Abstract
As a regulatory protein that upregulates transcription in response to various stresses, cold-induced RNA-binding protein (CIRBP) is involved in a variety of physiological pathological processes in cells. However, little is known about the role of CIRBP in regulating autophagy and the synthesis and secretion of ovarian steroid hormones (estradiol E2 and progesterone P4). This study aimed to explore whether the synthetic secretion of ovarian steroid hormones is related to CIRBP-regulated autophagy. We detected the differential expression of CIRBP, LC3, E2 and P4 in YGCs cultured at mild low temperature (32 °C) for 6 and 12 h. CIRBP, LC3, E2 and P4 expression was increased in response to low temperature in YGCs. In order to illustrate that the changes in secretion of E2/P4 and autophagy might be caused by CIRBP induced by low temperature, we overexpressed CIRBP in YGCs cultured in vitro to detect its effects on autophagy and steroid hormone synthesis and secretion. We found that overexpression of CIRBP can induce autophagy of YGCs and enhance the synthesis and secretion of E2 and P4, suggesting that mild hypothermia may activate autophagy by inducing the expression of CIRBP and enhance the synthesis and secretion of E2 and P4. To further explore the relationship between CIRBP regulated autophagy and steroid hormone synthesis and secretion, we verified it by regulating autophagy. The results showed that Inhibition of autophagy significantly reversed CIRBP overexpression-enhanced autophagy and synthetic secretion of E2, P4 in YGCs, while activated autophagy showed similar results to overexpression of CIRBP. In conclusion, our data suggest that autophagy is involved in the synthesis and secretion of YGCs E2 and P4 and is associated with overexpression of CIRBP.

Neurochem Res 2022; 47:3777-3791. [PMID: 36243819 DOI: 10.1007/s11064-022-03778-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2022] [Revised: 09/24/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
3-benzyl-5-((2-nitrophenoxy) methyl)-dihydrofuran-2(3 H)-one (3BDO) is a mTOR agonist that inhibits autophagy. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of 3BDO on seizure and cognitive function by autophagy regulation in pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-kindled epileptic mice model. The PTZ-kindled epileptic mice model was used in study. The behavioral changes and electroencephalogram (EEG) of the mice in each group were observed. The cognitive functions were tested by Morris water maze test. The loss of hippocampal neurons was detected by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunofluorescence analysis. Immunohistochemistry, western blot and q-PCR were employed to detect the expression of autophagy-related proteins and mTOR in the hippocampus and cortex. Less seizures, increased hippocampal neurons and reduced astrocytes of hippocampus were observed in the 3BDO-treated epileptic mice than in the PTZ-kindled epileptic mice. Morris water maze test results showed that 3BDO significantly improved the cognitive function of the PTZ-kindled epileptic mice. Western blot analyses and q-PCR revealed that 3BDO inhibited the expression of LC3, Beclin-1, Atg5, Atg7 and p-ULK1/ULK1, but increased that of p-mTOR/mTOR, p-P70S6K/P70S6K in the hippocampus and temporal lobe cortex of epileptic mice. Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence also showed 3BDO inhibited the LC3 expression and increased the mTOR expression in the hippocampus of epileptic mice. In addition, the autophagy activator EN6 reversed the decrease in the 3BDO-induced autophagy and aggravated the seizures and cognitive dysfunction in the epileptic mice. 3BDO regulates autophagy by activating the mTOR signaling pathway in PTZ-kindled epileptic mice model, thereby alleviating hippocampus neuronal loss and astrocytes proliferation, reducing seizures and effectively improving cognitive function. Therefore, 3BDO may have potential value in the treatment of epilepsy.

[PMID: 35885057 PMCID: PMC9312889 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10071752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are a type of mesenchymal stem cell that is investigated in bone tissue engineering (BTE). Osteoblasts are the main cells responsible for bone formation in vivo and directing ADSCs to form osteoblasts through osteogenesis is a research topic in BTE. In addition to the osteogenesis of ADSCs into osteoblasts, the crosstalk of ADSCs with osteoblasts through the secretion of extracellular vesicles (EVs) may also contribute to bone formation in ADSC-based BTE. We investigated the effect of ADSC-secreted EVs (ADSC-EVs) on osteoblast function. ADSC-EVs (size ≤ 1000 nm) were isolated from the culture supernatant of ADSCs through ultracentrifugation. The ADSC-EVs were observed to be spherical under a transmission electron microscope. The ADSC-EVs were positive for CD9, CD81, and Alix, but β-actin was not detected. ADSC-EV treatment did not change survival but did increase osteoblast proliferation and activity. The 48 most abundant known microRNAs (miRNAs) identified within the ADSC-EVs were selected and then subjected to gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses. The GO analysis revealed that these miRNAs are highly relevant to skeletal system morphogenesis and bone development. The KEGG analysis indicated that these miRNAs may regulate osteoblast function through autophagy or the mitogen-activated protein kinase or Ras-related protein 1 signaling pathway. These results suggest that ADSC-EVs enhance osteoblast function and can contribute to bone regeneration in ADSC-based BTE.

