An increased production of intracellular ROS, which provoked the oxidation of hemoglobin to methemoglobin, both reverted by juice extract, was instead observed. Importantly, juice extract also induced a reduction in glycated hemoglobin levels in prediabetic RBCs. Finally, juice extract blunted the overactivation of the endogenous antioxidant enzymes catalase and superoxide dismutase and prevented glutathione depletion in prediabetic RBCs. These findings contribute to clarifying cellular and molecular mechanisms related to oxidative stress and glycation events that may influence RBC and systemic homeostasis in prediabetes, identify AE1 as a sensitive biomarker of RBC structural and function alterations in prediabetes and propose finger lime juice extract as a natural antioxidant for the treatment and/or prevention of the complications associated with the prediabetic condition.</p>","PeriodicalId":9669,"journal":{"name":"Cell Biochemistry and Function","volume":"42 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cbf.4105","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141878446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By creating a cell model of GM1 gangliosidosis on the SH-SY5Y human nerve cell line, it is possible to understand the main role of this enzyme in breaking down lipid substrate and other pathophysiologic phenomena this disease. To knock-out the human <i>GLB1</i> gene, guides targeting exons 14 and 16 of the <i>GLB1</i> gene were designed using the CRISPOR and CHOP-CHOP websites, and high-efficiency guides were selected for cloning in the PX458 vector. After confirming the cloning, the vectors were transformed into DH5α bacteria and then the target vector was extracted and transfected into human nerve cells (SH-SY5Y cell line) by electroporation. After 48 h, GFP<sup>+</sup> cells were sorted using the FACS technique and homozygous (compound heterozygous) single cells were isolated using the serial dilution method and sequencing was done to confirm them. Finally, gap PCR tests, X-gal and Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining, and qPCR were used to confirm the knock-out of the human <i>GLB1</i> gene. Additionally, RNA sequencing data analysis from existing data of the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was used to find the correlation of <i>GLB1</i> with other genes, and then the top correlated genes were tested for further evaluation of knock-out effects. The nonviral introduction of two guides targeting exons 14 and 16 of the <i>GLB1</i> gene into SH-SY5Y cells led to the deletion of a large fragment with a size of 4.62 kb. In contrast to the non-transfected cell, X-gal staining resulted in no blue color in <i>GLB1</i> gene knock-out cells indicating the absence of β-galactosidase enzyme activity in these cells. Real-time PCR (qPCR) results confirmed the RNA-Seq analysis outcomes on the GEO data set and following the <i>GLB1</i> gene knock-out, the expression of its downstream genes, <i>NEU1</i> and <i>CTSA</i>, has been decreased. It has been also shown that the downregulation of <i>GLB1</i>-<i>NEU1</i>-<i>CTSA</i> complex gene was involved in suppressed proliferation and invasion ability of knock-out cells.

Subsequently, as a reactive outcome, cell death may transpire through mechanisms such as autophagy or apoptosis, particularly under prolonged circumstances. However, the cell combats such situations by evolving altered activity in their metabolic and protein level. Modulated signaling cascades help them to conquer starvation. But as in a prolonged condition, the battle that a cell has to evolve will come into and result in the form of cellular death.

This staggering figure underscores the importance of continued research and innovation in the field of nephrology to develop effective treatments and improve overall global kidney health. In current research, the polo-like kinase (Plk) family has emerged as a group of highly conserved enzyme kinases vital for proper cell cycle regulation. Plks are defined by their N-terminal kinase domain and C-terminal polo-box domain, which regulate their catalytic activity, subcellular localization, and substrate recognition. Among the Plk family members, Plk1 has garnered significant attention due to its pivotal role in regulating multiple mitotic processes, particularly in the kidneys. It is a crucial serine–threonine (Ser-Thr) kinase involved in cell division and genomic stability. In this review, we delve into the types and functions of Plks, focusing on Plk1's significance in processes such as cell proliferation, spindle assembly, and DNA damage repair.

Furthermore, the review discusses how Plk1 contributes to the development and progression of kidney diseases, emphasizing its overexpression in conditions such as acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and so forth.
