Cope with copper: From molecular mechanisms of cuproptosis to copper-related kidney diseases.
International Immunopharmacology 2024 April 25
Cuproptosis has recently been identified as a novel regulatory mechanism of cell death. It is characterized by the accumulation of copper in mitochondria and its binding to acylated proteins. These characteristics lead to the downregulation of iron-sulfur cluster proteins and protein toxicity stress, ultimately resulting in cell death. Cuproptosis is distinct from other types of cell death, including necrosis, apoptosis, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis. Cu induces oxidative stress damage, protein acylation, and the oligomerization of acylated TCA cycle proteins. These processes lead to the downregulation of iron-sulfur cluster proteins and protein toxicity stress, disrupting cellular Cu homeostasis, and causing cell death. Cuproptosis plays a significant role in the development and progression of various kidney diseases such as acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, diabetic nephropathy, kidney transplantation, and kidney stones. On the one hand, inducers of cuproptosis, such as disulfiram (DSF), chloroquinolone, and elesclomol facilitate cuproptosis by promoting cell oxidative stress. In contrast, inhibitors of Cu chelators, such as tetraethylenepentamine and tetrathiomolybdate, relieve these diseases by inhibiting apoptosis. To summarize, cuproptosis plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of kidney disease. This review comprehensively discusses the molecular mechanisms underlying cuproptosis and its significance in kidney diseases.
