ABSTRACT
Gastric ulcer is a highly prevalent digestive tract disease across the world, which is recurrent and hard to cure, sometimes transforming into gastric cancer if left untreated, posing great threat to human health. To develop new medicines for gastric ulcer, we ran a series of screens with ethanol stress model in GES-1 cells, and we uncovered that lamivudine rescued cells from ethanol toxicity. Then, we confirmed this discovery using the well-established ethanol-induced gastric ulcer model in mice and our findings suggest that lamivudine can directly activate phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1, EC 2.7.2.3), which binds and stimulates superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1, EC 1.15.1.1) to inhibit ferroptosis and ultimately improve gastric ulcer. Moreover, AAV-PGK1 exhibited comparable gastroprotective effects to lamivudine. The findings are expected to offer novel therapeutic strategies for gastric ulcer, encompassing both lamivudine and AAV-PGK1.
