Many venoms have been shown to possess thrombolytic activity. However, it remains unclear if actions on other clot-stabilizing proteins beyond fibrin chains contribute significantly to venom-induced thrombolysis because the clot-wide targets of venom proteases and the mechanisms responsible for thrombolysis are not well understood. Here, we utilize a high-throughput time-based thrombolysis assay in combination with untargeted peptidomics to provide comprehensive insight into the effects of venom from six snake species on blood clot degradation. We compare thrombolytic profiles across venoms with variable levels of proteases and generate venom-specific fingerprints of cleavage specificity. We also compare the specific effects of venoms that possess a range of thrombolytic activity on fibrin subunits and other clot-bound proteins involved in clot structure. Venoms with higher thrombolytic activity demonstrated an enhanced ability to target multiple sites across fibrin chains critical to clot stability and structure, as well as clot-stabilizing proteins including fibronectin and vitronectin. Collectively, this study significantly expands our understanding of the thrombolytic and fibrinolytic effects of snake venom by determining the full suite of clot-specific venom targets that are involved in clot formation and stability.","PeriodicalId":501518,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Pharmacology and Toxicology","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142184255","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}

The registrants may propose adaptations, and ECHA evaluates the reasoning and issues a written decision. Read-across is a common adaptation type, yet it is widely assumed that ECHA often does not agree that the justifications are adequate to waive standard testing requirements. From 2008 to August 2023, a total of 2,630 Testing Proposals were submitted to ECHA; of these, 1,538 had published decisions that were systematically evaluated in this study. Each document was manually reviewed, and information extracted for further analyses. Read-across hypotheses were standardized into 17 assessment elements (AEs); each submission was classified as to the AEs relied upon by the registrants and by ECHA. Data was analyzed for patterns and associations. Testing Proposal Evaluations (TPEs) with adaptations comprised 23% (353) of the total; analogue (168) or group (136) read-across adaptations were most common. Of 304 read-across-containing TPEs, 49% were accepted; the odds of acceptance were significantly greater for group read-across submissions. The data was analyzed by Annex (i.e., tonnage), test guideline study, read-across hypothesis AEs, as well as target and source substance types and their structural similarity. While most ECHA decisions with both positive and negative decisions on whether the proposed read-across was adequate were context-specific, a number of significant associations were identified that influence the odds of acceptance. Overall, this analysis provides an unbiased overview of 15 years of experience with testing proposal-specific read-across adaptations by both registrants and ECHA. These data will inform future submissions as they identify most critical AEs to increase the odds of read-across acceptance.","PeriodicalId":501518,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Pharmacology and Toxicology","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142184257","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}

It is now well-established that microplastics (>1 mm in size) can enter the human body through ingestion, inhalation, dermal contact and also maternal-fetal transmission. Alarming was the recent findings of microplastics within the human term placenta. Among the degradation by-products of microplastics, Bisphenol A (BPA) has emerged as a hazardous chemical, with potential toxicity at multisystemic level, particularly on the earliest stages of human development. Based on these findings, our study focuses on assessing the impact of BPA on properties and functions of mesenchymal stromal cells isolated from the amniotic membrane (hAMSC) of the human term placenta. The amniotic membrane surrounds the fetus, playing a fundamental protective role toward toxic chemicals and pollutants that the mother may encounter. Our research revealed how exposure to increasing concentrations of BPA compromise mitochondrial functionality in hAMSC, resulting in enhanced production of reactive oxygen species at mitochondrial level (mtROS). This, in turn, leads to the stabilization of p53, which triggers an increased expression of p21 and p27 encoding genes and an imbalance in the genetic expression of Bax and Bcl-2. Additionally, we observed upregulated expression of cytokines and chemokines associated with the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). The increased oxidative stress, which plays a central role in BPA-mediated toxicity, can trigger the activation of the senescence pathways, or culminate in cell death, due to the overwhelming stress conditions. Therefore, our results provide novel insights into the mechanism of action of BPA and elucidates its impact on the functionality of hAMSC. This underscores the pressing need to reconsider the use of BPA as a plastic additive, mitigating the potential adverse effects on babies.","PeriodicalId":501518,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Pharmacology and Toxicology","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142184335","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}

NRH treatment also mobilized fat deposition, reduced circulating lipid, and improved white adipose function. Significant elevation in multi-tissue NAD+ levels and sirtuin (SIRT) activities, especially SIRT3, mediated these metabolic improvements. Inhibiting adenosine kinase (ADK), a newly recognized enzyme in the NRH-induced NAD+ synthesis pathway, blocked NRH effect in improving glucose and lipid metabolism.

However, studies have shown that CFTR modulators like ivacaftor, a component of ETI, has numerous effects on CF cells beyond improved CFTR channel function. Because little is known about the effect of ETI on CF AEC gene expression we exposed primary human AEC to ETI for 48 hours and interrogated the transcriptome by RNA-seq and qPCR. ETI increased defensin gene expression (DEFB1) an observation consistent with reports of decreased bacterial burden in the lungs of people with CF (pwCF).

Collectively, these findings suggest that the clinical observation that ETI reduces lung infections in pwCF is related in part to drug induced increases in DEFB1, and that ETI may reduce lung damage by reducing MMP10 and MMP12 gene expression, which is predicted to reduce matrix metalloprotease activity.

The study utilized data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD), including patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus enrolled between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2016.
