The present study investigated whether the antioxidant properties of morin has beneficial effects on structural brain damage, neuronal apoptosis and dysregulation of TrkB/Akt signaling associated with diabetes. Adult male Sprague Dawley rats were induced diabetes by an intraperitoneal injection of 40 mg/kg of streptozotocin and kept untreated for 30 days to induce DE. Cognitive performance was assessed using the Morris water maze test followed by morin and metformin administration at the doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg, respectively, for 60 days. After 60 days of treatment, animals were subjected to the behavioral test and sacrificed to collect blood and brain and checked biochemical parameters. The treatment with morin could significantly reduce the escape latency time in Morris water maze test, blood glucose level, HbA1c, toxicity markers, lipid peroxidation products and protein carbonyl content, downregulated the expression of Bax, Caspase - 3 and Cytochrome C and upregulated Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, Akt, BDNF and TrkB expressions. Besides, enhanced the activities of antioxidant enzymes, and plasma insulin level. Histomorphological observations also confirmed the protective effect of morin on neuronal degeneration.

Exposure of MCP is associated with altered molecular physiology at sub-cellular levels. This study investigated the efficacy of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) against MCP exposure mediated mitochondrial dysfunctions in hepatic tissue of rats. Methods: Male Wistar rats were given NAC (200 mg/kg b.wt), MCP (0.9 mg/kg b.wt) and NAC together with MCP, intragastrically for 28 consecutive days. Mitochondrial complexes activities were evaluated using biochemical analysis. mRNA expression of mitochondrial complexes subunits, PGC-1α and its downstream regulators were analyzed using polymerase chain reaction. Results: Exposure of MCP (0.9 mg/kg b.wt, intragastrically, 28 d) decreased mitochondrial complexes activities and gene expression of complexes subunits. The expression of PGC-1α, NRF-1, NRF-2, and Tfam was also reduced significantly. The administration of NAC (200 mg/kg b.wt, intragastrically, 28 d) significantly increased mitochondrial complexes activities and gene expression of complexes subunits. Additionally, NAC also maintained mitochondrial functions, and enhanced the gene expression of PGC-1α and its downstream regulators. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that NAC prevents hepatic mitochondrial dysfunctions and maintains PGC-1α signaling. In conclusion, NAC might be speculated as a therapeutic agent for mitochondrial dysfunctions following toxic exposures.","PeriodicalId":49117,"journal":{"name":"Toxicology Mechanisms and Methods","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47632351","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}

Like in the same way silver nanoparticles are used for different beneficial actions like antimicrobial- antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, water treatment, cosmetics, and in the textiles industry. As silver nanoparticles have shown wide application by different mechanisms against various pathophyisiological conditions. To maintain safety under their use, the study of the toxicity of silver nanoparticles has become more important. Health agencies like WHO, NIOSH, EPA, EFSA & EU have issued guidelines for unrisky exposure limit of silver nanopartricles in drinking water, food and breathing. The main purpose of this article is to summarize genotoxicity, cytotoxicity, neurotoxicity, reproductive toxicity of silver nanoparticles in both in vitro and in vivo studies focused on mechanism and methods of detection. The main mechanism of silver nanoparticles toxicity involves disruption of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, which results in the generation of ROS and the stoppage of ATP synthesis which further leads to a cascade of toxic events. ROS production measured by the technique like flow cytometry using DCFHDA dye and other method includes a confocal microscope, lipid peroxidation, etc. Different assay techniques used for evaluation of different kind of toxicities such as the comet assay, MTT assay, and histological assay, are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":49117,"journal":{"name":"Toxicology Mechanisms and Methods","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47891747","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}

Methods Raw data from GSE153959 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. DEGs of the DQ vs. control (CON) and PQ vs. CON comparison groups were identified using R, and DEGs shared by the two groups were identified using TBtools. Subsequently, the shared DEGs were searched in the Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases, using the Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery. A protein–protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed, and hub genes were identified using the cytoHubba plug-in in Cytoscape software. Finally, circos and contrast plots showing the DEGs shared between mouse and human chromosomes were constructed using TBtools. Results Thirty-one DEGs shared by the DQ and PQ groups were identified. Enriched biological process terms included positive regulation of cell proliferation and translation. Enriched cellular component terms included extracellular region, intracellular membrane-bounded organelle and mitochondrion. Enriched molecular function terms included transcription factor activity and sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding. Enriched KEGG pathways included the interleukin-17 signaling pathway, tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway, and human T-cell leukemia virus 1 infection. The top 10 hub genes in the PPI network were prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (Ptgs2), chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 2 (Cxcl2), colony-stimulating factor 2 (granulocyte-macrophage) (Csf2), matrix metallopeptidase 13 (Mmp13), amphiregulin (Areg), plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor (Plaur), fos-like antigen 1 (Fosl1), epiregulin (Ereg), activating transcription factor 3 (Atf3), and transferrin receptor (Tfrc).

DTCs – dimethyldithiocarbamates, ethylenebisditiocarbamates, propylenebisditiocarbamates – are organosulfur compounds that form complexes due to the presence of different chemical elements, which bind strongly and inhibit enzymes that are essential to the functioning of the organism, causing a serious proven adverse effect on biological systems, such as alteration of thyroid hormones, teratogenesis and neurotoxicity. It is still evident, as shown by world data, that the growing consumption of fungicides has increasingly exposed the population in general and, in particular, workers who deal with these substances. There is a scarcity of studies in the literature discussing the toxicological and analytical aspects that are important for understanding the real effects of DTCs and monitoring human exposure to them. Therefore, the aim of this work was to expose, in a comprehensive way and through a narrative review, gaps in research related to the fungicides of the DTCs class, their metabolites, as well as the toxicological and analytical aspects involved.

Previous studies indicate that diuron and/or its metabolites are toxic to the bladder urothelium of the Wistar rats where, under certain conditions of exposure, they may induce successively urothelial cell degeneration, necrosis, hyperplasia and eventually tumors. The hypothesis was raised that the molecular initiating event (MIE) of this Adverse Outcome Pathway is the mitochondrial toxicity of those compounds. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate in vitro the metabolic alterations resulting from urothelial mitochondria isolated from male Wistar rats exposure to diuron, DCPMU and DCA at 10 and 100 µM. A non-targeted metabolomic analysis using mass spectrometry showed discriminative clustering among groups and alterations in the intensity abundance of membrane-associated molecules phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylserine, in addition to methylhexanoyl-CoA and, particularly for diuron 100 µM, dehydro-L-gulonate, all of them involved in critical mitochondrial metabolism.
