Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale luminal vesicles that participate in the information transfer of proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids between cells, thereby playing a role in the treatment of diseases and the delivery of nutrients. In recent years, plant-derived EVs (PDEVs) containing bioactive compounds have attracted increasing interest due to their better biocompatibility and lower cytotoxicity in healthy tissues. In the biomedical field, PDEVs have been used as cargo carriers to achieve various functions through engineering modification techniques. This review focuses on the biogenesis, isolation, and identification of PDEVs. We discuss the surface functionalization of PDEVs to enhance therapeutic efficacy, thereby improving their efficiency as a next-generation drug delivery vehicle and their feasibility to treat diseases across the physiological barriers, while critically analyzing the current challenges and opportunities.

Abstract
Molecular targeting strategies have been used for years in order to control cancer progression and are often based on targeting various enzymes involved in metabolic pathways. Keeping this in mind, it is essential to determine the role of each enzyme in a particular metabolic pathway. In this review, we provide in-depth information on various enzymes such as ceramidase, sphingosine kinase, sphingomyelin synthase, dihydroceramide desaturase, and ceramide synthase which are associated with various types of cancers. We also discuss the physicochemical properties of well-studied inhibitors with natural product origins and their related structures in terms of these enzymes. Targeting ceramide metabolism exhibited promising mono- and combination therapies at preclinical stages in preventing cancer progression and cemented the significance of sphingolipid metabolism in cancer treatments. Targeting ceramide-metabolizing enzymes will help medicinal chemists design potent and selective small molecules for treating cancer progression at various levels.

[PMID: 37340831 DOI: 10.1002/ajmg.a.63325] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2022] [Revised: 03/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/22/2023]
Abstract
Plasma ceramide levels (henceforth, "ceramides") are biomarkers of some diseases that are comorbidities of Down syndrome (DS). We sought to determine if comorbidities in DS were associated with ceramides, studying a convenience cohort of 35 study participants, all ≥12 months old. To identify comorbidities, we reviewed the problem lists in electronic health records that were concurrent with sample collection. We placed clinically related comorbidities into one of five categories of comorbidities, henceforth, categories: obesity/overweight; autoimmune disease; congenital heart disease; bacterial infection; and central nervous system (CNS) condition. We measured the eight ceramides most frequently associated with disease using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. We calculated a ceramide composite outcome score (CCOS) for each participant by normalizing each ceramide level to the mean for that level in the study population and then summing the normalized levels, to be proxy variable for all eight ceramides in aggregate. We used multivariable linear regression models adjusted for age and sex to test associations of categories with ceramides and with CCOSs. Post hoc, we realized that co-occurring comorbidities might interfere with establishing associations between predictor categories and ceramides and that stratified analyses might eliminate their influence on associations. We posited that CCOSs could be used to screen for associations of categories with multiple ceramides, since most diseases have been associated with more than one ceramide. We chose to omit in the stratified analyses the two categories that were the most different from one another in their associations with their CCOSs, having the most divergent regression coefficients (the highest positive and lowest negative coefficients). We first omitted one of these two divergent categories in a stratified analysis and tested in the remaining participants (those without a comorbidity in the interfering category) for associations of the other four categories with their CCOSs and then did the same for the other divergent category. In each of these two screening stratified analyses, we found one category was significantly associated with its CCOS. In the two identified categories, we then tested for associations with each of the eight ceramides, using the appropriate stratified analysis. Next, we sought to determine if the associations of the two categories with ceramides we found by omitting participants in the interfering categories held in our small sample for participants in the omitted categories as well. For each of the two categories, we therefore omitted participants without the interfering category and determined associations between the predictor category and individual ceramides in the remaining participants (those with a comorbidity in the interfering category). In the a priori analyses, autoimmune disease was inversely associated with C16 and CNS condition was inversely associated with C23. Obesity/overweight and CNS condition were the two categories with the most divergent regression coefficients (0.037 vs. -0.048). In post hoc stratified analyses, after omitting participants with obesity/overweight, thereby leaving participants without obesity/overweight, bacterial infection was associated with its CCOS and then with C14, C20, and C22. However, in the companion stratified analyses, omitting participants without obesity/overweight, thereby leaving participants with obesity/overweight, bacterial infection was not associated with any of the eight ceramides. Similarly, in post hoc stratified analyses after omitting participants with a CNS condition, thereby leaving participants without a CNS condition, obesity/overweight was associated with its CCOS and then with C14, C23, and C24. In the companion analyses, omitting participants without a CNS condition, thereby leaving participants with a CNS condition, obesity/overweight was inversely associated with C24.1. In conclusion, CNS and autoimmune disease were inversely associated with one ceramide each in a priori analyses. In post hoc analyses, we serendipitously omitted categories that interfered with associations of other categories with ceramides in stratified analyses. We found that bacterial infection was associated with three ceramides in participants without obesity/overweight and that obesity/overweight was associated with three ceramides in participants without a CNS condition. We therefore identified obesity/overweight and CNS conditions as potential confounders or effect modifiers for these associations. This is the first report of ceramides in DS and in human bacterial infection. Further study of ceramides in comorbidities of DS is justified.

