However, our research has uncovered a correlation between the prolonged administration of statins and an elevated risk of myocardial dysfunction in patients with type II diabetes mellitus (TIIDM). Here, we report the induction of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1) activation, associated lipid peroxidation, and the consequent diabetic myocardial dysfunction after statin treatment and explored the underlying mechanisms. In <em>db/db</em> mice, we observed that 40 weeks atorvastatin (5 and 10 mg/kg) and rosuvastatin (20 mg/kg) administration exacerbated diabetic myocardial dysfunction by echocardiography and cardiomyocyte contractility assay, increased myocardial inflammation and fibrosis as shown by CD68, IL-1β, Masson's staining and Collagen1A1 immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining, increased respiratory exchange ratio (RER) by metabolic cage system assessment, exacerbated mitochondrial structural pathological changes by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examination, increased deposition of lipid and glycogen by TEM, Oil-red and periodic acid-schiff stain (PAS) staining, which were corresponded with augmented levels of myocardial SREBP1 protein and lipid peroxidation marked by 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) staining. Comparable myocardial fibrosis was also observed in KK-ay and low-dose streptozotocin (STZ)-induced TIIDM mice. Elevated SREBP1 levels were observed in the heart tissues from diabetic patients, which was positively correlated with their myocardial dysfunction. To elucidate the role of statin induced SREBP1 in lipid peroxidation and lipid deposition and related mechanism, we cultured neonatal mouse primary cardiomyocytes (NMPCs) and treated them with atorvastatin (10 μM, 24 h), tracing with [U–¹³C]-glucose and evaluating for SREBP1 expression and localization. We found that statin treatment elevated de novo lipogenesis (DNL) and the levels of SREBP1 cleavage-activating protein (SCAP), reduced the interaction of SCAP with insulin-induced gene 1 (Insig1), and enhance SCAP/SREBP1 translocation to the Golgi, which facilitate SREBP1 cleavage leading to its nuclear <em>trans</em>-localization and activation in NMPCs.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) metabolism, regulated in part by nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), plays a crucial role in these pathological processes and has emerged as a potential therapeutic target. Additionally, redox signaling pathways are integral to the pathogenesis of UL, influencing the dynamics of NAD⁺ metabolism. This study sought to elucidate the regulatory functions of NAMPT and NAD⁺ metabolism, in conjunction with redox signaling, in the progression of UL, and to explore potential therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways. Evaluation of NAMPT expression in human UL tissues revealed a positive correlation between elevated NAMPT levels and increased ECM deposition, as well as the expression of stemness markers. The use of FK866 and nicotinamide (NAM), to inhibit NAMPT significantly suppressed UL cell viability and attenuated stem cell-like characteristics. Redox signaling pathways, including those associated with DNA damage, lysosomal function homeostasis, and redox-sensitive phagophore formation, were implicated in the regulation of ECM dynamics, particularly through ECM-targeted inhibition. This study highlights the pivotal roles of NAMPT, NAD⁺ metabolism, and redox signaling in the pathophysiology of UL. Targeting NAMPT, particularly through the use of inhibitors FK866 and NAM, represents a promising therapeutic approach for mitigating UL progression by modulating redox and ECM dynamics.

While the oxidation of glutaredoxins by glutathione disulfide substrates has been extensively characterized, the enzyme-substrate interactions for the reduction of <em>S</em>-glutathionylated glutaredoxins or intramolecular glutaredoxin disulfides are still poorly characterized. Here we compared the thiol-specificity for the reduction of <em>S</em>-glutathionylated glutaredoxins and the intramolecular glutaredoxin disulfide.

In contrast, the slower reduction of the partially strained intramolecular glutaredoxin disulfide involves specific interactions with both carboxylate groups of GSH at the 1st glutathione-interaction site.

Isoliquiritigenin (ISL) has been preliminarily reported to have potential neuroprotective effects on rats subjected to cerebral ischemic insult. However, the protective mechanisms of ISL have not been elucidated. This study aims to further investigate the effects of ISL-mediated neuroprotection and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism. The findings indicate that ISL treatment significantly alleviated middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)-induced cerebral infarction, neurological deficits, histopathological damage, and neuronal apoptosis in mice. <em>In vitro</em>, ISL effectively mitigated the reduction of cell viability, Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase, and MnSOD activities, as well as the degree of DNA damage induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) injury in PC12 cells. Mechanistic studies revealed that administration of ISL evidently improved redox homeostasis and restored mitochondrial function via inhibiting oxidative stress injury and ameliorating mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial fusion-fission balance, and mitophagy. Moreover, ISL facilitated the dissociation of Keap1/Nrf2, enhanced the nuclear transfer of Nrf2, and promoted the binding activity of Nrf2 with ARE. Finally, ISL obviously inhibited neuronal apoptosis by activating the Nrf2 pathway and ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction in mice. Nevertheless, Nrf2 inhibitor brusatol reversed the mitochondrial protective properties and anti-apoptotic effects of ISL both <em>in vivo</em> and <em>in vitro</em>.
