Abstract
Cardiomyopathies (CMs) are highly heterogeneous progressive heart diseases characterised by structural and functional abnormalities of the heart, whose intricate pathogenesis has resulted in a lack of effective treatment options. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also known as Tripartite motif protein 72 (TRIM72), is a tripartite motif family protein from the immuno-proteomic library expressed primarily in the heart and skeletal muscle. Recent studies have identified MG53 as a potential cardioprotective protein that may play a crucial role in CMs. Therefore, the objective of this review is to comprehensively examine the underlying mechanisms mediated by MG53 responsible for myocardial protection, elucidate the potential role of MG53 in various CMs as well as its dominant status in the diagnosis and prognosis of human myocardial injury, and evaluate the potential therapeutic value of recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) in CMs. It is expected to yield novel perspectives regarding the clinical diagnosis and therapeutic treatment of CMs.

Alkylation Repair Homolog 5 Regulates N(6)-methyladenosine (m6A) Methylation of Mitsugumin 53 to Attenuate Myocardial Infarction by Inhibiting Apoptosis and Oxidative Stress. J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2024; 83:183-192.

Abstract
ABSTRACT N(6)-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification is involved in the progression of myocardial infarction (MI). In this study, we investigated the effects of demethylase alkylation repair homolog 5 (ALKBH5) on cell apoptosis and oxidative stress in MI. The ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury mouse model and hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) cell model were established. The levels of ALKBH5 and mitsugumin 53 (MG53) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, immunohistochemical, and immunofluorescence analysis. Apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL assay, flow cytometry, and western blot. Oxidative stress was assessed by antioxidant index kits. Methylation was analyzed by RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP), MeRIP, and dual-luciferase reporter assay. We observed that ALKBH5 and MG53 were highly expressed in MI. Overexpression of ALKBH5 inhibited H/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and oxidative stress in vitro, and it inhibited I/R-induced collagen deposition, cardiac function, and apoptosis in vivo. ALKBH5 could bind to MG53, inhibit m6A methylation of MG53, and increase its mRNA stability. Silencing of MG53 counteracted the inhibition of apoptosis and oxidative stress induced by ALKBH5. In conclusion, ALKBH5 suppressed m6A methylation of MG53 and inhibited MG53 degradation to inhibit apoptosis and oxidative stress of cardiomyocytes, thereby attenuating MI. The results provided a theoretical basis that ALKBH5 is a potential target for MI treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) is a membrane repair factor that is associated with acute myocardial infarction. This study aimed to investigate the effects of MG53 on cardiomyocyte injury and the posttranslational modification of MG53. METHODS Cardiomyocyte injury was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and flow cytometry. The succinylation and ubiquitination levels of MG53 were examined by immunoprecipitation (IP) and western blot. The relationship between MG53 and KAT3B or SIRT7 was assessed by co-IP and immunofluorescence. RESULTS The results showed that overexpression of MG53 inhibited inflammation response and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). Succinylation and protein levels of MG53 were downregulated in H/R-induced cells, which was inhibited by SIRT7 and promoted by KAT3B. SIRT7 aggravated and KAT3B alleviated MG53-mediated cardiomyocyte injury. Moreover, MG53 was succinylated and ubiquitinated at K130. CONCLUSION SIRT7 inhibited/KAT3B promoted succinylation of MG53 at K130 sites, which suppressed ubiquitination of MG53 and upregulated its protein levels, thereby alleviating H/R-induced cardiomyocyte injury. The findings suggested that MG53 may be a potential therapy for myocardial infarction.

Abstract
AIMS Subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are characterized by a high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. MG53, a marker of peripheral insulin resistance, has been linked with impaired β-cell function and decreased β-cell survival, and its circulating levels are increased in T2D. Its relationship with the cardiovascular risk profile and mortality in T2D is currently unknown. METHODS In this longitudinal study, MG53 was measured in serum samples collected at baseline for 296 Caucasian participants in the MIND.IT study, relating its circulating levels with the cardiovascular risk profile and all-cause mortality over a 17-years follow up. RESULTS As compared to a reference cohort of 234 healthy subjects, MG53 levels were higher in T2D individuals (p < 0.001), and higher in T2D women than in men (p = 0.001). In the whole study cohort, MG53 levels were directly related to HbA1c (r2 0.029; p = 0.006) and systolic blood pressure (r2 0.032; p = 0.004). There was no difference in baseline MG53 levels between deceased and alive participants, neither predict all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS MG53 does not mark the cardiovascular risk profile neither predict long-term mortality in Caucasian T2D individuals.

