Download or read book Identification and Characterization of Proteins with Novel Functions in Nrf2 Signaling written by Nirmalya Chatterjee and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Oxidative stress causes widespread damage to biomolecules, leads to different pathological conditions and contributes to aging. The Nrf2 transcription factor, a major mediator of oxidative stress responses, controls gene expression programs that protect multiple organs from oxidative damage, delay the onset of some age-associated diseases and promote longevity at least in some organisms. In an unstressed condition, Nrf2 interacts with its cytoplasmic inhibitor Keap1, which targets it for proteasomal degradation. Oxidative stress prevents Keap1-mediated degradation of Nrf2, resulting in its accumulation and nuclear translocation. In the nucleus, Nrf2 dimerizes with a small Maf protein, binds to ?Antioxidant Response Elements' and induces multiple antioxidant and detoxification genes. Complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms of Nrf2 regulation is important to assess its role in normal physiology and disease. The key components of Nrf2 signaling are conserved in Drosophila where CncC is the homolog of mammalian Nrf2. In order to study mechanisms of Nrf2 function in Drosophila, cell-based and in vivo transcriptional reporters for Nrf2 were developed. A cell-based dsRNA library screen was carried out to find novel regulators of Nrf2 signaling. Among others we identified Cdk12 and Fs(1)h. Cdk12, a RNA PolII-CTD kinase, was found to be required for CncC target gene expression in a cell-autonomous manner and to be important for oxidative stress resistance. In contrast, Fs(1)h, the sole member of the BET protein family in Drosophila, was identified as an inhibitor of CncC. Bromodomain-containing BET proteins have complex functions in chromosome organization and the control of gene expression. Fs(1)h was found to physically interact with CncC in a manner that requires the function of its bromodomains and the acetylation of CncC. Treatment of cultured Drosophila cells or adult flies with the BET protein inhibitor JQ1 de-represses CncC transcriptional activity and induces protective gene expression programs. The mechanism by which Fs(1)h inhibits CncC function is distinct from that of Keap1. Consistent with this, combinations of drugs that can specifically target Keap1 and Fs(1)h cause a synergistic and specific activation of CncC dependent gene expression. This synergism might be exploitable for the design of combinatorial therapeutic approaches, targeting Nrf2 in various diseases."--Pages vi-vii.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nrf2, a transcription factor that mediates transcriptional responses to oxidative and xenobiotic stresses, plays a central role in cellular protection against internal or external toxins. Defects in Nrf2 and the relevant regulatory pathways are associated with a number of pathologies including inflammation, respiratory diseases, cardiovascular dysfunctions, metabolic syndrome and diabetes, neurodegeneration, and cancer. This book comprehensively reviews the up-to-date discoveries for the roles of Nrf2 in several human diseases in the context of inflammation. In particular, the molecular mechanisms that mediate the functions of Nrf2 and its interacting network in inflammation and pathogenesis are explicated. In addition, the research and therapeutic applications of Nrf2-targeting compounds in different diseases were summarized. This book is expected to be a valuable reference for worldwide researchers conducting both mechanistic and therapeutic studies of Nrf2 and relevant factors.
Book Synopsis Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Nrf2: Novel Mechanisms Beyond Keap1 by : Tongde Wu
Download or read book Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Nrf2: Novel Mechanisms Beyond Keap1 written by Tongde Wu and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nrf2 (NF-E2-related factor 2) is a transcription factor that regulates a battery of downstream genes that contain the antioxidant response element (ARE) in their promoter regions, including intracellular redox-balancing proteins, phase II detoxifying enzymes, and transporters. These Nrf2-dependent proteins work in collaboration to protect against many diseases where oxidative stress plays an essential role in disease onset and progression. Consequently, it is imperative to understand the basic molecular mechanisms of how Nrf2 is regulated so that this pathway can be targeted for disease prevention and treatment. Nrf2 is mainly regulated at the protein level by the ubiquitin proteasome system. Under basal conditions Nrf2 is constantly ubiquitinated by the Keap1-Cul3-E3 ubiquitin ligase complex and subsequently degraded by the 26S proteasome. Currently, regulation of the Nrf2-Keap1 pathway by ubiquitination is largely understood. However, other mechanism responsible for modulating Nrf2-ARE signal remains to be explored. This dissertation identifies three molecular mechanisms that are important in understanding how the Nrf2-Keap1 pathway is regulated: (i) In Chapter 2, KPNA6 was identified and characterized as a negative regulatory mechanism of the Nrf2 pathway, which mediates Keap1 nuclear import and represses the Nrf2-dependent antioxidant response at post-induction phase. (ii) In Chapter 3, I identified PARP-1 as a new transcription co-activator of Nrf2, which augments ARE-specific DNA binding of Nrf2 and enhances the transcription of Nrf2 target genes. This indicates a novel function of PARP-1 and reveals another layer of regulation of Nrf2. (iii) In Chapter 4, I demonstrated that XBP1 and SYVN1 are involved in regulating the Nrf2 pathway in a Keap1-independent mechanism. During ER stress, XBP1s upregulates transcription of SYVN1, which is an ubiquitin E3 ligase. SYVN1 accelerates the clearance of Nrf2 protein through promoting ubiquitination of Nrf2, and subsequent proteasomal degradation. Moreover, we observed an inverse correlation between XBP1s/SYVN1 and Nrf2 expression in the end stage alcoholic cirrhosis liver samples, implying a pathological role of ER stress-oxidative stress crosstalk. Taken together, these findings further our understanding of how the Nrf2-Keap1 pathway is regulated, providing novel targets of chemoprevention or chemotherapy.

