HOMOLOGOUS recombination , *TROPHOBLAST , *MISCARRIAGE , *ARYL hydrocarbon receptors , *RECURRENT miscarriage , *BRCA genes - Abstract
Human trophoblast cells are crucial for healthy pregnancy. However, whether the defective homologous recombination (HR) repair of dsDNA break (DSB) in trophoblast cells may induce miscarriage is completely unknown. Moreover, the abundance of BRCA1 (a crucial protein for HR repair), its recruitment to DSB foci, and its epigenetic regulatory mechanisms, are also fully unexplored. In this work, it is identified that a novel lnc‐HZ10, which is highly experssed in villous tissues of recurrent miscarriage (RM) vs their healthy control group, suppresses HR repair of DSB in trophoblast cell. Lnc‐HZ10 and AhR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor) form a positive feedback loop. AhR acts as a transcription factor to promote lnc‐HZ10 transcription. Meanwhile, lnc‐HZ10 also increases AhR levels by suppressing its CUL4B‐mediated ubiquitination degradation. Subsequently, AhR suppresses BRCA1 transcription; and lnc‐HZ10 (mainly 1‐447 nt) interacts with γ‐H2AX; and thus, impairs its interactions with BRCA1. BPDE exposure may trigger this loop to suppress HR repair in trophoblast cells, possibly inducing miscarriage. Knockdown of murine Ahr efficiently recovers HR repair in placental tissues and alleviates miscarriage in a mouse miscarriage model. Therefore, it is suggested that AhR/lnc‐HZ10/BRCA1 axis may be a promising target for alleviation of unexplained miscarriage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

TROPHOBLAST ,CELL proliferation ,MISCARRIAGE ,RECURRENT miscarriage ,INHIBITION of cellular proliferation - Abstract
Approximately 15–25% pregnant women end with miscarriage in the world. Environmental BaP (benzo(a)pyrene) and its terminal metabolite BPDE (benzo(a)pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide) may result in the dysfunctions of trophoblast cells, which might further lead to RM (recurrent miscarriage). However, potential mechanisms remain unelucidated. In this work, we identified a novel lnc-HZ05 highly expressed and a novel miR-hz05 lowly expressed in both trophoblast cells exposed to BPDE and human RM tissues. MiR-hz05 reduces FOXO3a mRNA level by weakening its mRNA stability. Lnc-HZ05 increases the expression of FOXO3a by acting as a ceRNA for miR-hz05, and then increases P21 level and reduces CDK2 level. Thus, cell cycle is arrested at G0/G1 phase and trophoblast proliferation is inhibited. Lnc-HZ05 harboring wild-type binding site for miR-hz05, but not its mutant site, could upregulate FOXO3a expression. In normal trophoblast cells, relatively less lnc-HZ05 and more miR-hz05 activate FOXO3a/P21/CDK2 pathway and promote trophoblast proliferation, giving normal pregnancy. In RM tissues and BPDE-treated human trophoblast cells, lnc-HZ05 is increased and miR-hz05 is reduced, both of which suppress this pathway and inhibit cell proliferation, and finally lead to miscarriage. Thus, lnc-HZ05 and miR-hz05 simultaneously regulate cell cycle and proliferation of BPDE-exposed trophoblast cells and miscarriage, providing new perspectives and clinical understandings in the occurrence of unexplained miscarriage.

