Transcriptome of bone marrow-Derived stem cells reveals new inflammatory mediators related to increased survival in patients with multiple myeloma. Cytokine 2024; 179:156613. [PMID: 38643632 DOI: 10.1016/j.cyto.2024.156613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024]
Abstract
Although multiple myeloma (MM) is a neoplasm that leads affected individuals to death, little is known about why some patients survive much longer than others. In this context, we investigated the transcriptomic profile of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells obtained from MM patients and compared the clinical outcomes of death and survival six months after bone marrow transplantation. The leukapheresis products of 39 patients with MM eligible for autologous transplantation were collected and analyzed. After extraction, the RNA was analyzed using the GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 Array method. The transcriptome profile was analyzed in silico, and the differentially expressed signaling pathways of interest were validated. The results showed a difference in the expression of inflammation-related genes, immune response processes, and the oxidative stress pathway. The in silico study also pointed out the involvement of the NFκB transcription factor in the possible modulation of these genes. We chose to validate molecules participating in these processes, including the cytokines TNF-α, IFN-γ, and TGF-β1; in addition, we measured the levels of oxidative stress mediators (pro-oxidant profile and the total antioxidant capacity). TNF-α levels were significantly reduced in patients who died and were over 50 years old at diagnosis, as well as in patients with plasmacytoma. Increased TNF-α was detected in patients with very high levels of β2-microglobulin. IFN-γ reduction was observed in patients with a complete response to treatment compared to those with a very good response. Patients with plasmacytoma who died also had an increased pro-oxidant profile. These data show the profile of inflammatory response markers that are altered in patients with MM who die quickly and serve as a basis for the development of future studies of markers to predict better survival in this disease.

Xie CY, Su RR, Wu B, Sun ZY, Tang YQ. Response mechanisms of different Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains to succinic acid. BMC Microbiol 2024; 24:158. [PMID: 38720268 PMCID: PMC11077785 DOI: 10.1186/s12866-024-03314-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The production of succinic acid (SA) from biomass has attracted worldwide interest. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is preferred for SA production due to its strong tolerance to low pH conditions, ease of genetic manipulation, and extensive application in industrial processes. However, when compared with bacterial producers, the SA titers and productivities achieved by engineered S. cerevisiae strains were relatively low. To develop efficient SA-producing strains, it's necessary to clearly understand how S. cerevisiae cells respond to SA. RESULTS In this study, we cultivated five S. cerevisiae strains with different genetic backgrounds under different concentrations of SA. Among them, KF7 and NBRC1958 demonstrated high tolerance to SA, whereas NBRC2018 displayed the least tolerance. Therefore, these three strains were chosen to study how S. cerevisiae responds to SA. Under a concentration of 20 g/L SA, only a few differentially expressed genes were observed in three strains. At the higher concentration of 60 g/L SA, the response mechanisms of the three strains diverged notably. For KF7, genes involved in the glyoxylate cycle were significantly downregulated, whereas genes involved in gluconeogenesis, the pentose phosphate pathway, protein folding, and meiosis were significantly upregulated. For NBRC1958, genes related to the biosynthesis of vitamin B6, thiamin, and purine were significantly downregulated, whereas genes related to protein folding, toxin efflux, and cell wall remodeling were significantly upregulated. For NBRC2018, there was a significant upregulation of genes connected to the pentose phosphate pathway, gluconeogenesis, fatty acid utilization, and protein folding, except for the small heat shock protein gene HSP26. Overexpression of HSP26 and HSP42 notably enhanced the cell growth of NBRC1958 both in the presence and absence of SA. CONCLUSIONS The inherent activities of small heat shock proteins, the levels of acetyl-CoA and the strains' potential capacity to consume SA all seem to affect the responses and tolerances of S. cerevisiae strains to SA. These factors should be taken into consideration when choosing host strains for SA production. This study provides a theoretical basis and identifies potential host strains for the development of robust and efficient SA-producing strains.

Abstract
In this work, evaluated the antifungal chemosensitizing effect of the Lippia origanoides essential oil (EO) through the induction of oxidative stress. The EO was obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS. To evaluate the antifungal chemosensitizing effect through induction of oxidative stress, cultures of the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae ∆ycf1 were exposed to sub-inhibitory concentrations of the EO, and the expression of genes known, due be overexpressed in response to oxidative and mutagenic stress was analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) method. Carvacrol and thymol were identified as the main components. The EO was effective in preventing or reducing the growth of the microorganisms tested. The gene expression profiles showed that EO promoted changes in the patterns of expression of genes involved in oxidative and mutagenic stress resistance. The combined use of the L. origanoides EO with fluconazole has been tested on Candida yeasts and the strategy resulted in a synergistic enhancement of the antifungal action of the azolic chemical product. Indeed, in association with EO, the fluconazole MICs dropped. Thus, the combinatorial use of L. origanoides EO as a chemosensitizer agent should contribute to enhancing the efficiency of conventional antifungal drugs, reducing their negative side effects.

Abstract
Hsp90s are ATP-dependent chaperones that collaborate with co-chaperones and Hsp70s to remodel client proteins. Grp94 is the ER Hsp90 homolog essential for folding multiple secretory and membrane proteins. Grp94 interacts with the ER Hsp70, BiP, although the collaboration of the ER chaperones in protein remodeling is not well understood. Grp94 undergoes large-scale conformational changes that are coupled to chaperone activity. Within Grp94, a region called the pre-N domain suppresses ATP hydrolysis and conformational transitions to the active chaperone conformation. In this work, we combined in vivo and in vitro functional assays and structural studies to characterize the chaperone mechanism of Grp94. We show that Grp94 directly collaborates with the BiP chaperone system to fold clients. Grp94's pre-N domain is not necessary for Grp94-client interactions. The folding of some Grp94 clients does not require direct interactions between Grp94 and BiP in vivo, suggesting that the canonical collaboration may not be a general chaperone mechanism for Grp94. The BiP co-chaperone DnaJB11 promotes the interaction between Grp94 and BiP, relieving the pre-N domain suppression of Grp94's ATP hydrolysis activity. In structural studies, we find that ATP binding by Grp94 alters the ATP lid conformation, while BiP binding stabilizes a partially closed Grp94 intermediate. Together, BiP and ATP push Grp94 into the active closed conformation for client folding. We also find that nucleotide binding reduces Grp94's affinity for clients, which is important for productive client folding. Alteration of client affinity by nucleotide binding may be a conserved chaperone mechanism for a subset of ER chaperones.

Abstract
Nicotine, a naturally occurring tobacco alkaloid responsible for tobacco addiction, has long been considered non-carcinogenic. However, emerging evidence suggests that nicotine may possess carcinogenic properties in mice and could be a potential carcinogen in humans. This review aims to summarize the potential molecular mechanisms underlying nicotine-induced carcinogenesis, with a specific focus on epigenetic regulation and the activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in addition to genotoxicity and excess reactive oxygen species (ROS). Additionally, we explore a novel hypothesis regarding nicotine's carcinogenicity involving the downregulation of stem-loop binding protein (SLBP), a critical regulator of canonical histone mRNA, and the polyadenylation of canonical histone mRNA. By shedding light on these mechanisms, this review underscores the need for further research to elucidate the carcinogenic potential of nicotine and its implications for human health.

