The increasing threat to European forests from the invasive foliar pine pathogen, Lecanosticta acicola. FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT 2023; 536:120847. [PMID: 37193248 PMCID: PMC10165473 DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2023.120847] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2022] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 05/18/2023]
Abstract
European forests are threatened by increasing numbers of invasive pests and pathogens. Over the past century, Lecanosticta acicola, a foliar pathogen predominantly of Pinus spp., has expanded its range globally, and is increasing in impact. Lecanosticta acicola causes brown spot needle blight, resulting in premature defoliation, reduced growth, and mortality in some hosts. Originating from southern regions of North American, it devastated forests in the USA's southern states in the early twentieth century, and in 1942 was discovered in Spain. Derived from Euphresco project 'Brownspotrisk,' this study aimed to establish the current distribution of Lecanosticta species, and assess the risks of L. acicola to European forests. Pathogen reports from the literature, and new/ unpublished survey data were combined into an open-access geo-database (http://www.portalofforestpathology.com), and used to visualise the pathogen's range, infer its climatic tolerance, and update its host range. Lecanosticta species have now been recorded in 44 countries, mostly in the northern hemisphere. The type species, L. acicola, has increased its range in recent years, and is present in 24 out of the 26 European countries where data were available. Other species of Lecanosticta are largely restricted to Mexico and Central America, and recently Colombia. The geo-database records demonstrate that L. acicola tolerates a wide range of climates across the northern hemisphere, and indicate its potential to colonise Pinus spp. forests across large swathes of the Europe. Preliminary analyses suggest L. acicola could affect 62% of global Pinus species area by the end of this century, under climate change predictions. Although its host range appears slightly narrower than the similar Dothistroma species, Lecanosticta species were recorded on 70 host taxa, mostly Pinus spp., but including, Cedrus and Picea spp. Twenty-three, including species of critical ecological, environmental and economic significance in Europe, are highly susceptible to L. acicola, suffering heavy defoliation and sometimes mortality. Variation in apparent susceptibility between reports could reflect variation between regions in the hosts' genetic make-up, but could also reflect the significant variation in L. acicola populations and lineages found across Europe. This study served to highlight significant gaps in our understanding of the pathogen's behaviour. Lecanosticta acicola has recently been downgraded from an A1 quarantine pest to a regulated non quarantine pathogen, and is now widely distributed across Europe. With a need to consider disease management, this study also explored global BSNB strategies, and used Case Studies to summarise the tactics employed to date in Europe.

Abstract
Aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN) is a progressive tubulointerstitial nephritis caused by the intake of aristolochic acids (AA) contained in Chinese herbal remedies or contaminated food. AAN is characterized by tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis, characterizing advanced kidney disease. It is established that sustained or recurrent acute kidney injury (AKI) episodes contribute to the progression of CKD. Therefore, the study of underlying mechanisms of AA-induced nephrotoxicity could be useful in understanding the complex AKI-to-CKD transition. We developed a translational approach of AKI-to-CKD transition by reproducing human AAN in rodent models. Indeed, in such models, an early phase of acute tubular necrosis was rapidly followed by a massive interstitial recruitment of activated monocytes/macrophages followed by cytotoxic T lymphocytes, resulting in a transient AKI episode. A later chronic phase was then observed with progressive tubular atrophy related to dedifferentiation and necrosis of tubular epithelial cells. The accumulation of vimentin and αSMA-positive cells expressing TGFβ in interstitial areas suggested an increase in resident fibroblasts and their activation into myofibroblasts resulting in collagen deposition and CKD. In addition, we identified 4 major actors in the AKI-to-CKD transition: (1) the tubular epithelial cells, (2) the endothelial cells of the interstitial capillary network, (3) the inflammatory infiltrate, and (4) the myofibroblasts. This review provides the most comprehensive and informative data we were able to collect and examines the pending questions.