Abstract
Tripartite motif (TRIM) protein superfamily is a group of E3 ubiquitin ligases characterized by the conserved RING domain, the B-box domain, and the coiled-coil domain (RBCC). It is widely involved in various physiological and pathological processes, such as intracellular signal transduction, cell cycle regulation, oncogenesis, and innate immune response. Central nervous system (CNS) diseases are composed of encephalopathy and spinal cord diseases, which have a high disability and mortality rate. Patients are often unable to take care of themselves and their life quality can be seriously declined. Initially, the function research of TRIM proteins mainly focused on cancer. However, in recent years, accumulating attention is paid to the roles they play in CNS diseases. In this review, we integrate the reported roles of TRIM proteins in the pathological process of CNS diseases and related signaling pathways, hoping to provide theoretical bases for further research in treating CNS diseases targeting TRIM proteins. TRIM proteins participated in CNS diseases. TRIM protein family is characterized by a highly conserved RBCC domain, referring to the RING domain, the B-box domain, and the coiled-coil domain. Recent research has discovered the relations between TRIM proteins and various CNS diseases, especially Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common clinical problem after coronary angioplasty, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and organ transplantation, which can lead to cell damage and death. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also known as Trim72, is a conservative member of the TRIM family and is highly expressed in mouse skeletal and cardiac muscle, with minimal amounts in humans. MG53 has been proven to be involved in repairing cell membrane damage. It has a protective effect on I/R injury in multiple oxygen-dependent organs, such as the heart, brain, lung, kidney, and liver. Recombinant human MG53 also plays a unique role in I/R, sepsis, and other aspects, which is expected to provide new ideas for related treatment. This article briefly reviews the pathophysiology of I/R injury and how MG53 mitigates multi-organ I/R injury.

Abstract
Macrophage polarization followed by myocardial infarction (MI) is essential for wound healing. Tripartite motif-containing protein 21 (TRIM21), a member of E3 ubiquitin ligases, is emerging as a mediator in cardiac injury and heart failure. However, its function in modulating post-MI macrophage polarization remains elusive. Here, we detected that the levels of TRIM21 significantly increased in macrophages of wild-type (WT) mice after MI. In contrast, MI was ameliorated in TRIM21 knockout (TRIM21-/-) mice with improved cardiac remodeling, characterized by a marked decrease in mortality, decreased infarct size, and improved cardiac function compared with WT-MI mice. Notably, TRIM21 deficiency impeded the post-MI apoptosis and DNA damage in the hearts of mice. Consistently, the accumulation of M1 phenotype macrophages in the infarcted tissues was significantly reduced with TRIM21 deletion. Mechanistically, the deletion of TRIM21 orchestrated the process of M1 macrophage polarization at least partly via a PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Overall, we identify TRIM21 drives the inflammatory response and cardiac remodeling by stimulating M1 macrophage polarization through a PI3K/Akt signaling pathway post-MI.

MG53 marks poor beta cell performance and predicts onset of type 2 diabetes in subjects with different degrees of glucose tolerance. DIABETES & METABOLISM 2021; 48:101292.

Abstract
AIM - MG53 is a myokine modulating insulin signalling in several tissues; its relationship to glucose tolerance or risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is unknown. This observational, prospective study aimed at evaluating the relationship between MG53 and glucose tolerance, testing whether its circulating levels may be associated with disease progression in a cohort at high risk of T2DM. METHODS - Five hundred and fifteen subjects who underwent a deep characterization of their glucose tolerance in the years 2003-2005 participated in this study. MG53 levels were measured at baseline. Glucose tolerance status was available over a follow-up of 15±2 years for 283 of them; their vital status as of December 2020 was also retrieved. RESULTS - MG53 levels were significantly lower in subjects with normal glucose tolerance than in subjects with impaired glucose regulation (IGR) or T2DM. Individuals in the highest MG53 levels quartile had more frequently 1h-post load glucose ≥155 mg/dL (54% vs 39%; p=0.015), worse proportional control of β-cell function (p<0.05-0.01), as determined by mathematical modelling, and worse Disposition Index (DI) (0.0155±0.0081 vs 0.0277±0.0030; p<0.0001). At follow-up, baseline MG53 levels were higher in progressors than in non-progressors (120.1±76.7 vs 72.7±63.2 pg/ml; p=0.001; ROC curve area for incident diabetes of 0.704). In a multivariable regression with classic risk factors for T2DM and DI, MG53 remained independently associated with progression with T2DM. CONCLUSION - MG53 may be a novel biomarker of glucose dysregulation associated with β-cell dysfunction, likely improving our ability to identify, among high-risk subjects, those more likely to develop T2DM.

Abstract
Heart disease remains the leading cause of mortality globally, so further investigation is required to identify its underlying mechanisms and potential targets for treatment and prevention. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also known as TRIM72, is a TRIM family protein that was found to be involved in cell membrane repair and primarily found in striated muscle. Its role in skeletal muscle regeneration and myogenesis has been well documented. However, accumulating evidence suggests that MG53 has a potentially protective role in heart tissue, including in ischemia/reperfusion injury of the heart, cardiomyocyte membrane injury repair, and atrial fibrosis. This review summarizes the regulatory role of MG53 in cardiac tissues, current debates regarding MG53 in diabetes and diabetic cardiomyopathy, as well as highlights potential clinical applications of MG53 in treating cardiac pathologies.
