RESUMEN

The developmental origins of healthy and disease (DOHaD) concept has demonstrated a higher rate of chronic diseases in the adult population of individuals whose mothers experienced severe maternal protein restriction (MPR). Using proteomic and in silico analyses, we investigated the lung proteomic profile of young and aged rats exposed to MPR during pregnancy and lactation. Our results demonstrated that MPR lead to structural and immune system pathways changes, and this outcome is coupled with a rise in the PI3k-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway, with increased MMP-2 activity, and CD8 expression in the early life, with long-term effects with aging. This led to the identification of commonly or inversely differentially expressed targets in early life and aging, revealing dysregulated pathways related to the immune system, stress, muscle contraction, tight junctions, and hemostasis. We identified three miRNAs (miR-378a-3p, miR-378a-5p, let-7a-5p) that regulate four proteins (ACTN4, PPIA, HSPA5, CALM1) as probable epigenetic lung marks generated by MPR. In conclusion, MPR impacts the lungs early in life, increasing the possibility of long-lasting negative outcomes for respiratory disorders in the offspring.

RESUMEN

Oxidative stress is a major pathogenic factor in many intestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC). The Nrf2 signaling pathway and mitophagy can reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and alleviate oxidative stress, but their relationship is unclear. Hydroxytyrosol (HT), a polyphenolic compound abundant in olive oil, has strong antioxidant activity and may help treat these diseases. We used pigs as a model to investigate HT's effect on intestinal oxidative damage and its mechanisms. Diquat (DQ) induced oxidative stress and impaired intestinal barrier function, which HT mitigated. Mechanistic studies in IPEC-J2 cells showed that HT protected against oxidative damage by activating the PI3K/Akt-Nrf2 signaling pathway and promoting mitophagy. Our study highlighted the synergistic relationship between Nrf2 and mitophagy in mediating HT's antioxidant effects. Inhibition studies confirmed that disrupting either pathway compromised HT's protective effects. Maintaining redox balance through Nrf2 and mitophagy is important for eliminating excess ROS. Nrf2 increases antioxidant enzymes to clear existing ROS, while mitophagy removes damaged mitochondria and reduces ROS generation. This study demonstrates that these pathways collaboratively modulate the antioxidant effects of HT, with neither being dispensable. Targeting Nrf2 and mitophagy could be a promising strategy for treating oxidative stress-related intestinal diseases, with HT as a potential treatment.

RESUMEN

Hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) is a destructive disease with high mortality, incidence, and disability. Asiaticoside (AC) is a triterpenoid derivative that has demonstrated to exert a protective effect on neuron and blood vessel. To investigate the function and potential mechanism of AC on HICH. Human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMECs) were treated with 20 U/mL thrombin for 24 h to establish the HICH model in vitro, and AC with the concentration of 1, 2 and 4 µM were used to incubate hBMECs. The effect and potential mechanism of AC on HICH were investigated by using cell counting kit-8, flow cytometry, tube forming assays, vascular permeability experiments and western blot assays. In vivo, rats were injected with 20 µL hemoglobin with a concentration of 150 mg/mL, and then intragastrically administrated with 1.25, 2.5 and 5 mg/kg AC. Behavioral tests, brain water content measurement, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase deoxyuridine triphosphate (dUTP) nick end labeling assays, and western blot were used to assess the effect and potential mechanism of AC on HICH. AC (at 2 and 4 µM) improved the proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis and vascular permeability in thrombin-induced hBMECs (p < 0.05). Besides, AC (2.5 and 5 mg/kg) ameliorated behavioral scores, brain water content, pathological lesion, apoptosis and the expression of vascular permeability-related proteins in rats with HICH (p < 0.05). In addition, AC elevated the expression of PI3K/AKT pathway after HICH both in cell and animal models (p < 0.05). Application of LY294002, an inhibitor of PI3K/AKT pathway, reversed the ameliorative effect of AC on the proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis and vascular permeability in thrombin-induced hBMECs (p < 0.05). AC reduced brain damage by increasing the expression of the PI3K/AKT pathway after HICH.

