Ⅱ型糖尿病发病因素复杂,长期高血糖和高血脂刺激所产生的氧化应激反应能调节葡萄糖刺激的胰岛素分泌,促进胰岛β细胞凋亡、导致胰岛功能障碍,是糖尿病及其并发症发生发展中的一个重要因素;同时,细胞自噬作为一种分解代谢途径,在维持胰岛细胞内环境稳态中发挥重要作用。活性氧族(Reactive Oxygen Species,ROS)的产生是氧化应激的基本环节,同时与细胞自噬存在复杂密切的关系,ROS既有一定的细胞毒性损伤作用,同时还作为重要的细胞内分子,活化许多信号转导通路,特别是参与自噬的信号转导。本文就ROS与细胞自噬在糖尿病中的生物学作用进行综述,旨在探讨糖尿病的发生机制,为糖尿病的防治寻找新策略。  相似文献

细胞自噬(autophagy)是一种在进化上高度保守的代谢通路,它发生的分子机制和信号调控途径相当复杂,其中mTOR信号通路和Beclin1复合物发挥了最重要的调控作用,p53也是细胞自噬重要的调节因子。研究发现,p53可通过多种途径调节细胞自噬水平,这主要决定于它的亚细胞定位。在细胞核中,p53可通过多种方式上调细胞自噬;而在细胞质中,p53对细胞自噬具有负性调节作用,可抑制细胞自噬的发生。探究清楚p53与细胞自噬之间的调控关系将有助于人类正确认识由于细胞自噬功能异常所诱导的肿瘤的发生发展过程,从而最终攻克各种肿瘤性疾病。  相似文献

镉是一种有毒的重金属,其对环境和人类的健康造成巨大危害。越来越多的证据表明镉对多个器官和系统造成损害,甚至引起癌变和肿瘤。自噬是进化上保守的,利用溶酶体途径降解细胞内蛋白质和细胞器的过程。一方面,自噬通过清除受损的细胞器保护细胞免受镉损伤;而当细胞受到的损伤不可逆时,自噬作为一种死亡机制导致细胞死亡。自噬在镉引起的细胞损伤中的作用目前仍有争议,可能是镉的剂量和暴露时间的不同造成了自噬在损伤中的作用不同。目前对自噬在其中的作用机理研究,主要集中在m TOR,Ca2+,Beclin-1等信号分子。对镉与自噬分子机理的研究,可以为治疗和预防镉中毒提供新思路。综述了自噬在镉致细胞毒性中的作用,以及镉诱导细胞自噬的信号调节通路。  相似文献

自噬是一种复杂的细胞内生物学过程,受众多基因调控,存在复杂的调控网络,在不同组织器官、生理和病理状态所起的作用也不同。对20多个病毒科的50多种DNA或RNA病毒的研究发现自噬是把双刃剑,但在研究麻疹病毒属病毒自噬相关内容时发现自噬有利于病毒的复制与传播,并且H和F蛋白在麻疹病毒属诱导自噬方面发挥着重要作用。麻疹病毒能够通过RNA病毒诱导自噬的关键调控分子IRGM诱发自噬,并且CD46作为麻疹病毒属的受体分子,在诱导自噬发生方面发挥了至关重要的作用。此外,麻疹病毒属病毒诱发的自噬与其引起的免疫抑制之间可能存在密切关系。本文为麻疹病毒属的免疫学研究提供了参考。  相似文献

氨基酸是生物体内不可缺少的营养成分和生命活动最基本的物质之一,并对动物体的新陈代谢起到至关重要的作用。自噬是细胞内通过降解和回收细胞内生物大分子和受损细胞器,以完成本身代谢和某些细胞器更新的过程。研究证实氨基酸缺乏能诱导细胞自噬,而这种反应大部分是依赖于m TORC1信号通路的方式实现的,但总氨基酸或单体氨基酸调节细胞自噬的分子作用机制和自噬水平有很大差别,且相关方面的分子调节机制尚未完全清楚,需要进一步阐明。mi RNA是一类长度为18-24 nt的非编码核苷酸,参与细胞增殖、分化、自噬与凋亡等多种生命活动。研究表明mi RNA在氨基酸缺乏诱导细胞自噬过程中的也发挥重要调控机制。就不同氨基酸缺乏调控自噬相关机制加以综述,并探讨mi RNA在其中起到的关键作用。旨在为治疗自噬相关代谢提供思路。  相似文献

