Altered lipid metabolites accelerate early dysfunction of T cells in HIV-infected rapid progressors by impairing mitochondrial function. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1106881.

Abstract
The complex mechanism of immune-system damage in HIV infection is incompletely understood. HIV-infected "rapid progressors" (RPs) have severe damage to the immune system early in HIV infection, which provides a "magnified" opportunity to study the interaction between HIV and the immune system. In this study, forty-four early HIV-infected patients (documented HIV acquisition within the previous 6 months) were enrolled. By study the plasma of 23 RPs (CD4+ T-cell count < 350 cells/µl within 1 year of infection) and 21 "normal progressors" (NPs; CD4+ T-cell count > 500 cells/μl after 1 year of infection), eleven lipid metabolites were identified that could distinguish most of the RPs from NPs using an unsupervised clustering method. Among them, the long chain fatty acid eicosenoate significantly inhibited the proliferation and secretion of cytokines and induced TIM-3 expression in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Eicosenoate also increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreased oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and mitochondrial mass in T cells, indicating impairment in mitochondrial function. In addition, we found that eicosenoate induced p53 expression in T cells, and inhibition of p53 effectively decreased mitochondrial ROS in T cells. More importantly, treatment of T cells with the mitochondrial-targeting antioxidant mito-TEMPO restored eicosenoate-induced T-cell functional impairment. These data suggest that the lipid metabolite eicosenoate inhibits immune T-cell function by increasing mitochondrial ROS by inducing p53 transcription. Our results provide a new mechanism of metabolite regulation of effector T-cell function and provides a potential therapeutic target for restoring T-cell function during HIV infection.

Abstract
Fish cell lines, collectively referred to as the fish invitrome, are useful diagnostic tools to study radiation impacts on aquatic health and elucidate radiation mechanisms in fish. This paper will highlight the advantages, discuss the challenges, and propose possible future directions for uses of the fish invitrome in the field of environmental radiobiology. The fish invitrome contains at least 714 fish cell lines. However, only a few of these cell lines have been used to study radiation biology in fish and they represent only 10 fish species. The fish invitrome is clearly not yet explored for its full potential in radiation biology. Evidence suggests that they are useful and, in some cases, irreplaceable in making underlying theories and fundamental concepts in radiation responses in fish. The debate of whether environmental radiation is harmful, presents risks, has no effect on health, or is beneficial is on-going and is one that fish cell lines can help address in a time-effective fashion. Any information obtained with fish cell lines is useful in the framework of environment radiation risk assessments. Radiation threats to aquatic health will continue due to the very likely rise of nuclear energy and medicine in the future. The fish invitrome, in theory, lives forever and can meet new challenges at any given time to provide diagnostic risk analyses pertaining to aquatic health and environmental radiation protection.

Abstract
The effect of inhibition of the tumor suppressor p53 on the antioxidant system genes expression under the influence of cytotoxic compounds of the platinum group was studied. It was found that the action of platinum(II) and platinum(IV) complexes induced accumulation of p53 protein with a maximum in 12 h, which was confirmed by an increase in the expression of the P21 gene, the target gene of the p53 protein. It was shown that the action of platinum complexes activated the expression of catalase and superoxide dismutase 2 genes. Suppression of p53 protein functions with specific inhibitor α-piphitrin under the action of platinum complexes reduced the expression of catalase and superoxide dismutase 2 genes and the target gene P21, which attested to the p53-dependent regulation of these genes.

CHEMOSPHERE 2020; 241:124989.

Abstract
Here we reported the stress responses of nutrient deprivation and extended observation of autophagy, apoptosis, and DNA methylation in zebrafish embryonic fibroblast (ZF4) cells. Our results showed that serum deprivation resulted in the changes of cell shape and adherent ability, the suppressed cell growth and viability, and the inhibited proliferation and cell cycle. Besides, the appearance of lysosome and autophagosome/autolysosome with significantly increased expression of mRNAs (ulk1a, becn1, atg12, sqstm1, maplc3, and lamp1) and proteins (Atg12, Becn1, Sqstm1, and Lamp1) indicate the autophagic activity was boosted at initial stage but relatively weakened at 48 h of serum starvation. When autophagy no longer mitigate for the stress, cell apoptosis detected by the mRNA expression of caspases, Bcl-2/Bax expression, and Annexin V/PI was gradually enhanced to execute the death plan upon prolonged starvation process. Furthermore, the methyl group metabolism was increased in accordance with autophagic activity and was suppressed by enhanced apoptotic activity. These data suggested that the recycle activity induced by autophagy could compensate the substrates and reactions of DNA transmethylation, which obviously increased 5-methylcytosine (5 mC) level in ZF4 cells. In summary, our results discovered the cellular responses under prolonged serum starvation stress and elaborated the switch from autophagy to apoptosis and corresponding correlation with 5 mC level changes in teleost fish in vitro.

[PMID: 29554631 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2018.03.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2017] [Revised: 02/15/2018] [Accepted: 03/03/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Rainbow trout cell cultures were exposed to three genotoxicants and examined for effects on γH2AX and p53 levels by western blotting and on cell viability using the indicator dyes Alamar Blue (AB) for energy metabolism and 5'-carboxyfluorescein diacetate acetoxymethyl ester (CFDA-AM) for plasma membrane integrity. Bleomycin induced γH2AX and p53 in a dose- and time-dependent manner and had little cytotoxic effect. However, induction was first seen at 0.3 μM for γH2AX but not until 16.5 μM for p53. Methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) increased H2AX phosphorylation but diminished p53 levels as the dose was increased from 908 μM up to 2724 μM. Over this dose range cell viability was progressively lost. 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide (NQO) induced both γH2AX and p53, beginning at 62.5 nM, which was also the concentration at which cell viability began to decline. As the NQO concentration increased further, elevated γH2AX was detected at up to 2.0 μM, while p53 was elevated up to 1.0 μM. Therefore, H2AX phosphorylation was superior to p53 levels as a marker of DNA damage caused by genotoxicants that act by introducing double-stranded DNA breaks (bleomycin), alkyl groups (MMS), and quinoline adducts (NQO).
