Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:4814. [PMID: 38732029 PMCID: PMC11084681 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25094814] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Neointimal hyperplasia is the main cause of vascular graft failure in the medium term. Vitamin D receptor activation modulates the biology of vascular smooth muscle cells and has been reported to protect from neointimal hyperplasia following endothelial injury. However, the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. We have now explored the impact of the selective vitamin D receptor activator, paricalcitol, on neointimal hyperplasia, following guidewire-induced endothelial cell injury in rats, and we have assessed the impact of paricalcitol or vehicle on the expression of key cell stress factors. Guidewire-induced endothelial cell injury caused neointimal hyperplasia and luminal stenosis and upregulated the expression of the growth factor growth/differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15), the cytokine receptor CD74, NFκB-inducing kinase (NIK, an upstream regulator of the proinflammatory transcription factor NFκB) and the chemokine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2). Immunohistochemistry confirmed the increased expression of the cellular proteins CD74 and NIK. Paricalcitol (administered in doses of 750 ng/kg of body weight, every other day) had a non-significant impact on neointimal hyperplasia and luminal stenosis. However, it significantly decreased GDF-15, CD74, NIK and MCP-1/CCL2 mRNA expression, which in paricalcitol-injured arteries remained within the levels found in control vehicle sham arteries. In conclusion, paricalcitol had a dramatic effect, suppressing the stress response to guidewire-induced endothelial cell injury, despite a limited impact on neointimal hyperplasia and luminal stenosis. This observation identifies novel molecular targets of paricalcitol in the vascular system, whose differential expression cannot be justified as a consequence of improved tissue injury.

Anticancer Drugs 2023; 34:1002-1009.

Abstract
Enhancing research indicatedthat circular RNA (circRNA) acted a critical part in cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL) development. This research aims to discover the role of circRNA SWI/SNF-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a, member 5 (SMARCA5) in CHOL bio-progression, which has been proved to be downregulated in CHOL tissues. In this study, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to reveal the level and linkage of circRNA SMARCA5, miRNA-95-3p and TNF receptor-associated factor 3 gene (TRAF3) in CHOL tissues and cancer cells. The target sites of circRNA SMARCA5 and miRNA-95-3p were forecast by Starbase, and Targetscan was conducted to forecast the potential linkage points of TRAF3 and miRNA-95-3p, and which is affirmed by double luciferase reporter assay. CCK-8 and flow cytometry assay was carried to indicate cell viability. And apoptosis-related protein was counted by caspase3 activity and Western blot assay. CircRNA SMARCA5 was downregulated in CHOL cell lines and cancer samples. Besides, over-expression of SMARCA5 inhibited cell growth and promoted apoptotic rate. Dual-luciferase reporter assays presented that miRNA-95-3p could link with circRNA SMARCA5. Moreover, miRNA-95-3p was discovered highly expressed in CHOL. Interference of miRNA-95-3p repressed cell proliferation and raised the apoptosis. Importantly, TRAF3 was validated to be a downstream of miRNA-95-3p. Strengthen of miRNA-95-3p reversed the inhibitory impact of circRNA SMARCA5-plasmid transfection, and the results of miRNA-95-3p inhibitor were reversed by si-TRAF3. CircRNA SMARCA5 is involved in CHOL development by interosculating miRNA-95-3p/TRAF3 axis and may become a novel approach for treating CHOL.

Abstract
As life expectancy increases in many countries, the prevalence of age-related diseases also rises. Among these conditions, chronic kidney disease is predicted to become the second cause of death in some countries before the end of the century. An important problem with kidney diseases is the lack of biomarkers to detect early damage or to predict the progression to renal failure. In addition, current treatments only retard kidney disease progression, and better tools are needed. Preclinical research has shown the involvement of the activation of cellular senescence-related mechanisms in natural aging and kidney injury. Intensive research is searching for novel treatments for kidney diseases as well as for anti-aging therapies. In this sense, many experimental shreds of evidence support that treatment with vitamin D or its analogs can exert pleiotropic protective effects in kidney injury. Moreover, vitamin D deficiency has been described in patients with kidney diseases. Here, we review recent evidence about the relationship between vitamin D and kidney diseases, explaining the underlying mechanisms of the effect of vitamin D actions, with particular attention to the modulation of cellular senescence mechanisms.

