Temporary Alleviation of MAPK by Arbutin Alleviates Oxidative Damage in the Retina and ARPE-19 Cells

ABSTRACT: Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the main diseases that causes blindness in humans and the number of cases is increasing every year, but effective treatments are not available, arbutin (ARB) has been reported to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging effects in other age-related diseases. However, whether it can help treat dry AMD remains unknown.in this study, we found 10-100 μM ARB concentration-dependently reversed the H2O2-induced viability decline in HRPECs, and ARB inhibited H2O2-induced HRPEC ROS production and apoptosis by changing the expression of antioxidant and apoptosis-related genes and proteins. Transcriptome sequencing and western blotting showed that ARB reduced ERK1/2 and P-38 phosphorylation to prevent H2O2-induced oxidation damage. We concluded ARB reversed the H2O2-induced decline in HRPEC activity, which was related to inhibition of ROS production and apoptosis. The ERK1/2 and P38 MAPK signaling pathways may have mediated this process.

Deficient Pink1 Retrograde Mitochondrial-Nrf2 Signaling Induces EMT That Is Mitigated By A Mitochondria-tropic ROS Reducing Dendrimer

Project description:Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness among the elderly, is without effective treatment for early, dry disease. Retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell degeneration is a cardinal feature of dry AMD. Given the reliance of photoreceptors on the RPE for maintaining health and vision, rejuvenating dysfunctional RPE is a logical treatment strategy. Here, the interplay between two cytoprotective pathways, Pink1 mediated mitophagy and the Nrf2 stress-response, was studied in human AMD tissue samples, RPE cells, and relevant mouse models. Pink1 immunolabeling was decreased in the RPE of early AMD eyes. The RPE from Pink1-/- mice and Pink1 deficient cultured human RPE cells displayed impaired mitophagy, decreased aerobic respiration, and increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and coincidently, developed morphological, molecular, and functional features of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). This change was triggered by novel retrograde mitochondrial to nuclear signaling that was initiated by mitochondrial ROS, which activated Nrf2 to induce TXNRD1, PI3K/AKT, and canonical EMT transcription factors Zeb1 and Snail. Nrf2 signaling was pivotal since its deficiency prevented EMT and increased cell death. A dendrimer containing N-acetyl cysteine that is tropic for the RPE and contains the mitochondrial targeting ligand Triphenyl phosphinium abrogates EMT in human RPE cells in vitro and in Pink1-/- mice. This study describes a novel interdependency of mitophagy and the Nrf2 antioxidant response in determining cell fate and introduces an RPE and mitochondrial specific ROS reducing dendrimer that can rescue RPE cells in EMT, a change recognized in early AMD.

C2C12 transcriptome changes in response to hydrogen peroxide

Project description:In muscle, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation increases with strenuous activity, chronic unloading, and inflammatory stimuli; skeletal muscle function is very sensitive to ROS; and there are redox-sensitive signaling pathways. Using myogenic cell cultures, we asked whether hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) induces adaptive changes in skeletal muscle gene expression. H2O2 downregulated or failed to induce antioxidant or apoptotic genes in the myotubes. Instead, H2O2 changed the expression of genes for cytosolic and mitochondrial enzymes, and upregulated inflammatory mediators. Finally, H2O2 had a mostly inhibitory effect on the expression of many transcription factors. The results indicate that mild oxidative stress may induce an adaptive response in skeletal muscle without antioxidant upregulation or apoptosis.

Project description:Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness in the elderly. There are two types of AMD: dry AMD and wet AMD. While laser-induced choroidal neovascularization has been used extensively in the studies of wet AMD by presenting the main features of human wet AMD, there was no established mouse model which fully recapitulates the cardinal features of human dry AMD. In this regard, lack of appropriate mouse model for dry AMD hampered the translational research on the pathogenesis and development of therapeutic agents. We recently suggested that 5XFAD mice could be a mouse model of dry AMD with regard to the amyloid beta (AÎ²) related pathology. In this study, using transmission electron microscope, we analyzed ultrastructure of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of 5XFAD mice. Of importance, aged 5XFAD mice had ultrastructural changes of RPE and Bruchâs membrane compatible with cardinal features of dry AMD, including loss of apical microvilli and basal infolding of RPE, increased thickness of Bruchâs membrane, basal laminar and linear deposits, and accumulation of lipofuscin granules and undigested photoreceptor outer segment-laiden phagosomes. Using a threshold of 1.2 fold difference, we found â564â differentially expressed genes of which â190â were up-regulated and â374â were down-regulated in the RPE complex of aged 5XFAD mice. These altered genes were implicated in the pathogenesis of AMD including inflammation and immune response-related genes and retinol metabolism-related genes. Taken together, we suggest that aged 5XFAD mice can be used for dry AMD mouse model. All 5XFAD mice used were heterozygotes with respect to the transgene, and non-transgenic wild-type littermate (WT) mice served as controls.

