[PMID: 37803742 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113407] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 08/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
As an indispensable soybean-fermented condiment, soy sauce is extensively utilized in catering, daily cooking and food industry in East Asia and Southeast Asia and is becoming popular in the whole world. In the past decade, researchers began to pay great importance to the scientific research of soy sauce, which remarkably promoted the advances on fermentation strains, quality, safety, function and other aspects of soy sauce. Of them, the screening and reconstruction of Aspergillus oryzae with high-yield of salt and acid-tolerant proteases, mechanism of soy sauce flavor formation, improvement of soy sauce quality through the combination of novel physical processing technique and microbial/enzyme, separation and identification of soy sauce functional components are attracting more attention of researchers, and related achievements have been reported continually. Meanwhile, we pointed out the drawbacks of the above research and the future research directions based on published literature and our knowledge. We believe that this review can provide an insightful reference for international related researchers to understand the advances on soy sauce research.

Hsiao CJ, Hsiao SH, Chen WL, Guh JH, Hsiao G, Chan YJ, Lee TH, Chung CL. Pycnidione, a fungus-derived agent, induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in A549 human lung cancer cells. Chem Biol Interact 2012; 197:23-30. [PMID: 22450442 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2012.03.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2011] [Revised: 03/03/2012] [Accepted: 03/07/2012] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Pycnidione, a small tropolone first isolated from the fermented broth of Theissenia rogersii 92031201, exhibits antitumor activities through an undefined mechanism. The present study evaluated the effects and mechanisms of pycnidione on the growth and death of A549 human lung cancer cells. Pycnidione significantly inhibited the proliferation of A549 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, with a 50% growth inhibition (GI(50)) value of approximately 9.3nM at 48h. Pycnidione significantly decreased the expression of cyclins D1 and E and induced G(1)-phase cell cycle arrest and a subsequent increase in the sub-G(1) phase population. Pycnidione also markedly reduced the expression of survivin and activated caspase-8 and -3, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, caused the collapse of the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and enhanced PAI-1 production, thus triggering apoptosis in the A549 cells. Taken together, pycnidione exerts anti-proliferative effects on human lung cancer cells through the induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Therefore, testing of its effects in vivo is warranted to evaluate its potential as a therapeutic agent against lung cancer.

Upon the tightrope in prostate cancer: two acrobats on the same tightrope to cross the finishline. Mol Cell Biochem 2011; 364:53-7.

Abstract
Prostate cancer is a multifactorial, multistep progressive disorder that is undruggable to date because of stumbling blocks in the standardization of therapy. It is triggered by a broad range of proteins, signaling networks and DNA damage response modulators. It is becoming increasingly apparent that DNA repair mediators have split personalities, as they are instrumental in suppressing and promoting carcinogenesis. In this article, we discuss on post-transcriptional processing of regulators of DNA damage response, and how DNA repair proteins trigger shuttling of androgen receptor. Substantial fraction of information has been added into the existing literature of ATM biology; however, the particular area of post-transcriptional processing errors and gene therapy for reprogramming of ATM has been left unaddressed in prostate cancer. It is therefore noteworthy that the facet of targeting strategy, antisense morpholino oligonucleotides chemistry, and systematic delivery of AOs has promising outlook in splice-targeted antisense-mediated therapy.

Abstract
A murine hepatoma (Hepa 1c1c7) cellular bioassay was used to guide the isolation of phase II enzyme inducers from fermented soy sauce, using quinone reductase (QR) as a biomarker. A crude ethyl acetate extract, accounting for 8.7% of nonsalt soluble solids of soy sauce, was found to double relative QR specific activity at 25 μg/mL (concentration required to double was defined as a "CD value"). Further silica gel column fractionation yielded 17 fractions, 16 of which exhibited CD values for QR induction of <100 μg/mL. The four most potent fractions were subfractionated by column and preparative thin layer chromatography, leading to the isolation and identification of two phenolic compounds (catechol and daidzein) and two β-carbolines (flazin and perlolyrin), with respective CD values of 8, 35, 42, and 2 μM. Western blots confirmed that the increases in QR activity corresponded to dose-dependent increases in cellular levels of NAD[P]H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 protein by these four QR inducers. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report on the ability of β-carboline-derived alkaloids to induce phase II enzymes.
