Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of coccidiosis on bone quality and antioxidant status in the liver and bone marrow of broiler chickens. A total of 360 13-day old male broilers (Cobb 500) were randomly assigned to different groups (negative control, low, medium-low, medium-high, and highest dose groups) and orally gavaged with different concentrations of Eimeria oocysts solution. Broiler tibia and tibia bone marrow were collected at 6 days post-infection (6 dpi) for bone 3-D structural analyses and the gene expression related to osteogenesis, oxidative stress, and adipogenesis using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and real-time qPCR analysis, respectively. Metaphyseal bone mineral density and content were reduced in response to the increase of Eimeria challenge dose, and poor trabecular bone traits were observed in the high inoculation group. However, there were no significant structural changes in metaphyseal cortical bone. Medium-high Eimeria challenge dose significantly increased level of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG, p < 0.05) and decreased levels of bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein coding gene (BGLAP, p < 0.05) and fatty acid synthase coding gene (FASN, p < 0.05) in bone marrow. An increased mRNA level of superoxide dismutase type 1 (SOD1, p < 0.05) and heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1, p < 0.05), and increased enzyme activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD, p < 0.05) were found in bone marrow of Eimeria challenged groups compared with that of non-infected control. Similarly, enzyme activity of SOD and the mRNA level of SOD1, HMOX1 and aflatoxin aldehyde reductase (AKE7A2) were increased in the liver of infected broilers (p < 0.05), whereas glutathione (GSH) content was lower in the medium-high challenge group (p < 0.05) compared with non-challenged control. Moreover, the mRNA expression of catalase (CAT) and nuclear factor kappa B1 (NFKB1) showed dose-depend response in the liver, where expression of CAT and NFKB1 was upregulated in the low challenge group but decreased with the higher Eimeria challenge dosage (p < 0.05). In conclusion, high challenge dose of Eimeria infection negatively affected the long bone development. The structural changes of tibia and decreased mineral content were mainly located at the trabecular bone of metaphyseal area. The change of redox and impaired antioxidant status following the Eimeria infection were observed in the liver and bone marrow of broilers.

Genetic mapping of renal glutathione suggests a novel regulatory locus on the murine X chromosome and overlap with hepatic glutathione regulation. Free Radic Biol Med 2021; 174:28-39.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is a critical cellular antioxidant that protects against byproducts of aerobic metabolism and other reactive electrophiles to prevent oxidative stress and cell death. Proper maintenance of its reduced form, GSH, in excess of its oxidized form, GSSG, prevents oxidative stress in the kidney and protects against the development of chronic kidney disease. Evidence has indicated that renal concentrations of GSH and GSSG, as well as their ratio GSH/GSSG, are moderately heritable, and past research has identified polymorphisms and candidate genes associated with these phenotypes in mice. Yet those discoveries were made with in silico mapping methods that are prone to false positives and power limitations, so the true loci and candidate genes that control renal glutathione remain unknown. The present study utilized high-resolution gene mapping with the Diversity Outbred mouse stock to identify causal loci underlying variation in renal GSH levels and redox status. Mapping output identified a suggestive locus associated with renal GSH on murine chromosome X at 51.602 Mbp, and bioinformatic analyses identified apoptosis-inducing factor mitochondria-associated 1 (Aifm1) as the most plausible candidate. Then, mapping outputs were compiled and compared against the genetic architecture of the hepatic GSH system, and we discovered a locus on murine chromosome 14 that overlaps between hepatic GSH concentrations and renal GSH redox potential. Overall, the results support our previously proposed model that the GSH redox system is regulated by both global and tissue-specific loci, vastly improving our understanding of GSH and its regulation and proposing new candidate genes for future mechanistic studies.

