A stress response p38 MAP kinase inhibitor SB202190 promoted TFEB/TFE3-dependent autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis independent of p38
Publication date: Available online 28 January 2020Source: Redox BiologyAuthor(s): Chuanbin Yang, Zhou Zhu, Benjamin Chun-Kit Tong, Ashok Iyaswamy, Wen-Jian Xie, Yu Zhu, Sravan Gopalkrishnashetty Sreenivasmurthy, Krishnamoorthi Senthilkumar, King-Ho Cheung, Ju-Xian Song, Hong-Jie Zhang, Min LiAbstractTFEB (transcription factor EB) and TFE3 (transcription factor E3) are “master regulators” of autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis. The stress response p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases affects multiple intracellular responses including inflammation, cell growth, differentiation, cell death, senescence, tumorigenesis...

Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase regulates cystine deprivation-induced ferroptosis in head and neck cancer
We examined the role of dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) in ferroptosis induction in head and neck cancer (HNC). The effects of cystine deprivation or sulfasalazine treatment and of DLD gene silencing/overexpression were tested on HNC cell lines and mouse tumor xenograft models. These effects were analyzed with regard to cell death, lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial iron production, mitochondrial membrane potential, mRNA/protein expression, and α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KGDH)/succinate/aconitase activities. Cystine deprivation induced ferroptosis via glutaminolysis. Cystine deprivation or impo...

The nuclear transcription factor FoxG1 affects the sensitivity of mimetic aging hair cells to inflammation by regulating autophagy pathways
In this study, we first found that FoxG1 expression and autophagy both increased gradually in the low concentration lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation model, while after high concentration of LPS treatment both FoxG1 expression and autophagy levels decreased as the concentration of LPS increased. We then used siRNA to downregulate Foxg1 expression in hair cell-like OC-1 cells and found that cell death and apoptosis were significantly increased after LPS injury. Furthermore, we used d-galactose (D-gal) to create an aging model with hair cell-like OC-1 cells and cochlear explant cultures in vitro and found tha...

Inhibition of SGK1 confers vulnerability to redox dysregulation in cervical cancer
Publication date: Available online 20 May 2019Source: Redox BiologyAuthor(s): Min Wang, Yijue Xue, Lanlin Shen, Pan Qin, Xiaolin Sang, Zhiwei Tao, Jingyan Yi, Jia Wang, Pixu Liu, Hailing ChengAbstractCervical cancer has poor prognosis and patients are often diagnosed at advanced stages of the disease with limited treatment options. There is thus an urgent need for the discovery of new therapeutic strategies in cervical cancer. The activation of SGK1 has been linked to the development of various cancer types but little is known about the role of SGK1 in cervical cancer and its potential as a therapeutic target. Here we repo...

Ku80 promotes melanoma growth and regulates antitumor effect of melatonin by targeting HIF1-α dependent PDK-1 signaling pathway
In this study, we screened a siRNA library targeting 6024 human genes and identified Ku80 as a potential therapeutic target in melanoma cells. Knockdown of Ku80 significantly suppressed melanoma cell proliferation and induced apoptosis, as well as enhanced the antitumor effect of melatonin in melanoma in vitro and in vivo. Overexpression of Ku80, however, promoted melanoma growth and increased the insensitivity of melanoma cells to melatonin. Mechanistically, we found that Ku80 bound to the PDK1 promoter and activated the transcription of PDK1. Moreover, we showed that the binding of Ku80 at the PDK-1 promoter was HIF1-α ...

