One of the ways to restore it is inhibition of protein phosphotyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) and T-cell protein phosphotyrosine phosphatase (TCPTP), negative regulators of the insulin and leptin signaling. Despite progress in the development of inhibitors of these phosphatases, commercial preparations based on them have not been developed yet, and the mechanisms of action are poorly understood. The aim of the work was to study the effect of new derivatives of 4-oxo-1,4-dihydrocinnoline (PI04, PI06, PI07) on the activity of PTP1B and TCPTP, as well as to study the effect of their five-day administration (i.p., 10 mg/kg/day) to Wistar rats with diet-induced obesity on body weight and fat, metabolic and hormonal parameters, and gene expression of phosphatase and insulin and leptin receptors in the liver. It has been shown that PI04 is a mild, low selective inhibitor of both phosphatases (PTP1B, IC50=3.42(2.60-4.51) μM; TCPTP, IC50=4.16(3.49-4.95) μM), while PI06 and PI07 preferentially inhibit PTP1B (IC50=3.55 (2.63-4.78) μM) and TCPTP (IC50=1.45(1.18-1.78) μM), respectively. PI04 significantly reduced food intake, body weight and fat, attenuated hyperglycemia, normalized glucose tolerance, basal and glucose-stimulated levels of insulin and leptin, and insulin resistance index. Despite the anorexigenic effect, PI06 and PI07 were less effective, having little effect on glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity. PI04 significantly increased the expression of the PTP1B and TCPTP genes and decreased the expression of the insulin and leptin receptor genes. PI06 and PI07 had little effect on these indicators. Thus, PI04, the inhibitor of PTP1B and TCPTP phosphatases, restored metabolic and hormonal parameters in obese rats with greater efficiency than inhibitors of PTP1B (PI06) and TCPTP (PI07). This indicates the prospect of creating mixed PTP1B/TCPTP inhibitors for correction of metabolic disorders.</p>","PeriodicalId":8889,"journal":{"name":"Biomeditsinskaya khimiya","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10831925","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}

Primary human coronary (HCAEC) and internal thoracic artery endothelial cells (HITAEC) exposed to 500 ng/ml MMC (experimental group) and 0.9% NaCl (control) were used in this research. A gene expression profile was evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription PCR after 6 h exposure of endothelial cells to MMC (or 0.9% NaCl) followed by subsequent 24 h incubation in the mutagen-free cell growth media. The cytokine profile of endotheliocytes was studied by dot blotting. We found that MIF, IL-8, MCP-1, IP-10 and PDGFB were upregulated both in HCAEC and HITAEC, while MIP-1β release remained unchanged. TIMP-2 was upregulated in HCAEC but not in HITAEC. sTNF RI was expressed only in HCAEC.

The intestine is responsible not only for digestion, as it contains millions of neurons, its own immune system, and affects the emotional and cognitive processes. The relationship between the gut and the brain suggests that the processes carried out by the gut microbiota play a significant role in the regulation of brain function, and vice versa. A special role here is played by intercellular tight junctions (TJ), where the zonulin protein holds an important place. Zonulin, an unprocessed precursor of mature haptoglobin, is the only physiological modulator of intercellular TJ that can reversibly regulate the permeability of the intestinal (IB) and blood-brain (BBB) barriers in the human body. BBB disruption and altered microbiota composition are associated with many diseases, including neurological disorders and neuroinflammation. That is, there is a gut-brain axis (GBA) - a communication system through which the brain modulates the functions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and vice versa. GBA is based on neuronal, endocrine, and immunological mechanisms that are interconnected at the organismal, organ, cellular, and molecular levels.</p>","PeriodicalId":8889,"journal":{"name":"Biomeditsinskaya khimiya","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40701690","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}

Zinc, an essential trace element, is necessary for normal functioning of many body systems where it plays an important role in metabolism. Obesity is accompanied by various metabolic pathologies provoking the development of dyslipidaemia, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Many studies demonstrate changes in zinc homeostasis in obese men, but the data are conflicting, and a relationship between serum zinc and anthropometric and metabolic indicators remains controversial. In this study we have investigate the relationship between serum zinc level and body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and some metabolic parameters in Russian men. In 260 young men from the general population (n=268, median age 22 years), serum zinc, triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL and LDL), glucose and uric acid levels were determined, as well as body weight, height, waist circumference (WC), and BMI were evaluated. According to BMI, men were divided into four groups: deficient and normal body weight, overweight, obesity. According to WC men were subdivided into two groups: normal and abdominal-visceral type of obesity. The median serum zinc concentration in men of the entire studied population was 20.3 μmol/l, and in men with obesity (BMI≥30) the median serum zinc concentration was higher than in the corresponding value in men with normal weight (30.9 and 20.8 μmol/l, respectively, p<0.01). Serum levels of TG, TC and LDL in obese men were also significantly higher (p<0.01) as compared to men with normal weight. In men with abdominal-visceral obesity, the median serum zinc concentration was significantly higher in comparison with control (26.3 and 19.9 μmol/l, respectively, p<0.01).
