Advanced glycation end products promote the progression of endometrial cancer via activating the RAGE/CHKA/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Carcinogenesis 2025; 46:bgae059. [PMID: 39180262 DOI: 10.1093/carcin/bgae059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 07/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/22/2024] [Indexed: 08/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Endometrial cancer (EC) is a common malignant tumor that is closely associated with metabolic disorders such as diabetes and obesity. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are complex polymers formed by the reaction of reducing sugars with the amino groups of biomacromolecules, mediating the occurrence and development of many chronic metabolic diseases. Recent research has demonstrated that the accumulation of AGEs can affect the tumor microenvironment, metabolism, and signaling pathways, thereby affecting the malignant progression of tumors. However, the mechanism by which AGEs affect EC is unclear. Our research aimed to investigate how AGEs promote the development of EC through metabolic pathways and to explore their potential underlying mechanisms. Our experimental results demonstrated that AGEs upregulated the choline metabolism mediated by choline kinase alpha (CHKA) through the receptor for advanced glycation end products, activating the PI3K/AKT pathway and enhancing the malignant biological behavior of EC cells. Virtual screening and molecular dynamics simulation revealed that timosaponin A3 could target CHKA to inhibit AGE-induced progression of EC and that a newly discovered CHKA inhibitor could be a novel targeted inhibitor for the treatment of EC. This study provides new therapeutic strategies and contributes to the treatment of EC.

Abstract
The complementary intervention to modulate diabetes mellitus (DM) metabolism has recently brought the global attention, since DM has become among the global burden diseases. Where, several related pathways elevate the production of superoxide in consequences. For example, the flux of glycation-derived end products (AGEs) could lead to the deactivation of insulin signaling pathways. In that context, many vitamins and phytochemicals in natural sources have high antioxidant impacts that reduce oxidative stress and cell damages. These chemicals could be applied as bioactive antidiabetic agents. Their mode of actions could be from regulating the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) which cause several pro-inflammatory pathways related to the oxidative stress (OS) and DM. Besides, they have a great potential to control the epigenetic mutations and hyperglycemia and help in back the blood glucose to the normal level. Therefore, the current review addresses the important role of natural functional antioxidants in DM management and its association with its OS complications.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) play a role in the onset/progression of lifestyle-related diseases (LSRD), suggesting that the suppression of AGE-induced effects can be exploited to prevent and treat LSRD. However, AGEs have a variety of structures with different biological effects. Glyceraldehyde (GA) is an intermediate of glucose, and fructose metabolism and GA-derived AGEs (GA-AGEs) have been associated with LSRD, leading to the concept of toxic AGEs (TAGE). Elevated blood TAGE levels have been implicated in the onset/progression of LSRD; therefore, the measurement of TAGE levels may enable disease prediction at an early stage. Moreover, recent studies have revealed the structures and degradation pathways of TAGE. Herein, we provide an overview of the research on TAGE. The TAGE theory provides novel insights into LSRD and is expected to elucidate new targets for many diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the association between the Oxidative Balance Score (OBS), which represents the balance of multiple oxidative stress-related dietary and lifestyle exposures, and the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS). METHODS A population-based cross-sectional study design was adopted and 16,850 participants in NHANES database were included in the statistics analysis stage. The OBS was constructed by combining information from 20 a priori selected pro- and antioxidant factors. Weighted logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to estimate the association between OBS and MetS. RESULTS Participants in the highest OBS quartile, indicating low oxidative stress (OS) levels, exhibited a significantly lower risk of MetS (odds Ratio [OR] = 0.55, 95% confidence Interval [CI]: 0.47-0.64) compared to the lowest quartile. Specifically, higher OBS was inversely associated with abdominal obesity (OR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.54-0.69), hypertension (OR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.58-0.83), elevated triglycerides (OR = 0.68, 95% CI: 0.57-0.82), low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels (OR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.50-0.70) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels (OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.62-0.88). The observed inverse association between OBS and hypertension or FBG levels appeared to primarily influenced by BMI. The association between dietary OBS intervals and elevated FBG levels was not statistically significant in men, whereas the risk was lower by 25% in women. CONCLUSIONS A higher OBS, representing a balance of multiple oxidative stress-related dietary and lifestyle exposures, is associated with a lower risk of MetS. Therefore, adhering to an antioxidant diet and lifestyle may help prevent the occurrence of metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Protein glycation closely intertwines with the pathogenesis of various diseases, sparking a growing interest in exploring natural antiglycation agents. Herein, high-purity betacyanins (betanin and phyllocactin) derived from Hylocereus polyrhizus peel were studied for their antiglycation potential using an in vitro bovine serum albumin (BSA)-glucose model. Notably, betacyanins outperformed aminoguanidine, a recognized antiglycation agent, in inhibiting glycation product formation across different stages, especially advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Interestingly, phyllocactin displayed stronger antiglycation activity than betanin. Subsequent mechanistic studies employing molecular docking analysis and fluorescence quenching assay unveiled that betacyanins interact with BSA endothermically and spontaneously, with hydrophobic forces playing a dominant role. Remarkably, phyllocactin demonstrated higher binding affinity and stability to BSA than betanin. Furthermore, the incorporation of betacyanins into bread dose-dependently suppressed AGEs formation during baking and shows promise for inhibiting in vivo glycation process post-consumption. Overall, this study highlights the substantial potential of betacyanins as natural antiglycation agents.

Abstract
Diabetic encephalopathy (DE) is a severe complication that occurs in the central nervous system (CNS) and leads to cognitive impairment. DE involves various pathophysiological processes, and its pathogenesis is still unclear. This review summarised current research on the pathogenesis of diabetic encephalopathy, which involves neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, iron homoeostasis, blood-brain barrier disruption, altered gut microbiota, insulin resistance, etc. Among these pathological mechanisms, neuroinflammation has been focused on. This paper summarises some of the molecular mechanisms involved in neuroinflammation, including the Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR), Lipocalin-2 (LCN-2), Pyroptosis, Advanced Glycosylation End Products (AGEs), and some common pro-inflammatory factors. In addition, we discuss recent advances in the study of potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of DE against neuroinflammation. The current research on the pathogenesis of DE is progressing slowly, and more research is needed in the future. Further study of neuroinflammation as a mechanism is conducive to the discovery of more effective treatments for DE in the future.

