Objective: Apoptosis is a prominent form of neuron death in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion-induced injury. Accompanied with the pathogenesis, Circ_002664 is upregulated. However, its role in the neuron apoptosis and the underlying mechanisms are unknown.

Methods: In this study, HT22 cells were treated with oxygen glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R). The cell viability, apoptosis, proliferation and mitochondrial potential were examined. The expressions of interested genes, Circ_002664, miR-182-5p and Herpud1, were measured. The roles of these genes in OGD/R-induced cell injury were investigated by knockdown, overexpression alone or in combination. Additionally, the interactions between Circ_002664, miR-182-5p and Herpud1 were validated by luciferase report assay. The levels of MAP2, CHOP, Cytochrome C (CYC) and cleaved caspase-3 were determined.

Results: OGD/R treatment significantly increased cell apoptosis, decreased cell proliferation and mitochondrial potential, as well as increased Circ_002664 and Herpud1 expressions, and decreased miR-182-5p level. Circ_002664 knockdown markedly inhibited the effects by OGD/R on cell survival and altered expression of miR-182-5p and Herpud1. MiR-182-5p was observed sponged by Circ_002664 and negatively mediated its effect above mentioned, and this was by directly targeting Herpud1. Additionally, it was observed that CHOP expressions were regulated by Circ_002664/miR-182-5p/Herpud1 pathway, and in turn mediated its regulation in CYC and cleaved caspase-3.

Conclusions: In summary, our data showed that the Circ_002664 importantly contributed to neuronal cell apoptosis induced by OGD/R treatment, and this might be achieved by directly targeting miR-182-5p/Herpud1 pathway.

l-Asparaginase (l-ASNase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of l-asparagine, leading to its depletion and subsequent effects on the cellular proliferation and survival. In contrast to normal cells, malignant cells that lack asparagine synthase are extremely susceptible to asparagine deficiency. l-ASNase has been successfully employed in treating pediatric leukemias and non-Hodgkin lymphomas; however, its usage in adult patients and other types of cancer is limited due to significant side effects and drug resistance.

Chemotherapy resistance has long stood in the way of therapeutic advancement for lung cancer patients, the malignant tumor with the highest incidence and fatality rate in the world. Patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) now have a dismal prognosis due to the development of cisplatin (DDP) resistance, forcing them to use more costly second-line therapies. Therefore, overcoming resistance and enhancing patient outcomes can be achieved by comprehending the regulatory mechanisms of DDP resistance in LUAD.

Study on the Synergistic Effect of Klotho and KRAS on Reducing Ferroptosis After Myocardial Infarction by Regulating RAP1/ERK Signaling Pathway.

Appl Biochem Biotechnol

Department of Internal Medicine-Cardiovascular, Guangzhou Twelfth People's Hospital, No.1, Tianqiang Road, Tianhe District, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, 510620, China.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a coronary artery-related disease that seriously threatens human life and is the leading cause of sudden death worldwide, where a lack of nutrients and oxygen leads to an inflammatory response and death of cardiomyocytes. Ferroptosis is a form of non-apoptotic cell death associated with metabolic dysfunction, resulting in abnormal breakdown of glutamine and iron-dependent accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during metabolism. However, the molecular mechanism of ferroptosis in the pathogenesis of MI and the function of Klotho and KRAS on ferroptosis during MI remain unclear.

Novel Protective Role for Gut Microbiota-derived Metabolite PAGln in Doxorubicin-induced Cardiotoxicity.

Cardiovasc Drugs Ther

January 2025

Department of Pharmacy, The Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, 410011, Hunan, China.

Purpose: Doxorubicin (Dox) is a classic anthracycline chemotherapy drug with cause cumulative and dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. This study aimed to investigate the potential role and molecular mechanism of phenylacetylglutamine (PAGln), a novel gut microbiota metabolite, in Dox-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC).

Methods: DIC models were established in vivo and in vitro, and a series of experiments were performed to verify the cardioprotective effect of PAGln.
