Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is characterized by abnormal β-amyloid and tau accumulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and synaptic dysfunction. Here, we aimed to assess the mechanisms and signalling pathways in the neuroprotective effect of gastrodin, a phenolic glycoside, on murine neuroblastoma N2a cells expressing human Swedish mutant APP (N2a/APP). We found that gastrodin increased the levels of presynaptic-SNAP, synaptophysin, and postsynaptic-PSD95 and reduced phospho-tau Ser396, APP and Aβ1-42 levels in N2a/APP cells. Gastrodin treatment reduced reactive oxygen species generation, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial fragmentation and DNA oxidation; restored mitochondrial membrane potential and intracellular ATP production. Upregulated phospho-GSK-3β and reduced phospho-ERK and phospho-JNK were involved in the protective effect of gastrodin. In conclusion, we demonstrated the neuroprotective effect of gastrodin in the N2a/APP cell line by ameliorating the impairment on synaptic and mitochondrial function, reducing tau phosphorylation, Aβ1-42 levels as well as reactive oxygen species generation. These results provide new mechanistic insights into the potential effect of gastrodin in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Gastrodin is an extract from the dried tuber of the Chinese herb Gastrodia elata (Tian ma), with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiviral properties. Recent studies have shown that, compared to commonly used diabetes drugs, gastrodin has antidiabetic effects in multiple ways, with characteristics of low cost, high safety, less side effects, protection of β-cell function, relieving insulin resistance and alleviating multiple complications. In addition, it is confirmed that gastrodin can protect the function of lung and other organs, enhance antiviral activity via upregulating the type I interferon (IFN-I), and inhibit angiotensin II (AngII), a key factor in "cytokine storm" caused by COVID-19. Therefore, we reviewed the effect and mechanism of gastrodin on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and speculated other potential mechanisms of gastrodin in alleviating insulin resistance from insulin signal pathway, inflammation, mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum and its potential in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. We hope to provide new direction and treatment strategy for basic research and clinical work: gastrodin is considered as a drug for the prevention and treatment of diabetes and COVID-19.

Abstract
Gastrodia elata Blume is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine that is mainly used to treat diseases related to the nervous system, such as stroke, epilepsy, and headache. Gastrodin is the main bioactive component of Gastrodia elata Blume, and studies have shown that it has extensive pharmacological activity. This narrative review aims to systematically review relevant studies on the pharmacological effects of gastrodin to provide researchers with the latest and most useful information. Studies have shown that gastrodin has prominent neuroprotective effects and can treat or improve epilepsy, Tourette syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, emotional disorders, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, cognitive impairment, and neuropathic pain. Gastrodin can also improve myocardial hypertrophy, hypertension, and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. In addition, gastrodin can mitigate liver, kidney, and bone tissue damage caused by oxidative stress and inflammation. In short, gastrodin is expected to treat many diseases, and it is worth investing more effort in research on this compound.

Abstract
Gastrodia elata exhibits extensive pharmacological activity; its extract gastrodin (GAS) has been used clinically to treat cardiovascular diseases. In the present study, we examined the effect of GAS in a mice model of pathological cardiac hypertrophy, which was induced using transverse aortic constriction (TAC). Male C57BL/6 J mice underwent either TAC or sham surgery. GAS was administered post-surgically for 6 weeks and significantly improved the deterioration of cardiac contractile function caused by pressure overload, cardiac hypertrophy, and fibrosis in mice. Treatment with GAS for 6 weeks upregulated myosin heavy chain α and down-regulated myosin heavy chain β and atrial natriuretic peptide, while insulin increased the effects of GAS against cardiac hypertrophy. In vitro studies showed that GAS could also protect phenylephrine-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, and these effects were attenuated by BAY-876, and increased by insulin. Taken together, our results suggest that the anti-hypertrophic effect of gastrodin depends on its entry into cardiomyocytes through GLUT4.