Abstract
Excess consumption of sweetened beverages is associated with a global rise in metabolic diseases. Tamarind and partially-hydrolyzed agave syrup have potential for developing healthier beverages. Our objective was to develop a functional beverage using these ingredients (PH-AS-B). We also evaluate shelf-life stability (physicochemical, microbiological, and antioxidant properties) and health effects in C57BL/6 mice compared with tamarind beverages sweetened with glucose or fructose. Optimal tamarind extraction conditions were a 1:10 ratio (g pulp/mL water) and boiling for 30 min, and the resulting beverage had a shelf life of two months at 4 °C. Non-volatile metabolites were identified using HPLC/MS. PH-AS-B was associated with decreased blood cholesterol (5%) and triglyceride (20-35%) concentrations in healthy mice as well as lower lipid (82%) concentrations and evidence of protein oxidation (42%) in the liver, compared with glucose- and fructose-sweetened tamarind beverages. In conclusion, PH-AS-B was stable and associated with beneficial metabolic properties in healthy mice.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcer is a serious complication of diabetes. Excessive accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is one of the critical pathogenic factors in postponing diabetic wound healing. The main pathogenic mechanisms of AGEs include inducing cellular dysfunction, prolonging inflammatory response, increasing oxidative stress and reducing endogenous nitric oxide (NO) production. Combination therapy of blocking the deleterious effects of AGEs and supplementing exogenous NO is hypothesized to promote diabetic wound healing. Here, we presented nanoparticles/hydrogel composite dressings to co-delivery rosiglitazone and S-nitroso glutathione into the wound bed. The designed co-delivery system augmented the survival of fibroblasts, reduced oxidative stress levels, reversed the change of mitochondrial membrane potential and decreased the proinflammatory cytokine expression. Local sustained release of therapeutic agents significantly improved the wound healing of diabetic rats including increasing the wound closure rate, alleviating inflammation, promoting collagen fiber production and angiogenesis. Our finding indicated this local deliver strategy aimed at inhibiting the toxic effects of AGEs has great clinical potential for diabetic wound treatment.

Abstract
Protein glycation in human body is closely linked to the onset/progression of diabetes associated complications. These glycated proteins are commonly known as advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Recent literature has also highlighted the involvement of AGEs in other non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular, cancer, and Alzheimer's diseases and explored the impact of plant metabolites on AGEs formation. However, the significance of endophytic metabolites against AGEs has recently garnered attention but has not been thoroughly summarized thus far. Therefore, the objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the importance of endophytic metabolites in combating AGEs under NCDs conditions. Additionally, this review aims to elucidate the processes of AGEs formation, absorption, metabolism, and their harmful effects. Collectively, endophytic metabolites play a crucial role in modulating signaling pathways and enhancing the digestibility properties of gut microbiota (GM) by targeting on AGEs/RAGE (receptor for AGEs) axis. Furthermore, these metabolites exhibit anti-AGEs activities similar to those derived from host plants, but at a lower cost and higher production rate. The use of endophytes as a source of such metabolites offers a risk-free and sustainable approach that holds substantial potential for the treatment and management of NCDs.

[PMID: 38608487 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155589] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Food products undergo a pronounced Maillard reaction (MR) during the cooking process, leading to the generation of substantial quantities of Maillard reaction products (MRPs). Within this category, advanced glycation end products (AGEs), acrylamide (AA), and heterocyclic amines (HAs) have been implicated as potential risk factors associated with the development of diseases. PURPOSE To explore the effects of polyphenols, a class of bioactive compounds found in plants, on the inhibition of MRPs and related diseases. Previous research has mainly focused on their interactions with proteins and their effects on the gastrointestinal tract and other diseases, while fewer studies have examined their inhibitory effects on MRPs. The aim is to offer a scientific reference for future research investigating the inhibitory role of polyphenols in the MR. METHODS The databases PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and The Cochrane Library were searched for appropriate research. RESULTS Polyphenols have the potential to inhibit the formation of harmful MRPs and prevent related diseases. The inhibition of MRPs by polyphenols primarily occurs through the following mechanisms: trapping α-dicarbonyl compounds, scavenging free radicals, chelating metal ions, and preserving protein structure. Simultaneously, polyphenols exhibit the ability to impede the onset and progression of related diseases such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease through diverse pathways. CONCLUSION This review presents that inhibition of polyphenols on Maillard reaction products and their induction of related diseases. Further research is imperative to enhance our comprehension of additional pathways affected by polyphenols and to fully uncover their potential application value in inhibiting MRPs.

Abstract
Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs), with their prolonged half-life in the human body, are emerging as potent diagnostic indicators. Early intervention studies, focusing on AGE cross-link breakers, have shown encouraging results in heart failure patients, paving the way for disease progression monitoring and therapy effectiveness evaluation. AGEs are the byproducts of a non-enzymatic reaction where sugars interact with proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. These compounds possess the power to alter numerous biological processes, ranging from disrupting molecular conformation and promoting cross-linking to modifying enzyme activity, reducing clearance, and impairing receptor recognition. The damage inflicted by AGEs through the stimulation of intracellular signaling pathways is associated with the onset of chronic diseases across various organ systems. This review consolidates the characteristics of AGEs and the challenges posed by their expression in diverse physiological and pathological states. Furthermore, it highlights the clinical relevance of AGEs and the latest research breakthroughs aimed at reducing AGE accumulation.

