Organosulfur Compounds, S-Allyl-L-Cysteine and S-Ethyl-L-Cysteine, Target PCSK-9/LDL-R-Axis to Ameliorate Cardiovascular, Hepatic, and Metabolic Changes in High Carbohydrate and High Fat Diet-Induced Metabolic Syndrome in Rats.
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an ever-evolving set of diseases that poses a serious health risk in many countries worldwide. Existing evidence illustrates that individuals with MetS have a 30%-40% higher chance of acquiring type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), cardiovascular disease (CVD), or both. This study was undertaken to uncover the regulatory role of natural organosulfur compounds (OSCs), S-allyl-L-cysteine (SAC), and S-ethyl-L-cysteine (SEC), in targeting high carbohydrate high fat (HCHF)-diet-induced MetS-associated risk management. Our findings suggested that SAC and SEC ameliorated HCHF-diet-induced diabetic profiles, plasma lipid and lipoprotein level, liver function, oxidative-stress, inflammatory cytokines, and chemokines including monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), lipid peroxidation, plasma proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PCSK-9), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Moreover, the assessment of the hepatic mRNA expression of the key genes involved in cholesterol homeostasis depicted that SAC and SEC downregulated the PCSK-9 mRNA expression via targeting the expression of HNF-1α, a transcriptional activator of PCSK-9. On the other hand, the LDL-receptor (LDL-R) expression was upregulated through the activation of its transcriptional regulator sterol regulatory element binding protein-2 (SREBP-2). In addition, the activity and the mRNA expression of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme-A reductases (HMG-R) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) were also improved by the treatment of SAC and SEC. We concluded that SAC and SEC can protect against MetS via improving the lipid and lipoprotein content, glycemic indices, hepatic function, targeting the inflammatory cascades, and oxidative imbalance, regulation of the mRNA expression of PCSK-9, LDL-R, SREBP-2, HNF-1α, PPARs, and inflammatory biomarkers.
期刊介绍:
Phytotherapy Research is an internationally recognized pharmacological journal that serves as a trailblazing resource for biochemists, pharmacologists, and toxicologists. We strive to disseminate groundbreaking research on medicinal plants, pushing the boundaries of knowledge and understanding in this field.
Our primary focus areas encompass pharmacology, toxicology, and the clinical applications of herbs and natural products in medicine. We actively encourage submissions on the effects of commonly consumed food ingredients and standardized plant extracts. We welcome a range of contributions including original research papers, review articles, and letters.
By providing a platform for the latest developments and discoveries in phytotherapy, we aim to support the advancement of scientific knowledge and contribute to the improvement of modern medicine.