RESUMEN

Bone defects caused by trauma, infection and congenital diseases still face great challenges. Dihydromyricetin (DHM) is a kind of flavone extracted from Ampelopsis grossedentata, a traditional Chinese medicine. DHM can enhance the osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells with the potential to promote bone regeneration. Hydrogel can be used as a carrier of DHM to promote bone regeneration due to its unique biochemical characteristics and three-dimensional structure. In this study, oxidized phellinus igniarius polysaccharides (OP) and L-arginine chitosan (CA) are used to develop hydrogel. The pore size and gel strength of the hydrogel can be changed by adjusting the oxidation degree of oxidized phellinus igniarius polysaccharides. The addition of DHM further reduce the pore size of the hydrogel (213 µm), increase the mechanical properties of the hydrogel, and increase the antioxidant and antibacterial activities of the hydrogel. The scavenging rate of DPPH are 72.30 ± 0.33 %, and the inhibition rate of E.coli and S.aureus are 93.12 ± 0.38 % and 94.49 ± 1.57 %, respectively. In addition, PCAD has good adhesion and biocompatibility, and its extract can effectively promote the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. Network pharmacology and molecular docking show that the promoting effect of DHM on osteogenesis may be achieved by activating the PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling pathways. This is confirmed through in vitro cell experiments and in vivo animal experiments.

RESUMEN

Estradiol (E2) deficiency arising from menopause is closely related to changes in body composition and declines of muscle mass and strength in elderly women. Whole-body vibration training (WBV) is an emerging approach expected to improve muscle mass and strength of older person, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The balance between protein synthesis and degradation is a determining factor for muscle mass and strength, which is regulated by Akt-mTOR and FoxO1 signal pathway, respectively. In the present study, we firstly determined whether the effects of WBV on muscle mass and strength in ovariectomized female mice was affected by estrogen level, then investigated whether this was associated with Akt-mTOR and FoxO1 signal pathways. We found that (1) WBV, E2 supplementation (E) and WBV combined with E2 supplementation (WBV+E) significantly increased serum estradiol content, quadriceps muscle mass and grip strength in ovariectomized mice, accompanied with alterations of body composition (reducing fat content, increasing lean body mass and lean percent), furthermore, the altered degrees of these indicators by WBV+E were greater than WBV alone; (2) WBV, E and WBV+E remarkably increased the activities of Akt and mTOR and decreased FoxO1 activity, and the changed degrees by WBV+E were greater than WBV alone; (3) Pearson correlation coefficient revealed that serum estradiol content was positively correlated with Akt and mTOR activities, while inversely associated with FoxO1 activity. We concluded that WBV could significantly increase muscle mass and strength in ovariectomized mice, which might achieve through activating Akt-mTOR and suppressing FoxO1 signal pathways, and the improving effect of WBV on muscle mass and strength was better when in the presence of estrogen.

RESUMEN

Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT) is the leading cause of childhood chronic kidney failure and a significant cause of chronic kidney disease in adults. Genetic and environmental factors are known to influence CAKUT development, but the currently known disease mechanism remains incomplete. Our goal is to identify affected pathways and networks in CAKUT, and thereby aid in getting a better understanding of its pathophysiology. With this goal, the miRNome, peptidome, and proteome of over 30 amniotic fluid samples of patients with non-severe CAKUT was compared to patients with severe CAKUT. These omics data sets were made findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) to facilitate their integration with external data resources. Furthermore, we analysed and integrated the omics data sets using three different bioinformatics strategies: integrative analysis with mixOmics, joint dimensionality reduction and pathway analysis. The three bioinformatics analyses provided complementary features, but all pointed towards an important role for collagen in CAKUT development and the PI3K-AKT signalling pathway. Additionally, several key genes (CSF1, IGF2, ITGB1, and RAC1) and microRNAs were identified. We published the three analysis strategies as containerized workflows. These workflows can be applied to other FAIR data sets and help gaining knowledge on other rare diseases.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a crucial pathological process that contributes to proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), and research indicates that factors present in the vitreous that target cells play pivotal roles in regulating EMT. Experimental studies have confirmed that rabbit vitreous (RV) promotes EMT in human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MALAT1 has been implicated in EMT in various diseases. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the involvement of lncRNA MALAT1 in vitreous-induced EMT in RPE cells. METHODS: MALAT1 was knocked down in ARPE-19 cells by short hairpin RNA (shRNA) transfection. Reverse transcription PCR (RT‒PCR) was used to evaluate MALAT1 expression, and Western blotting analysis was used to measure the expression of EMT-related proteins. Wound-healing, Transwell, and cell contraction assays were conducted to assess cell migration, invasion, and contraction, respectively. Additionally, cell proliferation was assessed using the CCK-8 assay, and cytoskeletal changes were examined by immunofluorescence. RESULTS: MALAT1 expression was significantly increased in ARPE-19 cells cultured with RV. Silencing MALAT1 effectively suppressed EMT and downregulated the associated factors snail1 and E-cadherin. Furthermore, silencing MALAT1 inhibited the RV-induced migration, invasion, proliferation, and contraction of ARPE-19 cells. Silencing MALAT1 also decreased RV-induced AKT and P53 phosphorylation. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, lncRNA MALAT1 participates in regulating vitreous-induced EMT in human RPE cells; these results provide new insight into the pathogenesis of PVR and offer a potential direction for the development of antiproliferative drugs.