Increasing evidences have shown that pregnant women might miscarry after exposure with environmental BaP (benzo(a)pyrene). Additionally, BPDE (benzo(a)pyren-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide), the ultimate metabolite of BaP, could induce dysfunctions of human trophoblast cells. However, it is rarely correlated between miscarriage and trophoblast dysfunctions. Moreover, their underlying mechanisms are still largely unidentified. In this study, a novel lncRNA (long non-coding RNA), lnc-HZ08, was identified to be highly expressed in human recurrent miscarriage (RM) tissues and in BPDE-treated human trophoblast cells. Lnc-HZ08 acts as a RNA scaffold to interact with both PI3K and its ubiquitin ligase CBL (Cbl proto-oncogene), enhances their protein interactions, and promotes PI3K ubiquitin degradation. In RM tissues and BPDE-treated trophoblast cells, DNA methylation level in lnc-HZ08 promoter region was reduced, which promotes estrogen receptor 1 (ER)–mediated lnc-HZ08 transcription. Subsequently, this upregulated lnc-HZ08 downregulated PI3K level, suppressed PI3K/p-AKT/p-P21/CDK2 pathway, and thus weakened proliferation, migration, and invasion of human trophoblast cells, which further induces miscarriage. These results may provide novel scientific and clinical insights in the occurrence of unexplained miscarriage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BPDE up-regulates lnc-HZ11, which down-regulates EGR1/NF-κB/CXCL12 pathway and suppresses trophoblast cell migration/invasion at intracellular levels. BPDE promotes donor trophoblast cells to secrete more EV-HZ11, which suppresses migration/invasion of the recipient trophoblast cells at intercellular levels, and is associated with unexplained miscarriage. Knockdown of murine lnc-Hz11 by EV-AS-Hz11 could efficiently alleviate miscarriage in BaP-exposed mice. The levels of EV-HZ11 in serum could predict the risk of miscarriage. [Display omitted] • BPDE up-regulates lnc-HZ11, which suppresses EGR1/NF-κB/CXCL12 and migration/invasion of trophoblast cells. • BPDE or lnc-HZ11 promotes trophoblast cells to secrete more EV-HZ11. • EV-HZ11 is transferred from donor cells to recipient cells and suppresses their migration/invasion. • Lnc-HZ11 and EV-HZ11 are closely associated with miscarriage. • Knockdown of murine lnc-Hz11 recovers migration/invasion and alleviates mouse miscarriage. • EV-HZ11 in serum predicts miscarriage risk. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate the intercellular crosstalk by transferring functional cargoes. Recently, we have discovered that BaP/BPDE exposure suppresses trophoblast cell migration/invasion and induces miscarriage, which are also regulate by lncRNAs at intracelluar levels. However, the EVs-mediated intercellular regulatory mechanisms are completely unexplored. Specifically, whether EVs might transfer BPDE-induced toxic lncRNA to fresh recipient trophoblast cells and suppress their migration/invasion to further induce miscarriage is completely unknown. In this study, we find that BPDE exposure up-regulates a novel lnc-HZ11, which suppresses EGR1/NF-κB/CXCL12 pathway and migration/invasion of trophoblast cells. Intercellular studies show that EV-HZ11 (lnc-HZ11 in EVs), which is highly expressed in BPDE-exposed donor cells, suppresses EGR1/NF-κB/CXCL12 pathway and migration/invasion in recipient cells by transferring lnc-HZ11 through EVs. Analysis of villous tissues collected from UM (unexplained miscarriage) patients and HC (healthy control) group shows that the levels of BPDE-DNA adducts, lnc-HZ11 or EV-lnc-HZ11, and EGR1/NF-κB/CXCL12 pathway are all associated with miscarriage. Mouse assays show that BaP exposure up-regulates the levels of lnc-Hz11 or EV-Hz11, suppresses Egr1/Nf-κb/Cxcl12 pathway, and eventually induces miscarriage. Knockdown of lnc-Hz11 by injecting EV-AS-Hz11 could effectively alleviate miscarriage in BaP-exposed mice. Furthermore, EV-HZ11 in serum samples could well predict the risk of miscarriage. Collectively, this study not only discovers EVs-HZ11-mediated intercellular mechanisms that BaP/BPDE suppresses trophoblast cell migration/invasion and induces miscarriage but also provides new approach for treatment against unexplained miscarriage through EV-HZ11.

MISCARRIAGE ,HUMAN reproduction ,RECURRENT miscarriage ,APOPTOSIS ,SPERMINE - Abstract
Normal pregnancy is essential for human reproduction. However, environmental BaP (benzo(a)pyrene) and its metabolite BPDE (benzo(a)pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide) induce dysfunctions of human trophoblastic cells, which could further result in miscarriage. Yet, the molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this work, a novel lnc-HZ03 and a novel miR-hz03 were identified. Both lnc-HZ03 and miR-hz03 were highly expressed in human recurrent miscarriage villous tissues and in BPDE-exposed trophoblastic cells. Lnc-HZ03 and miR-hz03 upregulated each other, forming a positive feedback loop. MiR-hz03 could also upregulate p53 level by enhancing its mRNA stability. Both lnc-HZ03 and p53 mRNA contained the target site for miR-hz03 and could directly interact with miR-hz03. It was this target site instead of its mutant on lnc-HZ03 that regulated p53 expression. Subsequently, the upregulated p53 facilitated SAT1 transcription and enhanced SAT1-catalyzed spermine metabolism, which further resulted in trophoblastic cell apoptosis and induced miscarriage. All together, the p53/SAT1 pathway upregulated by lnc-HZ03 and miR-hz03 could promote BPDE-induced human trophoblastic cell apoptosis and the occurrence of miscarriage, shedding novel light on the causes of miscarriage.

