Nagano S, Unuma K, Aki T, Uemura K. N-acetylcysteine alleviates arsenic trioxide-induced reductions in hepatic catalase gene expression both in vitro and in vivo. Leg Med (Tokyo) 2024; 69:102458. [PMID: 38781725 DOI: 10.1016/j.legalmed.2024.102458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Arsenic trioxide (ATO), one of the oldest and most frequently used poisons, is well-known in forensic science for inducing hepatotoxicity. The regulation of peroxisomal antioxidative enzyme catalase (CAT) involves intricate mechanisms at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of CAT gene expression in hepatic cells remain elusive. Furthermore, the regulation of CAT gene expression evident in animals administered with ATO in vivo is not well-explored, although several studies have revealed ATO-induced reductions in CAT enzymatic activity in rat livers. In this study, we revealed ATO-dependent reductions in CAT gene expression in both rat liver and Huh-7 human hepatoma cells. Our results indicate that the decline in CAT enzymatic activity can be attributed, at least in part, to the downregulation of its gene expression. The ATO-induced reduction in CAT expression was concurrent with the reduction in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) coactivator (PGC)-1α and inactivation of PPARγ, both considered as positive regulators of CAT gene expression. Moreover, antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) demonstrated the capability to alleviate the downregulation of CAT gene expression both in vivo and in vitro. Additionally, NAC played a role in alleviating ATO-induced hepatotoxicity, potentially by mitigating the transcriptional downregulation of the CAT gene. Altogether, these results indicate that ATO exerts toxicity by inhibiting the antioxidant defense mechanism, which may be useful for forensic diagnosis of arsenic poisoning and clinical treatment of mitigating ATO-induced hepatotoxicity.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles found in eukaryotic cells that play a critical role in the oxidative metabolism of lipids and detoxification of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Recently, the role of peroxisomes in viral infections has been extensively studied. Although several studies have reported that peroxisomes exert antiviral activity, evidence indicates that viruses have also evolved diverse strategies to evade peroxisomal antiviral signals. In this review, we summarize the multiple roles of peroxisomes in the interplay between viruses and mammalian cells. Focus is given on the peroxisomal regulation of innate immune response, lipid metabolism, ROS production, and viral regulation of peroxisomal biosynthesis and degradation. Understanding the interactions between peroxisomes and viruses provides novel insights for the development of new antiviral strategies.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:2083.

Abstract
Oxidative stress, a hallmark pathophysiological feature in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), arises from the intricate interplay between pro-oxidants and anti-oxidants. While hyperglycemia has been well established as a key contributor, lipotoxicity emerges as a significant instigator of oxidative stress. Lipotoxicity encompasses the accumulation of lipid intermediates, culminating in cellular dysfunction and cell death. However, the mechanisms underlying lipotoxic kidney injury in DKD still require further investigation. The key role of cell metabolism in the maintenance of cell viability and integrity in the kidney is of paramount importance to maintain proper renal function. Recently, dysfunction in energy metabolism, resulting from an imbalance in oxygen levels in the diabetic condition, may be the primary pathophysiologic pathway driving DKD. Therefore, we aim to shed light on the pivotal role of oxidative stress related to lipotoxicity and renal hypoxia in the initiation and progression of DKD. Multifaceted mechanisms underlying lipotoxicity, including oxidative stress with mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress activated by the unfolded protein response pathway, pro-inflammation, and impaired autophagy, are delineated here. Also, we explore potential therapeutic interventions for DKD, targeting lipotoxicity- and hypoxia-induced oxidative stress. These interventions focus on ameliorating the molecular pathways of lipid accumulation within the kidney and enhancing renal metabolism in the face of lipid overload or ameliorating subsequent oxidative stress. This review highlights the significance of lipotoxicity, renal hypoxia-induced oxidative stress, and its potential for therapeutic intervention in DKD.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health problem with rising incidence and prevalence. Among several pathogenetic mechanisms responsible for disease progression, lipid accumulation in the kidney parenchyma might drive inflammation and fibrosis, as has been described in fatty liver diseases. Lipids and their metabolites have several important structural and functional roles, as they are constituents of cell and organelle membranes, serve as signalling molecules and are used for energy production. However, although lipids can be stored in lipid droplets to maintain lipid homeostasis, lipid accumulation can become pathogenic. Understanding the mechanisms linking kidney parenchymal lipid accumulation to CKD of metabolic or non-metabolic origin is challenging, owing to the tremendous variety of lipid species and their functional diversity across different parenchymal cells. Nonetheless, multiple research reports have begun to emphasize the effect of dysregulated kidney lipid metabolism in CKD progression. For example, altered cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism contribute to glomerular and tubular cell injury. Newly developed lipid-targeting agents are being tested in clinical trials in CKD, raising expectations for further therapeutic development in this field.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are metabolically active organelles that are known for exerting oxidative metabolism, but the precise mechanism remains unclear in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Here, we used proteomics to uncover a correlation between the antioxidant protein disulfide-bond A oxidoreductase-like protein (DsbA-L) and peroxisomal function. In vivo, renal tubular injury, oxidative stress, and cell apoptosis in high-fat diet plus streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice were significantly increased, and these changes were accompanied by a "ghost" peroxisomal phenotype, which was further aggravated in DsbA-L-deficient diabetic mice. In vitro, the overexpression of DsbA-L in peroxisomes could improve peroxisomal phenotype and function, reduce oxidative stress and cell apoptosis induced by high glucose (HG, 30 mM) and palmitic acid (PA, 250 μM), but this effect was reversed by 3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole (3-AT, a catalase inhibitor). Mechanistically, DsbA-L regulated the activity of catalase by binding to it, thereby reducing peroxisomal leakage and proteasomal degradation of peroxisomal matrix proteins induced by HG and PA. Additionally, the expression of DsbA-L in renal tubules of patients with DN significantly decreased and was positively correlated with peroxisomal function. Taken together, these results highlight an important role of DsbA-L in ameliorating tubular injury in DN by improving peroxisomal function.

Abstract
(1) In this study we determined the effect of long-term selenomethionine administration on the oxidative stress level and changes in antioxidant protein/enzyme activity; mRNA expression; and the levels of iron, zinc, and copper. (2) Experiments were performed on 4-6-week-old BALB/c mice, which were given selenomethionine (0.4 mg Se/kg b.w.) solution for 8 weeks. The element concentration was determined via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. mRNA expression of SelenoP, Cat, and Sod1 was quantified using real-time quantitative reverse transcription. Malondialdehyde content and catalase activity were determined spectrophotometrically. (3) After long-term SeMet administration, the amount of Se increased by 12-fold in mouse blood, 15-fold in the liver, and 42-fold in the brain, as compared to that in the control. Exposure to SeMet decreased amounts of Fe and Cu in blood, but increased Fe and Zn levels in the liver and increased the levels of all examined elements in the brain. Se increased malondialdehyde content in the blood and brain but decreased it in liver. SeMet administration increased the mRNA expression of selenoprotein P, dismutase, and catalase, but decreased catalase activity in brain and liver. (4) Eight-week-long selenomethionine consumption elevated Se levels in the blood, liver, and especially in the brain and disturbed the homeostasis of Fe, Zn, and Cu. Moreover, Se induced lipid peroxidation in the blood and brain, but not in the liver. In response to SeMet exposure, significant up-regulation of the mRNA expression of catalase, superoxide dismutase 1, and selenoprotein P in the brain, and especially in the liver, was determined.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) have been reported to exhibit a protective effect on animal models of chronic kidney disease (CKD), the exact mechanisms involved require further investigation. This study aims to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms of BMMSCs in inhibiting ferroptosis and preventing an Adriamycin (ADR)-induced CKD injury. METHODS A rat model of long-term CKD induced through the injection of ADR administered twice weekly via the tail vein was used in this study. After BMMSCs were systemically administered through the renal artery, pathological staining, western blotting, ELISA, and transmission electron microscopy were used to analyze ferroptosis. RESULTS Analyses of renal function and histopathological findings indicated that ADR-mediated renal dysfunction improved in response to the BMMSC treatment, which was also sufficient to mediate the partial reversal of renal injury and mitochondrial pathological changes. BMMSCs decreased the ferrous iron (Fe2+) and reactive oxygen species and elevated glutathione (GSH) and GSH peroxidase 4. Moreover, the BMMSC treatment activated the expression of ferroptosis-related regulator NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and inhibited Keap1 and p53 in CKD rat kidney tissues. CONCLUSIONS BMMSCs alleviate CKD, possibly resulting from the inhibition of kidney ferroptosis by regulating the Nrf2-Keap1/p53 pathway.