Aberrant levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) rapidly generated from NADPH oxidase (NOX) activation can be cytotoxic due to activating pro-apoptotic signals. However, ROS also induce pro-survival autophagy through the engulfment of damaged mitochondria. This study is aimed at investigating the cytoprotective role of albumin against NOX/ROS-induced autophagy and apoptosis under serum starvation. Serum starvation induced apoptosis following a myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1 (Mcl-1)/Bax imbalance, loss of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential, and caspase activation accompanied by pro-survival autophagy following canonical inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Aberrant ROS generation, initially occurring through NOX, facilitated mitochondrial damage, autophagy, and apoptosis. Autophagy additionally regulated the accumulation of ROS-generating mitochondria. NOX/ROS permitted p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK)-regulated mitochondrial apoptosis, accompanied by non-canonical induction of autophagy. In addition, activation of glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3β by NOX/ROS-inactivated Akt facilitated a decrease in Mcl-1, followed by mitochondrial apoptosis as well as autophagy. Restoring albumin conferred an anti-oxidative effect against serum starvation-deregulated NOX, p38 MAPK, and Akt/GSK-3β/Mcl-1/caspase-3 signaling. Albumin also prevented autophagy by sustaining mTORC1. These results indicate an anti-oxidative role for albumin via preventing NOX/ROS-mediated mitochondrial signaling to stimulate apoptosis as well as autophagy. Autophagy, initially induced by canonical inhibition of mTORC1 and enhanced by non-canonical mitochondrial damage, acts physically as a pro-survival mechanism.  相似文献

Mitochondria, the main source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), are required for cell survival; yet also orchestrate programmed cell death (PCD), referring to apoptosis and autophagy. Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved lysosomal degradation process implicated in a wide range of pathological processes, most notably cancer. Accumulating evidence has recently revealed that mitochondria may generate massive ROS that play the essential role for autophagy regulation, and thus sealing the fate of cancer cell. In this review, we summarize mitochondrial function and ROS generation, and also highlight ROS-modulated core autophagic pathways involved in ATG4–ATG8/LC3, Beclin-1, p53, PTEN, PI3K–Akt–mTOR and MAPK signaling in cancer. Therefore, a better understanding of the intricate relationships between mitochondrial ROS and autophagy may ultimately allow cancer biologists to harness mitochondrial ROS-mediated autophagic pathways for cancer drug discovery.  相似文献

The role of autophagy and lysosomal degradation pathway in the regulation of skeletal muscle metabolism was previously studied. However, underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. L-lactate which is utilized as an energetic substrate by skeletal muscle can also augment genes expression related to metabolism and up-regulate those being responsive to reactive oxygen species (ROS). Since ROS is the most important regulator of autophagy in skeletal muscle, we tested if there is a link between cellular lactate metabolism and autophagy in differentiated C2C12 myotubes and the gastrocnemius muscle of male wistar rats. C2C12 mouse skeletal muscle was exposed to 2, 6, 10, and 20 mM lactate and evaluated for lactate autophagic effects. Lactate dose-dependently increased autophagy and augmented ROS generation in differentiated C2C12 myotubes. The autophagic effect of lactate deterred in N-acetylcysteine presence (NAC, a ROS scavenger) indicated lactate regulates autophagy with ROS participation. Lactate-induced up-regulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) through ROS was required to regulate the autophagy by lactate. Further analysis about ERK1/2 up- and downstream indicated that lactate regulates autophagy through ROS-mediated the activation of ERK1/2/mTOR/p70S6K pathway in skeletal muscle. The in vitro effects of lactate on autophagy also occurred in the gastrocnemius muscle of male Wistar rats. In conclusion, we provided the lactate-associated regulation evidence of autophagy in skeletal muscle by activating ROS-mediated ERK1/2/mTOR/p70S6K pathway. Since the increase in cellular lactate concentration is a hallmark of energy deficiency, the results provide insight into a skeletal muscle mechanism to fulfill its enhanced energy requirement.  相似文献