Abstract
Under physiologic conditions, reactive oxygen species (ROS) function as signalling molecules that control cell function. However, in pathologic conditions, increased generation of ROS triggers oxidative stress, which plays a role in vascular changes associated with hypertension, including endothelial dysfunction, vascular reactivity, and arterial remodelling (termed the vasculopathy of hypertension). The major source of ROS in the vascular system is NADPH oxidase (NOX). Increased NOX activity drives vascular oxidative stress in hypertension. Molecular mechanisms underlying vascular damage in hypertension include activation of redox-sensitive signalling pathways, post-translational modification of proteins, and oxidative damage of DNA and cytoplasmic proteins. In addition, oxidative stress leads to accumulation of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (termed ER stress), with consequent activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). ER stress is emerging as a potential player in hypertension as abnormal protein folding in the ER leads to oxidative stress and dysregulated activation of the UPR promotes inflammation and injury in vascular and cardiac cells. In addition, the ER engages in crosstalk with exogenous sources of ROS, such as mitochondria and NOX, which can amplify redox processes. Here we provide an update of the role of ROS and NOX in hypertension and discuss novel concepts on the interplay between oxidative stress and ER stress.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health concern, particularly in adolescents who have a higher mortality and incidence of visual pathway injury compared to adult patients. Likewise, we have found disparities between adult and adolescent TBI outcomes in rodents. Most interestingly, adolescents suffer a prolonged apneic period immediately post-injury, leading to higher mortality; therefore, we implemented a brief oxygen exposure paradigm to circumvent this increased mortality. Adolescent male mice experienced a closed-head weight-drop TBI and were then exposed to 100% O2 until normal breathing returned or recovered in room air. We followed mice for 7 and 30 days and assessed their optokinetic response; retinal ganglion cell loss; axonal degeneration; glial reactivity; and retinal ER stress protein levels. O2 reduced adolescent mortality by 40%, improved post-injury visual acuity, and reduced axonal degeneration and gliosis in optical projection regions. ER stress protein expression was altered in injured mice, and mice given O2 utilized different ER stress pathways in a time-dependent manner. Finally, O2 exposure may be mediating these ER stress responses through regulation of the redox-sensitive ER folding protein ERO1α, which has been linked to a reduction in the toxic effects of free radicals in other animal models of ER stress.

Abstract
Proteostasis and redox homeostasis are tightly interconnected and most protein quality control pathways are under direct redox regulation which allow cells to immediately respond to oxidative stress conditions. The activation of ATP-independent chaperones serves as a first line of defense to counteract oxidative unfolding and aggregation of proteins. Conserved cysteine residues evolved as redox-sensitive switches which upon reversible oxidation induce substantial conformational rearrangements and the formation of chaperone-active complexes. In addition to harnessing unfolding proteins, these chaperone holdases interact with ATP-dependent chaperone systems to facilitate client refolding and restoring proteostasis during stress recovery. This minireview gives an insight into highly orchestrated mechanisms regulating the stress-specific activation and inactivation of redox-regulated chaperones and their role in cell stress responses.

Abstract
Glutathionylation of human stress-inducible Hsp70 (hHsp70) under oxidative stress conditions has been suggested to act as an on/off switch of hHsp70 chaperone activity and thus transfer redox signals to hHsp70 clients through a change in conformation. The mechanism of this switch involves unfolding of the C-terminal α-helical lid, SBDα, upon glutathionylation, which then binds to and blocks the hHsp70 substrate-binding site. This process is reversible and redox-regulated and has been demonstrated for purified protein in solution. Here, we found that this redox-regulated reversible process also occurs in the cellular environment. Using Escherichia coli as a model system, in-cell NMR data clearly indicate that hHsp70 SBDα undergoes a conformational transition from ordered to disordered after diamide stimulation. The disordered SBDα could spontaneously recover back to the helix bundle conformation over time. This oxidative-stress induced process also occurred in cell lysate, with a similar unfolding rate as in cells, but the refolding rate was significantly slower in cell lysate. Increased temperature accelerates this process. Under heat stress alone, unfolding of the SBDα could not be detected in cells. Our in-cell NMR results provide direct support for the molecular switch model of hHsp70 redox regulation and also demonstrate the power of in-cell NMR for real-time study of protein structures during biological processes in living cells.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays an important role in the regulation of protein synthesis. Alterations in the folding capacity of the ER induce stress, which activates three ER sensors that mediate the unfolded protein response (UPR). Components of the pathways regulated by these sensors have been shown to regulate autophagy. The last corresponds to a mechanism of self-eating and recycling important for proper cell maintenance. Ultraviolet radiation (UV) is an external damaging stimulus that is known for inducing oxidative stress, and DNA, lipid and protein damage. Many controversies exist regarding the role of UV-inducing ER stress or autophagy. However, a connection between the three of them has not been addressed. In this review, we will discuss the contradictory theories regarding the relationships between UV radiation with the induction of ER stress and autophagy, as well as hypothetic connections between UV, ER stress and autophagy.

Abstract
Oxidative protein folding describes the process by which disulfide-bond-containing proteins mature from their ribosomal, fully reduced and unfolded, origins. Over the past 40 years, a number of exemplar proteins including bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNaseA), bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI), and hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL), among others, have provided rich insight into the nature of the intermolecular interactions that drive the formation of the native, biologically active fold. In this Review Article, we revisit the oxidative folding process of RNase A with a focus on reconciling the role of non-native disulfide-bond-containing species that populate the oxidative folding landscape. Toward gaining such an understanding, we project the regeneration pathway onto a Cartesian coordinate system. This helps not only to recognize the magnitude of the seemingly "fruitless", non-native disulfide-bond-containing species that lie orthogonal to the "native-protein-forming" reaction progress but also to reconcile a role for their existence in the regenerative trajectory. Finally, we superimpose the folding funnel onto the regeneration trajectory to draw parallels between oxidative folders and conformational folders (proteins that lack disulfide bonds). The overall objective is to provide the reader with a semi-quantitative description of oxidative protein folding and the barriers to successful regeneration while underscoring a role of seemingly fruitless intermediates.