Abstract
Aristolochic acids (AAs) are powerful nephrotoxins that cause severe tubulointerstitial fibrosis. The biopsy-proven peritubular capillary rarefaction may worsen the progression of renal lesions via tissue hypoxia. As we previously observed the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by cultured endothelial cells exposed to AA, we here investigated in vitro AA-induced metabolic changes by 1H-NMR spectroscopy on intracellular medium and cell extracts. We also tested the effects of nebivolol (NEB), a β-blocker agent exhibiting antioxidant properties. After 24 h of AA exposure, significantly reduced cell viability and intracellular ROS overproduction were observed in EAhy926 cells; both effects were counteracted by NEB pretreatment. After 48 h of exposure to AA, the most prominent metabolite changes were significant decreases in arginine, glutamate, glutamine and glutathione levels, along with a significant increase in the aspartate, glycerophosphocholine and UDP-N-acetylglucosamine contents. NEB pretreatment slightly inhibited the changes in glutathione and glycerophosphocholine. In the supernatants from exposed cells, a decrease in lactate and glutamate levels, together with an increase in glucose concentration, was found. The AA-induced reduction in glutamate was significantly inhibited by NEB. These findings confirm the involvement of oxidative stress in AA toxicity for endothelial cells and the potential benefit of NEB in preventing endothelial injury.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and Aims
Cisplatin is currently used as a first-line cancer treatment, such as testicular, ovarian or pulmonary cancers. Their nephrotoxicity remains a real problem. Acute kidney injury induced by cisplatin is located on proximal tubular cells, causing necrosis and possibly subsequent interstitial fibrosis and chronic dysfunction. These severe side effects can lead to a cessation of the patient’s treatment. Currently, there is no effective prophylactic action to reduce cisplatin nephrotoxicity, beside hyperhydration of the patient [1].
The aim of the present work is therefore to identify new prophylactic therapy. For this, natural products can be studied, in this case, the interest of potential new medicinal mushrooms extracts. Among 13 mushroom extracts, the methanolic extracts of Ganoderma parvigibbosum Welti & Courtecuisse, Ganoderma tuberculosum Murrill and their association were selected to study their effects on human proximal tubular cells (HK-2) intoxicated with cisplatin.
Method
HK-2 cells are grown in 75cm² sterile flasks using DMEM low glucose (1mg/mL), supplemented with FBS (10%), L-Glutamin and a mix of Penicillin/Streptomycin. Dried mushrooms were grounded and extracted 3 times by methanol, evaporated extracts are stored at -20°C. A viability assay allowed to determine the work concentration of extracts range have been done. After that, tests were performed after a pretreatment of 1h with the extracts before adding cisplatin at a concentration of 20 µM. Viability assays (CCK-8) and antioxidant activity (DPPH) were done in 96-well. The intracellular concentration of β-catenin and calcium, Caspase-3, p53, cytochrome C, IL-6, NFκB, the membranal expression of KIM-1 and finally the ROS production (H2DCFDA) were studied by flow cytometry.
Results
Tests have shown that methanolic extracts of G. parvigibbosum and G. tuberculosum (10 µg/mL) and their association (5 + 5 µg/mL) prevented the loss of viability after a 24h incubation. They also have prevented the increase of cytochrome C and p53 after 24h. G. parvigibbosum and the association of the two mushrooms extracts have also prevented the increase of caspase-3 and intracellular β-catenin. Finally, G. parvigibbosum was the only to prevent the ROS overproduction. None of them showed a scavenger activity, nor a prevention in the increase of IL-6 and NFκB or the membrane expression of KIM-1.
Conclusion
Ganoderma parvigibbosum appears to be therefore more beneficial than Ganoderma tuberculosum and the association of the two mushrooms extracts by acting also on the ROS overproduction. In conclusion, in this study, the extracts have shown a significant activity on the prevention of the pro-apoptosis pathway rather than a pro-inflammatory prevention. Further investigation will be performed to identify the precise activity and chemical content of these extracts.

