lncR-GAS5 upregulates the splicing factor SRSF10 to impair endothelial autophagy, leading to atherogenesis / 医学前沿

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical role in the regulation of atherosclerosis. Here, we investigated the role of the lncRNA growth arrest-specific 5 (lncR-GAS5) in atherogenesis. We found that the enforced expression of lncR-GAS5 contributed to the development of atherosclerosis, which presented as increased plaque size and reduced collagen content. Moreover, impaired autophagy was observed, as shown by a decreased LC3II/LC3I protein ratio and an elevated P62 level in lncR-GAS5-overexpressing human aortic endothelial cells. By contrast, lncR-GAS5 knockdown promoted autophagy. Moreover, serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 10 (SRSF10) knockdown increased the LC3II/LC3I ratio and decreased the P62 level, thus enhancing the formation of autophagic vacuoles, autolysosomes, and autophagosomes. Mechanistically, lncR-GAS5 regulated the downstream splicing factor SRSF10 to impair autophagy in the endothelium, which was reversed by the knockdown of SRSF10. Further results revealed that overexpression of the lncR-GAS5-targeted gene miR-193-5p promoted autophagy and autophagic vacuole accumulation by repressing its direct target gene, SRSF10. Notably, miR-193-5p overexpression decreased plaque size and increased collagen content. Altogether, these findings demonstrate that lncR-GAS5 partially contributes to atherogenesis and plaque instability by impairing endothelial autophagy. In conclusion, lncR-GAS5 overexpression arrested endothelial autophagy through the miR-193-5p/SRSF10 signaling pathway. Thus, miR-193-5p/SRSF10 may serve as a novel treatment target for atherosclerosis.

Objective:To preliminarily investigate the effect of circIGF2BP3 on autophagy in photoaged dermal fibroblasts.Methods:Human dermal fibroblasts were isolated from circumcised foreskin tissues from 6 children in the Department of Urological Surgery, Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. An ultraviolet A (UVA) -induced photoaged human dermal fibroblast model (UVA radiation group) was established by repeated UVA radiation at a dose of 10 J/cm 2 for 14 consecutive days, and human dermal fibroblasts receiving no treatment served as control group. The photoaged cell model was verified by β-galactosidase staining, Western blot analysis for determining P21 protein expression, and cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) assay for evaluating cell viability. Moreover, Western blot analysis was performed to determine the protein expression of autophagy-related proteins P62, microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) -Ⅰand LC3-Ⅱ in photoaged human dermal fibroblasts, and real-time quantitative RCR (qRT-PCR) to verify the differential expression of circIGF2BP3 between photoaged and normal human dermal fibroblasts. Furthermore, circIGF2BP3 was biologically annotated. Some cultured primary human dermal fibroblasts were divided into 4 groups: empty vector group transfected with an empty vector, UVA + empty vector group transfected with an empty vector followed by repeated UVA radiation, circIGF2BP3 group transfected with a circIGF2BP3-overexpressing lentiviral vector, UVA + circIGF2BP3 group transfected with a circIGF2BP3-overexpressing lentiviral vector followed by repeated UVA radiation. Western blot analysis was performed to determine the expression of autophagy-related proteins. Statistical analysis was carried out by using t test, one-way analysis of variance and least significant difference- t test. Results:Compared with the control group, the UVA radiation group showed significantly increased proportions of β-galactosidase-positive cells (61.33% ± 5.78% vs. 6.37% ± 0.32%, t = 9.49, P < 0.01) and P21 expression (1.25 ± 0.03 vs. 1.00 ± 0.05, t = 4.26, P < 0.05), but significantly decreased cell viability (74.33% ± 3.48% vs. 100%, t = 7.38, P < 0.01). Moreover, the P62 expression and LC3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ ratio were significantly higher in the UVA radiation group than in the control group (both P < 0.05). The relative expression of circIGF2BP3 was 0.72 ± 0.04 in the photoaged human dermal fibroblasts, which was significantly lower than that in the normal human dermal fibroblasts (1.00 ± 0.03, t = 5.46, P < 0.01). The P62 expression and LC3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ ratio were significantly lower in the circIGF2BP3 group (0.60 ± 0.01, 0.71 ± 0.01, respectively) than in the empty vector group (1.00 ± 0.02, 1.00 ± 0.01, t = 16.25, 2.75, P < 0.01, < 0.05, respectively), and lower in the UVA + circIGF2BP3 group (1.05 ± 0.02, 2.04 ± 0.05, respectively) than in the UVA + empty vector group (1.31 ± 0.02, 2.72 ± 0.14, t = 10.493, 6.472, respectively, both P < 0.01) . Conclusion:circIGF2BP3 can regulate autophagy in UVA-induced photoaged dermal fibroblasts, which provides a new potential therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of skin photoaging.