Early Stages of Ex Vivo Collagen Glycation Disrupt the Cellular Interaction and Its Remodeling by Mesenchymal Stem Cells-Morphological and Biochemical Evidence. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:5795.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), pivotal for tissue repair, utilize collagen to restore structural integrity in damaged tissue, preserving its organization through concomitant remodeling. The non-enzymatic glycation of collagen potentially compromises MSC communication, particularly upon advancing the process, underlying various pathologies such as late-stage diabetic complications and aging. However, an understanding of the impact of early-stage collagen glycation on MSC interaction is lacking. This study examines the fate of in vitro glycated rat tail collagen (RTC) upon exposure to glucose for 1 or 5 days in contact with MSCs. Utilizing human adipose tissue-derived MSCs (ADMSCs), we demonstrate their significantly altered interaction with glycated collagen, characterized morphologically by reduced cell spreading, diminished focal adhesions formation, and attenuated development of the actin cytoskeleton. The morphological findings were confirmed by ImageJ 1.54g morphometric analysis with the most significant drop in the cell spreading area (CSA), from 246.8 μm2 for the native collagen to 216.8 μm2 and 163.7 μm2 for glycated ones, for 1 day and 5 days, respectively, and a similar trend was observed for cell perimeter 112.9 μm vs. 95.1 μm and 86.2 μm, respectively. These data suggest impaired recognition of early glycated collagen by integrin receptors. Moreover, they coincide with the reduced fibril-like reorganization of adsorbed FITC-collagen (indicating impaired remodeling) and a presumed decreased sensitivity to proteases. Indeed, confirmatory assays reveal diminished FITC-collagen degradation for glycated samples at 1 day and 5 days by attached cells (22.8 and 30.4%) and reduced proteolysis upon exogenous collagenase addition (24.5 and 40.4%) in a cell-free system, respectively. The mechanisms behind these effects remain uncertain, although differential scanning calorimetry confirms subtle structural/thermodynamic changes in glycated collagen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The non-enzymatic glycation of proteins and their advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are associated with protein transformations such as in the development of diseases and biopharmaceutical storage. The characterization of heavily glycated proteins at the intact level is of high interest as it allows to describe co-occurring protein modifications. However, the high heterogeneity of glycated protein makes this process challenging, and novel methods are required to accomplish this. RESULTS In this study, we investigated two novel LC-HRMS methods to study glycated reference proteins at the intact protein level: low-flow hydrophilic-interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and native size-exclusion chromatography (SEC). Model proteins were exposed to conditions that favored extensive glycation and the formation of AGEs. After glycation, complicated MS spectra were observed, along with a sharply reduced signal response, possibly due to protein denaturation and the formation of aggregates. When using HILIC-MS, the glycated forms of the proteins could be resolved based on the number of reducing monosaccharides. Moreover, some positional glycated isomers were separated. The SEC-MS method under non-denaturing conditions provided insights into glycated aggregates but offered only a limited separation of glycated species based on molar mass. Overall, more than 25 different types of species were observed in both methods, differing in molar mass by 14-162 Da. 19 of these species have not been previously reported. SIGNIFICANCE The proposed strategies show great potential to characterize highly glycated intact proteins from native and denaturing perspectives and provide new opportunities for fast clinical diagnoses and investigating glycation-related diseases.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is characterized by hyperglycemia that makes insulin more prone to glycation and form advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Here, we report the effect of glyoxal (GO) on the formation of AGEs using human insulin as model protein and their structural modifications. The present investigation also reports the anti-AGE potential of Heliotropium bacciferum (Leaf) extracts. The phytochemical analysis of H. bacciferum revealed that free phenolic extract contains higher amount of total phenolic (3901.58 ± 17.06 mg GAE/100 g) and total flavonoid content (30.41 ± 0.32 mg QE/100 g) when compared to bound phenolic extract. Naringin and caffeic acid were identified as the major phenolic ingredients by UPLC-PAD method. Furthermore, bound phenolics extract showed significantly higher DPPH and superoxide radicals scavenging activity (IC50 17.53 ± 0.36 μg/mL and 0.306 ± 0.038 mg/ mL, respectively) (p ≤ 0.05). Besides, the bound phenolics extract also showed significant (p ≤ 0.05) chelating power (IC50 0.063) compared to free phenolic extract. In addition, bound phenolic extract could efficiently trap GO under physiological conditions. Spectroscopic investigation of GO-modified insulin illustrated changes in the tertiary structure of insulin and formation of AGEs. On the other hand, no significant alteration in secondary structure was observed by far UV-CD measurement. Furthermore, H. bacciferum extract inhibited α-glucosidase activity and AGEs formation implicated in diabetes. Molecular docking analysis depicted that GO bind with human insulin in both chains and forms a stable complex with TYR A: 14, LEU A:13, ASN B:3, SER A:12 amino acid residues with binding energy of - 2.53 kcal/mol. However, caffeic acid binds to ASN A:18 and GLU A:17 residues of insulin with lower binding energy of -4.67 kcal/mol, suggesting its higher affinity towards human insulin compared to GO. Our finding showed promising activity of H. bacciferum against AGEs and its complications. The major phenolics like caffeic acid, naringin and their derivatives could be exploited for the drug development for management of AGEs in diabetes.

Abstract
Meningiomas are among the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system. Previous research into the meningioma histological appearance, genetic markers, transcriptome and epigenetic landscape has revealed that benign meningiomas significantly differ in their glucose metabolism compared to aggressive lesions. However, a correlation between the systemic glucose metabolism and the metabolism of the tumor hasn't yet been found. We hypothesized that chronic levels of glycaemia (approximated with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)) are different in patients with aggressive and benign meningiomas. The study encompassed 71 patients with de novo intracranial meningiomas, operated on in three European hospitals, two in Croatia and one in Spain. Our results show that patients with WHO grade 2 meningiomas had significantly higher HbA1c values compared to patients with grade 1 lesions (P = 0.0290). We also found a significant number of patients (19/71; 26.7%) being hyperglycemic, harboring all the risks that such a condition entails. Finally, we found a significant correlation between our patients' age and their preoperative HbA1c levels (P = 0.0008, ρ(rho) = 0.388), suggesting that older meningioma patients are at a higher risk of having their glycaemia severely dysregulated. These findings are especially important considering the current routine and wide-spread use of corticosteroids as anti-edematous treatment. Further research in this area could lead to better understanding of meningiomas and have immediate clinical impact.

Abstract
Numerous health hazards have been connected to advanced glycation end products (AGEs). In this investigation, using reaction models including BSA-fructose, BSA- methylglyoxal (MGO), and BSA-glyoxal (GO), we examined the anti-glycation potential of eight different berry species on AGEs formation. Our results indicate that black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa) exhibited the highest inhibitory effects, with IC50 values of 0.35 ± 0.02, 0.45 ± 0.03, and 0.48 ± 0.11 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, our findings suggest that black chokeberry inhibits AGE formation by binding to BSA, which alleviates the conformation alteration, prevents protein cross-linking, and traps reactive α-dicarbonyls to form adducts. Notably, three major polyphenols, including cyanidin-3-O-galactoside, cyanidin-3-O-arabinoside, and procyanidin B2 from black chokeberry, showed remarkably inhibitory effect on MGO/GO capture, and new adducts formation was verified through LC-MS/MS analysis. In summary, our research provides a theoretical basis for the use of berries, particularly black chokeberry, as natural functional food components with potential anti-glycation effects.

