Опубликована: Март 13, 2024

Abstract A recently emerging cell death pathway, known as copper‐induced death, has demonstrated significant potential for treating infections. Existing research suggests that cells utilizing aerobic respiration, opposed to those reliant on glycolysis, exhibit greater sensitivity death. Herein, a MnO 2 ‐loaded copper metal–organic frameworks platform is developed denoted MCM, enhance bacterial cuproptosis‐like via the remodeling of respiratory metabolism. The reversal hypoxic microenvironments induced cascade responses, encompassing reactivation suppressed immune responses and promotion osteogenesis angiogenesis. Initially, MCM catalyzed O production, alleviating hypoxia within biofilm inducing transition in respiration mode from glycolysis respiration. Subsequently, sensitized bacteria, characterized by enhanced tricarboxylic acid cycle activity, underwent owing increased concentrations aggregated intracellular dihydrolipoamide S‐acetyltransferase (DLAT). disruption also stimulated dendritic macrophages, thereby strengthening their antimicrobial activity through chemotaxis phagocytosis. Moreover, nutritional effects elements, coupled with alleviation, synergistically facilitated regeneration bones blood vessels. Overall, reshaping infection microenvironment presents promising avenue eradicating biofilms.

Bacterial pneumonia is one of the most challenging global infectious diseases with high morbidity and mortality. Considering antibiotic abuse resistance bacterial biofilms, a variety metal-based materials have been developed. However, due to oxygen environment lungs, some aerobic infection bacteria tolerance ROS, based on ROS may not achieve good therapeutic effects. Inspired by sensitivity cuproptosis respiratory cells, we designed copper composite antibacterial nanoparticle found that it can effectively induce cuproptosis-like death in lungs. To address challenge

The Role of Ferroptosis and Cuproptosis in Tuberculosis Pathogenesis: Implications for Therapeutic Strategies

Current Issues in Molecular Biology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 47(2), С. 99 - 99

Опубликована: Фев. 5, 2025

Tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) remains a global health crisis, with over 10 million people affected annually. Despite advancements in treatment, M.tb has developed mechanisms to evade host immune responses, complicating efforts eradicate the disease. Two emerging cell death pathways, ferroptosis and cuproptosis, have been linked TB pathogenesis. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of death, is driven lipid peroxidation reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. This process can limit replication depleting intracellular iron inducing macrophage necrosis. However, excessive may lead tissue damage aid bacterial dissemination. Cuproptosis, triggered copper accumulation, disrupts mitochondrial metabolism, leading protein aggregation death. exploits both metabolism survive within macrophages, manipulating these processes resist oxidative stress responses. review examines roles cuproptosis TB, discussing how manipulates pathways for survival. While therapeutic strategies targeting processes, such as inducers (Erastin, RSL3) inhibitors (Ferrostatin-1) ionophores (Disulfiram, Elesclomol) chelators, show promise, limited understanding potential off-target effects significant challenge. Further exploration provide insights into development targeted therapies aimed at controlling infection while minimizing damage. By elucidating complex interactions between ferroptosis, future could better address resistance improve clinical outcomes.