Autophagy is being increasingly implicated in both cell survival and death. However, the intricate relationships between drug-induced autophagy and apoptosis remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that a tubulin-binding noscapine analog, (R)-9-bromo-5-((S)-4,5-dimethoxy-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran-1-yl)-4-methoxy-6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-[1,3]-di-oxolo[4,5-g]isoquinoline (Red-Br-nos), exerts a novel autophagic response followed by apoptotic cell death in human prostate cancer PC-3 cells. Red-Br-nos-induced autophagy was an early event detectable within 12 h that displayed a wide array of characteristic features including double membranous vacuoles with entrapped organelles, acidic vesicular organelles, and increased expression of LC3-II and beclin-1. Red-Br-nos-triggered release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and attenuation of ROS by tiron, a ROS scavenger, reduced the sub-G1 population suggesting ROS-dependent apoptosis. Abrogation of ROS also reduced autophagy indicating that ROS triggers autophagy. Pharmacological and genetic approaches to inhibit autophagy uncovered the protective role of Red-Br-nos-induced autophagy in PC-3 cells. Direct effects of the drug on mitochondria viz. disruption of normal cristae architecture and dissipation of mitochondrial transmembrane potential revealed a functional link between ROS generation, autophagy, and apoptosis induction. This is the first report to demonstrate the protective role of ROS-mediated autophagy and induction of caspase-independent ROS-dependent apoptosis in PC-3 cells by Red-Br-nos, a member of the noscapinoid family of microtubule-modulating anticancer agents.  相似文献

Apoptosis and autophagy are genetically regulated, evolutionarily-conserved processes that can jointly seal the fate of cancer cells; however, substantial gaps remain in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that mediate the two cellular processes. In the present study, the exposure of murine fibrosarcoma L929 cells to oridonin led to the generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and, subsequently, the ROS triggered apoptosis by Bax translocation, cytochrome c release and ERK activations. In addition, oridonin induced autophagy in L929 cells, and the inhibition of autophagy by 3-MA or siRNA against LC3 and beclin 1 promoted oridonin-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, p38 and NF-κB were confirmed to have roles in inhibiting apoptosis but promoting autophagy. Moreover, the inhibition of autophagy could reduce oridonin-induced activation of p38. Finally, NF-κB activation was inhibited by blocking the p38 pathway. In conclusion, these findings indicate that oridonin-induced apoptosis can be regulated by ROS-mediated signaling pathways, and oridonin-induced autophagy may block apoptosis by up-regulating p38 and NFκB activation.  相似文献

Chalcones found in fruits and vegetables have promising cancer chemopreventive properties. This study attempts to identify the anticancer efficacies of chalcone flavokawain B (FKB) in the rhizomes of Alpinia pricei Hayata by examining key molecular events in non-small-cell lung cancer (A549) cells. Our results indicated that in human A549 cells, FKB (0–15 μg/ml) decreases cell viability and colony formation, dysregulates the Bax:B-cell lymphoma 2 ratio and increases apoptotic DNA fragmentation. Mitochondrial (caspase-9/-3 and poly ADP ribose polymerase [PARP]) signaling was found to be involved in FKB-induced apoptosis. In addition, FKB-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and N-acetylcysteine attenuated FKB-induced apoptotic cell death. Moreover, FKB triggered autophagy, as evidenced by the improved acidic vesicular organelle formation, lipidated light chain 3 (microtubule-related light chain 3) accumulation, and ATG7 expression and the decreased mammalian target of rapamycin phosphorylation. Furthermore, FKB suppressed ROS-mediated ATG4B expression. Inhibiting autophagy using 3-methyladenine/chloroquine diminished FKB-induced cell death, indicating that autophagy is triggered as a death mechanism by FKB. In summary, FKB has a crucial role in the execution and propagation of ROS-mediated apoptotic and autophagic cell death of lung adenocarcinoma cells.  相似文献

Background

Insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 is associated with tumorigenesis; its levels are elevated in several human cancers. IRS-1 protein binds to several oncogene proteins. Oxidative stress and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the initiation and progression of cancers. Cancer cells produce greater levels of ROS than normal cells do because of increased metabolic stresses. However, excessive production of ROS kills cancer cells. Autophagy usually serves as a survival mechanism in response to stress conditions, but excessive induction of autophagy results in cell death. In addition to inducing necrosis and apoptosis, ROS induces autophagic cell death. ROS inactivates IRS-1 mediated signaling and reduces intracellular IRS-1 concentrations. Thus, there is a complex relationship between IRS-1, ROS, autophagy, and cancer. It is not fully understood how cancer cells grow rapidly and survive in the presence of high ROS levels.

Methods and results

In this study, we established mouse NIH/3T3 cells that overexpressed IRS-1, so mimicking cancers with increased IRS-1 expression levels; we found that the IRS-1 overexpressing cells grow more rapidly than control cells do. Treatment of cells with glucose oxidase (GO) provided a continuous source of ROS; low dosages of GO promoted cell growth, while high doses induced cell death. Evidence for GO induced autophagy includes increased levels of isoform B-II microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), aggregation of green fluorescence protein-tagged LC3, and increased numbers of autophagic vacuoles in cells. Overexpression of IRS-1 resulted in inhibition of basal autophagy, and reduced oxidative stress-induced autophagy and cell death. ROS decreased the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase signaling, while overexpression of IRS-1 attenuated this inhibition. Knockdown of autophagy-related gene 5 inhibited basal autophagy and diminished oxidative stress-induced autophagy and cell death.

