ABSTRACT
Abstract Chromatin remodeling enzymes are important "writers'', "readers'' and "erasers'' of the epigenetic code. These proteins are responsible for the placement, recognition, and removal of molecular marks in histone tails that trigger structural and functional changes in chromatin. This is also the case for histone deacetylases (HDACs), i.e., enzymes that remove acetyl groups from histone tails, signaling heterochromatin formation. Chromatin remodeling is necessary for cell differentiation processes in eukaryotes, and fungal pathogenesis in plants includes many adaptations to cause disease. Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid. is a nonspe-cific, necrotrophic ascomycete phytopathogen that causes charcoal root disease. M. phaseolina is a frequent and highly destructive pathogen in crops such as common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), particularly under both water and high temperature stresses. Here, we evaluated the effects of the classical HDAC inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) on M. phaseolina in vitro growth and virulence. During inhibition assays, the growth of M. phaseolina in solid media, as well as the size of the microsclerotia, were reduced (p <0.05), and the colony morphology was remark-ably affected. Under greenhouse experiments, treatment with TSA reduced (p <0.05) fungal virulence in common bean cv. BAT 477. Tests of LIPK, MAC1 and PMK1 gene expression during the interaction of fungi with BAT 477 revealed noticeable deregulation. Our results provide additional evidence about the role of HATs and HDACs in important biological processes of M. phaseolina.
Resumen Las enzimas remodeladoras de la cromatina son «escritores¼, «lectores¼ y «borradores¼ importantes del código epigenético. Estas proteínas son responsables de la localización, el reconocimiento y la remoción de las marcas moleculares sobre las terminaciones de las histonas que desencadenan cambios funcionales y estructurales en la cromatina. Es el caso de las desacetilasas de histonas (HDAC), enzimas que remueven grupos acetilo de las «colas¼ de las histonas, señalizando la formación de heterocromatina. La anterior es una actividad necesaria en los procesos de diferenciación celular de los eucariotas, y se conoce que la patogénesis fúngica en las plantas requiere de adaptaciones diversas para ocasionar enfermedad. Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid. es un ascomiceto fitopatógeno, necrótrofo e inespecífico, causante de la pudrición carbonosa. Este es un hongo frecuente y altamente destructivo en cultivos como fríjol común (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), particularmente bajo estrés hídrico y térmico. En este trabajo evaluamos los efectos del inhibidor de HDAC clásicas tricostatina A (TSA) sobre el crecimiento in vitro y la virulencia de M. phaseolina. El TSA redujo el crecimiento de M. phaseolina en medio sólido y el tamano de los microesclerocios (p < 0,05), lo que afectó la morfología colonial. En invernadero, el tratamiento con TSA disminuyó (p<0,05) la gravedad de la infección en la variedad de frijol BAT 477. La expresión de los genes de patogenicidad LIPK, MAC1 y PMK1 durante la interacción del hongo con la planta reveló una desregulación importante. Estos resultados proporcionan evidencia adicional del papel que cumplen las HDAC en la regulación de procesos biológicos fundamentales de M. phaseolina. © 2023 Asociación Argentina de Microbiología.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A(TSA) on the lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced injury and apoptosis of human microvascular endothelial cell(HMEC).Methods:HMECs were used as research cells to establish LPS-induced septic cell model, which were divided into three groups according to different treatments: control group (150 μL of phosphate buffer), LPS group (150 μL of 5 μg/mL LPS), LPS+ TSA group (150 μL of 5 μg/mL LPS and 500 μg/L TSA). After cells of each group were cultured for 24 h and 48 h, the concentration of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)in the culture supernatant was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the apoptosis rate of HMECs was detected by Annexin V-FTTC/PI staining, then comparison between different groups were made.Results:Compared with the control group, LDH concentration in LPS group increased significantly at 24 h[(4.67±1.27) ng/L vs. (11.57±0.83) ng/L ] and 48 h[(7.93±0.80) ng/L vs. (12.72±0.89) ng/L ]; Compared with LPS group, LDH concentration in LPS + TSA group decreased significantly at 24 h[(6.01±0.29) ng/L ] and 48 h[(5.96±0.27) ng/L ], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the apoptosis rates of HMEC cells in LPS group were significantly higher at 24 h[(0.92±0.89)% vs. (1.66±0.09)% ] and 48 h[(1.09±0.14)% vs. (5.01±0.16)%]; Compared with LPS group, the apoptosis rate of HMEC cells in LPS + TSA group significantly decreased at 24 h[(1.36±0.01)% ] and 48 h[(4.19±0.23)% ], the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:TSA has the protective effect of reducing cell injury and apoptosis in sepsis.
