Mesenchymal stromal/stem cell tissue source and in vitro expansion impact extracellular vesicle protein and miRNA compositions as well as angiogenic and immunomodulatory capacities.

Abstract
Recently, therapies utilizing extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) have begun to show promise in clinical trials. However, EV therapeutic potential varies with MSC tissue source and in vitro expansion through passaging. To find the optimal MSC source for clinically translatable EV-derived therapies, this study aims to compare the angiogenic and immunomodulatory potentials and the protein and miRNA cargo compositions of EVs isolated from the two most common clinical sources of adult MSCs, bone marrow and adipose tissue, across different passage numbers. Primary bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs) and adipose-derived MSCs (ASCs) were isolated from adult female Lewis rats and expanded in vitro to the indicated passage numbers (P2, P4, and P8). EVs were isolated from the culture medium of P2, P4, and P8 BMSCs and ASCs and characterized for EV size, number, surface markers, protein content, and morphology. EVs isolated from different tissue sources showed different EV yields per cell, EV sizes, and protein yield per EV. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses of proteomics data and miRNA seq data identified key proteins and pathways associated with differences between BMSC-EVs and ASC-EVs, as well as differences due to passage number. In vitro tube formation assays employing human umbilical vein endothelial cells suggested that both tissue source and passage number had significant effects on the angiogenic capacity of EVs. With or without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, EVs more significantly impacted expression of M2-macrophage genes (IL-10, Arg1, TGFβ) than M1-macrophage genes (IL-6, NOS2, TNFα). By correlating the proteomics analyses with the miRNA seq analysis and differences observed in our in vitro immunomodulatory, angiogenic, and proliferation assays, this study highlights the trade-offs that may be necessary in selecting the optimal MSC source for development of clinical EV therapies.

Pang B, Zheng H, Ma S, Tian J, Wen Y. Nitric oxide sensor NsrR is the key direct regulator of magnetosome formation and nitrogen metabolism in Magnetospirillum. Nucleic Acids Res 2024; 52:2924-2941. [PMID: 38197240 PMCID: PMC11014258 DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkad1230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an essential role as signaling molecule in regulation of eukaryotic biomineralization, but its role in prokaryotic biomineralization is unknown. Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense MSR-1, a model strain for studies of prokaryotic biomineralization, has the unique ability to form magnetosomes (magnetic organelles). We demonstrate here that magnetosome biomineralization in MSR-1 requires the presence of NsrRMg (an NO sensor) and a certain level of NO. MSR-1 synthesizes endogenous NO via nitrification-denitrification pathway to activate magnetosome formation. NsrRMg was identified as a global transcriptional regulator that acts as a direct activator of magnetosome gene cluster (MGC) and nitrification genes but as a repressor of denitrification genes. Specific levels of NO modulate DNA-binding ability of NsrRMg to various target promoters, leading to enhancing expression of MGC genes, derepressing denitrification genes, and repressing nitrification genes. These regulatory functions help maintain appropriate endogenous NO level. This study identifies for the first time the key transcriptional regulator of major MGC genes, clarifies the molecular mechanisms underlying NsrR-mediated NO signal transduction in magnetosome formation, and provides a basis for a proposed model of the role of NO in the evolutionary origin of prokaryotic biomineralization processes.

Abstract
Oxygen fluctuations are common in freshwater habitats and aquaculture and can impact ecologically and economically important species of fish like cyprinids. To gain insight into the physiological responses to oxygen fluctuations in two common cyprinid species, we evaluated the impact of short-term intermittent hypoxia on oxidative stress and metabolic parameters (including levels of prooxidants and oxidative lesions, antioxidants, mitochondrial enzyme activities, mitochondrial swelling, markers of apoptosis, autophagy and cytotoxicity) in silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and gibel carp Carassius gibelio. During hypoxia, gibel carp showed higher baseline levels of antioxidants and less pronounced changes in oxidative and metabolic biomarkers in the tissues than silver carp. Reoxygenation led to a strong shift in metabolic and redox-related parameters and tissue damage, indicating high cost of post-hypoxic recovery in both species. Species-specific differences were more strongly associated with oxidative stress status, whereas metabolic indices and nitrosative stress parameters were more relevant to the response to hypoxia-reoxygenation. Overall, regulation of energy metabolism appears more critical than the regulation of antioxidants in the response to oxygen deprivation in the studied species. Further research is needed to establish whether prioritizing metabolic over redox regulation during hypoxia-reoxygenation stress is common in freshwater cyprinids.

Abstract
The DNA-encoded library (DEL) is a powerful hit-generation tool in drug discovery. This study describes a new DEL with a privileged scaffold quinazolin-4(3H)-one developed by a robust DNA-compatible multicomponent reaction and a series of novel glutathione S-transferase (GST) inhibitors that were identified through affinity-mediated DEL selection. A novel inhibitor 16 was subsequently verified with an inhibitory potency value of 1.55 ± 0.02 μM against SjGST and 2.02 ± 0.20 μM against hGSTM2. Further optimization was carried out via various structure-activity relationship studies. And especially, the co-crystal structure of the compound 16 with the SjGST was unveiled, which clearly demonstrated its binding mode was quite different from the known GSH-like compounds. This new type of probe is likely to play a different role compared with the GSH, which may provide new opportunities to discover more potent GST inhibitors.

Structural insights into the interactions of glutathione transferases with a nitric oxide carrier and sodium nitroprusside. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2023; 649:79-86.

Abstract
Glutathione transferases are detoxification enzymes with multifaceted roles, including a role in the metabolism and scavenging of nitric oxide (NO) compounds in cells. Here, we explored the ability of Trametes versicolor glutathione transferases (GSTs) from the Omega class (TvGSTOs) to bind metal-nitrosyl compounds. TvGSTOs have been studied previously for their ligandin role and are interesting models to study protein‒ligand interactions. First, we determined the X-ray structure of the TvGSTO3S isoform bound to the dinitrosyl glutathionyl iron complex (DNGIC), a physiological compound involved in the storage of nitric oxide. Our results suggested a different binding mode compared to the one previously described in human GST Pi 1 (GSTP1). Then, we investigated the manner in which TvGSTO3S binds three nonphysiological metal-nitrosyl compounds with different metal cores (iron, ruthenium and osmium). We assayed sodium nitroprusside, a well-studied vasodilator used in cases of hypertensive crises or heart failure. Our results showed that the tested GST can bind metal-nitrosyls at two distinct binding sites. Thermal shift analysis with six isoforms of TvGSTOs identified TvGSTO6S as the best interactant. Using the Griess method, TvGSTO6S was found to improve the release of nitric oxide from sodium nitroprusside in vitro, whereas the effects of human GST alpha 1 (GSTA1) and GSTP1 were moderate. Our results open new structural perspectives for understanding the interactions of glutathione transferases with metal-nitrosyl compounds associated with the biochemical mechanisms of NO uptake/release in biological systems.