Abstract
Renal tubular damage plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), and one of the main pathological process associated with DKD in diabetic mice is the ferroptosis, a novel form of cell death caused by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Several researches suggested that empagliflozin may treat renal injury, but its effects on diabetic-related ferroptosis and underlying mechanisms were not fully elucidated. In this study, the influence of empagliflozin on renal injury was evaluated in vivo and in vitro in a mouse model and in high-glucose (HG) or Erastin-stimulated renal HK-2 cell line, respectively. Ferroptosis-related markers were assessed, including GSH, labile iron levels, and ferroptosis regulators by Western blot, qRT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. The level of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the fluorescence intensity of BODIPY probe indicated the level of lipid peroxidation. It was demonstrated that solute carrier family 7, member 11 (SLC7A11) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) were less expressed in renal biopsy samples from patients affected by DKD than in those from non-diabetic renal disease patients (NDRD), proving the ferroptosis of tubular epithelial cells in case of DKD. Furthermore, empagliflozin markedly decreased the ferroptosis impairment in DKD mice, as well as in HG model of HK-2 cells. Our investigations showed the ability of empagliflozin to suppress ferroptosis was partially countered by AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor, which led to a reduction of the nuclear translocation of the antioxidant transcription factor NFE2-related factor 2 (NRF2) and downregulation of target genes such as GPX4, ferritin heavy chain 1 (FTH1), and SLC7A11, while AMPK agonists were responsible for the enhancement of the protective effects of empagliflozin. Taken together, our findings showed that empagliflozin may prevent the development of ferroptosis by promoting the AMPK-mediated NRF2 activation pathway, providing important insights for possible novel treatment approaches for DKD.

Abstract
During the last three decades many mouse lines were created or identified that are deficient in one or more peroxisomal functions. Different methodologies were applied to obtain global, hypomorph, cell type selective, inducible, and knockin mice. Whereas some models closely mimic pathologies in patients, others strongly deviate or no human counterpart has been reported. Often, mice, apparently endowed with a stronger transcriptional adaptation, have to be challenged with dietary additions or restrictions in order to trigger phenotypic changes. Depending on the inactivated peroxisomal protein, several approaches can be taken to validate the loss-of-function. Here, an overview is given of the available mouse models and their most important characteristics.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia, with absolute insulin deficiency or insulin resistance as the main cause, and causes damage to various target organs including the heart, kidney and neurovascular. In terms of the pathological and physiological mechanisms of DM, oxidative stress is one of the main mechanisms leading to DM and is an important link between DM and its complications. Oxidative stress is a pathological phenomenon resulting from an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the scavenging of antioxidant systems. The main site of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is the mitochondria, which are also the main organelles damaged. In a chronic high glucose environment, impaired electron transport chain within the mitochondria leads to the production of ROS, prompts increased proton leakage and altered mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), which in turn releases cytochrome c (cyt-c), leading to apoptosis. This subsequently leads to a vicious cycle of impaired clearance by the body's antioxidant system, impaired transcription and protein synthesis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), which is responsible for encoding mitochondrial proteins, and impaired DNA repair systems, contributing to mitochondrial dysfunction. This paper reviews the dysfunction of mitochondria in the environment of high glucose induced oxidative stress in the DM model, and looks forward to providing a new treatment plan for oxidative stress based on mitochondrial dysfunction.

Diabetes Metab J 2022; 46:829-842. [PMID: 35746892 PMCID: PMC9723204 DOI: 10.4093/dmj.2021.0274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been increasing in association with the epidemic of obesity and diabetes. Peroxisomes are single membrane-enclosed organelles that play a role in the metabolism of lipid and reactive oxygen species. The present study examined the role of peroxisomes in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced NAFLD using fenofibrate, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) agonist. METHODS Eight-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were fed either a normal diet or HFD for 12 weeks, and fenofibrate (50 mg/kg/day) was orally administered along with the initiation of HFD. RESULTS HFD-induced liver injury as measured by increased alanine aminotransferase, inflammation, oxidative stress, and lipid accumulation was effectively prevented by fenofibrate. Fenofibrate significantly increased the expression of peroxisomal genes and proteins involved in peroxisomal biogenesis and function. HFD-induced attenuation of peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation was also significantly restored by fenofibrate, demonstrating the functional significance of peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation. In Ppara deficient mice, fenofibrate failed to maintain peroxisomal biogenesis and function in HFD-induced liver injury. CONCLUSION The present data highlight the importance of PPARα-mediated peroxisomal fitness in the protective effect of fenofibrate against NAFLD.

Abstract
Renal fibrosis is a common pathway toward chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is the main pathological predecessor for end-stage renal disease; thus, preventing progressive CKD and renal fibrosis is essential to reducing their consequential morbidity and mortality. Emerging evidence has connected renal fibrosis to metabolic reprogramming; abnormalities in energy metabolism pathways, such as glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and lipid metabolism, are known to cause diseases of diverse etiologies. Cytokine interventions in affected metabolic pathways may significantly reduce the degree of fibrosis, highlighting therapeutic targets for drug development for renal fibrosis. Here, we discuss the relationship between glycolysis, lipid metabolism, mitochondrial and peroxisome dysfunction, and renal fibrosis in detail and propose that targeted therapies for specific metabolic pathways are expected to represent the next generation of treatments for renal fibrosis.

Abstract
1,3-Dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) is a representative chloropropane environmental contaminant with multiple toxicities. Ferroptosis is a novel iron-dependent form of regulated cell death that is closely associated with the accumulation of lipid peroxides, Fe2+ and reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we found that 1,3-DCP could induce mouse liver injury via ferroptosis. Administrating of C57BL/6J mice with 12.5, 25, and 50 mg/kg 1,3-DCP for 4 weeks via oral gavage, the data showed that 1,3-DCP exposure led to the pathological changes in mouse livers, remarkably induced accumulation of malondialdehyde (MDA) and Iron, reduction of glutathione (GSH), and changed in the expression of ferroptosis marker proteins glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and acyl-CoA synthetase-4 (ACSL4). Then, we also proved the results with HepG2 cells in vitro. The data showed that treatment 1,3-DCP significantly triggered the ferroptosis in vitro. Furthermore, we found that the ferroptosis-related signal pathways were significantly activated in mice livers and HepG2 cells in response to 1,3-DCP exposure. The data showed that 1,3-DCP induced ferroptosis by inhibiting nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) translocation into nuclear and thereby suppressing the expression of its downstream target proteins including GPX4, ferritin heavy chain (FTH), ferroportin (FPN), cystine/glutamate transporter xCT (SLC7A11), and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1). Taken together, our findings confirmed that 1,3-DCP induced ferroptosis via the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway in hepatocytes. Our works provide new toxicity mechanisms of 1,3-DCP with ferroptosis on hepatocytes injury.

