Feng M, Zhang L, Yin A, Zhang H, Wu X, Qian L. Peptide PDRPS6 attenuates myocardial ischemia injury by improving mitochondrial function. Eur J Pharmacol 2024; 974:176570. [PMID: 38688398 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176570] [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: 12/09/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Mitochondrial dynamics play a crucial role in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, where an imbalance between fusion and fission processes occurs. However, effective measures to regulate mitochondrial dynamics in this context are currently lacking. Peptide derived from the 40 S ribosomal protein S6 (PDRPS6), a peptide identified via peptidomics, is associated with hypoxic stress. This study aimed to investigate the function and mechanism of action of PDRPS6 in I/R injury. In vivo, PDRPS6 ameliorated myocardial tissue injury and cardiomyocyte apoptosis and decreased cardiac function induced by I/R injury in rats. PDRPS6 supplementation significantly reduced apoptosis in vitro. Mechanistically, PDRPS6 improved mitochondrial function by decreasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, maintaining mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and inhibiting mitochondrial fission. Pull-down assay analyses revealed that phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5) may be the target of PDRPS6, which can lead to the dephosphorylation of dynamin-related protein1 (Drp1) at ser616 site. Overexpression of PGAM5 partially eliminated the effect of PDRPS6 on improving mitochondrial function. These findings suggest that PDRPS6 supplementation is a novel method for treating myocardial injuries caused by I/R.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte lipotoxicity and ferroptosis are the key to the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Perilipin 5 (PLIN5) is perceived as a significant target of DCM. This study aimed to focus on the role and mechanism of PLIN5 on lipotoxicity and ferroptosis in DCM.Following transfection, mouse cardiomyocytes HL-1 were induced by 0.1 mM palmitic acid (PA) to set up lipotoxic cardiomyocyte models. The cell viability and lipid accumulation were evaluated by cell counting kit-8 assay and Oil red O staining, respectively. Ferrous ion (Fe2+), glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were determined to verify the effects of PLIN5 or Pirin (PIR) on ferroptosis. Quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction or Western blot was performed for quantitative analysis.PLIN5 overexpression promoted the viability, GSH level, and expression of GPX4/PIR/intracellular P65, yet suppressed lipid accumulation, level of Fe2+/MDA/ROS, and expression of interleukin (IL)-1β/IL-18/intranuclear P65 in PA-stimulated HL-1 cells. PIR silencing counteracted the roles of PLIN5 overexpression in PA-stimulated HL-1 cells.PLIN5 suppresses lipotoxicity and ferroptosis in cardiomyocyte via modulating PIR/NF-κB axis, hinting its potential as a therapeutic target in DCM.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, distinct from apoptosis, necrosis, autophagy, and other types of cell death, is a novel iron-dependent regulated cell death characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides and redox imbalance with distinct morphological, biochemical, and genetic features. Dysregulation of iron homeostasis, the disruption of antioxidative stress pathways and lipid peroxidation are crucial in ferroptosis. Ferroptosis is involved in the pathogenesis of several cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, cardiomyopathy, myocardial infarction, ischemia-reperfusion injury, abdominal aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection, and heart failure. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms that regulate ferroptosis in cardiovascular diseases will enhance the prevention and treatment of these diseases. This review discusses the latest findings on the molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis and its regulation in cardiovascular diseases, the application of ferroptosis modulators in cardiovascular diseases, and the role of traditional Chinese medicines in ferroptosis regulation to provide a comprehensive understanding of the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases and identify new prevention and treatment options.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are caused by pathological cardiac remodeling, which involves fibrosis, inflammation and cell dysfunction. This includes autophagy, apoptosis, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, changes in energy metabolism, angiogenesis and dysregulation of signaling pathways. These changes in heart structure and/or function ultimately result in heart failure. In an effort to prevent this, multiple cardiovascular outcome trials have demonstrated the cardiac benefits of sodium‑glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), hypoglycemic drugs initially designed to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. SGLT2is include empagliflozin and dapagliflozin, which are listed as guideline drugs in the 2021 European Guidelines for Heart Failure and the 2022 American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology/Heart Failure Society of America Guidelines for Heart Failure Management. In recent years, multiple studies using animal models have explored the mechanisms by which SGLT2is prevent cardiac remodeling. This article reviews the role of SGLT2is in cardiac remodeling induced by different etiologies to provide a guideline for further evaluation of the mechanisms underlying the inhibition of pathological cardiac remodeling by SGLT2is, as well as the development of novel drug targets.