Preparation of mitochondrial targeted calcium arsenite/doxorubicin lipid nanoparticles and the in vitro study in reversing tumor drug resistance / 药学学报

This study aims at the critical role of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in tumor drug resistance, taking advantage of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) dependence of P-gp mediated drug transport and efflux across the cell membrane. Mitochondrial targeted calcium arsenite/doxorubicin (DOX) lipid nanoparticles were constructed via hydrothermal method and thin-film dispersion method for reversing tumor drug resistance. The results showed that the lipid nanoparticles were uniform in size and well dispersed with a mean particle size of (261 ± 7) nm, zeta potential of (-9.6 ± 1.3) mV. The DOX loading efficiency and encapsulation efficiency were 22.6% and 84.0%. The in vitro drug release profile was pH-dependent; the drug accumulation at mitochondria was significantly increased, which then caused overload of calcium and inhibition of P-gp and ATP, thereby reversing tumor drug resistance. The simultaneously released arsenite ion and DOX could synergistically kill the tumor cells. In summary, the lipid nanoparticles prepared in this study have uniform particle size, high drug loading efficiency and encapsulation efficiency, excellent colloidal stability, pH responsiveness, and impressive ability to reverse tumor drug resistance, which may hold great potential in further clinical applications.

@#AIM:To investigate the dry eye symptoms and the stability changes of tear film after correction of myopia by laser-assisted <i>in situ</i> keratomileusis(LASIK)and laser epithelial keratomileusis(LASEK)with the use of 0.1% sodium hyaluronate(HA).<p>METHODS:A total of 230 myopia patients(460 eyes)were divided into LASIK group and LASEK group from February 2017 to December 2017. Each operation group was randomly assigned to 0.1% HA treatment subgroup and HA-free subgroup. Both subgroups were instructed to apply gatifloxacin(0.3%)and loteprednol(0.5%)after the corneal refractive surgery. The changes of dry eye symptom score, corneal perceptual reaction, corneal fluorescein staining(FL), basic Schirmer Ⅰ test(SⅠt)and tear film break-up time(BUT)were observed in different time points.<p>RESULTS:There were significant differences in FL, dry eye symptom score and corneal perceptual response between the 0.1% HA treatment group and HA-free group at 1wk, 1, 3 and 6mo after operation both in LASIK and LASEK patients(<i>P</i><0.05). BUT after operation in each group was significantly deceased at 1wk compared with preoperative level. Other observation time points after surgery of BUT and each postoperative level of SⅠt were still within the normal range although lower than the preoperative levels. The subjective symptoms of dry eyes, tear film stability and corneal surface perception of LASEK patients were better than LASIK patients especially at 1wk, 1 and 3mo after surgery.<p>CONCLUSION:These two kinds of refractive surgery may cause different degrees of dry eye symptoms. These symptoms in the LASEK group were lighter than that in the LASIK group in the early postoperative period. The early adequate use of preservative-free 0.1% HA could effectively promote the corneal repair and be greatly helpful for postoperative dry eye symptoms.

Effect of Sanhuang Xiexintang in Inhibiting 7-Ketocholesterol-induced Endothelial Disfunctional by NIRP3 Inflammasome Pathway / 中国实验方剂学杂志

<b>Objective::To study whether Sanhuang Xiexintang (SHXXT) can restore endothelial function by inhibiting the activation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NIRP3) induced by 7-ketocholesterol (7-keto) in vascular endothelial cells. <b>Method::The aortic rings of mice were cultured in normal group, model (7-keto) group, SHXXT groups (1%, 2% and 5% drug-containing serum). Vasodilation function of mice was observed. Microvascular endothelial cells were cultured according to the above experimental groups, and NIRP3 inhibitor isoglycyrrhizin (ISO) group, was also set. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), NIRP3, cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1 (Caspase-1), interleukin-1<italic>β</italic> (IL-1<italic>β</italic>) protein. In addition, nitric oxide (NO) quantitative kit was used to detect the concentration of NO. <b>Result::Compared with the normal group, the endothelium-dependent vasodilation function of vascular rings was significantly reduced in model group (<italic>P</italic><0.01), and the drug group significantly restored the endothelium-dependent vasodilation function in a concentration-dependent manner (<italic>P</italic><0.05, <italic>P</italic><0.01). Meanwhile, microvascular endothelial cells were also studied. Compared with the normal group, the content of eNOS protein in the model group decreased (<italic>P</italic><0.05), while the concentration of NO decreased significantly (<italic>P</italic><0.01). After treatment with SHXXT serum, eNOS and NO could be restored, with significant differences in the concentration of NO with 5% (<italic>P</italic><0.05) and 10% (<italic>P</italic><0.01) SHXXT serum. At the same time, the expressions of NIRP3 (<italic>P</italic><0.05), cle-Caspase-1 activation (<italic>P</italic><0.01) and IL-1<italic>β</italic> production (<italic>P</italic><0.01) in endothelium were significantly increased under 7-keto stimulation, and the SHXXT serum could significantly inhibit the expression and activation of relevant proteins. Subsequently, endothelial cells were treated with NIRP3 inhibitor ISO. Compared with the model group, eNOS expression increased, and NO concentration increased significantly (<italic>P</italic><0.01) after treatment with ISO, but ISO had no synergistic effect on SHXXT serum. <b>Conclusion::SHXXT can improve endothelium-dependent vascular dysfunction induced by 7-keto, which is achieved by NO signaling pathway mediated by inhibiting the activation of endothelial NIRP3-related proteins.
