RÉSUMÉ

Toxoplasma gondii is a worldwide parasite that can infect almost all kinds of mammals and cause fatal toxoplasmosis in immunocompromised patients. Apoptosis is one of the principal strategies of host cells to clear pathogens and maintain organismal homeostasis, but the mechanism of cell apoptosis induced by T. gondii remains obscure. To explore the apoptosis influenced by T. gondii, Vero cells infected or uninfected with the parasite were subjected to apoptosis detection and subsequent dual RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Using high-throughput Illumina sequencing and bioinformatics analysis, we found that pro-apoptosis genes such as DNA damage-inducible transcript 3 (DDIT3), growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible α (GADD45A), caspase-3 (CASP3), and high-temperature requirement protease A2 (HtrA2) were upregulated, and anti-apoptosis genes such as poly(adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose) polymerase family member 3 (PARP3), B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), and baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) repeat containing 5 (BIRC5) were downregulated. Besides, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 1 (TRAF1), TRAF2, TNF receptor superfamily member 10b (TNFRSF10b), disabled homolog 2 (DAB2)‍-interacting protein (DAB2IP), and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 3 (ITPR3) were enriched in the upstream of TNF, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways, and TRAIL-receptor 2 (TRAIL-R2) was regarded as an important membrane receptor influenced by T. gondii that had not been previously considered. In conclusion, the T. gondii RH strain could promote and mediate apoptosis through multiple pathways mentioned above in Vero cells. Our findings improve the understanding of the T. gondii infection process through providing new insights into the related cellular apoptosis mechanisms.

RÉSUMÉ

In recent years, the regulatory role of microRNAs in liver pathological process has attracted more and more attention. In viral hepatitis and steatohepatitis, microRNA-335 (miRNA-335) regulates the progression of hepatitis via the transcription factor sex-determining region Y-box 4; in the development and progression of progressive liver fibrosis and liver cancer, miRNA-335 affects collagen production, deposition, and degradation in the liver via the target genes including hypoxia-inducible factor 1α, phosphatase and tensin homologue, Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 1, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, twist family bHLH transcription factor 1, and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor and thus regulates the migration and invasion of hepatic stellate cells and hepatoma cells. This article summarizes the research advances in the role of miRNA-335 in hepatitis, liver fibrosis, and liver cancer in recent years, and based on existing data, it is pointed out that the miRNA-335/QSOX1 regulatory axis may mediate artesunate against schistosomal liver fibrosis by inhibiting hepatic stellate cell activation, so as to provide new ideas for the treatment of liver fibrosis and other liver diseases.
