Project description:Summary Sodium 4-phenylbutyrate (Na-PBA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, shows potential in mitigating acute lung injury (ALI) by addressing endothelial cell injury. In a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI mouse model, Na-PBA pretreatment reduced lung damage, pulmonary edema, and inflammatory markers, while decreasing oxidative stress and endothelial pyroptosis via the cytochrome c-caspase9-caspase3-GSDME pathway. In vitro studies with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) confirmed that Na-PBA enhanced PARK7 expression, which is crucial for its protective effects against oxidative damage and pyroptosis. The mechanism involves PARK7 stabilizing mitochondria and inhibiting cytochrome c leakage, leading to reduced caspase activation. Na-PBA's effects are mediated through upregulation of PARK7, potentially within a positive feedback loop involving NRF2. These findings identify a novel therapeutic strategy to alleviate endothelial injury in lung diseases.

Project description:As a histone deacetylase inhibitor, sodium butyrate and its derivative sodium phenylbutyrate involve in cellular events such as proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and cell cycle control via reprogramming gene expression. However, the gene associated with the cell cycle control and molecular signaling triggering cell apopotosis and death are not well elucidated. Here, we treated A549 cells,a cell line belong to the non-small cells lung cancer,with high concentration of sodium butyrate or sodium phenylbutyrate and then used microarray identified differentially-expressed mRNA during this process.

Project description:It is widely acknowledged that gasdermin family proteins, which are known as the executors of pyroptosis, undergo protease-mediated cleavage prior to inducing pyroptosis. Here, we unexpectedly discovered a non-canonical form of pyroptosis mediated by full-length GSDME (FL-GSDME) without any proteolytic cleavage. Upon intense ultraviolet (UV) irradiation-triggered DNA damage, hyperactivation of nuclear PARP1 led to extensive formation of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymers and then release to the cytoplasm.These PAR polymers activate PARP5 to catalyze GSDME PARylation, resulted in a conformational change in GSDME that relieved autoinhibition imposed by its C terminus on the N terminus. On the other hand, intense UV irradiation boosted mitochondrial fission-dependent generation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mito-ROS), further promoting cytochrome c-catalyzed peroxidation of cardiolipin. This lipid-ROS signal was then sensed by PARylated-GSDME and then induced oxidative oligomerization of GSDME, which facilitated FL-GSDME plasma membrane targeting for perforation, eventually inducing pyroptosis. Reagents that concurrently stimulate PARPs activity and lipid-ROS also induced sequential modifications i.e., PARylation and oxidation of FL-GSDME and synergistically promoted pyroptotic cell death. Overall, our findings elucidate a novel mechanism underlying cleavage-independent function of GSDME in executing cell demise, further enriching the paradigms and cognition of FL-GSDME-mediated non-canonical pyroptosis.

Project description:Acidic tumor microenvironment (TME)-evoked MRC nanoparticles (MRC NPs) co-delivering immune agonist RGX-104 and photosensitizer chlorine e6 (Ce6) are reported for pyroptosis-mediated immunotherapy. RGX-104 remodels TME by transcriptional activation of ApoE to regress myeloid-derived suppressor cells’ (MDSCs) activity, which neatly creates foreshadowing for intensifying pyroptosis. Considering Ce6-triggered photodynamic therapy (PDT) can strengthen oxidative stress and organelles destruction to increase immunogenicity, immunomodulatory-photodynamic MRC nanodrugs will implement an aforementioned two-pronged strategy to enhance gasdermin E (GSDME)-dependent pyroptosis. RNA-seq analysis of MRC at the cellular level is introduced to first elucidate the intimate relationship between RGX-104 acting on LXR/ApoE axis and pyroptosis, where RGX-104 provides the prerequisite for pyroptosis participating in antitumor therapy. Briefly, MRC with favorable biocompatibility tackles the obstacle of hydrophobic drugs delivery, and becomes a powerful pyroptosis inducer to reinforce immune efficacy. MRC-elicited pyroptosis in combination with anti-PD-1 blockade therapy boosts immune response in solid tumors, successfully arresting invasive metastasis and extending survival based on remarkable antitumor immunity. MRC may initiate a new window for immuno-photo pyroptosis stimulators augmenting pyroptosis-based immunotherapy. Owing to the transcriptome sequencing on 4T1 cells exposed to various treatment, pyroptosis mechanism of MRC was thoroughly analyzed via comparing the expression discrepancy among PBS, MRC, and MRC+L groups.