ABSTRACT
@#BACKGROUND: Sepsis-induced liver injury is a fatal complication of sepsis. Trichostatin A (TSA) regulates inflammation and autophagy in some human diseases, and forkhead box O3a (FoxO3a) has been shown to regulate autophagy. The present study aims to investigate whether TSA exerts its effects on septic liver injury through the FoxO3a/autophagy signaling pathway. METHODS: A sepsis mouse model was constructed by the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) method, and AML12 cells were pretreated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (1 μg/mL) to establish a sepsis cell model. Forty mice were divided into four groups, namely control group, TSA group, CLP group, and CLP+TSA group, with 10 mice in each group. Cells were divided into control group, TSA group, LPS group, and LPS+TSA group. Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining and biochemical methods were used to evaluate liver tissue injury. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to detect the expression of proinflammatory cytokines, and Western blotting and immunofluorescence were used to measure autophagy-related protein expression. RESULTS: Compared with the CLP group (mice), the proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin-β [IL-β] 2,665.27±324.90 pg/mL to 2,080.26±373.66 pg/mL; interleukin-6 [IL-6] 399.01±60.98 pg/mL to 221.90±46.89 pg/mL) and the hepatocyte injury markers (aspartate transaminase [AST] from 198.18±27.07 U/L to 128.42±20.55 U/L; alanine aminotransferase [ALT] from 634.98±74.10 U/L to 478.60±32.56 U/L) were notably decreased after TSA intervention. Moreover, LC3 II and FoxO3a showed an obvious increase and P62 showed an obvious decrease in the CLP+TSA group. Cell experiment results showed the similar trend. After FoxO3a gene was knocked down in AML12 cells, the promotion of autophagy and the improvement of liver enzyme index and inflammation by TSA were weakened. CONCLUSION: TSA may improve the inflammatory response and liver injury in septic mice through FoxO3a/autophagy.
ABSTRACT
Previously, we evaluated the effect of trichostatin A (TSA) on the expression of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Fragile histidine triad (FHIT) and WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) are two of the most common down-regulated genes in many cancers located on chromosome 3p14.2 and 16q23.3-24.1 respectively. The aim of the current study was to assess the effect of TSA on these genes expression, cell growth, and apoptosis in HCC WCH 17 cell. The cells were seeded and treated with TSA at different times. Then, MTT assay, flow cytometry, and qRT-PCR were achieved to determine viability, apoptosis and gene expression respectively. Cell growth was significantly inhibited, 92 to 36% after 24 h, 86 to 28% after 48 h, and 78 to 24% after 72 h. The results of flow cytometry confirmed that TSA increased apoptosis compared to the control group, the apoptosis percentage increased to 12%, 16%, and 18% in comparison to control groups (2%). Significant up-regulation of the genes was observed in all treated groups. We concluded that re-expression of silenced WWOX and FHIT genes could be achieved by TSA resulting in cell growth inhibition and apoptosis induction in WCH 17 cell.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of microRNA-4298 (miR-4298) targeting inhibition of peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) expression in U251 cells apoptosis induced by histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA).Methods:The experiment was divided into TSA group (0.2 μmol/L TSA) and contral group. CCK8 method was used to detect the effect of TSA on the proliferation of U251 cells. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis level of U251 cells after drug action. Reverse transcription PCR and Western blotting experiments were used to determine the changes of PADI4 gene and protein expression after miR-4298 interference. Luciferase assay was used to determine the effects of miR-4298 on targeted binding and luciferase activity in the 3′UTR region of PADI4. U251 cells were transfected with PADI4 to observe the rescue effect of miR-4298 on apoptosis. Each experiment was divided into 3 groups, NC group, miR-4298 mimic group, TSA+ miR-4298 mimic group and NC group, miR-4298 inhibitor group, TSA+ miR-4298 inhibitor group.Results:U251 cells were treated with 0.2 μmol/L TSA for 4 days, the Absorbancy ( A) values of the control group was 1.168±0.148, which was higher than those of the TSA group (0.737±0.007), with statistically significant difference ( t=4.948, P=0.008). Compared with the control group, after treatment with 0.2 μmol/L TSA for 48 h, U251 cells showed obvious apoptosis (27.62%±3.49% vs. 4.99%±0.13%, t=11.190, P<0.001). Compared with those before the drug treatment, the PADI4 gene expression (0.386±0.020 vs. 0.903±0.021) and protein expression (0.276±0.041 vs. 0.777±0.031) after TSA treatment for 48 h both were decreased, with statistically significant differences ( t=30.400, P<0.001; t=16.770, P<0.001). The expression of miR-4298 during the process of TSA-induced U251 cell apoptosis increased (2.573±0.289 vs. 1.003±0.136; t=8.487, P=0.001). There was a negative correlation between the miR-4298 expression and PADI4 expression ( r=-0.877, P=0.002). Luciferase experiment confirmed that miR-4298 has targeted binding and luciferase inhibitory effects on the 3′UTR region of wild-type PADI4. Compared with NC group (0.920±0.026), the relative expression levels of PADI4 gene of miR-4298 mimic group (0.413±0.049) and TSA+ miR-4298 mimic group (0.213±0.035) were decreased, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.001). The PADI4 protein expression level change was consistent with the gene change trend. Compared with NC group (3.78%±0.68%), the apoptosis levels of miR-4298 mimic group (7.96%±1.10%) and TSA+ miR-4298 mimic group (13.74%±1.26%) were increased, with statistically significant differences ( P=0.005; P<0.001). Compared with NC group (0.183±0.025), the PADI4 gene expression of miR-4298 inhibitor group (0.483±0.032) and TSA+ miR-4298 inhibitor group (0.386±0.025) were increased, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001; P=0.015). The PADI4 protein expression level change was consistent with the gene change trend. Compared with NC group (4.96%±0.59%), the apoptosis levels of miR-4298 inhibitor group (23.83%±2.20%) and TSA+ miR-4298 inhibitor group (9.55%±1.49%) were increased, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.001). In the rescue experiment, the expression level of PADI4 in miR-4298 mimic group was significantly increased ( P<0.001), while the expression level of PADI4 in miR-4298 mimic+ PADI4 group was relatively reversed ( P=0.002). Conclusion:miR-4298 can participate in the process of U251 cell apoptosis by targeting the expression of PADI4 gene, and miR-4298 may be the target of targeted intervention therapy for glioma.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of trichostatin A (TSA) on migration and invasion in human gastric carcinoma SGC-7901 cells and its possible mechanism. Methods SGC-7901 cells were cultured in vitro and treated with TSA (5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160 nmol/L) for 48 hours, and then the cell viability was detected by cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) assay. The protocadherin 9 (PCDH9) high-expression SGC-7901 cells were stably established by transfecting with eukaryotic expression vector (pCMV6-PCDH9). Transwell assay was used to determine the abilities of migration and invasion. The mRNA expression level of PCDH9 were measured by RT-PCR. Western blotting was performed to analyze the protein expression of PCDH9, Snail, E-cadherin, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9. Results TSA remarkably reduced the cell viability of SGC-7901 cells in excess of 80 nmol/L (P<0. 05). However, in a dose-dependent manner, low-level TSA (5-20 nmol/L) suppressed migration and invasion of SGC-7901 cells (P<0. 05), down-regulated the protein levels of Snail, MMP-2 and MMP-9 (P<0. 05), and up-regulated the protein levels of PCDH9 and E-cadherin (P<0. 05). Meanwhile, high expression of PCDH9 also inhibited migration and invasion of SGC-7901 cells (P<0. 05), down-regulated the protein levels of Snail, MMP-2 and MMP-9 (P<0. 05), and up-regulated the protein level of E-cadherin (P<0. 05). Conclusion TSA may inhibit migration and invasion of SGC-7901 cells most likely via up-regulating PCDH9, and then down-regulating the protein levels of Snail, MMP-2 and MMP-9, and up-regulating the protein level of E-cadherin.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the analgesic mechanism of intrathecal trichostatin A (TSA) injection in a rat model of neuropathic pain induced by chronic constrictive injury (CCI).