The aim of this study is to get better understanding of microglial mitophagy in PD. 1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyidine (MPTP)-induced PD mouse model was established and validated by behavior tests. Western blot and immunofluorescent (IF) showed that autophagy was enhanced in MPTP-induced PD mice. IF, qRT-PCR, western blot and co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) also revealed that silencing of Hsp90α protected against mitophagy in PD mice. In microglia/DA neurons co-culture system, ELISA assay, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), JC-1 staining, measurement of ATP content and Annexin V/PI staining showed that lack of Hsp90α in MPTP-treated microglia attenuated DA neuronal death via suppressing mitophagy. IF staining and co-IP confirmed that Hsp90α formed a complex with AHSA1, and this complex targeted the mitochondrial molecular switch TOMM70 in microglia. Hsp90α inhibitor geldanamycin (GA) and AHSA1 knockdown further revealed that AHSA1/Hsp90α complex regulated microglial mitophagy by targeting TOMM70 in MPTP-treated microglia and PD mice.

This review provides a brief overview of these major alcohol-induced mechanisms of skeletal muscle dysfunction. Additionally, the review examines the current literature on alcohol-mediated skeletal muscle maladaptations in the context of comorbidities such as aging, alcohol-related liver disease, systemic and diet-induced metabolic dysregulation, cancer cachexia, and musculoskeletal pain. While alcohol-induced skeletal muscle alterations may function as both the cause and consequence of these comorbid conditions, critical research gaps remain, particularly in the need for systematic clinical studies complemented by preclinical mechanistic research. Notably, 40-60% of people with at-risk alcohol use exhibit skeletal muscle maladaptations, yet data on associated healthcare or productivity loss costs are lacking.

Here, those studies were extended to investigate alterations in osteoclasts development, which, in postnatal life, differentiate from HSPCs and play a critical role in maintaining bone homeostasis. Analysis using spectral flow cytometry revealed a skewing of HSPCs towards granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMPs) within the CAC group, concordant with an increased number of colony-forming unit-granulocyte/macrophage (CFU-GM) colonies. Additionally, HSPCs from animals in the CAC group incubated with M-CSF (macrophage colony-stimulating factor) and RANKL (Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor-κB Ligand) were more likely to differentiate into osteoclasts, as evidenced by increased Tartrate-Resistant Acid Phosphatase (TRAP) staining and bone resorption activity. Moreover, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of differentiated HSPCs identified osteoclast-related clusters in the CAC group with enhanced gene expression in pathways associated with cellular response to stimuli, membrane trafficking, and vesicle-mediated transport.

Using transwell assay, we also demonstrated a novel function of CD5L on promoting migration of natural killer T cells. This effect is independent of CD36, the characterized receptor of CD5L. This effect is also observed with liver macrophages, which are the cellular source for CD5L, and blocking CD5L attenuates natural killer T cell migration induced by liver macrophages. Finally, we showed that plasma levels of CD5L correlate with poor patient response to immune check point therapy that is dependent on response of T-cell populations.