Project description:Background: Specific microglia responses are thought to contribute to the development and progression of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the phenotypic acquisition of microglial cells and their role during the underlying neuroinflammatory processes remain largely elusive. Here, according to the multiple-hit hypothesis, which stipulates that PD etiology is determined by a combination of genetics and various environmental risk factors, we investigate microglial transcriptional programs and morphological adaptations under PARK7/DJ-1 deficiency, a genetic cause of PD, during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. Methods: Using a combination of single-cell RNA-sequencing, bulk RNA-sequencing, multicolor flow cytometry and immunofluorescence analyses, we comprehensively compared microglial cell phenotypic characteristics in PARK7/DJ-1 knock-out (KO) with wildtype littermate mice following 6- or 24-hour intraperitoneal injection with LPS. For translational perspectives, we conducted corresponding analyses in human PARK7/DJ-1 mutant induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived microglia and murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). Results: By excluding the contribution of other immune brain resident and peripheral cells, we show that microglia acutely isolated from PARK7/DJ-1 KO mice display a distinct phenotype, specially related to type II interferon and DNA damage response signaling, when compared with wildtype microglia, in response to LPS. We also detected discrete signatures in human PARK7/DJ-1 mutant iPSC-derived microglia and BMDMs from PARK7/DJ-1 KO mice. These specific transcriptional signatures were reflected at the morphological level, with microglia in LPS-treated PARK7/DJ-1 KO mice showing a less amoeboid cell shape compared to wildtype mice, both at 6 and 24 hours after acute inflammation, as also observed in BMDMs. Conclusions: Taken together, our results show that, under inflammatory conditions, PARK7/DJ-1 deficiency skews microglia towards a distinct phenotype characterized by downregulation of genes involved in type II interferon signaling and a less prominent amoeboid morphology compared to wildtype microglia. These findings suggest that the underlying oxidative stress associated with the lack of PARK7/DJ-1 affects microglia neuroinflammatory responses, which may play a causative role in PD onset and progression.

Project description:A Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-inspired system capable of using ultralow-dose chemical drugs to manipulate cell death is needed to investigate the antitumour immunotherapy. Recent studies revealed pyroptosis, a proinflammatory type of cell death, could promote antitumour immune function. However, high-dose chemotherapy led to cytokine release syndrome by pyroptosis. Therefore, pyroptosis- inducing ultralow-dose chemotherapy was potential in preclinical and clinical research, but its efficacy, safety and the antitumour immune responses were not clear. Here, we established a near-infrared light controllable killing system (BIK system) by which ultralow-dose doxorubicin could be spatiotemporally transported to immunosuppressive tumour cells and mediate efficient pyroptosis. Compared with using DOX directly, the BIK system reduced total drug consumption to less than one- thirtieth the common dose in vitro. MPI imaging and fluorescence imaging showed our BIK system exhibited good tumour targeting and tumour penetration. We applied this system for pyroptosis-induced antitumor therapies, and the results showed that less than 43 µg kg-1 DOX was sufficient for GSDME-positive tumour regression with negligible injuries to major organs. Notably, the gasdermin-deficient 4T1 tumours could be controlled by combining BIK system with decitabine treatment. The antitumour immune function were proven to correlate with the impressive efficacy of pyroptosis-inducing ultralow-dose chemotherapy, and the concomitant immune memory prevented metastasis, but high-dose DOX led to poor T cells infiltration which caused immunosuppression and lung metastasis. Owing to the robust antitumour immune function induced by BIK system, advanced-stage bulky tumours could be controlled or shrunken by synergizing with anti-PD-1 therapy. This study provided new insights into the design of nanoassisted systems for activating the antitumour immune function by microstimulation; our application of the BIK system suggested that ultralow-dose chemotherapy was sufficient for inducing a robust pyroptosis-mediated antitumour immune function

Project description:Monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) deficiency is a rare genetic disease leading to a severe developmental delay. Some MCT8 deficient patients are not as severely affected than others due to residual thyroid hormone (TH) transport. Previously, we hypothesized that these patients’ mutations destabilize the MCT8 protein, which consequently will be sent for degradation. We have already demonstrated that the chemical chaperone sodium phenylbutyrate (NaPB) rescues the function of these mutants by stabilizing their protein expression in an overexpressing cell system. Here we expand our previous work and used human iPSC-derived brain microvascular endothelial-like cells (iBMECs) as a model. We could show that NaPB rescues decreased mutant MCT8 expression and restores transport function. Furthermore, we identified MCT10 as another TH transporter that contributes to T3 uptake. The decrease in mutant protein expression could be explained by the activation of components of the unfolded protein response (UPR) machinery. Increased expression after NaPB treatment is a consequence of UPR attenuation and the stabilization of MCT8 mRNA. In conclusion, we demonstrate that NaPB is suitable to stabilize pathogenic missense mutations and activate transport function in a human-derived cell model opening the possibility of repurposing the FDA-approved drug NaPB for MCT8 deficiency.