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, originally approved for type 2 diabetes mellitus, have demonstrated efficacy in reducing cardiovascular events, particularly heart failure, in patients with and without diabetes. An intriguing research area involves exploring the potential application of SGLT2 inhibitors in cardio-oncology, aiming to mitigate the cardiovascular adverse events associated with anticancer treatments. These inhibitors present a unique dual nature, offering both cardioprotective effects and anticancer properties, conferring a double benefit for cardio-oncology patients. In this review, the authors first examine the established cardioprotective effects of SGLT2 inhibitors in heart failure and subsequently explore the existing body of evidence, including both preclinical and clinical studies, that supports the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in the context of cardio-oncology. The authors further discuss the mechanisms through which SGLT2 inhibitors protect against cardiovascular toxicity secondary to cancer treatment. Finally, they explore the potential anticancer effects of SGLT2 inhibitors along with their proposed mechanisms.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the main diseases that endanger human health, and their risk factors contribute to high morbidity and a high rate of hospitalization. Cell death is the most important pathophysiology in CVDs. As one of the cell death mechanisms, ferroptosis is a new form of regulated cell death (RCD) that broadly participates in CVDs (such as myocardial infarction, heart transplantation, atherosclerosis, heart failure, ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy (radiation-induced cardiomyopathy, diabetes cardiomyopathy, sepsis-induced cardiac injury, doxorubicin-induced cardiac injury, iron overload cardiomyopathy, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy), and pulmonary arterial hypertension), involving in iron regulation, metabolic mechanism and lipid peroxidation. This article reviews recent research on the mechanism and regulation of ferroptosis and its relationship with the occurrence and treatment of CVDs, aiming to provide new ideas and treatment targets for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of CVDs by clarifying the latest progress in CVDs research.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to investigate the association between lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and the risk of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods The study enrolled patients with diagnosis of T2D between 2009 and 2018 from the National Nutrition and Health Examination Survey (NHANES) database. Demographic information, laboratory test, and diagnostic data were collected. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) plots were used to assess the dose-effect relationship between LDH levels and the risk of DKD in patients with T2D. Based on LDH levels, individuals were divided into higher and lower groups using dichotomy, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between different LDH levels and the risk of DKD in T2D patients. Stratified analysis was performed to assess the consistency of the result. Results A total of 4888 patients were included in the study, with 2976 (60.9%) patients without DKD and 1912 (39.1%) patients with DKD. RCS plots showed that the risk of DKD increased with increasing LDH levels. Multifactorial logistic regression analysis revealed that T2D patients with higher LDH levels had a 45% increased risk of DKD compared to those with lower LDH levels (OR=1.45; 95% CI: 1.11-1.89). Furthermore, each standard deviation increase in LDH level was associated with a 24% increase in DKD incidence among T2D patients (OR=1.24; 95% CI: 1.07-1.44). Stratified analysis consistently supported these findings. Conclusions LDH can serve as a valuable biomarker for screening DKD in patients with T2D.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI), caused by the initial interruption and subsequent restoration of coronary artery blood, results in further damage to cardiac function, affecting the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent, superoxide-driven, non-apoptotic form of regulated cell death that is involved in the pathogenesis of MIRI. Ferroptosis is characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides (LOOH) and redox disequilibrium. Free iron ions can induce lipid oxidative stress as a substrate of the Fenton reaction and lipoxygenase (LOX) and participate in the inactivation of a variety of lipid antioxidants including CoQ10 and GPX4, destroying the redox balance and causing cell death. The metabolism of amino acid, iron, and lipids, including associated pathways, is considered as a specific hallmark of ferroptosis. This review systematically summarizes the latest research progress on the mechanisms of ferroptosis and discusses and analyzes the therapeutic approaches targeting ferroptosis to alleviate MIRI.