Abstract
Hsp70s are multifunctional proteins and serve as the central hub of the protein quality control network. Hsp70s are also related to a number of diseases and have been established as drug targets. Human HspA1A (hHsp70) and HspA8 (hHsc70) are the major cytosolic Hsp70s, and they have both overlapping and distinct functions. hHsp70 contains five cysteine residues, and hHsc70 contains four cysteine residues. Previous studies have shown these cysteine residues can undergo different cysteine modifications such as oxidation or reaction with electrophiles to regulate their function, and hHsp70 and hHsc70 have different cysteine reactivity. To address the mechanism of the differences in cysteine reactivity between hHsp70 and hHsc70, we studied the factors that determine this reactivity by Ellman assay for the quantification of accessible free thiols and NMR analysis for the assessment of structural dynamics. We found the lower cysteine reactivity of hHsc70 is probably due to its lower structural dynamics and the stronger inhibition effect of interaction between the α-helical lid subdomain of the substrate-binding domain (SBDα) and the β-sheet substrate-binding subdomain (SBDβ) on cysteine reactivity of hHsc70. We determined that Gly557 in hHsp70 contributes significantly to the higher structural dynamics and cysteine reactivity of hHsp70 SBDα. Exploring the cysteine reactivity of hHsp70 and hHsc70 facilitates an understanding of the effects of redox reactions and electrophiles on their chaperone activity and regulation mechanisms, and how these differences allow them to undertake distinct cellular roles.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s diseases affect millions of Americans every year. One factor linked to the formation of aggregates associated with these diseases is damage sustained to proteins by oxidative stress. Management of protein misfolding by the ubiquitous Hsp70 chaperone family can be modulated by modification of two key cysteines in the ATPase domain by oxidizing or thiol-modifying compounds. To investigate the biological consequences of cysteine modification on the Hsp70 Ssa1 in budding yeast, we generated cysteine null (cysteine to serine) and oxidomimetic (cysteine to aspartic acid) mutant variants of both C264 and C303 and demonstrate reduced ATP binding, hydrolysis, and protein folding properties in both the oxidomimetic and hydrogen peroxide–treated Ssa1. In contrast, cysteine nullification rendered Ssa1 insensitive to oxidative inhibition. Additionally, we determined the oxidomimetic ssa1-2CD (C264D, C303D) allele was unable to function as the sole Ssa1 isoform in yeast cells and also exhibited dominant negative effects on cell growth and viability. Ssa1 binds to and represses Hsf1, the major transcription factor controlling the heat shock response, and we found the oxidomimetic Ssa1 failed to stably interact with Hsf1, resulting in constitutive activation of the heat shock response. Consistent with our in vitro findings, ssa1-2CD cells were compromised for de novo folding, post-stress protein refolding, and in regulated degradation of a model terminally misfolded protein. Together, these findings pinpoint Hsp70 as a key link between oxidative stress and proteostasis, information critical to understanding cytoprotective systems that prevent and manage cellular insults underlying complex disease states.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) houses sensors that respond to environmental stress and underly plants' adaptative responses. These sensors transduce signals that lead to changes in nuclear gene expression. The ER to nuclear signaling pathways are primarily attributed to the unfolded protein response (UPR) and are also integrated with a wide range of development, hormone, immune, and stress signaling pathways. Understanding the role of the UPR in signaling network mechanisms that associate with particular phenotypes is crucially important. While UPR-associated genes are the subject of ongoing investigations in a few model plant systems, most remain poorly annotated, hindering the identification of candidates across plant species. This open-source curated database provides a centralized resource of peer reviewed knowledge of ER to nuclear signaling pathways for the plant community. We provide a UPRome interactive viewer for users to navigate through the pathways and to access annotated information. The plant ER UPRome website is located at http://uprome.tamu.edu. We welcome contributions from the researchers studying the ER UPR to incorporate additional genes into the database through the "contact us" page.

Abstract
Fungal response to any stress is intricate, specific, and multilayered, though it employs only a few evolutionarily conserved regulators. This comes with the assumption that one regulator operates more than one stress-specific response. Although the assumption holds true, the current understanding of molecular mechanisms that drive response specificity and adequacy remains rudimentary. Deciphering the response of fungi to oxidative stress may help fill those knowledge gaps since it is one of the most encountered stress types in any kind of fungal niche. Data have been accumulating on the roles of the HOG pathway and Yap1- and Skn7-related pathways in mounting distinct and robust responses in fungi upon exposure to oxidative stress. Herein, we review recent and most relevant studies reporting the contribution of each of these pathways in response to oxidative stress in pathogenic and opportunistic fungi after giving a paralleled overview in two divergent models, the budding and fission yeasts. With the concept of stress-specific response and the importance of reactive oxygen species in fungal development, we first present a preface on the expanding domain of redox biology and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Limb muscle dysfunction is a hallmark of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) which is further worsened following a viral-induced acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD). An amplified airway inflammation underlies the aggravated respiratory symptoms seen during AECOPD, however, its contributory role to limb muscle dysfunction is unclear. The present study examined the impact of influenza A virus (IAV)-induced exacerbation on hind limb muscle parameters. Airway inflammation was established in male BALB/c mice by exposure to cigarette smoke (CS) for 8 weeks. Exacerbation was then induced via inoculation with IAV, and various lung and muscle parameters were assessed on day 3 (peak of airway inflammation) and day 10 (resolution phase) post-infection. IAV infection exacerbated CS-induced airway inflammation as evidenced by further increases in immune cell counts within bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Despite no significant impact on muscle mass, IAV exacerbation worsened the force-generating capacity of the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle. Protein oxidation and myogenic disruption was observed in the TA following CS exposure, however, IAV exacerbation did not augment these detrimental processes. To further explore the contributory role of airway inflammation on myogenic signaling, cultured myotubes were exposed to conditioned medium (CM) derived from bronchial epithelial cells stimulated with polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid and cigarette smoke extract (CSE). Despite an amplified inflammatory response in the lung epithelial cells, the CM derived from these cells did not potentiate myogenic disruption in the C2C12 myotubes. In conclusion, our data suggest that certain parameters of limb muscle dysfunction seen during viral-induced AECOPD may be independent of airway inflammation.

Abstract
Cellular redox homeostasis is precisely balanced by generation and elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS are not only capable of causing oxidation of proteins, lipids and DNA to damage cells but can also act as signaling molecules to modulate transcription factors and epigenetic pathways that determine cell survival and death. Hsp70 proteins are central hubs for proteostasis and are important factors to ameliorate damage from different kinds of stress including oxidative stress. Hsp70 members often participate in different cellular signaling pathways via their clients and cochaperones. ROS can directly cause oxidative cysteine modifications of Hsp70 members to alter their structure and chaperone activity, resulting in changes in the interactions between Hsp70 and their clients or cochaperones, which can then transfer redox signals to Hsp70-related signaling pathways. On the other hand, ROS also activate some redox-related signaling pathways to indirectly modulate Hsp70 activity and expression. Post-translational modifications including phosphorylation together with elevated Hsp70 expression can expand the capacity of Hsp70 to deal with ROS-damaged proteins and support antioxidant enzymes. Knowledge about the response and role of Hsp70 in redox homeostasis will facilitate our understanding of the cellular knock-on effects of inhibitors targeting Hsp70 and the mechanisms of redox-related diseases and aging.

