Abstract
Oxidative stress is involved in the development of several pathologies. The different reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during oxidative stress are at the origin of redox post-translational modifications (PTMs) on proteins and impact nucleic acids and lipids. This review provides an overview of recent data on cysteine and methionine oxidation and protein carbonylation following oxidative stress in a pathological context. Oxidation, like nitration, is a selective process and not all proteins are impacted. It depends on multiple factors, including amino acid environment, accessibility, and physical and chemical properties, as well as protein structures. Thiols can undergo reversible oxidations and others that are irreversible. On the contrary, carbonylation represents irreversible PTM. To date, hundreds of proteins were shown to be modified by ROS and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). We reviewed recent advances in the impact of redox-induced PTMs on protein functions and activity, as well as its involvement in disease development or treatment. These data show a complex situation of the involvement of redox PTM on the function of targeted proteins. Many proteins can have their activity decreased by the oxidation of cysteine thiols or methionine S-methyl thioethers, while for other proteins, this oxidation will be activating. This complexity of redox PTM regulation suggests that a global antioxidant therapeutic approach, as often proposed, is unlikely to be effective. However, the specificity of the effect obtained by targeting a cysteine or methionine residue to be able to inactivate or activate a particular protein represents a major interest if it is possible to consider this targeting from a therapeutic point of view with our current pharmacological tools.

Sandrelli F, Bisaglia M. Molecular and Physiological Determinants of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: What the DJ-1 Protein Teaches Us. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24087674.

Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset disease which causes the progressive degeneration of cortical and spinal motoneurons, leading to death a few years after the first symptom onset. ALS is mainly a sporadic disorder, and its causative mechanisms are mostly unclear. About 5-10% of cases have a genetic inheritance, and the study of ALS-associated genes has been fundamental in defining the pathological pathways likely also involved in the sporadic forms of the disease. Mutations affecting the DJ-1 gene appear to explain a subset of familial ALS forms. DJ-1 is involved in multiple molecular mechanisms, acting primarily as a protective agent against oxidative stress. Here, we focus on the involvement of DJ-1 in interconnected cellular functions related to mitochondrial homeostasis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, energy metabolism, and hypoxia response, in both physiological and pathological conditions. We discuss the possibility that impairments in one of these pathways may affect the others, contributing to a pathological background in which additional environmental or genetic factors may act in favor of the onset and/or progression of ALS. These pathways may represent potential therapeutic targets to reduce the likelihood of developing ALS and/or slow disease progression.

Abstract
Methylglyoxal (MGO) is a reactive dicarbonyl compound formed as a byproduct of glycolysis. MGO is a major cell-permeant precursor of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), since it readily reacts with basic phospholipids and nucleotides, as well as amino acid residues of proteins, such as arginine, cysteine, and lysine. The AGEs production induced by MGO are widely associated with several pathologies, including neurodegenerative diseases. However, the impact of MGO metabolism and AGEs formation in the central nervous system (particularly in neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes) on behavior and psychiatric diseases is not fully understood. Here, we briefly present background information on the biological activity of MGO in the central nervous system. It was gathered the available information on the role of MGO metabolism at the physiological processes, as well as at the neurobiology of psychiatry diseases, especially pain-related experiences, anxiety, depression, and cognition impairment-associated diseases. To clarify the role of MGO on behavior and associated diseases, we reviewed primarily the main findings at preclinical studies focusing on genetic and pharmacological approaches. Since monoamine neurotransmitter systems are implicated as pivotal targets on the pathophysiology and treatment of psychiatry and cognitive-related diseases, we also reviewed how MGO affects these neurotransmission systems and the implications of this phenomenon for nociception and pain; learning and cognition; and mood. In summary, this review highlights the pivotal role of glyoxalase 1 (Glo1) and MGO levels in modulating behavioral phenotypes, as well as related cellular and molecular signaling. Conclusively, this review signals dopamine as a new neurochemical MGO target, as well as highlights how MGO metabolism can modulate the pathophysiology and treatment of pain, psychiatric and cognitive-related diseases.