@*METHODS@#Male SD rats were randomized into sham operation+ DMSO group (group S), CCI +DMSO group (group C), CCI +10 μg TSA group (group T), and in the latter two groups, rat models of neuropathic pain were established induced by CCI. The rats were given intrathecal injections of 10 μL 5% DMSO or 10 μg TSA (in 5% DMSO) once a day on days 7 to 9 after CCI or sham operation. The rats were euthanized after behavioral tests on day 10, and the lumbar segment of the spinal cord was sampled to determine the expression of histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) protein and mRNA and detect the differentially expressed miRNAs using a miRNA chip. MiR-190b-5p and miR-142-3p were selected for validation of the results using RT-qPCR.@*RESULTS@#Compared with those in group S, the rats in group C showed significantly decreased paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) from day 3 to day 10 after CCI ( < 0.05); intrathecal injection of TSA significantly reversed the reduction of PWMT following CCI ( < 0.05). Positive HDAC4 expression was detected mainly in the cytoplasm of the neurons in the gray matter of the spinal cord, and was obviously up-regulated after CCI ( < 0.05). Intrathecal injection of TSA significantly suppressed CCI-induced up-regulation of HDAC4 at 10 days after the operation ( < 0.05). Compared with the miRNA profile in group S, miRNA profiling identified 83 differentially expressed miRNAs in group C (fold change ≥2 or ≤0.5, < 0.05); TSA treatment reversed the expressions of 58 of the differentially expressed miRNAs following CCI, including 41 miRNAs that were decreased after CCI but up-regulated following TSA treatment. The results of real-time PCR validated the changes in the expressions of miR-190b-5p and miR-142-3p.@*CONCLUSIONS@#TSA suppresses CCI-induced up-regulation of HDAC4 and reverses differential expressions of miRNAs in the spinal cord of rats, which may contribute to the analgesic effect of TSA on neuropathic pain.

ABSTRACT
Nasal polyposis is a multi-factorial disease associated with chronic inflammation of the paranasal sinuses. Myofibroblast differentiation and extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation are involved in the pathogenesis of nasal polyposis. Epigenetics, DNA methylation, and chromatin modifications are critical for generating cellular diversity and for maintaining distinct gene expression profiles. Based on our recent study that evaluated the inhibitory effect of Trichostatin A on myofibroblast differentiation in nasal polyposis, we hypothesized that HDAC inhibition is associated with myofibroblast differentiation and extracellular matrix accumulation in nasal polyposis and suggested that Trischostatin A may be useful as an inhibitor of nasal polyp growth and thus has potential to be used as a novel treatment option for nasal polyposis. In this review, we present general concept of epigenetics and results of recent research that elucidate the role of epigenetics in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps.

Objective To investigate the effect of trichostatin A(TSA),a histone deacetylase inhibitor, on s-100-induced autoimmune hepatitis in mice.Methods A total of 26 six-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group,model group and TSA group(six in each group),and the rest 8 mice were used to extract the s-100 protein from liver tissue.Mice of model group and TSA group were injected intraperitoneally with s-100 with complete Freund's adjuvant to induce autoimmune hepatitis model.At day 21, TSA group mice were injected intraperitoneally with TSA 2 mg/(kg·d)for 7 days,and 0.9% sodium chloride solution containing 1% dimethyl sulfoxide was injected into the control and model group mice.Alanine transaminase(ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)in serum were measured and liver histopathology was observed.The protein levels of nuclear factor(NF)-κB and acetylated histone H3 in liver tissue were detected by Western Blot.The hepatic mRNA levels of NF-κB,HDAC3,toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)and TNF-α were measured by real-time PCR.ELISA was used to determine the TNF-α in serum.The results were analyzed with t test.Results The serum levels of ALT in control group,model group and TSA group were(122.00 ± 45.29),(459.33 ± 167.58)and(217.33 ± 49.25)U/L,respectively.The differences between model group and control group or TSA group were significant(t=4.76 and 3.41,respectively,both P<0.05).The serum levels of AST in control group,model group and TSA group were(127.83 ± 18.55),(389.67 ± 87.14)and (249.50 ± 71.72)U/L,respectively.The differences between model group and control group or TSA group were also significant(t= 7.20 and 3.04,respectively,both P< 0.05).The inflammation of the liver histopathology induced by s100 was alleviated by TSA.The relative expressions of NF-κB protein,NF-κB mRNA,TNF-α mRNA,HDAC3 mRNA and