Abstract
Ferroptosis is a form of non-apoptotic programmed cell death, and its mechanisms mainly involve the accumulation of lipid peroxides, imbalance in the amino acid antioxidant system, and disordered iron metabolism. The primary organelle responsible for coordinating external challenges and internal cell demands is the endoplasmic reticulum, and the progression of inflammatory diseases can trigger endoplasmic reticulum stress. Evidence has suggested that ferroptosis may share pathways or interact with endoplasmic reticulum stress in many diseases and plays a role in cell survival. Ferroptosis and endoplasmic reticulum stress may occur after ischemic stroke. However, there are few reports on the interactions of ferroptosis and endoplasmic reticulum stress with ischemic stroke. This review summarized the recent research on the relationships between ferroptosis and endoplasmic reticulum stress and ischemic stroke, aiming to provide a reference for developing treatments for ischemic stroke.

Jiang R, Lu Z, Wang C, Tu W, Yao Q, Shen J, Zhu X, Wang Z, Chen Y, Yang Y, Kang K, Gong P. Astrocyte-derived Interleukin-31 causes poor prognosis in elderly patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Brain Pathol 2024:e13245. [PMID: 38354695 DOI: 10.1111/bpa.13245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
The incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is increasing every year, with very high rates of mortality and disability. The prognosis of elderly ICH patients is extremely unfavorable. Interleukin, as an important participant in building the inflammatory microenvironment of the central nervous system after ICH, has long been the focus of neuroimmunology research. However, there are no studies on the role IL31 play in the pathologic process of ICH. We collected para-lesion tissue for immunofluorescence and flow cytometry from the elderly and young ICH patients who underwent surgery. Here, we found that IL31 expression in the lesion of elderly ICH patients was significantly higher than that of young patients. The activation of astrocytes after ICH releases a large amount of IL31, which binds to microglia through IL31R, causing a large number of microglia to converge to the hematoma area, leading to the spread of neuroinflammation, apoptosis of neurons, and ultimately resulting in poorer recovery of nerve function. Interfering with IL31 expression suppresses neuroinflammation and promotes the recovery of neurological function. Our study demonstrated that elderly patients release more IL31 after ICH than young patients. IL31 promotes the progression of neuroinflammation, leading to neuronal apoptosis as well as neurological decline. Suppression of high IL31 concentrations in the brain after ICH may be a promising therapeutic strategy for ICH.

Abstract
Neuronal injury and apoptosis are important causes of the occurrence and development of many neurodegenerative diseases, such as cerebral ischemia, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Although the detailed mechanism of some diseases is unknown, the loss of neurons in the brain is still the main pathological feature. By exerting the neuroprotective effects of drugs, it is of great significance to alleviate the symptoms and improve the prognosis of these diseases. Isoquinoline alkaloids are important active ingredients in many traditional Chinese medicines. These substances have a wide range of pharmacological effects and significant activity. Although some studies have suggested that isoquinoline alkaloids may have pharmacological activities for treating neurodegenerative diseases, there is currently a lack of a comprehensive summary regarding their mechanisms and characteristics in neuroprotection. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the active components found in isoquinoline alkaloids that have neuroprotective effects. It thoroughly explains the various mechanisms behind the neuroprotective effects of isoquinoline alkaloids and summarizes their common characteristics. This information can serve as a reference for further research on the neuroprotective effects of isoquinoline alkaloids.

Abstract
Click chemistry is currently one of the most used tools for the generation of complex organic molecules. The advantages of using click chemistry in organic synthesis are remarkable; in many cases, the reactions occur under mild conditions and are free of solvents, with high yields and short reaction times. This makes it an extraordinarily effective and viable alternative for obtaining complex/conjugated molecules. In this review, the use of click chemistry CuAAC is especially emphasized for polyhydroxylated platforms such as resorcinarenes or calixarenes, focusing mainly on aspects of synthesis, specifically conditions, reagents, and methodologies.

Abstract
The method of iron-dependent cell death known as ferroptosis is distinct from apoptosis. The suppression of ferroptosis after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) will effectively treat ICH and improve prognosis. This paper primarily summarizes the mechanism of ferroptosis after ICH, with an emphasis on lipid peroxidation, the antioxidant system, iron metabolism, and other pathways. In addition, regulatory targets and drug molecules were described. Although there has been some progress in the field of study, there are still numerous gaps. The mechanism by which non-heme iron enters neurons through the blood-brain barrier (BBB), the mitochondrial role in ferroptosis, and the specific mechanism by which lipid peroxidation induces ferroptosis remain unclear and require further study. In addition, the inhibitory effect of many drugs on ferroptosis after ICH has only been demonstrated in basic experiments and must be translated into clinical trials. In summary, research on ferroptosis following ICH will play an important role in the treatment of ICH.

