Chronic neuroinflammation is central to the pathology of several neurodegenerative disorders. Hence, exploring the molecular mechanism by which IMI would trigger neuroinflammation is particularly important. This study examined the neurotoxic effects of oral administration of IMI (45 mg/kg/day for 30 days) and the potential neuroprotective effect of berberine (Ber) chloride loaded nano-PEGylated liposomes (Ber-Lip) (10 mg/kg, intravenously every other day for 30 days) using laboratory rat. The histopathological changes, anti-oxidant and oxidative stress markers (GSH, SOD, and MDA), proinflammatory cytokines (IL1β and TNF-α), microglia phenotype markers (CD86 and iNOS for M1; CD163 for M2), the canonical pyroptotic pathway markers (NLRP3, caspase-1, GSDMD, and IL-18) and Alzheimer's disease markers (Neprilysin and beta amyloid [Aβ] deposits) were assessed. Oral administration of IMI resulted in apparent cerebellar histopathological alterations, oxidative stress, predominance of M1 microglia phenotype, significantly upregulated NLRP3, <i>caspase-1</i>, <i>GSDMD</i>, <i>IL-18</i> and Aβ deposits and significantly decreased Neprilysin expression. Berberine reduced the IMI-induced aberrations in the measured parameters and improved the IMI-induced histopathological and ultrastructure alterations brought on by IMI. This study highlights the IMI neurotoxic effect and its potential contribution to the development of Alzheimer's disease and displayed the neuroprotective effect of Ber-Lip.</p>","PeriodicalId":8923,"journal":{"name":"BioFactors","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141791825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CX3CL1 works through specific membrane-bound receptors (CX3CR1) found in various tissues including skeletal muscles. Studies indicate CX3CL1 induces muscles to uptake energy substrates thereby improving glucose utilization and countering diabetes. Here, we tested if the administration of purified CX3CL1 directly into mice skeletal muscles affects its histoarchitecture, mitochondrial activity, and expression of metabolic proteins. We analyzed four muscles: two upper-limb (quadriceps, hamstrings) and two lower-limb (tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius), contralateral leg muscles were taken as controls. The effects of CX3CL1 treatment on histoarchitecture, mitochondrial activity, and expression of metabolic proteins in muscles were characterized. We used histochemical staining succinate dehydrogenase (SDH)/cytochrome c oxidase (COX), myosin ATPase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) to evaluate the mitochondrial activity, fiber types, and vascularization in the muscles, respectively. Western blotting was used to evaluate the expression of proteins associated with mitochondrial metabolism (OXPHOS), glycolysis, and vascularization. Overall, this study indicates CX3CL1 primarily modulates mitochondrial metabolism and shifts substrate preference toward glucose in the skeletal muscle.

Overexpression of ErbB2 in H9c2 cardiomyoblasts induced Notch1 activation in a post-transcriptional, p38-dependent manner, while ErbB2 inhibition with the specific inhibitor, lapatinib, reduced Notch1 activation. Moreover, incubation of H9c2 cells with lapatinib resulted in stalled autophagic flux and decreased proliferation, consistent with the established cardiotoxicity of this and other ErbB2-targeting drugs. Confirming the findings in H9c2 cells, exposure of primary neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes to exogenous neuregulin-1, which engages ErbB2, stimulated proliferation, and this effect was abrogated by concomitant inhibition of the enzyme responsible for Notch1 activation. Furthermore, the hearts of transgenic mice specifically overexpressing ErbB2 in cardiomyocytes had increased levels of active Notch1 and of Notch-related genes.

Plant extracellular vesicles (PEVs) are a novel area of research that has gained attention due to their potential implications in biomolecule transport and therapeutic applications. PEVs are lipid bilayer-enclosed structures that contain a diverse cargo of biomolecules such as proteins and lipids. Moreover, it is known that PEVs have a noticeable therapeutic potential for various conditions such as inflammation and oxidative stress. However, there are critical problems such as removing the endosomes and plant-derived biomolecules that decrease the standardization and therapeutic efficacy of PEVs. In our study, the aim was to characterize plant cell suspension-derived extracellular vesicles (PCSEVs) obtained from two different plant cell suspension cultures: <i>Stevia rebaudiana</i> and <i>Vaccaria hispanica</i>. These vesicles were isolated using ultrafiltration and characterized with nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The molecular composition of PCSEVs was profiled and the cellular uptake assay was performed. Our results demonstrated that PCSEVs have a spherical shape, less than 200 nm. In the fatty acid analysis, the primary components in PCSEVs were palmitic acid, linoleic acid, and cis-vaccenic acid. The protein content of <i>Stevia rebaudiana</i>-derived EVs (SDEVs) was largely associated with proteins involved in extracellular structures and functions. Conversely, <i>Vaccaria hispanica</i>-derived EVs (HDEVs) displayed a higher presence of cytosolic proteins.

As rate-limiting steps for virus entry, modulation of ACE2 and/or TMPRSS2 may decrease SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and COVID-19 severity. In silico modeling suggested the natural bioactive flavonoid quercetin can bind to ACE2 and a recent randomized clinical trial demonstrated that oral supplementation with quercetin increased COVID-19 recovery. A range of cultured human cells were assessed for co-expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2. Immortalized Calu-3 lung cells, cultured and matured at an air–liquid interface (Calu-3-ALIs), were established as the most appropriate. Primary bronchial epithelial cells (PBECs) were obtained from healthy adult males (<i>N</i> = 6) and cultured under submerged conditions to corroborate the outcomes. Upon maturation or reaching 80% confluence, respectively, the Calu-3-ALIs and PBECs were treated with quercetin, and mRNA and protein expression were assessed by droplet digital PCR and ELISA, respectively. SARS-CoV-2 infectivity, and the effects of pre- and co-treatment with quercetin, was assessed by median tissue culture infectious dose assay. Quercetin dose-dependently decreased ACE2 and TMPRSS2 mRNA and protein in both Calu-3-ALIs and PBECs after 4 h, while TMPRSS2 remained suppressed in response to prolonged treatment with lower doses (twice daily for 3 days). Quercetin also acutely decreased ADAM17 mRNA, but not ACE, in Calu-3-ALIs, and this warrants further investigation. Calu-3-ALIs, but not PBECs, were successfully infected with SARS-CoV-2; however, quercetin had no antiviral effect, neither directly nor indirectly through downregulation of ACE2 and TMPRSS2. Calu-3-ALIs were reaffirmed to be an optimal cell model for research into the regulation of ACE2 and TMPRSS2, without the need for prior genetic modification, and will prove valuable in future coronavirus and respiratory infectious disease work.

ER stress also leads to a block in autophagy amplifying neuropathic pain. 6-Bromoindirubin-3′-oxime (6-BIO) is an inhibitor of GSK-3β which suppresses mTOR activity thereby increasing autophagy. Tunicamycin (TM)-mediated ER stress and diabetic rat models were used to elucidate the role of ER stress and autophagy in mitigation of neuropathic pain by 6-BIO. Pain was assessed by behavioral studies in ER stressed/diabetic rats having neuropathy. Western blotting, RT-PCR, and fluorescence microscopy were used to assess the level of autophagy and ER stress after TM and 6-BIO treatment in SH-SY5Y neurons. Intraplantar injection of TM in rats led to peripheral neuropathy which was reduced upon 6-BIO injection. 6-BIO also reduced pain in animals exhibiting diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Modulation in the markers of autophagy (p-mTOR, LC-3, and SQSTM1/p62) shows that 6-BIO induces autophagolysosome formation post TM treatment.