Abstract
Decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) is one of the most commonly used novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs), and its mass production and widespread application have caused health threats to the human being. Existing studies have shown that DBDPE has hepatotoxicity. And we have found that DBDPE could change cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) expression levels in rat livers, whereas the mechanism is unclear. In this study, we exposed human normal hepatocyte (L-02) to DBDPE to further study the effect and mechanism of DBDPE on hepatocellular injury and liver metabolic enzyme CYP3A changes in vitro. The results showed that DBDPE caused L-02 cell viability decrease, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and transaminase release, ultrastructural damage, and apoptosis. Moreover, DBDPE exposure induced oxidative stress (i.e., increased ROS generation and MDA levels and decreased GSH content, SOD activity, and mitochondrial membrane potential) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in L-02 cells as evidenced by the elevated PERK and IRE-1α expression levels. These results confirmed that DBDPE is toxic to hepatocytes. Besides, the CYP3A expression level was decreased in DBDPE exposed L-02 cells. However, pretreatment of L-02 cells with antioxidant N-Acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) and endoplasmic reticulum stress inhibitor 4-PBA inhibited DBDPE-induced oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress, CYP3A expression decrease, and apoptosis. Therefore, we demonstrated that DBDPE could exert toxic effects and decrease CYP3A expression on L-02 cells by inducing ER stress and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Background Recently, extracellular vesicles have come to the fore following their emerging role in cell communication, thanks to their ability to reach cells into the human body without dissipating their cargo, transferring biological active molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, etc. They appear as a promising tool in medicine, because of their capability to modulate cellular response in recipient cells. Moreover, a considerable number of publications suggests that exosome uptake is selective but not specific, and it can cross species and cell-type boundaries. This study aims to explore the potential role of porcine liver derived extracellular vesicles, exosomes in particular, to protect human cells from acute damage induced by acetaminophen. Methods Extracellular vesicles were isolated from porcine lyophilized liver using polymer-based precipitation and a further enrichment was performed using affinity beads. The effects of obtained fractions, total extracellular vesicles and enriched extracellular vesicles, were assessed on human liver derived HepG2 cells. Cell growth and survival were tested, with MTT and area coverage analysis designed by us, as well as protein expression, with immunofluorescence and Western blot. Oxidative stress in live cells was also measured with fluorogenic probes. Results After proving that porcine extracellular vesicles did not have a toxic effect on HepG2, quite the contrary total extracellular vesicle fraction improved cell growth, we investigated their protective capability with a preconditioning strategy in APAP-induced damage. EVs displayed not only the ability to strongly modulate cell survival responses, but they also were able to boost cell cycle progression. Conclusions Extracellular vesicles derived from farm animal food derivatives are able to modulate human hepatic cell metabolism, also improving cell survival in a damaged context.

Abstract
As one of the largest organelles in eukaryotic cells, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a vital role in the synthesis, folding, and assembly of secretory and membrane proteins. To maintain its homeostasis, the ER is equipped with an elaborate network of protein folding chaperones and multiple quality control pathways whose cooperative actions safeguard the fidelity of protein biogenesis. However, due to genetic abnormalities, the error-prone nature of protein folding and assembly, and/or defects or limited capacities of the protein quality control systems, nascent proteins may become misfolded and fail to exit the ER. If not cleared efficiently, the progressive accumulation of misfolded proteins within the ER may result in the formation of toxic protein aggregates, leading to the so-called “ER storage diseases”. In this review, we first summarize our current understanding of the protein folding and quality control networks in the ER, including chaperones, unfolded protein response (UPR), ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD), and ER-selective autophagy (ER-phagy). We then survey recent research progress on a few ER storage diseases, with a focus on the role of ER quality control in the disease etiology, followed by a discussion on outstanding questions and emerging concepts in the field.

Abstract
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is gradually becoming a major public healthcare burden worldwide. Post-translational modifications carrying epigenetic information play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of many chronic diseases. We performed lysine crotonylation (KCr) and lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib) analyses with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to obtain a comprehensive profile and reveal the specific pathogenesis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in ESRD patients. 218 overlap proteins among differentially modified proteins (DMPs) of both 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation and crotonylation were identified. KEGG analysis enriched pathways of protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis which is closely related with cell apoptosis. In Bip, a master regulator in the ER, eight sites were identified as having both KCr and Khib modifications. Five differentially KCr modification sites and three differentially Khib-modified sites were detected between ESRD patients and normal controls. Besides Bip, other proteins (GRP94, CNX, CRT, PDIs, GlcII, ERP57, Bap31, Hsp70, and Hsp90) happened both KCr and Khib modifications. Nine DMPs having both KCr and Khib modifications were related to the glycolysis/gluconeogenesis pathway containing two key regulatory enzymes of hexokinase-1 and pyruvate kinase. The two most abundant dual modification proteins were ENO1 and PGK1 with 15 sites and 8 sites, respectively. Lysine residue K228 with both KCr and Khib modifications in ENO1 was on its surface and made it accessible for p300 mediating dynamic modifications. Overall, we hypothesize that KCr and Khib comodifications may influence the number of immunocytes and further induce immune senescence in ESRD patients through the glycolysis/gluconeogenesis pathway and protein processing in the ER process, which may be a potential therapeutic direction in the future.

Abstract
Aberrant redox-sensitive reactions and accumulation of oxidative damage can impair body functions and contribute to the development of various pathologies and aging. Although antioxidant substances have long been recognized as a measure of alleviating oxidative stress and restoring redox balance, the arsenal of effective means of preventing the development of various disorders, is still limited. There is an emerging field that utilizes molecular hydrogen (H2) as a scavenger of free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Among the remarkable characteristics of H2 is its ability to counteract the harmful effects of hydroxyl radical and peroxynitrite without affecting the activity of functionally important ROS, such as hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide. The beneficial effects of H2 have been documented in numerous clinical studies and studies on animal models and cell cultures. However, the established scavenging activity of H2 can only partially explain its beneficial effects because the effects are achieved at very low concentrations of H2. Given the rate of H2 diffusion, such low concentrations may not be sufficient to scavenge continuously generated ROS. H2 can also act as a signaling molecule and induce defense responses. However, the exact targets and mechanism(s) by which H2 exerts these effects are unknown. Here, we analyzed both positive and negative effects of the endogenous H2, identified the redox-sensitive components of the pathways affected by molecular hydrogen, and also discussed the potential role of molecular hydrogen in regulating cellular redox.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) maintains within, an oxidative redox state suitable for disulfide bond formation. We monitored the ER redox dynamics subsequent to proteasome inhibition using an ER redox probe ERroGFP S4. Proteasomal inhibition initially led to oxidation of the ER, but gradually the normal redox state was recovered that further led to a reductive state. These events were found to be concomitant with the increase in the both oxidized and reduced glutathione in the microsomal fraction, with a decrease of total intracellular glutathione. The ER reduction was suppressed by pretreatment of a glutathione synthesis inhibitor or by knockdown of ATF4, which induces glutathione-related genes. These results suggested cellular adaptation of ER redox homeostasis: (1) inhibition of proteasome led to accumulation of misfolded proteins and oxidative state in the ER, and (2) the oxidative ER was then reduced by ATF4 activation, followed by influx of glutathione into the ER.

Abstract
Under physiological and pathological conditions, cells activate the unfolded protein response (UPR) to deal with the accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy arising from immunoglobulin-secreting plasma cells. MM cells are subject to continual ER stress and highly dependent on the UPR signaling activation due to overproduction of paraproteins. Mounting evidence suggests the close linkage between ER stress and oxidative stress, demonstrated by overlapping signaling pathways and inter-organelle communication pivotal to cell fate decision. Imbalance of intracellular homeostasis can lead to deranged control of cellular functions and engage apoptosis due to mutual activation between ER stress and reactive oxygen species generation through a self-perpetuating cycle. Here, we present accumulating evidence showing the interactive roles of redox homeostasis and proteostasis in MM pathogenesis and drug resistance, which would be helpful in elucidating the still underdefined molecular pathways linking ER stress and oxidative stress in MM. Lastly, we highlight future research directions in the development of anti-myeloma therapy, focusing particularly on targeting redox signaling and ER stress responses.

