Macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles alter cardiac recovery and metabolism in a rat heart model of donation after circulatory death
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18281. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18281.ABSTRACTConditions to which the cardiac graft is exposed during transplantation with donation after circulatory death (DCD) can trigger the recruitment of macrophages that are either unpolarized (M0) or pro-inflammatory (M1) as well as the release of extracellular vesicles (EV). We aimed to characterize the effects of M0 and M1 macrophage-derived EV administration on post-ischaemic functional recovery and glucose metabolism using an isolated rat heart model of DCD. Isolated rat hearts were subjected to 20 min aerobic perfusion, followed by 27 min global, warm i...

Identification of PPAR-related differentially expressed genes liver hepatocellular carcinoma and construction of a prognostic model based on data analysis and molecular docking
In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data were used to explore the molecular mechanisms of LIHC development and identify potential targets for therapy. The expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR)-related genes was analysed in LIHC samples, and primary cell populations, including natural killer cells, T cells, B cells, myeloid cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and hepatocytes, were identified. Analysis of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between normal and tumour tissues revealed significant changes in gene expression in various cell populations. PPAR activity was evalu...

Non-apoptotic regulated cell death mediates reprogramming of the tumour immune microenvironment by macrophages
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18348. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18348.ABSTRACTTumour immune microenvironment (TIME) plays an indispensable role in tumour progression, and tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) are the most abundant immune cells in TIME. Non-apoptotic regulated cell death (RCD) can avoid the influence of tumour apoptosis resistance on anti-tumour immune response. Specifically, autophagy, ferroptosis, pyroptosis and necroptosis mediate the crosstalk between TAMs and tumour cells in TIME, thus reprogram TIME and affect the progress of tumour. In addition, although some achievements have been made in immune checkpoint ...

An integrated analysis of the anticarcinogenic role of forkhead box protein 1 in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma
This study investigated the role of FOXP1 in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma through bioinformatics analysis and experimental verification. We determined through public databases that FOXP1 expresses low in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma compared with normal tissues, while high expression of FOXP1 indicates a better prognosis. We identified potential target genes regulated by FOXP1, and explored the potential biological processes and signalling pathways involved in FOXP1 in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma through GO and KEGG enrichment, gene co-expression analysis, and protein interaction network construction....

Proteomic studies in VWA1-related neuromyopathy allowed new pathophysiological insights and the definition of blood biomarkers
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18122. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18122.ABSTRACTBi-allelic variants in VWA1, encoding Von Willebrand Factor A domain containing 1 protein localized to the extracellular matrix (ECM), were linked to a neuromuscular disorder with manifestation in child- or adulthood. Clinical findings indicate a neuromyopathy presenting with muscle weakness. Given that pathophysiological processes are still incompletely understood, and biomarkers are still missing, we aimed to identify blood biomarkers of pathophysiological relevance: white blood cells (WBC) and plasma derived from six VWA1-patients were investigated b...

Bortezomib suppresses acute myelogenous leukaemia stem-like KG-1a cells via NF- κB inhibition and the induction of oxidative stress
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18333. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18333.ABSTRACTAcute myelogenous leukaemia (AML) originates and is maintained by leukaemic stem cells (LSCs) that are inherently resistant to antiproliferative therapies, indicating that a critical strategy for overcoming chemoresistance in AML therapy is to eradicate LSCs. In this work, we investigated the anti-AML activity of bortezomib (BTZ), emphasizing its anti-LSC potential, using KG-1a cells, an AML cell line with stem-like properties. BTZ presented potent cytotoxicity to both solid and haematological malignancy cells and reduced the stem-like features of KG-1a...

The β3-AR agonist BRL37344 ameliorates the main symptoms of X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus in the mouse model of the disease
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18301. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18301.ABSTRACTX-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (X-NDI) is a rare congenital disease caused by inactivating mutations of the vasopressin type-2 receptor (AVPR2), characterized by impaired renal concentrating ability, dramatic polyuria, polydipsia and risk of dehydration. The disease, which still lacks a cure, could benefit from the pharmacologic stimulation of other GPCRs, activating the cAMP-intracellular pathway in the kidney cells expressing the AVPR2. On the basis of our previous studies, we here hypothesized that the β3-adrenergic receptor could be such a...

Dihydroartemisinin induces ferroptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma via inhibiting ATF4-xCT pathway
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18335. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18335.ABSTRACTManagement of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains challenging due to population growth, frequent recurrence and drug resistance. Targeting of genes involved with the ferroptosis is a promising alternative treatment strategy for HCC. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) against HCC and explore the underlying mechanisms. The effects of DHA on induction of ferroptosis were investigated with the measurement of malondialdehyde concentrations, oxidised C11 BODIPY 581/591 staining, as well as subcutaneous xenograft e...

J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18341. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18341.ABSTRACTLiver metastasis (LM) is an important factor leading to colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality. However, the effect of T-cell exhaustion on LM in CRC is unclear. Single-cell sequencing data derived from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Data were normalized using the Seurat package and subsequently clustered and annotated into different cell clusters. The differentiation trajectories of epithelial cells and T cells were characterized based on pseudo-time analysis. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was used to calculate enrichment scores...

Development of m6A/m5C/m1A regulated lncRNA signature for prognostic prediction, personalized immune intervention and drug selection in LUAD
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18282. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18282.ABSTRACTResearch indicates that there are links between m6A, m5C and m1A modifications and the development of different types of tumours. However, it is not yet clear if these modifications are involved in the prognosis of LUAD. The TCGA-LUAD dataset was used as for signature training, while the validation cohort was created by amalgamating publicly accessible GEO datasets including GSE29013, GSE30219, GSE31210, GSE37745 and GSE50081. The study focused on 33 genes that are regulated by m6A, m5C or m1A (mRG), which were used to form mRGs clusters and clusters of...