Abstract
Ash dieback is caused by an invasive pathogen Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, which emerged in Europe in the 1990s and jeopardizes the management of ash stands. Although the biological cycle of the pathogen is well understood, its dispersal patterns via airborne spores remain poorly described. We investigated the seasonal and spatial patterns of dispersal in France using both a passive spore-trapping method coupled with a real-time PCR assay and reports of ash dieback based on symptom observations. Spores detection varies from year to year with a detection ability of 30-47% depending on meteorological conditions, which affect both production of inoculum and efficiency of the trapping. Nevertheless, our results are consistent and we showed that the sporulation peak occurred from June to August and that spores were detected up to 50-100 km ahead of the disease front, proving the presence of the pathogen before any observation of symptoms. The spore dispersal gradient was steep, most of inoculum remaining within 50 m of infected ashes. Two dispersal kernels were fitted using Bayesian methods to estimate the mean dispersal distance of H. fraxineus from inoculum sources. The estimated mean distances of dispersal, either local or regional scale, were 1.4 km and 2.6 km, respectively, the best fitting kernel being the inverse power-law. This information may help to design disease management strategies.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE The world prevalence of kidney stones is increasing and plants are frequently used to treat urolithiasis. Pistacia lentiscus L, a plant which freely grows around the Mediterranean basin areas, is widely used for various pathologies. P. lentiscus has an important impact as it has economical value on top of its pharmacological interest. Decoctions of its aerial parts and/or resin are used to treat kidney stones. AIM OF THE STUDY To in vitro assess the potential nephroprotective effect of Pistacia lentiscus ethanolic fruit extract (PLEF) on proximal tubular cells in response to the adhesion of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystals. MATERIALS AND METHODS Human Kidney [HK]-2 cells were incubated with and without COM in the presence or absence of PLEF. Cell viability was measured by the resazurin assay. The expression of E-cadherin was analyzed by PCR. The extracellular production of H2O2 was measured by Amplex® Red H2O2 Assay. The numbers of detached or non-adherent COM crystals in the presence of PLEF were microscopically captured and counted using ImageJ software. The interaction of PLEF with COM and the effect of PLEF on crystal size were analyzed by flow cytometry. The spectrophotometric measurement of turbidity was performed for assessing the COM concentration. RESULTS PLEF incubated with COM was able to increase the cell viability. The decrease of E-cadherin expression after incubation with COM was counteracted by PLEF. Overproduction of H2O2 induced by COM was also inhibited by PLEF. Observations using flow cytometry showed that interactions between PLEF and the COM crystals occurred. PLEF was also effective in reducing the particles size and in lowering COM concentration. CONCLUSION Our data show that COM tubulotoxicity can be significantly reversed by PLEF -at least in part- via an inhibition of COM crystals adhesion onto the apical membrane. This early beneficial effect of PLEF needs to be further investigated as a useful strategy in nephrolithiasis prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ)+ perivascular cell activation becomes increasingly recognized as a main source of scar-associated kidney myofibroblasts and recently emerged as a new cellular therapeutic target. AIMS In this regard, we first confirmed the presence of PDGFRβ+ perivascular cells in a human case of end-stage aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN) and thereafter we focused on the early fibrosis events of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) inhibition in a rat model of AAN. MATERIALS AND METHODS Neutralizing anti-TGFβ antibody (1D11) and its control isotype (13C4) were administered (5 mg/kg, i.p.) at Days -1, 0, 2 and 4; AA (15 mg/kg, sc) was injected daily. RESULTS At Day 5, 1D11 significantly suppressed p-Smad2/3 signaling pathway improving renal function impairment, reduced the score of acute tubular necrosis, peritubular capillaritis, interstitial inflammation and neoangiogenesis. 