Parallel damage in mitochondria and lysosomes is an efficient way to photoinduce cell death
Autophagy 2019 Feb;15(2):259-279.PMID:30176156DOI:10.1080/15548627.2018.1515609.
Cells challenged by photosensitized oxidations face strong redox stresses and rely on autophagy to either survive or die. However, the use of macroautophagy/autophagy to improve the efficiency of photosensitizers, in terms of inducing cell death, remains unexplored. Here, we addressed the concept that a parallel damage in the membranes of mitochondria and lysosomes leads to a scenario of autophagy malfunction that can greatly improve the efficiency of the photosensitizer to cause cell death. Specific damage to these organelles was induced by irradiation of cells pretreated with 2 phenothiazinium salts, methylene blue (MB) and 1,9-dimethyl methylene blue (DMMB). At a low concentration level (10 nM), only DMMB could induce mitochondrial damage, leading to mitophagy activation, which did not progress to completion because of the parallel damage in lysosome, triggering cell death. MB-induced photodamage was perceived almost instantaneously after irradiation, in response to a massive and nonspecific oxidative stress at a higher concentration range (2 µM). We showed that the parallel damage in mitochondria and lysosomes activates and inhibits mitophagy, leading to a late and more efficient cell death, offering significant advantage (2 orders of magnitude) over photosensitizers that cause unspecific oxidative stress. We are confident that this concept can be used to develop better light-activated drugs.

Microglial mTOR Activation Upregulates Trem2 and Enhances β-Amyloid Plaque Clearance in the 5XFAD Alzheimer's Disease Model
J Neurosci 2022 Jul 6;42(27):5294-5313.PMID:35672148DOI:10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2427-21.2022.
The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway plays a major role in key cellular processes including metabolism and differentiation; however, the role of mTOR in microglia and its importance in Alzheimer's disease (AD) have remained largely uncharacterized. We report that selective loss of Tsc1, a negative regulator of mTOR, in microglia in mice of both sexes, caused mTOR activation and upregulation of Trem2 with enhanced β-Amyloid (Aβ) clearance, reduced spine loss, and improved cognitive function in the 5XFAD AD mouse model. Combined loss of Tsc1 and Trem2 in microglia led to reduced Aβ clearance and increased Aβ plaque burden revealing that Trem2 functions downstream of mTOR. Tsc1 mutant microglia showed increased phagocytosis with upregulation of CD68 and Lamp1 lysosomal proteins. In vitro studies using Tsc1-deficient microglia revealed enhanced endocytosis of the lysosomal tracker indicator Green DND-26 suggesting increased lysosomal activity. Incubation of Tsc1-deficient microglia with fluorescent-labeled Aβ revealed enhanced Aβ uptake and clearance, which was blunted by rapamycin, an mTOR inhibitor. In vivo treatment of mice of relevant genotypes in the 5XFAD background with rapamycin, affected microglial activity, decreased Trem2 expression and reduced Aβ clearance causing an increase in Aβ plaque burden. Prolonged treatment with rapamycin caused even further reduction of mTOR activity, reduction in Trem2 expression, and increase in Aβ levels. Together, our findings reveal that mTOR signaling in microglia is critically linked to Trem2 regulation and lysosomal biogenesis, and that the upregulation of Trem2 in microglia through mTOR activation could be exploited toward better therapeutic avenues to Aβ-related AD pathologies.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is a key regulator for major cellular metabolic processes. However, the link between mTOR signaling and Alzheimer's disease (AD) is not well understood. In this study, we provide compelling in vivo evidence that mTOR activation in microglia would benefit β-Amyloid (Aβ)-related AD pathologies, as it upregulates Trem2, a key receptor for Aβ plaque uptake. Inhibition of mTOR pathway with rapamycin, a well-established immunosuppressant, downregulated Trem2 in microglia and reduced Aβ plaque clearance indicating that mTOR inactivation may be detrimental in Aβ-associated AD patients. This finding will have a significant public health impact and benefit, regarding the usage of rapamycin in AD patients, which we believe will aggravate the Aβ-related AD pathologies.
Torin 1 alleviates impairment of TFEB-mediated lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy in TGFBI (p.G623_H626del)-linked Thiel-Behnke corneal dystrophy
Autophagy 2022 Apr;18(4):765-782.PMID:34403298DOI:10.1080/15548627.2021.1955469.