Abstract
More than 800 million people suffer from kidney disease. Genetic studies and follow-up animal models and cell biological experiments indicate the key role of proximal tubule metabolism. Kidneys have one of the highest mitochondrial densities. Mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial fusion and fission, and mitochondrial recycling, such as mitophagy are critical for proper mitochondrial function. Mitochondrial dysfunction can lead to an energetic crisis, orchestrate different types of cell death (apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis), and influence cellular calcium levels and redox status. Collectively, mitochondrial defects in renal tubules contribute to epithelial atrophy, inflammation, or cell death, orchestrating kidney disease development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peroxisomes are single membrane-bound organelles named for their role in hydrogen peroxide production and catabolism. However, their cellular functions extend well beyond reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism and include fatty acid oxidation of unique substrates that cannot be catabolized in mitochondria, and synthesis of ether lipids and bile acids. Metabolic functions of peroxisomes involve crosstalk with other organelles, including mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, lipid droplets and lysosomes. Emerging studies suggest that peroxisomes are important regulators of energy homeostasis and that disruption of peroxisomal functions influences the risk for obesity and the associated metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes and hepatic steatosis. SCOPE OF REVIEW Here, we focus on the role of peroxisomes in ether lipid synthesis, β-oxidation and ROS metabolism, given that these functions have been most widely studied and have physiologically relevant implications in systemic metabolism and obesity. Efforts are made to mechanistically link these cellular and systemic processes. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Circulating plasmalogens, a form of ether lipids, have been identified as inversely correlated biomarkers of obesity. Ether lipids influence metabolic homeostasis through multiple mechanisms, including regulation of mitochondrial morphology and respiration affecting brown fat-mediated thermogenesis, and through regulation of adipose tissue development. Peroxisomal β-oxidation also affects metabolic homeostasis through generation of signaling molecules, such as acetyl-CoA and ROS that inhibit hydrolysis of stored lipids, contributing to development of hepatic steatosis. Oxidative stress resulting from increased peroxisomal β-oxidation-generated ROS in the context of obesity mediates β-cell lipotoxicity. A better understanding of the roles peroxisomes play in regulating and responding to obesity and its complications will provide new opportunities for their treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of hirudin in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). METHOD Cytoscape software was used to analyze the network between hirudin targets and active components in the treatment of DKD. The biological function and mechanism of effective targets of hirudin for DKD treatment were analyzed by the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) database. Molecular docking technology was used to simulate the docking of key targets, and the DKD rat model was used to verify the first 4 key targets with high "Hydrogen number" among the top 10 targets verified by molecular docking. RESULTS Total of 12334 DKD targets were screened in GeneCards, OMIM and other databases, Hirudin and DKD had 247 common target genes, and the protein interaction network got 2115 edges. The DAVID database was used for the Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis, confirming that hirudin in treatment of DKD involves multiple signaling pathways such as the forkhead box O signaling pathway, the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-protein kinase B signaling pathway, the vascular endothelial-derived growth factor signaling pathway and other signaling pathways. The top ten key targets of hirudin in treatment of DKD were verified by molecular docking. Animal experiments showed that hirudin could decrease the expression of caspase-3 in renal tissue of DKD rats, and increase the expression of RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase, Catalase, and Heat shock protein HSP 90-alpha in renal tissue of DKD rats. CONCLUSION This study preliminarily reveals that hirudin treats DKD through multiple targets and pathways, and molecular docking and animal experiments indicates the feasibility of this study. Hirudin may be directly or indirectly involved in the regulation of cell metabolism, oxidative stress and other mechanisms in the treatment of DKD, which will lay the foundation for future molecular biological experiments of hirudin in the treatment of DKD.

Effect of Selenium on the Iron Homeostasis and Oxidative Damage in Brain and Liver of Mice. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11071216.

Abstract
Selenium is an essential trace element that maintains normal brain function, mainly due its antioxidant properties. Although the amount of Se in the body is tightly regulated by the liver, both an excess of and deficiency in Se can modulate the cellular redox status and affect the homeostasis of other essential elements for both humans and animals. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of inorganic selenium excess on oxidative stress and iron homeostasis in brain and liver of laboratory BALB/c mice, which were supplemented with Na2SeO3 solution (0.2 mg and 0.4 mg Se/kg body weight) for 8 weeks. The content of the lipid peroxidation product malondialdehyde and antioxidant enzyme catalase activity/gene expression were used as markers of oxidative damage and were evaluated by spectrophotometric assays. Selenium and iron concentrations were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Catalase gene expression was analyzed by qRT-PCR and ΔΔCt methods. Our results showed that doses of 0.2 mg Se and 0.4 mg Se caused a relatively low accumulation of Se in the brain of mice; however, it induced a 10-fold increase in its accumulation in the liver and also increased iron accumulation in both tested organs. Both doses of Se increased the content of malondialdehyde as well as decreased catalase activity in the liver, while the 0.4 mg Se dose has also activated catalase gene expression. Brain of mice exposed to 0.2 mg Se showed reduced lipid peroxidation; however, the exposure to 0.4 mg of Se increased the catalase activity as well as gene expression. One may conclude that exposure to both doses of Se caused the accumulation of this micronutrient in mice brain and liver and have also provided a disrupting effect on the levels of iron. Both doses of Se have triggered oxidative liver damage. In the brain, the effect of Se was dose dependent, where −0.2 mg of Se provided antioxidant activity, which was observed through a decrease in lipid peroxidation. On the contrary, the 0.4 mg dose increased brain catalase activity as well as gene expression, which may have contributed to maintaining brain lipid peroxidation at the control level.

Abstract
Complex forms of diabetes are the ultimate common pathway involving multiple genetic variations and multiple environmental factors. Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is classified as complex diabetes. Varying degrees of insulin deficiency and tissue insulin resistance are two key links to T2DM. The islet β cell dysfunction plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of T2DM. The decompensation of the islet β cell to insulin resistance is a common mechanism leading to the pathogenesis of T2DM. Available data show that genetic factors mainly affect cell function. At present, a number of susceptibility genes related to T2DM have been reported at home and abroad. In this study, the diabetes-related genes in the case of early-onset diabetes with a significant family history were examined, and our results showed the presence of the intron mutations of catalase (CAT) gene and hepatocyte nuclear factor 1β (HNF1β) gene. The patient enrolled in this study was observed and analyzed, thus, increasing further understanding of the genes associated with diabetes and exploring the pathogenesis of diabetes from the molecular level. This is significant for guiding the prevention, treatment, and prognosis evaluation of diabetes.

Abstract
Background: The absence of efficient inhibitors for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) progression reflects the gaps in our understanding of DKD molecular pathogenesis. Methods: A comprehensive proteomic analysis was performed on the glomeruli and kidney cortex of diabetic mice with the subsequent validation of findings in human biopsies and omics datasets, aiming to better understand the underlying molecular biology of early DKD development and progression. Results: LC–MS/MS was employed to analyze the kidney proteome of 2 DKD models: Ins2Akita (early and late DKD) and db/db mice (late DKD). The abundance of detected proteins was defined. Pathway analysis of differentially expressed proteins in the early and late DKD versus the respective controls predicted dysregulation in DKD hallmarks (peroxisomal lipid metabolism and β-oxidation), supporting the functional relevance of the findings. Comparing the observed protein changes in early and late DKD, the consistent upregulation of 21 and downregulation of 18 proteins was detected. Among these were downregulated peroxisomal and upregulated mitochondrial proteins. Tissue sections from 16 DKD patients were analyzed by IHC confirming our results. Conclusion: Our study shows an extensive differential expression of peroxisomal proteins in the early stages of DKD that persists regardless of the disease severity, providing new perspectives and potential markers of diabetic kidney dysfunction.

