Jayasena","doi":"10.3233/NHA-200101","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3233/NHA-200101","url":null,"abstract":"BACKGROUND: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease and a major source of morbidity and mortality. Currently, no therapy nor drug can cure or modify AD progression, but recent studies suggest that nutritional compounds in certain foods can delay or prevent the onset of AD. Diets with high antioxidants is one of the examples which is believed to influence AD pathogenesis through direct effect on amyloid beta levels. Compared to other fruits and vegetables, goji berry (GB) has high levels of polyphenolic substances with antioxidant activities which have shown some positive effects on cognitive function while its mechanism on neuroprotection is yet to be explored. We investigated whether GB would decrease the quantity of amyloid beta in cell culture model of AD. OBJECTIVE: To assess the protective effects of GB against amyloid beta toxicity in M17 cells using different techniques. METHODS: Goji berry powder (GBP) at different concentrations was treated with 20 μM amyloid beta-induced neuronal cells. MTS assay (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxy-phenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium), bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay, Western blot analysis, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were performed to identify how GB affected amyloid beta. RESULTS: MTS assay indicated that GBP significantly increased cell viability up to 105% when GBP was at 1.2 μg/ mL. Western blot showed significant reduction of amyloid beta up to 20% in cells treated with 1.5 μg/ mL GBP. GBP at 1.5 μg/ mL was the most effective concentration with 17% reduction of amyloid beta in amyloid beta-induced neuronal cells compared to control (amyloid beta only) based on ELISA results. AFM images further confirmed increasing GBP concentration led to decreased aggregation of amyloid beta. CONCLUSION: GB can be a promising anti-aging agent and warrants further investigating due to its effect on reduction of amyloid beta toxicity.","PeriodicalId":37419,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and Healthy Aging","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3233/NHA-200101","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41569928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In previous studies we have identified C. nervosum fruit extracts to have anti-aging and anti-stress properties in C.elegans OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the neuroprotective properties of C. nervosum seed extracts and investigate the mechanisms behind their neuroprotective properties. METHODS: PC-12 cells were differentiated using NGF and treated with amyloid-β (Aβ)  (25–35)  creating a model of neurodegeneration, in which C. nervosum seed extracts were tested for neuroprotective properties. Cell viability was measured after 24 hours of using the MTT assay. We also measured the lifespan and “health span” of various C.elegans mutants and the wild type. RESULTS: C. nervosum seed extract protects PC12 cells from Aβ  (25–35)  toxicity, as well as potentiating NGF induced neurite outgrowth in the same cell line potentially under the control of the sigma-1 receptor. C. nervosum seed extracts have anti-aging properties in C. elegans, causing a significant increase in lifespan of Aβ expressing C. elegans and wild type worms. This appears to be regulated by SKN-1/NRF-2, possibly via the sigma-1 receptor. The DAF-16 pathway is also involved in the lifespan extension of C. elegans. CONCLUSIONS: C. nervousum has been often used as a functional food. We have shown its neuroprotective properties which are sensitive to sigma-1 receptor antagonism in PC12 cells, and involve the SKN-1/NRF-2 and DAF-16 pathway in C.elegans. Further research into the active compounds may lead to future drugs for preventing or treating neurodegenerative disease.","PeriodicalId":37419,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and Healthy Aging","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3233/NHA-200108","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45177902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, because much of this work has been published in the ecology and evolutionary biology literature, it may not be known to the biomedical research community. In this review, we provide an overview of <i>Brachionus</i> rotifers as a model to investigate nutritional and metabolic regulators of aging, with a focus on recent studies of dietary and metabolic pathway manipulation. Rotifers are microscopic, aquatic invertebrates with many advantages as a system for studying aging, including a two-week lifespan, easy laboratory culture, direct development without a larval stage, sexual and asexual reproduction, easy delivery of pharmaceuticals in liquid culture, and transparency allowing imaging of cellular morphology and processes. Rotifers have greater gene homology with humans than do established invertebrate models for aging, and thus rotifers may be used to investigate novel genetic mechanisms relevant to human lifespan and healthspan. The research on caloric restriction; dietary, pharmaceutical, and genetic interventions; and transcriptomics of aging using rotifers provide insights into the metabolic regulators of lifespan and health and suggest future directions for aging research. Capitalizing on the unique biology of <i>Brachionus</i> rotifers, referencing the vast existing literature about the influence of diet and drugs on rotifer lifespan and health, continuing the development of genetic tools for rotifers, and growing the rotifer research community will lead to new discoveries a better understanding of the biology of aging.</p>","PeriodicalId":37419,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and Healthy Aging","volume":"6 1","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3233/NHA-200104","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25467727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Custom CRM(P) diets supplemented with 250 mg/kg quercetin (Q) were obtained. Thirty CD2F1 mice were equally randomized to non-tumor-bearing (NTB), C26 tumor-bearing (TB), TB + Q. All groups started their allocated diet and underwent hindlimb micro-CT.

Almost all known animal species demonstrate sleep or sleep like states. Despite extensive study, the mechanistic aspects of sleep need are not very well characterized. Sleep appears to be needed to generate resources that are utilized during the active stage/wakefulness as well as clearance of waste products that accumulate during wakefulness. From a metabolic perspective, this means sleep is crucial for anabolic activities. Decrease in anabolism and build-up of harmful catabolic waste products is also a hallmark of aging processes. Through this lens, sleep and aging processes are remarkably parallel- for example behavioral studies demonstrate an interaction between sleep and aging. Changes in sleep behavior affect neurocognitive phenotypes important in aging such as learning and memory, although the underlying connections are largely unknown. Here we draw inspiration from the similar metabolic effects of sleep and aging and posit that large scale metabolic phenotyping, commonly known as metabolomics, can shed light to interleaving effects of sleep, aging and progression of diseases related to aging. In this review, data from recent sleep and aging literature using metabolomics as principal molecular phenotyping methods is collated and compared. The present data suggests that metabolic effects of aging and sleep also demonstrate similarities, particularly in lipid metabolism and amino acid metabolism.