TLR4 mRNA in the liver tissue of model group mice were 2.43 ± 0.42,9.51 ± 0.36,10.53 ± 0.74,2.90 ± 0.22,and 4.50 ± 0.73,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of the control group(1.28 ± 0.49,1.28 ± 0.49,1.06 ± 0.14,1.72 ± 0.73,and 1.01 ± 0.31, respectively)(t=4.68,37.14,30.69,4.33 and 10.85,respectively,all P <0.05).In TSA group,the relative expressions of NF-κB protein,NF-κB mRNA,TNF-α mRNA,HDAC3 mRNA and TLR4 mRNA were decreased(1.30 ± 0.36,1.30 ± 0.36,2.38 ± 0.36,2.13 ± 0.32 and 2.40 ± 0.51,respectively),which were statistically lower than those in model group(t=4.58,30.62,24.12,2.81 and 5.81,respectively,all P<0.05).The serum TNF-α levels in control group,model group and TSA group were(122.37 ± 68.12), (1361.44 207.13)and(691.64 ± 162.12)ng/L,respectively.Compared with model group,the differences were statistically significant(t=13.92 and 6.24,respectively,both P<0.05).The relative expression of ac-H3 protein in the model group was 1.10 ± 0.08,which was higher than that in the control group 0.96 ± 0.17(t=2.27,P<0.05).That in TSA group was 1.30 ± 0.04,which was higher than the model group(t=-0.30, P <0.05).Conclusion Histone deacetylase inhibitor TSA alleviates autoimmune hepatitis by enhancing histone acetylation and inhibiting NF-κB and inflammatory factors.
ABSTRACT
Sepsis, a serious clinical problem, is characterized by a systemic inflammatory response to infection and leads to organ failure. Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling is intimately implicated in hyper-inflammatory responses and tissue injury during sepsis. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have been reported to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the hepatoprotective mechanisms of trichostatin A (TSA), a HDAC inhibitor, associated with TLR signaling pathway during sepsis. The anti-inflammatory properties of TSA were assayed in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Polymicrobial sepsis was induced in mice by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), a clinically relevant model of sepsis. The mice were intraperitoneally received TSA (1, 2 or 5 mg/kg) 30 min before CLP. The serum and liver samples were collected 6 and 24-h after CLP. TSA inhibited the increased production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-6 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. TSA improved sepsis-induced mortality, attenuated liver injury and decreased serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels. CLP increased the levels of TLR4, TLR2 and myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (MyD88) protein expression and association of MyD88 with TLR4 and TLR2, which were attenuated by TSA. CLP increased nuclear translocation of nuclear factor kappa B and decreased cytosolic inhibitor of kappa B (IκB) protein expression, which were attenuated by TSA. Moreover, CLP decreased acetylation of IκB kinase (IKK) and increased association of IKK with IκB and TSA attenuated these alterations. Our findings suggest that TSA attenuates liver injury by inhibiting TLR-mediated inflammatory response during sepsis.

Objective: To detect the expression profile changes of apoptosis-related genes in trichostatin A (TSA)-induced drug-resisted lung cancer cells A549/CDDP by microarray, in order to screen the target genes in TSA treating cisplatin-resisted lung cancer. Methods: A549/CDDP cells were treated by TSA for 24 hours. Total RNA was extracted and reversely transcribed into cDNA. Gene expression levels were detected by the NimbleGen whole genome microarray. Differences of expression profiles between TSA-treated and control group were measured by NimbleScan 2.5 software and GO analysis. Apoptosis and proliferation related genes were screened from the expression changed genes. Results: Compared with the control group, 85 apoptosis-related genes were up-regulated and 43 growth or proliferation related genes were down-regulated in the TSA-treated group. GO analysis showed that the functions of these genes are mainly regulating apoptosis, cell resistance to chemical stimuli protein, as well as regulating cell growth, proliferation and the biological process of maintaining the cell biological quality. TSA-activated not only the mitochondrial apoptotic pathways, but also the death receptor related apoptosis pathway, and down-regulated the drug resistance related genes BAG3 and ABCC2. Conclusion: TSA may cause the expression changes of apoptotic and proliferation genes in A549/CDDP cells, these genes may play a role in TSA treating cisplatin-resisted lung cancer.