Abstract
Cell surface and secreted proteins provide essential functions for multicellular life. They enter the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen co-translationally, where they mature and fold into their complex three-dimensional structures. The ER is populated with a host of molecular chaperones, associated co-factors, and enzymes that assist and stabilize folded states. Together, they ensure that nascent proteins mature properly or, if this process fails, target them for degradation. BiP, the ER HSP70 chaperone, interacts with unfolded client proteins in a nucleotide-dependent manner, which is tightly regulated by eight DnaJ-type proteins and two nucleotide exchange factors (NEFs), SIL1 and GRP170. Loss of SIL1′s function is the leading cause of Marinesco-Sjögren syndrome (MSS), an autosomal recessive, multisystem disorder. The development of animal models has provided insights into SIL1′s functions and MSS-associated pathologies. This review provides an in-depth update on the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying SIL1′s NEF activity and its role in maintaining ER homeostasis and normal physiology. A precise understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms associated with the loss of SIL1 may allow for the development of new pharmacological approaches to treat MSS.

Abstract
The lungs are exposed to a range of environmental toxins (including cigarette smoke, air pollution, asbestos) and pathogens (bacterial, viral and fungal), and most respiratory diseases are associated with local or systemic hypoxia. All of these adverse factors can trigger endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The ER is a key intracellular site for synthesis of secretory and membrane proteins, regulating their folding, assembly into complexes, transport and degradation. Accumulation of misfolded proteins within the lumen results in ER stress, which activates the unfolded protein response (UPR). Effectors of the UPR temporarily reduce protein synthesis, while enhancing degradation of misfolded proteins and increasing the folding capacity of the ER. If successful, homeostasis is restored and protein synthesis resumes, but if ER stress persists, cell death pathways are activated. ER stress and the resulting UPR occur in a range of pulmonary insults and the outcome plays an important role in many respiratory diseases. The UPR is triggered in the airway of patients with several respiratory diseases and in corresponding experimental models. ER stress has been implicated in the initiation and progression of pulmonary fibrosis, and evidence is accumulating suggesting that ER stress occurs in obstructive lung diseases (particularly in asthma), in pulmonary infections (some viral infections and in the setting of the cystic fibrosis airway) and in lung cancer. While a number of small molecule inhibitors have been used to interrogate the role of the UPR in disease models, many of these tools have complex and off-target effects, hence additional evidence (eg, from genetic manipulation) may be required to support conclusions based on the impact of such pharmacological agents. Aberrant activation of the UPR may be linked to disease pathogenesis and progression, but at present, our understanding of the context-specific and disease-specific mechanisms linking these processes is incomplete. Despite this, the ability of the UPR to defend against ER stress and influence a range of respiratory diseases is becoming increasingly evident, and the UPR is therefore attracting attention as a prospective target for therapeutic intervention strategies.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) cells have high rates of secretion of proteins rich in disulfide bonds and depend upon compartmentalized redox balance for accurate protein folding. The proteasome inhibitor bortezomib (Btz) is a successful frontline treatment for the disease, but its long-term efficacy is restricted by the acquisition of resistance. We found that MM cell lines resistant to Btz maintain high levels of oxidative stress and are cross resistant to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-inducing agents thapsigargin (ThG), and tunicamycin (TuM). Moreover, cells expressing high/wild type levels of glutathione S-transferase P (GSTP) are more resistant than Gstp1/p2 knockout cells. In agreement, basal levels of S-glutathionylated proteins and redox regulation enzymes, including GSTP are elevated at mRNA and protein levels in resistant cells. GSTP mediated S-glutathionylation (SSG) regulates the activities of a number of redox active ER proteins. Here we demonstrated that the post-translational modification determines the balance between foldase and ATPase activities of the binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP), with Cys41-SSG important for ATPase, and Cys420-SSG for foldase. BiP expression and S-glutathionylation are increased in clinical specimens of bone marrow from MM patients compared to non-cancerous samples. Preventing S-glutathionylation in MM cells with a GSTP specific inhibitor restored BiP activities and reversed resistance to Btz. Therefore, S-glutathionylation of BiP confers pro-survival advantages and represents a novel mechanism of drug resistance in MM cells. We conclude that altered GSTP expression leads to S-glutathionylation of BiP, and contributes to acquired resistance to Btz in MM.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays an important role in cellular processes. Consequently, oxidative stress also affects etiology, progression, and response to therapeutics in various pathological conditions including malignant tumors. Oxidative stress and associated outcomes are often brought about by excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Accumulation of ROS occurs due to dysregulation of homeostasis in an otherwise strictly controlled physiological condition. In fact, intracellular ROS levels are closely associated with the pathological status and outcome of numerous diseases. Notably, mitochondria are recognized as the critical regulator and primary source of ROS. Damage to mitochondria increases mitochondrial ROS (mROS) production, which leads to an increased level of total intracellular ROS. However, intracellular ROS level may not always reflect mROS levels, as ROS is not only produced by mitochondria but also by other organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum and peroxisomes. Thus, an evaluation of mROS would help us to recognize the biological and pathological characteristics and predictive markers of malignant tumors and develop efficient treatment strategies. In this review, we describe the pathological significance of mROS in malignant neoplasms. In particular, we show the association of mROS-related signaling in the molecular mechanisms of chemically synthesized and natural chemotherapeutic agents and photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has emerged as a source of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and a hub for peroxide-based signaling events. Here we outline cellular sources of ER-localized peroxide, including sources within and near the ER. Focusing on three ER-localized proteins-the molecular chaperone BiP, the transmembrane stress-sensor IRE1, and the calcium pump SERCA2-we discuss how post-translational modification of protein cysteines by H2O2 can alter ER activities. We review how changed activities for these three proteins upon oxidation can modulate signaling events, and also how cysteine oxidation can serve to limit the cellular damage that is most often associated with elevated peroxide levels.

Abstract
Thiol-based redox switches evolved as efficient post-translational regulatory mechanisms that enable individual proteins to rapidly respond to sudden environmental changes. While some protein functions need to be switched off to save resources and avoid potentially error-prone processes, protective functions become essential and need to be switched on. In this review, we focus on thiol-based activation mechanisms of stress-sensing chaperones. Upon stress exposure, these chaperones convert into high affinity binding platforms for unfolding proteins and protect cells against the accumulation of potentially toxic protein aggregates. Their chaperone activity is independent of ATP, a feature that becomes especially important under oxidative stress conditions, where cellular ATP levels drop and canonical ATP-dependent chaperones no longer operate. Vice versa, reductive inactivation and substrate release require the restoration of ATP levels, which ensures refolding of client proteins by ATP-dependent foldases. We will give an overview over the different strategies that cells evolved to rapidly increase the pool of ATP-independent chaperones upon oxidative stress and provide mechanistic insights into how stress conditions are used to convert abundant cellular proteins into ATP-independent holding chaperones.