Abstract
Fumonisin B1 (FB1) contaminates various crops, causing huge losses to agriculture and livestock worldwide. This review summarizes the occurrence regularity, toxicity, toxic mechanisms and management strategies of FB1. Specifically, FB1 contamination is particularly serious in developing countries, humid and hot regions. FB1 exposure can produce different toxic effects on the nervous system, respiratory system, digestive system and reproductive system. Furthermore, FB1 can also cause systemic immunotoxicity. The mechanism of toxic effects of FB1 is to interfere with the normal pathway of sphingolipid de novo biosynthesis by acting as a competitive inhibitor of ceramide synthase. Meanwhile, the toxic products of sphingolipid metabolic disorders can cause oxidative stress and apoptosis. FB1 also often causes feed contamination by mixing with other mycotoxins, and then exerts combined toxicity. For detection, lateral flow dipstick technology and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay are widely used in the detection of FB1 in commercial feeds, while mainstream detection methods such as high performance liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry are widely used in the laboratory theoretical study of FB1. For purification means of FB1, some natural plant extracts (such as Zingiber officinale and Litsea Cubeba essential oil) and their active compounds have been proved to inhibit the toxic effects of FB1 and protect livestock due to their antifungal and antioxidant effects. Natural plant extract has the advantages of high efficiency, low cost and no contamination residue. This review can provide information for comprehensive understanding of FB1, and provide reference for formulating reasonable treatment and management strategies in livestock production.

Abstract
Effective strategies in prolonging life- and health span are increasingly recognized as acting as mild stressors. Micronutrients and other dietary compounds such as (poly)phenols may act as moderate stressors and confer protective effects via a preconditioning phenomenon. (Poly)phenols and their metabolites may not need to reach their target cells to produce biologically significant responses, so that cells exposed to it at entry points may communicate signals to other cells. One of such "communication" mechanisms could occur through extracellular vesicles, including exosomes. In vitro loading of exosomes with (poly)phenols has been used to achieve targeted exosome homing. However, it is unknown if similar shuttling phenomena occur in vivo upon (poly)phenols consumption. Alternatively, exposure to (poly)phenols might trigger responses in exposed organs, which can subsequently signal to cells distant from exposure sites via exosomes. The currently available studies favor indirect effects of (poly)phenols, tempting to suggest a "billiard-like" or "domino-like" propagating effect mediated by quantitative and qualitative changes in exosomes triggered by (poly)phenols. In this review, we discuss the limited current data available on how (poly)phenols exposure can potentially modify exosomes activity, highlighting major questions regarding how (epi)genetic, physiological, and gut microbiota factors can modulate and be modulated by the putative exosome-(poly)phenolic compound interplay that still remains to be fully understood.

Exosome-Containing Extracellular Vesicles Contribute to the Transport of Resveratrol Metabolites in the Bloodstream: A Human Pharmacokinetic Study. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14173632. [PMID: 36079893 PMCID: PMC9459822 DOI: 10.3390/nu14173632] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 08/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Exosomes are extracellular vesicles (EVs) that regulate intercellular signaling by transferring small RNAs, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and other metabolites to local or distant organs, including the brain, by crossing the blood–brain barrier. However, the transport of (poly)phenols in human EVs has not yet been described. Therefore, we aimed here to explore (i) whether resveratrol and (or) its derived metabolites are found in the cargo of human plasma exosome-containing EVs (E-EVs), (ii) when this incorporation occurs, and (iii) whether resveratrol intake stimulates the release of E-EVs. Thus, in a pharmacokinetic study, healthy volunteers (n = 16) consumed 1 capsule (420 mg resveratrol) in the evening before attending the clinic and one more capsule on the day of the pharmacokinetics. The plasma and the isolated E-EVs were analyzed using UPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS. Of 17 metabolites in the plasma, 9 were identified in the E-EVs, but not free resveratrol. The kinetic profiles of resveratrol metabolites were similar in the plasma and the E-EVs, a higher metabolite concentration being detected in the plasma than in the E-EVs. However, the plasma/E-EVs ratio decreased in the gut microbial metabolites, suggesting their better encapsulation efficiency in E-EVs. In addition, glucuronide conjugates of resveratrol, dihydroresveratrol, and lunularin were incorporated into the E-EVs more efficiently than their corresponding sulfates despite glucuronides reaching lower plasma concentrations. Notably, more E-EVs were detected 10 h after resveratrol consumption. This exploratory study provides the first evidence that (i) resveratrol metabolites are transported by E-EVs, with a preference for glucuronide vs. sulfates, (ii) the gut microbial metabolites concentration and kinetic profiles are closely similar in E-EVs and plasma, and (iii) resveratrol intake elicits E-EVs secretion. Overall, these results open new research avenues on the possible role of E-EVs in (poly)phenol health effects.