Abstract
Introduction Peripheral neutrophil infiltration can exacerbate ischemia–reperfusion injury. We focused on the relationship between various peripheral immune cells and cerebral ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods In this study, we investigated the effects of dauricine on neuronal injury induced by ischemia–reperfusion and peripheral immune cells after ischemic stroke in mouse model, and we explored the undefined mechanisms of regulating peripheral immune cells through RNA sequencing and various biochemical verification in vitro and in vivo. Results We found that dauricine improved the neurological deficits of I/R injury, reduced the infarct volume, and improved the neurological scores. Furthermore, dauricine reduced the infiltration of neutrophils into the brain after MCAO-R and increased peripheral neutrophils but unchanged the permeability of the endotheliocyte Transwell system in an in vitro blood-brain barrier (BBB) model. RNA sequencing showed that chemotaxis factors, such as CXCL3, CXCL11, CCL20, CCL22, IL12a, IL23a, and serpine1, might play a crucial role. Overexpression of serpine1 reversed LPS-induced migration of neutrophils. Dauricine can directly bind with serpine1 in ligand–receptor docking performed with the Autodock and analyzed with PyMOL. Conclusion We identified chemotaxis factor serpine1 played a crucial role in peripheral neutrophil infiltration, which may contribute to reduce the neuronal injury induced by ischemia–reperfusion. These findings reveal that serpine1 may act as a potential treatment target in the acute stage of ischemic stroke.

Cepharanthine Attenuates Early Brain Injury after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Mice via Inhibiting 15-Lipoxygenase-1-Mediated Microglia and Endothelial Cell Ferroptosis. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:4295208. [PMID: 35186185 PMCID: PMC8850040 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4295208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2021] [Revised: 12/29/2021] [Accepted: 01/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Background Ferroptosis is a newly identified form of programmed cell death caused by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Our study was designed to determine the expression patterns and role of 15-lipoxygenase-1 (ALOX15) in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and to investigate whether cepharanthine (CEP) can inhibit ferroptosis by inhibiting ALOX15 in specific cell types. Methods A mouse model of SAH was developed by the endovascular perforation method. bEend.3 endothelial cells and BV2 microglial cells as well as RSL3 and hemin were used to simulate SAH in vitro. Mice and cell lines were treated with CEP and a group of specific oxygenase inhibitors to explore the protection effect from ferroptosis. Lipid peroxidation staining with BODIPY 581/591 C11 and transmission electron microscopy were used to identify ferroptosis in vitro and in vivo. Results In the present study, the accumulation of lipid peroxide, a defect in the glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4)/glutathione (GSH) antioxidant system, highly expressed ALOX15 in microglia and endothelium, and ferroptotic changes in microglial mitochondria confirmed the occurrence of ferroptosis after SAH in vivo. Further, CEP was shown to inhibit ferroptosis and improve neurological function by downregulating the expression of ALOX15. During in vitro experiments, we investigated the important role ALOX15 in RSL3-induced endothelial ferroptosis. In addition, we found that M2-type microglia are more sensitive to RSL3-induced ferroptosis than M1-type microglia and that hemin probably induced ferroptosis in M2-type microglia by increasing ALOX15 levels and decreasing GPx4 levels. The effect of CEP treatment was also demonstrated in vitro. Conclusions In summary, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first study demonstrating that ferroptosis occurred in the microglia and endothelium after SAH, and this process was facilitated by increased ALOX15 levels. More importantly, treatment with CEP could inhibit ferroptosis through downregulating the expression of ALOX15.

Abstract
Alkaloids are nitrogen-containing organic compounds widely found in natural products, which play an essential role in clinical treatment. Cellular signaling pathways in tumors are a series of enzymatic reaction pathways that convert extracellular signals into intracellular signals to produce biological effects. The ordered function of cell signaling pathways is essential for tumor cell proliferation, differentiation, and programmed death. This review describes the antitumor progression mediated by various alkaloids after inhibiting classical signaling pathways; related studies are systematically retrieved and collected through PubMed. We selected the four currently most popular pathways for discussion and introduced the molecular mechanisms mediated by alkaloids in different signaling pathways, including the NF-kB signaling pathway, PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, and P53 signaling pathway. The research progress of alkaloids related to tumor signal transduction pathways and the realization of alkaloids as cancer prevention drugs by targeting signal pathways remains.