Abstract
Gastrodin, a traditional Chinese medicine ingredient, is widely used to treat vascular and neurological diseases. However, recently, an increasing number of studies have shown that gastrodin has anti-osteoporosis effects, and its mechanisms of action include its antioxidant effect, anti-inflammatory effect, and anti-apoptotic effect. In addition, gastrodin has many unique advantages in promoting bone healing in tissue engineering, such as inducing high hydrophilicity in the material surface, its anti-inflammatory effect, and pro-vascular regeneration. Therefore, this paper summarized the effects and mechanisms of gastrodin on osteoporosis and bone regeneration in the current research. Here we propose an assumption that the use of gastrodin in the surface loading of oral implants may greatly promote the osseointegration of implants and increase the success rate of implants. In addition, we speculated on the potential mechanisms of gastrodin against osteoporosis, by affecting actin filament polymerization, renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and ferroptosis, and proposed that the potential combination of gastrodin with Mg2+, angiotensin type 2 receptor blockers or artemisinin may greatly inhibit osteoporosis. The purpose of this review is to provide a reference for more in-depth research and application of gastrodin in the treatment of osteoporosis and implant osseointegration in the future.

A comparative study of vestibular improvement and gastrointestinal effect of betahistine and gastrodin in mice. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 153:113344. [PMID: 35780620 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2022.113344] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Betahistine and gastrodin are the first-line medications for vestibular disorders in clinical practice, nevertheless, their amelioration effects on vestibular dysfunctions still lack direct comparison and their unexpected extra-vestibular effects remain elusive. Recent clinical studies have indicated that both of them may have effects on the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Therefore, we purposed to systematically compare both vestibular and GI effects induced by betahistine and gastrodin and tried to elucidate the mechanisms underlying their GI effects. Our results showed that betahistine and gastrodin indeed had similar therapeutic effects on vestibular-associated motor dysfunction induced by unilateral labyrinthectomy. However, betahistine reduced total GI motility with gastric hypomotility and colonic hypermotility, whereas gastrodin did not influence total GI motility with only slight colonic hypermotility. In addition, betahistine, at normal dosages, induced a slight injury of gastric mucosa. These GI effects may be due to the different effects of betahistine and gastrodin on substance P and vasoactive intestinal peptide secretion in stomach and/or colon, and agonistic/anatgonistic effects of betahistine on histamine H1 and H3 receptors expressed in GI mucosal cells and H3 receptors distributed on nerves within the myenteric and submucosal plexuses. Furthermore, treatment of betahistine and gastrodin had potential effects on gut microbiota composition, which could lead to changes in host-microbiota homeostasis in turn. These results demonstrate that gastrodin has a consistent improvement effect on vestibular functions compared with betahistine but less effect on GI functions and gut microbiota, suggesting that gastrodin may be more suitable for vestibular disease patients with GI dysfunction.

Neurotox Res 2021; 39:1495-1510.

Abstract
Tanshinone I (T-I, C18H12O3) is a diterpene found in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (Danshen) and promotes cytoprotection in several experimental models. Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an agrochemical that causes bioenergetics failure, redox impairment, inflammation, and cell death in animal tissues. Here, we investigated whether T-I would be able to prevent the consequences resulting from the exposure of the human dopaminergic SH-SY5Y cells to CPF. We found that a pretreatment with T-I at 2.5 µM for 2 h suppressed lipid peroxidation and protein carbonylation and nitration on the membranes of mitochondria extracted from the CPF-treated cells. Also, T-I reduced the production of radical superoxide (O2-•) by the mitochondria of the CPF-challenged cells. The production of nitric oxide (NO•) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was also decreased by T-I in the cells exposed to CPF. The CPF-induced decrease in the activity of the complexes I-III, II-III, and V was abolished by a pretreatment with T-I. Loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and reduction in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were also prevented by T-I in the CPF-treated cells. T-I also induced anti-inflammatory effects in the CPF-treated cells by decreasing the levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and the activity of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). Inhibition of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) or silencing of the transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) blocked the T-I-promoted mitochondrial protection and anti-inflammatory action. Overall, T-I depended on the Nrf2/HO-1 axis to prevent the deleterious effects caused by CPF in this experimental model.

