Abstract
Over the years, health challenges have become increasingly complex and global and, at the beginning of the 21st century, chronic diseases, including cardiovascular, neurological, and chronic respiratory diseases, as well as cancer and diabetes, have been identified by World Health Organization as one of the biggest threats to human health. Recently, antimicrobial resistance has also emerged as a growing problem of public health for the management of infectious diseases. In this scenario, the exploration of natural products as supplementation or alternative therapeutic options is acquiring great importance, and, among them, the olive tree, Olea europaea L, specifically leaves, fruits, and oil, has been increasingly investigated for its health promoting properties. Traditionally, these properties have been largely attributed to the high concentration of monounsaturated fatty acids, although, in recent years, beneficial effects have also been associated to other components, particularly polyphenols. Among them, the most interesting group is represented by Olea europaea L secoiridoids, comprising oleuropein, oleocanthal, oleacein, and ligstroside, which display anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, cardioprotective, neuroprotective and anticancer activities. This review provides an overview of the multiple health beneficial effects, the molecular mechanisms, and the potential applications of secoiridoids from Olea europaea L.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Despite standard of care with maximal safe resection and chemoradiation, glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive type of primary brain cancer. Surgical resection provides a window of opportunity to locally treat gliomas while the patient is recovering, and before initiating concomitant chemoradiation. To assess the safety and establish the maximum tolerated dose of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AMSCs) for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma (GBM). Secondary objectives are to assess the toxicity profile and long-term survival outcomes of patients enrolled in the trial. Additionally, biospecimens will be collected to explore the local and systemic responses to this therapy. Methods We will conduct a phase 1, dose escalated, non-randomized, open label, clinical trial of GBM patients who are undergoing surgical resection for recurrence. Up to 18 patients will receive intra-cavitary application of AMSCs encapsulated in fibrin glue during surgical resection. All patients will be followed for up to 5 years for safety and survival data. Adverse events will be recorded using the CTCAE V5.0. Expected Outcomes This study will explore the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of AMSCs along with the toxicity profile of this therapy in patients with recurrent GBM. Additionally, preliminary long-term survival and progression-free survival outcome analysis will be used to power further randomized studies. Lastly, CSF and blood will be obtained throughout the treatment period to investigate circulating molecular and inflammatory tumoral/stem cell markers and explore the mechanism of action of the therapeutic intervention. Discussion This prospective translational study will determine the initial safety and toxicity profile of local delivery of AMSCs for recurrent GBM. It will also provide additional survival metrics for future randomized trials.

[PMID: 37403164 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-023-01119-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 06/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs-Exos) have exhibited a therapeutic role in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Further studies are needed to investigate how ADSCs-Exos regulate oxidative stress and inflammation in high glucose-induced podocyte injury. METHODS An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect cellular inflammation. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were assessed using flow cytometry in podocytes with different treatments. A malondialdehyde (MDA) kit was used to evaluate the lipid peroxidation levels in podocytes and kidney tissues of mice. Western blotting and co-immunoprecipitation were performed to detect protein expression and protein-protein interactions. RESULTS ADSCs-Exos reversed oxidative stress and inflammation in podocytes and kidney tissues of DN mice induced by high glucose levels in vitro and in vivo. Interference with heme oxygenase-1 expression could reverse the improvement effect of ADSCs-Exos on oxidative stress induced by high glucose levels. Furthermore, high glucose inhibited nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) protein expression and promoted Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) protein expression in podocytes, as well as their binding ability. As a potential target for Nrf2/Keap1 pathway regulation, FAM129B expression in podocytes is regulated by high glucose and ADSCs-Exos. Moreover, FAM129B siRNA blocked the inhibitory effect of ADSCs-Exos on intracellular ROS and MDA upregulation induced by high glucose in podocytes. CONCLUSION ADSCs-Exos regulate the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway to alleviate inflammation and oxidative stress in DN by targeting FAM129B, which may provide a potential therapeutic strategy for DN.

Clin Transl Med 2022; 12:e1093. [PMID: 36495120 PMCID: PMC9736801 DOI: 10.1002/ctm2.1093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2022] [Revised: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by the gradual decline and irreversible loss of cognitive functions and CNS structures. As therapeutic recourse stagnates, neurodegenerative diseases will cost over a trillion dollars by 2050. A dearth of preventive and regenerative measures to hinder regression and enhance recovery has forced patients to settle for traditional therapeutics designed to manage symptoms, leaving little hope for a cure. In the last decade, pre-clinical animal models and clinical investigations in humans have demonstrated the safety and promise of an emerging cellular product from subcutaneous fat. The adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) is an early intervention and late-stage novel 'at point' of care cellular treatment, demonstrating improvements in clinical applications for Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. SVF is a heterogeneous fraction of cells forming a robust cellular ecosystem and serving as a novel and valuable source of point-of-care autologous cell therapy, providing an easy-to-access population that we hypothesize can mediate repair through 'bi-directional' communication in response to pathological cues. We provide the first comprehensive review of all pre-clinical and clinical findings available to date and highlight major challenges and future directions. There is a greater medical and economic urgency to innovate and develop novel cellular therapy solutions that enable the repair and regeneration of neuronal tissue that has undergone irreversible and permanent damage.