Abstract
In this review, we discuss the connections between mitochondria and the gut microbiome provided by reactive oxygen species (ROS). We examine the mitochondrion as an endosymbiotic organelle that is a hub for energy production, signaling, and cell homeostasis. Maintaining a diverse gut microbiome is generally associated with organismal fitness, intestinal health and resistance to environmental stress. In contrast, gut microbiome imbalance, termed dysbiosis, is linked to a reduction in organismal well-being. ROS are essential signaling molecules but can be damaging when present in excess. Increasing ROS levels have been shown to influence human health, homeostasis of gut cells, and the gastrointestinal microbial community's biodiversity. Reciprocally, gut microbes can affect ROS levels, mitochondrial homeostasis, and host health. We propose that mechanistic understanding of the suite of bi-directional interactions between mitochondria and the gut microbiome will facilitate innovative interdisciplinary studies examining evolutionary divergence and provide novel treatments and therapeutics for disease. GLOSS: In this review, we focus on the nexus between mitochondria and the gut microbiome provided by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Mitochondria are a cell organelle that is derived from an ancestral alpha-proteobacteria. They generate around 80% of the adenosine triphosphate that an organism needs to function and release a range of signaling molecules essential for cellular homeostasis. The gut microbiome is a suite of microorganisms that are commensal, symbiotic and pathogenic to their host. ROS are one predominant group of essential signaling molecules that can be harmful in excess. We suggest that the mitochondria- microbiome nexus is a frontier of research that has cross-disciplinary benefits in understanding genetic divergence and human well-being.

Abstract
Cells must be able to cope with the challenge of folding newly synthesized proteins and refolding those that have become misfolded in the context of a crowded cytosol. One such coping mechanism that has appeared during evolution is the expression of well-conserved molecular chaperones, such as those that are part of the heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) family of proteins that bind and fold a large proportion of the proteome. Although Hsp70 family chaperones have been extensively examined for the last 50 years, most studies have focused on regulation of Hsp70 activities by altered transcription, co-chaperone "helper" proteins, and ATP binding and hydrolysis. The rise of modern proteomics has uncovered a vast array of post-translational modifications (PTMs) on Hsp70 family proteins that include phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, AMPylation, and ADP-ribosylation. Similarly to the pattern of histone modifications, the histone code, this complex pattern of chaperone PTMs is now known as the "chaperone code." In this review, we discuss the history of the Hsp70 chaperone code, its currently understood regulation and functions, and thoughts on what the future of research into the chaperone code may entail.

Abstract
Many metabolic diseases disrupt endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis, but little is known about how metabolic activity is communicated to the ER. Here, we show in hepatocytes and other metabolically active cells that decreasing the availability of substrate for the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle diminished NADPH production, elevated glutathione oxidation, led to altered oxidative maturation of ER client proteins, and attenuated ER stress. This attenuation was prevented when glutathione oxidation was disfavored. ER stress was also alleviated by inhibiting either TCA-dependent NADPH production or Glutathione Reductase. Conversely, stimulating TCA activity increased NADPH production, glutathione reduction, and ER stress. Validating these findings, deletion of the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier-which is known to decrease TCA cycle activity and protect the liver from steatohepatitis-also diminished NADPH, elevated glutathione oxidation, and alleviated ER stress. Together, our results demonstrate a novel pathway by which mitochondrial metabolic activity is communicated to the ER through the relay of redox metabolites.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) proteins are a family of ancient and conserved chaperones. Cysteine modifications have been widely detected among different Hsp70 family members in vivo, but their effects on Hsp70 structure and function are unclear. Here, we treated HeLa cells with diamide, which typically induces disulfide bond formation except in the presence of excess GSH, when glutathionylated cysteines predominate. We show that in these cells, HspA1A (hHsp70) undergoes reversible cysteine modifications, including glutathionylation, potentially at all five cysteine residues. In vitro experiments revealed that modification of cysteines in the nucleotide-binding domain of hHsp70 is prevented by nucleotide binding but that Cys-574 and Cys-603, located in the C-terminal α-helical lid of the substrate-binding domain, can undergo glutathionylation in both the presence and absence of nucleotide. We found that glutathionylation of these cysteine residues results in unfolding of the α-helical lid structure. The unfolded region mimics substrate by binding to and blocking the substrate-binding site, thereby promoting intrinsic ATPase activity and competing with binding of external substrates, including heat shock transcription factor 1 (Hsf1). Thus, post-translational modification can alter the structure and regulate the function of hHsp70.

Abstract
Significance: Over the past several years, oxidative post-translational modifications of protein cysteines have been recognized for their critical roles in physiology and pathophysiology. Cells have harnessed thiol modifications involving both oxidative and reductive steps for signaling and protein processing. One of these stages requires oxidation of cysteine to sulfenic acid, followed by two reduction reactions. First, glutathione (reduced glutathione [GSH]) forms a S-glutathionylated protein, and second, enzymatic or chemical reduction removes the modification. Under physiological conditions, these steps confer redox signaling and protect cysteines from irreversible oxidation. However, oxidative stress can overwhelm protein S-glutathionylation and irreversibly modify cysteine residues, disrupting redox signaling. Critical Issues: Glutaredoxins mainly catalyze the removal of protein-bound GSH and help maintain protein thiols in a highly reduced state without exerting direct antioxidant properties. Conversely, glutathione S-transferase (GST), peroxiredoxins, and occasionally glutaredoxins can also catalyze protein S-glutathionylation, thus promoting a dynamic redox environment. Recent Advances: The latest studies of glutaredoxin-1 (Glrx) transgenic or knockout mice demonstrate important distinct roles of Glrx in a variety of pathologies. Endogenous Glrx is essential to maintain normal hepatic lipid homeostasis and prevent fatty liver disease. Further, in vivo deletion of Glrx protects lungs from inflammation and bacterial pneumonia-induced damage, attenuates angiotensin II-induced cardiovascular hypertrophy, and improves ischemic limb vascularization. Meanwhile, exogenous Glrx administration can reverse pathological lung fibrosis. Future Directions: Although S-glutathionylation modifies many proteins, these studies suggest that S-glutathionylation and Glrx regulate specific pathways in vivo, and they implicate Glrx as a potential novel therapeutic target to treat diverse disease conditions.

Abstract
AKT/PKB is downregulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS), which plays a key role in cell survival and tumor progression in various types of cancer. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between the sequential ubiquitination of lysine residues K284 to K214 in AKT and R-HSPA5 (the arginylated form of HSPA5), which contribute to the autophagic/lysosomal degradation of AKT when impaired proteasomal activity induces cellular stress. Results show that proteasome inhibitors (PIs) increased ATE1 (arginyltransferase 1)-mediated R-HSPA5 levels in a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent manner. Further, binding of fully ubiquitinated AKT with R-HSPA5 induced AKT degradation via the autophagy-lysosome pathway. Specifically, the K48 (Lys48)-linked ubiquitinated form of AKT was selectively degraded in the lysosome with R-HSPA5. The deubiquitinase, USP7 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 7), prevented AKT degradation by inhibiting AKT ubiquitination via interaction with AKT. MUL1 (mitochondrial ubiquitin ligase activator of NFKB 1) also played a vital role in the lysosomal degradation of AKT by sequentially ubiquitinating AKT residues K284 to K214 for R-HSPA5-mediated autophagy. Consistent with this finding, despite HSPA5 arginylation, AKT was not degraded in mul1 KO cells. These results suggest that MUL1-mediated sequential ubiquitination of K284 to K214 may serve as a novel mechanism by which AKT is designated for lysosomal degradation. Moreover, binding of R-HSPA5 with fully ubiquitinated AKT is required for the autophagic/lysosomal degradation of AKT. Thus, modulating the MUL1-mediated non-proteasomal proteolysis mechanisms, such as sequential ubiquitination, may prove to be a novel therapeutic approach for cancer treatment.Abbreviations: AKT1: thymoma viral proto-oncogene 1; ATE1: arginyltransferase 1; ATG5: autophagy related 5; CASP3: caspase 3; EGFP: enhanced green fluorescent protein; GAPDH: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; GSK3B; glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta; HA: hemagglutinin; HSPA5/GRP78/BIP: heat shock protein 5; LAMP1: lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1; MAP1LC3B: microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; MEF: mouse embryonic fibroblast; MUL1: mitochondrial ubiquitin ligase activator of NFKB1; NAC: N-acetylcysteine; NEK2: NIMA (never in mitosis gene a)-related expressed kinase 2; NH4Cl: ammonium chloride; PARP1: poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family, member 1; PI: proteasome inhibitor; R-HSPA5: arginylated HSPA5; ROS: reactive oxygen species; SQSTM1: sequestome 1; Ub: ubiquitin; USP7: ubiquitin specific peptidase 7.

