Subsequently, the intersection targets of SIN and OA disease were collected using the Veeny platform. Then, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network map of “SIN-targets-OA” was established using String database and Cytoscape software. Additionally, the Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed through the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID). Additionally, the potential proteins of SIN against OA were validated via molecular docking technique. Finally, the experimental validation was performed in SW1353 cells induced by interleukin (IL)-1β.ResultsA total of 315 potential targets of SIN and 4300 OA-associated targets were collected from public databases, and 42 intersecting potential targets of SIN and OA disease acquired. Then, the PPI network diagram of “SIN-targets-OA” was acquired that comprised a total of 43 nodes and 82 edges. Moreover, 173 GO and 21 KEGG pathway entries were screened with a P-value <.05. Among them, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and IL-17 are the core signaling pathways. Molecular docking technique indicated strong binding energies of SIN with PPAR (−6.1 kcal/mol) and IL-17 (−6.3 kcal/mol). Lastly, SIN at the concentration of 50 μmol/L has a significant effect on IL-1β-induced SW1353 cells by the inhibition of PPAR-γ and IL-17A proteins without cytotoxicity.ConclusionThis work revealed the underlying targets and signaling pathways of SIN against OA using integrated network pharmacology molecular docking, and experimental validation. These findings provide scientific evidence for the clinical application of SIN for OA treatment.","PeriodicalId":19019,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Communications","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141778363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effect of CHS-IVa on oxidative stress and inflammation in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) under the action of hydrogen peroxide (H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>). Methods: Cell viability was detected by MTT method. The cell scratch experiment was used to test the repair ability of CHS-IVa on cells. The levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were tested using the relevant kits. The expression levels of TNF-α, NF-κB, IL-6, IL-1α, and P65 were detected by qPCR. Results: MTT results showed that CHS-IVa at 50 to 100 μg/mL could enhance the activity of IPEC-J2 cells within 24 hours. CHS-IVa at 80 and 100 μg/mL could promote damage repair and effectively inhibit the release of LDH production in IPEC-J2 cells after exposure to H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>. Additionally, it had a restorative effect on the loss of TrxR, SOD, GSH, and CAT. At the same time, the treatment of CHS-IVa significantly decreased the mRNA expression of NF-κB, IL-6, and P65 after H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> treatment.

Historically it is known for a long time as major constituent of many Primula and Dionysia exudates produced by glandular hairs in unusually large amounts, often as a farinose (mealy) deposit on aerial plant parts. The ecological function of this unique farinose deposit and its main compound flavone is still not really understood. Concerning flavone, a knowledge gap exists about its biosynthetic origin, when compared to all of the flavonoid biosynthetic routes known to date. Thus, this review addresses not only the history of this compound and its occurrence in plants and in their respective compartments, but also discusses ideas on its putative biosynthesis. Furthermore, we provide up-to-date analytical data on this compound from a natural source, rather than from chemosynthesis, in a comprehensive way.

Methods: Extraction was performed using absolute ethanol, and chemical and mineral compositions were determined using the standard methods of the Association of Official Analytical Chemists. Total phenolics and flavonoids were assessed using the Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminum chloride methods, respectively. Chemical composition was screened using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and antimicrobial activity was evaluated using a disc diffusion assay. In addition, molecular docking analysis of the main compounds was performed. Results: The samples had high ash, carbohydrate, and fiber contents. The results showed high amount of Na, K, Mg, Ca, and Fe, with the highest values for Ca. Trace elements such as Cu, Mn, and Zn were found in low amounts in the studied species. The content of total phenolics ranged from 15.54 ± 0.1 to 39.5 ± 0.2 mg gallic acid equivalent/g. For flavonoid, it ranged from 3.4 ± 0.3 to 1.5 ± 0.2 mg rutin/g. GC-MS revealed 9 major compounds, mainly fatty acids, which have been reported to have antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial results indicated a higher impact of the extracts against bacteria ( Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Proteus vulgaris) than against fungi ( Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus), and a stronger dose-dependent effect against gram-positive ( B. subtilis and S. aureus) bacteria than against gram-negative bacteria ( E. coli and P. vulgaris). Molecular docking identified 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid mono(2-ethylhexyl) ester as the highest binding compound for penicillin-binding protein 6, suggesting its potential antimicrobial activity. Conclusion: These findings suggest that these seaweed species could serve as promising sources of functional foods with antimicrobial properties, with potential applications in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical fields.","PeriodicalId":19019,"journal":{"name":"Natural Product Communications","volume":"245 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141778367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fecal microRNAs (miRNAs), gut microbes, and host metabolites were evaluated through miRNA sequencing, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and serum metabolomics analysis, respectively. Results: DME administration attenuated 2K1C-induced hypertension in rats. Additionally, DME alleviated the dysregulation of miRNA expression and gut microbiota dysbiosis in 2K1C rats. The correlation analysis confirmed the association of the differentially expressed miRNAs with gut microbes. Furthermore, non-targeted metabolomics analysis revealed different metabolic profiles in the serum of 2K1C rats compared to control rats. Interestingly, the changes in those serum metabolites were partially attenuated by DME. The metabolite enrichment analysis demonstrated that the differentially expressed metabolites were mainly involved in three metabolic pathways (Arachidonic acid metabolism, TCA cycle, and Alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism). Conclusion: DME can be suggested as an effective intervention in the prevention of hypertension through modulating the miRNAs, gut microbiota, and host metabolites.

Thus, this study aimed to analyze and compare headspace volatiles (HSVs) from rosette leaf, stem leaf, stem, and inflorescence as well as essential oil (EO) of plant aerial parts.MethodsThe chemical composition of the headspace volatiles and essential oil of a hybrid Achillea ×vandasii Velen. were analyzed by gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).ResultsThe distribution among HSVs depends on the plant organ investigated. Generally, monoterpene hydrocarbons and oxygenated monoterpenes were dominant in all headspace samples, primarily 1,8-cineole followed by α-pinene and β-pinene. Sesquiterpenoids were absent or presented in a low percentage. Unlike HSVs, the EO was abundant in sesquiterpene hydrocarbons and their oxygenated derivates.

Antimicrobial activity was determined by measuring diameters of the inhibition zone by using a disc-diffusion method with nine microbial strains from ATCC culture. Moreover, minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) as well as time-kill kinetic studies, antiadhesion, and antibiofilm formation potential were also evaluated. Antioxidant activity was evaluated through three different antioxidant assays: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH<jats:sup>●</jats:sup>), 2,2′-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS<jats:sup>●+</jats:sup>), and reducing power (RP).ResultsThe gas chromatography mass spectrometry analysis showed that the main compound in the essential oil was trans-caryophyllene (37.4%), followed by caryophyllene oxide (12.4%) and α-humulene (11.0%), while in the hydrolate it was 1,8-cineole (11.5%). Results showed that industrial hemp essential oil and hydrolate exhibited no antimicrobial activity against gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, and fungi, while gram-positive bacteria were sensitive. Therefore, in the following step, MIC was determined by microdilution method. The lowest MIC for essential oil (12.5%) was obtained for Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus, while this value doubled for Listeria monocytogenes. Conversely, the MIC for hydrolate was 100% for all gram-positive bacteria.