Abstract
Overloaded glucose levels in several metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes (T2D) can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction and enhanced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Oxidative stress and altered mitochondrial homeostasis, particularly in the cardiovascular system, contribute to the development of chronic comorbidities of diabetes. Diabetes-associated hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia can directly damage vascular vessels and lead to coronary artery disease or stroke, and indirectly damage other organs and lead to kidney dysfunction, known as diabetic nephropathy. The new diabetes treatments include Na+-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (iSGLT2) and glucagon-like 1 peptide receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), among others. The iSGLT2 are oral anti-diabetic drugs, whereas GLP-1RA are preferably administered through subcutaneous injection, even though GLP-1RA oral formulations have recently become available. Both therapies are known to improve both carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, as well as to improve cardiovascular and cardiorenal outcomes in diabetic patients. In this review, we present an overview of current knowledge on the relationship between oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cardiovascular therapeutic benefits of iSGLT2 and GLP-1RA. We explore the benefits, limits and common features of the treatments and remark how both are an interesting target in the prevention of obesity, T2D and cardiovascular diseases, and emphasize the lack of a complete understanding of the underlying mechanism of action.

Canagliflozin improves fatty acid oxidation and ferroptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells via FOXA1-CPT1A axis in diabetic kidney disease. Mol Cell Endocrinol 2024; 582:112139. [PMID: 38128823 DOI: 10.1016/j.mce.2023.112139] [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: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Impaired fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is a metabolic hallmark of renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) under diabetic conditions. Disturbed FAO may promote cellular oxidative stress and insufficient energy production, leading to ferroptosis subsequently. Canagliflozin, an effective anti-hyperglycemic drug, may exert potential reno-protective effects by upregulating FAO and inhibiting ferroptosis in RTECs. However, the mechanisms involved remain unclear. The present study is aimed to characterize the detailed mechanisms underlying the impact of canagliflozin on FAO and ferroptosis. Type 2 diabetic db/db mice were administrated daily by gavage with canagliflozin (20 mg/kg/day, 40 mg/kg/day) or positive control drug pioglitazone (10 mg/kg/day) for 12 weeks. The results showed canagliflozin effectively improved renal function and structure, reduced lipid droplet accumulation, enhanced FAO with increased ATP contents and CPT1A expression, a rate-limiting enzyme of FAO, and relieved ferroptosis in diabetic mice. Moreover, overexpression of FOXA1, a transcription factor related with lipid metabolism, was observed to upregulate the level of CPT1A, and further alleviated ferroptosis in high glucose cultured HK-2 cells. Whereas FOXA1 knockdown had the opposite effect. Mechanistically, chromatin immunoprecipitation assay and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay results demonstrated that FOXA1 transcriptionally promoted the expression of CPT1A through a sis-inducible element located in the promoter region of the protein. In conclusion, these data suggest that canagliflozin improves FAO and attenuates ferroptosis of RTECs via FOXA1-CPT1A axis in diabetic kidney disease.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has historically been a significant global health concern, profoundly impacting both life and well-being. In the process of CKD, with the gradual loss of renal function, the incidence of various life-threatening complications, such as cardiovascular diseases, cerebrovascular accident, infection and stroke, is also increasing rapidly. Unfortunately, existing treatments exhibit limited ability to halt the progression of kidney injury in CKD, emphasizing the urgent need to delve into the precise molecular mechanisms governing the occurrence and development of CKD while identifying novel therapeutic targets. Renal fibrosis, a typical pathological feature of CKD, plays a pivotal role in disrupting normal renal structures and the loss of renal function. Ferroptosis is a recently discovered iron-dependent form of cell death characterized by lipid peroxide accumulation. Ferroptosis has emerged as a potential key player in various diseases and the initiation of organ fibrosis. Substantial evidence suggests that ferroptosis may significantly contribute to the intricate interplay between CKD and its progression. This review comprehensively outlines the intricate relationship between CKD and ferroptosis in terms of iron metabolism and lipid peroxidation, and discusses the current landscape of pharmacological research on ferroptosis, shedding light on promising avenues for intervention. It further illustrates recent breakthroughs in ferroptosis-related regulatory mechanisms implicated in the progression of CKD, thereby providing new insights for CKD treatment. Video Abstract.