RESUMEN

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of small non-coding RNAs and play an important role in controlling vital biological processes, including cell cycle control, apoptosis, metabolism, and development and differentiation, which lead to various diseases such as neurological, metabolic disorders, and cancer. Chemotherapy consider as gold treatment approaches for cancer patients. However, chemotherapeutic is one of the main challenges in cancer management. Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anti-cancer drug that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells. DOX is used to treat various types of cancer, including breast, nervous tissue, bladder, stomach, ovary, thyroid, lung, bone, muscle, joint and soft tissue cancers. Also recently, miRNAs have been identified as master regulators of specific genes responsible for the mechanisms that initiate chemical resistance. miRNAs have a regulatory effect on chemotherapy resistance through the regulation of apoptosis process. Also, the effect of miRNAs p53 gene as a key tumor suppressor was confirmed via studies. miRNAs can affect main biological pathways include PI3K pathway. This review aimed to present the current understanding of the mechanisms and effects of miRNAs on apoptosis, p53 and PTEN/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway related to DOX resistance.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrine disease in women of childbearing age, and the incidence of PCOS has increased in recent years. However, the pathogenesis of this disease has not been fully elucidated. METHODS: The expression of miR-151a-3p in ovarian granulosa cells (KGN) was determined using real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), colony formation and flow cytometric assays were used to investigate the effect of miR-151a-3p on KGN cells. Luciferase reporter analysis and western blotting were used to verify the targeting of miR-151a-3p by Traf and Nck interacting kinase (TNIK). Western blotting (WB) was used to evaluate the protein levels. RESULTS: We found that miR-151a-3p was downregulated and TNIK was upregulated in the serum of PCOS patients. Low expression of miR-151a-3p promoted cell proliferation, colony formation and the G0/G1 transition and reduced apoptosis. Our results showed that low expression of miR-151a-3p promoted the expression of TNIK, which activated the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) pathway. Overexpression of TNIK rescued the effect of miR-151a-3p in ovarian granulosa cells. Finally, our results showed that there was a significant correlation between the expression of miR-151a-3p and the expression of the target TNIK in PCOS patients and that miR-151a-3p promoted disease occurrence by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS: Low expression of miR-151a-3p promoted KNG cell proliferation by activating the TNIK-mediated PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. The miR-151a-3p/TNIK/PI3K/AKT signaling axis may be a potential therapeutic target for preventing the progression of PCOS.

RESUMEN

LHPP, a novel, recognized tumor suppressor, exerts a critical influence on the regulation of tumor cell proliferation and survival by modulating various signaling pathways with its phosphatase activity. Here, we unveil a robust correlation between reduced LHPP expression and adverse prognosis in prostate cancer. We demonstrate that LHPP interacts with AKT, thereby dampening AKT phosphorylation and subsequently inhibiting ACSL4 phosphorylation at the T624 site. This interaction impedes phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination, thwarting SKP2 from recognizing and binding to ACSL4 at the K621 site. As a result, ACSL4 is spared from lysosomal degradation, leading to its accumulation and the promotion of lipid peroxidation, and ferroptosis. Moreover, our findings reveal that Panobinostat, a potent histone-deacetylase inhibitor, intricately regulates LHPP expression at multiple levels through the inhibition of HDAC3. This complex modulation enhances the ferroptosis pathway, offering a novel mechanism for curtailing the growth of prostate tumors and highlighting its significant translational potential for clinical application.

