Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in the development of various tumors, including GC. In this study, we revealed that ELFN1-AS1, a lncRNA with aberrantly high expression, contributes to the proliferation and metastasis of GC. Mechanically, ELFN1-AS1 plays an oncogenic role by binding to the protein kinase domain of thousand and one amino acid protein kinase (TAOK1), a tumor suppressor in GC, and disrupting the TAOK1-STK3 interaction, leading to decreased STK3 phosphorylation. This decrease is accompanied by attenuation of the Hippo kinase cascade, resulting in reduced YAP1 phosphorylation, a crucial effector of the Hippo signaling pathway. Subsequently, the reduced YAP1 phosphorylation promotes its nuclear translocation, thereby enhancing the expression of MYC, a downstream target of the pathway and well-known oncogene. Taken together, the ELFN1-AS1/TAOK1/STK3/YAP1 axis may promote GC progression and is a promising target for GC treatment.","PeriodicalId":9735,"journal":{"name":"Cell Death Discovery","volume":"10 1","pages":"465"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11555383/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142615685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the underlying pathological mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is a critical enzyme involved in cellular metabolism and methylation regulation. This study investigated the role of NNMT in endometriosis. By analyzing datasets GSE5108, GSE7305, GSE141549, GSE23339, and GSE25628, we identified a significant overexpression of NNMT in the eutopic endometrium and ectopic lesions of endometriosis patients compared to normal endometrium. Furthermore, NNMT was upregulated in collected endometrioma specimens and isolated primary endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) compared to their respective controls. Inhibition of NNMT using JBSNF-000088 attenuated the proliferation, migration, and invasion of ESCs. In vivo, treatment of mouse models of endometriosis with JBSNF-000088 resulted in a marked reduction in lesion weight and quantity. NNMT expression in ESCs was dose-dependently upregulated by 17β-estradiol at concentrations of 1 nM, 10 nM, and 100 nM, an effect that was attenuated by 10 nM progesterone. Additionally, treating HESCs with macrophage-conditioned medium elevated NNMT expression at both mRNA and protein levels. Knockdown of NNMT impeded the proliferation, migration, and invasion of ESCs, which was paralleled by decreased phosphorylation levels of Erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 4 (ERBB4), PI3K, and AKT. Conversely, overexpressing ERBB4 mitigated the NNMT knockdown-induced decline in phosphorylated PI3K and AKT and rescued the proliferation of ESCs. Altogether, these results indicate that the overexpression of NNMT induced by estrogen and macrophage interaction modulates ESC proliferation via the NNMT-ERBB4-PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, as well as promotes cellular migration and invasion, contributing to the development of endometriosis.","PeriodicalId":9735,"journal":{"name":"Cell Death Discovery","volume":"10 1","pages":"463"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11532478/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142567418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While previous studies indicate that nucleostemin (NS) is induced by myocardial I/R injury and mitigates myocardial cell apoptosis, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, our study reveals that NS upregulation is critical for preventing cardiomyocyte death following myocardial I/R injury. Elevated NS protein levels were observed in myocardial I/R injury mouse and rat models, as well as Hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) cardiac cell lines (H9C2 cells). We identified binding sites for c-Jun and HIF-1α in the NS promoter region. Inhibition of JNK and HIF-1α led to a significant decrease in NS transcription and protein expression. Furthermore, inhibition of autophagy and NS expression promoted myocardial cell apoptosis in H/R. Notably, the cell model showed reduced LC3I transformation to LC3II, downregulated Beclin1, upregulated p62, and altered expression of autophagy-related proteins upon NS interference in H/R cells. These findings suggest that NS expression, driven by c-Jun and HIF-1α pathways, facilitates autophagy, providing protection against both myocardial I/R injury and H/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis.","PeriodicalId":9735,"journal":{"name":"Cell Death Discovery","volume":"10 1","pages":"461"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11525682/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142544032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While Nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group D member 1 (Nr1d1) is progressively recognized as pivotal regulator of cellular physiology, the role in the pathogenesis of IH-induced PH remains largely uncharted. The expression of Nr1d1 was examined in IH-induced rodent PH and in IH-treated PASMCs. To elucidate the contribution of Nr1d1 to the development of IH-induced PH, we employed siRNA to modulate Nr1d1 expression in vitro and employed serotype 1 adeno-associated virus (AAV1) in vivo. Nr1d1 levels were elevated in IH-induced rodents PH lung tissues and IH-treated PASMCs. Knocking down Nr1d1 by AAV1 effectively inhibited PH progression in chronic IH-induced PH models. Mechanistic investigations identified dual specificity phosphatase 1 (Dusp1), as a direct target that Nr1d1 trans-repressed, mediating Nr1d1's regulatory influence on Erk1/2/Drp1 signaling. Nr1d1 deficiency ameliorates mitochondrial dysfunction and fission by restoring Dusp1 dysregulation and Drp1 phosphorylation. Activation of Erk1/2 with PMA reversed the Dusp1-mediated regulation of Drp1 phosphorylation, indicating the involvement of the Erk1/2 pathway in Drp1 phosphorylation controlled by Dusp1. Meanwhile, intermittent hypoxia induced more severe PH in Dusp1 knockout mice compared with wild-type mice.

Recent studies have highlighted the role of m6A in wound healing, scar formation, and tissue remodeling. Additionally, m6A presents a unique expression pattern in pathological wounds and scars, potentially influencing wound healing and scar formation through modulating gene expression and cellular signaling, thereby serving as potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets. Targeting m6A modifications are potential strategies to enhance wound healing and reduce scar formation.

While the induction of apoptosis is recognized to play a key role in the anti-cancer effects of ITCs, the specific protein targets and associated upstream events underlying ITC-induced apoptosis remain unknown. In this study, we present a set of chemical probes that are derived from BITC, PEITC, and SFN and equipped with bioorthogonal alkynyl handles to systematically profile the target proteins of ITCs in live cancer cells. Using a competition-based quantitative chemical proteomics approach, we identify a range of candidate target proteins of ITCs enriched in biological processes such as apoptosis. We show that BID, an apoptosis regulator of the Bcl-2 family, is covalently modified by ITCs on its N-terminal cysteines. Functional characterization demonstrates that covalent binding to N-terminal cysteines of BID by PEITC results in conformational changes of the protein and disruption of the self-inhibitory interaction between N- and C-terminal regions of BID, thus unleashing the highly active C-terminal segment to exert downstream pro-apoptotic effects. Consistently, PEITC promotes the cleavage and mitochondrial translocation of BID, leading to a strong induction of apoptosis. We further show that mutation of N-terminal cysteines impairs the N- and C-terminal interaction of BID, relieving the self-inhibition and enhancing its apoptotic activity. Overall, our chemical proteomics profiling and functional studies not only reveal BID as the principal target of PEITC in mediating upstream events for the induction of apoptosis, but also uncover a novel molecular mechanism involving N-terminal cysteines within the first helix of BID in regulating its pro-apoptotic potential.","PeriodicalId":9735,"journal":{"name":"Cell Death Discovery","volume":"10 1","pages":"456"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11522290/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142544034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