1D11 markedly decreased interstitial edema, disruption of tubular basement membrane loss of brush border, cytoplasmic edema and organelle ultrastructure alterations (mitochondrial disruption and endoplasmic reticulum edema) in proximal tubular epithelial cells. Moreover, 1D11 significantly inhibited p-PERK activation and attenuated dysregulation of unfolded protein response (UPR) pathways, endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrial proteostasis in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSIONS The early inhibition of p-Smad2/3 signaling pathway improved acute renal function impairment, partially prevented epithelial-endothelial axis activation by maintaining PTEC proteostasis and reduced early PDGFRβ+ pericytes-derived myofibroblasts accumulation.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Although acknowledged as toxic herbs, Aristolochia species are still widely used worldwide. The aristolochic acids (AA) they contain can induce the so-called "aristolochic acid nephropathy", leading to renal fibrosis and upper urinary tract cancer. Traditional Moroccan medicine still often uses Aristolochia species under the vernacular name of Bereztem for the treatment of numerous ailments, notably cancer, diabetes or digestive tract disorders. As the botanical identity and renal toxicity of used species remain unexplored, the safety of patients may be threatened. MATERIAL AND METHODS Ethnopharmacological data were collected from herbalists from the provinces of Oujda and Berkane, located in North-Eastern Morocco. Samples of Bereztem were collected at herbalist shops and checked for their content in AA using TLC and LC-MS methods. The toxicity of crude methanolic extracts of each herb was assessed on a HK-2 cell-based in vitro model by measurement of the cell survival to evaluate cytotoxicity and by assessment of renal-specific toxicity via (i) the evaluation of genes (E-cadherin and α-smooth muscle actin) expression by RT-qPCR; (ii) the quantities of β-catenin and vimentin by immunofluorescence microscopy; (iii) the secretion of fibronectin; and (iv) the excretion of interleukin-6. RESULTS The survey indicated that, among 42 herbalists visited, 33 were retailers of Bereztem, which was generally sold as a cancer treatment. Botanical investigations revealed that Aristolochia longa was frequently substituted by Bryonia dioica, which was associated with a higher cytotoxicity. Parameters specific to renal toxicity were also found to be enhanced, as compared to Aristolochia baetica and A. longa: down-regulation of β-catenin and E-cadherin and up-regulation of vimentin and α-smooth muscle actin, and secretion of fibronectin and interleukin-6. CONCLUSION In accordance with the Moroccan regulations, the use of so-called Aristolochia species should be discontinued. On one hand, the correctly identified aristolochia contain nephrotoxic aristolochic acids; on the other hand, aristolochia are massively substituted in North-Eastern Morocco and adulterated by a well-known toxic herb, B. dioica. Our data indicate that the bryony renal toxicity may be deleterious in shorter time periods than aristolochia. Reinforced on-site controls are needed to remind herbalists and harvesters that these herbs should be prohibited.

Abstract
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is the most common cause for nephrotic syndrome in adults and occurs as an idiopathic (primary) or secondary disease. Since the early 2000's, substantial advances have been made in the understanding of the molecular bases of MN. The neutral endopeptidase (NEP) and the receptor for secretory phospholipase A2 (PLA2R) have been identified as target antigens for circulating and deposited antibodies in allo-immune neonatal and adult " idiopathic " MN, respectively. These antibodies recognize specific antigens of podocytes, precipitate as subepithelial immune complexes and activate complement leading to proteinuria. Anti-PLA2R antibodies are of particular clinical importance. Indeed, they are detected in approximately 70% of primary MN in adults, demonstrating that MN actually is an autoimmune condition specific to the kidney. In Europeans, genome-wide studies have shown an association between alleles of PLA2R1 and HLA DQA1 (class II genes of tissue histocompatibility complex) genes and idiopathic MN. Newly developed diagnostic tests detecting circulating anti-PLA2R antibody and PLA2R antigen in glomerular deposits have induced a change in paradigm in the diagnostic approach of idiopathic MN. Measurement of circulating anti-PLA2R antibody is also very useful for the monitoring of MN activity. However, the mechanisms responsible for the formation of anti-PLA2R antibodies as well as those involved in the progression of MN to end-stage renal disease remain to be defined.

