Due to the essential role of cyclin D1 in regulating transition from G1 to S phase in cell cycle, aberrant cyclin D1 expression is a major oncogenic event in many types of cancers. In particular, the dysregulation of ubiquitination-dependent degradation of cyclin D1 contributes to not only the pathogenesis of malignancies but also the refractory to cancer treatment regiments with CDK4/6 inhibitors. Here we show that in colorectal and gastric cancer patients, MG53 is downregulated in more than 80% of tumors compared to the normal gastrointestinal tissues from the same patient, and the reduced MG53 expression is correlated with increased cyclin D1 abundance and inferior survival...

Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is a common occurrence in athletes and can lead to delayed onset muscle soreness, reduced athletic performance, and an increased risk of secondary injury. EIMD is a complex process involving oxidative stress, inflammation, and various cellular signaling pathways. Timely and effective repair of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and plasma membrane (PM) damage is critical for recovery from EIMD. Recent studies have shown that the targeted inhibition of phosphatase and tension homolog (PTEN) in skeletal muscles can enhance the ECM environment and reduce membrane damage in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) mice...

Neuropathic pain is one of the most common types of chronic pain, and it arises as a direct consequence of a lesion or disease that affects the somatosensory system. Mitsugumin53 (MG53), which is a member of the TRIM family of proteins and is known as TRIM72, exerts protective effects on muscle, lung, kidney, brain, and other cells or tissues. Recently, increasing evidence has indicated that MG53 plays a vital role in regulating neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. However, the relationship between MG53 and neuropathic pain is unclear...

Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in cadmium (Cd)-induced myocardial injury. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) and its mediated reperfusion injury salvage kinase (RISK) pathway have been demonstrated to be closely related to myocardial oxidative damage. Potentilla anserina L. polysaccharide (PAP) is a polysaccharide with antioxidant capacity, which exerts protective effect on Cd-induced damage. However, it remains unknown whether PAP can prevent and treat Cd-induced cardiomyocyte damages. The present study was desgined to explore the effect of PAP on Cd-induced damage in H9c2 cells based on MG53 and the mediated RISK pathway...

Due to their high number and variety, simple sequence repeats in DNA are a valuable source of genetic markers widely used in population genetics, genetic diversity, and fingerprinting. Schizophyllum commune is a cosmopolitan basidiomycete and a valuable object for biotechnology and mycology. It is often used as a model organism in genetic and population studies. Numerous genome sequences of S. commune are available in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database, allowing for a meticulous study of the distribution of simple tandem nucleotide repeats in the genomes of different strains, based on their origin...

Tripartite Motif Protein 72 (TRIM72, also named MG53) mediates membrane damage repair through membrane fusion and exocytosis. During injury, TRIM72 molecules form intermolecular disulfide bonds in response to the oxidative environment and TRIM72 oligomers are proposed to connect vesicles to the plasma membrane and promote membrane fusion in conjunction with other partners like dysferlin and caveolin. However, the detailed mechanism of TRIM72 oligomerization and action remains unclear. Here we present the crystal structure of TRIM72 B-box-coiled-coil-SPRY domains (BCC-SPRY), revealing the molecular basis of TRIM72 oligomerization, which is closely linked to disulfide bond formation...

Anesthetics exposure induces neurocognitive deficits during brain development and impairs self-renewal and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs). Tripartite motif 72 (TRIM72, also known as mitsugumin 53, MG53) is involved in tissue repair and plasma membrane damage repair. The neuroprotective effect of TRIM72 against sevoflurane-induced neurotoxicity of NSCs was investigated in this study. First, human NSCs were exposed to different concentrations of sevoflurane. Results showed that TRIM72 was downregulated in sevoflurane-treated NSCs...

Chronic muscle inflammation exacerbates the pathogenesis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), which is characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and weakness. NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat pyrin domain containing 3) inflammasome plays a key role in the inflammatory process, and its abnormal activation leads to a variety of inflammatory or immune diseases. TRIM72 (MG53) is a protective myokine for tissue repair and regeneration. However, little is known about the potential impact of TRIM72 in the crosstalk between mitophagy and inflammatory process of DMD...

Ensuring cell survival and tissue regeneration by maintaining cellular integrity is important to the pathophysiology of many human diseases, including kidney disease. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) is a member of the tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) protein family that plays an essential role in repairing cell membrane injury and improving tissue regeneration. In recent years, an increasing number of studies have demonstrated that MG53 plays a renoprotective role in kidney diseases. Moreover, with the beneficial effects of the recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) protein in the treatment of kidney diseases in different animal models, rhMG53 shows significant therapeutic potential in kidney disease...

Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common clinical problem after coronary angioplasty, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and organ transplantation, which can lead to cell damage and death. Mitsugumin 53 (MG53), also known as Trim72, is a conservative member of the TRIM family and is highly expressed in mouse skeletal and cardiac muscle, with minimal amounts in humans. MG53 has been proven to be involved in repairing cell membrane damage. It has a protective effect on I/R injury in multiple oxygen-dependent organs, such as the heart, brain, lung, kidney, and liver...

Ischemic pre-conditioning has been shown to protect hearts against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced cardiac injury. However, it is not feasible in clinic. Many researchers have tried to introduce brief I/R in skeletal muscle to mimic cardiac ischemic pre-conditioning, called remote ischemia pre-conditioning (RIPC). Studies from our group and other groups have shown that RIPC induces the release of cytokines from skeletal muscle (myokines) for tissue protection. Myokines play a central role in repair, inflammatory, and immune responses after injury...

BACKGROUND: As an integral component of cell membrane repair machinery, MG53 (mitsugumin 53) is important for cardioprotection induced by ischemia preconditioning and postconditioning. However, it also impairs insulin signaling via its E3 ligase activity-mediated ubiquitination-dependent degradation of IR (insulin receptor) and IRS1 (insulin receptor substrate 1) and its myokine function-induced allosteric blockage of IR. Here, we sought to develop MG53 into a cardioprotection therapy by separating its detrimental metabolic effects from beneficial actions...

The plasma membrane (sarcolemma) of skeletal muscle myofibers is susceptible to injury caused by physical and chemical stresses during normal daily movement and/or under disease conditions. These acute plasma membrane disruptions are normally compensated by an intrinsic membrane resealing process involving interactions of multiple intracellular proteins including dysferlin, annexin, caveolin, and Mitsugumin 53 (MG53)/TRIM72. There is new evidence for compromised muscle sarcolemma repair mechanisms in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)...

Cancer is the second leading cause of mortality after cardiovascular diseases in the United States. Chemotherapy is widely used to treat cancers. Since the development of drug resistance is a major contributor towards the failure of chemotherapeutic regimens, efforts have been made to develop novel inhibitors that can combat drug resistance and sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapy. Here we investigated the anti-cancer effects of MG53, a TRIM-family protein known for its membrane repair functions. We found that rhMG53 reduced cellular proliferation of both parental and ABCB1 overexpressing colorectal carcinoma cells...

MG53 is a tripartite motif (TRIM) family E3 ligase and plays important biological functions. Here we present the cryo-EM structure of human MG53, showing that MG53 is a homodimer consisting of a 'body' and two 'wings'. Intermolecular interactions are mainly distributed in the 'body' which is relatively stable, while two 'wings' are more dynamic. The overall architecture of MG53 is distinct from those of TRIM20 and TRIM25, illustrating the broad structural diversity of this protein family.

Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (RAC1) overexpressiosn and hyperactivation are correlated with aggressive growth and other malignant characteristics in a wide variety of cancers including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the regulatory mechanism of RAC1 expression and activation in HCC is not fully understood. Here, we demonstrated that E3 ubiquitin ligase MG53 (also known as tripartite motif 72, TRIM72) acted as a direct inhibitor of RAC1, and it catalyzed the ubiquitination of RAC1 and further inhibited RAC1 activity in HCC cells...

BACKGROUND: MG53, a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) protein family, plays an essential role in cell membrane repair and promotes cell survival. Recent studies show that systemic delivery of recombinant human MG53 (rhMG53) protein markedly attenuates tissue injury/inflammation, and facilitates healing. This study was performed to test whether intravenous (IV) administration of rhMG53 protein would decrease the lesion size in a clinically relevant large animal model of traumatic brain injury (TBI)...

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ function dysfunction featured by stimulated oxidative stress and inflammatory responses, in which about 40%-60% of sepsis patients are accompanied with cardiac dysfunction. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-derived exosomes exert critical roles in the treatment of multiple diseases through transferring non-coding RNAs. Circular RNA (circRNA) is a novel form of functional RNAs that involves in the progression of multiple cardiac pathological condition. Nevertheless, the function of MSCs-derived exosomal circRTN4 in sepsis-induced myocardial injury is still obscure...
