Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by degeneration of dopaminergic neurons associated with dysregulation of iron homeostasis in the brain. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent cell death process that serves as a significant regulatory mechanism in PD. However, its underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. By performing RNA sequencing analysis, we found that the main iron storage protein ferritin heavy chain 1 (FTH1) is differentially expressed in the rat 6-hydroyxdopamine (6-OHDA) model of PD compared with control rats. Our present work demonstrates that FTH1 is involved in iron accumulation and the ferroptosis pathway in this model. Knockdown of FTH1 in PC-12 cells significantly inhibited cell viability and caused mitochondrial dysfunction. Moreover, FTH1 was found to be involved in ferritinophagy, a selective form of autophagy involving the degradation of ferritin by ferroptosis. Overexpression of FTH1 in PC-12 cells impaired ferritinophagy and downregulated microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 and nuclear receptor coactivator 4 expression, ultimately suppressing cell death induced by ferroptosis. Consistent with these findings, the ferritinophagy inhibitors chloroquine and bafilomycin A1 inhibited ferritin degradation and ferroptosis in 6-OHDA-treated PC-12 cells. This entire process was mediated by the cyclic regulation of FTH1 and ferritinophagy. Taken together, these results suggest that FTH1 links ferritinophagy and ferroptosis in the 6-OHDA model of PD, and provide a new perspective and potential for a pharmacological target in this disease.

Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is caused by persistent micro-injuries and aberrant repair processes. Myofibroblast differentiation in lung is a key event for abnormal repair. Dihydroartemisinin(DHA), a well-known anti-malarial drug, have been shown to alleviate pulmonary fibrosis, but its mechanism is not clear. Ferroptosis is involved in the pathgenesis of many diseases, including IPF. Ferritinophagy is a form of cellular autophagy which regulates intracellular iron homeostasis. The function of DHA on myofibroblasts differentiation of pulmonary and whether related with ferroptosis and ferritinophagy are unknown now. Using human fetal lung fibroblast 1(HFL1) cell line and the qRT-PCR, immunofluorescent and Western blotting techniques, we found that after TGF-β1 treatment, the levels of ɑ-SMA expression and ROS increased; the mRNA and protein levels of FTH1 and NCOA4, the content of Fe2+ and 4-HNE increased significantly at 6h, then gradually reduced with time. After DHA treatment, FHL1 cells appeared ferroptosis; the levels of α-SMA mRNA and protein reduced and the levels of ROS and 4-HNE increased; the Fe2+ levels decreased sharply at 6h, then increased with time, and were higher than normal since 24h; the mRNA and protein levels of FTH1 and NCOA4 decreased, exhibited a downward trend. These results show that Fe2+, ROS and lipid peroxidation are involved in and ferritinophagy is inhibited during fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation; The depletion of Fe2+ at early stage induced by DHA treatment triggers the ferritinophagy in HFL1 cells, leading to degradation of FTH1 and NCOA4 and following increase of Fe2+ levels. DHA may inhibit the fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation through inducing ferroptosis mediated by ferritinophagy.

Project description:Newcastle disease virus (NDV) strongly induces both type I and III antiviral interferons (IFNs-?/-? and IFN-?, respectively) in tumor cells while it induces mainly type III IFN in normal cells. Impairment of antiviral type I IFN signaling in tumor cells is thought to be the reason for effective oncolysis. However, there is lack of clarity why lentogenic strain NDV can also induce oncolysis. NDV infection caused apoptosis in normal and tumor cells as demonstrated with the caspase-3 enzyme activation and annexin-V detection. The apoptosis response was inhibited by B18R protein (a type I IFN inhibitor) in tumor cells i.e. A549 and U87MG, and not in normal cells i.e. NB1RGB and HEK293. Similarly, UV-inactivated medium from NDV infection was shown to induce apoptosis in corresponding cells and the response was inhibited in A549 and U87MG cells with the addition of B18R protein. Treatment with combination of IFNs-?/-?/-? or IFNs-?/-? or IFN-? in NB1RGB, HEK293, A549 and U87MG showed that caspase activity in IFNs-?/-?/-? group was the highest, followed with IFN-?/-? group and IFN-? group. This suggests that tumor-selectivity of NDV is mainly because of the cumulative effect of type I and III in tumor cells that lead to higher apoptotic effect.

