Influence of SERPINA1 Gene Polymorphisms on Anemia and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. J Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone Syst 2022; 2022:2238320. [PMID: 36320441 PMCID: PMC9592209 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2238320] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 09/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anemia is one of the predominant hematological conditions, whereas chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a predominant respiratory disease. These two diseases were found to be interlinked, but the physiological pathways are still unclear. AIM The current study has been aimed at analysing the genetic interrelationship between anemia and COPD in accordance with different altitudes. Methodology. The genetic analysis was performed in the SERPINA1 gene of anemia, COPD, and healthy individuals for the analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism at rs28949274 and rs17580 locations. Result and Discussion. The single nucleotide polymorphism at the locations rs28949274 and rs17580 was present in both anemic and COPD patients. The COPD patients were more prone to mutations (63% had rs28949274, and 11% had rs17580 polymorphisms) than the anemic patients (40% had rs28949274, and 1% had rs17580 polymorphisms). On the basis of altitude, high-altitude individuals were found to be more susceptible to both the polymorphisms. CONCLUSION Based on the current findings, we suggest that the SERPINA1 gene has a positive correlation with anemia as well as COPD, and the increase in altitude also influences the diseased conditions in a positive manner.

Ubiquitination of ADRα1d/SerpinA1 complex stimulates hypoxia to induce gastric tumorigenesis with a combination of Helicobacter pylori and chronic stress through IL-1α. Gastric Cancer 2022; 25:726-740. [PMID: 35532840 DOI: 10.1007/s10120-022-01297-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has been recognized as the class I carcinogen of gastric cancer and several studies have demonstrated that chronic stress may accelerate gastric cancer progression. However, the evidence is not sufficient. METHODS Here, we developed a mouse model that combined H. pylori infection with chronic stress. Gastric inflammation promotes gastric tumor development progression. To evaluate the number of pro-inflammatory cells through observing the numbers of activated macrophages and neutrophils in mice gastric tumors compared with untreated mice or only treated with one factor. ADRα1d /SerpinA1 expression and localization were assessed under stress conditions and H. pylori infection, and evaluated by analyzing IL-1α, CD8, platelet, and RBC status using α- or β- blockers against gastritis to prevent gastric cancer. RESULTS Further mechanism study showed that stress hormones increase the number of CD8+ lymphocytes by activating ADRβ2 receptors, leading to IL-1α secretion and tumorigenicity. Gastric carcinogenesis also involves gastric muscle contraction mediated through ADRα1d/Serpina1 interaction. Specifically, we showed that the ADRα1d/SerpinA1 complex increases glucose uptake and the development of hypoxia conditions. These responses promote platelet aggregation and muscle contraction. In turn, gastric cancer cells increase lactate production and promote gastric cell proliferation through Muc-13 and IL-1α stimulation. CONCLUSION H. pylori infection in combination with chronic stress can lead to gastric cancer, and the synergistic effects of cytokine production (i.e. IL-1α), T lymphocyte dysfunction contributes to gastric carcinogenesis which will offer treatment opportunities for stress-associated gastric cancer and provide new strategies for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer in clinics.

Abstract
Differences in hydroxyurea response in sickle cell anemia may arise due to a series of factors with genetic factors appearing to be predominant. This study aims to investigate the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes and solute carriers on hydroxyurea response, in patients with sickle cell anemia. For that purpose, a total number of 90 patients with sickle cell anemia were recruited, 45 were undergoing hydroxyurea treatment, while 45 were not under the treatment. Association analyses were performed between CYP3A4 (rs2740574), CYP2D6 (rs3892097), CAT (rs7943316 and rs1001179), and SLC14A1 (rs2298720) variants and laboratory parameters. According to our findings, patients with hydroxyurea treatment demonstrated higher HbF levels and a significant improvement in hemolytic, hepatic, inflammatory, and lipid parameters in comparison to those without the treatment. We also found significant associations between the CYP2D6 (rs3892097), CAT (rs7943316 and rs1001179), and SLC14A1 (rs2298720) variants and an improvement of the therapeutic effects, specifically the hemolytic, hepatic, inflammatory, lipid, and renal parameters. In conclusion, our results highlight the importance of the investigated variants, and their strong association with hydroxyurea efficacy in patients with sickle cell anemia, which may be considered in the future as genetic markers.