Abstract
Hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) poses a significant risk of neurological damage in newborns. This study investigates the impact of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) on neuronal damage in neonatal HIBD and its underlying mechanisms. HIBD neonatal rat model was constructed and pre-treated with 4-phenylbutiric acid (4-PBA). Nissl and TUNEL staining were utilised to assess neuronal damage and apoptosis in rat brains. HIBD cell model was established by inducing oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) in rat H19-7 neurons, which were then pre-treated with Thapsigargin (TG), Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), or both. Cell viability and apoptosis of H19-7 neurons were analysed using cell counting kit-8 assay and TUNEL staining. GRP78-PERK-CHOP pathway activity and glutathione peroxidase-4 (GPX4) expression in rat brains and H19-7 neurons were assessed using Western blot. Ferroptosis-related indicators, including glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and iron content, were measured using commercial kits in both rat brains and H19-7 neurons. GRP78-PERK-CHOP pathway was overactivated in HIBD neonatal rats' brains, which was mitigated by 4-PBA treatment. 4-PBA treatment demonstrated a reduction in neuronal damage and apoptosis in HIBD-affected neonatal rat brains. Furthermore, it attenuated ferroptosis in rats by increasing GPX4, GSH and SOD while decreasing MDA and iron content. In the OGD-induced H19-7 neurons, Fer-1 treatment counteracted the suppressive effects of TG on viability, the exacerbation of apoptosis, the promotion of ferroptosis and the activation of the GRP78-PERK-CHOP pathway. Overall, ERS facilitates neuronal damage in neonatal HIBD by inducing ferroptosis. Consequently, the suppression of ERS may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for treating neonatal HIBD.

Abstract
Cardiac myocyte death is an essential initiator of the pathogenesis and progression of various etiological cardiomyopathies, including diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), a disease that has been reported since 1972. Cardiac cell death has been detected in the hearts of patients with diabetes and in animal models, and the role of cell death in the pathogenesis of DCM has been extensively investigated. The first review by the authors, specifically focusing on "Cell death and diabetic cardiomyopathy," was published in the journal, Cardiovascular Toxicology in 2003. Over the past two decades, studies investigating the role of cardiac cell death in the pathogenesis of DCM have gained significant attention, resulting in the discovery of several new kinds of cell death involving different mechanisms, including apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and cuproptosis. After the 20th anniversary of the review published in 2003, we now provide an update with a focus on the potential role of metal-mediated cell death, ferroptosis, and cuproptosis in the development of DCM in compliance with this special issue. The intent of our review is to further stimulate work in the field to advance the body of knowledge and continue to drive efforts to develop more advanced therapeutic approaches to prevent cell death, particularly metal-dependent cell death, and, ultimately, to reduce or prevent the development of DCM.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents a distinct myocardial disorder elicited by diabetes mellitus, characterized by aberrations in myocardial function and structural integrity. This pathological condition predominantly manifests in individuals with diabetes who do not have concurrent coronary artery disease or hypertension. An escalating body of scientific evidence substantiates the pivotal role of programmed cell death (PCD)-encompassing apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and necroptosis-in the pathogenic progression of DCM, thereby emerging as a prospective therapeutic target. Additionally, numerous non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been empirically verified to modulate the biological processes underlying programmed cell death, consequently influencing the evolution of DCM. This review systematically encapsulates prevalent types of PCD manifest in DCM as well as nascent discoveries regarding the regulatory influence of ncRNAs on programmed cell death in the pathogenesis of DCM, with the aim of furnishing novel insights for the furtherance of research in PCD-associated disorders relevant to DCM.

