Bulk RNA sequencing study of iGCB day3 cells to investigate differences between Eif3e cg1cre knockout B cells and control B cells

ABSTRACT: To obtain a larger number of Eif3e-deficient B cells induced by cg1cre, we utilized an in vitro germinal center B cell (iGCB) culture system. By day 3 of culture, we harvested abundant YFP+ Eif32-deficient B cells and their corresponding control cells. RNA-seq comparison revealed that Eif3e-deficient B cells upregulated some co-stimulatory molecules, including Cd80 and Icam1. GO enrichment analysis showed that upregulated genes were primarily associated with ribosome-related pathways, while downregulated genes were mainly enriched in lipid metabolism. The upregulation of co-stimulatory molecules may confer Eif3e-deficient B cells with the capacity to promote CD4+ T cell activation.

Project description:BACKGROUND: As an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death caused by lipid peroxidation, ferroptosis has been implicated in ischemic injury, but the underlying mechanisms in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remain poorly defined. Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) catalyzes detoxification of lipid aldehydes derived from lipid peroxidation and acetaldehydes from alcohol consumption. The Glu504Lys polymorphism of ALDH2 (rs671, ALDH2*2), affecting around 40% of East Asians, is associated with increased risk of MI. This study aims to investigate the role of ALDH2*2 and ferroptosis in AMI. METHODS: A Chinese cohort of 177 acute heart failure patients with ALDH2 wild type and ALDH2*2 was enrolled. The MI mouse model of left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery ligation was conducted on wild-type, ALDH2*2, and mice with cardiomyocyte-specific knockdown of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit E (eIF3E) by adeno-associated virus. The lipid peroxidation products were measured by mass spectrometry-based lipidomics and metabolomics in human plasma, mouse serum samples, mouse heart tissues, and primary cardiac myocytes. RESULTS: Human ALDH2*2 carriers exhibit more severe heart failure post-AMI with features of ferroptosis in plasma through lipidomic analysis, characterized by increased bioactive lipids and decreased antioxidants, such as Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). Similar features were observed in MI mouse models of ALDH2*2, whereas ferroptosis inhibition by Fer-1 significantly improved heart functions and reversed ferroptosis markers. Importantly, ALDH2*2 significantly decreased ALDH2 protein levels, while ferroptosis-related markers, including Transferrin receptor (TFRC) and Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), were notably upregulated in the infarct heart tissues. Mechanistically, ALDH2 physically interacts with the eIF3 complex via the eIF3E factor, which prevents the eIF3E-eIF4G1-mRNA assembly. The ALDH2*2 variant causes ALDH2 deficiency, disrupting its interaction with the eIF3 complex through releasing the bound eIF3E to assemble an eIF3E-eIF4G1-mRNA ternary complex, thereby driving selective translation of mRNAs (e.g., TFRC, ACSL4, and UAP1) containing the GAGGACR (R: represents A/G) motif to promote ferroptosis. Consistently, cardiomyocyte-specific eIF3E knockdown restored ALDH2*2 cardiac function by attenuating ferroptosis in MI. CONCLUSIONS: ALDH2*2 aggravates acute heart failure post-MI through promoting the selective translation of mRNAs containing the GAGGACR motif, thereby driving cardiomyocytes ferroptosis. Targeting ferroptosis represents a potential therapeutic option for mitigating MI injury, especially for ALDH2*2 carriers.
