Impaired detoxification of Acrolein interrupted ocular vascular integrity and kidney structure in akr7a3-/- zebrafish via enhancing Arachidonic acid/leukotriene metabolism

ABSTRACT: Acrolein (ACR) is an endogenous reactive unsaturated aldehyde that can be detoxified by the aldo-keto reductase (AKR) enzyme system. The accumulation of ACR is associated with several health issues, including inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiovascular diseases. In this study, an akr7a3 mutant zebrafish with the Tg(fli1: EGFP) signature was generated to investigate the effect of ACR on vascular integrity. Elevated ACR levels were observed in akr7a3-/- zebrafish larvae and adults. Subsequent experiments demonstrated that increased ACR induced an enlargement of the hyaloid and retinal vasculature, as well as alterations in the larvae pronephron and adult kidney. Transcriptome and metabolomics analyses, followed by validation experiments, revealed that the upregulation of arachidonic acid metabolism and leukotriene production are responsible for the observed vascular and organ changes. In conclusion, our data suggests that the loss of akr7a3 in zebrafish impairs the detoxification of ACR, which subsequently disrupts vascular integrity and normal kidney structure by promoting an inflammatory response.

Acrylamide acute neurotoxicity in adult zebrafish

Project description:Acute exposure to acrylamide (ACR), a type-2 alkene, may lead to a ataxia, skeletal muscles weakness and numbness of the extremities in exposed human and laboratory animals. Recently, a zebrafish model for ACR neurotoxicity mimicking most of the pathophysiological processes described in mammalian models, was generated in 8 days post-fertilization larvae. In order to better understand the predictive value of the zebrafish larvae model of acute ACR neurotoxicity, in the present manuscript the ACR acute neurotoxicity has been characterized in the brain of adult zebrafish, and the results compared with those obtained with the whole-larvae. Although qualitative and quantitative analysis of the data shows important differences in the ACR effects between the adult brain and the whole-larvae, the overall effects of ACR in adult zebrafish, including a significant decrease in locomotor activity, altered expression of transcriptional markers of proteins involved in synaptic vesicle cycle, presence of ACR-adducts on cysteine residues of some synaptic proteins, and changes in the profile of some neurotransmitter systems, are similar to those described in the larvae. Thus, these results support the suitability of the zebrafish ACR acute neurotoxicity recently developed in larvae for screening of molecules with therapeutic value to treat this toxic neuropathy.

Modeling acrylamide acute neurotoxicity in zebrafish larvae

Project description:Background: Acrylamide (ACR) is a broadly spread neurotoxic chemical of public health concern, as occupational or environmental exposure of humans to ACR may lead to a synaptopathy characterized by ataxia, skeletal muscles weakness and numbness of the extremities. Currently, only the mildly affected patients undergo complete recovery, and identification of new molecules with therapeutic bioactivity against ACR acute neurotoxicity is urgently needed. Objectives: We aimed to develop a zebrafish model for human ACR neurotoxicity. Methods: Adverse effects have been assessed at different levels, including analysis of the motor function (basal locomotor activity, visual motor response, kinematic of the touch-evoked escape response), histopathological evaluation (toluidine blue and whole-mount immunofluorescence), analysis of neural transcriptional markers (qPCR), proteomic analysis (μLC-MS-MS) and neurotransmitters profile (LC-MS/MS). Results: Our results show that zebrafish mimics most of the pathophysiological processes described in humans and mammalian models. Motor function was altered, including the response to sudden changes in light intensity. Specific effects were found on the presynaptic nerve terminals at the neuromuscular junction level, but not on the axonal tracts or myelin sheath integrity. Transcriptional markers of proteins involved in synaptic vesicle cycle were selectively altered, and the proteomic analysis showed that ACR-adducts were formed on cysteine residues of some synaptic proteins. Finally, analysis of neurotransmitters profile showed a significant effect found on cholinergic and dopaminergic systems. Conclusions: Thus, the zebrafish model for ACR acute neurotoxicity is suitable to be used larvae for in vivo high-throughput screening of small molecule libraries for identifying new drugs against this synaptopathy.

Elevated MG-H1 in glo1-/-aldh3a1-/- zebrafish caused microvasculature alterations and glucose metabolism impairment via decreased proteasome activity

