underpinnings of the molecular machinery, pivotal contributors, intricate signaling conduits, and regulatory networks governing ferroptosis, researchers aim to bridge the gap between the intricacies of this unique mode of cellular death and its multifaceted implications for health and disease. In light of the rapidly advancing landscape of ferroptosis research, we present a comprehensive review aiming at the extensive implications of ferroptosis in the origins and progress of human diseases. This review concludes with a careful analysis of potential treatment approaches carefully designed to either inhibit or promote ferroptosis. Additionally, we have succinctly summarized the potential therapeutic targets and compounds that hold promise in targeting ferroptosis within various diseases. This pivotal facet underscores the burgeoning possibilities for manipulating ferroptosis as a therapeutic strategy. In summary, this review enriched the insights of both investigators and practitioners, while fostering an elevated comprehension of ferroptosis and its latent translational utilities. By revealing the basic processes and investigating treatment possibilities, this review provides a crucial resource for scientists and medical practitioners, aiding in a deep understanding of ferroptosis and its effects in various disease situations.
