Targeting GPX4-mediated ferroptosis alleviates liver injury in a rat model of intestinal failure-associated liver disease

ABSTRACT: Background: Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is a common complication of long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Ferroptosis, as an iron-dependent regulated cell death, has been shown to play an important role in the development of several liver diseases. This study focuses on investigating whether the ferroptosis phenomenon is present in TPN-induced IFALD and further exploring the potential regulatory mechanisms. Methods: Ferroptosis hallmarkers were measured in children with short bowel syndrome (SBS) who had long-term PN use and caused IFALD. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were used to establish a rat model of IFALD with a concomitant ferroptosis inhibition intervention using liproxstain-1. The mir-431 lineage was identified as a potential upstream regulatory mir-RNA by mir-RNA sequencing. HepG2 and 293T cell line was used to demonstrate that mir-431 regulates ferroptosis through the GPX4 pathway at the cellular level in vitro. Results: Ferroptosis is upregulated in liver of children with IFALD. Liproxstain-1 downregulates ferroptosis in a rat model of IFALD and attenuates hepatic steatosis through the lipid metabolism pathway. In vitro HepG2 and 293T cell experiments reveal that mir-431 affects ferroptosis by regulating GPX4 protein. Conclusions: Ferroptosis plays an important role in the development of IFALD. Liproxstain-1 inhibits ferroptosis and attenuates hepatic steatosis in a rat model of IFALD through the lipid metabolism pathway. Mir-431 negatively regulates GPX4 protein-induced ferroptosis.

Pre-treatment of Interferon-α stimulates DHX58 to prevent hepatic ferroptosis

Project description:Characterized by lethal iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation, ferroptosis plays critical roles in liver injury, especially caused by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) of hepatic inflow occlusion during liver operation. However, the lack of effective and safe clinical precautionary measure is still the main problem in preventing hepatic ferroptosis. Here, we found that the excessive production of reactive oxygen species could decrease the expression of Interferon (IFN)-stimulated gene DExH-box helicase 58 (DHX58) in hepatocytes, and then promote hepatic ferroptosis, while pre-treatment using IFN-α increased DHX58 expression and prevented ferroptosis during I/R injury. Mechanistically, DHX58 with RNA-binding activity could constitutively associate the mRNA of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a crucial ferroptosis suppressor, and then recruit the m6A reader YT521-B homology domain containing 2 (YTHDC2) to promote the translation of Gpx4 mRNA in m6A-dependent manner, thus enhancing GPX4 protein level and preventing hepatic ferroptosis. Therefore, we provide mechanistic evidence for the IFN-stimulated DHX58 in promoting the translation of m6A-modified Gpx4 mRNA, and suggest the promising clinical potential of IFN-α pre-treatment in the prevention of hepatic ferroptosis.

Autophagy of OTUD5 Destabilizes GPX4 to Confer Ferroptosis-Dependent Kidney Injury

Project description:Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent programmed cell death associated with severe kidney diseases, linked to decreased glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). However, the spatial distribution of renal GPX4-mediated ferroptosis and the molecular events causing GPX4 reduction during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) remain largely unknown. Using spatial transcriptomics, we identify that GPX4 is situated at the interface of the inner cortex and outer medulla, a hyperactive ferroptosis site post-I/R injury. We show that OTU deubiquitinase 5 (OTUD5) is a GPX4-binding protein that confers ferroptosis resistance by stabilizing GPX4. During I/R, ferroptosis is induced by mTORC1-mediated autophagy, causing OTUD5 degradation and subsequent GPX4 decay. Functionally, OTUD5 deletion intensifies renal tubular cell ferroptosis and exacerbates acute kidney injury, while AAV-mediated OTUD5 delivery mitigates ferroptosis and promotes renal function recovery from I/R injury. In this work, our study highlights a new autophagy-dependent ferroptosis module: hypoxia/ischemia-induced OTUD5 autophagy triggers GPX4 degradation, offering a potential therapeutic avenue for I/R-related kidney diseases.

Salidroside Mitigates Oligoasthenospermia by Attenuating Ferroptosis-mediated Lipid Peroxidation via NF-κB Pathway Inhibition

Project description:Aims: Oligoasthenozoospermia (OAS) causes male infertility. However, the etiology and pathogenesis of OAS are unclear, and specific therapy is lacking. Ferroptosis contributes to the progress of various diseases; however, its role in OAS is unknown. This study aimed to explore the mechanism of OAS and to find effective treatments. Results: Human OAS sperm exhibits biochemical and morphological hallmarks of ferroptosis. Ferroptosis represents a crucial role in OAS induced by cyclophosphamide (CP) of mice in vivo, and inhibiting ferroptosis can effectively improve OAS. Further search for safe, stable and clinically applicable of natural compounds found Salidroside （Sal）improved the sperm quality of OAS by attenuates ferroptosis-mediated lipid peroxidation in germ cells by increasing the expression of GPX4, and thus ameliorates OAS in vivo. To further investigate at which stage of spermatogenesis Sal acts, the result revealed that Sal increases the expression of GPX4 starting from primary spermatocytes gradually by immunohistochemistry. In vitro, we verified the above results in vivo using a mouse spermatocytes cell line, GC-2 cells. Mechanistically, integrated RNA-Seq and bioinformatic analysis showed that Sal likely promotes GPX4 expression by inhibiting NF-κB Pathway, thereby inhibiting ferroptosis. Innovation: Our findings support the view that ferroptosis plays an important role in patients with OAS, and provide convincing evidence that Sal ameliorates OAS by inhibiting ferroptosis-mediated lipid peroxidation via NF-κB pathway suppression. Conclusions: Thus, ferroptosis plays an important role in OAS, and Sal could ameliorate OAS by attenuating ferroptosis-mediated lipid peroxidation via NF-κB pathway inhibition.

