This paper aimed to identify genes associated with cuproptosis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) through machine learning, combined with single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), to screen and validate related genes. The analytical results were then experimentally verified. Two published microarray gene expression datasets (GSE65391 and GSE61635) from SLE and control peripheral blood samples were downloaded from the GEO database. The GSE65391 dataset was used as the training group, while the GSE61635 dataset served as the validation group. Differentially expressed genes from GSE65391 identified 12 differential genes. Nine diagnostic genes, considered potential biomarkers, were selected using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator and support vector machine recursive feature elimination analysis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for both the training and validation groups were used to calculate the area under the curve to assess discriminatory properties. CIBERSORT was used to assess the relationship between these diagnostic genes and a reference set of infiltrating immune cells. scRNA-seq data (GSE162577) from SLE patients were also obtained from the GEO database and analyzed. Experimental validation of the most important SLE biomarkers was performed. Twelve significantly different cuproptosis-related genes were identified in the GSE65391 training set. Immune cell analysis revealed 12 immune cell types and identified nine signature genes, including PDHB, glutaminase (GLS), DLAT, LIAS, MTF1, DLST, DLD, LIPT1, and FDX1. In the GSE61635 validation set, seven genes were weakly expressed, and two genes were strongly expressed in the treatment group. According to the ROC curves, PDHB and GLS demonstrated significant diagnostic value.

In this study, we investigated whether the adjunct use of three key cardioprotective agents could prevent cardiac injury induced by a seventh-generation cationic PAMAM dendrimer (G7). Isolated rat hearts were subjected to ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury in the presence or absence of G7 or the cardioprotective agents Losartan, epidermal growth factor (EGF), or S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP). I/R injury significantly compromised cardiac function, in terms of left ventricular (LV) hemodynamics, contractility, and vascular dynamics, which were markedly improved (P < 0.05) by the administration of Losartan, EGF, or SNAP alone, confirming their cardioprotective effects. The administration of G7 significantly worsened cardiac function recovery following I/R (P < 0.05). G7-induced impairments in cardiac and vascular dynamics were significantly improved by co-administration of Losartan, EGF, or SNAP. Treatment with G7 also significantly increased cardiac enzyme levels and infarct size, both of which were markedly reduced upon co-infusion of Losartan, EGF, or SNAP (P < 0.05). Thus, G7 deteriorates the recovery of cardiac function in isolated hearts subjected to I/R injury, which can be rescued by co-administration of Losartan, EGF, or SNAP.

Unlike natural menopause, surgical menopause occurs abruptly, without an adjustment period, and is associated with a notably higher risk of fractures, arthritis, cognitive decline, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and various metabolic disorders affecting glucose and lipid levels-all of which contribute to an increased risk of major cardiovascular events. In 2017, The North American Menopause Society recommended that, barring contraindications, HRT should be initiated in women who enter surgical menopause before age 45. If these women do not experience vasomotor symptoms or other issues, HRT should be maintained consistently at least until age 52. This guideline reflects contemporary knowledge and is the result of a multidisciplinary consensus, based on a review of existing literature and several randomized clinical trials focusing on women who have survived gynecological cancers and whose quality of life is significantly impacted by surgical or early menopause. Estrogen supplementation is particularly beneficial, as it is linked to marked improvements in quality of life, including delayed onset of chronic cardiovascular issues, reduced fracture risk, enhanced cognitive function, reduced inflammation, and improved self-esteem, as well as better social and work performance. Clinical implementation of HRT, however, requires a highly individualized approach.

We examined changes in cell morphology, proliferation, viability, and ferroptosis-related markers. The expression of NSD1, SOX9, and acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4) was analyzed, along with the enrichment of NSD1 and dimethylated lysine 36 of histone 3 (H3K36me2) on the SOX9 promoter and SOX9 on the ACSL4 promoter. Additionally, the binding relationship between SOX9 and the ACSL4 promoter sequence was analyzed. Our results revealed that NSD1 expression was reduced in KOA mouse tissues and interleukin-1β-stimulated chondrocytes. NSD1 upregulation alleviated KOA, promoted chondrocyte proliferation and viability, and inhibited ferroptosis. Mechanistically, NSD1 enhanced H3K36me2 to upregulate SOX9 expression, which in turn suppressed ACSL4 expression and ferroptosis. SOX9 inhibition partially reversed the protective effect of NSD1 overexpression. In summary, NSD1 upregulation mitigates chondrocyte ferroptosis and ameliorates KOA by modulating H3K36me2 to upregulate SOX9 and downregulate ACSL4 expression.</p>","PeriodicalId":72398,"journal":{"name":"Biomolecules & biomedicine","volume":" ","pages":"894-904"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142115559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