Project description:Dicarbonyl stress is characterized by the abnormal accumulation of dicarbonyl reactive metabolites, leading to increased modification of proteins, DNA and lipids, thereby contributing to cellular and tissue dysfunction in diabetes, diabetic complications and other diseases. glo1 knockout zebrafish exhibited moderately increased MG levels, yet this was inadequate to induce trunk vessels alterations due to elevated ALDH activity and mRNA expression levels, which partially act as compensatory mechanism. Excess 4-HNE induced pancreas dysfunction in aldh3a1 knockout zebrafish larvae, inhibiting insulin expression and thereby facilitating hyperglycemia and hyaloid vasculature alterations. To evaluate the combined function of Glo1 and Aldh3a1 in glucose homeostasis and diabetic microvasculature, glo1-/-aldh3a1-/- zebrafish were generated using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Multiple experiments are performed regarding vasculature alterations, glucose homeostasis, transcriptome, and metabolomics in Tg(fli1:EGFP) zebrafish. glo1-/-aldh3a1-/- zebrafish larvae displayed angiogenic hyaloid vasculature caused by the elevated MG-H1 and decreased proteasomal chymotrypsin-like activity, which could be rescued by the MG-H1 scavenger L-carnosine and proteasome activator Betulinic acid treatments. In adult glo1-/-aldh3a1-/- zebrafish, impaired glucose metabolism, angiogenic retina vasculature and thickened GBM were observed. Thus, our data suggested that an important upstream factor contributing to these phenomena in the context of lacking glo1 and aldh3a1 is MG-H1, possibly through reduced proteasome activity.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Wildtype, akr1a1a-/- and Wildtype with Acrolein Treatment Zebrafish Larvae Transcriptomes

Project description:Our previous experiments showed the function of Akr1a1a was related to insulin resistance. The knockout of Akr1a1a led to poor acrolein detoxification and accumulated acrolein inhibits insulin receptors (insra/insrb) expression. To understand how the loss of Akr1a1a and acrolein reflects at the transcriptome level, we performed full genome RNA-Seq between akr1a1a+/+, akr1a1a-/- and akr1a1a+/+ with acrolein treatment zebrafish larvae at 120 hpf. An overview of RNA-Seq, including quality control, principal component analysis (PCA), and volcano plots of regulated genes showed comparable properties between akr1a1a mutants, wild type and acrolein treated wild type zebrafish larvae. We found the insulin receptor signaling pathway was down-regulated significantly in akr1a1a mutants and acrolein treated wild type larvae as compared to wild type larvae via gene set enrichment analysis (normalized enrichment score, -1.888, p=0.028; -1.93, p=0.019). Intriguingly, downstream signaling pathways including MAPK, signal transduction by protein phosphorylation and transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway were also significantly down-regulated in akr1a1a mutants and acrolein treated wild type larvae. Taken together, these results further suggest akr1a1a and acrolein as an important regulator in insulin receptor signaling transduction. Furthermore, we offer a comprehensive and more detailed evaluation of mRNA content within zebrafish larvae. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome would clearly illustrate genetic network and clarify complex biological functions.

Developmental vascular regression is regulated by a Wnt/b-catenin, MYC, P21 (CDKN1A) pathway that controls cell proliferation and cell death

Project description:Normal development requires tight regulation of cell proliferation and cell death. Here, we investigated these control mechanisms in the hyaloid vessels, a temporary vascular network in the mammalian eye that requires a Wnt/β-catenin response for scheduled regression. Transcriptome analysis of the postnatal day 5 mouse hyaloid showed expression of several Wnt pathway proteins. We investigated whether the hyaloid Wnt response was linked to the oncogene Myc, and the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor P21 (CDKN1A), both established regulators of cell cycle progression and cell death. Our analysis showed that the Wnt pathway coreceptors LRP5 and LRP6 have overlapping activities mediating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling in hyaloid vascular endothelial cells (VECs). We also showed that both Myc and Cdkn1a are downstream of the Wnt response and are required for hyaloid regression but for different reasons. Conditional deletion of Myc in VECs suppressed both proliferation and cell death. By contrast, conditional deletion of Cdkn1a resulted in VEC over-proliferation that countered the effects of cell death on regression. When combined with analysis of MYC, and P21 protein levels, this analysis suggests that a Wnt/β-catenin, MYC-P21 pathway regulates scheduled hyaloid vessel regression.

Disruption of endothelial glycocalyx after ischemic stroke onset: Activated scission activity of proHPSE by acrolein exposure

Project description:Infiltration of peripheral immune cells after blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction causes severe inflammation after a stroke. Although the endothelial glycocalyx functions as a barrier to circulating cells, the relationship between stroke severity and glycocalyx dysfunction remains unclear. In this study, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), a component of the endothelial glycocalyx, in ischemic stroke were studied using a photochemically induced thrombosis (PIT) mouse model. As results, decreased levels of heparan sulfate (HS) and chondroitin sulfate (CS) and increased activity of hyaluronidase 1 and heparanase (HPSE) were observed in ischemic brain tissues. HPSE expression in cerebral vessels increased after stroke onset and infarct volume greatly decreased after co-administration of N-acetylcysteine (NAC)+GAG oligosaccharides as compared to NAC administration alone. These results suggest that the endothelial glycocalyx was injured after the onset of stroke. Interestingly, scission activity of proHPSE produced by HBMEC/ciβ and HEK293 cells transfected with hHPSE1 cDNA were activated by acrolein exposure. We identified the ACR modified amino acid residues of proHPSE using nano LC-MS/MS, suggesting that ACR modification of Lys139 (6-kDa linker), and Lys107 and Lys161, located in the immediate vicinity of the 6-kDa linker, at least in part, is attributed to the activation of proHPSE. Since proHPSE, but not HPSE, localizes outside cells by binding with HS proteoglycans, ACR-modified proHPSE represents a promising target to protect the endothelial glycocalyx.