Nicotine exposure potentiates lung tumorigenesis by perturbing cellular surveillance. Br J Cancer 2020; 122:904-911.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nicotine is a major tobacco component and found at circulating concentrations in smokers' bloodstreams. Although considered a non-carcinogenic substance, nicotine rapidly defuses to tissues after being inhaled, inviting effects on cellular physiology, particularly in the lung. Widespread increased use of nicotine-based e-cigarettes, especially in younger adults, creates an urgent need for improved understanding of nicotine's potential to impact human health. METHODS Biological and biochemistry methods were used to interrogate the potential for nicotine to weaken the genetic integrity of murine and human-lung epithelial cells. RESULTS We demonstrate that nicotine potentiates the growth of the lung epithelial cells in a dose-response fashion. Nicotine elicits an acute increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS), which persists at moderately high levels throughout the duration of nicotine exposure. The aberrant increases in ROS appear to induce ER stress and UPR activation, as reflected by BIP upregulation and PERK phosphorylation. Furthermore, prolonged nicotine exposure interferes with p53 function triggered by sodium arsenite. Unless p53 is suppressed, persistent nicotine exposure does not induce colony formation by lung epithelial cells in soft agar. CONCLUSION The data suggest that nicotine treatment, by perturbing intracellular redox state and altering p53 function, can create a pro-tumorigenic environment in lung epithelium. The results suggest caution in using nicotine replacement therapies and e-cigarettes.

Abstract
Chromatin remodelling complexes are multi-subunit assemblies, each containing a catalytic ATPase and translocase that is capable of mobilizing nucleosomes to alter the chromatin structure. SWI/SNF remodelling complexes with higher DNA translocation efficiency evict histones or slide the nucleosomes away from each other making DNA accessible for transcription and repair machinery. Chromatin remodelling at the promoter of stress-responsive genes by SWI/SNF becomes necessary during the heat and proteotoxic stress. While the involvement of SWI/SNF in transcription of stress-responsive genes has been studied extensively, the regulation of proteostasis by SWI/SNF is not well understood. This study demonstrates critical functions of SWI/SNF in response to cadmium-induced proteotoxic stress. Deletion of either ATPase-translocase subunit of SWI/SNF complex (Swi2/Snf2) or a regulatory subunit Swi3 abrogates the clearance of cadmium-induced protein aggregates. Our results suggest that Snf2 and Swi3 regulate the protein folding in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that reduces the chances of forming unfolded protein aggregates under the proteotoxic stress of cadmium. The Ire1-mediated unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains ER homeostasis by upregulating the expression of chaperones and ER-associated degradation (ERAD) components. We found that Snf2 maintains normal oxidative environment essential for Ire1 activity. Deletion of SNF2 reduced the Ire1 activity and UPR, indicating involvement of Snf2 in Ire1-mediated ER proteostasis. Together, these findings suggest that SWI/SNF complex regulates ER homeostasis and protein folding crucial for tolerating proteotoxic stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis has been associated with a plethora of pathological factors and one which has recently emerged is chondrocyte endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. ER stress is sensed by key ER-resident stress sensors, one of which is activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6). The purpose of this study is to determine whether increased ER stress plays a role in OA. METHODS OA was induced in male wild-type (+/+), ColIITgcog (c/c) and Atf6α-/- mice by destabilisation of the medial meniscus (DMM). c/c mice have increased ER stress in chondrocytes via the collagen II promoter-driven expression of ER stress-inducing Tgcog. Knee joints were scored histologically for OA severity. RNA-seq was performed on laser-micro-dissected RNA from cartilage of +/+ and c/c DMM-operated mice. RESULTS In situ hybridisation demonstrated a correlation between the upregulation of ER stress marker, BiP, and early signs of proteoglycan loss and cartilage damage in DMM-operated +/+ mice. Histological analysis revealed a significant reduction in OA severity in c/c mice compared with +/+ at 2 weeks post-DMM. This chondroprotective effect in c/c mice was associated with a higher ambient level of BiP protein prior to DMM and a delay in chondrocyte apoptosis. RNA-seq analysis suggested Xbp1-regulated networks to be significantly enriched in c/c mice at 2 weeks post-DMM. Compromising the ER through genetically ablating Atf6α, a key ER stress sensor, had no effect on DMM-induced OA severity. CONCLUSION Our studies indicate that an increased capacity to effectively manage increases in ER stress in articular cartilage due either to pre-conditioning as a result of prior exposure to ER stress or to genetic pre-disposition may be beneficial in delaying the onset of OA, but once established, ER stress plays no significant role in disease progression.

Abstract
Misfolded proteins compromise cellular homeostasis. This is especially problematic in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which is a high-capacity protein-folding compartment and whose function requires stringent protein quality-control systems. Multiprotein complexes in the ER are able to identify, remove, ubiquitinate, and deliver misfolded proteins to the 26S proteasome for degradation in the cytosol, and these events are collectively termed ER-associated degradation, or ERAD. Several steps in the ERAD pathway are facilitated by molecular chaperone networks, and the importance of ERAD is highlighted by the fact that this pathway is linked to numerous protein conformational diseases. In this review, we discuss the factors that constitute the ERAD machinery and detail how each step in the pathway occurs. We then highlight the underlying pathophysiology of protein conformational diseases associated with ERAD.

Abstract
Some of the most challenging stress conditions that organisms encounter during their lifetime involve the transient accumulation of reactive oxygen and chlorine species. Extremely reactive to amino acid side chains, these oxidants cause widespread protein unfolding and aggregation. It is therefore not surprising that cells draw on a variety of different strategies to counteract the damage and maintain a healthy proteome. Orchestrated largely by direct changes in the thiol oxidation status of key proteins, the response strategies involve all layers of protein protection. Reprogramming of basic biological functions helps decrease nascent protein synthesis and restore redox homeostasis. Mobilization of oxidative stress-activated chaperones and production of stress-resistant non-proteinaceous chaperones prevent irreversible protein aggregation. Finally, redox-controlled increase in proteasome activity removes any irreversibly damaged proteins. Together, these systems pave the way to restore protein homeostasis and enable organisms to survive stress conditions that are inevitable when living an aerobic lifestyle.