Kim J, Bai H. Peroxisomal Stress Response and Inter-Organelle Communication in Cellular Homeostasis and Aging. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:192. [PMID: 35204075 PMCID: PMC8868334 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11020192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2021] [Revised: 01/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Peroxisomes are key regulators of cellular and metabolic homeostasis. These organelles play important roles in redox metabolism, the oxidation of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs), and the biosynthesis of ether phospholipids. Given the essential role of peroxisomes in cellular homeostasis, peroxisomal dysfunction has been linked to various pathological conditions, tissue functional decline, and aging. In the past few decades, a variety of cellular signaling and metabolic changes have been reported to be associated with defective peroxisomes, suggesting that many cellular processes and functions depend on peroxisomes. Peroxisomes communicate with other subcellular organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and lysosomes. These inter-organelle communications are highly linked to the key mechanisms by which cells surveil defective peroxisomes and mount adaptive responses to protect them from damages. In this review, we highlight the major cellular changes that accompany peroxisomal dysfunction and peroxisomal inter-organelle communication through membrane contact sites, metabolic signaling, and retrograde signaling. We also discuss the age-related decline of peroxisomal protein import and its role in animal aging and age-related diseases. Unlike other organelle stress response pathways, such as the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the ER and mitochondria, the cellular signaling pathways that mediate stress responses to malfunctioning peroxisomes have not been systematically studied and investigated. Here, we coin these signaling pathways as "peroxisomal stress response pathways". Understanding peroxisomal stress response pathways and how peroxisomes communicate with other organelles are important and emerging areas of peroxisome research.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-δ-mediated upregulation of catalase helps to reduce ultraviolet B-induced cellular injury in dermal fibroblasts. J Dermatol Sci 2021; 103:167-175. [PMID: 34420848 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdermsci.2021.08.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 07/20/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies suggested that the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-δ plays an essential role in cellular responses against oxidative stress. OBJECTIVE To investigate how PPAR-δ elicits cellular responses against oxidative stress in primary human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) exposed to ultraviolet B (UVB). METHODS The present study was undertaken in HDFs by performing real-time polymerase chain reaction, gene silencing, cytotoxicity and reporter gene assay, analyses for catalase and reactive oxygen species, and immunoblot analyses. RESULTS The PPAR-δ activator GW501516 upregulated expression of catalase and this upregulation was attenuated by PPAR-δ-targeting siRNA. GW501516-activated PPAR-δ induced catalase promoter activity through a direct repeat 1 response element. Mutation of this response element completely abrogated transcriptional activation, indicating that this site is a novel type of PPAR-δ response element. In addition, GW501516-activated PPAR-δ counteracted the reductions in activity and expression of catalase induced by UVB irradiation. These recovery effects were significantly attenuated in the presence of PPAR-δ-targeting siRNA or the specific PPAR-δ antagonist GSK0660. GW501516-activated PPAR-δ also protected HDFs from cellular damage triggered by UVB irradiation, and this PPAR-δ-mediated reduction of cellular damage was reversed by the catalase inhibitor or catalase-targeting siRNA. These effects of catalase blockade were positively correlated with accumulation of reactive oxygen species in HDFs exposed to UVB. Furthermore, GW501516-activated PPAR-δ targeted peroxisomal hydrogen peroxide through catalase in UVB-irradiated HDFs. CONCLUSION The gene encoding catalase is a target of PPAR-δ, and this novel catalase-mediated pathway plays a critical role in the cellular response elicited by PPAR-δ against oxidative stress.

The Kidney-Related Effects of Polystyrene Microplastics on Human Kidney Proximal Tubular Epithelial Cells HK-2 and Male C57BL/6 Mice. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVES 2021; 129:57003. [PMID: 33956507 PMCID: PMC8101928 DOI: 10.1289/ehp7612] [Citation(s) in RCA: 104] [Impact Index Per Article: 34.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2020] [Revised: 03/19/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding the epidemic of chronic kidney disease of uncertain etiology may be critical for health policies and public health responses. Recent studies have shown that microplastics (MPs) contaminate our food chain and accumulate in the gut, liver, kidney, muscle, and so on. Humans manufacture many plastics-related products. Previous studies have indicated that particles of these products have several effects on the gut and liver. Polystyrene (PS)-MPs (PS-MPs) induce several responses, such as oxidative stress, and affect living organisms. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of PS-MPs in kidney cells in vitro and in vivo. METHODS PS-MPs were evaluated in human kidney proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells) and male C57BL/6 mice. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, inflammation, and autophagy were analyzed in kidney cells. In vivo, we evaluated biomarkers of kidney function, kidney ultrastructure, muscle mass, and grip strength, and urine protein levels, as well as the accumulation of PS-MPs in the kidney tissue. RESULTS Uptake of PS-MPs at different concentrations by HK-2 cells resulted in higher levels of mitochondrial ROS and the mitochondrial protein Bad. Cells exposed to PS-MPs had higher ER stress and markers of inflammation. MitoTEMPO, which is a mitochondrial ROS antioxidant, mitigated the higher levels of mitochondrial ROS, Bad, ER stress, and specific autophagy-related proteins seen with PS-MP exposure. Furthermore, cells exposed to PS-MPs had higher protein levels of LC3 and Beclin 1. PS-MPs also had changes in phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and protein kinase B (AKT)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (mTOR) signaling pathways. In an in vivo study, PS-MPs accumulated and the treated mice had more histopathological lesions in the kidneys and higher levels of ER stress, inflammatory markers, and autophagy-related proteins in the kidneys after PS-MPs treatment by oral gavage. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that PS-MPs caused mitochondrial dysfunction, ER stress, inflammation, and autophagy in kidney cells and accumulated in HK-2 cells and in the kidneys of mice. These results suggest that long-term PS-MPs exposure may be a risk factor for kidney health. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP7612.

Intermittent hypoxia preconditioning protects WRL68 cells against oxidative injury: Involvement of the PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy regulated by nuclear respiratory factor 1. Mitochondrion 2021; 59:113-122. [PMID: 33933661 DOI: 10.1016/j.mito.2021.04.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2020] [Revised: 04/04/2021] [Accepted: 04/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
The protective effect of intermittent hypoxia (IH) preconditioning against oxidative injury in hepatic cells was investigated and the involvement of the PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy regulated by nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF-1) was evaluated. The results showed that IH preconditioning protected HepG2 cells against oxygen and glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/Rep)-induced injury and protected WRL68 cells against H2O2 or AMA-induced oxidative injury. IH preconditioning up-regulated the protein level of NRF-1, PINK1, Parkin, and LC3 II, promoted the recruitment of the cytosolic Parkin, indicating the initiation of the PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy in WRL68 cells. When NRF-1 was down-regulated by NRF-1 specific shRNA, the protein level of PINK1 and Parkin as well as the mitophagy level were significantly decreased. After IH preconditioning, the protein level of PINK1 and the recruitment of Parkin in CCCP-treated group were significantly higher than that of the control group, indicating the increased mitophagy capacity. And the increased mitophagy capacity induced by IH preconditioning was also reduced by down-regulation of NRF-1. Furthermore, the protective effect of IH preconditioning against H2O2-induced oxidative injury in WRL68 cells was inhibited when NRF-1 or PINK1 was down-regulated by specific shRNA. Mitochondrial ROS generation may be responsible for the increased expression of NRF-1 induced by IH preconditioning. In conclusion, the PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy regulated by NRF-1 was involved in IH preconditioning-induced protective effect against oxidative cellular injury in hepatic cells.

