Abstract
The abnormal initiation of autophagy flux in neurons after ischemic stroke caused dysfunction of autophagy-lysosome, which not only led to autophagy flux blockage, but also resulted in autophagic death of neurons. However, the pathological mechanism of neuronal autophagy-lysosome dysfunction did not form a unified viewpoint until now. In this review, taking the autophagy lysosomal dysfunction of neurons as a starting point, we summarized the molecular mechanisms that led to neuronal autophagy lysosomal dysfunction after ischemic stroke, which would provide theoretical basis for the clinical treatment of ischemic stroke.

[PMID: 36110217 PMCID: PMC9468645 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.983672] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most frequent cancer in humans globally. In addition to smoking and drinking, genetic and epigenetic changes also play a big role in how HNSCC starts and grows. MicroRNAs are short, non-coding RNAs that control cell differentiation and apoptosis by interfering with gene expression. In addition, microRNAs in HNSCC have been shown to affect the clinical behaviors of HNSCC in amazing ways. Moreover, metabolic reprogramming is a key part of cancer and is needed for cancer to turn into a tumor and grow. But it is still not clear what effect microRNAs related to fatty acid metabolism have on the prognosis of HNSCC patients. We downloaded the data of HNSCC patients from the TCGA database and obtained the genes associated with fatty acid metabolism according to the GSEA database. Then, the microRNAs associated with fatty acid metabolism genes were matched. Finally, fatty acid metabolism gene-associated microRNAs for calculating risk scores and then building multifactorial Cox regression models in patients with HNSCC. Heatmap analysis showed that microRNAs involved in fatty acid metabolism were significantly different in HNSCC patients than in healthy controls. A total of 27 microRNAs associated with fatty acid metabolism were screened by univariate Cox analysis (p < 0.05). Using lasso regression, 18 microRNAs substantially linked with the prognosis of HNSCC patients were identified and included in risk scores. The ROC curves demonstrate that risk scores derived from microRNAs involved in fatty acid metabolism can accurately predict the prognosis of HNSCC patients at 1, 3, and 5 years. Moreover, we discovered that 11 microRNAs included in the risk score properly distinguished the prognosis of HNSCC patients. This paper indicated that microRNAs involved with fatty acid metabolism are strongly linked to the prognosis of HNSCC patients. It also indicated that reprogramming of fatty acid metabolism in tumor tissues may play an important role in HNSCC cancer.

Mol Brain 2020; 13:113. [PMID: 32799888 PMCID: PMC7429711 DOI: 10.1186/s13041-020-00651-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2020] [Accepted: 08/03/2020] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
As the main organelles for the clearance of damaged proteins and damaged organelles, the function of lysosomes is crucial for maintaining the intracellular homeostasis of long-lived neurons. A stable acidic environment is essential for lysosomes to perform their functions. TMEM175 has been identified as a new K+ channel that is responsible for regulating lysosomal membrane potential and pH stability in neurons. This study aimed to understand the role of TMEM175 in lysosomal function of neurons and neuronal injury following cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). A middle-cerebral-artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) model was established in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats in vivo, and cultured neurons were exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) to mimic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in vitro. We found that the protein level of TMEM175 decreased after cerebral I/R injury and that TMEM175 overexpression ameliorated MCAO/R-induced brain-cell death and neurobehavioral deficits in vivo. Furthermore, these results were recapitulated in cultured neurons. Acridine orange (AO) staining, as well as LysoSensor Green DND-189, cathepsin-B (CTSB), and cathepsin-D (CTSD) activities, showed that TMEM175 deficiency inhibited the hydrolytic function of lysosomes by affecting lysosomal pH. In contrast, TMEM175 upregulation reversed OGD/R-induced lysosomal dysfunction and impaired mitochondrial accumulation in cultured neurons. TMEM175 deficiency induced by cerebral I/R injury leads to compromised lysosomal pH stability, thus inhibiting the hydrolytic function of lysosomes. Consequently, lysosomal-dependent degradation of damaged mitochondria is suppressed and thereby exacerbates brain damage. Exogenous up-regulation of TMEM175 protein level could reverse the neuronal lysosomal dysfunction after ischemia-reperfusion.
