Ferroptosis is a redox-driven type of regulated cell death program arising from maladaptation of three metabolic pathways: glutathione homeostasis, iron handling and lipid peroxidation. Though GSH/Gpx4 is the predominant system detoxifying phospholipid hydroperoxides (PLOOH) in mammalian cells, recently Gpx4-independent regulators of ferroptosis like ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1) in resistant cancer lines and iNOS/NO
•
in M1 macrophages have been discovered. We previously reported that
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(PA) utilizes its 15- lipoxygenase (pLoxA) to trigger ferroptotic death in epithelial cells by oxidizing the host arachidonoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (ETE-PE) into pro-ferroptotic 15-hydroperoxy- arachidonyl-PE (15-HpETE-PE). Here we demonstrate that PA degrades the host GPx4 defense by activating the lysosomal chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA). In response, the host stimulates the iNOS/NO

-driven anti-ferroptotic mechanism to stymie lipid peroxidation and protect GPx4/GSH-deficient cells. By using a co-culture model system, we showed that macrophage-produced NO

can distantly prevent PA stimulated ferroptosis in epithelial cells as an inter-cellular mechanism. We further established that suppression of ferroptosis in epithelial cells by NO

is enabled through the suppression of phospholipid peroxidation, particularly the production of pro-ferroptotic 15-HpETE-PE signals. Pharmacological targeting of iNOS (NO

Clinical features of overlap autoimmune hepatitis/primary biliary cholangitis and morphological-proved sarcoid lesions (lungs, lymph nodes, skin) were performed. Data of long-term clinical observation presented in comparison with the results of laboratory datas, instrumental and morphological studies of liver tissue, lungs, skin. The modern aspects of pathogenesis of association autoimmune and granulomatous diseases arediscussed on the example of clinical cases of combination of cholestatic variants of autoimmune hepatitis and generalized sarcoidosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