Abstract
Iron overload increases the production of harmful reactive oxygen species in the Fenton reaction, which causes oxidative stress in the body and lipid peroxidation in the cell membrane, and eventually leads to ferroptosis. Diabetes is associated with increased intracellular oxidative stress, inflammation, autophagy, microRNA alterations, and advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which cause cardiac remodeling and cardiac diastolic contractile dysfunction, leading to the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). While these factors are also closely associated with ferroptosis, more and more studies have shown that iron-mediated ferroptosis is an important causative factor in DCM. In order to gain fresh insights into the functions of ferroptosis in DCM, this review methodically summarizes the traits and mechanisms connected with ferroptosis and DCM.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the severe complications of diabetes, characterized by structural and functional abnormalities in the hearts of diabetic patients without hypertension, coronary heart disease, or valvular heart disease. DCM can progress to heart failure, which is a significant cause of death in diabetic patients, but currently, there is no effective treatment available. Programmed cell death (PCD) is a genetically regulated form of cell death that includes apoptosis, autophagy, necroptosis, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis. PCD is essential for tissue homeostasis and normal development of the body. DCM is a complex condition, and abnormalities in the cascade of PCD signaling have been observed in its pathological process, suggesting that targeting PCD could be a potential therapeutic strategy. Studies have shown that natural substances can effectively modulate PCD to intervene in the treatment of DCM, and their use is safe. This review explores the role of different forms of PCD in the pathogenesis of DCM and summarizes the research progress in targeting PCD with natural substances to treat DCM. It can serve as a basis for further research and drug development to provide new treatment strategies for DCM patients.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a chronic cardiovascular complication caused by diabetes that is characterized by changes in myocardial structure and function, ultimately leading to heart failure and even death. Mitochondria serve as the provider of energy to cardiomyocytes, and mitochondrial dysfunction plays a central role in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. In response to a series of pathological changes caused by mitochondrial dysfunction, the mitochondrial quality control system is activated. The mitochondrial quality control system (including mitochondrial biogenesis, fusion and fission, and mitophagy) is core to maintaining the normal structure of mitochondria and performing their normal physiological functions. However, mitochondrial quality control is abnormal in diabetic cardiomyopathy, resulting in insufficient mitochondrial fusion and excessive fission within the cardiomyocyte, and fragmented mitochondria are not phagocytosed in a timely manner, accumulating within the cardiomyocyte resulting in cardiomyocyte injury. Currently, there is no specific therapy or prevention for diabetic cardiomyopathy, and glycemic control remains the mainstay. In this review, we first elucidate the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy and explore the link between pathological mitochondrial quality control and the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Then, we summarize how clinically used hypoglycemic agents (including sodium-glucose cotransport protein 2 inhibitions, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, thiazolidinediones, metformin, and α-glucosidase inhibitors) exert cardioprotective effects to treat and prevent diabetic cardiomyopathy by targeting the mitochondrial quality control system. In addition, the mechanisms of complementary alternative therapies, such as active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine, exercise, and lifestyle, targeting mitochondrial quality control for the treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy are also added, which lays the foundation for the excavation of new diabetic cardioprotective drugs.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a pathophysiological condition caused by diabetes mellitus and is the leading cause of diabetes mellitus-related mortality. The pathophysiology of DCM involves various processes, such as oxidative stress, inflammation, ferroptosis, and abnormal protein modification. New evidence indicates that dysfunction of glutamine (Gln) metabolism contributes to the pathogenesis of DCM by regulating these pathophysiological mechanisms. Gln is a conditionally essential amino acid in the human body, playing a vital role in maintaining cell function. Although the precise molecular mechanisms of Gln in DCM have yet to be fully elucidated, recent studies have shown that supplementing with Gln improves cardiac function in diabetic hearts. However, excessive Gln may worsen myocardial injury in DCM by generating a large amount of glutamates or increasing O-GlcNacylation. To highlight the potential therapeutic method targeting Gln metabolism and its downstream pathophysiological mechanisms, this article aims to review the regulatory function of Gln in the pathophysiological mechanisms of DCM.

