Abstract:
Cataract, a painless and progressive disorder is manifested as the opacification of the lens that represents the most significant cause of blindness worldwide. The objective of this study is to unveil the function of Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) and potential action mechanisms against cataract. The ferroptosis-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and pivot genes were extracted through the comprehensive bioinformatics methods. Erastin was applied for inducing ferroptosis in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-treated SRA01/04 cells, and validated by detecting content of intracellular iron, glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA). Additionally, the effects of KRAS deficiency on ferroptosis were determined by functional assays. The proteins expression related to ferroptosis and Hippo pathway were determined by Western blotting. A total of 73 ferroptosis-related DEGs were discovered, and 6 critical core genes were confirmed upregulation in cataract cell model. The H2O2-treated SRA01/04 cells exhibited decrease of cell viability and proliferation, iron accumulation, MDA increase, GSH consumption, rise of COX2 and decline of GPX4, with further aggravated under erastin treatment, while the phenomena were improved by KRAS knockdown. Additionally, KRAS deficiency was involved in the Hippo signalling pathway activation. Downregulation of KRAS might restrain ferroptosis and affect Hippo pathway in cataract.Keywords:

Abstract Allelic imbalance is reported to be a frequent event in cancers and a common feature associated with oncogenes such as KRAS and BRAF. However the functional and therapeutic consequences of such imbalances are poorly understood. Mutations in the KRAS oncogene are one of the most prevalent events in human cancers and heterozygous KRAS mutations are well-described functionally and are thus viewed as sufficient for tumorigenesis. Recent evidence shows high incidence of KRAS gene dosage changes in human cancers, including loss of the normal wild-type allele of KRAS. However, there is still much debate over the function of wild-type KRAS in tumour initiation, progression and therapy response. Using advanced genetically engineered mouse models of colorectal cancer (VillinCRE Apcfl/fl; LSL-KrasG12D/+ (AK), LSL-KrasG12D/+; Trp53fl/fl; Rosa26N1iCD/+ (KPN)) we investigated the functional impact of wild-type Kras in oncogenic Kras driven tumour initiation (AK), progression and metastasis (KPN) in vivo. Mechanistically, wild-type Kras restrains oncogenic Kras signalling and significantly affects the efficiency of the oncogenic Kras induced transformation and response to therapy. We demonstrate a suppressive role for wild-type Kras during tumorigenesis and highlight the critical impact of wild-type Kras upon therapeutic response and tumour progression in Kras mutant CRC. Wild-type KRAS-deficient colorectal tumours are characterized by increased MAPK signalling and transcriptional activation of MAPK regulators. Importantly, loss of wild-type Kras in oncogenic KRAS-driven aggressive KPN tumours significantly alter tumour progression and liver metastasis, showing increased immune infiltration and WNT signalling. In addition, loss of wild-type Kras modulates response to therapeutic intervention and sensitizes wild-type Kras deficient tumours to MEK1/2 inhibition. This study demonstrates a suppressive role for wild-type Kras during tumour initiation and highlights the critical impact of wild-type Kras upon therapeutic response to MAPK and tumour progression in KRAS mutant CRC.

The Hippo pathway is an evolutionarily conserved pathway that serves to promote cell death and differentiation while inhibiting cellular proliferation across species. The downstream effectors of this pathway, yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ), are considered vital in promoting the output of the Hippo pathway, with activation of upstream kinases negatively regulating YAP/TAZ activity. The upstream regulation of the Hippo pathway is not entirely understood on a molecular level. However, several studies have shown that numerous cellular and non-cellular mechanisms such as cell polarity, contact inhibition, soluble factors, mechanical forces, and metabolism can convey external stimuli to the intracellular kinase cascade, promoting the activation of key components of the Hippo pathway and therefore regulating the subcellular localisation and protein activity of YAP/TAZ. This review will summarise what we have learnt about the role of intercellular junction-associated proteins in the activation of this pathway, including adherens junctions and tight junctions, and in particular our latest findings about the desmosomal components, including desmoglein-3 (DSG3), in the regulation of YAP signalling, phosphorylation, and subcellular translocation.

The Hippo pathway, an evolutionarily conserved signalling mechanism, controls organ size and tumourigenesis. Increasing lines of evidence suggest that autophagy, an important mechanism of lysosome-mediated cellular degradation, is regulated by the Hippo pathway, which thereby profoundly affects cell growth and death responses in various cell types. In the heart, Mst1, an upstream component of the Hippo pathway, not only induces apoptosis but also inhibits autophagy through phosphorylation of Beclin 1. YAP/TAZ, transcription factor co-factors and the terminal effectors of the Hippo pathway, affect autophagy through transcriptional activation of TFEB, a master regulator of autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis. The cellular abundance of YAP is negatively regulated by autophagy and suppression of autophagy induces accumulation of YAP, which, in turn, acts as a feedback mechanism to induce autophagosome formation. Thus, the Hippo pathway and autophagy regulate each other, thereby profoundly affecting cardiomyocyte survival and death. This review discusses the interaction between the Hippo pathway and autophagy and its functional significance during stress conditions in the heart and the cardiomyocytes therein.

In the article, the authors believe that the establishment of a healthy lifestyle for the younger generation is today considered in the practice of schools and universities as one of the priority directions of the humanization of education. A special status is given to the concept of “valeological culture”, the significance of the formation of which, as exemplified by younger schoolchildren, is due to the need to preserve and improve their physical, mental and social well-being. The authors state that health and physical capacity are a condition and basis for the disclosure of a person’s potential. The real lifestyle of a person subsequently depends on how successfully it is possible to form and consolidate the foundations of valeological culture and the skills of a healthy lifestyle at a young age. In this regard, it is believed that in universities it is necessary to pay special attention to the formation of the readiness of future teachers to organize work to develop the valeological culture of schoolchildren. The authors offer a number of important ideas in this direction, give a description of the method of work. Keywords: health, healthy lifestyle, valeological culture, formation of readiness, professional training

Oncogenic KRAS stimulates several pro-survival pathways, but it also triggers the trans-activation of pro-apoptotic genes. In our work, we show that G13D mutations of KRAS activate the MAPK pathway, and ERK2, but not ERK1, up-regulates Noxa basal levels. Accordingly, premalignant epithelial cells are sensitized to various cytotoxic compounds in a Noxa-dependent manner. In contrast to these findings, colorectal cancer cell sensitivity to treatment is independent of KRAS status and Noxa levels are not up-regulated in the presence of mutated KRAS despite the fact that ERK2 still promotes Noxa expression. We therefore speculated that other survival pathways are counteracting the pro-apoptotic effect of mutated KRAS and found that the inhibition of AKT restores sensitivity to treatment, especially in presence of oncogenic KRAS. In conclusion, our work suggests that the pharmacological inhibition of the pathways triggered by mutated KRAS could also switch off its oncogene-activated pro-apoptotic stimulation. On the contrary, the combination of chemotherapy to inhibitors of specific pro-survival pathways, such as the one controlled by AKT, could enhance treatment efficacy by exploiting the pro-death stimulation derived by oncogene activation.