Abstract
Aristolochic acids (AA) are nephrotoxic and profibrotic agents, leading to chronic kidney disease. As some controversial studies have reported a nephroprotective effect of exogenous recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP)-7 in several models of renal fibrosis, we investigated the putative effect of rhBMP-7 to prevent progressive tubulointerstitial damage after AA intoxication in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, the toxicity of AA on renal tubular cells was demonstrated by an increase in vimentin as well as a decrease in β-catenin expressions, reflecting a dedifferentiation process. Increased fibronectin and interleukin-6 levels were measured in the supernatants. Enhanced α-SMA mRNA levels associated to decreased E-cadherin mRNA levels were also measured. Incubation with rhBMP-7 only prevented the increase in vimentin and the decrease in β-catenin expressions. In vivo, in a rat model of AA nephropathy, severe tubulointerstitial lesions induced by AA after 10 and 35 days (collagen IV deposition and tubular atrophy), were not prevented by the rhBMP-7 treatment. Similarly, rhBMP-7 did not ameliorate the significant increase in urinary concentrations of transforming growth factor-β. In summary, our in vitro data demonstrated a poor beneficial effect of rhBMP-7 to reverse cell toxicity while, in vivo, there was no beneficial effect of rhBMP-7. Therefore, further investigations are needed to confirm the exact role of BMP-7 in progressive chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 2009 KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder clinical practice guideline suggests correcting 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25[OH]D) levels<30ng/mL in patients treated with maintenance hemodialysis, but does not provide a specific treatment protocol. STUDY DESIGN 2-center, double-blind, randomized, 13-week, controlled trial followed by a 26-week open-label study. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS 55 adult maintenance hemodialysis patients with 25(OH)D levels<30ng/mL were recruited from June 2008 through October 2009. INTERVENTION Cholecalciferol, 25,000IU, per week orally versus placebo for 13 weeks, then 26 weeks of individualized cholecalciferol prescription based on NKF-KDOQI (National Kidney Foundation-Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative) guidelines. OUTCOMES Primary end point was the percentage of patients with 25(OH)D levels≥30ng/mL at 13 weeks. Secondary outcomes included the percentage of patients with normal calcium, phosphorus, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) blood levels. Safety measures included incidence of hypercalcemia and hypervitaminosis D. MEASUREMENTS Blood calcium and phosphate were measured weekly; iPTH, 25(OH)D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25[OH]2D), and bone turnover markers, trimonthly; fetuin A and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) serum levels and aortic calcification scores were determined at weeks 0 and 39. RESULTS The primary end point significantly increased in the treatment group compared with the placebo group (61.5% vs 7.4%; P<0.001), as well as 1,25(OH)2D levels (22.5 [IQR, 15-26] vs 11 [IQR, 10-15]pg/mL; P<0.001) and the proportion of patients achieving the target calcium level (76.9% vs 48.2%; P=0.03). Incidence of hypercalcemia and phosphate and iPTH levels were similar between groups. The second 26-week study phase did not significantly modify the prevalence of 25(OH)D level≥30ng/mL in patients issued from the placebo group. LIMITATIONS Small size of the study population. CONCLUSIONS Oral weekly administration of 25,000IU of cholecalciferol for 13 weeks is an effective, safe, inexpensive, and manageable way to increase 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D levels in hemodialysis patients. Further evaluation of clinical end points is suggested.

Abstract
Diagnosis of endemic nephropathy (EN) is based on the combination of several clinical and laboratory criteria. Despite extensive research no specific diagnostic biomarker for EN has yet been identified. The aim of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic significance of the variables previously proposed as diagnostic criteria, but also new ones. After an extended questionnaire, the clinical and laboratory examination population in EN villages was classified according to the modified WHO criteria. The urinary active form of TGF-β was measured with a bioassay using a cell line which expresses luciferase activity. In the study we used ROC analysis to examine the predictive value of the tested variables. In the study there was no difference in haemoglobin level between the study subgroups. Leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) in urine and active urinary TGF-β levels were increased in the EN diseased group when compared to other subgroups, but they did not fulfil the statistical criteria needed for differentiating a diseased form from other study subgroups. Both kidney length and parenchima thickness, alfa1-microglobulinuria, and kidney function assessed by MDRD formula were the variables that differentiated the study subgroups well. Based on our results the cut-off value of alfa1-microglobulin for screening should be 23.5 mg/g creatinine instead of 15 mg/g creatinine in the present criteria, and for making a diagnosis of EN 31,5 mg/g creatinine. Persons with a positive family history for EN had a 5.8 times greater risk of developing EN when compared to a negative one. Taken together, the above-mentioned variables should be implemented in new uniform diagnostic criteria for EN.