Inhibition of Brd4 alleviates renal ischemia/reperfusion injury-induced apoptosis and endoplasmic reticulum stress by blocking FoxO4-mediated oxidative stress
In conclusion, our results proved that Brd4 inhibition blocked renal apoptotic and ERS protein expression by preventing FoxO4-dependent ROS generation through the PI3K/AKT pathway, indicating that Brd4 could be a potential therapeutic target for renal I/R injury.Graphical abstract

FoxO6-mediated IL-1β induces hepatic insulin resistance and age-related inflammation via the TF/PAR2 pathway in aging and diabetic mice
Publication date: Available online 3 April 2019Source: Redox BiologyAuthor(s): Dae Hyun Kim, Bonggi Lee, Jaewon Lee, Mi Eun Kim, Jun Sik Lee, Jae Heun Chung, Byung Pal Yu, H. Henry Dong, Hae Young ChungAbstractFoxO has been proposed to play a role in the promotion of insulin resistance, and inflammation. FoxO is a pro-inflammatory transcription factor that is a key mediator of generation of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β in the liver. However, the detailed association of FoxO6 with insulin resistance and age-related inflammation has not been fully documented. Here, we showed that FoxO6 was elevated in the livers of ...

Vascular peroxidase 1 is a novel regulator of cardiac fibrosis after myocardial infarction
Publication date: Available online 27 February 2019Source: Redox BiologyAuthor(s): Zhaoya Liu, Qian Xu, Qixin Yang, Jing Cao, Cong Wu, Huihui Peng, Xinyi Zhang, Jia Chen, Guangjie Cheng, Yueheng Wu, Ruizheng Shi, Guogang ZhangAbstractCardiac fibrosis is the most important mechanism contributing to cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI). VPO1 is a heme enzyme that uses hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce hypochlorous acid (HOCl). Our previous study has demonstrated that VPO1 regulates myocardial ischemic reperfusion and renal fibrosis. We investigated the role of VPO1 in cardiac fibrosis after MI. The results s...

Nox1/Ref-1-mediated activation of CREB promotes Gremlin1-driven endothelial cell proliferation and migration
Publication date: April 2019Source: Redox Biology, Volume 22Author(s): Daniel S. de Jesus, Evan DeVallance, Yao Li, Micol Falabella, Danielle Guimaraes, Sruti Shiva, Brett A. Kaufman, Mark T. Gladwin, Patrick J. PaganoAbstractPulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a complex degenerative disorder marked by aberrant vascular remodeling associated with hyperproliferation and migration of endothelial cells (ECs). Previous reports implicated bone morphogenetic protein antagonist Gremlin 1 in this process; however, little is known of the molecular mechanisms involved. The current study was designed to test whether redox signal...

LRP1 activation attenuates white matter injury by modulating microglial polarization through Shc1/PI3K/Akt pathway after subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats
Publication date: Available online 23 January 2019Source: Redox BiologyAuthor(s): Jianhua Peng, Jinwei Pang, Lei Huang, Budbazar Enkhjargal, Tongyu Zhang, Jun Mo, Pei Wu, Weilin Xu, Yuchun Zuo, Jun Peng, Gang Zuo, Ligang Chen, Jiping Tang, John H. Zhang, Yong JiangAbstractWhite matter injury (WMI) is associated with motor deficits and cognitive dysfunctions in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients. Therapeutic strategy targeting WMI would likely improve the neurological outcomes after SAH. Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP1), a scavenger receptor of apolipoprotein E (apoE), is able to modulate microg...

Specific Delivery of Delta-5-Desaturase siRNA via RNA Nanoparticles Supplemented with Dihomo-γ-Linolenic Acid for Colon Cancer Suppression
In this study, we employed RNA nanotechnology for specific delivery of D5D-siRNA to xenograft colon tumors using 3WJ RNA nanoparticles. When a targeting module, i.e., the EpCAM aptamer, was incorporated, the 3WJ pRNA nanoparticles were able specifically deliver D5D siRNA to human colon cancer HCA-7 cells both in vitro and in vivo, resulting in significant downregulation of D5D expression. Co-treatment with DGLA in combination with 3WJ-EpCAM-siRNA induced a higher DGLA/AA ratio and enhanced formation of 8-HOA at a threshold level, and in HCA-7 tumor-bearing mice, induced significant tumor suppression. We further confirmed t...