Project description:Ferroptosis, a recently discovered form of iron-dependent cell death, requires an increased level of lipid-reactive oxygen species (ROS). Ferritinophagy, a ferritin degradation pathway, depends on a selective autophagic cargo receptor (NCOA4). By screening various types of natural compounds, formosanin C (FC) was identified as a novel ferroptosis inducer, characterized by attenuations of FC-induced viability inhibition and lipid ROS formation in the presence of ferroptosis inhibitor. FC also induced autophagic flux, evidenced by preventing autophagic marker LC3-II degradation and increasing yellow LC3 puncta in tandem fluorescent-tagged LC3 (mRFP-GFP) reporter plasmid (ptfLC3) transfected cells when combined with autophagic flux inhibitor. It is noteworthy that FC-induced ferroptosis and autophagic flux were stronger in HepG2 cells expressing higher NCOA4 and lower ferritin heavy chain 1 (FTH1) levels, agreeing with the results of gene expression analysis using CTRP and PRISM, indicating that FTH1 expression level exhibited a significant negative correlation with the sensitivity of the cells to a ferroptosis inducer. Confocal and electron microscopy confirmed the pronounced involvement of ferritinophagy in FC-induced ferroptosis in the cells with elevated NCOA4. Since ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic form of cell death, our data suggest FC has chemotherapeutic potential against apoptosis-resistant HCC with a higher NCOA4 expression via ferritinophagy.

Project description:Ferroptosis, a new form of programmed cell death, not only promotes the pathological process of various human diseases, but also regulates cancer progression. Current perspectives on the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Herein, we report a member of the NEET protein family, CISD3, exerts a regulatory role in cancer progression and ferroptosis both in vivo and in vitro. Pan-cancer analysis from TCGA reveals that expression of CISD3 is generally elevated in various human cancers which are consequently associated with a higher hazard ratio and poorer overall survival. Moreover, knockdown of CISD3 significantly accelerates lipid peroxidation and accentuates free iron accumulation triggered by Xc- inhibition or cystine-deprivation, thus causing ferroptotic cell death. Conversely, ectopic expression of the shRNA-resistant form of CISD3 (CISD3res) efficiently ameliorates the ferroptotic cell death. Mechanistically, CISD3 depletion presents a metabolic reprogramming toward glutaminolysis, which is required for the fuel of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Both the inhibitors of glutaminolysis and the ETC process were capable of blocking the lipid peroxidation and ferroptotic cell death in the shCISD3 cells. Besides, genetic and pharmacological activation of mitophagy can rescue the CISD3 knockdown-induced ferroptosis by eliminating the damaged mitochondria. Noteworthily, GPX4 acts downstream of CISD3 mediated ferroptosis, which fails to reverse the homeostasis of mitochondria. Collectively, the present work provides novel insights into the regulatory role of CISD3 in ferroptotic cell death and presents a potential target for advanced antitumor activity through ferroptosis.