Abstract
DJ-1, also called Parkinson’s protein 7 (PARK7), is ubiquitously expressed and plays multiple actions in different physiological and, especially, pathophysiological processes, as evidenced by its identification in neurodegenerative diseases and its high expression in different types of cancer. To date, the exact activity of DJ-1 in carcinogenesis has not been fully elucidated, however several recent studies disclosed its involvement in regulating fundamental pathways involved in cancer onset, development, and metastatization. At this purpose, we have dissected the role of DJ-1 in maintaining the transformed phenotype, survival, drug resistance, metastasis formation, and differentiation in cancer cells. Moreover, we have discussed the role of DJ-1 in controlling the redox status in cancer cells, along with the ability to attenuate reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent cell death, as well as to mediate ferropotosis. Finally, a mention to the development of therapeutic strategies targeting DJ-1 has been done. We have reported the most recent studies, aiming to shed light on the role played by DJ-1 in different cancer aspects and create the foundation for moving beyond the tip of the iceberg.

Abstract
DJ-1 is a multifunctional protein associated with pathomechanisms implicated in different chronic diseases including neurodegeneration, cancer and diabetes. Several of the physiological functions of DJ-1 are not yet fully understood; however, in the last years, there has been increasing evidence for a potential role of DJ-1 in the regulation of cellular metabolism. Here, we summarize the current knowledge on specific functions of DJ-1 relevant to cellular metabolism and their role in modulating metabolic pathways. Further, we illustrate pathophysiological implications of the metabolic effects of DJ-1 in the context of neurodegeneration in Parkinson´s disease.

Dicarbonyl derived post-translational modifications: chemistry bridging biology and aging-related disease. Essays Biochem 2020; 64:97-110.

Abstract
In living systems, nucleophilic amino acid residues are prone to non-enzymatic post-translational modification by electrophiles. α-Dicarbonyl compounds are a special type of electrophiles that can react irreversibly with lysine, arginine, and cysteine residues via complex mechanisms to form post-translational modifications known as advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Glyoxal, methylglyoxal, and 3-deoxyglucosone are the major endogenous dicarbonyls, with methylglyoxal being the most well-studied. There are several routes that lead to the formation of dicarbonyl compounds, most originating from glucose and glucose metabolism, such as the non-enzymatic decomposition of glycolytic intermediates and fructosyl amines. Although dicarbonyls are removed continuously mainly via the glyoxalase system, several conditions lead to an increase in dicarbonyl concentration and thereby AGE formation. AGEs have been implicated in diabetes and aging-related diseases, and for this reason the elucidation of their structure as well as protein targets is of great interest. Though the dicarbonyls and reactive protein side chains are of relatively simple nature, the structures of the adducts as well as their mechanism of formation are not that trivial. Furthermore, detection of sites of modification can be demanding and current best practices rely on either direct mass spectrometry or various methods of enrichment based on antibodies or click chemistry followed by mass spectrometry. Future research into the structure of these adducts and protein targets of dicarbonyl compounds may improve the understanding of how the mechanisms of diabetes and aging-related physiological damage occur.

Abstract
To fully enable the development of diagnostic tools and progressive pharmaceutical drugs, it is imperative to understand the molecular changes occurring before and during disease onset and progression. Systems biology assessments utilizing multi-omic analyses (e.g. the combination of proteomics, lipidomics, genomics, etc.) have shown enormous value in determining molecules prevalent in diseases and their associated mechanisms. Herein, we utilized multi-omic evaluations, multi-dimensional analysis methods, and new cheminformatics-based visualization tools to provide an in depth understanding of the molecular changes taking place in preeclampsia (PRE) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) patients. Since PRE and GDM are two prevalent pregnancy complications that result in adverse health effects for both the mother and fetus during pregnancy and later in life, a better understanding of each is essential. The multi-omic evaluations performed here provide new insight into the end-stage molecular profiles of each disease, thereby supplying information potentially crucial for earlier diagnosis and treatments.