Thiel-Behnke corneal dystrophy (TBCD) is an epithelial-stromal TGFBI dystrophy caused by mutations in the TGFBI (transforming growth factor beta induced) gene, though the underlying mechanisms and pathogenesis of TBCD are still obscure. The study identifies a novel mutation in the TGFBI gene (p.Gly623_His626del) in a TBCD pedigree. Characteristics of the typical vacuole formation, irregular corneal epithelial thickening and thinning, deposition of eosinophilic substances beneath the epithelium, and involvement of the anterior stroma were observed in this pedigree via transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and histological staining. Tgfbi-p.Gly623_Tyr626del mouse models of TBCD were subsequently generated via CRISPR/Cas9 technology, and the above characteristics were further verified via TEM and histological staining. Lysosomal dysfunction and downregulation of differential expression protein CTSD (cathepsin D) were observed using LysoTracker Green DND-26 and proteomic analysis, respectively. Hence, lysosomal dysfunction probably leads to autophagic flux obstruction in TBCD; this was supported by enhanced LC3-II and SQSTM1 levels and decreased CTSD. TFEB (transcription factor EB) was prominently decreased in TBCD corneal fibroblasts and administration of ATP-competitive MTOR inhibitor torin 1 reversed this decline, resulting in the degradation of accumulated mut-TGFBI (mutant TGFBI protein) via the ameliorative lysosomal function and autophagic flux owing to elevated TFEB activity as measured by western blot, confocal microscopy, and flow cytometry. Transfected HEK 293 cells overexpressing human full-length WT-TGFBI and mut-TGFBI were generated to further verify the results obtained in human corneal fibroblasts. Amelioration of lysosome dysfunction may therefore have therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of TBCD.Abbreviations AS-OCT: anterior segment optical coherence tomography; ATP: adenosine triphosphate; Cas9: CRISPR-associated protein 9; CLEAR: coordinated lysosomal expression and regulation; CRISPR: clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats; CTSB: cathepsin B; CTSD: cathepsin D; CTSF: cathepsin F; CTSL: cathepsin L; DNA: deoxyribonucleic acid; ECM: extracellular matrix; Fas1: fasciclin 1; FC: flow cytometry; GAPDH: glyceraldeyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; GCD2: granular corneal dystrophy type 2; HE: hematoxylin and eosin; LAMP2: lysosomal-associated membrane protein; MT: mutation type; MTOR: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase; MTORC1: MTOR complex 1; mut-TGFBI: mutant TGFBI protein; SD: standard deviation; TBCD: Thiel-Behnke corneal dystrophy; TEM: transmission electron microscopy; TFEB: transcription factor EB; TGFBI: transforming growth factor beta induced; WT: wild type.
Flow cytometric evaluation of sperm parameters in relation to fertility potential
Theriogenology 2005 Jan 15;63(2):445-57.PMID:15626410DOI:10.1016/j.theriogenology.2004.09.024.
Most laboratory methods used to evaluate semen quality have not correlated highly with fertilizing capacity. The discovery of a variety of fluorochromes and compounds conjugated to fluorescent probes has enabled a more widespread analysis of sperm attributes, and in conjunction with the flow cytometer, permit the evaluation of a large number of spermatozoa. A number of characteristics of sperm integrity, viability and function can be assessed by flow cytometry. The DNA status of spermatozoa has been determined using the metachromatic properties of acridine orange (AO). AO staining, when used in the sperm chromatin structure assay (SCSA), correlates with fertility in a number of species. DNA fragmentation can also be assessed using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay, which identifies DNA strand breaks by labeling free 3'-OH termini with modified nucleotides. The status of the sperm acrosome can be determined using fluorescently labeled lectins and LysoTracker Green DND-26, a fluorescent acidotropic probe. Capacitation status has been observed through calcium-mediated changes using chlortetracycline (CTC) or by changes in membrane fluidity monitored by the binding of the fluorescent amphiphilic probe, Merocyanine 540. Fluorescently labeled annexin-V, C6NBD and Ro-09-0198 can also be used to detect changes in membrane phospholipid distribution. Cell viability can be determined using the propensity of propidium iodide (PI), ethidium homodimer-1 (EthD-1) or Yo-Pro-1 to permeate damaged membranes. These are generally more adaptable to clinical flow cytometry than the bisbenzimide membrane impermeable stain, Hoechst 33258, which excites in the ultraviolet range and requires UV laser equipment. Mitochondrial function can be determined using rhodamine 123 (R123) and MitoTracker Green FM (MITO) and 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolyl-carbocyanine iodide (JC-1). Flow cytometry is a tool that may be used in the future to monitor many new potential markers of sperm function.
Impairment of the autophagy-lysosomal pathway and activation of pyroptosis in macular corneal dystrophy
Cell Death Discov 2020 Sep 12;6(1):85.PMID:32983576DOI:10.1038/s41420-020-00320-z.
Macular corneal dystrophy (MCD) is ascribed to mutations in the carbohydrate sulfotransferase (CHST6) gene affecting keratan sulfate (KS) hydrophilicity and causing non-sulfated KS to precipitate in keratocytes and the corneal stroma. We investigated roles for inflammatory responses in MCD pathogenesis by examining the lysosomal-autophagy pathway and activation of pyroptosis in MCD keratocytes. Normal and lesioned keratocytes were obtained from MCD patients undergoing corneal transplantation. The keratocytes were subjected to gene sequencing, RT-PCR, western blotting, transmission electron microscopy, histological staining, induction and inhibition assays of autophagy and pyroptosis, CCK-8 and LysoTracker Green DND-26 labeling, and flow cytometry. A novel homozygous MCD mutation was identified in a family from Northeast China; the mutation was distinguished by cytoplasmic vacuolation, cell membrane disruption, electron dense deposits, and deposition of a band of Periodic acid-Schiff and Alcian blue-positive material in the keratocytes and stroma layer. KS protein levels were decreased, expression of p62 and LC3-II proteins was enhanced, cathepsin D expression was declined and the LysoTracker Green DND-26 signal was dramatically reduced in MCD keratocytes. Bafilomycin-A1 treatment significantly increased caspase-1 and Pro-IL-1β expression in normal and MCD keratocytes. Nod-like receptors pyrins-3 (NLRP3), caspase-1, Pro-IL-1β, and IL-1β levels were pronouncedly elevated in cells exposed to H2O2. Ac-YVAD-CMK treatment reversed this expression in normal and MCD keratocytes. Suppression of the autophagic degradation of non-sulfated KS by impaired autophagic flux in MCD keratocytes triggers pyroptosis. Amelioration of impaired autophagy and restraint of pyroptosis may, therefore, have therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of MCD.
