Pharmacological modulation of Sigma-1 receptor ameliorates pathological neuroinflammation in rats with diabetic neuropathic pain via the AKT/GSK-3β/NF-κB pathway by Yuyu An, Shanshan Cao, Leilei Shi, Yuhan Zhang, Xin Wang, Shiyu Yuan, Yongheng Shi, Bin Wang, Jiping Liu, Chao-jun Han

“…Pharmacological inhibition of Sig-1R with BD1047 (10 μM) abolished Sig-1R-mediated activation of lipopolysaccharide-treated BV-2 microglial cells. It was also found that PRE-084 increased phosphorylation of serine/threonine protein kinase B (AKT) and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) at Ser9, inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB)-mediated neuroinflammation in the dorsal root ganglion, thus reducing DNP. …”

Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species trigger metformin-dependent antitumor immunity via activation of Nrf2/mTORC1/p62 axis in tumor-infiltrating CD8T lymphocytes by Kazuhiro Kakimi, Hirokazu Matsushita, Masaaki Komatsu, Eiryo Kawakami, Mikako Nishida, Nahoko Yamashita, Taisaku Ogawa, Keita Koseki, Eiji Warabi, Tomoyuki Ohue, Katsuyuki Shiroguchi, Heiichiro Udono

“…Melanoma cells containing an IFN-γ receptor (IFNγR) cytoplasmic domain deletion mutant was overexpressed and used for characterization of the metabolic profile of those tumor cells using a Seahorse Flux Analyzer.Results Met administration elevates mtROS and cell surface Glut-1, resulting in the production of IFN-γ in CD8TILs. mtROS activates Nrf2 in a glycolysis-dependent manner, inducing activation of autophagy, glutaminolysis, mTORC1, and p62/SQSTM1. mTORC1-dependent phosphorylation of p62 at serine 351 (p-p62(S351)) is also involved in activation of Nrf2. Conditional deletion of Nrf2 in CD8TILs abrogates mTORC1 activation and antitumor immunity by Met. …”