Abstract
Multiple aspects of neuronal physiology crucially depend on two cellular pathways, autophagy and endocytosis. During endocytosis, extracellular components either unbound or recognized by membrane-localized receptors (termed "cargo") become internalized into plasma membrane-derived vesicles. These can serve to either recycle the material back to the plasma membrane or send it for degradation to lysosomes. Autophagy also uses lysosomes as a terminal degradation point, although instead of degrading the plasma membrane-derived cargo, autophagy eliminates detrimental cytosolic material and intracellular organelles, which are transported to lysosomes by means of double-membrane vesicles, referred to as autophagosomes. Neurons, like all non-neuronal cells, capitalize on autophagy and endocytosis to communicate with the environment and maintain protein and organelle homeostasis. Additionally, the highly polarized, post-mitotic nature of neurons made them adopt these two pathways for cell-specific functions. These include the maintenance of the synaptic vesicle pool in the pre-synaptic terminal and the long-distance transport of signaling molecules. Originally discovered independently from each other, it is now clear that autophagy and endocytosis are closely interconnected and share several common participating molecules. Considering the crucial role of autophagy and endocytosis in cell type-specific functions in neurons, it is not surprising that defects in both pathways have been linked to the pathology of numerous neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we highlight the recent knowledge of the role of endocytosis and autophagy in neurons with a special focus on synaptic physiology and discuss how impairments in genes coding for autophagy and endocytosis proteins can cause neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Glycation, the term for non-enzymatic covalent reactions between aldehyde metabolites and nucleophiles on biopolymers, results in deleterious cellular damage and diseases. Since Parkinsonism-associated protein DJ-1 was proposed as a novel deglycase that directly repairs glycated adducts, it has been considered a major contributor to glycation damage repair. Recently, an interesting debate over the mechanism of glycation repair by DJ-1 has emerged, focusing on whether the substrate of DJ-1 is glycated adducts or the free small aldehydes. The physiological significance of DJ-1 on glycation defense also remains in question. This debate is complicated by the fact that glycated biomolecular adducts are in rapid equilibrium with free aldehydes. Here, we summarize experimental evidence for the two possibilities, highlighting both consistencies and conflicts. We discuss the experimental complexities from a mechanistic perspective, and suggest classes of experiments that should help clarify this debate.

Abstract
DJ-1 is a highly conserved soluble protein that is associated to several cellular pathways. In humans, DJ-1 has been implicated in several pathologies such as cancer, Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Several roles have been attributed to DJ-1, including defense against oxidative stress, chaperone activity and proteasome regulation. The recent finding that DJ-1 acts as a protein and DNA deglycase further confirms the protective function of DJ-1 and suggests a common mechanism of action in the various pathways in which DJ-1 is involved. Cysteine 106, located in the putative active site of DJ-1, is critical for the biological activity of DJ-1 and is easily oxidized to cysteine-sulfinate. While such oxidation modulates DJ-1 activity, the underlying molecular mechanism has not yet been elucidated. Cysteine oxidation does not perturb the protein structure, therefore changes in protein dynamics in solution could modulate its function. Here, we report a revised and completed (98%) backbone assignment of reduced DJ-1, together with the backbone assignment of oxidized DJ-1. Chemical shift perturbation is observed in several regions across the sequence, while no changes in secondary structure are observed. These data will provide the starting point for further characterization of the changes in the backbone dynamics of DJ-1 upon oxidation in solution at physiological temperature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cigarette smoke is the main risk factor of pulmonary emphysema development, which is characterized by alveolar wall destruction. Mitochondria are important for alveolar type II (ATII) cell metabolism due to ATP generation. METHODS We isolated ATII cells from control non-smoker and smoker organ donors, and after lung transplant of patients with emphysema to determine mitochondrial function, dynamics and mitochondrial (mt) DNA damage. FINDINGS We found high mitochondrial superoxide generation and mtDNA damage in ATII cells in emphysema. This correlated with decreased mtDNA amount. We also detected high TOP1-cc and low TDP1 levels in mitochondria in ATII cells in emphysema. This contributed to the decreased resolution of TOP1-cc leading to accumulation of mtDNA damage and mitochondrial dysfunction. Moreover, we used lung tissue obtained from areas with mild and severe emphysema from the same patients. We found a correlation between the impaired fusion and fission as indicated by low MFN1, OPA1, FIS1, and p-DRP1 levels and this disease severity. We detected lower TDP1 expression in severe compared to mild emphysema. INTERPRETATION We found high DNA damage and impairment of DNA damage repair in mitochondria in ATII cells isolated from emphysema patients, which contribute to abnormal mitochondrial dynamics. Our findings provide molecular mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction in this disease.