Abstract
Penaeus vannamei is an important cultured shrimp that has high commercial value in the worldwide. However, the industry suffers heavy economic losses each year due to disease outbreaks caused by pathogenic bacteria. In the present study, after Vibrio alginolyticus infection, DNA damage in the hemocytes of the shrimp markedly increased, and autophagy and apoptosis increased significantly. Subsequently, hemocytes were sampled from the control and infected shrimp and sequenced for mRNA and microRNA (miRNA) 24 h after V. alginolyticus infection to better understand the response mechanism to bacterial infection in P. vannamei. We identified 1,874 and 263 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEGs) and miRNAs (DEMs) respectively, and predicted that 997 DEGs were targeted by DEMs. These DEGs were involved in the regulation of multiple signalling pathways, such as Toll and IMD signalling, TGF-beta signalling, MAPK signalling, and cell apoptosis, during Vibrio alginolyticus infection of the shrimp. We identified numerous mRNA-miRNA interactions, which provide insight into the defense mechanism that occur during the antimicrobial process of P. vannamei.

TBC domain family 7-like enhances the tolerance of Penaeus vannamei to ammonia nitrogen by the up-regulation of autophagy. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 122:48-56.

Abstract
TBC domain family 7 (TBC1D7) is one of the subunits of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and an important regulator of autophagosome biogenesis. However, the function of TBC1D7 is not fully understood in crustaceans. In the present study, TBC1D7 was identified from Penaeus vannamei. The complete coding sequence of PvTBC1D7 was of 960 bp encoding a predicted polypeptide of 319 amino acids with one conserved TBC domain, which shared high similarity with TBC1D7 of that other species. The mRNA of PvTBC1D7 was highly expressed in hemocyte and hepatopancreas, and the PvTBC1D7 protein was localized specifically in the cytoplasm of hemocyte of shrimp. Besides, PvTBC1D7 was co-localized with PvTSC1 in the cytoplasm of shrimp, indicating that there might existed a binding relationship between PvTBC1D7 and PvTSC1. During the ammonia nitrogen stress, the mRNA transcripts of PvTBC1D7 were significantly upregulated in hemocyte, hepatopancreas, and gill. Functionally, overexpression of PvTBC1D7 in vitro restored the inhibition to autophagy caused by chloroquine (CLQ) and increased the autophagy level, while the silencing of PvTBC1D7 could inhibit the autophagy. More importantly, after interfering with PvTBC1D7, the autophagy level decreased significantly both in hepatopancreas and hemocyte of P. vannamei, the mRNA expression of PvmTOR was increased remarkably with the significantly decrease of autophagy-related genes (PvATG12 and PvATG14). And the reduction of PvTBC1D7 remarkably exacerbated the damage of hepatopancreas, increased the accumulation of ROS, and reduced the survival proportion of shrimp under ammonia nitrogen stress. Altogether, these results indicated that PvTBC1D7 might positively regulate the autophagy by stabilizing the negative regulation of mTOR by TSC complex, reduce the oxidative stress damage and improve shrimp ammonia nitrogen tolerance.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical post-transcriptional regulators, which play a crucial role in resistance to adverse environmental stress by regulating autophagy. However, the mechanism of miRNA involved in the autophagy regulation of shrimp under ammonia nitrogen stress is still limited. In the present study, ammonia nitrogen could induce hepatopancreas injury and oxidative stress of P. vannamei, and significantly increase the content of ROS in hemocytes by flow cytometry. Simultaneously, it is accompanied by autophagy occurred in the hemocytes and hepatopancreas. Furthermore, the qRT-PCR analysis revealed that the expression of pva-miR-252 in P. vannamei decreased significantly after ammonia nitrogen stress, and pva-miR-252 negatively regulated PvPI3K by binding to 3'UTR of PvPI3K by double-luciferase assay. Pva-miR-252 overexpression could significantly increase the level of autophagy, and restore the autophagy inhibition caused by Chloroquine in vitro , whereas silencing of pva-miR-252 resulted in the opposite effect. More importantly, overexpression of pva-miR-252 could enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes and reduced the production of ROS of shrimp under ammonia nitrogen stress. In conclusion, pva-miR-252 could positively regulate autophagy through PvPI3K and improve the antioxidant enzyme activity of P. vannamei under ammonia nitrogen stress, and our study provides a novel theoretical molecular mechanism for further understanding the shrimp cope with a high ammonia nitrogen environment.
