RESUMEN
Cold-induced injuries severely limit opportunities and outcomes of hypothermic therapies and organ preservation, calling for better understanding of cold adaptation. Here, by surveying cold-altered chromatin accessibility and integrated CUT&Tag/RNA-seq analyses in human stem cells, we reveal forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) as a key transcription factor for autonomous cold adaptation. Accordingly, we find a nonconventional, temperature-sensitive FOXO1 transport mechanism involving the nuclear pore complex protein RANBP2, SUMO-modification of transporter proteins Importin-7 and Exportin-1, and a SUMO-interacting motif on FOXO1. Our conclusions are supported by cold survival experiments with human cell models and zebrafish larvae. Promoting FOXO1 nuclear entry by the Exportin-1 inhibitor KPT-330 enhances cold tolerance in pre-diabetic obese mice, and greatly prolongs the shelf-life of human and mouse pancreatic tissues and islets. Transplantation of mouse islets cold-stored for 14 days reestablishes normoglycemia in diabetic mice. Our findings uncover a regulatory network and potential therapeutic targets to boost spontaneous cold adaptation.

ß-Phenylethanol (2-PE), as an important flavor component in wine, is widely used in the fields of flavor chemistry and food health. 2-PE can be sustainably produced through Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although significant progress has been made in obtaining high-yield strains, as well as improving the synthesis pathways of 2-PE, there still lies a gap between these two fields to unpin. In this study, the macroscopic metabolic characteristics of high-yield and low-yield 2-PE strains were systematically compared and analyzed. The results indicated that the production potential of the high-yield strain might be contributed to the enhancement of respiratory metabolism and the high tolerance to 2-PE. Furthermore, this hypothesis was confirmed through comparative genomics. Meanwhile, transcriptome analysis at key specific growth rates revealed that the collective upregulation of mitochondrial functional gene clusters plays a more prominent role in the production process of 2-PE. Finally, findings from untargeted metabolomics suggested that by enhancing respiratory metabolism and reducing the Crabtree effect, the accumulation of metabolites resisting high 2-PE stress was observed, such as intracellular amino acids and purines. Hence, this strategy provided a richer supply of precursors and cofactors, effectively promoting the synthesis of 2-PE. In short, this study provides a bridge for studying the metabolic mechanism of high-yield 2-PE strains with the subsequent targeted strengthening of relevant synthetic pathways. It also provides insights for the synthesis of nonalcoholic products in S. cerevisiae.

Vesicle fusion at preestablished plasma membrane release sites releases transmitters and hormones to mediate fundamental functions like neuronal network activities and fight-or-flight responses. This half-a-century-old concept-fusion at well-established release sites in excitable cells-needs to be modified to include the sequential compound fusion reported here-vesicle fusion at previously fused Ω-shaped vesicular membrane. With superresolution STED microscopy in excitable neuroendocrine chromaffin cells, we real-time visualized sequential compound fusion pore openings and content releases in generating multivesicular and asynchronous release from single release sites, which enhances exocytosis strength and dynamic ranges in excitable cells. We also visualized subsequent compound fusion pore closure, a new mode of endocytosis termed compound kiss-and-run that enhances vesicle recycling capacity. These results suggest modifying current exo-endocytosis concepts by including rapid release-site assembly at fused vesicle membrane, where sequential compound fusion and kiss-and-run take place to enhance exo-endocytosis capacity and dynamic ranges.
RESUMEN
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis, the most prominent endocytic mode, is thought to be generated primarily from relatively flat patches of the plasma membrane. By employing conventional and platinum replica electron microscopy and super-resolution STED microscopy in neuroendocrine chromaffin cells, we found that large Ω-shaped or dome-shaped plasma membrane invaginations, previously thought of as the precursor of bulk endocytosis, are primary sites for clathrin-coated pit generation after depolarization. Clathrin-coated pits are more densely packed at invaginations rather than flat membranes, suggesting that invaginations are preferred sites for clathrin-coated pit formation, likely because their positive curvature facilitates coated-pit formation. Thus, clathrin-mediated endocytosis closely collaborates with bulk endocytosis to enhance endocytic capacity in active secretory cells. This direct collaboration between two classically independent endocytic pathways is of broad importance given the central role of both clathrin-mediated endocytosis and bulk endocytosis in neurons, endocrine cells, immune cells, and many other cell types throughout the body.
RESUMEN
Transformation of flat membrane into round vesicles is generally thought to underlie endocytosis and produce speed-, amount-, and vesicle-size-specific endocytic modes. Visualizing depolarization-induced exocytic and endocytic membrane transformation in live neuroendocrine chromaffin cells, we found that flat membrane is transformed into Λ-shaped, Ω-shaped, and O-shaped vesicles via invagination, Λ-base constriction, and Ω-pore constriction, respectively. Surprisingly, endocytic vesicle formation is predominantly from not flat-membrane-to-round-vesicle transformation but calcium-triggered and dynamin-mediated closure of (1) Ω profiles formed before depolarization and (2) fusion pores (called kiss-and-run). Varying calcium influxes control the speed, number, and vesicle size of these pore closures, resulting in speed-specific slow (more than â¼6 s), fast (less than â¼6 s), or ultrafast (<0.6 s) endocytosis, amount-specific compensatory endocytosis (endocytosis = exocytosis) or overshoot endocytosis (endocytosis > exocytosis), and size-specific bulk endocytosis. These findings reveal major membrane transformation mechanisms underlying endocytosis, diverse endocytic modes, and exocytosis-endocytosis coupling, calling for correction of the half-a-century concept that the flat-to-round transformation predominantly mediates endocytosis after physiological stimulation.

