STING regulates metabolic reprogramming in macrophages via HIF-1α during Brucella infection.
Macrophages metabolic reprogramming in response to microbial insults is a major determinant of pathogen growth or containment. Here, we reveal a distinct mechanism by which stimulator of interferon genes (STING), a cytosolic sensor that regulates innate ...

Most mesenchymal stem cells reside in a niche of low oxygen tension. Iron-chelating agents such as CoCl2 and deferoxamine have been utilized to mimic hypoxia and promote cell growth. The purpose of the present study was to explore whether a supplement of

Post-translational modulation of cell signalling through protein succinylation
Cells need to adapt their activities to extra- and intracellular signalling cues. To translate a received extracellular signal, cells have specific receptors that transmit the signal to downstream proteins so that it can reach the nucleus to initiate or ...

Ischemic accumulation of succinate causes cerebral damage by excess production of reactive oxygen species. However, it is unknown whether ischemic accumulation of succinate affects neural stem cell proliferation. In this study, we established a rat model

Activation of the Succinate Receptor GPR91 in Macula Densa Cells Causes Renin Release [PDF]
Macula densa (MD) cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) are salt sensors and generate paracrine signals that control renal blood flow, glomerular filtration, and release of the prohypertensive hormone renin. We hypothesized that the recently identified succinate receptor GPR91 is present in MD cells and regulates renin release.

The role of GPR91 in the Akita model of diabetic nephropathy (DN)
The importance of local tissue metabolism, succinate accumulation and signaling via its receptor GPR91 in the activation of the intra‐renal renin‐angiotensin system (RAS) in DN has been established by our laboratory using the streptozotocin (STZ) model.

Expression and Iron-Dependent Regulation of Succinate Receptor GPR91 in Retinal Pigment Epithelium [PDF]
GPR91, a succinate receptor, is expressed in retinal ganglion cells and induces vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression. RPE also expresses VEGF, but whether this cell expresses GPR91 is not known. Excessive iron is also proangiogenic, and hemochromatosis is associated with iron overload.

Cancer-derived extracellular succinate: a driver of cancer metastasis
Succinate is a tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediate normally confined to the mitochondrial matrix. It is a substrate of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). Mutation of SDH subunits (SDHD and SDHB) in hereditary tumors such as paraganglioma or reduction

Data on the mechanisms underlying succinate-induced aortic contraction
We describe the mechanisms underlying the vascular contraction induced by succinate. The data presented here are related to the article entitled “Pharmacological characterization of the mechanisms underlying the vascular effects of succinate” (L.N. Leite,

Pericytes are heterogeneous mural cells surrounding blood vessels that are critically involved in malignant progression. Here we identify a subset of vascular pericytes, defined by expression of PDGFR-β and GPR91, that promote tumorigenesis and tyrosine ...