RESUMEN

Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata (Fuzi in Chinese) is widely used in the clinical treatment of tumors. This study aims to explore the active fractions and underlying mechanisms of Fuzi in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Fuzi alkaloids (FZA) is prepared and found to inhibit the growth of NSCLC both in vitro and in vivo significantly. A total of 53 alkaloids are identified in FZA by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. Proteomics experiment show that 238 differentially expressed proteins regulated by FZA are involved in amino acid anabolism, pyrimidine metabolism and PI3K/Akt-mTOR signaling pathway. Metabolomics analyses identify 32 significant differential metabolites which are mainly involved in amino acid metabolism, TCA cycle and other pathways. Multi-omics research combined with molecular biological assays suggest that FZA might regulate glycolysis through PI3K/Akt-mTOR pathway to treat NSCLC. The study lays a foundation for the anti-cancer investigation of Fuzi and provides a possible scientific basis for its clinical application.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is an aging-related progressive lung disorder. The aged lung undergoes functional and structural changes termed immunosenescence and inflammaging, which facilitate the occurrence of fibrosis. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a potent anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory cytokine, yet it remains unclear how IL-10 deficiency-induced immunosenescence participates in the development of PF. METHODS: Firstly we evaluated the susceptibility to fibrosis and IL-10 expression in aged mice. Then 13-month-old wild-type (WT) and IL-10 knockout (KO) mice were subjected to bleomycin(BLM) and analyzed senescence-related markers by PCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry staining of p16, p21, p53, as well as DHE and SA-ß-gal staining. We further compared 18-month-old WT mice with 13-month-old IL-10KO mice to assess aging-associated cell senescence and inflamation infiltration in both lung and BALF. Moreover, proliferation and apoptosis of alveolar type 2 cells(AT2) were evaluated by FCM, immunofluorescence, TUNEL staining, and TEM analysis. Recombinant IL-10 (rIL-10) was also administered intratracheally to evaluate its therapeutic potential and related mechanism. For the in vitro experiments, 10-week-old naïve pramily lung fibroblasts(PLFs) were treated with the culture medium of 13-month PLFs derived from WT, IL-10KO, or IL-10KO + rIL-10 respectively, and examined the secretion of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) factors and related pathways. RESULTS: The aged mice displayed increased susceptibility to fibrosis and decreased IL-10 expression. The 13-month-old IL-10KO mice exhibited significant exacerbation of cell senescence compared to their contemporary WT mice, and even more severe epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) than that of 18 month WT mice. These IL-10 deficient mice showed heightened inflammatory responses and accelerated PF progression. Intratracheal administration of rIL-10 reduced lung CD45 + cell infiltration by 15%, including a 6% reduction in granulocytes and a 10% reduction in macrophages, and increased the proportion of AT2 cells by approximately 8%. Additionally, rIL-10 significantly decreased α-SMA and collagen deposition, and reduced the expression of senescence proteins p16 and p21 by 50% in these mice. In vitro analysis revealed that conditioned media from IL-10 deficient mice promoted SASP secretion and upregulated senescence genes in naïve lung fibroblasts, which was mitigated by rIL-10 treatment. Mechanistically, rIL-10 inhibited TGF-ß-Smad2/3 and PTEN/PI3K/AKT/ERK pathways, thereby suppressing senescence and fibrosis-related proteins. CONCLUSIONS: IL-10 deficiency in aged mice leads to accelerated cell senescence and exacerbated fibrosis, with IL-10KO-PLFs displaying increased SASP secretion. Recombinant IL-10 treatment effectively mitigates these effects, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for PF.