Our previous study demonstrated that adenovirus-delivered GFP nuclear heme oxygenase-1 (nuclear HO-1, NHO-1) fragments lacking 23 amino acids at the C-terminus (Ad-GFP-HO-1C[INCREMENT]23) showed the potential therapeutic effects mediated by its improvement of the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) integrity. However, the NHO-1-mediated molecular mechanism in regulating the BSCB function remains unclear. The BSCB model in vitro was established via a coculture of primary rat brain microvascular endothelial cells (RBMECs) and spinal cord astrocytes on transwell system. NHO-1 markedly reduced the disruption of the BSCB integrity induced by hypoxia. And NHO-1 significantly attenuated the expression of miR-181c-5p, but increased the expression level of SOX5 protein. miR-181c-5p was shown as an essential miRNA for increasing the BSCB permeability under hypoxia condition. Furthermore, we identified that miR-181c-5p could regulate the expression of SOX5 through binding to the 3'-UTR of its mRNA. And the decreased BSCB permeability and upregulation of tight junction (TJ) protein expression induced by NHO-1 could be partly reversed by the inhibition of SOX5 or miR-181c-5p (+). The present study results provide a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms induced by NHO-1 in improving the BSCB integrity, which is associated with the regulation of miR-181c-5p/SOX5/TJ signaling pathway.

The blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) is an effective, tightly-connected tissue that reduces secondary spinal cord injury (SCI) by decreasing blood cell infiltration, inflammation, and neuronal cell death during primary SCI. However, the methods and molecular mechanisms of BSCB openness remain elusive. In the present study, we found that microRNA429 (miR-429) plays a vital role in the opening of the blood-spinal cord. Inhibiting the expression of miR-429 (antagomiR-429) resulted in increased expression levels of the tight junction (TJ) proteins, ZO-1, occludin, and claudin-5, in the BSCB and reduced BSCB permeability. Moreover, overexpression of miR-429 (agomiR-429) had the opposite effect. Krüppel-like factor 6 (KLF6) is a transcription factor of the zinc-finger family. Using RT-qPCR and western blotting, we found that miR-429 can negatively regulate the expression of the KLF6. Co-transfection of KLF6 and miR-429 demonstrated that miR-429 negatively regulates KLF6 to mediate TJ protein expression and BSCB permeability. Based on these results, we suggest that KLF6 may be a downstream target of miR-429, mediating TJ protein expression to regulate the BSCB.

For decades, two fusion modes were thought to control hormone and transmitter release essential to life; one facilitates release via fusion pore dilation and flattening (full collapse), and the other limits release by closing a narrow fusion pore (kiss-and-run). Using super-resolution stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy to visualize fusion modes of dense-core vesicles in neuroendocrine cells, we find that facilitation of release is mediated not by full collapse but by shrink fusion, in which the Ω-profile generated by vesicle fusion shrinks but maintains a large non-dilating pore. We discover that the physiological osmotic pressure of a cell squeezes, but does not dilate, the Ω-profile, which explains why shrink fusion prevails over full collapse. Instead of kiss-and-run, enlarge fusion, in which Ω-profiles grow while maintaining a narrow pore, slows down release. Shrink and enlarge fusion may thus account for diverse hormone and transmitter release kinetics observed in secretory cells, previously interpreted within the full-collapse/kiss-and-run framework.