Associations of Circulating Irisin with FNDC5 Expression in Fat and Muscle in Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetic Mice. Biomolecules 2021; 11:biom11020322. [PMID: 33672565 PMCID: PMC7924053 DOI: 10.3390/biom11020322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2021] [Revised: 02/16/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Irisin is an exercise-induced myokine, suggested to exert beneficial effects on metabolism. However, the studies on the regulation of irisin secretion and the expression of its precursor FNDC5 have shown conflicting data. The discrepancies among previous correlation studies in humans are related to the heterogeneity of the study population. The fact that irisin is not only a myokine but also an adipokine leads to the further complexity of the role of irisin in metabolic regulation. In this study, we examined the regulation of FNDC5 expression and irisin in circulation in both type 1 and type 2 diabetic mice, and their potential relationships with metabolic parameters. In streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetic mice, high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice and db/db mice, the circulating irisin as well as FNDC5 gene expression in subcutaneous fat was downregulated. Muscle FNDC5 expression was only significantly lower in STZ mice, and epididymal fat FNDC5 expression was unaltered. It is interesting to note that plasma irisin levels correlated positively with subcutaneous fat FNDC5 expression, but not epididymal fat or muscle. Moreover, both irisin levels and subcutaneous fat FNDC5 correlated negatively with markers of insulin resistance. These results suggest a regulatory role for subcutaneous fat-derived FNDC5/irisin in metabolic disease.

Abstract
Dermal fibroblasts are the main actor in many proteins’ secretion, including collagen, preserving skin function. Free radicals are involved in skin aging and damages involving different cellular components. The imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) amount and natural antioxidant enzymes negatively affects skin homeostasis. Natural compounds have recently emerged as a potential anti-aging tool in tissue regeneration. In the present paper we evaluated the antioxidant activity of white and red wines, considering their probable use, as raw materials, for the formulation of cosmetic products with anti-aging properties. We studied a method that would allow the removal of the alcoholic fraction of wines and determined their composition by LC-MS analysis. We then tested the possible cytotoxic effects of red and white wines on fibroblasts by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium (MTT) assay, and their antioxidant activity by the catalase activity test in stressing conditions. Finally, we evaluated their anti-aging potential through the β-galactosidase colorimetric assay. Our results showed that wine extracts exhibit a remarkable antioxidant and anti-aging activity, especially on cells exposed to a marked stressful event. These properties could suggest their possible application as cosmetical products for skin regeneration.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species are highly implicated in kidney injuries that include acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, hypertensive nephropathy, and diabetic nephropathy. Therefore, antioxidant agents are promising therapeutic strategies for kidney diseases. Catalytic antioxidants are defined as small molecular mimics of antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, and some of them function as potent detoxifiers of lipid peroxides and peroxynitrite. Several catalytic antioxidants have been demonstrated to be effective in a variety of in vitro and in vivo disease models that are associated with oxidative stress, including kidney diseases. This review summarizes the evidence for the role of antioxidant enzymes in kidney diseases, the classifications of catalytic antioxidants, and their current applications to kidney diseases.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is now considered the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. In diabetes, the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and iron overload are important determinants that promote the occurrence of DN. However, the underlying mechanism of how they cause diabetic kidney damage remains unclear. Ferroptosis, characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, provided us with a new idea to explore the progression of DN. Iron overload, reduced antioxidant capability, massive ROS and lipid peroxidation were detected in the kidneys of streptozotocin-induced DBA/2J diabetic mice and high-glucose cultured human renal proximal tubular (HK-2) cells, which were the symbolic changes of ferroptosis. Furthermore, the characteristic mitochondrial morphological changes of ferroptosis were observed in high glucose cultured cells. Additional treatment of Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) in DN models significantly rescued these changes and alleviated the renal pathological injuries in diabetic mice. Besides, the decreased NFE2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) was observed in DN models. The specific knockdown of Nrf2 increased the sensitivity of cells to ferroptosis in the high glucose condition. In Nrf2 knockdown cells, up-regulating Nrf2 by treating with fenofibrate improved the situation of ferroptosis, which was verified in RSL-3 induced cells. Moreover, the ferroptosis-related changes were inhibited by increasing Nrf2 in fenofibrate treated diabetic mice, which delayed the progression of DN. Collectively, we demonstrated that ferroptosis was involved in the development of DN, and up-regulating Nrf2 by treating with fenofibrate inhibited diabetes-related ferroptosis, delaying the progression of DN. Our research revealed the development mechanism of DN from a new perspective, and provide a new approach delaying the progression of DN.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the most common cause of severe renal disease worldwide and the single strongest predictor of mortality in diabetes patients. Kidney steatosis has emerged as a critical trigger in the pathogenesis of DKD; however, the molecular mechanism of renal lipotoxicity remains largely unknown. Our recent studies in genetic mouse models, human cell lines, and well-characterized patient cohorts have identified serine/threonine protein kinase 25 (STK25) as a critical regulator of ectopic lipid storage in several metabolic organs prone to diabetic damage. Here, we demonstrate that overexpression of STK25 aggravates renal lipid accumulation and exacerbates structural and functional kidney injury in a mouse model of DKD. Reciprocally, inhibiting STK25 signaling in mice ameliorates diet-induced renal steatosis and alleviates the development of DKD-associated pathologies. Furthermore, we find that STK25 silencing in human kidney cells protects against lipid deposition, as well as oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Together, our results suggest that STK25 regulates a critical node governing susceptibility to renal lipotoxicity and that STK25 antagonism could mitigate DKD progression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study was conducted to examine antidiabetic effects of Artemisia absinthium ethanolic extract [A. absinthium] and to investigate its effects on oxidative stress markers and the expression of TLR4, S100A4, Bax and Bcl-2 genes in the kidney of STZ-induced diabetic rats. METHODS Thirty six rats (weight 200-250 g) were randomly divided into diabetes and control groups. Induction of diabetes was performed using STZ (55 mg/kg.bw). Biochemical parameters and oxidative stress markers (SOD and MDA) were measured using spectrophotometry after 60 days of treatment. The expression of TLR4, S100A4, Bax and Bcl-2 were analyzed by real-time PCR. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni post hoc test were used to compare the data. RESULTS Diabetes significantly impairs the serum fasting blood glucose (FBG), lipid profile, urea, creatinine and albumin. At the end of treatment with A. absinthium extract, these parameters were close to the normal range. The results showed that the A. absinthium extract significantly decreased the kidney expression of TLR4, S100A4, Bax and increased the expression of Bcl-2 and improved oxidative stress markers (SOD and MDA) in the kidney tissues of treated rats. Also, all of these beneficial effects of the A. absinthium were dose-dependent. CONCLUSIONS The extract of A. absinthium possesses antidiabetic effects. A. absinthium decreased the expression of TLR4, S100A4, Bax and increased the expression of Bcl-2 and improved oxidative stress. Therefore, this herbal extract can be used as an adjuvant treatment for diabetic complications.

