Transcription factor NRF2 as a therapeutic target for chronic diseases: a systems medicine approach
2018
Systems medicine has a mechanism-based rather than a symptom- or organ-based approach to disease and identifies therapeutic targets in a nonhypothesis-driven manner. In this work, we apply this to transcription factor nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2) by cross-validating its position in a protein-protein interaction network (the NRF2 interactome) functionally linked to cytoprotection in low-grade stress, chronic inflammation, metabolic alterations, and reactive oxygen species formation. Multiscale network analysis of these molecular profiles suggests alterations of NRF2 expression and activity as a common mechanism in a subnetwork of diseases (the NRF2 diseasome). This netw…
High efficacy and safety of triple therapy in HCV genotype 1 and moderate fibrosis: a multicenter study of clinical practice in Spain.
2015
Background and rational. Telaprevir-based therapy (TBT) has been extensively evaluated in clinical trials. So we designed a study to compare the efficacy and safety of TBT between patients with moderate fibrosis and those suffering from advanced fibrosis in clinical practice. A multicenter observational and ambispective study was conducted. It included 582 patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1, 214 with fibrosis F2, and 368 with F3/F4 (F3: 148; F4: 220). Results. The mean patient age was 55 years, 67% male. Type of prior response was 22% naive, 57% relapsers, and 21% partial/null responders, 69% had high viral load (> 800,000 IU/mL). HCV genotypes were 1a (19%), 1b (69%), and 1 (12%)…
Corrigendum to “European contribution to the study of ROS: A summary of the findings and prospects for the future from the COST action BM1203 (EU-ROS…
2018
The European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) provides an ideal framework to establish multi-disciplinary research networks. COST Action BM1203 (EU-ROS) represents a consortium of researchers from different disciplines who are dedicated to providing new insights and tools for better understanding redox biology and medicine and, in the long run, to finding new therapeutic strategies to target dysregulated redox processes in various diseases. This report highlights the major achievements of EU-ROS as well as research updates and new perspectives arising from its members. The EU-ROS consortium comprised more than 140 active members who worked together for four years on the topics b…

Time-course of thiol oxidation of protein phosphatases during cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis
2018
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an acute inflammatory process of the pancreatic gland. The aim of this work was to evaluate the role of thiol oxidation of key proteins that can be involved in the regulation of the inflammatory process during AP. AP was induced in C57BL/6 mice by 7 hourly subcutaneous injections of cerulein (50 ug/kg bw). Animals were sacrificed after 1, 3, 5 and 7 injections of cerulein. One hour after the first injection, hyperoxidation of peroxiredoxin 1–4 was detected coinciding with a H2O2 peak. Three hours later, a marked up-regulation of mRNA and protein expression of sulfiredoxin, partially mediated by Nrf-2, takes place. The up-regulation of sulfiredoxin seems to be resp…
Effects of Nrf2 deficiency on bone microarchitecture in an experimental model of osteoporosis
2014
Objective. Redox imbalance contributes to bone fragility. We have evaluated the in vivo role of nuclear factor erythroid derived 2-related factor-2 (Nrf2), an important regulator of cellular responses to oxidative stress, in bone metabolism using a model of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Methods. Ovariectomy was performed in both wild-type and mice deficient in Nrf2 (Nrf2-/-). Bone microarchitecture was analyzed by CT. Serum markers of bone metabolism were also measured. Reactive oxygen species production was determined using dihydrorhodamine 123. Results. Sham-operated or ovariectomized Nrf2 -/- mice exhibit a loss in trabecular bone mineral density in femur, accompanied by a reduction in co…
Heme oxygenase-1 induction modulates microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 expression and prostaglandin E2 production in osteoarthritic chondrocytes
2009
Pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) may participate in the pathogenesis of cartilage damage in osteoarthritis (OA) through the production of catabolic enzymes and inflammatory mediators. Induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) has previously been shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects in different cell types. We have investigated whether HO-1 induction may modify chondrocyte viability and the production of relevant mediators such as oxidative stress and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) elicited by IL-1beta in OA chondrocytes. Chondrocytes were isolated from OA cartilage and used in primary culture. Cells were stimulated with IL-1beta in the absence or presence of the H…
Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition) 1
2021
Contains fulltext : 232759.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Thus, it is important to formulate on a regular basis updated guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Despite numerous reviews, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to evaluate autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to…