The function and pharmacology of γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) are of great physiological and clinical importance and have long been thought to be determined by the channel pore-forming subunits. We discovered that Shisa7, a single-passing transmembrane protein, localizes at GABAergic inhibitory synapses and interacts with GABAARs. Shisa7 controls receptor abundance at synapses and speeds up the channel deactivation kinetics. Shisa7 also potently enhances the action of diazepam, a classic benzodiazepine, on GABAARs. Genetic deletion of Shisa7 selectively impairs GABAergic transmission and diminishes the effects of diazepam in mice. Our data indicate that Shisa7 regulates GABAAR trafficking, function, and pharmacology and reveal a previously unknown molecular interaction that modulates benzodiazepine action in the brain.

MicroRNA-429(miR-429) plays an important role in mesenchymal stem cells. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) is a nuclear transcription factor that regulates the proliferation, apoptosis and tolerance to hypoxia of mesenchymal stem cells. HIF-1α is also a target gene of miR-429. We investigated whether miR-429 plays a role in hypoxia tolerance with HIF-1α in human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs). The expression of miR-429 was increased by hypoxia in hAMSCs. miR-429 expression resulted in decreased HIF-1α protein level, but little effect on HIF-1α mRNA. While overexpression of HIF-1α increased the survival rate and exhibited anti-apoptosis effects in hAMSCs under hypoxia, co-expression of miR-429 reduced survival and increased apoptosis. However, miR-429 silencing with HIF-1α overexpression stimulated cell survival and reduced apoptosis. Co-expression of HIF-1α and miR-429 reduced VEGF and Bcl-2 proteins and increased Bax and C-Caspase-3 levels in hAMSCs under hypoxia compared with cells expressing only HIF-1α; cells with HIF-1α overexpression and miR-429 silencing showed the opposite effects. These results indicate that HIF-1α and angomiR-429 reciprocally antagonized each other, while HIF-1α and antagomiR-429 interacted with each other to regulate survival and apoptosis in hAMSCs under hypoxia. miR-429 increased VEGF and Bcl-2 protein levels and decreased Bax and cleaved Caspase-3 protein levels by promoting the synthesis of HIF-1α. These results indicate that miR-429 negatively regulates the survival and anti-apoptosis ability of hAMSCs by mediating HIF-1α expression and improves the ability of hAMSCs to tolerate hypoxia.

Objective: Under hypoxic conditions, the survival and apoptosis of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) were observed by transient transfection of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) gene, to investigate the effect of HIF-1α on hypoxic tolerance of hAMSCs. Methods: The hAMSCs were isolated and cultured from amniotic membrane tissue from voluntary donors who were treated with cesarean section. And the morphological observation by inverted phase contrast microscope and immunofluorescence detection of the expressions of stem cell markers OCT-4 and NANOG were performed to identify the cultured cells. The third generation hAMSCs were treated with 200 µmol/L CoCl 2, and transient transfection of plasmids were added according to the following grouping: group A was hAMSCs blank group; group B was pcDNA3.1 negative control group; group C was short hairpin RNA (shRNA) negative control group; group D was shRNA-HIF-1α interference group; group E was pcDNA3.1-HIF-1α over expression group. Cell survival rate of each group was measured by cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) at 12, 24, 48 hours after hypoxia treatment. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis rate of each group at 24 hours after hypoxia treatment. The expression levels of HIF-1α, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), Bax, and cleaved Caspase-3 (C-Caspase-3) proteins were detected by Western blot at 24 hours after hypoxia treatment. Results: CCK-8 assay showed that the cell survival rate of group D was significantly lower than those of groups A and C at all time points after hypoxia treatment; while the cell survival rate in group E was significantly increased than those in groups A and B, and the diffrences at 24 hours were significant ( P<0.05). In group E, the cell survival rate at 24 hours was significantly higher than those at 12 and 48 hours ( P<0.05). The results of flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate in group D was significantly higher than those in groups A and C ( P<0.05), and the apoptosis rate in group E was significantly lower than those in groups A and B ( P<0.05). Western blot showed that the expressions of HIF-1α, VEGF, and Bcl-2 proteins in group D were significantly decreased when compared with those in groups A and C, and the expressions of Bax and C-Caspase-3 proteins were significantly increased ( P<0.05). On the contrary, the expressions of HIF-1α, VEGF, and Bcl-2 proteins in group E were significantly higher than those in groups A and B, and the expressions of Bax and C-Caspase-3 proteins were significantly decreased ( P<0.05). Conclusion: Overexpression of HIF-1α gene can significantly improve hAMSCs tolerance to hypoxia, the mechanism may be related to up-regulation of VEGF and Bcl-2 expressions, and down-regulation of Bax and C-Caspase-3 expressions.