Redox Biol 2020; 37:101749. [PMID: 33080438 PMCID: PMC7575809 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2020.101749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2020] [Revised: 10/03/2020] [Accepted: 10/04/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Obesity is regarded as an abnormal expansion and excessive accumulation of fat mass in white adipose tissue. The involvement of oxidative stress in the development of obesity is still unclear. Although mainly present in peroxisomes, catalase scavenges intracellular H2O2 at toxic levels. Therefore, we used catalase-knockout (CKO) mice to elucidate the involvement of excessive H2O2 in the development of obesity. CKO mice with C57BL/6J background gained more weight with higher body fat mass with age than age-matched wild-type (WT) mice fed with either chow or high-fat diets. This phenomenon was attenuated by concomitant treatment with the antioxidants, melatonin or N-acetyl cysteine. Moreover, CKO mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) appeared to differentiate to adipocytes more easily than WT MEFs, showing increased H2O2 concentrations. Using 3T3-L1-derived adipocytes transfected with catalase-small interfering RNA, we confirmed that a more prominent lipogenesis occurred in catalase-deficient cells than in WT cells. Catalase-deficient adipocytes presented increased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 4 (NOX4) expression but decreased adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) expression. Treatment with a NOX4 inhibitor or AMPK activator rescued the propensity for obesity of CKO mice. These findings suggest that excessive H2O2 and related oxidative stress increase body fat mass via both adipogenesis and lipogenesis. Manipulating NOX4 and AMPK in white adipocytes may be a therapeutic tool against obesity augmented by oxidative stress.

Abstract
In recent decades, the role of the peroxisome in physiology and disease conditions has become increasingly important. Together with the mitochondria and other cellular organelles, peroxisomes support key metabolic platforms for the oxidation of various fatty acids and regulate redox conditions. In addition, peroxisomes contribute to the biosynthesis of essential lipid molecules, such as bile acid, cholesterol, docosahexaenoic acid, and plasmalogen. Therefore, the quality control mechanisms that regulate peroxisome biogenesis and degradation are important for cellular homeostasis. Current evidence indicates that peroxisomal function is often reduced or dysregulated in various human disease conditions, such as neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we review the recent progress that has been made toward understanding the quality control systems that regulate peroxisomes and their pathological implications. Systematic studies of cellular organelles called peroxisomes are needed to determine their influence on the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Peroxisomes play vital roles in biological processes including the metabolism of lipids and reactive oxygen species, and the synthesis of key molecules, including bile acid and cholesterol. Disruption to peroxisome activity has been linked to metabolic disorders, cancers and neurodegenerative conditions. Dong-Hyung Cho at Kyungpook National University in Daegu, South Korea, and coworkers reviewed current understanding of peroxisome regulation, with a particular focus on brain disorders. The quantity and activity of peroxisomes alter according to environmental and stress cues. The brain is lipid-rich, and even small changes in fatty acid composition may influence neuronal function. Changes in fatty acid metabolism are found in early stage Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, but whether peroxisome disruption is responsible requires clarification.

Abstract
Most of peroxisomal matrix proteins including a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-decomposing enzyme, catalase, are imported in a peroxisome-targeting signal type-1 (PTS1)-dependent manner. However, little is known about regulation of the membrane-bound protein import machinery. Here, we report that Pex14, a central component of the protein translocation complex in peroxisomal membrane, is phosphorylated in response to oxidative stresses such as H2O2 in mammalian cells. The H2O2-induced phosphorylation of Pex14 at Ser232 suppresses peroxisomal import of catalase in vivo and selectively impairs in vitro the interaction of catalase with the Pex14-Pex5 complex. A phosphomimetic mutant Pex14-S232D elevates the level of cytosolic catalase, but not canonical PTS1-proteins, conferring higher cell resistance to H2O2. We thus suggest that the H2O2-induced phosphorylation of Pex14 spatiotemporally regulates peroxisomal import of catalase, functioning in counteracting action against oxidative stress by the increase of cytosolic catalase.

Abstract
Contingent upon concentration, reactive oxygen species (ROS) influence cancer evolution in apparently contradictory ways, either initiating/stimulating tumorigenesis and supporting transformation/proliferation of cancer cells or causing cell death. To accommodate high ROS levels, tumor cells modify sulfur-based metabolism, NADPH generation, and the activity of antioxidant transcription factors. During initiation, genetic changes enable cell survival under high ROS levels by activating antioxidant transcription factors or increasing NADPH via the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). During progression and metastasis, tumor cells adapt to oxidative stress by increasing NADPH in various ways, including activation of AMPK, the PPP, and reductive glutamine and folate metabolism.

Abstract
Many metabolic diseases in fish are often associated with lowered peroxisomal fatty acid (FA) β-oxidation. However, the physiological role of peroxisomal FA oxidation in lipid metabolism in fish still remains unclear. In the present study, a specific peroxisomal FA β-oxidation inhibitor, 10,12-tricosadiynoic acid (TDYA), was used to investigate the effects of impaired peroxisomal β-oxidation on growth performance, health status, and lipid metabolism in Nile tilapia. The results showed that the dietary TDYA treatment did not affect weight gain, but significantly decreased peroxisomal β-oxidation in the liver, and increased body fat accumulation. The fish with impaired peroxisomal β-oxidation exhibited higher contents of serum lipid and peroxidation products, and alanine aminotransferase activity, and significantly lowered hepatic activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase. The inhibited peroxisomal β-oxidation did not enhance mitochondrial β-oxidation activity, but compensatorily upregulated FA β-oxidation-related gene expression, and downregulated the gene expressions in lipolysis and lipogenesis. Taken together, TDYA treatment markedly induced lipid accumulation and hepatic oxidative damage via systemically depressing lipid catabolism and antioxidant capacity. Our findings reveal the pivotal roles of peroxisomal β-oxidation in maintaining health and lipid homeostasis in fish, and could be helpful in understanding metabolic diseases in fish.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are metabolic organelles involved in lipid metabolism and cellular redox balance. Peroxisomal function is central to fatty acid oxidation, ether phospholipid synthesis, bile acid synthesis, and reactive oxygen species homeostasis. Human disorders caused by genetic mutations in peroxisome genes have led to extensive studies on peroxisome biology. Peroxisomal defects are linked to metabolic dysregulation in diverse human diseases, such as neurodegeneration and age-related disorders, revealing the significance of peroxisome metabolism in human health. Cancer is a disease with metabolic aberrations. Despite the critical role of peroxisomes in cell metabolism, the functional effects of peroxisomes in cancer are not as well recognized as those of other metabolic organelles, such as mitochondria. In addition, the significance of peroxisomes in cancer is less appreciated than it is in degenerative diseases. In this review, I summarize the metabolic pathways in peroxisomes and the dysregulation of peroxisome metabolism in cancer. In addition, I discuss the potential of inactivating peroxisomes to target cancer metabolism, which may pave the way for more effective cancer treatment.