Dauricine alleviated secondary brain injury after intracerebral hemorrhage by upregulating GPX4 expression and inhibiting ferroptosis of nerve cells. Eur J Pharmacol 2021; 914:174461. [PMID: 34469757 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2021.174461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2021] [Revised: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe stroke subtype with high disability and mortality, and no effective treatment is available. Previous research on intracerebral hemorrhage secondary brain injury drugs mainly targeted at cell apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress, but did not achieve good effects. In recent years, ferroptosis has become a focus concern in neurological diseases. Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death caused by iron-dependent accumulation of lipid peroxides, in which glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is a key protein affecting ferroptosis. In this study, we used the STRING protein database to predict the proteins that may be co-expressed with GPX4, and studied the ability of Dauricine(Dau) to up-regulate the expression of GPX4 against ferroptosis and neuroprotection after intracerebral hemorrhage in normal cells in vitro, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) knockdown cells and collagenase injection in vivo in mouse models of intracerebral hemorrhage. The results showed that glutathione reductase (GSR) was a possible co-expression protein with GPX4. Dau could up-regulate the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) in intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) model, normal cells and GPX4 knockdown cells in vitro, and simultaneously up-regulate the expression of GSR in ICH mice. Dau could also reduce the levels of iron and lipid peroxidation, and have a neuroprotective effect on intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) mice. It was tesified that Dauricine(Dau) could inhibit ferroptosis of nerve cells and alleviate brain injury after intracerebral hemorrhage by upregulating glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and glutathione reductase (GSR) co-expression. Therefore, Dau may be an effective drug for inhibiting ferroptosis and treating intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a barrier that prevents almost all large and most small exogenous molecules from reaching the brain. The barrier is the major cause of treatment failure for most brain diseases. Extensive efforts have been made to facilitate drug molecules to cross the BBB. One of the approaches is to employ an endogenous ligand or ligand analogue that can enter the brain through its transporter or receptor at the BBB as a brain-targeting agent. Glutathione (GSH) transporters are richly expressed at the BBB with limited presence in other tissues except kidneys. 2-(2-Cholesteroxyethoxyl)ethyl 3'-S-glutathionylpropionate (COXP), formed by connecting GSH with cholesterol through a linker, was designed as a GSH transporter-mediated brain targeting molecule. The amphiphilic nature of COXP enables the molecule to self-assemble to form micelles with a CMC value of 3.9 μM. By using DiR as a fluorescence tracking agent and the whole-body fluorescence imaging technique, the brain distribution of DiR delivered by COXP micelles in mice was 20 folds higher when compared with free DiR. Interestingly, the brain targeting effect was further enhanced by co-administration of GSH. The low CMC value and effective brain targeting make COXP micelles a promising drug delivery system to the brain.

Abstract
Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating subtype of stroke with high morbidity and mortality. It has been reported that paeonol (PAN) inhibits the progression of ICH. However, the mechanism by which paeonol mediates the progression of ICH remains unclear. To mimic ICH in vitro, neuronal cells were treated with hemin. An in vivo model of ICH was established to detect the effect of paeonol on ferroptosis in neurons during ICH. Cell viability was tested by MTT assay. Furthermore, cell injury was detected by GSH, MDA and ROS assays. Ferroptosis was examined by iron assay. RT-qPCR and western blotting were used to detect gene and protein expression, respectively. The correlation among HOTAIR, UPF1 and ACSL4 was explored by FISH, RNA pull-down and RIP assays. Paeonol significantly inhibited the ferroptosis of neurons in ICH mice. In addition, paeonol significantly reversed hemin-induced injury and ferroptosis in neurons, while this phenomenon was notably reversed by HOTAIR overexpression. Moreover, paeonol notably inhibited ferroptosis in hemin-treated neuronal cells via inhibition of ACSL4. Additionally, HOTAIR bound to UPF1, and UPF1 promoted the degradation of ACSL4 by binding to ACSL4. Furthermore, HOTAIR overexpression reversed paeonol-induced inhibition of ferroptosis by mediating the UPF1/ACSL4 axis. Paeonol inhibits the progression of ICH by mediating the HOTAIR/UPF1/ACSL4 axis. Therefore, paeonol might serve as a new agent for the treatment of ICH.
