Resveratrol inhibits calcium oxalate crystal growth, reduces adhesion to renal cells and induces crystal internalization into the cells, but promotes crystal aggregation. Curr Res Food Sci 2024; 8:100740. [PMID: 38694557 PMCID: PMC11061250 DOI: 10.1016/j.crfs.2024.100740] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Resveratrol is a natural phenolic compound that belongs to stilbenoid group found in diverse plants. Health benefits and therapeutic potentials of resveratrol have been widely recognized in various diseases. In kidney stone disease, it can alleviate oxalate-induced hyperproduction of free radicals in renal epithelial cells. Nevertheless, its direct effects on calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal, which is the major stone component, remained unclear. This study therefore addressed the direct effects of resveratrol (at 1, 10 or 100 μM) on each step of CaOx kidney stone formation. The results revealed that resveratrol had no significant effects on CaOx crystallization. However, resveratrol significantly decreased CaOx crystal growth and adhesion to renal epithelial cells at all concentrations, and induced crystal internalization into the cells (a process related to crystal degradation by endolysosomes) in a concentration-dependent manner. On the other hand, resveratrol promoted crystal aggregation. These data indicate that resveratrol serves as a dual modulator on CaOx stone formation. While it inhibits CaOx stone development by reducing crystal growth and adhesion to renal cells and by inducing crystal internalization into the cells, resveratrol promotes crystal aggregation, which is one of the mechanisms leading to kidney stone formation.

Different cellular and molecular responses of Bovine milk phagocytes to persistent and transient strains of Streptococcus uberis causing mastitis. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0295547. [PMID: 38206970 PMCID: PMC10783761 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0295547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Streptococcus uberis is frequently isolated from milk collected from dairy cows with mastitis. According to the host's immunity, bacterial virulence, and their interaction, infection with some strains can induce persistent subclinical inflammation, while infection with others induces severe inflammation and transient mastitis. This study compared the inflammatory response of milk-isolated white blood cells (mWBCs) to persistent and transient S. uberis strains. Quarter milk samples were collected aseptically for bacterial culture from all lactating cows once a week over a 10-week period. A transient and noncapsular strain with a 1-week intramammary infection duration was selected from this herd, while a persistent and capsular S. uberis strain with an intramammary infection longer than 2 months from our previous study was selected based on an identical pulse field gel electrophoresis pattern during the IMI episode. Cellular and molecular responses of mWBCs were tested, and the data were analyzed using repeated analysis of variance. The results showed a higher response in migration, reactive oxygen species generation, and bacterial killing when cells were stimulated with transient S. uberis. In contrast, the persistent strain led to increased neutrophil extracellular trap release. This study also highlighted several important molecular aspects of mWBCs. Gene expression analyses by real-time RT-PCR revealed a significant elevation in the expression of Toll-like receptors (TLR-1, TLR-2, TLR-6) and proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha or TNF-α) with the transient strain. Additionally, Streptococcus uberis capsule formation might contribute to the capability of these strains to induce different immune responses. Altogether, these results focus on the immune function of activated mWBCs which demonstrate that a transient strain can elicit a stronger local immune response and, subsequently, lead to rapid recovery from mastitis.

Exploring the distinct immunological reactions of bovine neutrophils towards major and minor pathogens responsible for mastitis. Int J Vet Sci Med 2023; 11:106-120. [PMID: 37841527 PMCID: PMC10569347 DOI: 10.1080/23144599.2023.2262250] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Bovine mastitis is primarily caused by a group of bacteria known as Staphylococcus and Streptococcus. However, additional types of bacteria, such as bovine non-aureus staphylococci and mammaliicocci (NASM) as well as lactic acid bacteria (LAB), are considered minor pathogens and have less impact on cows. Modulating bovine neutrophil activities and gene expressions in response to bacterial stimuli prompted the cells to execute effector functions to combat udder infections. Although neutrophils can manage major mastitis-causing bacteria, this strategy has not been tested against minor pathogens, i.e. NASM, Weissella spp. Our main objective was to investigate how neutrophils interacted with major and minor pathogens during in vitro bacterial stimulation. The results reveal that neutrophils performed offensive duties regardless of the type of bacteria encountered. Neutrophils generated high levels of reactive oxygen species, efficiently phagocytosed both types of bacteria, and facilitated extracellular killing by releasing NET structures against all bacteria. In addition, neutrophils migrated preferentially towards the majors rather than the minors, although myeloperoxidase (MPO) degranulation did not differ substantially across bacteria. Furthermore, the killing capacity of neutrophils was not dependent on any particular bacterium. The correlation of effector functions is intimately linked to the up-regulation of genes associated with the above functions, except for IL6, which was down-regulated. Furthermore, neutrophil apoptosis can be modulated by altering apoptosis-associated genes in response to harmful stimuli. These findings provide valuable information on how neutrophils react to major and minor mastitis-causing bacteria. However, future research should explore the interplay between minor pathogens and the host's responses.

Quercetin alleviates gliotoxin-induced duckling tissue injury by inhibiting oxidative stress, inflammation and increasing heterophil extracellular traps release. Food Chem Toxicol 2023; 176:113748.