Abstract
The catabolic process that delivers cytoplasmic constituents to the lysosome for degradation, known as autophagy, is thought to act as a cytoprotective mechanism in response to stress or as a pathogenic process contributing towards cell death. Animal and human studies have shown that autophagy is substantially dysregulated in renal cells in diabetes, suggesting that activating autophagy could be a therapeutic intervention. However, under prolonged hyperglycaemia with impaired lysosome function, increased autophagy induction that exceeds the degradative capacity in cells could contribute toward autophagic stress or even the stagnation of autophagy, leading to renal cytotoxicity. Since lysosomal function is likely key to linking the dual cytoprotective and cytotoxic actions of autophagy, it is important to develop novel pharmacological agents that improve lysosomal function and restore autophagic flux. In this review, we first provide an overview of the autophagic-lysosomal pathway, particularly focusing on stages of lysosomal degradation during autophagy. Then, we discuss the role of adaptive autophagy and autophagic stress based on lysosomal function. More importantly, we focus on the role of autophagic stress induced by lysosomal dysfunction according to the pathogenic factors (including high glucose, advanced glycation end products (AGEs), urinary protein, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid overload) in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), respectively. Finally, therapeutic possibilities aimed at lysosomal restoration in DKD are introduced.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors reduce the risk of serious heart failure and adverse renal events, but the mechanisms that underlie this benefit are not understood. Treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors is distinguished by 2 intriguing features: ketogenesis and erythrocytosis. Both reflect the induction of a fasting-like and hypoxia-like transcriptional paradigm that is capable of restoring and maintaining cellular homeostasis and survival. In the face of perceived nutrient and oxygen deprivation, cells activate low-energy sensors, which include sirtuin-1 (SIRT1), AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs; especially HIF-2α); these enzymes and transcription factors are master regulators of hundreds of genes and proteins that maintain cellular homeostasis. The activation of SIRT1 (through its effects to promote gluconeogenesis and fatty acid oxidation) drives ketogenesis, and working in concert with AMPK, it can directly inhibit inflammasome activation and maintain mitochondrial capacity and stability. HIFs act to promote oxygen delivery (by stimulating erythropoietin and erythrocytosis) and decrease oxygen consumption. The activation of SIRT1, AMPK, and HIF-2α enhances autophagy, a lysosome-dependent degradative pathway that removes dangerous constituents, particularly damaged mitochondria and peroxisomes, which are major sources of oxidative stress and triggers of cellular dysfunction and death. SIRT1 and AMPK also act on sodium transport mechanisms to reduce intracellular sodium concentrations. It is interesting that type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity, chronic heart failure, and chronic kidney failure are characterized by the accumulation of intracellular glucose and lipid intermediates that are perceived by cells as indicators of energy overabundance. The cells respond by downregulating SIRT1, AMPK, and HIF-2α, thus leading to an impairment of autophagic flux and acceleration of cardiomyopathy and nephropathy. SGLT2 inhibitors reverse this maladaptive signaling by triggering a state of fasting and hypoxia mimicry, which includes activation of SIRT1, AMPK, and HIF-2α, enhanced autophagic flux, reduced cellular stress, decreased sodium influx into cells, and restoration of mitochondrial homeostasis. This mechanistic framework clarifies the findings of large-scale randomized trials and the close association of ketogenesis and erythrocytosis with the cardioprotective and renoprotective benefits of these drugs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Findings of previous studies in the field of antioxidant defense system in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), diabetic nephropathy (DM) are limited and conflicting. Therefore, we evaluated the antioxidant defense system status in type 2 diabetes patients, diabetic nephropathy and healthy subjects in Iranian population. METHODS This population-based case-control study was conducted in 2019 and included 30 individuals with T2DM and 30 patients with DN, as the case groups and 30 healthy subjects for the control group. Individuals entered to the study for case group were diagnosed as T2DM patients based on fast glucose blood tests (FGB) (≥126 mg/dL) and HbA1 (≥6.5%). DN was defined based on these tests and macroalbuminuria (>300 mg/day). Serum was carefully separated and antioxidant defense system status was estimated. Dietary intakes were evaluated by using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). RESULTS Energy intake in control group was higher than case groups; BMI was higher in the DN group compared to the other groups. Significantly higher levels of MDA were observed in T2DM patients compared to control group in crude model (1.255 vs. 1.079 nmol/L; P = 0.006). The same results were shown after adjustment for potential confounders (1.256 vs. 1.085 nmol/L; P = 0.022). Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) was less in case groups compared with control group; level of catalase (CTL) and superoxide dismutase enzymes comparisons showed that DN patients had higher level than control group, but these associations were not significant. CONCLUSIONS We found that MDA levels were significantly higher in T2DM patients compared to control group. Level of TAC was less in case groups in comparison to controls. SOD and CTL levels were higher in DN compared to controls; these associations were not significant.

Evidences demonstrated that the effect on anti-proteinuria and renal protection of Chinese herbs combination with ACEi or ARB seemed to be better than ACEi or ARB alone. Astragaloside IV could decrease the urinary albumin excretion rate and could protect against renal injuries linking to its anti-oxidation ability. We aimed to investigate the effect of astragaloside IV combined with ACEi on diabetic nephropathy and to explore whether its underlying mechanism is dependent on anti-oxidation. 8-week-old male experiment mice were randomly assigned to five groups: lean wild type (wt) group, db/db group, db/db + astragaloside IV group, db/db + enalapril group, db/db + combination therapy with astragaloside IV and enalapril group. During the experiment, 24 hours urinary albumin, fasting glucose, body weight, and metabolic parameters were monitored in regular intervals. At the end of the study, tail blood pressure, serum H2O2, lipid, and liver function were measured and kidney histological injuries were evaluated. Results of the study indicated that combination therapy with astragaloside IV and ACEi further reduced 24 hours urinary albumin excretion rate, blood pressure, and body weight. Combination therapy reduced the foot process width, glomerular base membrane thickness, glomerular tuft cell proliferation, tubular cell atrophy, tubular base membrane thickness, and improved tubular cell proliferation. It modulated the body H2O2 metabolism and up-regulated the expression of the catalase in renal cortex. Astragaloside IV combined with ACEi exerted renal protective effects in db/db mice more significantly than their individual used. The mechanism possibly involved their synergistic effects on anti-oxidation.

Abstract
Quality control of peroxisomes is essential for cellular homeostasis. However, the mechanism underlying pexophagy is largely unknown. In this study, we identified HSPA9 as a novel pexophagy regulator. Downregulation of HSPA9 increased macroautophagy/autophagy but decreased the number of peroxisomes in vitro and in vivo. The loss of peroxisomes by HSPA9 depletion was attenuated in SQSTM1-deficient cells. In HSPA9-deficient cells, the level of peroxisomal reactive oxygen species (ROS) increased, while inhibition of ROS blocked pexophagy in HeLa and SH-SY5Y cells. Importantly, reconstitution of HSPA9 mutants found in Parkinson disease failed to rescue the loss of peroxisomes, whereas reconstitution with wild type inhibited pexophagy in HSPA9-depleted cells. Knockdown of Hsc70-5 decreased peroxisomes in Drosophila, and the HSPA9 mutants failed to rescue the loss of peroxisomes in Hsc70-5-depleted flies. Taken together, our findings suggest that the loss of HSPA9 enhances peroxisomal degradation by pexophagy.

Abstract
The mechanistic link between obesity and renal failure has been proposed to involve mitochondria reactive oxygen species generation and lipotoxicity. These pathological conditions make mitochondria of particular interest in the regulation of cell function and death by both apoptosis and autophagy. Therefore, this work was undertaken to investigate mitochondria function, autophagy, and apoptosis protein markers in the kidney from a rat model of intra-abdominal obesity and renal damage induced by a high-sucrose diet. Mitochondria from sucrose-fed (SF) kidneys in the presence of pyruvate-malate generated H2O2at a higher rate than from control (79.81 ± 4.98 vs. 65.84 ± 1.95 pmol·min−1·mg protein−1). With succinate, the release of H2O2was significantly higher compared with pyruvate-malate, and it remained higher in SF than in control mitochondria (146.4 ± 8.8 vs. 106.1 ± 5.9 pmol·min−1·mg protein−1). However, cytochrome c release from SF kidney mitochondria was lower than from control. In addition, cardiolipin, a mitochondria-specific phospholipid, was found increased in SF mitochondria due to the enhanced amount of both cardiolipin synthase and tafazzin. Cardiolipin was also found enriched with saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, which are less susceptible to peroxidative stress involved in cytochrome c release. Furthermore, beclin-1 and light chain 3-B, as autophagy protein markers, and caspase-9, as apoptosis protein marker, were found decreased in SF kidneys. These results suggest that the decline of autophagy protein markers and the lack of apoptosis process could be a pathological mechanism of cell dysfunction leading to the progression of renal disease in SF rats.