Conclusion

Our results suggest that overexpression of IRS-1 promotes cells growth, inhibits basal autophagy, reduces oxidative stress-induced autophagy, and diminishes oxidative stress-mediated autophagy-dependent cell death. ROS-mediated autophagy may occur via inhibition of IRS-1/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/mTOR signaling. Our data afford a plausible explanation for IRS-1 involvement in tumor initiation and progression.  相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generally small, short-lived and highly reactive molecules, initially thought to be a pathological role in the cell. A growing amount of evidence in recent years argues for ROS functioning as a signaling intermediate to facilitate cellular adaptation in response to pathophysiological stress through the regulation of autophagy. Autophagy is an essential cellular process that plays a crucial role in recycling cellular components and damaged organelles to eliminate sources of ROS in response to various stress conditions. A large number of studies have shown that DNA damage response (DDR) transducer ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein can also be activated by ROS, and its downstream signaling pathway is involved in autophagy regulation. This review aims at providing novel insight into the regulatory mechanism of ATM activated by ROS and its molecular basis for inducing autophagy, and revealing a new function that ATM can not only maintain genome homeostasis in the nucleus, but also as a ROS sensor trigger autophagy to maintain cellular homeostasis in the cytoplasm.  相似文献

Fluoride is an effective caries prophylactic, but at high doses can also be an environmental health hazard. Acute or chronic exposure to high fluoride doses can result in dental enamel and skeletal and soft tissue fluorosis. Dental fluorosis is manifested as mottled, discolored, porous enamel that is susceptible to dental caries. Fluoride induces cell stress, including endoplasmic reticulum stress and oxidative stress, which leads to impairment of ameloblasts responsible for dental enamel formation. Recently we reported that fluoride activates SIRT1 and autophagy as an adaptive response to protect cells from stress. However, it still remains unclear how SIRT1/autophagy is regulated in dental fluorosis. In this study, we demonstrate that fluoride exposure generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the resulting oxidative damage is counteracted by SIRT1/autophagy induction through c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling in ameloblasts. In the mouse-ameloblast-derived cell line LS8, fluoride induced ROS, mitochondrial damage including cytochrome-c release, up-regulation of UCP2, attenuation of ATP synthesis, and H2AX phosphorylation (γH2AX), which is a marker of DNA damage. We evaluated the effects of the ROS inhibitor N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and the JNK inhibitor SP600125 on fluoride-induced SIRT1/autophagy activation. NAC decreased fluoride-induced ROS generation and attenuated JNK and c-Jun phosphorylation. NAC decreased SIRT1 phosphorylation and formation of the autophagy marker LC3II, which resulted in an increase in the apoptosis mediators γH2AX and cleaved/activated caspase-3. SP600125 attenuated fluoride-induced SIRT1 phosphorylation, indicating that fluoride activates SIRT1/autophagy via the ROS-mediated JNK pathway. In enamel organs from rats or mice treated with 50, 100, or 125 ppm fluoride for 6 weeks, cytochrome-c release and the DNA damage markers 8-oxoguanine, p-ATM, and γH2AX were increased compared to those in controls (0 ppm fluoride). These results suggest that fluoride-induced ROS generation causes mitochondrial damage and DNA damage, which may lead to impairment of ameloblast function. To counteract this impairment, SIRT1/autophagy is induced via JNK signaling to protect cells/ameloblasts from fluoride-induced oxidative damage that may cause dental fluorosis.  相似文献

大量研究证明活性氧(ROS)在气孔运动中起信号分子的作用。保卫细胞中ROS的产生依赖于特定的酶,其中NADPH氧化酶组分RBOH已得到深入研究,并已证实其参与生物与非生物胁迫反应。植物激素包括脱落酸(ABA)、水杨酸(SA)、乙烯、生长素及细胞分裂素等,它们均通过ROS的介导来调控气孔运动。生物胁迫(如毒性细菌和真菌)也会调控气孔运动。ROS参与这些调控过程。保卫细胞中存在多层次对ROS产生及其作用的调节,抗氧化活性物质和ROS敏感蛋白(如蛋白激酶和磷酸酶)均可传递ROS信号并调节气孔运动。ROS对离子通道调节的证据也越来越多。保卫细胞由于可通过ROS整合复杂的信号途径,已成为研究植物ROS信号转导过程的良好模式系统。  相似文献