Abstract
Gastrodin (GAS) is the main bioactive component of Tianma, a traditional Chinese medicine widely used to treat neurological disorders as well as cardio- and cerebrovascular diseases. In the present study, the protective effects of GAS on H9c2 cells against ischemia-reperfusion (IR)-like injury were found to be related to decreasing of oxidative stress. Furthermore, GAS could protect H9c2 cells against oxidative injury induced by H2O2. Pretreatment of GAS at 20, 50, and 100 μM for 4 h significantly ameliorated the decrease in cell viability and increase in apoptosis of H9c2 cells treated with 400 μM H2O2 for 3 h. Furthermore, we showed that H2O2 treatment induced fragmentation of mitochondria and significant reduction in networks, footprint, and tubular length of mitochondria; H2O2 treatment strongly inhibited mitochondrial respiration; H2O2 treatment induced a decrease in the expression of mitochondrial fusion factors Mfn2 and Opa1, and increase in the expression of mitochondrial fission factor Fis1. All these alterations in H2O2-treated H9c2 cells could be ameliorated by GAS pretreatment. Moreover, we revealed that GAS pretreatment enhanced the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 under H2O2 treatment. Knockdown of Nrf2 expression abolished the protective effects of GAS on H2O2-treated H9c2 cells. Our results suggest that GAS may protect H9c2 cardiomycytes against oxidative injury via increasing the nuclear translocation of Nrf2, regulating mitochondrial dynamics, and maintaining the structure and functions of mitochondria.

Zhang L, Wang Y, Shen H, Zhao M. Combined signaling of NF-kappaB and IL-17 contributes to Mesenchymal stem cells-mediated protection for Paraquat-induced acute lung injury. BMC Pulm Med 2020; 20:195. [PMID: 32680482 PMCID: PMC7367411 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-020-01232-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2020] [Accepted: 07/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Paraquat (PQ) is an herbicide widely used in the world. PQ can cause pulmonary toxicity and even acute lung injury. Treatment for PQ poisoning in a timely manner is still a challenge for clinicians. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation has hold potentials for the treatment of several lung diseases including PQ poisoning. The aim of this study is to examine the mechanisms mediated by MSC transplantation to protect PQ-induced lung injury. METHODS Here we performed the whole genome sequencing and compared the genes and pathways in the lung that were altered by PQ or PQ together with MSC treatment. RESULTS The comparison in transcriptome identified a combined mitigation in NF-kappaB signaling and IL-17 signaling in MSC transplanted samples. CONCLUSION This study not only reiterates the important role of NF-kappaB signaling and IL-17 signaling in the pathogenesis of PQ-induced toxicity, but also provides insight into a molecular basis of MSC administration for the treatment of PQ-induced toxicity.

The Potential Role of PKA/CREB Signaling Pathway Concerned with Gastrodin Administration on Methamphetamine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference Rats and SH-SY5Y Cell Line. Neurotox Res 2020; 37:926-935. [PMID: 31900897 DOI: 10.1007/s12640-019-00150-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2019] [Revised: 11/16/2019] [Accepted: 12/11/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
To investigate the effects of gastrodin (GAS) on methamphetamine (MA)-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) in rats and explore its potential mechanisms. MA (10 mg/kg) was initially injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) in rats, after which they were administered either MA or saline alternately from day 4 to 13 (D4-13) for 10 days, followed by treatment with GAS (10 or 20 mg/kg, i.p.) on D15-21 for 7 days. The rats underwent CPP testing after MA and GAS treatment. In vitro, SH-SY5Y cells were exposed to MA (2.0 mM) for 24 h, followed by treatment with GAS (2.0 or 4.0 mM) for 24 h. The expression levels of PKA, P-PKA, CREB, and P-CREB proteins in the prefrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens, and ventral tegmental area of MA-induced CPP rats and in SH-SY5Y cells were detected by Western blot analysis. The MA-induced CPP rat model was successfully established. The administration of MA stimulated a significant alteration in behavior, as measured by the CPP protocol. After treatment with GAS, the amount of time rats spent in the MA-paired chamber was significantly reduced. Results also showed that MA increased the expression levels of PKA, P-PKA, CREB, and p-CREB proteins in the prefrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens, and ventral tegmental area of CPP rats and in SH-SY5Y cells (p < 0.05). GAS attenuated the effect of MA-induced CPP in rats and decreased the expression levels of proteins in vivo and in vitro. Our study suggests that GAS can attenuate the effects of MA-induced CPP in rats by regulating the PKA/CREB signaling pathway.