Abstract
Collagens are fundamental constituents of the extracellular matrix and are the most abundant proteins in mammals. Collagens belong to the family of fibrous or fiber-forming proteins that self-assemble into fibrils that define their mechanical properties and biological functions. Up to now, 28 members of the collagen superfamily have been recognized. Collagen biosynthesis occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum, where specific post-translational modification-glycosylation-is also carried out. The glycosylation of collagens is very specific and adds β-d-galactopyranose and β-d-Glcp-(1→2)-d-Galp disaccharide through β-O-linkage to hydroxylysine. Several glycosyltransferases, namely COLGALT1, COLGALT2, LH3, and PGGHG glucosidase, were associated the with glycosylation of collagens, and recently, the crystal structure of LH3 has been solved. Although not fully understood, it is clear that the glycosylation of collagens influences collagen secretion and the alignment of collagen fibrils. A growing body of evidence also associates the glycosylation of collagen with its functions and various human diseases. Recent progress in understanding collagen glycosylation allows for the exploitation of its therapeutic potential and the discovery of new agents. This review will discuss the relevant contributions to understanding the glycosylation of collagens. Then, glycosyltransferases involved in collagen glycosylation, their structure, and catalytic mechanism will be surveyed. Furthermore, the involvement of glycosylation in collagen functions and collagen glycosylation-related diseases will be discussed.

Abstract
Secondary metabolites produced by myxobacterial genera are often characterized as diverse molecules with unique structural properties which drove us to search for myxobacterial source of anti-diabetic drug discovery. In the present study, from 80 soil samples, out of sixty-five observed isolates, 30 and 16 were purified as Myxococcus and non-Myxococcus, respectively. Isolated strains taxonomically belonged to the genera Myxococcus, Corallococcus and Cystobacter, Archangium, Nanocystis, and Sorangium, and some could not be attributed. Secondary metabolites of selected non-Myxococcus isolates extracted by the liquid-liquid method showed that the myxobacterium UTMC 4530 demonstrated the highest inhibition on the formation of carbonyl group and fructosamine, respectively. In addition, it showed 23% and 15.8% inhibitory activity on α-glucosides and α-amylase compared to acarbose (23%, 18%), respectively. The extract of strain UTMC 4530 showed 35% induction effect on glucose adsorption while showing no radical scavenging activity and no toxic effect on HRBC lysis and HepG2 in cytotoxicity assays. The strain UTMC 4530 (ON808962), with the multiple antidiabetic activity, showed 87.3% similarity to Corallococcus llansteffanensis which indicates its affiliation to a new genus. The results of this study revealed that secondary metabolites produced by strain UTMC 4530 can be considered a promising source to find new therapeutic and pharmaceutical applications perhaps a multi-mechanism anti-diabetic compound.

Hajizadeh-Sharafabad F, Shojaei-Zarghani S, Sharifi-Zahabi E, Gerami F, Pashaei MR. Associations of circulating advanced glycation end products and their soluble receptors with cancer risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. Glycoconj J 2024; 41:35-46. [PMID: 38498243 DOI: 10.1007/s10719-024-10147-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024]
Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGE) in complex with their receptors (RAGE) cause a chronic inflammatory state in the body, which is the major mechanism in cancer development. This study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on the observational studies investigating the association between AGEs / sRAGE and cancer incidence. The PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were comprehensively searched to identify papers focused on the associations of sRAGE and AGEs with cancer incidence up to May 2023. Eight studies with a total of 7690 participants were included in the analysis to evaluate the association between circulating sRAGE and cancer incidence. The results indicated that circulating sRAGE (per 100 ng/L) had a significant inverse association with cancer incidence (RR 0.977; 95% CI 0.956, 0.999; p = 0.036; I 2 = 73.3%). The association between AGEs and cancer incidence was evaluated in 8 studies with a total of 3718 individuals. Serum concentrations of AGEs (per 100 µg/L) were not associated with the risk of cancer incidence (RR 0.988; 95% CI 0.974, 1.002; p = 0.08; I2 = 78.8%). Our findings revealed that a higher circulating sRAGE may have a protective effect against cancer incidence.

Akbari V, Ghobadi S. Evaluation of the effect of phenylpropanoids on the binding of heparin to human serum albumin and glycosylated human serum albumin concerning anticoagulant activity: A comparison study. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 257:128732. [PMID: 38092116 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128732] [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: 07/03/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/08/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
The nonenzymatic advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and the accumulation of AGEs are the two main factors associated with the long-term pathogenesis of diabetes. Human serum albumin (HSA) as the most abundant serum protein has a higher fortuity to be modified by nonenzymatic glycation. In this study, the interaction of three phenylpropanoids (caffeic acid (Caf), p-coumaric acid (Cou), and cinnamic acid (Cin)) toward HSA and glycosylated HSA (gHSA) was analyzed by multiple spectroscopic techniques combined with molecular docking. The formation of fibrils in HSA and gHSA was confirmed by the Thioflavin T (ThT) assay. The phenylpropanoids have shown anti-fibrillation properties in vitro. The obtained thermodynamic parameters indicated that hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces are the main forces in the binding interaction, and the quenching mechanism of the protein fluorescence is static. Molecular docking results, as well as the in vitro results, showed that Caf, Cou, and Cin exhibit more stable interactions with HSA, respectively. In addition, molecular docking analysis showed that Caf and Cou interact well with K199. Given the critical role of K199 in HSA glycosylation in diabetic patients, this process inhibits the interaction of stabilizer compounds and thus accelerates gHSA aggregation.

