Abstract
Mitophagy maintains tissue homeostasis by self-eliminating defective mitochondria through autophagy. How mitophagy regulates stem cell activity during hair regeneration remains unclear. Here, we found that mitophagy promotes the proliferation of hair germ (HG) cells by regulating glutathione (GSH) metabolism. First, single-cell RNA sequencing, mitochondrial probe, transmission electron microscopy, and immunofluorescence staining showed stronger mitochondrial activity and increased mitophagy-related gene especially Prohibitin 2 (Phb2) expression at early-anagen HG compared to the telogen HG. Mitochondrial inner membrane receptor protein PHB2 binds to LC3 to initiate mitophagy. Second, molecular docking and functional studies revealed that PHB2-LC3 activates mitophagy to eliminate the damaged mitochondria in HG. RNA-seq, single-cell metabolism, immunofluorescence staining, and functional validation discovered that LC3 promotes GSH metabolism to supply energy for promoting HG proliferation. Third, transcriptomics analysis and immunofluorescence staining indicated that mitophagy was down-regulated in the aged compared to young-mouse HG. Activating mitophagy and GSH pathways through small-molecule administration can reactivate HG cell proliferation followed by hair regeneration in aged hair follicles. Our findings open up a new avenue for exploring autophagy that promotes hair regeneration and emphasizes the role of the self-elimination effect of mitophagy in controlling the proliferation of HG cells by regulating GSH metabolism.

Abstract
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are characterized by the failure of neural tube closure during embryogenesis and are considered the most common and severe central nervous system anomalies during early development. Recent microRNA (miRNA) expression profiling studies have revealed that the dysregulation of several miRNAs plays an important role in retinoic acid (RA)-induced NTDs. However, the molecular functions of these miRNAs in NTDs remain largely unidentified. Here, we show that miR-10a-5p is significantly upregulated in RA-induced NTDs and results in reduced cell growth due to cell cycle arrest and dysregulation of cell differentiation. Moreover, the cell adhesion molecule L1-like ( Chl1) is identified as a direct target of miR-10a-5p in neural stem cells (NSCs) in vitro, and its expression is reduced in RA-induced NTDs. siRNA-mediated knockdown of intracellular Chl1 affects cell proliferation and differentiation similar to those of miR-10a-5p overexpression, which further leads to the inhibition of the expressions of downstream ERK1/2 MAPK signaling pathway proteins. These cellular responses are abrogated by either increased expression of the direct target of miR-10a-5p ( Chl1) or an ERK agonist such as honokiol. Overall, our study demonstrates that miR-10a-5p plays a major role in the process of NSC growth and differentiation by directly targeting Chl1, which in turn induces the downregulation of the ERK1/2 cascade, suggesting that miR-10a-5p and Chl1 are critical for NTD formation in the development of embryos.

Melatonin Attenuates Oxidative Stress-Induced Apoptosis of Bovine Ovarian Granulosa Cells by Promoting Mitophagy via SIRT1/FoxO1 Signaling Pathway. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:12854.

Abstract
Oxidative-stress-induced apoptosis of granulosa cells is considered to be a main driver of follicular atresia. Increasing evidence suggests a protective effect of melatonin against oxidative damage but the mechanism remains unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of melatonin on mitophagy and apoptosis of bovine ovarian granulosa cells under oxidative stress, and to clarify the mechanism. Our results indicate that melatonin inhibited H2O2-induced apoptosis and mitochondrial injury of bovine ovarian granulosa cells, as revealed by decreased apoptosis rate, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, Ca2+ concentration, and cytochrome C release and increased mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm). Simultaneously, melatonin promoted mitophagy of bovine ovarian granulosa cells through increasing the expression of PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1), PARKIN, BECLIN1, and LC3II/LC3I; decreasing the expression of sequestosome 1 (SQSMT1); and promoting mitophagosome and lysosome fusion. After treatment with a mitophagy inhibitor CsA, we found that melatonin alleviated apoptosis and mitochondrial injury through promoting mitophagy in bovine ovarian granulosa cells. Furthermore, melatonin promoted the expression of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) and decreased the expression level of forkhead transcription factors class O (type1) (FoxO1). By treatment with an SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 or FoxO1 overexpression, the promotion of melatonin on mitophagy as well as the inhibition on mitochondrial injury and apoptosis were reversed in bovine ovarian granulosa cells. In conclusion, our results suggest that melatonin could promote mitophagy to attenuate oxidative-stress-induced apoptosis and mitochondrial injury of bovine ovarian granulosa cells via the SIRT1/FoxO1 signaling pathway.

Molecular cloning and characterization of Sirt1 and its role in the follicle of juvenile Chinese soft-shelled turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis). Gene 2023; 860:147211. [PMID: 36708847 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147211] [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: 09/29/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
Sirt1 is a member of the Sirtuins family that regulates ovarian senescence, follicular development, and oocyte maturation in vertebrates. To understand its role in the ovary of Pelodiscus sinensis, we cloned the full-length cDNA of Ps-Sirt1 and characterized its potential function by intraperitoneally injecting agonist (resveratrol) and antagonist (EX527) in the female juvenile turtle. The full-length cDNA of Ps-Sirt1 was 2106 bp, comprising 203 bp 5'UTR, a 226 bp 3'UTR, and a 1677 bp ORF encoding 558 amino acids. The calculated molecular weight of predicted protein was 63 kDa, and the isoelectric point was 4.65. The predicted protein comprised a conserved Sir2 domain. Amino acid sequence alignment and phylogenetic analyses showed that Ps-Sirt1 was most closely related to turtles, and distantly related to fish. Expression pattern analysis showed Ps-Sirt1 was highest expressed in ovary, followed by testis, liver, heart, and brain. In the ovarian differentiation processes, Sirt1 showed significantly higher expression at embryonic stage 15 and 21. In the testis differentiation process, Sirt1 expression was downregulated at embryonic stages 15-19. Activated and inactivated Sirt1 decreased the number of primordial follicles in juvenile turtles. Bcl2, Bax, mTOR, and rpS6 expressions were up-regulated, whereas GnRH, Fshb, p50, and p65 were down-regulated after agonist treatment. The inaction of Sirt1 with antagonist up-regulated GnRH, Fshb, p65, p53, Foxo3a, Bcl2, Bax, mTOR, and rpS6, but down-regulated p50. In summary, Sirt1 might be involved in the ovarian follicle development of P. sinensis.