RESUMEN

The innate immune response is triggered rapidly after injury and its spatiotemporal dynamics are critical for regeneration; however, many questions remain about its exact role. Here we show that MyD88, a key component of the innate immune response, controls not only the inflammatory but also the fibrotic response during zebrafish cardiac regeneration. We find in cryoinjured myd88-/- ventricles a significant reduction in neutrophil and macrophage numbers and the expansion of a collagen-rich endocardial population. Further analyses reveal compromised PI3K/AKT pathway activation in the myd88-/- endocardium and increased myofibroblasts and scarring. Notably, endothelial-specific overexpression of myd88 reverses these neutrophil, fibrotic and scarring phenotypes. Mechanistically, we identify the endocardial-derived chemokine gene cxcl18b as a target of the MyD88 signaling pathway, and using loss-of-function and gain-of-function tools, we show that it controls neutrophil recruitment. Altogether, these findings shed light on the pivotal role of MyD88 in modulating inflammation and fibrosis during tissue regeneration.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence has highlighted the therapeutic potential of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) in chemotherapy-induced premature ovarian failure (POF). This study was designed to investigate the appropriate timing and molecular mechanism of UC-MSCs treatment for chemotherapy-induced POF. METHODS: Ovarian structure and function of mice were assessed every 3 days after injections with cyclophosphamide (CTX) and busulfan (BUS). UC-MSCs and UC-MSCs-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) were infused into mice via the tail vein, respectively. Ovarian function was analyzed by follicle counts, the serum levels of hormones and ovarian morphology. The apoptosis and proliferation of ovarian granulosa cells were analyzed in vitro and in vivo. Label-free quantitative proteomics was used to detect the differentially expressed proteins in UC-MSC-derived EVs. RESULTS: After CTX/BUS injection, we observed that the ovarian function of POF mice was significantly deteriorated on day 9 after CTX/BUS infusion. TUNEL assay indicated that the number of apoptotic cells in the ovaries of POF mice was significantly higher than that in normal mice on day 3 after CTX/BUS injection. Transplantation of UC-MSCs on day 6 after CTX/BUS injection significantly improved ovarian function, enhanced proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells, whereas the therapeutic effect of UC-MSCs transplantation decreased on day 9, or day 12 after CTX/BUS injection. Moreover, EVs derived from UC-MSCs exerted similar therapeutic effects on POF. UC-MSCs-derived EVs could activate the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and reduce ovarian granulosa cell apoptosis. Quantitative proteomics analysis revealed that clusterin (CLU) was highly expressed in the EVs of UC-MSCs. The supplementation of CLU proteins prevented ovarian granulosa cells from chemotherapy-induced apoptosis. Further mechanistic analysis showed that CLU-knockdown blocked the PI3K/AKT signaling and reversed the protective effects of UC-MSCs-derived EVs. CONCLUSIONS: Administration of UC-MSCs and UC-MSCs-derived EVs on day 6 of CTX/BUS injection could effectively improve the ovarian function of POF mice. UC-MSCs-derived EVs carrying CLU promoted proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells through activating the PI3K/AKT pathway. This study identifies a previously unrecognized molecular mechanism of UC-MSCs-mediated protective effects on POF, which pave the way for the use of cell-free therapeutic approach for POF.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Fibrosis with unrelieved chronic inflammation is an important pathological change in keloids. Mitochondrial autophagy plays a crucial role in reducing inflammation and inhibiting fibrosis. Adipose stem cell-derived exosomes, a product of adipose stem cell paracrine secretion, have pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects, and mediate autophagy. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the function and mechanism of adipose stem cell exosomes in the treatment of keloids. METHOD: We isolated adipose stem cell exosomes under normoxic and hypoxic condition to detect their effects on keloid fibroblast proliferation, migration, and collagen synthesis. Meanwhile, 740YPDGFR (PI3K/AKT activator) was applied to detect the changes in autophagic flow levels and mitochondrial morphology and function in keloid fibroblasts. We constructed a human keloid mouse model by transplanting human keloid tissues into six-week-old (20-22 g; female) BALB/c nude mice, meanwhile, we applied adipose stem cell exosomes to treat the mouse model and observed the retention and effect of ADSC exosomes in vivo. RESULTS: ADSC exosomes can inhibit the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. The exosomes of ADSCs decreased the inflammatory level of KFs, enhanced the interaction between P62 and LC3, and restored the mitochondrial membrane potential. In the human keloid mouse model, ADSC exosomes can exist stably, promote mitochondrial autophagy in keloid tissue, improve mitochondrial morphology, reduce inflammatory reaction and fibrosis. Meanwhile, At the same time, the exosomes derived from hypoxic adipose stem cells have played a more effective role in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. CONCLUSIONS: Adipose stem cell exosomes inhibited the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, activated mitochondrial autophagy, and alleviated keloid scars.

