Published: August 2021
Introduction: This study aims to determine whether high glucose condition and dynamic O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification can promote the proliferation and migration of human retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMECs) and whether Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) could mediate the glucose and O-GlcNAc-driven proliferation and migration of HRMECs.
Research Design And Methods: Western blot analysis was used to detect the O-GlcNAc modification level and RUNX1 level in cells and retina tissues, cell growth was studied by cell counting kit-8 assay, cell proliferation was detected by immunofluorescence staining. Then, cell migration and tube formation were investigated by scratch-wound assay, Transwell assay, and tube-forming assay. The changes of retinal structure were detected by H&E staining. The O-GlcNAc modification of RUNX1 was detected by immunoprecipitation.
Results: High glucose increases pan-cellular O-GlcNAc modification and the proliferation and migration of HRMECs. Hence, O-GlcNAc modification is critical for the proliferation and migration of HRMECs. RUNX1 mediates the glucose and O-GlcNAc-driven proliferation and migration in HRMECs. RUNX1 can be modified by O-GlcNAc, and that the modification is enhanced in a high glucose environment.
Conclusions: The present study reveals that high glucose condition directly affects retinal endothelial cells (EC) function, and O-GlcNAc modification is critical for the proliferation and migration of HRMECs, RUNX1 may take part in this mechanism, and maybe the function of RUNX1 is related to its O-GlcNAc modification level, which provides a new perspective for studying the mechanism of RUNX1 in diabetic retinopathy.

Protein GlcNAcylation is a prevalent and dynamic post-translational modification that targets a multitude of nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins. Through the modification of diverse substrates, GlcNAcylation plays a pivotal role in essential cellular processes, including transcription, translation, and protein homeostasis. Dysregulation of GlcNAc homeostasis has been implicated in a variety of diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that severely affects the gastrointestinal tract and is difficult to cure. This study explored the mechanism by which human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (HucMSC-Ex) alleviate IBD through O-GlcNAc glycosylation modification and the expression of related proteins. The study analyzed the effects of HucMSC-Ex on the inhibition of pro-inflammatory factors and promotion of intestinal epithelial cells regeneration in vitro and in vivo, with a focus on the role of the O-GlcNAc glycosylation of the RACK1 protein.

Autophagy is a "self-eating" biological process that degrades cytoplasmic contents to ensure cellular homeostasis. Its response to stimuli occurs in two stages: Within a few to several hours of exposure to a stress condition, autophagic flow rapidly increases, which is mediated by post-translational modification (PTM). Subsequently, the transcriptional program is activated and mediates the persistent autophagic response.

Aims: Excessive chondrocyte hypertrophy is a common feature in cartilage degeneration which is susceptible to joint overloading, but the relationship between mechanical overloading and chondrocyte hypertrophy still remains elusive. The aim of our study was to explore the mechanism of mechanical compression-induced chondrocyte hypertrophy.
Methods: In this study, the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) degeneration model was built through forced mandibular retrusion (FMR)-induced compression in TMJ.