Abstract
Sirtuins are protein factors that can delay aging and alleviate age-related diseases through multiple molecular pathways, mainly by promoting DNA damage repair, delaying telomere shortening, and mediating the longevity effect of caloric restriction. In the last decade, sirtuins have also been suggested to exert mitochondrial quality control by mediating mitophagy, which targets damaged mitochondria and delivers them to lysosomes for degradation. This is especially significant for age-related diseases because dysfunctional mitochondria accumulate in aging organisms. Accordingly, it has been suggested that sirtuins and mitophagy have many common and interactive aspects in the aging process. This article reviews the mechanisms and pathways of sirtuin family-mediated mitophagy and further discusses its role in aging and age-related diseases.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevailing neurodegenerative disorder. Baicalein has neuroprotective effects on PD animals, but its mechanism is not clarified. We explored baicalein effects on PD rats. PD rat models were established by injecting 6-hydroxydopamine into the striatum of substantia nigra on the left side of the rat brain and treated with baicalein. Dopamine (DA) content, neuronal apoptosis, neuronal injury, neuronal mitochondria, and autophagy were assessed. Baicalein-treated PD rats were treated with autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine to identify the role of autophagy in PD. PD rats were injected with AgomiR-30b-5p or sh-SIRT1 plasmids and treated with baicalein. PD rats elicited decreased neurological score and DA secretion of the striatum, increased neuronal apoptosis, and injury, and reduced number of mitochondria and autophagy, whereas baicalein alleviated neuronal injury and partly recovered mitochondrial dysfunction, 3-methyladenine inhibited the protection of baicalein. miR-30b-5p was elevated and SIRT1 was diminished in PD rats and inhibited by baicalein. miR-30b-5p targeted SIRT1. miR-30b-5p overexpression or SIRT1 silencing annulled the protection of baicalein. The phosphorylation level of AMPK in the substantia nigra of PD rats was decreased and mTOR was increased, whereas baicalein annulled these trends. Briefly, baicalein activated mitochondrial autophagy via miR-30b-5p and the SIRT1/AMPK/mTOR pathway, thus protecting PD rats.

[PMID: 35146845 DOI: 10.1111/odi.14148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2021] [Revised: 01/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Periodontitis is closely associated with kidney disease and reactive oxygen species (ROS) involvement. Mitochondria are the primary source of both endogenous ROS and renal energy. We investigated whether resveratrol (RSV) prevents renal injury and mitochondrial dysfunction in periodontitis rats. METHODS Thirty male Wistar rats were divided into control, experimental periodontitis (Ep), and Ep-RSV groups. To induce periodontitis, a steel ligature was placed on the cervix of the bilateral first maxillary molars. RSV (50 mg/kg/d) to the Ep-RSV group and vehicle to the Ep and control groups were gavaged. After 8 weeks, alveolar bone loss, pocket depth, gingival blood index, and tooth mobility were assessed. Oxidative stress parameters, mitochondrial structure, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), mitochondrial ROS, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) were analysed in renal. Renal function and histology were also evaluated. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the Ep group showed renal structural destruction, elevated oxidative stress levels, mitochondrial structure destruction, MMP loss, mitochondrial ROS accumulation, ATP reduction, and decreased SIRT1 and PGC-1α levels. RSV prevented these destruction (p < .05). However, there was no significant impairment in renal function (p > .05). CONCLUSIONS Periodontitis induced mitochondrial dysfunction in renal tissues. Resveratrol exerts a preventive effect on periodontitis-induced kidney injury by preventing mitochondrial dysfunction.

Nuclear factor I-C disrupts cellular homeostasis between autophagy and apoptosis via miR-200b-Ambra1 in neural tube defects. Cell Death Dis 2021; 13:17. [PMID: 34930914 PMCID: PMC8688449 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-021-04473-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2021] [Revised: 11/25/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Impaired autophagy and excessive apoptosis disrupt cellular homeostasis and contribute to neural tube defects (NTDs), which are a group of fatal and disabling birth defects caused by the failure of neural tube closure during early embryonic development. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying NTDs and outcomes remain elusive. Here, we report the role of the transcription factor nuclear factor I-C (NFIC) in maintaining cellular homeostasis in NTDs. We demonstrated that abnormally elevated levels of NFIC in a mouse model of NTDs can interact with the miR-200b promoter, leading to the activation of the transcription of miR-200b, which plays a critical role in NTD formation, as reported in our previous study. Furthermore, miR-200b represses autophagy and triggers apoptosis by directly targeting the autophagy-related gene Ambra1 (Autophagy/Beclin1 regulator 1). Notably, miR-200b inhibitors mitigate the unexpected effects of NFIC on autophagy and apoptosis. Collectively, these results indicate that the NFIC-miR-200b-Ambra1 axis, which integrates transcription- and epigenome-regulated miRNAs and an autophagy regulator, disrupts cellular homeostasis during the closure of the neural tube, and may provide new insight into NTD pathogenesis.