Abstract
Cellular redox status is an established player in many different cellular functions. The buildup of oxidants within the cell is tightly regulated to maintain a balance between the positive and negative outcomes of cellular oxidants. Proteins are highly sensitive to oxidation, since modification can cause widespread unfolding and the formation of toxic aggregates. In response, cells have developed highly regulated systems that contribute to the maintenance of both the global redox status and protein homeostasis at large. Changes to these systems have been found to correlate with aging and age-related disorders, such as neurodegenerative pathologies. This raises intriguing questions as to the source of the imbalance in the redox and protein homeostasis systems, their interconnectivity, and their role in disease progression. Here we focus on the crosstalk between the redox and protein homeostasis systems in neurodegenerative diseases, specifically in Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ALS. We elaborate on some of the main players of the stress response systems, including the master regulators of oxidative stress and the heat shock response, Nrf2 and Hsf1, which are essential features of protein folding, and mediators of protein turnover. We illustrate the elegant mechanisms used by these components to provide an immediate response, including protein plasticity controlled by redox-sensing cysteines and the recruitment of naive proteins to the redox homeostasis array that act as chaperons in an ATP-independent manner.

Abstract
Glutathione (γ-l-glutamyl-l-cysteinylglycine) is a small tripeptide found at millimolar concentrations in nearly all eukaryotes as well as many prokaryotic cells. Glutathione synthesis is restricted to the cytosol in animals and fungi and to the cytosol and plastids in plants. Nonetheless, glutathione is found in virtually all subcellular compartments. This implies that transporters must exist that facilitate glutathione transport into and out of the various subcellular compartments. Glutathione may also be exported and imported across the plasma membrane in many cells. However, in most cases, the molecular identity of these transporters remains unclear. Whilst glutathione transport is essential for the supply and replenishment of subcellular glutathione pools, recent evidence supports a more active role for glutathione transport in the regulation of subcellular glutathione redox homeostasis. However, our knowledge of glutathione redox homeostasis at the level of specific subcellular compartments remains remarkably limited and the role of glutathione transport remains largely unclear. In this review, we discuss how new tools and techniques have begun to yield insights into subcellular glutathione distribution and glutathione redox homeostasis. In particular, we discuss the known and putative glutathione transporters and examine their contribution to the regulation of subcellular glutathione redox homeostasis.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a dynamic organelle orchestrating the folding and post-translational maturation of almost all membrane proteins and most secreted proteins. These proteins synthesized in the ER, need to form disulfide bridge to acquire specific three-dimensional structures for function. The formation of disulfide bridge is mediated via protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family and other oxidoreductases, which contribute to reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and consumption in the ER. Therefore, redox regulation of ER is delicate and sensitive to perturbation. Deregulation in ER homeostasis, usually called ER stress, can provoke unfolded protein response (UPR) pathways with an aim to initially restore homeostasis by activating genes involved in protein folding and antioxidative machinery. Over time, however, activated UPR involves a variety of cellular signaling pathways which determine the state and fate of cell in large part (like autophagy, apoptosis, ferroptosis, inflammation, senescence, stemness, and cell cycle, etc.). This review will describe the regulation of UPR from the redox perspective in controlling the cell survival or death, emphasizing the redox modifications of UPR sensors/transducers in the ER.

Abstract
The concept of cell signaling in the context of nonenzyme-assisted protein modifications by reactive electrophilic and oxidative species, broadly known as redox signaling, is a uniquely complex topic that has been approached from numerous different and multidisciplinary angles. Our Review reflects on five aspects critical for understanding how nature harnesses these noncanonical post-translational modifications to coordinate distinct cellular activities: (1) specific players and their generation, (2) physicochemical properties, (3) mechanisms of action, (4) methods of interrogation, and (5) functional roles in health and disease. Emphasis is primarily placed on the latest progress in the field, but several aspects of classical work likely forgotten/lost are also recollected. For researchers with interests in getting into the field, our Review is anticipated to function as a primer. For the expert, we aim to stimulate thought and discussion about fundamentals of redox signaling mechanisms and nuances of specificity/selectivity and timing in this sophisticated yet fascinating arena at the crossroads of chemistry and biology.

Abstract
Cysteine oxidative modification of cellular proteins is crucial for many aspects of cardiac hypertrophy development. However, integrated dissection of multiple types of cysteine oxidative post-translational modifications (O-PTM) of proteomes in cardiac hypertrophy is currently missing. Here we developed a novel discovery platform that encompasses a customized biotin switch-based quantitative proteomics pipeline and an advanced analytic workflow to comprehensively profile the landscape of cysteine O-PTM in an ISO-induced cardiac hypertrophy mouse model. Specifically, we identified a total of 1655 proteins containing 3324 oxidized cysteine sites by at least one of the following three modifications: reversible cysteine O-PTM, cysteine sulfinylation (CysSO2H), and cysteine sulfonylation (CysSO3H). Analyzing the hypertrophy signatures that are reproducibly discovered from this computational workflow unveiled four biological processes with increased cysteine O-PTM. Among them, protein phosphorylation, creatine metabolism, and response to elevated Ca2+ pathways exhibited an elevation of cysteine O-PTM in early stages, whereas glucose metabolism enzymes were increasingly modified in later stages, illustrating a temporal regulatory map in cardiac hypertrophy. Our cysteine O-PTM platform depicts a dynamic and integrated landscape of the cysteine oxidative proteome, through the extracted molecular signatures, and provides critical mechanistic insights in cardiac hypertrophy. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD010336.

Endoplasmic reticulum stress-dependent ROS production mediates synovial myofibroblastic differentiation in the immobilization-induced rat knee joint contracture model. Exp Cell Res 2018; 369:325-334. [PMID: 29856991 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2018.05.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2018] [Revised: 05/28/2018] [Accepted: 05/29/2018] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
Joint contracture is a common complication for people with joint immobility that involves fibrosis structural alteration in the joint capsule. Considering that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays a prominent role in the promotion of tissue fibrosis, we investigated whether the unfolded protein response (UPR) contributes to the fibrotic development in immobilization-induced knee joint contractures. Using a non-traumatic rat knee joint contracture model, twelve female Sprague-Dawley rats received knee joint immobilization for a period of 8 weeks. We found that fibrosis protein markers (type I collagen, α-SMA) and UPR (GRP78, ATF6α, XBP1s) markers were parallelly upregulated in rat primary cultured synovial myofibroblasts. In the same cell types, pre-treatment with an ER stress inhibitor, 4-phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA), not only abrogated cytokine TGFβ1 stimulation but also reduced the protein level of UPR. Additionally, high reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was detected in synovial myofibroblasts through flow cytometry, as expected. Notably, TGFβ1-induced UPR was significantly reduced through the inhibition of ROS with antioxidants. These data suggest that ER stress act as a pro-fibrotic stimulus through the overexpression of ROS in synovial fibroblasts. Interestingly, immunohistochemical results showed an increase in the UPR protein levels both in human acquired joint contractures capsule tissue and in animal knee joint contracture tissue. Together, our findings suggest that ER stress contributes to synovial myofibroblastic differentiation in joint capsule fibrosis and may also serve as a potential therapeutic target in joint contractures.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress can be activated by various pathological and physiological conditions including the unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore homeostasis. The UPR signaling pathways initiated by double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) like ER kinase (PERK), inositol requiring enzyme 1 α (IRE1α), and activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) are vital for tumor growth, aggressiveness, microenvironment remodeling, and resistance to cancer therapeutics. This review focuses on the role of ER stress and activity of UPR signaling pathways involved in tumor formation and uncontrolled cell proliferation during various cancers and viral malignancies.