Abstract
The biological mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2DM)-related periodontitis remain unclear. This cross-sectional study evaluated the distinctive transcriptomic changes between tissues with periodontal health and with periodontitis in patients with T2DM. In this cross-sectional study, whole transcriptome sequencing was performed on gingival biopsies from non-periodontitis and periodontitis tissues from non-diabetic and diabetic patients. A differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) assessed the genes and signaling pathways associated with T2DM-related periodontitis. Immunohistochemistry was performed to validate selected DEGs possibly involved in T2DM-related periodontitis. Four hundred and twenty and one thousand five hundred and sixty-three DEGs (fold change ≥ 2) were uniquely identified in the diseased tissues of non-diabetic and diabetic patients, respectively. The IPA predicted the activation of Phagosome Formation, Cardiac β-adrenergic, tRNA Splicing, and PI3K/AKT pathways. The IPA also predicted the inhibition of Cholesterol Biosynthesis, Adrenomedullin, and Inositol Phosphate Compounds pathways in T2DM-related periodontitis. Validation of DEGs confirmed changes in protein expression of PTPN2, PTPN13, DHCR24, PIK3R2, CALCRL, IL1RN, IL-6R and ITGA4 in diseased tissues in diabetic subjects. Thus, these preliminary findings indicate that there are specific genes and functional pathways that may be involved in the pathogenesis of T2DM-related periodontitis.

Abstract
While it is well-acknowledged that neurovascular dysfunction in hypertension is tightly associated with accelerated brain aging, we contend that the deleterious effects of hypertension may extend beyond affecting only the arteries. Methylglyoxal (MG) derived from glycolysis, is involved in the accumulation of advanced glycated end products (AGEs), which are the hallmarks of neurodegenerative disorders. Therefore, the present study aims to firstly investigate the role of MG metabolism in the hypertension-accelerated brain aging process. The results of our study indicate that the levels of MG increase with age in both the plasma and hippocampus of SHRs at 12, 16, and 30 weeks old. AGE methylglyoxal-hydro imidazoline-1 (MG-H1) is primarily localized in astrocytes, while its presence was not observed in neurons and microglia within the hypertensive hippocampus. Our observations also suggest that angiotensin II (Ang II) enhances glucose uptake and glycolysis while reducing the expression of Glo1 in cultured astrocytes. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was found to counteract the increase in escape latency and inhibit the activation of the AGEs-RAGE axis in 30-week-old SHRs. NAC decreased Iba-1 immunofluorescence intensity, inhibited the levels of pro-inflammatory markers, and enhanced the abundance of anti-inflammatory markers in the hippocampus of SHRs. Moreover, NAC reduced the immunofluorescence signal of 4HNE and increased the content of GSH and SOD in SHRs. Finally, NAC was observed to inhibit apoptosis in the hippocampus of SHRs. Collectively, we firstly showed the enhanced accumulation of MG in the hypertensive brain, whereas the clearance of MG by NAC treatment mitigated the aging process and attenuated AGEs generation, neuroinflammation, and oxidative damage.

Abstract
Turnera is a genus of plants whose biological activity has been widely studied. The importance of this genus, particularly Turnera diffusa, as a source of treatment for various conditions is evidenced by the large number of new studies that have evaluated its biological activity. Accordingly, the objective of this review was to compile the information published in the last ten years concerning the biological activities reported for Turnera spp. The present work includes 92 publications that evaluate 29 bioactivities and toxicological and genotoxic information on five species of this genus. Among the pharmacological effects reported, the antioxidant, hepatoprotective, neuroprotective, hypoglycemic, and aphrodisiac activities seem more promising. Phytochemicals and standardized plant extracts could offer alternative therapeutic remedies for various diseases. Although several flavonoids, cyanogenic glycosides, monoterpenoids, triterpenoids, and fatty acids have been isolated for Turnera plants, future research should focus on the identification of the main active principles responsible for these pharmacological activities, as well as to perform clinical trials to support the laboratory results.

Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the relationship between the Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) and kidney stone risk using NHANES 2007-2018 data, and to explore potential mechanisms and population-specific effects. Materials and methods: Data from the NHANES 2007-2018 were analyzed. OBS was calculated based on 16 dietary components and 4 lifestyle components. Multivariate logistic regression was employed to investigate the relationship between OBS and kidney stone. Further stratified analyses were conducted to examine the associations across different subgroups. Results: A total of 19,799 participants were included in the study. There was a consistent inverse association between OBS and the risk of kidney stones (OR = 0.97; 95% CI: 0.96-0.99). After dividing the participants into quartiles based on OBS, compared to the lowest quartile of OBS, the risk of kidney stones in the highest quartile of OBS was reduced by 33% (95% CI 0.50-0.89; p = 0.002). This association was consistent across both dietary and lifestyle OBS scores. The protective effect of OBS was notably pronounced among Non-Hispanic white and Other race groups, and among individuals with a higher level of education. However, the association was not significant among individuals with diabetes. Conclusion: A higher OBS, indicating a balance skewed towards antioxidants, is associated with a reduced risk of kidney stones, especially among specific population subgroups. These findings underscore the potential role of oxidative balance in kidney stone pathogenesis and highlight the importance of considering individual and population-specific factors in future research and preventive strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary advanced glycation end products (AGEs) can play an important role in increasing inflammatory factors and oxidative stress as risk factors for cancers. In the present study, we aimed to assess the relationship between dietary AGEs and the risk of breast cancer (BC) in Iranian adult women. METHODS This hospital-based case-control study includes 401 participants aged ≥ 30 years old. The cases group consisted of 134 women diagnosed with histologically confirmed BC. The control group included 267 women enrolled randomly from patients admitted to the same hospitals. Dietary intake information was determined using a validated food frequency questionnaire, and dietary AGEs intake was computed for all participants. Logistic regression models, adjusted for potential confounders, were used to determine the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of BC across tertiles of dietary AGEs. RESULTS The mean ± SD age and body mass index of the study population were 47.92 ± 10.33 years and 29.43 ± 5.51 kg/m2, respectively. The median (interquartile) of dietary AGEs in all individuals was 9251(7450, 11,818) kU/day. After adjusting for age, first pregnancy age, and energy intake, participants in the highest tertile of dietary AGEs intakes had higher odds of BC compared to those in the lowest tertile of dietary AGEs (OR:2.29;95%CI:1.19-4.39, Ptrend:0.012). Additionally, in the multivariable model, after adjusting for age, age at first pregnancy, energy, menopausal status, family history of cancer, anti-inflammatory drug use, Vitamin D supplementation, physical activity, body mass index, number of childbirths, and history of abortion, breastfeeding, and oral contraceptive pills use, the odds of BC were increased across tertiles of dietary AGEs intake (OR: 2.33; 95%CI: 1.18-4.60, Ptrend: 0.017). CONCLUSION The present findings suggest that a diet with high AGEs is associated with a higher likelihood of BC in adult women.