Ferroptotic cell death triggered by conjugated linolenic acids is mediated by ACSL1

Project description:Ferroptosis is associated with lipid hydroperoxides generated by oxidation of polyunsaturated acyl chains. Lipid hydroperoxides are reduced by glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and GPX4 inhibitors induce ferroptosis. However, the therapeutic potential of triggering ferroptosis in cancer cells with polyunsaturated fatty acids is unknown. We identified conjugated linoleates including α-eleostearic acid (αESA) as novel ferroptosis inducers. αESA did not alter GPX4 activity but was incorporated into cellular lipids and promoted lipid peroxidation and cell death in diverse cancer cell types. αESA-triggered death was mediated by acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain isoform 1, which promoted αESA incorporation into neutral lipids including triacylglycerols. Interfering with triacylglycerol biosynthesis suppressed ferroptosis triggered by αESA but not by GPX4 inhibition. Orally administered tung oil, naturally rich in αESA, limited tumor growth and metastasis with transcriptional changes consistent with ferroptosis. Overall, these findings illuminate a novel approach to ferroptosis, complementary to GPX4 inhibition, with therapeutic potential.

Gpx4 regulates iNKT cell homeostasis and function by preventing lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis

Project description:Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a group of innate like T cells that plays important roles in immune homeostasis and activation. We found that iNKT cells, compared to CD4+ T cells, have significantly higher levels of lipid peroxidation in both mice and humans. Proteomic analysis also demonstrated that iNKT cells express higher levels of Glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4), a major antioxidant enzyme that reduces lipid peroxidation and prevents ferroptosis. T cell specific deletion of Gpx4 reduces iNKT cell population, most prominently the IFNg producing NKT1 subset. RNAseq analysis revealed IFNg signaling, cell cycle regulation, as well as mitochondrial function are perturbed by Gpx4 deletion in iNKT cells. Consistently, we detected impaired cytokine production, elevated cell proliferation and cell death, and accumulation of lipid peroxides and mitochondrial ROS in Gpx4 KO iNKT cells. Ferroptosis inhibitor, iron chelator, vitamin E and vitamin K2 can prevent ferroptosis induced by Gpx4 deficiency in iNKT cells and ameliorate the impaired function of iNKT cells due to Gpx4 inhibition. Lastly, vitamin E rescued iNKT cell population in Gpx4 KO mice. Altogether, our findings reveal the critical role of Gpx4 in regulating iNKT cell homeostasis and function, through controlling lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

Sub-lethal stimulation of ferroptosis leads to trophoblast dysfunction

Project description:Ferroptosis is a recently identified program of regulated cell death, defined by excessive accumulation of hydroperoxy-arachidonoyl (C20:4)- or adrenoyl (C22:4)- phosphatidyl-ethanolamine (OOH-PE). The selenium-dependent glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inhibits ferroptosis, converting unstable ferroptotic lipid hydroperoxides to non-toxic lipid alcohols. The effect of GPX4 ablation is divergent among cells and tissues, suggesting that additional regulators may guard trophoblasts against ferroptosis. While placental oxidative stress and lipotoxicity are hallmarks of placental dysfunction, the possible role of ferroptosis in placental function has not been hitherto investigated. Here we found that placental dysfunction is associated with ferroptosis, and that inhibition of GPX4 causes trophoblast injury and ferroptosis in vitro and in vivo during mouse pregnancy. Importantly, we uncover a role for the phospholipase PLA2G6 (PNPLA9, iPLA2beta), known to metabolizes OOH-PE to lyso-PE and oxidized fatty acid, in mitigating ferroptosis induced by GPX4 inhibition in vitro or by hypoxia-reoxygenation injury in vivo. Together, we identified ferroptosis in the human and mouse placenta, and established a novel role for PLA2G6 in attenuating trophoblastic ferroptosis. Our data provide mechanistic insights to the ill-defined entity of placental lipotoxicity, and may inspire new therapeutic strategies that target PLA2G6 as a means to modulate ferroptosis in placental and non-placental tissue.

CRISPR activation screens identify the SWI-SNF ATPases as suppressors of ferroptosis

Project description:Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent cell death mechanism characterized by an accumulation of toxic lipid peroxides and membrane rupture. The glutathione dependent enzyme, GPX4 (glutathione peroxidase 4), prevents ferroptosis by reducing these lipid peroxides into non-toxic lipid alcohols. Ferroptosis induction by GPX4 inhibition has emerged as a vulnerability of cancer cells, thus highlighting the need to identify ferroptosis regulators that may be exploited therapeutically. Through genome-wide screens and a series of genetic, genomic, and quantitative imaging approaches, we identify the SWI-SNF ATPases BRM and BRG1 as ferroptosis suppressors. Mechanistically, they directly bind to and catalytically increase chromatin accessibility at NRF2 target loci, thus boosting NRF2 transcriptional output. This primes cells to counter lipid peroxidation and confers resistance to GPX4 inhibition and ferroptosis. Importantly, we demonstrate that the BRM/BRG1-ferroptosis connection can be leveraged to enhance the paralog dependency of BRG1-mutant lung cancer cells on BRM, especially in lines that are less sensitive to BRM inhibition or degradation. Our data reveal ferroptosis induction as a potential avenue for broadening the efficacy of BRM degraders/inhibitors and define a specific genetic context for exploiting GPX4 dependency.