The core symptoms of depression are anhedonia and persistent hopelessness. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and their related medications are commonly used for clinical treatment, despite their significant adverse effects. Traditional Chinese medicine with its multiple targets, channels, and compounds, exhibit immense potential in treating depression. Autophagy, a vital process in depression pathology, has emerged as a promising target for intervention. This review summarized the pharmacological mechanisms of antidepressants by regulating autophagy.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, a newly recognized form of nonapoptotic regulated cell death, is characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Biological processes, such as iron metabolism, lipid peroxidation, and amino acid metabolism, are involved in the process of ferroptosis. However, the related molecular mechanism of ferroptosis has not yet been completely clarified, and specific and sensitive biomarkers for ferroptosis need to be explored. Recently, studies have revealed that ferroptosis probably causes or exacerbates the progress of cardiovascular diseases, and could be the potential therapeutic target for cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we summarize the molecular mechanisms regulating ferroptosis, inducers or inhibitors of ferroptosis, and the current progresses of ferroptosis in cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, we discuss the emerging challenges and future perspectives, which may provide novel insights into the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a new form of programmed cell death, which is characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid peroxidation and increase of ROS, resulting in oxidative stress and cell death. Iron, lipid, and multiple signaling pathways precisely control the occurrence and implementation of ferroptosis. The pathways mainly include Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway, p62/Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway. Activating p62/Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway inhibits ferroptosis. Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway promotes ferroptosis. Furthermore, some factors also participate in the occurrence of ferroptosis under hypoxia, such as HIF-1, NCOA4, DMT1. Meanwhile, ferroptosis is related with hypoxia-related diseases, such as MIRI, cancers, and AKI. Accordingly, ferroptosis appears to be a therapeutic target for hypoxia-related diseases.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a multifactorial clinical syndrome involving many complex processes. The causes may be related to abnormal heart structure and/or function. Changes in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, the sympathetic nervous system, and the natriuretic peptide system are important in the pathophysiology of HF. Dysregulation or overexpression of these processes leads to changes in cardiac preload and afterload, changes in the vascular system, peripheral vascular dysfunction and remodeling, and endothelial dysfunction. One of the important factors responsible for the development of heart failure at the cellular level is oxidative stress. This condition leads to deleterious cellular effects as increased levels of free radicals gradually disrupt the state of equilibrium, and, as a consequence, the internal antioxidant defense system is damaged. This review focuses on pharmacotherapy for chronic heart failure with regard to oxidation-reduction metabolism, with special attention paid to the latest group of drugs, SGLT2 inhibitors-an integral part of HF treatment. These drugs have been shown to have beneficial effects by protecting the antioxidant system at the cellular level.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC) is a serious heart disease caused by diabetes. It is unrelated to hypertension and coronary artery disease and can lead to heart insufficiency, heart failure and even death. Currently, the pathogenesis of DC is unclear, and clinical intervention is mainly symptomatic therapy and lacks effective intervention objectives. Iron overdose mediated cell death, also known as ferroptosis, is widely present in the physiological and pathological processes of diabetes and DC. Iron is a key trace element in the human body, regulating the metabolism of glucose and lipids, oxidative stress and inflammation, and other biological processes. Excessive iron accumulation can lead to the imbalance of the antioxidant system in DC and activate and aggravate pathological processes such as excessive autophagy and mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in a chain reaction and accelerating myocardial and microvascular damage. In-depth understanding of the regulating mechanisms of iron metabolism and ferroptosis in cardiovascular vessels can help improve DC management. Therefore, in this review, we summarize the relationship between ferroptosis and the pathogenesis of DC, as well as potential intervention targets, and discuss and analyze the limitations and future development prospects of these targets.

Influence of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts on Blood Aminothiols in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease. Metabolites 2023; 13:743. [PMID: 37367901 PMCID: PMC10305081 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13060743] [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: 05/06/2023] [Revised: 06/03/2023] [Accepted: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) and the coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) are associated with a decreased blood glutathione (bGSH) level. Since GSH metabolism is closely related to other aminothiols (homocysteine and cysteine) and glucose, the aim of this study was to reveal the associations of bGSH with glucose and plasma aminothiols in CAD patients (N = 35) before CABG and in the early postoperative period. Forty-three volunteers with no history of cardiovascular disease formed the control group. bGSH and its redox status were significantly lower in CAD patients at admission. CABG had no significant effect on these parameters, with the exception of an increase in the bGSH/hemoglobin ratio. At admission, CAD patients were characterized by negative associations of homocysteine and cysteine with bGSH. All these associations disappeared after CABG. An association was found between an increase in oxidized GSH in the blood in the postoperative period and fasting glucose levels. Thus, CAD is associated with the depletion of the intracellular pool and the redox status of bGSH, in which hyperhomocysteinemia and a decrease in the bioavailability of the extracellular pool of cysteine play a role. The present study indicates that CABG causes disruptions in aminothiol metabolism and induces the synthesis of bGSH. Moreover, glucose becomes an important factor in the dysregulation of GSH metabolism in CABG.

Significance of Endothelial Dysfunction Amelioration for Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitor-Induced Improvements in Heart Failure and Chronic Kidney Disease in Diabetic Patients.