IL-4 protects against chemically-induced retinal degeneration in AMD mouse model via Nrf2 activation

Project description:To explore whether IL-4 could exert a novel protective role for RPE damage and attenuate the pathogenesis of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD), we established a retinal degeneration model of dry AMD by intravenous injection of NaIO3, and explored the treatment effects of intravitreal IL-4 injection. We found exogenous IL-4 protected against retinal degeneration characterized by well-preserved structures and improved retinal function. The RNA-seq analysis revealed that IL-4 treatment suppressed the essential oxidative and pro-inflammatory pathways in the degenerative retina. IL-4 induced the expression of IL-4Rα and Nrf2 for anti-oxidative defense in vivo and in vitro. Our data provides evidences that IL-4 can be a useful neuroprotective agent against retinal degeneration due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory property through Nrf2 activation. The IL-4/IL-4Rα-Nrf2 axis maybe the potential targets for the development of novel therapies for dry AMD.

Mechanisms of ROS-induced mitochondria-dependent apoptosis underlying liquid storage of goat spermatozoa

Project description:Liquid storage of spermatozoa is important for artificial insemination and herd genetic breeding. However, the extending time of storage inducing rapid decline of spermatozoa quality limits the development of this technology. The molecular mechanisms underlying liquid storage of spermatozoa remain largely unexplored. In this study, the effects of liquid storage on functional quality of spermatozoa were assessed in goat (Capra hircus). The time-dependent decline of spermatozoa motility showed a strong correlation with the significant increase of apoptosis. Moreover, apoptosis-related ultrastructural changes were observed, especially the defect in mitochondria. Meanwhile, significant decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential and expression changes of mitochondrial apoptosis-related proteins indicated mitochondrial dysfunction and activation of mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Notably, the abnormal high level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by liquid storage resulted in the oxidative damage to mitochondria and accelerated mitochondria-dependent apoptosis, which was demonstrated by addition of ROS scavenger N-acetylcysteine. Furthermore, critical differentially expressed proteins involved in mitochondria-dependent apoptosis and antioxidant defense were identified and profiled by quantitative proteomic analysis, facilitating the understanding of molecular regulation of ROS-induced mitochondria-dependent apoptosis. These outcomes provide insights into the mechanisms underlying liquid storage of goat spermatozoa and enhance the progress of semen storage technology.

The transcriptome data of immature dendritic cells were treated with hydrogen peroxide

Project description:RNA sequencing(seq-RNA) was used to analyze the underlying mechanism of immature dendritic cells (imDCs) response to extracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). The oxidative stress model of imDCswas constructed by simulating ROS with H2O2. The final H2O2 concentration was determined by CCK8 and Annexin V-FITC/ PI double staining methods. The free migration of imDCs was analyzed by cell real-time imaging. Total RNA was extracted and transcriptome sequencing was performed. Go and KEGG enrichment analysis of differential expressed genes(DEGs) was performed. Transcripts related to metabolism and skeleton regulation were screened according to the changes of differential gene expression ≥1 and FDR≤0.05. The result showed that there were no significant changes in cell viability and apoptosis of imDCs when H2O2 concentration was less than 100 μmol/L. The free migrate ability of imDCs was enhanced in ROS environment. RNA-seq data showed that 282 differentially expressed genes between the control group and the H2O2 treatment group. Among them, 225 differentially expressed genes were down-regulated, and 57 were up-regulated. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis found that these genes were involved in metabolism, cell cycle and cytoskeleton related signaling pathway. Gsta1, Gsta3，Cstdc5，Cstdc5 and Prdx1 involved in response to xenobtiotic metabolism were up-regulated. S100a8, Tm4sf19 and Ppbp involved in skeleton regulation were also up-regulated. While Nusap1, Stmn1, Kif20 and Prc1 were down-regulated. This study suggested that the activation of antioxidant system, cytoskeletal remodeling and cell cycle arrest may be involved in regulating the migration ability of imDCs in response to extracellular ROS.
