ABSTRACT

Background: The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) is a mitochondria stress response, which exerts a crucial role in maintaining mitochondrial proteostasis during stress. However, there is no bibliometric analyses systematically studied this field which could comprehensively review research trends, evaluate publication performances and provide future perspectives. Methods: Articles investigating UPRmt published between 1994 and 2021 were downloaded from the Core Collection of the Web of Science (WOS). CiteSpace and VOSviewer bibliometric software were applied for bibliometric and visual analyses. Results: A total of 2,073 papers researching UPRmt were retrieved. According to the published number of papers, the field of UPRmt research has gone through its infancy (after 2000) and rapid growth (after 2021) phases. The United States and China contributed the most to UPRmt research. Regarding the distribution of institutions, Harvard University was the most influential institution. The most prolific authors are Johan Auwerx and CM Haynes. PLoS One is the most extensive journal in the field of UPRmt research, while the Cell Death and Differentiation journal had the greatest impact among the most-authored journals. Moreover, biochemistry/molecular biology, and cell biology are the largest subject areas. UPRmt research is mainly categorized as UPRmt, transcription, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, lipotoxicity, mitophagy, inflammation, skeletal muscle, hypoxia, apoptosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, neurodegeneration, mitochondrial permeability transition, and integrated stress response. Conclusions: At present, research on UPRmt is booming. Further strengthening the cooperation and exchanges between countries, institutions, and authors in the future will surely promote the development of this field.

ABSTRACT

Ferroptosis is characterized by excessive accumulation of iron and lipid peroxides, which are involved in ischemia, reperfusion-induced organ injury, and stroke. Propofol, an anesthetic agent, has neuroprotective effects due to its potent antioxidant, anti-ischemic, and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the relationship between propofol and ferroptosis is still unclear. In the current study, we elucidated the role of ferroptosis in the neuroprotective effect of propofol in mouse brains subjected to cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury (CIRI). Ferroptosis was confirmed by Western blotting assays, transmission electron microscopy, and glutathione assays. Propofol regulated Nrf2/Gpx4 signaling, enhanced antioxidant potential, inhibited the accumulation of lipid peroxides in CIRI-affected neurons, and significantly reversed CIRI-induced ferroptosis. Additionally, Gpx4 inhibitor RSL3 and Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 attenuated the effects of propofol on antioxidant capacity, lipid peroxidation, and ferroptosis in CIRI-affected neurons. Our data support a protective role of propofol against ferroptosis as a cause of cell death in mice with CIRI. Propofol protected against CIRI-induced ferroptosis partly by regulating the Nrf2/Gpx4 signaling pathway. These findings may contribute to the development of future therapies targeting ferroptosis induced by CIRI.

ABSTRACT

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of microRNA (miRNA) (miRSNP) are SNPs located on miRNA genes or miRNA target sites, which have been supposed to be involved in the development of central nervous system diseases by interfering with miRNA-mediated regulatory functions. However, the association of miRSNP with post-stroke depression (PSD) has not been well-investigated. In this study, we collected 54 PSD risk genes via manual literature-mining and integrated PSD-related risk pathways based on multiple public databases. Furthermore, we systematically screened candidate functional miRSNPs for PSD and integrated a miRSNP-based PSD-associated pathway network, which included 99 miRNAs that target 12 PSD risk pathways. We also reviewed the association between three risk pathways and PSD pathogenetic mechanism thoroughly. Combining literature mining and network analysis, our results proposed an underlying mechanism of "miRSNP → miRNA → risk gene → pathway" axis effects on PSD pathogenesis, especially for rs28457673 (miR-15/16/195/424/497 family) → IGF1R → hsa04010 (MAPK signaling pathway). Our studies revealed a functional role in genetic modifier at the system level in the pathogenesis of PSD, which might provide further information for the miRSNP studies in PSD.