Project description:Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) hold great promise for biomedical applications. Previous studies have revealed that ZnONPs exposure can induce toxicity in endothelial cells, but the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In this study, we report that ZnONPs can induce ferroptosis of both HUVECs and EA.hy926 cells, as evidenced by the elevation of intracellular iron levels, lipid peroxidation and cell death in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In addition, both the lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger ferrostatin-1 and the iron chelator deferiprone attenuated ZnONPs-induced cell death. Intriguingly, we found that ZnONPs-induced ferroptosis is macroautophagy/autophagy-dependent, because the inhibition of autophagy with a pharmacological inhibitor or by ATG5 gene knockout profoundly mitigated ZnONPs-induced ferroptosis. We further demonstrated that NCOA4 (nuclear receptor coactivator 4)-mediated ferritinophagy (autophagic degradation of the major intracellular iron storage protein ferritin) was required for the ferroptosis induced by ZnONPs, by showing that NCOA4 knockdown can reduce the intracellular iron level and lipid peroxidation, and subsequently alleviate ZnONPs-induced cell death. Furthermore, we showed that ROS originating from mitochondria (mtROS) probably activated the AMPK-ULK1 axis to trigger ferritinophagy. Most importantly, pulmonary ZnONPs exposure caused vascular inflammation and ferritinophagy in mice, and ferrostatin-1 supplementation significantly reversed the vascular injury induced by pulmonary ZnONPs exposure. Overall, our study indicates that ferroptosis is a novel mechanism for ZnONPs-induced endothelial cytotoxicity, and that NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy is required for ZnONPs-induced ferroptotic cell death.Abbreviations: 3-MA: 3-methyladenine; ACTB: Actin beta; AMPK: AMP-activated protein kinase; ATG: Autophagy-related; BafA1: Bafilomycin A1; CQ: Choloroquine; DFP: Deferiprone; FACS: Fluorescence-activated cell sorting; Fer-1: Ferrostatin-1; FTH1: Ferritin heavy chain 1; GPX4: Glutathione peroxidase 4; GSH: Glutathione; IREB2/IRP2: Iron responsive element binding protein 2; LIP: Labile iron pool; MAP1LC3B/LC3B: Microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; MTOR: Mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase; NCOA4: Nuclear receptor coactivator 4; NFE2L2/NRF2: Nuclear factor, erythroid 2 like 2; PGSK: Phen Green™ SK; ROS: Reactive oxygen species; siRNA: Small interfering RNA; SQSTM1/p62: Sequestosome 1; TEM: Transmission electron microscopy; ULK1: Unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1; ZnONPs: Zinc oxide nanoparticles.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to investigate whether inhibition of DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase 1 (DNMT-1) alleviated ferroptosis through nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4)-mediated ferritinophagy during diabetes myocardial (DM) ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury (IRI). Rat DM + sham (DS), I/R, and DM + I/R (DIR), H9c2 cell high glucose (HG), hypoxia reoxygenation (H/R), and high-glucose hypoxia reoxygenation (HH/R) models were established. DNMT-1 inhibitor 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-CdR) was administered to rat and cell models. The protein level of DNMT-1, NCOA4, FTH, GPX4, Beclin-1, and P62 was detected by western blotting. Compared with normal sham (NS) group, myocardial tissue was injured in DS and I/R models. The level of DNMT-1, NCOA4, and ferroptosis was increased. Moreover, the cell injury was more serious in rat DIR or HH/R model. 5-Aza-CdR could reduce NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy and myocardial injury in DIR and HH/R models. Moreover, the siRNA for NCOA4 could also reduce the level of ferritinophagy and cell injury in HH/R model. 5-Aza-CdR enhanced the protective effect for NCOA4-siRNA in the process of cell injury. Inhibition of DNMT-1 could reduce ferroptosis during DIR, which the NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy might be regulated.

Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive nervous system disorder. Until now, the molecular mechanism of its occurrence is not fully understood. Paraquat (PQ) was identified as a neurotoxicant and is linked to increased PD risk and PD-like neuropathology. Ferroptosis is recognized as a new form of regulated cell death. Here, we revealed a new underlying mechanism by which ferritinophagy-mediated ferroptosis is involved in PD induced by PQ. The effect of PQ on movement injury in mice was investigated by the bar fatigue and pole-climbing test. SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells were used to evaluate the mechanism of ferroptosis. Our results showed that PQ induced movement injury by causing the decrease in tyrosine hydroxylase in mice. In vitro, PQ significantly caused the iron accumulation in cytoplasm and mitochondria through ferritinophagy pathway induced by NCOA4. Iron overload initiated lipid peroxidation through 12Lox, further inducing ferroptosis by producing lipid ROS. PQ downregulated SLC7A11 and GPX4 expression and upregulated Cox2 expression significantly, which were important markers in ferroptosis. Fer-1, an inhibitor of ferroptosis, could significantly ameliorate the ferroptosis induced by PQ. Meanwhile, Bcl2, Bax, and p-38 were involved in apoptosis induced by PQ. In conclusion, ferritinophagy-mediated ferroptosis pathway played an important role in PD occurrence. Bcl2/Bax and P-p38/p38 pathways mediated the cross-talk between ferroptosis and apoptosis induced by PQ. These data further demonstrated the complexity of PD occurrence. The inhibition of the ferroptosis and apoptosis together may be a new strategy for the prevention of neurotoxicity or PD in the future.
