Furosine Posed Toxic Effects on Primary Sertoli Cells through Regulating Cep55/NF-?B/PI3K/Akt/FOX01/TNF-? Pathway.

ABSTRACT: As one of the Maillard reaction products, furosine has been widely reported in a variety of heat-processed foods, while the toxicity of furosine on the reproductive system and related mechanisms are unclear. Here, we constructed an intragastric gavage male mice model (42-day administration, 0.1/0.25/0.5 g furosine/Kg body weight per day) to investigate its effects on mice testicle index, hormones in serum, and mice sperm quality. Besides, the lipid metabonomics analysis was performed to screen out the special metabolites and relatively altered pathways in mice testicle tissue. Mice primary sertoli cells were separated from male mice testicle to validate the role of special metabolites in regulating pathways. We found that furosine affected testicle index, hormones expression level and sperm quality, as well as caused pathological damages in testicle tissue. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) (18:0/16:1) was upregulated by furosine both in mice testicle tissue and in primary sertoli cells, meanwhile, PE(18:0/16:1) was proved to activate Cep55/NF-?B/PI3K/Akt/FOX01/TNF-? pathway, and as a functional protein in dairy products, lactoferrin could inhibit expression of this pathway when combined with furosine. In conclusion, for the first time we validated that furosine posed toxic effects on mice sperms and testicle tissue through upregulating PE(18:0/16:1) and activating Cep55/NF-?B/PI3K/Akt/FOX01/TNF-? pathway.

Project description:Homozygous nonsense mutations in CEP55 are associated with several congenital malformations that lead to perinatal lethality suggesting that it plays a critical role in regulation of embryonic development. CEP55 has previously been studied as a crucial regulator of cytokinesis, predominantly in transformed cells, and its dysregulation is linked to carcinogenesis. However, its molecular functions during embryonic development in mammals require further investigation. We have generated a Cep55 knockout (Cep55-/-) mouse model which demonstrated preweaning lethality associated with a wide range of neural defects. Focusing our analysis on the neocortex, we show that Cep55-/- embryos exhibited depleted neural stem/progenitor cells in the ventricular zone as a result of significantly increased cellular apoptosis. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that Cep55-loss downregulates the pGsk3β/β-Catenin/Myc axis in an Akt-dependent manner. The elevated apoptosis of neural stem/progenitors was recapitulated using Cep55-deficient human cerebral organoids and we could rescue the phenotype by inhibiting active Gsk3β. Additionally, we show that Cep55-loss leads to a significant reduction of ciliated cells, highlighting a novel role in regulating ciliogenesis. Collectively, our findings demonstrate a critical role of Cep55 during brain development and provide mechanistic insights that may have important implications for genetic syndromes associated with Cep55-loss. Author summary Despite extensive investigation on the roles of CEP55 in tumorigenesis, its physiological role during development has remained largely uncharacterized. Recently, homozygous CEP55 mutations have been linked to two lethal fetal syndromes, MKS-like Syndrome and MARCH, demonstrating the importance of CEP55 in embryogenesis and neural development. These syndromes exhibit multiple severe clinical manifestations that lead to perinatal lethality. However, the exact molecular mechanism underlying complex Cep55-deficient developmental phenotypes remain elusive. To address this question, we have generated a Cep55-/- (KO) mouse model and to bridge the gap between the mouse model and human disease, we have used brain organoids generated from pluripotent stem cells as a promising approach to investigate the mechanism of Cep55-associated neurodevelopment phenotype. Our detailed mechanistic studies suggest that Cep55 regulates neural development through the Akt-downstream effector, Gsk3β, and its mediators β-Catenin and Myc, which are known regulators of neural proliferation and differentiation. Additionally, we discovered a critical role for Cep55 in regulating cilia formation. Together, these results illustrate an important role of Cep55 in regulating neurogenesis and ciliogenesis via regulation of the Akt pathway.

Project description:BackgroundAberrant expression of Aldo-Keto reductase family 1 member B10 (AKR1B10) was associated with tumor size and metastasis of breast cancer in our published preliminary studies. However, little is known about the detailed function and underlying molecular mechanism of AKR1B10 in the pathological process of breast cancer.MethodsThe relationship between elevated AKR1B10 expression and the overall survival and disease-free survival of breast cancer patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier Plotter database. Breast cancer cell lines overexpressing AKR1B10 (MCF-7/AKR1B10) and breast cancer cell lines with knockdown of AKR1B10 (BT-20/shAKR1B10) were constructed to analyze the impact of AKR1B10 expression on cell proliferation and migration of breast cancer. The expression levels of AKR1B10 were detected and compared in the breast cancer cell lines and tissues by RT-qPCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry. The proliferation of breast cancer cells was monitored by CCK8 cell proliferation assay, and the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells was observed by cell scratch test and transwell assay. The proliferation- and EMT-related proteins including cyclinD1, c-myc, Survivin, Twist, SNAI1, SLUG, ZEB1, E-cadherin, PI3K, p-PI3K, AKT, p-AKT, IKBα, p-IKBα, NF-κB p65, p-NF-κB p65 were detected by western blot in breast cancer cells. MCF-7/AKR1B10 cells were treated with LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, to consider the impact of AKR1B10 overexpression on the PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signal cascade and the presence of NF-κB p65 in nuclear. In vivo tumor xenograft experiments were used to observe the role of AKR1B10 in breast cancer growth in mice.ResultsAKR1B10 expression was significantly greater in breast cancer tissue compared to paired non-cancerous tissue. The expression of AKR1B10 positively correlated with lymph node metastasis, tumor size, Ki67 expression, and p53 expression, but inversely correlated with overall and disease-free survival rates. Gene Ontology analysis showed that AKR1B10 activity contributes to cell proliferation. Overexpression of AKR1B10 facilitated the proliferation of MCF-7 cells, and induced the migration and invasion of MCF-7 cells in vitro in association with induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Conversely, knockdown of AKR1B10 inhibited these effects in BT-20 cells. Mechanistically, AKR1B10 activated PI3K, AKT, and NF-κB p65, and induced nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65, and expression of proliferation-related proteins including c-myc, cyclinD1, Survivin, and EMT-related proteins including ZEB1, SLUG, Twist, but downregulated E-cadherin expression in MCF-7 cells. AKR1B10 silencing reduced the phosphorylation of PI3K, AKT, and NF-κB p65, the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65, and the expression of proliferation- and migration-related proteins in BT-20 cells. LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, attenuated the phosphorylation of PI3K, AKT, and NF-κB p65, and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65. In vivo tumor xenograft experiments confirmed that AKR1B10 promoted breast cancer growth in mice.ConclusionsAKR1B10 promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion of breast cancer cells via the PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway and represents a novel prognostic indicator as well as a potential therapeutic target in breast cancer.
