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.

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.

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.

Project description:Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) utilizes glutathione (GSH) to detoxify lipid peroxidation and
plays an essential role in inhibiting ferroptosis. As a selenoprotein, GPX4 protein synthesis is
highly inefficient and energetically costly. How cells coordinate GPX4 synthesis with nutrient
availability remains unclear. In this study, integrated proteomic and functional analyses reveal
that SLC7A11-mediated cystine uptake promotes not only GSH synthesis but also GPX4 protein synthesis. Mechanistically, cyst(e)ine activates mechanistic/mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) and promotes GPX4 protein synthesis at least partly through the mTORC1-4E-BP signaling axis. Pharmacologic inhibition of mTORC1 decreases GPX4 protein levels, sensitizes cancer cells to ferroptosis, and synergizes with ferroptosis inducers (FINs) to suppress patient-derived xenograft tumor growth in vivo. Together, our results reveal a hitherto unrecognized regulatory mechanism to coordinate GPX4 protein synthesis with cyst(e)ine availability and suggest to use the combination of mTORC1 inhibitors and FINs in cancer treatment.

Project description:CDK4/6 inhibition is the standard of care for estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer, although cytostasis is frequently observed, and new treatment strategies that enhance efficacy are required. We performed a genome-wide CRISPR screen to identify genetic determinants of CDK4/6 inhibitors sensitivity. Multiple genes involved in oxidative stress and ferroptosis modulated palbociclib sensitivity. Depletion or inhibition of GPX4 increased sensitivity to palbociclib in ER+ breast cancer models, and sensitised triple negative breast cancer models to palbociclib, with GPX4 null xenografts being highly sensitive to palbociclib. Palbociclib induced oxidative stress and disordered lipid metabolism with lipid peroxidation, leading to a ferroptosis-sensitive state. Lipid peroxidation relied on a peroxisome AGPAT3-dependent pathway in ER+ breast cancer models, rather than the classical ACSL4 pathway. Our data demonstrate that CDK4/6 inhibition creates vulnerability to ferroptosis that could be exploited through combination with GPX4 inhibitors, enhancing sensitivity to CDK4/6 inhibition in breast cancer.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease and is the leading cause of chronic disability among older people. Chondrocyte death was involved in OA pathogenesis. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent cell death associated with peroxidation of lipids. Expression of GPX4 in the OA cartilage from OA patients were significantly lower than normal cartilage.In order to analyze the mechanism of GPX4, we conducted RNA-sequencing in mouse chondrocytes with or without GPX4 knockdown.Our results showed that Gpx4 downregulation could increase the sensitivity of chondrocytes to oxidative stress and aggravate ECM degradation in chondrocytes.

Project description:Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death driven by lipid peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Endogenous PUFAs are nonconjugated PUFAs and their peroxidation proceeds via the hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) mechanism. We previously reported that lipids with conjugated double bonds undergo lipid peroxidation mostly via a different mechanism, peroxyl radical addition (PRA), and were much more readily oxidizable than nonconjugated ones. In this study, we aim to elucidate the effects of various unsaturated lipids in sensitizing ferroptosis. We found that while some peroxidation-reactive lipids, such as 7-dehydrocholesterol, vitamins D3 and A, and coenzyme Q10, suppress ferroptosis, both nonconjugated and conjugated PUFAs enhanced cell death induced by RSL3, a ferroptosis inducer. Importantly, we showed that conjugated linolenic acid (CLA 18:3) could act as a ferroptosis inducer by itself and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA 18:2) was more potent in sensitizing cells to RSL3-induced cell death than any nonconjugated PUFAs. We next sought to elucidate the mechanism underlying the different ferroptosis-inducing potency of conjugated and nonconjugated PUFAs. Lipidomics revealed that conjugated and nonconjugated PUFAs are incorporated into distinct cellular lipid species. Furthermore, the different peroxidation mechanisms predict the formation of higher levels of reactive electrophilic aldehydes from conjugated PUFAs than nonconjugated PUFAs, which was confirmed by aldehyde-trapping and mass spectrometry. RNA sequencing revealed that protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum and proteasome are among the most significantly upregulated pathways in cells treated with CLA 18:3, suggesting increased ER stress and activation of unfolded protein response. Significantly, using click chemistry, we observed increased protein adduction by oxidized lipids in cells treated with an alkynylated CLA 18:2 probe. These results suggest that protein damage by lipid electrophiles is a key step in 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.
