Acute interruption of blood supply to the liver and subsequent reperfusion can result in hepatocyte injury, apoptosis, and necrosis. Since the liver requires a continuous supply of oxygen for many biochemical reactions, any obstruction of blood flow can rapidly lead to hepatic hypoxia, which could quickly progress to absolute anoxia. Reoxygenation results in the increased generation of reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress, which lead to the enhanced production of proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and other signaling molecules. Consequent acute inflammatory cascades lead to significant impairment of hepatocytes and nonparenchymal cells. Furthermore, the expression of several vascular growth factors results in the heterogeneous closure of numerous hepatic sinusoids, which leads to reduced oxygen supply in certain areas of the liver even after reperfusion. Therefore, it is vital to identify appropriate therapeutic modalities to mitigate hepatic IR injury and subsequent tissue damage.

Redox lipidomics reveals that initiation of cell death is associated with extensive (hydroper)oxidation of arachidonic acid and adrenic acid in membrane phospholipids, specifically phosphatidylethanolamines and phosphatidylinositols, with SCs outperforming established ferroptosis inducers. Mechanistically, SCs effectively catalyze one-electron transfer reactions, likely via a redox cycle involving the reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) species and reversible formation of oxo-bridged dimeric complexes, as supported by cyclic voltammetry. As a result, SCs can use hydrogen peroxide to generate organic radicals but not hydroxyl radicals and oxidize membrane phospholipids and (membrane-)protective factors such as NADPH, which is depleted from cells.

The TNF-mediated biosynthesis of glutathione has been shown to protect synovial fibroblasts from ferroptosis in the hyperplastic synovium. Ferroptosis induction provides a novel therapeutic approach for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by reducing the population of synovial fibroblasts. The beginning and maintenance of synovitis in RA are significantly influenced by macrophages, as they generate cytokines that promote inflammation and contribute to the destruction of cartilage and bone. However, the vulnerability of macrophages to ferroptosis in RA remains unclear. In this study, we found that M2 macrophages are more vulnerable to ferroptosis than M1 macrophages in the environment of the arthritis synovium with a high level of iron, leading to an imbalance in the M1/M2 ratio. During ferroptosis, HMGB1 released by M2 macrophages interacts with TLR4 on M1 macrophages, which in turn triggers the activation of STAT3 signaling in M1 macrophages and contributes to the inflammatory response. Knockdown of TLR4 decreased the level of cytokines induced by HMGB1 in M1 macrophages. The ferroptosis inhibitor liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1) started at the presymptomatic stage in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model mice, and GPX4 overexpression in M2 macrophages at the onset of collagen antibody-induced arthritis (CAIA) protected M2 macrophages from ferroptotic cell death and significantly prevented the development of joint inflammation and destruction. Thus, our study demonstrated that M2 macrophages are vulnerable to ferroptosis in the microenvironment of the hyperplastic synovium and revealed that the HMGB1/TLR4/STAT3 axis is critical for the ability of ferroptotic M2 macrophages to contribute to the exacerbation of synovial inflammation in RA.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the regulatory mechanisms involved in terminating the signaling of Gα subunits from endosomes. Through structural analysis and cell-based assays, we have discovered that SNX25, a protein that targets endosomes via its PXA or PXC domain, interacts with regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins (including RGS2, RGS4, RGS8, and RGS17) in a redox-regulated manner. The interaction between SNX25 and these RGS proteins enhances their GTPase-accelerating activity towards Gα<sub>i/q</sub> and their ability to bind GDP-bound (inactive form) Gα<sub>i/q</sub>. As a result, SNX25 recruits these RGS proteins to endosomes, leading to the termination of endosomal Gα<sub>i/q</sub> signaling. Furthermore, we have found that the SNX25/RGS complex also exerts a negative regulatory effect on Gα<sub>i/q</sub> signaling from the plasma membrane.

Mechanistically, EC-S1PR2 initiated excessive mitochondrial fission and elevated ROS production via RHO/ROCK1/DRP1 pathway, leading to NLRP3 inflammasome activation and subsequent cell pyroptosis, thereby exacerbating inflammation and I/R injuries. Furthermore, RGD-peptide magnetic nanoparticles packaging <em>S1pr2-siRNA</em> to specifically knockdown S1PR2 in endothelial cells significantly ameliorated cardiac I/R injury. Taken together, our investigations demonstrate that EC-S1PR2 induces excessive mitochondrial fission, which results in NLRP3 inflammasome activation and subsequently triggers cell pyroptosis, ultimately exacerbating inflammatory responses and aggravating heart injuries following I/R.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20998,"journal":{"name":"Redox Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2213231724002222/pdfft?md5=7de6e0b57ddc62e140ded96d29a6fcf4&pid=1-s2.0-S2213231724002222-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141443255","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