Book Synopsis A Master Regulator of Oxidative StressThe Transcription Factor Nrf2 by : Jose Antonio Morales-Gonzalez
Download or read book A Master Regulator of Oxidative StressThe Transcription Factor Nrf2 written by Jose Antonio Morales-Gonzalez and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-12-21 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to that at present, the majority of diseases are associated with alterations in oxidative stress and inflammatory processes, and in that Nrf-2 is a modulator of these processes; knowing how this transcriptional factor functions and is regulated opens a therapeutic window to diverse diseases. Therefore, the efforts of various investigation groups are centered on finding activators and/or inhibitors of Nrf-2 to prevent or control diverse diseases, for example, cancer, where it would be important to regulate Nrf-2 in order for it to activate apoptosis pathways in cancerogenous cells, or in neurodegenerative diseases where cell death is predominant, it would be important for Nrf-2 to activate antiapoptotic pathways.
Download or read book Hypoxia in Kidney Disease written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kidney disease is a complex health problem, often coinciding with cardiovascular pathology (e.g. hypertension) and metabolic disturbances (e.g. obesity and diabetes). It is also a disturbingly fast growing global public health problem, e.g. chronic kidney disease affects an estimated ~9-16% of the population. Besides the public health issues this results in a large economic burden as kidney diseases contributes disproportionally to about a quarter of total health care costs. Experimental and clinical data solidly support the view that kidney tissue hypoxia plays a critical and intricate role during the genesis and progression of both chronic and acute kidney diseases. This research field is currently at the very beginning of integrating pre-clinical with clinical research in which hypoxia related mechanism are quantified by non-invasive imaging. In combination with the fact that some key questions remain unanswered, this offers exciting new research perspectives that are waiting to be explored. With this Research Topic we aim to discuss and find answers to the following research question: 1) What are the temporal relationships between hypoxia and kidney disease? 2) Can we demonstration causation between hypoxia and kidney disease? 3) Can renal hypoxia be considered as a treatment target in kidney disease? 4) Can hypoxia (e.g. in the urine) be considered a biomarker of kidney disease? 5) Does hypoxia ramp-up sympathetic activity? 6) Does hypoxia trigger inflammation? 7) Is hypoxia caused by changes in sodium reabsorption and/or mitochondrial function? 8) Which molecular mechanisms are involved in hypoxia in kidney disease? 9) Which gene expressions change due to hypoxia in kidney disease? 10) Can we generate new and translational insights using non-invasive imaging technologies? Our overall aim is identify the mediators/controllers of hypoxia in kidney disease. If we understand more about the sequence of events leading to hypoxia, its regulation and consequences in renal disease, we might be able to have a major impact in clinical practice. I.e. more accurate and earlier diagnosis, novel treatment targets, and novel therapies.