Fusion is thought to open a pore to release vesicular cargoes vital for many biological processes, including exocytosis, intracellular trafficking, fertilization, and viral entry. However, fusion pores have not been observed and thus proved in live cells. Its regulatory mechanisms and functions remain poorly understood. With super-resolution STED microscopy, we observed dynamic fusion pore behaviors in live (neuroendocrine) cells, including opening, expansion, constriction, and closure, where pore size may vary between 0 and 490 nm within 26 milliseconds to seconds (vesicle size: 180-720 nm). These pore dynamics crucially determine the efficiency of vesicular cargo release and vesicle retrieval. They are generated by competition between pore expansion and constriction. Pharmacology and mutation experiments suggest that expansion and constriction are mediated by F-actin-dependent membrane tension and calcium/dynamin, respectively. These findings provide the missing live-cell evidence, proving the fusion-pore hypothesis, and establish a live-cell dynamic-pore theory accounting for fusion, fission, and their regulation.

Salvianolic acid A (Sal A), a bioactive compound isolated from the Chinese medicinal herb Danshen, is used for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, the protective function of Sal A on preserving the role of blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) after spinal cord injury (SCI) is unclear. The present study investigated the effects and mechanisms of Sal A (2.5, 5, 10mg/kg, i.p.) on BSCB permeability at different time-points after compressive SCI in rats. Compared to the SCI group, treatment with Sal A decreased the content of the Evans blue in the spinal cord tissue at 24h post-SCI. The expression levels of tight junction proteins and HO-1 were remarkably increased, and that of p-caveolin-1 protein was greatly decreased after SCI Sal A. The effect of Sal A on the expression level of ZO-1, occluding, and p-caveolin-1 after SCI was blocked by the HO-1 inhibitor, zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP). Also, Sal A inhibited the level of apoptosis-related proteins and improved the motor function until 21days after SCI. In addition, Sal A significantly increased the expression of microRNA-101 (miR-101) in the RBMECs under hypoxia. AntagomiR-101 markedly increased the RBMECs permeability and the expression of the Cul3 protein by targeting with 3'-UTR of its mRNA. The expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and HO-1 was significantly increased after agomiR-101 treatment. Therefore, Sal A could improve the recovery of neurological function after SCI, which could be correlated with the repair of BSCB integrity by the miR-101/Cul3/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

The morphology of presynaptic specializations can vary greatly ranging from classical single-release-site boutons in the central nervous system to boutons of various sizes harboring multiple vesicle release sites. Multi-release-site boutons can be found in several neural contexts, for example at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) of body wall muscles of Drosophila larvae. These NMJs are built by two motor neurons forming two types of glutamatergic multi-release-site boutons with two typical diameters. However, it is unknown why these distinct nerve terminal configurations are used on the same postsynaptic muscle fiber. To systematically dissect the biophysical properties of these boutons we developed a full three-dimensional model of such boutons, their release sites and transmitter-harboring vesicles and analyzed the local vesicle dynamics of various configurations during stimulation. Here we show that the rate of transmission of a bouton is primarily limited by diffusion-based vesicle movements and that the probability of vesicle release and the size of a bouton affect bouton-performance in distinct temporal domains allowing for an optimal transmission of the neural signals at different time scales. A comparison of our in silico simulations with in vivo recordings of the natural motor pattern of both neurons revealed that the bouton properties resemble a well-tuned cooperation of the parameters release probability and bouton size, enabling a reliable transmission of the prevailing firing-pattern at diffusion-limited boutons. Our findings indicate that the prevailing firing-pattern of a neuron may determine the physiological and morphological parameters required for its synaptic terminals.
RESUMEN
Using patch clamp techniques, we characterized glycine-induced currents from cones in bullfrog retinal slices. Application of glycine to cone terminals induced an inward current, which was in part suppressed by strychnine. The remaining strychnine-resistant current component, which did not show polarity reversion in a range of -120 mV to +40 mV, was blocked by N[3-(4'-fluorophenyl)-3-(4'-phenylphenoxy)propyl] sarcosine, an antagonist of glycine transporter 1 (GlyT1), but not affected by amoxapine, an inhibitor of glycine transporter 2. Application of sarcosine, an agonist of GlyT1, to cone terminals induced an inward current that was completely suppressed by N[3-(4'-fluorophenyl)-3-(4'-phenylphenoxy)propyl] sarcosine or when external Na in Ringer's was replaced by choline. All these results show for the first time the functional expression of GlyT1 on bullfrog cones.