Abstract
Seminal plasma is a rich source of proteins and serves as an ideal sample for proteomic analysis of male infertility. In varicocele-associated infertility, the contributory role of seminal plasma proteins specific to unilateral and bilateral varicocele is not clear. Furthermore, there is a lack of specific protein biomarker to differentiate bilateral from unilateral varicocele. The main objective is to identify the differentially regulated molecular and cellular pathways in bilateral varicocele. Furthermore, we intend to identify seminal plasma biomarkers to differentiate bilateral and unilateral varicocele patients in comparison with fertile healthy men. Global proteomic analysis of seminal plasma proteins has identified the functionality of differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in varicocele patients. Bioinformatic analysis has revealed response to reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress, and tissue homeostasis as top process pathways that are affected in bilateral varicocele patients compared to fertile healthy men. In comparison with unilateral varicocele patients, inflammatory response pathways were dysregulated, especially interleukin 6 (IL-6) signaling and Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (Jak-STAT) pathways, in bilateral varicocele patients, owing to the involvement of underexpressed DEPs. Key DEPs associated with oxidative stress (peroxiredoxin 2; PRDX2), DNA fragmentation (fatty acid synthase; FASN), and inflammatory response (fibronectin 1; FN1) validated by western blot analysis revealed differential expression of these proteins in unilateral and bilateral varicocele groups. Altered expression of DEPs and its association with key processes show that the seminal plasma homeostasis is compromised in bilateral varicocele patients. Furthermore, we propose PRDX2, FASN, and FN1 as potential noninvasive seminal plasma markers for the differentiation of unilateral and bilateral varicocele patients.

Proteomic analysis reveals the protective effects of emodin on severe acute pancreatitis induced lung injury by inhibiting neutrophil proteases activity. J Proteomics 2020; 220:103760. [PMID: 32244009 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2020.103760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2020] [Revised: 03/04/2020] [Accepted: 03/23/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is the most common remote organ complication induced by severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Almost 60-70% SAP-induced deaths are caused by ALI. Efficient clinical therapeutic strategy for SAP-induced ALI is still lacking. In this study, we demonstrate that Emodin (EMO) can significantly alleviate SAP-induced ALI. We investigate the therapeutic mechanisms of EMO by proteomic analysis, which indicates that EMO protects lung tissue against SAP-ALI by negative regulation of endopeptidase activity and inhibition of collagen-containing extracellular matrix degradation. Protein-protein interaction analysis showed Lamc2, Serpina1 and Serpinb1 play important roles in the above pathways. This study elucidates the possible mechanism and suggests the candidacy of EMO in the clinical treatment of SAP-ALI. SIGNIFICANCE: ALI is a major leading cause of death in SAP. DEX is the standard of care drug for treatment of SAP-ALI, but often associated with inevitable side effects. In the present study, EMO was demonstrated to greatly alleviate the lung injury induced by SAP. Through proteomic analysis, the recovered protein profiles in response to EMO treatment in SAP-ALI rat models was obtained, among which Lamc2, Serpina1 and Serpinb1 were discovered as crucial regulatory proteins in SAP-ALI disease. Our study provides the underlying mechanisms and novel targets of EMO protective effect against SAP-ALI.

Abstract
Sickle cell disease (SCD) consists of a group of hemoglobinopathies in which individuals present highly variable clinical manifestations. Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is the most severe form, while SC hemoglobinopathy (HbSC) is thought to be milder. Thus, we investigated the clinical manifestations and laboratory parameters by comparing each SCD genotype. We designed a cross-sectional study including 126 SCA individuals and 55 HbSC individuals in steady-state. Hematological, biochemical and inflammatory characterization was performed as well as investigation of previous history of clinical events. SCA patients exhibited most prominent anemia, hemolysis, leukocytosis and inflammation, whereas HbSC patients had increased lipid determinations. The main cause of hospitalization was pain crises on both genotypes. Vaso-occlusive events and pain crises were associated with hematological, inflammatory and anemia biomarkers on both groups. Cluster analysis reveals hematological, inflammatory, hemolytic, endothelial dysfunction and anemia biomarkers in HbSC disease as well as SCA. The results found herein corroborate with previous studies suggesting that SCA and HbSC, although may be similar from the genetic point of view, exhibit different clinical manifestations and laboratory alterations which are useful to monitor the clinical course of each genotype.

Abstract
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by hemolysis, inflammation, and pain. Mechanisms of pain manifestation are complex, and there is a major gap in knowledge of how the nervous and immune systems interact to contribute to pain and other comorbidities in SCD. Sterile inflammation in the periphery and central nervous system contributes to vascular and neural activation. Cellular and soluble mediators create an inflammatory and neuroinflammatory microenvironment contributing to neurogenic inflammation and acute and chronic pain. In this review we highlight relevant neuro-immune interactions that contribute to the pathobiology of SCD.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the predominant immune cells in human blood possessing heterogeneity, plasticity and functional diversity. The activation and recruitment of neutrophils into inflamed tissue in response to stimuli are tightly regulated processes. Alpha1-Antitrypsin (AAT), an acute phase protein, is one of the potent regulators of neutrophil activation via both -protease inhibitory and non-inhibitory functions. This review summarizes our current understanding of the effects of AAT on neutrophils, illustrating the interplay between AAT and the key effector functions of neutrophils.
