Chenodeoxycholic acid suppresses AML progression through promoting lipid peroxidation via ROS/p38 MAPK/DGAT1 pathway and inhibiting M2 macrophage polarization.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Bile acids are steroid synthesized in liver, which are essential for fat emulsification, cholesterol excretion and gut microbial homeostasis. However, the role of bile acids in leukemia progression remains unclear. We aim at exploring the effects and mechanisms of chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), a type of bile acids, on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) progression.

Results

Here, we found that CDCA was decreased in feces and plasma of AML patients, positively correlated with the diversity of gut microbiota, and negatively associated with AML prognosis. We further demonstrated that CDCA suppressed AML progression both in vivo and in vitro. Mechanistically, CDCA bound to mitochondria to cause mitochondrial morphology damage containing swelling and reduction of cristae, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and elevated mitochondrial calcium level, which resulted in the production of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS). Elevated ROS further activated p38 MAPK signaling pathway, which collaboratively promoted the accumulation of lipid droplets (LDs) through upregulating the expression of the diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1). As the consequence of the abundance of ROS and LDs, lipid peroxidation was enhanced in AML cells. Moreover, we uncovered that CDCA inhibited M2 macrophage polarization and suppressed the proliferation-promoting effects of M2 macrophages on AML cells in co-cultured experiments.

Conclusion

Our findings demonstrate that CDCA suppresses AML progression through synergistically promoting LDs accumulation and lipid peroxidation via ROS/p38 MAPK/DGAT1 pathway caused by mitochondrial dysfunction in leukemia cells and inhibiting M2 macrophage polarization.

Project description:BackgroundThe ischemia-reperfusion (IR) environment during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) cardiovascular surgery is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), which lacks preventive measure and treatment. It was reported that cold inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP) can be induced under hypoxic and hypothermic stress and may have a protective effect on multiple organs. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether CIRP could exert renoprotective effect during hypothermic IR and the potential mechanisms.MethodsUtilizing RNA-sequencing, we compared the differences in gene expression between Cirp knockout rats and wild-type rats after DHCA and screened the possible mechanisms. Then, we established the hypothermic oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) model using HK-2 cells transfected with siRNA to verify the downstream pathways and explore potential pharmacological approach. The effects of CIRP and enarodustat (JTZ-951) on renal IR injury (IRI) were investigated in vivo and in vitro using multiple levels of pathological and molecular biological experiments.ResultsWe discovered that Cirp knockout significantly upregulated rat Phd3 expression, which is the key regulator of HIF-1α, thereby inhibiting HIF-1α after DHCA. In addition, deletion of Cirp in rat model promoted apoptosis and aggravated renal injury by reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and significant activation of the TGF-β1/p38 MAPK inflammatory pathway. Then, based on the HK-2 cell model of hypothermic OGD, we found that CIRP silencing significantly stimulated the expression of the TGF-β1/p38 MAPK inflammatory pathway by activating the PHD3/HIF-1α axis, and induced more severe apoptosis through the mitochondrial cytochrome c-Apaf-1-caspase 9 and FADD-caspase 8 death receptor pathways compared with untransfected cells. However, silencing PHD3 remarkably activated the expression of HIF-1α and alleviated the apoptosis of HK-2 cells in hypothermic OGD. On this basis, by pretreating HK-2 and rats with enarodustat, a novel HIF-1α stabilizer, we found that enarodustat significantly mitigated renal cellular apoptosis under hypothermic IR and reversed the aggravated IRI induced by CIRP defect, both in vitro and in vivo.ConclusionOur findings indicated that CIRP may confer renoprotection against hypothermic IRI by suppressing PHD3/HIF-1α-mediated apoptosis. PHD3 inhibitors and HIF-1α stabilizers may have clinical value in renal IRI.
