Inhibition of visfatin alleviates sepsis-induced intestinal damage by inhibiting Hippo signaling pathway. Inflamm Res 2022; 71:911-922. [PMID: 35731253 PMCID: PMC9307557 DOI: 10.1007/s00011-022-01593-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2022] [Revised: 05/12/2022] [Accepted: 05/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The aim of this study is to investigate role of Visfatin, one of the pro-inflammatory adipokines, in sepsis-induced intestinal injury and to clarify the potential mechanism. Methods C57BL/6 mice underwent cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) surgery to establish sepsis model in vivo. Intestinal epithelial cells were stimulated with LPS to mimic sepsis-induced intestinal injury in vitro. FK866 (the inhibitor of Visfatin) with or without XMU-MP-1 (the inhibitor of Hippo signaling) was applied for treatment. The expression levels of Visfatin, NF-κB and Hippo signaling pathways-related proteins were detected by western blot or immunohistochemistry. The intestinal cell apoptosis and intestinal injury were investigated by TUNEL staining and H&E staining, respectively. ELISA was used to determine the production of inflammatory cytokines. Results The expression of Visfatin increased in CLP mice. FK866 reduced intestinal pathological injury, inflammatory cytokines production, and intestinal cell apoptosis in sepsis mice. Meanwhile, FK866 affected NF-κB and Hippo signaling pathways. Additionally, the effects of FK866 on inflammatory response, apoptosis, Hippo signaling and NF-κB signaling were partly abolished by XMU-MP-1, the inhibitor of Hippo signaling. In vitro experiments also revealed that FK866 exhibited a protective role against LPS-induced inflammatory response and apoptosis in intestinal cells, as well as regulating NF-κB and Hippo signaling, whereas addition of XMU-MP-1 weakened the protective effects of FK866. Conclusion In short, this study demonstrated that inhibition of Visfatin might alleviate sepsis-induced intestinal injury through Hippo signaling pathway, supporting a further research on Visfatin as a therapeutic target.

Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 10:842214. [PMID: 35656547 PMCID: PMC9152322 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2022.842214] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The FLT3-ITD mutation occurs in about 30% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is associated with poor prognosis. However, FLT3 inhibitors are only partially effective and prone to acquired resistance. Here, we identified Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) as a tumor suppressor in FLT3-ITD+ AML. YAP1 inactivation conferred FLT3-ITD+ AML cell resistance to chemo- and targeted therapy. Mass spectrometric assay revealed that DNA damage repair gene poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) might be the downstream of YAP1, and the pro-proliferative effect by YAP1 knockdown was partly reversed via PARP1 inhibitor. Importantly, histone deacetylase 10 (HDAC10) contributed to decreased YAP1 acetylation levels through histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) acetylation, leading to the reduced nuclear accumulation of YAP1. Selective HDAC10 inhibitor chidamide or HDAC10 knockdown activated YAP1, enhanced DNA damage, and significantly attenuated FLT3-ITD+ AML cell resistance. In addition, combination chidamide with FLT3 inhibitors or chemotherapy agents synergistically inhibited growth and increased apoptosis of FLT3-ITD+ AML cell lines and acquired resistant cells from the relapse FLT3-ITD+ AML patients. These findings demonstrate that the HDAC10-YAP1-PARP1 axis maintains FLT3-ITD+ AML cells and targeting this axis might improve clinical outcomes in FLT3-ITD+ AML patients.

Abstract
In order to ascertain their external environment, cells and tissues have the capability to sense and process a variety of stresses, including stretching and compression forces. These mechanical forces, as experienced by cells and tissues, are then converted into biochemical signals within the cell, leading to a number of cellular mechanisms being activated, including proliferation, differentiation and migration. If the conversion of mechanical cues into biochemical signals is perturbed in any way, then this can be potentially implicated in chronic disease development and processes such as neurological disorders, cancer and obesity. This review will focus on how the interplay between mechanotransduction, cellular structure, metabolism and signalling cascades led by the Hippo-YAP/TAZ axis can lead to a number of chronic diseases and suggest how we can target various pathways in order to design therapeutic targets for these debilitating diseases and conditions.

Aging (Albany NY) 2019; 11:9643-9660. [PMID: 31689236 PMCID: PMC6874452 DOI: 10.18632/aging.102410] [Citation(s) in RCA: 44] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2019] [Accepted: 10/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
In this study, we investigated the role of ubiquitin-specific protease 22 (USP22) in the growth and progression of gastric cancer (GC). USP22 mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher in GC tissue samples and GC cell lines than in adjacent noncancerous tissue samples and a normal gastric mucosal epithelial cell line (GES1), respectively. USP22 knockdown significantly decreased in vitro survival, proliferation, migration, and invasiveness of GC cells compared with the controls. Western blot analysis of control and USP22-silenced GC cells showed that USP22 modulates the c-Myc/NAMPT/SIRT1-dependent FOXO1 and YAP signaling pathways. Subcutanenous injection of USP22-silenced GC cells into SCID mice generated significantly smaller xenograft tumors than did control cells. Moreover, USP22-silenced GC cells showed less lung metastasis than the controls following tail vein injection in SCID mice. In addition, high USP22 expression correlated positively with tumor size, advanced stage and metastasis, and correlated negatively with tumor differentiation and prognosis in GC patients. These results show that USP22 regulates growth and progression of GC via the c-Myc/NAMPT/SIRT1-dependent FOXO1 and YAP signaling pathways.

Abstract
Human beings are facing emerging degenerative and cancer diseases, in large part, as a consequence of increased life expectancy. In the near future, researchers will have to put even more effort into fighting these new challenges, one of which will be prevention of cancer while continuing to improve the aging process through this increased life expectancy. In the last few decades, relevance of the Hippo pathway on cancer has become an important study since it is a major regulator of organ size control and proliferation. However, its deregulation can induce tumors throughout the body by regulating cell proliferation, disrupting cell polarity, releasing YAP and TAZ from the Scribble complexes and facilitating survival gene expression via activation of TEAD transcription factors. This pathway is also involved in some of the most important mechanisms that control the aging processes, such as the AMP-activated protein kinase and sirtuin pathways, along with autophagy and oxidative stress response/antioxidant defense. This could be the link between two tightly connected processes that could open a broader range of targeted molecular therapies to fight aging and cancer. Therefore, available knowledge of the processes involved in the Hippo pathway during aging and cancer must necessarily be well understood.
