O-GlcNAcylation attenuates ischemia-reperfusion-induced pulmonary epithelial cell ferroptosis via the Nrf2/G6PDH pathway by Liuqing Yang, Hexiao Tang, Jin Wang, Dawei Xu, Rui Xuan, Songping Xie, Pengfei Xu, Xinyi Li

“…Furthermore, both the chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay and the dual-luciferase reporter assay indicated that Nrf2 could bind with translation start site (TSS) of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and promote its transcriptional activity. …”

Cellular rejuvenation protects neurons from inflammation-mediated cell death by Sienna S. Drake, Abdulshakour Mohammadnia, Aliyah Zaman, Christine Gianfelice, Kali Heale, Adam M.R. Groh, Elizabeth M.-L. Hua, Matthew A. Hintermayer, Yuancheng Ryan Lu, David Gosselin, Stephanie Zandee, Alexandre Prat, Jo Anne Stratton, David A. Sinclair, Alyson E. Fournier

“…This is supported by immunostaining demonstrating alterations to the nuclear envelope, modifications in chromatin marks, and accumulation of DNA damage. Transduction of RGCs with an Oct4-Sox2-Klf4 adeno-associated virus (AAV) to rejuvenate the transcriptome enhances RGC survival in EAE and improves visual acuity. …”
