Bresson SE, Ruzzin J. Persistent organic pollutants disrupt the oxidant/antioxidant balance of INS-1E pancreatic β-cells causing their physiological dysfunctions. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2024; 190:108821. [PMID: 38885551 DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2024.108821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have emerged as potent diabetogenic agents, but their mechanisms of action remain poorly identified. OBJECTIVES In this study, we aim to determine the mechanisms regulating the damaging effects of POPs in pancreatic β-cells, which have a central role in the development of diabetes. METHODS We treated INS-1E pancreatic β-cells with PCB-153, p,p'-DDE, PCB-126, or TCDD at doses ranging from 1 × 10-15to 5 × 10-6M. We measured insulin content and secretion, cell viability and assessed the mRNA expression of the xenobiotic nuclear receptors Nr1i2 and Nr1i3, and the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr). In addition, we evaluated the antioxidant defense and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Finally, we studied the ability of the antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) to counteract the effects of POPs in INS-1E cells. RESULTS When exposed to environmental POP levels, INS-1E cells had impaired production and secretion of insulin. These defects were observed for all tested POPs and were paralleled by reduced Ins1 and Ins2 mRNA expression. While POP treatment for 3 days did not affect INS-1E cell viability, longer treatment progressively killed the cells. Furthermore, we found that the xenobiotic detoxification machinery is poorly expressed in the INS-1E cells, as characterized by the absence of Nr1i2 and Nr1i3 and their respective downstream targets Cyp3a1/Cyp3a2 and Cyp2b1/Cyp2b3, and the weak functionality of the Ahr/Cyp1a1 signaling. Interestingly, POPs dysregulated key antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidases, peroxiredoxins, thioredoxins, and catalases. In parallel, the production of intracellular ROS, including superoxide anion (O2•-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), was increased by POP exposure. Improving the oxidant scavenging capacity of INS-1E cells by NAC treatment restored the production and secretion of insulin. CONCLUSION By promoting oxidative stress and impairing the ability of INS-1E cells to produce and secrete insulin, this study reveals how POPs can mechanistically act as diabetogenic agents, and provides new scientific evidence supporting the concept that POPs are fueling the diabetes epidemics.

Abstract
Circadian rhythms are autonomous oscillators developed by the molecular circadian clock, essential for coordinating internal time with the external environment in a 24-h daily cycle. In mammals, this circadian clock system plays a major role in all physiological processes and severely affects human health. The regulation of the circadian clock extends beyond the clock genes to involve several clock-controlled genes. Hence, the aberrant expression of these clock genes leads to the downregulation of important targets that control the cell cycle and the ability to undergo apoptosis. This may lead to genomic instability and promotes carcinogenesis. Alteration in the clock genes and their modulation is recognized as a new approach for the development of effective treatment against several diseases, including cancer. Until now, there has been a lack of understanding of circadian rhythms and cancer disease. For that, this chapter aims to represent the core components of circadian rhythms and their function in cancer pathogenesis and progression. In addition, the clinical impacts, current clock drugs, and potential therapeutic targets have been discussed.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease with a high prevalence worldwide, and cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of mortality in patients with diabetes. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), which is prone to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, is defined as a cardiac dysfunction without conventional cardiac risk factors such as coronary heart disease and hypertension. Mitochondria are the centers of energy metabolism that are very important for maintaining the function of the heart. They are highly dynamic in response to environmental changes through mitochondrial dynamics. The disruption of mitochondrial dynamics is closely related to the occurrence and development of DCM. Mitochondrial dynamics are controlled by circadian clock and show oscillation rhythm. This rhythm enables mitochondria to respond to changing energy demands in different environments, but it is disordered in diabetes. In this review, we summarize the significant role of circadian clock-controlled mitochondrial dynamics in the etiology of DCM and hope to play a certain enlightening role in the treatment of DCM.

The nuclear receptor REV-ERBα is implicated in the alteration of β-cell autophagy and survival under diabetogenic conditions. Cell Death Dis 2022; 13:353. [PMID: 35428762 PMCID: PMC9012816 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-022-04767-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2021] [Revised: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/25/2022] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
Pancreatic β-cell failure in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with impaired regulation of autophagy which controls β-cell development, function, and survival through clearance of misfolded proteins and damaged organelles. However, the mechanisms responsible for defective autophagy in T2DM β-cells remain unknown. Since recent studies identified circadian clock transcriptional repressor REV-ERBα as a novel regulator of autophagy in cancer, in this study we set out to test whether REV-ERBα-mediated inhibition of autophagy contributes to the β-cell failure in T2DM. Our study provides evidence that common diabetogenic stressors (e.g., glucotoxicity and cytokine-mediated inflammation) augment β-cell REV-ERBα expression and impair β-cell autophagy and survival. Notably, pharmacological activation of REV-ERBα was shown to phenocopy effects of diabetogenic stressors on the β-cell through inhibition of autophagic flux, survival, and insulin secretion. In contrast, negative modulation of REV-ERBα was shown to provide partial protection from inflammation and glucotoxicity-induced β-cell failure. Finally, using bioinformatic approaches, we provide further supporting evidence for augmented REV-ERBα activity in T2DM human islets associated with impaired transcriptional regulation of autophagy and protein degradation pathways. In conclusion, our study reveals a previously unexplored causative relationship between REV-ERBα expression, inhibition of autophagy, and β-cell failure in T2DM.

PER2 Regulates Reactive Oxygen Species Production in the Circadian Susceptibility to Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in the Heart. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:6256399. [PMID: 34659637 PMCID: PMC8519710 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6256399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Revised: 08/15/2021] [Accepted: 08/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
The main objective of this study was to investigate the diurnal differences in Period 2 (PER2) expression in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. We investigated diurnal variations in oxidative stress and energy metabolism after myocardial I/R in vitro and in vivo. In addition, we also analyzed the effects of H2O2 treatment and serum shock in H9c2 cells transfected with silencing RNA against Per2 (siRNA-Per2) in vitro. We used C57BL/6 male mice to construct a model of I/R injury at zeitgeber time (ZT) 2 and ZT14 by synchronizing the circadian rhythms. Our in vivo analysis demonstrated that there were diurnal differences in the severity of injury caused by myocardial infarctions, with more injury occurring in the daytime. PER2 was significantly reduced in heart tissue in the daytime and was higher at night. Our results also showed that more severe injury of mitochondrial function in daytime produced more reactive oxygen species (ROS) and less ATP, which increased myocardial injury. In vitro, our findings presented a similar trend showing that apoptosis of H9c2 cells was increased when PER2 expression was lower. Meanwhile, downregulation of PER2 disrupted the oxidative balance by increasing ROS and mitochondrial injury. The result was a reduction in ATP and failure to provide sufficient energy protection for cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
Interleukin 1β (IL-1β) plays a major role in inflammation and is secreted by immune cells, such as macrophages, upon recognition of danger signals. Its secretion is regulated by the inflammasome, the assembly of which results in caspase 1 activation leading to gasdermin D (GSDMD) pore formation and IL-1β release. During inflammation, danger signals also activate the complement cascade, resulting in the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC). Here, we report that stimulation of LPS-primed human macrophages with sub-lytic levels of MAC results in activation of the NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and GSDMD-mediated IL-1β release. The MAC is first internalized into endosomes and then colocalizes with inflammasome components; adapter protein apoptosis associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC) and NLRP3. Pharmacological inhibitors established that MAC-triggered activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome was dependent on MAC endocytosis. Internalization of the MAC also caused dispersion of the trans-Golgi network. Thus, these data uncover a role for the MAC in activating the inflammasome and triggering IL-1β release in human macrophages.