Rottlerin Stimulates Exosome/Microvesicle Release via the Increase of Ceramide Levels Mediated by Ampk in an In Vitro Model of Intracellular Lipid Accumulation. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10061316. [PMID: 35740338 PMCID: PMC9219951 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10061316] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2022] [Revised: 05/23/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Exosomes/microvesicles originate from multivesicular bodies that allow the secretion of endolysosome components out of the cell. In the present work, we investigated the effects of rottlerin, a polyphenol, on exosome/microvesicle secretion in a model of intracellular lipid trafficking impairment, and elucidated the mechanism of action. In a model of lipid trafficking impairment in C6 glia cells, rottlerin increased ceramide levels, while decreasing hexosylceramide content. This was accompanied by increased exosome/microvesicle secretion, thereby reducing the concentration of lipids in the endolysosomal compartment. The reduction of hexosylceramide levels by rottlerin was attributed to the increase of β-glucosidase (glucosylceramidase) activity, and the effects of rottlerin were abrogated by β-glucosidase inhibitors such as isofagomine D-tartrate and AMP-deoxynojirimycin. Moreover, treatment with ML-266, a potent activator of the β-glucosidase enzyme, recapitulated the effects of rottlerin on the sphingolipid profile and exosome/microvesicle secretion. Finally, inhibition of AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) using compound C prevented both exosome/microvesicle secretion and the elimination of endolysosome lipids, which were promoted by rottlerin. The results showed that the decrease in intracellular lipid deposition induced by rottlerin was mediated by β-glucosidase activation and exosome/microvesicle release via the AMPK pathway. Rottlerin consumption could represent an additional health benefit in lysosomal deposition diseases.

Abstract
Recent studies have explored the field of extracellular vesicles (EVs), driving an increasing interest in their application to human health. EVs have unique physicochemical traits to participate in intercellular communication, thus fostering the idea of using EVs to yield synergistic, preventive, and therapeutic effects. Many reports have shown that EVs contain natural bioactive compounds, such as lipids, proteins, RNA, and other active components that regulate biological processes, thereby contributing to human health. Therefore, in this review, we comprehensively elucidate various facets of the relationship between EVs and bioactive compounds that modulate EVs contents, including RNAs and proteins, discussing different forms of biological regulation. The use of EVs for cargo-loading bioactive compounds to exert biological functions and methods to load bioactive compounds into EVs are also discussed. This review highlighted the effect of EV-delivered bioactive compounds on several therapeutic mechanisms and applications, providing new insight into nutrition and pharmacology.

Curcumin prevents proteins expression changes of oxidative phosphorylation, cellular stress response, and lipid metabolism proteins in liver of mice fed a high-fructose diet. J Proteomics 2022; 263:104595. [PMID: 35490921 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2022.104595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 04/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Increased fructose consumption has been associated with the development of metabolic diseases due to the modification in protein expression, altering metabolic and signaling pathways. Curcumin is a natural compound with a regulatory effect on genes and metabolic pathways. To identify the fructose-induced protein expression changes and the effect of curcumin on the change of protein expression in the liver of mice fed a standard diet and a high fructose diet, to elucidate the global role of curcumin. Four groups (n = 4/group) of male mice (C57BL6J) of six-weeks-old were formed. One group received a standard diet (C); another received curcumin at 0.75% w/w in the feed (C + C); one more received 30% w/v fructose in drinking water (F); and one group received 30% w/v fructose in drinking water and 0.75% w/w curcumin in food (F + C); for 15 weeks. Proteomic analysis was performed by LC-MS/MS, using the label-free technique with the MaxQuant programs for identification and Perseus for expression change analysis. Differentially expressed proteins (fold change ≥1.5 and p < 0.5) were analyzed by gene ontology and KEGG. A total of 1047 proteins were identified, of which 113 changed their expression in mice fed fructose, compared to the control group, and curcumin modified the expression of 64 proteins in mice fed fructose and curcumin compared to mice that only received fructose. Curcumin prevented the change of expression of 13 proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation (NDUFB8, NDUFB3, and ATP5L) in the cellular response to stress (PSMA5, HIST1H1D) and lipid metabolism (THRSP, DGAT1, ECI1, and ACOT13). Curcumin in mice fed the standard diet increased the expression of proteins related to oxidative phosphorylation, ribosomes, and PPAR pathways. In addition to fructose, increased expression of proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation, ribosomes, lipid metabolism, and carbon metabolism. However, curcumin prevented expression change in 13 hepatic proteins of fructose-fed mice involved in oxidative phosphorylation, cellular stress response, and lipid metabolism. SIGNIFICANCE: Curcumin is a natural compound with a regulatory effect on proteins and metabolic pathways. So, curcumin prevents the change of expression in 13 hepatic proteins of fructose-fed mice involved in oxidative phosphorylation, cellular stress response and lipid metabolism, as a supplement with protector activity on fructose-induced toxic effects.