Abstract
From attributing mutations to cancers with the advent of cutting-edge genetic technology in recent decades, to re-searching the age-old theory of intrinsic metabolic shift of cancers (Warburg's glycolysis), the quest for a precise panacea for mainly the metastatic cancers, remains incessant. This review delineates the advanced glycation end product (AGE)-receptor for AGE (RAGE) pathway driven intricate oncogenic cues, budding from the metabolic (glycolytic) reliance of tumour cells, branching into metastatic emergence of malignancies. Strong AGE-RAGE concomitance in metastasis, chemo-resistance and cancer resurgence adversely incite disease progression and patient mortality. At the conjunction of metabolic and metastatic shift of cancers, are the "glycolytically" generated AGEs and AGE-activated RAGE, instigating aberrant molecular pathways, culminating in aggressive malignancies. AGEs as by-products of metabolic insurgence, modify the metabolome, epigenome and microbiome, besides coercing the inter-, intra- and extra-cellular micro-milieu conducive for oncogenic events like epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). AGE-RAGE synergistically elicit ATP surge for surplus energy, autophagy for apoptotic evasion and chemo-resistance, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) for meta-inflammation and angiogenesis, high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) for immune tolerance, S100 proteins for metastasis, and p53 protein attenuation for tumour suppression. AGEs are pronouncedly reported in invasive forms of breast, prostate, colon and pancreatic cancers, higher in patients with cancer than healthy counterparts, and higher in advanced stage than localized phase. Hence, the investigation of person-specific presence of AGEs, soluble RAGE and AGE-activated RAGE can be advocated as impending bio-markers for diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic purposes, to predict cancer risk in patients with diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome as well as general population, to monitor prognosis and metastasis in patients with cancer, and to reckon complications in cancer survivors. Furthermore, clinical reports of exogenous (dietary) and endogenous (internally formed) AGEs in cancer patients, and contemporary clinical trials involving AGE-RAGE axis in cancer are underlined with theranostic implications.

Abstract
Low back pain (LBP) is a leading cause of labour loss and disability worldwide, and it also imposes a severe economic burden on patients and society. Among symptomatic LBP, approximately 40% is caused by intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). IDD is the pathological basis of many spinal degenerative diseases such as disc herniation and spinal stenosis. Currently, the therapeutic approaches for IDD mainly include conservative treatment and surgical treatment, neither of which can solve the problem from the root by terminating the degenerative process of the intervertebral disc (IVD). Therefore, further exploring the pathogenic mechanisms of IDD and adopting targeted therapeutic strategies is one of the current research hotspots. Among the complex pathophysiological processes and pathogenic mechanisms of IDD, oxidative stress is considered as the main pathogenic factor. The delicate balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants is essential for maintaining the normal function and survival of IVD cells. Excessive ROS levels can cause damage to macromolecules such as nucleic acids, lipids, and proteins of cells, affect normal cellular activities and functions, and ultimately lead to cell senescence or death. This review discusses the potential role of oxidative stress in IDD to further understand the pathophysiological processes and pathogenic mechanisms of IDD and provides potential therapeutic strategies for the treatment of IDD.

A pilot study on the comparative evaluation of residual periodontal ligament in extracted teeth of chronic periodontitis patients with and without type 2 diabetes - Vital function of an occult dimension. J Indian Soc Periodontol 2023; 27:492-495. [PMID: 37781325 PMCID: PMC10538510 DOI: 10.4103/jisp.jisp_522_22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 03/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Periodontitis is the most common type of periodontal condition, primarily affecting middle-aged people and resulting in tooth loss; when combined with diabetes, it becomes a debilitating condition. The aim of this study is to compare the residual periodontal ligament length in periodontitis patients with and without diabetes. Materials and Methods The cross-sectional observational study was conducted in the department of periodontics over 5 months. The patients in the study were divided into two groups. Group 1 comprised patients with periodontitis without type 2 diabetes and Group 2 comprised patients with periodontitis with type 2 diabetes. A total of 100 teeth 50 from each group were collected. The teeth were stained, and the Residual Periodontal Ligament (RPL) of all tooth aspects and surfaces to a total of 544 were measured. Two points were identified for measuring the RPL. The first point was from the apex of the tooth and the second point was the highest marking of the stain. The length from these two points was recorded as the RPL. Following which, means from Groups 1 and 2 were calculated to determine the rate of destruction. The average of the values for each tooth was calculated to determine the percentage of RPL in each tooth and surface. The Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the RPL of the teeth surfaces and Group 1 and Group 2 and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results The RPL was higher in nondiabetic patients, with a mean value of 23.66 mm, when compared to diabetic patients, with a mean RPL of 17.05 mm, implying that diabetic patients showed greater periodontal destruction. Buccal tooth surfaces displayed a mean RPL of 4.24 mm and 6.00 mm, lingual/palatal tooth surfaces with 4.02 mm and 5.91 mm, mesial tooth surfaces with 3.82 mm and 5.64 mm, and distal tooth surfaces showed 4.14 mm and 5.67 mm (diabetic and nondiabetic, respectively) with (P < 0.001) found to be statistically significant. Conclusion This study observed that the destruction rate of the periodontal ligament was higher in diabetic teeth than in nondiabetic teeth, implying that patients with metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes influence the response of periodontal tissues to periodontitis and that hyperglycemia impacts the periodontal ligament either directly or indirectly.