Mitochondrial Protection Promoted by the Coffee Diterpene Kahweol in Methylglyoxal-Treated Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells. Neurotox Res 2019; 37:100-110.

Abstract
The coffee diterpene kahweol (KW; C20H26O3) is a cytoprotective agent exhibiting potent antioxidant actions, as demonstrated in several experimental models. In spite of the efforts to elucidate exactly how KW promotes cytoprotection, it was not previously examined whether KW would be able to protect mitochondria of human cells undergoing redox stress. In the present work, we have treated the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line with KW at 0.1-10 μM for 12 h prior to a challenge with methylglyoxal (MG), a reactive dicarbonyl that impairs mitochondrial function. We have found that KW at 10 μM suppressed the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and the bioenergetics decline (including decreased activity of the mitochondrial complexes I and V and reduced production of adenosine triphosphate, ATP) in the MG-treated SH-SY5Y cells. KW also prevented the MG-elicited generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS, respectively) in the SH-SY5Y cells. In this regard, KW exerted an antioxidant effect on the membranes of mitochondria obtained from the MG-treated cells. The mitochondria-related effects induced by KW were blocked by inhibition of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt or of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways. Moreover, silencing of the transcription factor nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) suppressed the mitochondrial protection promoted by KW in the MG-challenged cells. Therefore, KW protected mitochondria by a mechanism associated with the PI3K/Akt and p38 MAPK/Nrf2 signaling pathways.

Abstract
Despite available treatment options, the overall survival rates of pancreatic cancer patients remain dismal. Multiple counter-regulatory pathways have been identified and shown to be involved in interfering with the efficacy of therapeutic agents. In addition, various known genetic alterations in the cellular signaling pathways have been implicated in affecting the growth and progression of pancreatic cancer. Nevertheless, the significance of other unknown pathways is yet to be explored, which provides the rationale for the intervention of new approaches. Several experimental genetic models have been explored to define the impact of key signaling cascades, and their mechanisms in the pathophysiology as well as treatment approaches of pancreatic cancer. The current review highlights the recent updates, and significance of such genetic models in the therapeutic efficacy of anti-tumor agents including the standard chemotherapeutic agents, natural products, cell signaling inhibitors, immunebased therapies and the combination of these approaches in pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) suffer more risks from diabetic encephalopathy such as cognitive dysfunction and depressive-like behaviors. Numerous studies show that ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress and inflammation play important roles in the development of diabetic encephalopathy. Gastrodin (Gas), one major component of Gastrodia elata, is traditionally used in central nervous system disorders and is believed to possess anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and other neuroprotective effects. This present study aims to explore the protective effects of Gas on diabetic encephalopathy. Gas was administrated daily (70 and 140 mg/Kg) for 12 weeks. Meanwhile, the fasting blood glucose and body weight of db/db mice were measured every two weeks. After Gas treatment, the Morris water maze (MWM) test and novel object recognition (NOR) test were performed to assess the learning and memory functions of db/db mice, and the forced swim test was performed to evaluate depressive-like behaviors of db/db mice. Additionally, the expression of ER stress and Nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain-like (Nod) receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome related proteins were evaluated by using Western blot. Our study suggested that Gas attenuated blood glucose levels and dyslipidemia of db/db mice. It has been shown that Gas could improve learning and memory function and depressive-like behaviors of db/db mice. Moreover, Gas inhibited ER stress and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in the hippocampus. Taken together, this study demonstrates that Gas attenuates the diabetic encephalopathy by inhibiting ER stress and NLRP3 inflammasome activation.