Front Immunol 2022; 13:781003. [PMID: 35720321 PMCID: PMC9199371 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.781003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
As an important transcription factor, heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) plays an endogenous anti-inflammation role in the body and can alleviate multiple organ dysfunction caused by sepsis, which contributes to an uncontrolled inflammatory response. The NLRP3 inflammasome is a supramolecular complex that plays key roles in immune surveillance. Inflammation is accomplished by NLRP3 inflammasome activation, which leads to the proteolytic maturation of IL-1β and pyroptosis. However, whether HSF1 is involved in the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in septic acute lung injury (ALI) has not been reported. Here, we show that HSF1 suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation in transcriptional and post-translational modification levels. HSF1 can repress NLRP3 expression via inhibiting NF-κB phosphorylation. HSF1 can inhibit caspase-1 activation and IL-1β maturation via promoting NLRP3 ubiquitination. Our finding not only elucidates a novel mechanism for HSF1-mediated protection of septic ALI but also identifies new therapeutic targets for septic ALI and related diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In chronic kidney disease, the activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and renal inflammation stimulates renal fibrosis and the progression to end-stage renal disease. The low levels of vitamin D receptor (VDR) and its activators (VDRAs) contribute to worsen secondary hyperparathyroidism and renal fibrosis. METHODS The 7/8 nephrectomy model of experimental chronic renal failure (CRF) was used to examine the anti-fibrotic effects of treatment with two VDRAs, paricalcitol and calcitriol, at equivalent doses (3/1 dose ratio) during 4 weeks. RESULTS CRF increased the activation of the RAAS, renal inflammation and interstitial fibrosis. Paricalcitol treatment reduced renal collagen I and renal interstitial fibrosis by decreasing the activation of the RAAS through renal changes in renin, angiotensin receptor 1 (ATR1) and ATR2 mRNAs levels and renal inflammation by decreasing renal inflammatory leucocytes (CD45), a desintegrin and metaloproteinase mRNA, transforming growth factor beta mRNA and protein, and maintaining E-cadherin mRNA levels. Calcitriol showed similar trends without significant changes in most of these biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS Paricalcitol effectively attenuated the renal interstitial fibrosis induced by CRF through a combination of inhibitory actions on the RAAS, inflammation and epithelial/mesenchymal transition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Bisphenol A (BPA) is a ubiquitous environmental toxin that accumulates in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our aim was to explore the effect of chronic exposition of BPA in healthy and injured kidney investigating potential mechanisms involved. METHODS: In C57Bl/6 mice, administration of BPA (120 mg/kg/day, i.p for 5 days/week) was done for 2 and 5 weeks. To study BPA effect on CKD, a model of subtotal nephrectomy (SNX) combined with BPA administration for 5 weeks was employed. In vitro studies were done in human proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 line). RESULTS: Chronic BPA administration to healthy mice induces inflammatory infiltration in the kidney, tubular injury and renal fibrosis (assessed by increased collagen deposition). Moreover, in SNX mice BPA exposure exacerbates renal lesions, including overexpression of the tubular damage biomarker Hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1 (Havcr-1/KIM-1). BPA upregulated several proinflammatory genes and increased the antioxidant response [Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), Heme Oxygenase-1 (Ho-1) and NAD(P)H dehydrogenase quinone 1 (Nqo-1)] both in healthy and SNX mice. The autophagy process was modulated by BPA, through elevated autophagy-related gene 5 (Atg5), autophagy-related gene 7 (Atg7), Microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3B (Map1lc3b/Lc3b) and Beclin-1 gene levels and blockaded the autophagosome maturation and flux (p62 levels). This autophagy deregulation was confirmed in vitro. CONCLUSIONS: BPA deregulates autophagy flux and redox protective mechanisms, suggesting a potential mechanism of BPA deleterious effects in the kidney.

Hypothermic oxygenated perfusion inhibits HECTD3-mediated TRAF3 polyubiquitination to alleviate DCD liver ischemia-reperfusion injury. Cell Death Dis 2021; 12:211.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable and serious clinical problem in donations after heart death (DCD) liver transplantation. Excessive sterile inflammation plays a fateful role in liver IRI. Hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE), as an emerging organ preservation technology, has a better preservation effect than cold storage (CS) for reducing liver IRI, in which regulating inflammation is one of the main mechanisms. HECTD3, a new E3 ubiquitin ligase, and TRAF3 have an essential role in inflammation. However, little is known about HECTD3 and TRAF3 in HOPE-regulated liver IRI. Here, we aimed to investigate the effects of HOPE on liver IRI in a DCD rat model and explore the roles of HECTD3 and TRAF3 in its pathogenesis. We found that HOPE significantly improved liver damage, including hepatocyte and liver sinusoidal endothelial cell injury, and reduced DCD liver inflammation. Mechanistically, both the DOC and HECT domains of HECTD3 directly interacted with TRAF3, and the catalytic Cys (C832) in the HECT domain promoted the K63-linked polyubiquitination of TRAF3 at Lys138. Further, the ubiquitinated TRAF3 at Lys138 increased oxidative stress and activated the NF-κB inflammation pathway to induce liver IRI in BRL-3A cells under hypoxia/reoxygenation conditions. Finally, we confirmed that the expression of HECTD3 and TRAF3 was obviously increased in human DCD liver transplantation specimens. Overall, these findings demonstrated that HOPE can protect against DCD liver transplantation-induced-liver IRI by reducing inflammation via HECTD3-mediated TRAF3 K63-linked polyubiquitination. Therefore, HOPE regulating the HECTD3/TRAF3 pathway is a novel target for improving IRI in DCD liver transplantation.

Abstract
Over the last 30 years, nuclear receptors (NRs) have been increasingly recognized as key modulators of systemic homeostasis and as contributing factors in many diseases. In the kidney, NRs play numerous important roles in maintaining homeostasis-many of which continue to be unraveled. As "master regulators", these important transcription factors integrate and coordinate many renal processes such as circadian responses, lipid metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, glucose handling, and inflammatory responses. The use of recently-developed genetic tools and small molecule modulators have allowed for detailed studies of how renal NRs contribute to kidney homeostasis. Importantly, while NRs are intimately involved in proper kidney function, they are also implicated in a variety of renal diseases such as diabetes, acute kidney injury, and other conditions such as aging. In the last 10 years, our understanding of renal disease etiology and progression has been greatly shaped by knowledge regarding how NRs are dysregulated in these conditions. Importantly, NRs have also become attractive therapeutic targets for attenuation of renal diseases, and their modulation for this purpose has been the subject of intense investigation. Here, we review the role in health and disease of six key renal NRs including the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR), estrogen-related receptors (ERR), the farnesoid X receptors (FXR), estrogen receptors (ER), liver X receptors (LXR), and vitamin D receptors (VDR) with an emphasis on recent findings over the last decade. These NRs have generated a wealth of data over the last 10 years that demonstrate their crucial role in maintaining normal renal homeostasis as well as their capacity to modulate disease progression.