Abstract
Beyond lowering plasma glucose levels, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) significantly reduce hospitalization for heart failure (HF) and retard the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes. Endothelial dysfunction is not only involved in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but is also associated with the progression of CKD. In patients with type 2 diabetes, hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia and dyslipidemia induce the development of endothelial dysfunction. SGLT2is have been shown to improve endothelial dysfunction, as assessed by flow-mediated vasodilation, in individuals at high risk of CVD. Along with an improvement in endothelial dysfunction, SGLT2is have been shown to improve oxidative stress, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, glucotoxicity, such as the advanced signaling of glycation end products, and nitric oxide bioavailability. The improvements in endothelial dysfunction and such endothelium-derived factors may play an important role in preventing the development of coronary artery disease, coronary microvascular dysfunction and diabetic cardiomyopathy, which cause HF, and play a role in retarding CKD. The suppression of the development of HF and the progression of CKD achieved by SGLT2is might have been largely induced by their capacity to improve vascular endothelial function.

Abstract
The clinical therapeutics of cervical cancer is limited due to the drug resistance and metastasis of tumor. As a novel target for antitumor therapy, ferroptosis is deemed to be more susceptible for those cancer cells with resistance to apoptosis and chemotherapy. Dihydroartemisinin (DHA), the primary active metabolites of artemisinin and its derivatives, has exhibited a variety of anticancer properties with low toxicity. However, the role of DHA and ferroptosis in cervical cancer remained unclear. Here, we showed that DHA could time-dependently and dose-dependently inhibit the proliferation of cervical cancer cells, which could be alleviated by the inhibitors of ferroptosis rather than apoptosis. Further investigation confirmed that DHA treatment initiated ferroptosis, as evidenced by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and liquid peroxidation (LPO) levels and simultaneously depletion of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and glutathione (GSH). Moreover, nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4)-mediated ferritinophagy was also induced by DHA leading to subsequent increases of intracellular labile iron pool (LIP), exacerbated the Fenton reaction resulting in excessive ROS production, and enhanced cervical cancer ferroptosis. Among them, we unexpectedly found that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) played an antioxidant role in DHA-induced cell death. In addition, the results of synergy analysis showed that the combination of DHA and doxorubicin (DOX) emerged a highly synergistic lethal effect for cervical cancer cells, which was related also to ferroptosis. Overall, our data revealed the molecular mechanisms that DHA triggered ferritinophagy-dependent ferroptosis and sensitized to DOX in cervical cancer, which may provide novel avenues for future therapy development.

Abstract
Diabetes is a common chronic metabolic disease, and its incidence continues to increase year after year. Diabetic patients mainly die from various complications, with the most common being diabetic cardiomyopathy. However, the detection rate of diabetic cardiomyopathy is low in clinical practice, and targeted treatment is lacking. Recently, a large number of studies have confirmed that myocardial cell death in diabetic cardiomyopathy involves pyroptosis, apoptosis, necrosis, ferroptosis, necroptosis, cuproptosis, cellular burial, and other processes. Most importantly, numerous animal studies have shown that the onset and progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy can be mitigated by inhibiting these regulatory cell death processes, such as by utilizing inhibitors, chelators, or genetic manipulation. Therefore, we review the role of ferroptosis, necroptosis, and cuproptosis, three novel forms of cell death in diabetic cardiomyopathy, searching for possible targets, and analyzing the corresponding therapeutic approaches to these targets.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is characterized by progressive kidney cyst formation that leads to kidney failure. Tolvaptan, a vasopressin 2 receptor antagonist, is the only drug approved to treat patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease who have rapid disease progression. The use of tolvaptan is limited by reduced tolerability from aquaretic effects and potential hepatotoxicity. Thus, the search for more effective drugs to slow down the progression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is urgent and challenging. Drug repurposing is a strategy for identifying new clinical indications for approved or investigational medications. Drug repurposing is increasingly becoming an attractive proposition because of its cost-efficiency and time-efficiency and known pharmacokinetic and safety profiles. In this review, we focus on the repurposing approaches to identify suitable drug candidates to treat autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease and prioritization and implementation of candidates with high probability of success. Identification of drug candidates through understanding of disease pathogenesis and signaling pathways is highlighted.