ENDOCRINE disruptors , *DISINFECTION by-product , *ANDROGEN receptors , *ESTROGEN receptors , *DRINKING water - Abstract
Dichloroacetic acid (DCAA) and trichloroacetic acid (TCAA) are two typical non-volatile disinfection by-products (DBPs) found in drinking water. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that they show reproductive toxicity. However, whether they might have endocrine disrupting properties remains largely unknown. To discover this, we treated male mice or pregnant mice with 0, 1-, 102-, 103-, 104-, or 5 × 104-fold maximal concentration level (MCL) of DCAA or TCAA in drinking water. In male mice, the levels of testosterone in serum and androgen receptor (AR) in testis were declined with ≥ 103-fold MCL of DCAA (26.4 mg/kg/d) or TCAA (52.7 mg/kg/d). In pregnant mice, miscarriage rates were increased with ≥ 104-fold MCL of DCAA (264 mg/kg/d) or ≥ 103-fold MCL of TCAA. The levels of FSH in serum were increased and those of estradiol and progesterone were reduced with ≥ 103-fold MCL of DCAA or TCAA. The protein levels of estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ) in ovary were reduced with ≥ 102-fold MCL of DCAA (2.64 mg/kg/d) or TCAA (5.27 mg/kg/d). Exposure to some certain fold MCL of DCAA or TCAA also altered the protein levels of ERα and ERβ in uterus and placenta. Exposure to 5 × 104-fold MCL of both DCAA and TCAA showed the combined effects. Therefore, both DCAA and TCAA could be considered as novel reproductive endocrine disrupting chemicals, which might be helpful for further assessment of the toxicological effects of DCAA and TCAA and the awareness of reproductive endocrine disrupting properties caused by DCAA and TCAA in drinking water. [Display omitted] • DCAA and TCAA function as endocrine-disrupting chemicals. • DCAA and TCAA reduce the levels of testosterone in serum and androgen receptor (AR) in testis of male mice. • DCAA and TCAA induce pregnant mouse miscarriage. • DCAA and TCAA increase follicle stimulating hormone levels and reduce estradiol and progesterone levels in serum of pregnant mice. • DCAA and TCAA reduce the levels of estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ) in ovaries, uterus, and placenta of pregnant mice.

BaP/BPDE exposure up-regulated free Fe2+ level and accelerated lipid peroxidation. Meanwhile, BaP/BPDE exposure also up-regulated MARCHF1 protein level, promoted its mediated ubiquitination degradation of GPX4, and hence decreased GPX4 protein level. Both pathways led to ferroptosis and further suppressed angiogenesis, which possibly induced miscarriage. Supplement with Gpx4 could efficiently suppress ferroptosis and recover angiogenesis in BPDE-exposed HUVECs and also alleviate miscarriage in BaP-exposed mouse miscarriage model. This study discovered novel toxicological effects and their underlying mechanisms that BaP/BPDE exposure induced ferroptosis, suppressed angiogenesis, and eventually induced miscarriage, as well as provided a promising approach to predict and treat against miscarriage. [Display omitted] • BPDE promoted HUVEC ferroptosis and suppressed angiogenesis by down-regulating GPX4 level. • BPDE promoted MARCHF1-mediated ubiquitination degradation of GPX4. • High level of BPDE-DNA adduct, ferroptosis, and defective angiogenesis in decidual tissues were associated with miscarriage. • Supplement with GPX4 suppressed ferroptosis, recovered angiogenesis, and alleviated miscarriage in BaP-exposed mouse model. • The levels of free Fe2+ and VEGFA in serum might reflect the risk of miscarriage. Environmental benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) and its ultimate metabolite BPDE (benzo(a)pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide) are universal and inevitable persistent organic pollutants and endocrine disrupting chemicals. Angiogenesis in placental decidua plays a pivotal role in healthy pregnancy. Ferroptosis is a newly identified and iron-dependent cell death mode. However, till now, BaP/BPDE exposure, ferroptosis, defective angiogenesis, and miscarriage have never been correlated; and their regulatory mechanisms have been rarely explored. In this study, we used assays with BPDE-exposed HUVECs (human umbilical vein endothelial cells), decidual tissues and serum samples collected from unexplained recurrent miscarriage and their matched healthy control groups, and placental tissues of BaP-exposed mouse miscarriage model. We found that BaP/BPDE exposure caused ferroptosis and then directly suppressed angiogenesis and eventually induced miscarriage. In mechanism, BaP/BPDE exposure up-regulated free Fe2+ level and promoted lipid peroxidation and also up-regulated MARCHF1 (a novel E3 ligase of GPX4) level to promote the ubiquitination degradation of GPX4, both of which resulted in HUVEC ferroptosis. Furthermore, we also found that GPX4 protein down-regulated the protein levels of VEGFA and ANG-1, two key proteins function for angiogenesis, and thus suppressed HUVEC angiogenesis. In turn, supplement with GPX4 could suppress ferroptosis, recover angiogenesis, and alleviate miscarriage. Moreover, the levels of free Fe2+ and VEGFA in serum might predict the risk of miscarriage. Overall, this study uncovered the crosstalk among BaP/BPDE exposure, ferroptosis, angiogenesis, and miscarriage, discovering novel toxicological effects of BaP/BPDE on human reproductive health. This study also warned the public to avoid exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons during pregnancy to effectively prevent adverse pregnancy outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