[PMID: 35324679 PMCID: PMC8954241 DOI: 10.3390/toxins14030182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Revised: 02/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Food safety is related to the national economy and people’s livelihood. Fumonisins are widely found in animal feed, feed raw materials, and human food. This can not only cause economic losses in animal husbandry but can also have carcinogenicity or teratogenicity and can be left in animal meat, eggs, and milk which may enter the human body and pose a serious threat to human health. Although there are many strategies to prevent fumonisins from entering the food chain, the traditional physical and chemical methods of mycotoxin removal have some disadvantages, such as an unstable effect, large nutrient loss, impact on the palatability of feed, and difficulty in mass production. As a safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly detoxification technology, biological detoxification attracts more and more attention from researchers and is gradually becoming an accepted technique. This work summarizes the toxic mechanism of fumonisins and highlights the advances of fumonisins in the detoxification of biological antioxidants, antagonistic microorganisms, and degradation mechanisms. Finally, the future challenges and focus of the biological control and degradation of fumonisins are discussed.

Abstract
Mycotoxins are metabolites produced by fungi. The widespread contamination of food and feed by mycotoxins is a global food safety problem and a serious threat to people's health. Most food-borne mycotoxins have strong hepatotoxicity. However, no effective methods have been found to prevent or treat Mycotoxin- Induced Liver Injury (MILI) in clinical and animal husbandry. In this paper, the molecular mechanisms and potential anti-MILI medicines of six food-borne MILI are reviewed, and their targets are predicted by network toxicology, which provides a theoretical basis for further study of the toxicity mechanism of MILI and the development of effective strategies to manage MILI-related health problems in the future and accelerate the development of food safety.

Abstract
Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that in recent years have received special attention for their regulatory functions in numerous biological processes. Recent evidence suggests a correlation between the composition of exosomes in body fluids and the progression of some disorders, such as cancer, diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases. In consequence, numerous studies have been performed to evaluate the composition of these vesicles, aiming to develop new biomarkers for diagnosis and to find novel therapeutic targets. On their part, lipids represent one of the most important components of exosomes, with important structural and regulatory functions during exosome biogenesis, release, targeting and cellular uptake. Therefore, exosome lipidomics has emerged as an innovative discipline for the discovery of novel lipid species with biomedical applications. This review summarizes the current knowledge about exosome lipids and their roles in exosome biology and intercellular communication. Furthermore, it presents the state-of-the-art analytical procedures used in exosome lipidomics while emphasizing how this emerging discipline is providing new insights for future applications of exosome lipids in biomedicine.

Abstract
The use of exosomes in clinical settings is progressively becoming a reality, as clinical trials testing exosomes for diagnostic and therapeutic applications are generating remarkable interest from the scientific community and investors. Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles secreted by all cell types playing intercellular communication roles in health and disease by transferring cellular cargoes such as functional proteins, metabolites and nucleic acids to recipient cells. An in-depth understanding of exosome biology is therefore essential to ensure clinical development of exosome based investigational therapeutic products. Here we summarise the most up-to-date knowkedge about the complex biological journey of exosomes from biogenesis and secretion, transport and uptake to their intracellular signalling. We delineate the major pathways and molecular players that influence each step of exosome physiology, highlighting the routes of interest, which will be of benefit to exosome manipulation and engineering. We highlight the main controversies in the field of exosome research: their adequate definition, characterisation and biogenesis at plasma membrane. We also delineate the most common identified pitfalls affecting exosome research and development. Unravelling exosome physiology is key to their ultimate progression towards clinical applications.