Abstract
Aspergillus fumigatus causes aspergillosis with high morbidity and mortality in the duck industry. As a vital virulence factor produced by A. fumigatus, gliotoxin (GT) is widely present in food and feed, threatening duck industry and human health. Quercetin is a polyphenol flavonoid compound from natural plants with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant functions. However, the effects of quercetin on ducklings with GT poisoning are unknown. The model of ducklings with GT poisoning was established, and the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of quercetin on ducklings with GT poisoning were investigated. Ducklings were divided into control, GT, and quercetin groups. A model of GT (2.5 mg/kg) poisoning in ducklings was successfully established. Quercetin protected GT-induced liver and kidney functions and alleviated GT-induced alveolar wall thickening in lungs, cell fragmentation, and inflammatory cell infiltration in liver and kidney. Quercetin decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) and increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) after GT treatment. Quercetin significantly reduced GT-induced mRNA expression levels of inflammatory factors. Furthermore, quercetin increased GT-reduced heterophil extracellular traps (HETs) in serum. These results indicated that quercetin protected ducklings against GT poisoning by inhibiting oxidative stress, inflammation and increasing HETs release, which confirms the potential applicability of quercetin in treating GT-induced duckling poisoning.

Abstract
Fumonisin B1 (FB1) is a common mycotoxin contamination in agricultural commodities being considered as a significant risk to human and livestock health, while the mechanism of FB1 immunotoxicity are less understood, especially in chicken. Given that extracellular traps as a novel defense mechanism of leukocytes play an important role against foreign matters, in this study we aimed to investigate the effects of FB1 on chicken heterophil extracellular traps (HETs) formation. Our result showed that FB1 induced HETs release in chicken heterophils observed via immunostaining, and it was concentration-dependent during 10 to 40 μM. Moreover, in 40 μM FB1-exposed chicken heterophils, reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was increased, while catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity and glutathione (GSH) content were decreased. Simultaneously, FB1 (40 μM) activated ERK and p38 MAPK signaling pathways via increasing the phosphorylation level of ERK and p38 proteins. However, pretreatment of SB202190, U0126, and diphenyleneiodonium chloride (DPI) did not change FB1-triggered ROS production and HETs formation, suggesting FB1-induced HETs was a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, p38, and extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) signaling pathways-independent process. Inhibition of peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) enzyme and P2 × 1 receptor showed their vital role in 40 μM FB1-triggered HETs. This study reported for the first time that 40 μM FB1 induced the release of HETs in heterophils, and it was related to ROS production, PAD4, and P2 × 1, but was independent of NADPH oxidase, p38 and ERK signaling pathways, which might provide a whole novel perspective of perceiving and understanding the role of FB1 in immunotoxicity.

Abstract
Herbal phytochemicals featuring active ingredients including quercetin and curcumin have shown potential in treating human and animal diseases. The current study investigated their potential function in vitro for host immunomodulation associated with Streptococcus agalactiae subclinical bovine mastitis via milk-isolated neutrophils. Our results showed a positive influence on cellular migration, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, phagocytosis, and bacterial killing as well as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) release. This study also highlighted several important molecular aspects of quercetin and curcumin in milk-isolated neutrophils. Gene expression analyses by RT-PCR revealed significant changes in the expression of proinflammatory cytokines (IL1B, IL6, and TNF), ROS (CYBA), phagocytosis (LAMP1), and migration (RAC). The expression levels of apoptotic genes or proteins in either pro-apoptosis (CASP3 and FAS) or anti-apoptosis (BCL2, BCL2L1, and CFLAR) were significantly manipulated by the effects of either quercetin or curcumin. A principal component analysis (PCA) identified the superior benefit of quercetin supplementation for increasing both cellular and molecular functions in combating bacterial mastitis. Altogether, this study showed the existing and potential benefits of these test compounds; however, they should be explored further via in vivo studies.

Abstract
The importance of gut health in animal welfare and wellbeing is undisputable. The intestinal microbiota plays an essential role in the metabolic, nutritional, physiological, and immunological processes of animals. Therefore, the rapid development of dietary supplements to improve gut functions and homeostasis is imminent. Recent studies have uncovered the beneficial effects of dietary supplements on the immune response, microbiota, gut homeostasis, and intestinal health. The application of citrulline (a functional gut biomarker) and quercetin (a known potent flavonoid) to promote gut functions has gained considerable interest as both bioactive substances possess anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and immunomodulatory properties. Research has demonstrated that both citrulline and quercetin can mediate gut activities by combating disruptions to the intestinal integrity and alterations to the gut microbiota. In addition, citrulline and quercetin play crucial roles in maintaining intestinal immune tolerance and gut health. However, the synergistic benefits which these dietary supplements (citrulline and quercetin) may afford to simultaneously promote gut functions remain to be explored. Therefore, this review summarizes the modulatory effects of citrulline and quercetin on the intestinal integrity and gut microbiota, and further expounds on their potential synergistic roles to attenuate intestinal inflammation and promote gut health.