Book Synopsis 10 Years of Inflammation Pharmacology by : Paola Patrignani
Download or read book 10 Years of Inflammation Pharmacology written by Paola Patrignani and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past and future of inflammatory pharmacology research: a hot topic in health and disease Inflammation is a physiological response to a traumatic injury, bacterial, or viral infection. However, if not appropriately controlled, it contributes to a long list of diseases, including asthma, atherosclerosis, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, and cancer. Different are the types of inflammatory responses. Acute inflammation is an immediate body response to the cellular damage induced by pathogens, noxious stimuli, or physical injury – it is a short-term response resulting in healing via time-dependent changes of leukocyte functions. First, a leukocytes infiltration happens within the damaged region with the purpose of eliminating the stimulus and repairing the tissue. Chronic inflammation, by contrast, is a prolonged and dysregulated response where the active inflammation contributes both to tissue destruction and to the development of many chronic human conditions and diseases. In the context of exaggerated inflammation, which occurs as a consequence of severe burns or trauma, the body response called sepsis can be associated with fatal outcome. Increased knowledge of the cellular and molecular mechanisms taking part in the different types of inflammation is a central requirement to develop more effective and safer treatments. This is a necessary step to prevent potential severe consequences, i.e., organ failure associated with tissue fibrosis. The mission of Inflammation Pharmacology (section of Frontiers in Pharmacology) is to publish scientifically sound studies that advance our knowledge on different aspects of inflammation and contribute to the development of more effective and safer anti-inflammatory agents. Within the present eBook are collected the top articles published in the Inflammation Pharmacology section in the last 10 years. Some articles explored the roles played by different lipid mediators generated from arachidonic acid, including leukotrienes and prostanoids [such as prostacylin and prostaglandin(PG)F2a], in inflammatory conditions. Moreover, the protectin (PD) family of specialized pro-resolving mediators biosynthesized from the two omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and n–3 docosapentaenoic acid (n–3 DPA) were described for their biological effects, the G-coupled protein receptors pharmacology, biosynthesis, and medicinal chemistry. Some other articles focused on the development of novel strategies to counteract inflammation or to induce its resolution. The current concepts and controversies on classification, pathogenesis, and clinical management of cutaneous adverse events induced by biologic agents used in the treatment of rheumatologic conditions were discussed in another article. The whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing data identifying new and old loci associated with atherosclerosis will lead to discovering new molecular targets for blocking atherosclerosis even in its early stages. This critical issue was reviewed in another paper. Numerous information on an individual clinical condition is held in their platelet-derived microparticles (MPs); the assessment of their number and size together with their content can represent the signature to acquire diagnostic information and to monitor the efficacy of therapeutic agents. Some other articles discussed the role of fibroblasts in the development of fibrosis and potential therapies under investigation. It was enlightened the role of the activation and transdifferentiation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) into contractile, matrix-producing myofibroblasts (MFBs) as central events in hepatic fibrogenesis, and summarized the current strategies for targeted delivery of drugs to pro-fibrogenic liver cells, including the development of therapeutics specifically targeting HSCs.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.

Book Synopsis Cyclin Dependent Kinase 5 (Cdk5) by : Nancy Y. Ip
Download or read book Cyclin Dependent Kinase 5 (Cdk5) written by Nancy Y. Ip and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-02-28 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyclin Dependent Kinase 5 provides a comprehensive and up-to-date collection of reviews on the discovery, signaling mechanisms and functions of Cdk5, as well as the potential implication of Cdk5 in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Since the identification of this unique member of the Cdk family, Cdk5 has emerged as one of the most important signal transduction mediators in the development, maintenance and fine-tuning of neuronal functions and networking. Further studies have revealed that Cdk5 is also associated with the regulation of neuronal survival during both developmental stages and in neurodegenerative diseases. These observations indicate that precise control of Cdk5 is essential for the regulation of neuronal survival. The pivotal role Cdk5 appears to play in both the regulation of neuronal survival and synaptic functions thus raises the interesting possibility that Cdk5 inhibitors may serve as therapeutic treatment for a number of neurodegenerative diseases.

Download or read book Flavonoids and Anti-Aging written by Karam F.A. Soliman and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-05-03 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) was described as a master regulator of the cellular antioxidant response. Moreover, many critical biological functions linked to cell viability, metabolism, autophagy, inflammation, immunity, and differentiation have been attributed to Nrf2, which regulates over 600 genes. It is well known that oxidative stress, which Nrf2 can ameliorate, plays a key role in many pathologic processes such as aging, obesity, diabetes, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Flavonoids, on the other hand, through their ability to activate and upregulate Nrf2, can have anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic, and anti-carcinogenic properties. Flavonoids are an essential ingredient in nutraceuticals, functional foods, and pharmaceuticals. The present book Flavonoids and Anti-Aging: The Role of Transcription Factor Nuclear Erythroid 2-Related Factor2 focuses on the interaction between Nrf2 and flavonoids and their applications in various conditions such as aging, osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative disease and many other areas.