Abstract
The tripeptide glutathione (GSH) is instrumental to antioxidant protection and xenobiotic metabolism, and the ratio of its reduced and oxidized forms (GSH/GSSG) indicates the cellular redox environment and maintains key aspects of cellular signaling. Disruptions in GSH levels and GSH/GSSG have long been tied to various chronic diseases, and many studies have examined whether variant alleles in genes responsible for GSH synthesis and metabolism are associated with increased disease risk. However, past studies have been limited to established, canonical GSH genes, though emerging evidence suggests that novel loci and genes influence the GSH redox system in specific tissues. The present study marks the most comprehensive effort to date to directly identify genetic loci associated with the GSH redox system. We employed the Diversity Outbred (DO) mouse population, a model of human genetics, and measured GSH and the essential redox cofactor NADPH in liver, the organ with the highest levels of GSH in the body. Under normal physiological conditions, we observed substantial variation in hepatic GSH and NADPH levels and their redox balances, and discovered a novel, significant quantitative trait locus (QTL) on murine chromosome 16 underlying GSH/GSSG; bioinformatics analyses revealed Socs1 to be the most likely candidate gene. We also discovered novel QTL associated with hepatic NADP+ levels and NADP+/NADPH, as well as unique candidate genes behind each trait. Overall, these findings transform our understanding of the GSH redox system, revealing genetic loci that govern it and proposing new candidate genes to investigate in future mechanistic endeavors.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) (such as occlusion of the coronary arteries, hypertensive heart diseases and strokes) are diseases that generate thousands of patients with a high mortality rate worldwide. Many of these cardiovascular pathologies, during their development, generate a state of oxidative stress that leads to a deterioration in the patient’s conditions associated with the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). Within these reactive species we find superoxide anion (O2•–), hydroxyl radical (•OH), nitric oxide (NO•), as well as other species of non-free radicals such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hypochlorous acid (HClO) and peroxynitrite (ONOO–). A molecule that actively participates in counteracting the oxidizing effect of reactive species is reduced glutathione (GSH), a tripeptide that is present in all tissues and that its synthesis and/or regeneration is very important to be able to respond to the increase in oxidizing agents. In this review, we will address the role of glutathione, its synthesis in both the heart and the liver, and its importance in preventing or reducing deleterious ROS effects in cardiovascular diseases.

Metabolic Profiling by UPLC-Orbitrap-MS/MS of Liver from C57BL/6 Mice with DSS-Induced Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Mediators Inflamm 2020; 2020:6020247.

Abstract
Liver disorder often occurs in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); however, the changes in IBD-induced liver disorder at the intrinsic molecular level (chiefly metabolites) and therapeutic targets are still poorly characterized. First, a refined and translationally relevant model of DSS chronic colitis in C57BL/6 mice was established, and cecropin A and antibiotics were used as interventions. We found that the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in the liver tissues of mice were highly increased in the context of DSS treatment but were lowered by cecropin A and antibiotics. Subsequently, an untargeted metabolomics analysis was performed by UPLC–Orbitrap–MS/MS to reveal the metabolic profile and attempt to find the potential therapeutic targets of the liver disorders that occur in IBD. Notably, 133 metabolites were identified by an integrated database. Metabolism network and pathway analyses demonstrated that the metabolic disturbance of the liver in IBD mice was mainly enriched in bile acid metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and steroid hormone biosynthesis, while those disturbances were regulated or reversed through cecropin A and antibiotic treatment. Furthermore, the top 20 metabolites, such as glutathione, maltose, arachidonic acid, and thiamine, were screened as biomarkers via one-way analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA, p < 0.05) coupled with variable importance for project values (VIP >1) of orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), which could be upregulated or downregulated with the cecropin A and antibiotics treatment. Spearman correlation analysis showed that the majority of the biomarkers have a significant correlation with cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10), indicating that those biomarkers may act as potential targets to interact directly or indirectly with cecropin A and antibiotics to affect liver inflammation. Collectively, our results extend the understanding of the molecular alteration of liver disorders occurring in IBD and offer an opportunity for discovering potential therapeutic targets in the IBD process.