RESUMEN

Objective: In this study, the impact of inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway on lung oxidative damage induced by Echinococcus granulosus cyst fluid was investigated. Methods: Twenty-four mice were randomly assigned to four groups. Three months after inoculation with hydatid cyst segments, mice in group A were treated with intraperitoneal and intratracheal saline injections; mice in group B were administered a caudal vein injection of a PI3K inhibitor, followed by cyst fluid sensitization; mice in group C received an AKT inhibitor via caudal vein, followed by cyst fluid sensitization; and mice in group D were subjected to cyst fluid sensitization without any inhibitor treatment. Cellular changes in lung tissues across all groups were evaluated, including pathological section analysis. Analysis of pulmonary tissue and serum from these mice included the assessment of PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway proteins, inflammatory factors, and related mRNA levels. Results: Mice in groups B and C exhibited a higher proportion of M2-type macrophages and significantly lower levels of PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway proteins, inflammatory factors (interleukin-6 [IL-6]/tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α]), and oxidative markers in lung tissues compared to mice in group D (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Our results in this study indicate that activation of the PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway contributed to an increase in the M1 macrophage phenotype, leading to enhanced secretion of peroxidases and inflammatory factors. This mechanism plays a crucial role in the oxidative and inflammatory lung damage associated with allergic reactions to E. granulosus cyst fluid.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to reveal the role and mechanism of MG-132 in delaying hyperlipidemia-induced senescence of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). METHODS: Immunohistochemistry and hematoxylin-eosin staining confirmed the therapeutic effect of MG-132 on arterial senescence in vivo and its possible mechanism. Subsequently, VSMCs were treated with sodium palmitate (PA), an activator (Recilisib) or an inhibitor (Pictilisib) to activate or inhibit PI3K, and CCK-8 and EdU staining, wound healing assays, Transwell cell migration assays, autophagy staining assays, reactive oxygen species assays, senescence-associated ß-galactosidase staining, and Western blotting were performed to determine the molecular mechanism by which MG-132 inhibits VSMC senescence. Validation of the interaction between MG-132 and PI3K using molecular docking. RESULTS: Increased expression of p-PI3K, a key protein of the autophagy regulatory system, and decreased expression of the autophagy-associated proteins Beclin 1 and ULK1 were observed in the aortas of C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD), and autophagy was inhibited in aortic smooth muscle. MG-132 inhibits atherosclerosis by activating autophagy in VSMCs to counteract PA-induced cell proliferation, migration, oxidative stress, and senescence, thereby inhibiting VSMC senescence in the aorta. This process is achieved through the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. CONCLUSION: MG-132 activates autophagy by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, thereby inhibiting palmitate-induced proliferation, migration, and oxidative stress in vascular smooth muscle cells and suppressing their senescence.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the predominate histological type of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), has been extensively studied, with poor prognosis as the stage increases. Research findings consistently indicated that the PI3K-Akt pathway is commonly dysregulated across various cancer types, including ccRCC. Targeting the PI3K-Akt pathway held promise as a potential therapeutic approach for treating ccRCC. Development and validation of PI3K-Akt pathway-related genes related biomarkers can enhance healthcare management of patients with ccRCC. PURPOSE: This study aimed to identify the key genes in the PI3K-Akt pathway associated with the diagnosis and prognosis of CCRCC using data mining from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Synthesis (GEO) datasets. METHODS: The purpose of this study is to use bioinformatics methods to screen data sets and clinicopathological characteristics associated with ccRCC patients. The exhibited significantly differential expressed genes (DEGs) associated with the PI3K-Akt pathway were examined by KEGG. In addition, Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis used to estimate the survival function of the differential genes by using the UALCAN database and graphPad Prism 9.0. And exploring the association between the expression levels of the selected genes and the survival status and time of patients with ccRCC based on SPSS22.0. Finally, a multigene prognostic model was constructed to assess the prognostic risk of ccRCC patients. RESULTS: A total of 911 genes with common highly expressed were selected based on the GEO and TCGA databases. According to the KEGG pathway analysis, there were 42 genes enriched in PI3K-Akt signalling pathway. And seven of highly expressed genes were linked to a poor prognosis in ccRCC. And a multigene prognostic model was established based on IL2RG, EFNA3, and MTCP1 synergistic expression might be utilized to predict the survival of ccRCC patients. CONCLUSIONS: Three PI3K-Akt pathway-related genes may be helpful to identify the prognosis and molecular characteristics of ccRCC patients and to improve therapeutic regimens, and these risk characteristics might be further applied in the clinic.