Abstract
Diabetes is a complex metabolic disease. In recent years, diabetes and its chronic complications have become a health hotspot of global concern. It is very important to find promising therapeutic targets and directions. Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death that is different from cell necrosis, apoptosis, and autophagy. Ferroptosis is mainly characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. With the reduction of the anti-oxidative capacity of cells, the accumulated reactive lipid oxygen species will cause oxidative cell death and lead to ferroptosis at lethal levels. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis plays an important regulatory role in the initiation and development of diabetes, as well as various complications of diabetes. In this review, we will summarize new findings related to ferroptosis and diabetic complications and propose ferroptosis as a potential target for treating diabetic complications.

Abstract
Iron is an essential trace element associated with both pathologic deficiency and toxic overload. Thus, systemic and cell iron metabolism are highly controlled processes regulated by protein expression and localization, as well as turnover, through the action of cytokines and iron status. Iron metabolism in the heart is challenging because both iron overload and deficiency are associated with cardiac disease. Also associated with cardiovascular disease is inflammation, as many cardiac diseases are caused by or include an inflammatory component. In addition, iron metabolism and inflammation are closely linked. Hepcidin, the master regulator of systemic iron metabolism, is induced by the cytokine IL-6 and as such is among the acute phase proteins secreted by the liver as part of the inflammatory response. In an inflammatory state, systemic iron homeostasis is dysregulated, commonly resulting in hypoferremia, or low serum iron. Less well characterized is cardiac iron metabolism in general, and even less is known about how inflammation impacts heart iron handling. This review highlights what is known with respect to iron metabolism in the heart. Expression of iron metabolism-related proteins and processes of iron uptake and efflux in these cell types are outlined. Evidence for the strong co-morbid relationship between inflammation and cardiac disease is also reviewed. Known connections between inflammatory processes and iron metabolism in the heart are discussed with the goal of linking inflammation and iron metabolism in this tissue, a connection that has been relatively under-appreciated as a component of heart function in an inflammatory state. Therapeutic options connecting inflammation and iron balance are emphasized, with the main goal of this review being to bring attention to alterations in iron balance as a component of inflammatory diseases of the cardiovascular system.

COVID-19 Causes Ferroptosis and Oxidative Stress in Human Endothelial Cells. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:326.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction have been shown to play crucial roles in the pathophysiology of COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019). On these grounds, we sought to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis in human endothelial cells. We hypothesized that oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation induced by COVID-19 in endothelial cells could be linked to the disease outcome. Thus, we collected serum from COVID-19 patients on hospital admission, and we incubated these sera with human endothelial cells, comparing the effects on the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation between patients who survived and patients who did not survive. We found that the serum from non-survivors significantly increased lipid peroxidation. Moreover, serum from non-survivors markedly regulated the expression levels of the main markers of ferroptosis, including GPX4, SLC7A11, FTH1, and SAT1, a response that was rescued by silencing TNFR1 on endothelial cells. Taken together, our data indicate that serum from patients who did not survive COVID-19 triggers lipid peroxidation in human endothelial cells.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent novel type of cell death, has been characterized as an excessive accumulation of lipid peroxides and reactive oxygen species. A growing number of studies demonstrate that ferroptosis not only plays an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of chronic diseases, but also functions differently in different diseases. As a double-edged sword, activation of ferroptosis could potently inhibit tumor growth and increase sensitivity to chemotherapy and immunotherapy in various cancer settings. Therefore, the development of more efficacious ferroptosis agonists or inhibitors remains the mainstay of ferroptosis-targeting strategy for cancer therapeutics or cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and neurodegenerative diseases therapeutics.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathies are a clinically heterogeneous group of cardiac diseases characterized by heart muscle damage, resulting in myocardium disorders, diminished cardiac function, heart failure, and even sudden cardiac death. The molecular mechanisms underlying the damage to cardiomyocytes remain unclear. Emerging studies have demonstrated that ferroptosis, an iron-dependent non-apoptotic regulated form of cell death characterized by iron dyshomeostasis and lipid peroxidation, contributes to the development of ischemic cardiomyopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy, and septic cardiomyopathy. Numerous compounds have exerted potential therapeutic effects on cardiomyopathies by inhibiting ferroptosis. In this review, we summarize the core mechanism by which ferroptosis leads to the development of these cardiomyopathies. We emphasize the emerging types of therapeutic compounds that can inhibit ferroptosis and delineate their beneficial effects in treating cardiomyopathies. This review suggests that inhibiting ferroptosis pharmacologically may be a potential therapeutic strategy for cardiomyopathy treatment.