Abstract
Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) suffer from oral complications related to oral infections, periodontal diseases, and endodontic lesions. Emerging evidence has revealed the contribution of the epigenetic process as the underlying mechanism of DM complications. DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs are epigenetic regulators that directly affect gene expression. The present review elaborated on the role of epigenetic dysregulation in the etiology of diabetes-related periodontal and endodontic diseases. The narrative review study was prepared using databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Scopus. The formation of glycation products as a result of hyperglycemic condition increases oxidative stress, and elevates chronic inflammatory mediators that could in turn adversely change the cellular environment and alter the epigenetic status. This process contributes to the alteration of regulatory genes expression, leading to the development of diabetes-induced bone complications and impaired odontogenic capacity of pulp. Indeed, epigenetic mechanisms mediate the interaction between gene expression and DM cellular environment. Further investigations on epigenetic factors involved in DM oral complications may provide novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-derived advanced glycation end products (glycer-AGEs) could contribute to colorectal cancer development and progression due to their pro-oxidative and pro-inflammatory properties. However, the association of glycer-AGEs with mortality after colorectal cancer diagnosis has not been previously investigated. Circulating glycer-AGEs were measured by competitive ELISA. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for associations of circulating glycer-AGEs concentrations with CRC-specific and all-cause mortality among 1034 colorectal cancer (CRC) cases identified within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study between 1993 and 2013. During a mean of 48 months of follow-up, 529 participants died (409 from CRC). Glycer-AGEs were statistically significantly positively associated with CRC-specific (HRQ5 vs Q1 = 1.53, 95% CI: 1.04-2.25, Ptrend = .002) and all-cause (HRQ5 vs Q1 = 1.62, 95% CI: 1.16-2.26, Ptrend < .001) mortality among individuals with CRC. There was suggestion of a stronger association between glycer-AGEs and CRC-specific mortality among patients with distal colon cancer (per SD increment: HRproximal colon = 1.02, 95% CI: 0.74-1.42; HRdistal colon = 1.51, 95% CI: 1.20-1.91; Peffect modification = .02). The highest HR was observed among CRC cases in the highest body mass index (BMI) and glycer-AGEs category relative to lowest BMI and glycer-AGEs category for both CRC-specific (HR = 1.78, 95% CI: 1.02-3.01) and all-cause mortality (HR = 2.15, 95% CI: 1.33-3.47), although no statistically significant effect modification was observed. Our study found that prediagnostic circulating glycer-AGEs are positively associated with CRC-specific and all-cause mortality among individuals with CRC. Further investigations in other populations and stratifying by tumor location and BMI are warranted.

Co-Stimulation of AGEs and LPS Induces Inflammatory Mediators through PLCγ1/JNK/NF-κB Pathway in MC3T3-E1 Cells. Cells 2023; 12:1383. [PMID: 37408216 PMCID: PMC10216316 DOI: 10.3390/cells12101383] [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: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 04/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are increased under hyperglycemia in vivo and are associated with the onset of diabetes. According to previous studies, AGEs exacerbate inflammatory diseases. However, the mechanism by which AGEs aggravate osteoblast inflammation remains unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effects of AGEs on the production of inflammatory mediators in MC3T3-E1 cells and the underlying molecular mechanisms. Co-stimulation with AGEs and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was found to increase the mRNA and protein levels of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2), interleukin-1α (IL-1α), S100 calcium-binding protein A9 (S100A9), and the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) compared to no stimulation (untreated control) or individual stimulation with LPS or AGEs. In contrast, the phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor, U73122, inhibited these stimulatory effects. Co-stimulation with AGEs and LPS also increased the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) compared to no stimulation (untreated control) or individual stimulation with LPS or AGE. However, this increase was inhibited by U73122. Co-stimulation with AGEs and LPS-induced phosphorylated phospholipase Cγ1 (p-PLCγ1) and phosphorylated c-Jun N-terminal kinase (p-JNK) expression compared to no stimulation or individual stimulation with LPS or AGEs. U73122 inhibited the effects induced by co-stimulation. siPLCγ1 did not increase the expression of p-JNK and the translocation of NF-κB. Overall, co-stimulation with AGEs and LPS may promote inflammation mediators in MC3T3-E1 cells by activating the nuclear translocation of NF-κB via PLCγ1-JNK activation.

Abstract
Background The relationship between oxidative balance score (OBS) and diabetes remains poorly understood and may be gender-specific. We conducted a cross-sectional study to investigate the complex association between OBS and diabetes among US adults. Methods Overall, 5,233 participants were included in this cross-sectional study. The exposure variable was OBS, composed of scores for 20 dietary and lifestyle factors. Multivariable logistic regression, subgroup analysis, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression were applied to examine the relationship between OBS and diabetes. Results Compared to the lowest OBS quartile group (Q1), the multivariable-adjusted odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI) for the highest OBS quartile group (Q4) was 0.602 (0.372-0.974) (p for trend = 0.007), and for the highest lifestyle, the OBS quartile group was 0.386 (0.223-0.667) (p for trend < 0.001). Moreover, gender effects were found between OBS and diabetes (p for interaction = 0.044). RCS showed an inverted-U relationship between OBS and diabetes in women (p for non-linear = 6e-04) and a linear relationship between OBS and diabetes in men. Conclusions In summary, high OBS was negatively associated with diabetes risk in a gender-dependent manner.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive and invasive brain tumor with a poor prognosis despite extensive treatment. The switch to aerobic glycolysis, known as the Warburg effect, in cancer cells leads to an increased production of methylglyoxal (MGO), a potent glycation agent with pro-tumorigenic characteristics. MGO non-enzymatically reacts with proteins, DNA, and lipids, leading to alterations in the signaling pathways, genomic instability, and cellular dysfunction. In this study, we investigated the impact of MGO on the LN229 and U251 (WHO grade IV, GBM) cell lines and the U343 (WHO grade III) glioma cell line, along with primary human astrocytes (hA). The results showed that increasing concentrations of MGO led to glycation, the accumulation of advanced glycation end-products, and decreasing cell viability in all cell lines. The invasiveness of the GBM cell lines increased under the influence of physiological MGO concentrations (0.3 mmol/L), resulting in a more aggressive phenotype, whereas glycation decreased the invasion potential of hA. In addition, glycation had differential effects on the ECM components that are involved in the invasion progress, upregulating TGFβ, brevican, and tenascin C in the GBM cell lines LN229 and U251. These findings highlight the importance of further studies on the prevention of glycation through MGO scavengers or glyoxalase 1 activators as a potential therapeutic strategy against glioma and GBM.