RESUMEN

Objectives: Thyroid cancer (THCA) is the most common malignant tumor in endocrine system and the incidence has been increasing worldwide. And the number of patients dying from THCA has also gradually risen because the incidence continues to increase, so the mechanisms related to effective targets is necessary to improve the survival. This study was to preliminarily investigate the effects of the COL4A2 gene on the regulation of thyroid cancer (THCA) cell proliferation and the associated pathways. Methods: Bioinformatics analysis revealed that COL4A2 was closely associated with cancer development. COL4A2 expression in THCA tissues was analyzed using immunohistochemistry, and survival information was determined via Kaplan‒Meier curves. The expression of COL4A2 and AKT pathway-related genes were analyzed using qPCR and western blot analyses. Colony formation as well as CCK-8 assays exhibited the cell proliferation level and cell activity, respectively. Downstream of COL4A2 was identified by Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). The effects of the COL4A2 and AKT pathways on THCA tumor growth in vivo were determined using a mouse model. Results: Bioinformatics analysis exhibited that COL4A2 plays a significant role in cancer and that the AKT pathway is downstream of COL4A2. THCA patients with high COL4A2 expression had shorter recurrence-free survival. Upregulation of COL4A2 gene expression in 2 THCA cell lines promoted tumor cell growth and activity. The use of AKT pathway blockers also restrained the growth and activity of the 2 THCA cell lines. The use of AKT pathway blockers reduced tumor volume and mass and prolonged mouse survival. Conclusions: COL4A2 can promote the growth as well as development of THCA through the AKT pathway and COL4A2 could be used as a target for THCA.

RESUMEN

Rationale: Food allergy is a prevalent disease in the U.S., affecting nearly 30 million people. The primary management strategy for this condition is food avoidance, as limited treatment options are available. The elevation of pathologic IgE and over-reactive mast cells/basophils is a central factor in food allergy anaphylaxis. This study aims to comprehensively evaluate the potential therapeutic mechanisms of a small molecule compound called formononetin in regulating IgE and mast cell activation. Methods: In this study, we determined the inhibitory effect of formononetin on the production of human IgE from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of food-allergic patients using ELISA. We also measured formononetin's effect on preventing mast cell degranulation in RBL-2H3 and KU812 cells using beta-hexosaminidase assay. To identify potential targets of formononetin in IgE-mediated diseases, mast cell disorders, and food allergies, we utilized computational modeling to analyze mechanistic targets of formononetin from various databases, including SEA, Swiss Target Prediction, PubChem, Gene Cards, and Mala Cards. We generated a KEGG pathway, Gene Ontology, and Compound Target Pathway Disease Network using these targets. Finally, we used qRT-PCR to measure the gene expression of selected targets in KU812 and U266 cell lines. Results: Formononetin significantly decreased IgE production in IgE-producing human myeloma cells and PBMCs from food-allergic patients in a dose-dependent manner without cytotoxicity. Formononetin decreased beta-hexosaminidase release in RBL-2H3 cells and KU812 cells. Formononetin regulates 25 targets in food allergy, 51 in IgE diseases, and 19 in mast cell diseases. KEGG pathway and gene ontology analysis of targets showed that formononetin regulated disease pathways, primary immunodeficiency, Epstein-Barr Virus, and pathways in cancer. The biological processes regulated by formononetin include B cell proliferation, differentiation, immune response, and activation processes. Compound target pathway disease network identified NFKB1, NFKBIA, STAT1, STAT3, CCND1, TP53, TYK2, and CASP8 as the top targets regulated at a high degree by formononetin. TP53, STAT3, PTPRC, IL2, and CD19 were identified as the proteins mostly targeted by formononetin. qPCR validated genes of Formononetin molecular targets of IgE regulation in U266 cells and KU812 cells. In U266 cells, formononetin was found to significantly increase the gene expression of NFKBIA, TP53, and BCL-2 while decreasing the gene expression of BTK TYK, CASP8, STAT3, CCND1, STAT1, NFKB1, IL7R. In basophils KU812 cells, formononetin significantly increased the gene expression of NFKBIA, TP53, and BCL-2 while decreasing the gene expression of BTK, TYK, CASP8, STAT3, CCND1, STAT1, NFKB1, IL7R. Conclusion: These findings comprehensively present formononetin's mechanisms in regulating IgE production in plasma cells and degranulation in mast cells.
