Recent studies suggest that cerebral hypoperfusion is an early symptom of AD/ADRD. Dual-specificity protein phosphatase 5 (DUSP5) has been implicated in several pathological conditions, including pulmonary hypertension and cancer, but its role in AD/ADRD remains unclear. The present study builds on our previous findings, demonstrating that inhibition of ERK and PKC leads to a dose-dependent dilation of the middle cerebral artery and penetrating arteriole, with a more pronounced effect in <i>Dusp5</i> KO rats. Both ERK and PKC inhibitors resulted in a significant reduction of myogenic tone in vessels from <i>Dusp5</i> KO rats. <i>Dusp5</i> KO rats exhibited stronger autoregulation of the surface but not deep cortical cerebral blood flow. Inhibition of ERK and PKC significantly enhanced the contractile capacity of vascular smooth muscle cells from both strains. Finally, a significant improvement in learning and memory was observed in <i>Dusp5</i> KO rats 24 hours after initial training. Our results suggest that altered vascular reactivity in <i>Dusp5</i> KO rats may involve distinct mechanisms for different vascular beds, and DUSP5 deletion could be a potential therapeutic target for AD/ADRD. Further investigations are necessary to determine the effects of DUSP5 inhibition on capillary stalling, blood-brain barrier permeability, and neurodegeneration in aging and disease models.</p>","PeriodicalId":73897,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy and pharmacology research","volume":"7 2","pages":"49-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10430881/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10039022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Characterization of Mitotic Phenotypes Associated with a MYC Synthetic Lethal Compound","authors":"Qiong Shi","doi":"10.26502/fjppr.082","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.26502/fjppr.082","url":null,"abstract":"Therapeutic targeting of MYC directly has proven difficult, prompting indirect strategies using a synthetic lethal drug. Here, we characterize one such drug dimethylfasudil (diMF), a rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor. But this diMF activity is not linked to the synthetic lethal interaction with MYC. Instead, this compound induced multiple cell cycle-related liabilities. These included the early mitotic arrest of cycling cells followed by mitotic catastrophe and the induction of polyploidy in cells that do manage to pass through mitosis. As early as prometaphase, we noted diminished staining for BUB1 kinase, which binds to kinetochores and regulates the mitotic spindle checkpoint and chromosome congression. Kinetochore proteins, such as Centromere Protein F (CENP-F), failed to localize at kinetochores in early mitosis, confirming a deficit in centromere assembly. This, presumably, contributed to the development of anomalies in chromosome segregation in cells treated with diMF. In anaphase cells, the protein regulator of cytokinesis 1 (PRC1), failed to be recruited to the midzone, leading to a cascade of defects that included failed recruitment of the chromosomal passenger protein complex, the central spindlin complex, and polo-like-kinase 1 (PLK1). These observations correlate well with the cell death induced by diMF, which may serve as a prototype MYC synthetic lethal compound to explore synthetic lethal therapy or as a scaffold upon which to build superior compounds. The phenotypes described here serve as examples of MYC synthetic lethal drug effects that can be used to explore and maximize drug discovery programs.","PeriodicalId":73897,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacy and pharmacology research","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135843645","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}
