    Abstract Overwhelming macrophage M1 polarization induced by malfunction of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) initiates inflammatory responses, which play a crucial role in various cardiovascular diseases. However, the underlying regulatory mechanism remains elusive. Here, we identified adaptor protein HIP-55 as a critical regulator of macrophage M1 polarization. The expression of HIP-55 was upregulated in M1 macrophage induced by Ang II. Overexpression of HIP-55 significantly promoted Ang II-induced macrophage M1 polarization, whereas genetic deletion of HIP-55 inhibited the Ang II-induced macrophage M1 polarization. Mechanistically, HIP-55 facilitated activator protein-1 (AP-1) complex activation induced by Ang II via promoting ERK1/2 and JNK phosphorylation. Moreover, blocking AP-1 complex activation can attenuate the function of HIP-55 in macrophage polarization. Collectively, our results reveal the role of HIP-55 in macrophage polarization and provide potential therapeutic insights for cardiovascular diseases associated with RAAS dysfunction.

    Abstract Objectives: During the development of systemic sclerosis (SSc), endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) has been shown to be one of the mechanisms leading to pulmonary fibrosis. However, the correlation between hypoxia and EndoMT was mostly unknown.
    Methods: R software was used to analyse differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in vascular endothelial cells under hypoxic conditions, and fibroblasts derived from SSc-related pulmonary fibrotic tissues, respectively. Using a web-based online Venn diagram tool, we analysed overlapping genes of DEGs between endothelial cells and fibroblasts. Finally, the protein-protein interaction network of EndoMT hub genes were constructed using the STRING database. The hub genes were knockdown by transfection of siRNAs in the hypoxia model of HULEC-5a cells constructed by liquid paraffin closure and then used to detect the effect on EndoMT-related biomarkers by western blot.
    Results: In this study, we found that INHBA, DUSP1, NOX4, PLOD2, BHLHE40 were upregulated in SSc fibroblasts and hypoxic-treated endothelial cells, while VCAM1, RND3, CCL2, and TXNIP were downregulated. In the hypoxia model of HULEC-5a cells, the expression of these 9 hub genes was confirmed by western blot. In addition, through Spearman's correlation analysis and Western blot, we confirmed that these hub genes were closely related to the EndoMT-related markers. The mechanisms of these hypoxia-induced EndoMT hub genes may be related to TGF-β, Notch, Wnt, NF-κ B, TNF and mTOR signalling pathways.
    Conclusions: Our study provides new insights into the occurrence and development of SSc-related pulmonary fibrosis resulting from hypoxia-induced EndoMT.

    Abstract G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of membrane receptors that serve as the most important drug targets. Classically, GPCR internalization has been considered to lead to receptor desensitization. However, many studies over the past decade have reported that internalized membrane receptors can trigger distinct signal activation. The "internalized activation" provides a completely new understanding for the receptor internalization, the mechanism of physiology/pathology and novel drug targets for precision medicine. GPCR internalization undergoes a series of strict regulations, especially by posttranslational modifications (PTMs). Here, this review summarizes different PTMs in GPCR internalization and analyzes their significance in GPCR internalization dynamics, internalization routes, postinternalization fates, and related diseases, which will offer new insights into the regulatory mechanism of GPCR signaling and novel drug targets for precision medicine.

    Abstract Many studies over the past decade have reported that internalized membrane receptors can trigger distinct signal activation, rather than being desensitized inside the cell. Here, we propose the concept of 'internalized activation' as a distinctive component of the receptor theory framework and exhibit its significance and role in diseases.

    Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) was rapidly identified as the critical functional receptor for SARS-CoV-2. ACE2 is well-known as a counter-regulator of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and plays a key role in the cardiovascular system. Given that ACE2 functions as both a SARS-CoV-2 receptor and a RAS modulator, the treatment for COVID-19 presents a dilemma of how to limit virus entry but protect ACE2 physiological functions. Thus, an in-depth summary of the recent progress of ACE2 research and its relationship to the virus is urgently needed to provide possible solution to the dilemma. Here, we summarize the complexity and interplay between the coronavirus, ACE2 and RAS (including anti-RAS drugs). We propose five novel working modes for functional receptor for SARS-CoV-2 infection and the routes of ACE2-mediated virus entering host cells, as well as its regulatory mechanism. For the controversy of anti-RAS drugs application, we also give theoretical analysis and discussed for drug application. These will contribute to a deeper understanding of the complex mechanisms of underlying the relationship between the virus and ACE2, and provide guidance for virus intervention strategies.

    Abstract Nanoparticles are promising tools for biomedicine. Many nanoparticles are internalized to function. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is one of the most important mechanisms for nanoparticle internalization. However, the regulatory mechanism of clathrin-mediated nanoparticle endocytosis is still unclear. Here, we report that the adapter protein HIP-55 regulates clathrin-mediated nanoparticle endocytosis. CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs), a typical nanoparticle, enter cells through the HIP-55-dependent clathrin endocytosis pathway. Both pharmacological inhibitor and genetic intervention demonstrate that QDs enter cells through clathrin-mediated endocytosis. HIP-55 can interact with clathrin and promote clathrin-mediated QDs endocytosis. Furthermore, HIP-55 ΔADF which is defective in F-actin binding fails to promote QDs endocytosis, indicating HIP-55 promotes clathrin-mediated QDs endocytosis depending on interaction with F-actin.

    Abstract The present study focused on the extraction of water-soluble dietary fiber (CSDF) and water-insoluble dietary fiber (CIDF) from celery. It investigated their effects on glutinous rice starch's (GRS) physicochemical, structural, and digestive properties. The results showed that as the addition of the two dietary fibers increased, they compounded with GRS to varying degrees, with the complexing index reaching 69.41 % and 60.81 %, respectively. The rheological results indicated that the two dietary fibers reduced the viscosity of GRS during pasting and inhibited the short-term regrowth of starch. The FTIR and XRD results revealed that the two fibers interacted with GRS through hydrogen bonding, effectively inhibiting starch retrogradation. Furthermore, both fibers increased the pasting temperature of GRS, thus delaying its pasting and exhibiting better thermal stability. Regarding digestibility, the starch gels containing dietary fibers exhibited significantly reduced digestibility, with RS significantly increased by 8.15 % and 8.95 %, respectively. This study provides insights into the interaction between two dietary fibers and GRS during processing. It enriches the theoretical model of dietary fiber-starch interaction and provides a reference for the application development of starch-based functional foods.

    Abstract Classically, the fate of internalized membrane receptors includes receptor degradation and receptor recycling. However, recent findings have begun to challenge these views. Much research demonstrated that many internalized membrane receptors can trigger distinct signal activation rather than being desensitized inside the cell. Here, we introduce the concept of "internalized activation" which not only represents a new mode of receptor activation, but also endows the new fate for receptor internalization (from death to life). The new activation mode and fate of membrane receptor are ubiquitous and have unique theoretical significance. We systematically put forward the features, process, and regulation of "internalized activation" and its significance in signal transduction and diseases. "Internalized activation" will provide a completely new understanding for the theory of receptor activation, internalization and novel drug targets for precision medicine.