Abstract
Aims: Peroxisome is a critical organelle for fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and metabolism of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Increased oxidative stress in adipose tissue contributes to the development of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome in obesity. This study aimed to investigate the role of peroxisomal fitness in maintaining adipocyte function, which has been under-rated in the obesity research area. Results: Reduced peroxisomal gene expressions in white adipose tissue (WAT) of obese mice suggested a close correlation between peroxisomes and obesity. Peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5 siRNA increased cellular ROS and inflammatory mediators in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. On the contrary, hydrogen peroxide or tumor necrosis factor-α treatment significantly decreased biogenesis- and function-related peroxisomal proteins, suggesting a positive feedback loop of ROS/inflammation and peroxisomal dysfunction. Correspondingly, catalase (a major peroxisomal antioxidant)-knockout mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD) exhibited suppressed peroxisomal proteins along with increased oxidative stress and accelerated obesity. In response to fenofibrate (a peroxisomal proliferator) treatment, WAT of HFD-fed wild-type mice showed not only increases in peroxisomal biogenesis and FAO but also attenuated features of adipocyte dysfunction and obesity. However, these results were not observed in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha null obese mice. Innovation: Impaired peroxisomal fitness enhanced oxidative stress and inflammation in adipocytes, which exacerbates obesity. Conclusion: Adipose tissue peroxisomal homeostasis plays an important role in attenuating the features of obesity, and it can be a potential therapeutic target of obesity.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major problem for health systems being directly related to short and long-term morbidity and mortality. In the last years, the incidence of AKI has been increasing. AKI and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are closely interconnected, with a growing rate of CKD linked to repeated and severe episodes of AKI. AKI and CKD can occur also secondary to imbalanced oxidative stress (OS) reactions, inflammation, and apoptosis. The kidney is particularly sensitive to OS. OS is known as a crucial pathogenetic factor in cellular damage, with a direct role in initiation, development, and progression of AKI. The aim of this review is to focus on the pathogenetic role of OS in AKI in order to gain a better understanding. We exposed the potential relationships between OS and the perturbation of renal function and we also presented the redox-dependent factors that can contribute to early kidney injury. In the last decades, promising advances have been made in understanding the pathophysiology of AKI and its consequences, but more studies are needed in order to develop new therapies that can address OS and oxidative damage in early stages of AKI. Methods We searched PubMed for relevant articles published up to May 2019. In this review we incorporated data from different types of studies, including observational and experimental, both in vivo and in vitro, studies that provided information about OS in the pathophysiology of AKI. Results The results show that OS plays a major key role in the initiation and development of AKI, providing the chance to find new targets that can be therapeutically addressed. Discussion Acute kidney injury represents a major health issue that is still not fully understood. Research in this area still provides new useful data that can help obtain a better management of the patient. OS represents a major focus point in many studies, and a better understanding of its implications in AKI might offer the chance to fight new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Aging is defined as changes in an organism over time. The proportion of the aged population is markedly increasing worldwide. The kidney, as an essential organ with a high energy requirement, is one of the most susceptible organs to aging. It is involved in glucose metabolism via gluconeogenesis, glucose filtration and reabsorption, and glucose utilization. Proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) depend on lipid metabolism to meet the high demand for ATP. Recent studies have shown that aging‐related kidney dysfunction is highly associated with metabolic changes in the kidney. Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma coactivator‐1 alpha (PGC‐1α), a transcriptional coactivator, plays a major role in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis, peroxisomal biogenesis, and glucose and lipid metabolism. PGC‐1α is abundant in tissues, including kidney PTECs, which demand high energy. Many in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that the activation of PGC‐1α by genetic or pharmacological intervention prevents telomere shortening and aging‐related changes in the skeletal muscle, heart, and brain. The activation of PGC‐1α can also prevent kidney dysfunction in various kidney diseases. Therefore, a better understanding of the effect of PGC‐1α activation in various organs on aging and kidney diseases may unveil a potential therapeutic strategy against kidney aging.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a non-radical reactive oxygen species generated during many (patho)physiological conditions, is currently universally recognized as an important mediator of redox-regulated processes. Depending on its spatiotemporal accumulation profile, this molecule may act as a signaling messenger or cause oxidative damage. The focus of this review is to comprehensively evaluate the evidence that peroxisomes, organelles best known for their role in cellular lipid metabolism, also serve as hubs in the H2O2 signaling network. We first briefly introduce the basic concepts of how H2O2 can drive cellular signaling events. Next, we outline the peroxisomal enzyme systems involved in H2O2 metabolism in mammals and reflect on how this oxidant can permeate across the organellar membrane. In addition, we provide an up-to-date overview of molecular targets and biological processes that can be affected by changes in peroxisomal H2O2 metabolism. Where possible, emphasis is placed on the molecular mechanisms and factors involved. From the data presented, it is clear that there are still numerous gaps in our knowledge. Therefore, gaining more insight into how peroxisomes are integrated in the cellular H2O2 signaling network is of key importance to unravel the precise role of peroxisomal H2O2 production and scavenging in normal and pathological conditions.

Abstract
The Keap1-Nrf2-ARE pathway regulates the constitutive and inducible transcription of various genes that encode detoxification enzymes, antioxidant proteins and anti-inflammatory proteins and has pivotal roles in the defence against cellular oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of CPUY192018, a potent small-molecule inhibitor of the Keap1-Nrf2 protein-protein interaction (PPI), in renal inflammation. In human proximal tubular epithelial HK-2 cells, CPUY192018 treatment significantly increased Nrf2 protein level and Nrf2 nuclear translocation, which enhanced Nrf2-ARE transcription capacity and the downstream protein content in a Nrf2 dependent manner. In lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-challenged human HK-2 cells, CPUY192018 exhibited cytoprotective effects by enhancing the Nrf2-ARE regulated antioxidant system and diminished the LPS-induced inflammatory response by hindering the ROS-mediated activation of the NF-κB pathway. In the LPS-induced mouse model of chronic renal inflammation, by activating Nrf2, CPUY192018 treatment balanced renal oxidative stress and suppressed inflammatory responses. Hence, administration of CPUY192018 reduced kidney damage and ameliorated pathological alterations of the glomerulus. Taken together, our study suggested that small-molecule Keap1-Nrf2 PPI inhibitors can activate the Nrf2-based cytoprotective system and protect the kidney from inflammatory injury, raising a potential application of Keap1-Nrf2 PPI inhibitors in the treatment of inflammatory kidney disorders. CPUY192018 activated Nrf2-ARE pathway to protect against LPS-induced renal inflammation both in cells and in vivo. CPUY192018 also inhibited NF-κB involved inflammatory response both in cells and kidney. The development of Keap1-Nrf2 PPI inhibitors may create treatment options for kidney diseases with reduced off-target effects.