Abstract
Purpose The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) upregulated during the onset and progression of cancer and bone-related pathologies. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of serum advanced glycation end products (AGEs), soluble RAGE (sRAGE) and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), in multiple myeloma (MM). Methods AGEs, sRAGE and HMGB1 concentrations of 54 newly diagnosed MM patients and 30 healthy volunteers were measured by ELISA. The estimations were done only once at diagnosis. The medical records of the patients were evaluated. Results There was no significant difference between the AGEs and sRAGE levels between the patient and control groups (p = 0.273, p = 0.313). In ROC analysis, a HMGB1 cutoff value of > 9170 pg/ml accurately discriminated MM patients (AUC = 0.672, 95% CI 0.561-0.77, p = 0.0034). AGEs level was found to be significantly higher in early-stage disease and HMGB1 in advanced disease (p = 0.022, p = 0.026). High HMGB1 levels were detected in patients whose with better first-line treatment response (p = 0.019). At 36 months, 54% of patients with low AGE were alive, compared to 79% of patients with high AGE (p = 0.055). Patients with high HMGB1 levels tended to have a longer PFS (median 43 mo [95% CI; 20.68-65.31] ) compared to patients with low HMGB1 levels (median 25 mo [95% CI; 12.39-37.6], p = 0.054). Conclusion In this study, a significant elevation of serum HMGB1 level was found in MM patients. In addition, the positive effects of RAGE ligands on treatment response and prognosis were determined.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia, which is a chronic metabolic condition caused by either a defect in insulin secretion or insulin resistance, is a hallmark of diabetes mellitus (DM). Sustained hyperglycemia leads to the onset and development of many health complications. Despite the number of available antidiabetic medications on the market, there is still a need for novel treatment agents with increased efficacy and fewer adverse effects. Many medicinal plants offer a rich supply of bioactive compounds that have remarkable pharmacological effects with less toxicity and side effects. According to published evidence, natural antidiabetic substances influence pancreatic β-cell development and proliferation, inhibit pancreatic β-cell death, and directly increase insulin output. Pancreatic ATP-sensitive potassium channels play an essential role in coupling glucose metabolism to the secretion of insulin. Although much of the literature is available on the antidiabetic effects of medicinal plants, very limited studies discuss their direct action on pancreatic KATP. The aim of this review is to focus on the modulatory effects of antidiabetic medicinal plants and their active constituents on pancreatic KATP. The KATP channel should be regarded as a key therapeutic milestone in the treatment of diabetes. Therefore, continuous research into the interaction of medicinal plants with the KATP channel is crucial.

Abstract
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder that results in glucose accumulation in the blood, accompanied by the production of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) through glycation of cellular proteins. These AGEs interfere with insulin signaling and prevent GLUT4 membrane translocation, thereby promoting the accumulation of more glucose in the blood and causing post-diabetic complications.Methods: In this study, we examine the anti-diabetic potential of Lyonia ovalifolia (Wall.) Drude, a well-known ethnomedicinal plant of the Indian Himalayas. Considering its various medicinal properties, we analyzed its ethanolic extract and various solvent fractions for in vitro antiglycation activity and antidiabetic potential, i.e., stimulation of GLUT4 translocation.Result and Discussions: The results showed that the extract and fractions exhibited increased antiglycation activity and an increased level of GLUT4 translocation. Analysis of a further 12 bioactive compounds of ethanolic extract, identified through LC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS, revealed the presence of three new compounds: leucothol B, rhodoterpenoids A, and leucothol A. Moreover, we performed molecular docking of identified compounds against key proteins of diabetes mellitus: the sirtuin family of NAD (+)-dependent protein deacetylases 6 (SIRT6), aldose reductase (AR), and tyrosine kinase (TK). The results showed that flavonoid luteolin showed the best binding affinity ((−12.3 kcal/mol), followed by eriodictyol, astilbin, and syringaresinol. An ADMET study showed that luteolin, eriodictyol, astilbin, and syringaresinol may be promising drug candidates belonging to the flavonoid class of compounds, with no harmful effects and complying with all the drug-likeness guidelines. Furthermore, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on a 50 ns timescale revealed that AR protein was most stable with luteolin throughout the simulation period. Therefore, this study reveals for the first time that L. ovalifolia plays an important role in insulin homeostasis, as shown in in vitro and in silico studies.

Abstract
Penta-O-galloyl-β-d-glucose (PGG) was prepared from tannic acid methanolysis products based on HSCCC, and its protective effects and mechanism on the glucose-induced glycation were investigated for the first time. PGG was confirmed to exhibit strong anti-AGEs effects in bovine serum albumin (BSA)-glucose (Glu) and BSA-methylglyoxal (MGO) glycation systems. It was showed that PGG could inhibit the AGEs formation by blocking glycated intermediates (fructosamine and α-dicarbonyl compounds), eliminating radicals, and chelating metal-ions. In-depth mechanism analysis proved that PGG could prevent BSA from glycation by hindering the accumulation of amyloid fibrils, stabilizing the BSA secondary structures, and binding the partial glycation sites. Furthermore, PGG exhibited a prominent trapping capacities on the reactive intermediate MGO by generating PGG-mono-MGO adduct. This research indicated that PGG could be an effective agent to block Glu/MGO-triggered glycation and offered new insights into PGG as a functional ingredient in food materials for preventing diabetic syndrome.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been recognized as an increased risk factor for cognitive impairment, known as diabetic encephalopathy (DE). Hyperglycemia and insulin resistance are the main initiators of DE, which is related to the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Potassium 2-(1-hydroxypentyl)-benzoate (PHPB), a derivative of 3-n-butylphthalide (dl-NBP), has emerged various properties including improved mitochondrial function, antioxidant, anti-neuroinflammation, and neuroprotective effects. The present study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effect of PHPB against AGEs accumulation in type 2 diabetic KK-Ay mice model with DE and further explore the underlying mechanisms. The results showed that PHPB markedly ameliorated the spatial learning ability of KK-Ay mice in the Morris water maze and decreased AD-like pathologic changes (Tau hyperphosphorylation) in the cortex. Furthermore, we found that PHPB treatment significantly reduced AGEs generation via up-regulation of glyoxalase-1 (GLO1) protein and enhancement of methylglyoxal (MG) trapping, while there was no obvious difference in levels of glucose in plasma or brain, contents of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and plasma insulin. Also, PHPB treatment improved the insulin signaling pathway by increasing sirtuin1 (SIRT1) deacetylase activity and attenuated oxidative stress evidenced by elevating glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) protein expression, promoting the production of reduced glutathione (GSH) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), restoring mitochondrial membrane potential, increasing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) generation, and reducing malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the brain. Taken together, PHPB exhibited a beneficial effect on DE, which involved modulating the SIRT1/insulin signaling pathway and reducing oxidative stress by inhibiting the generation of AGEs.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) can boost their receptor of AGE (RAGE) expression through the downstream signaling pathway to facilitate AGE-RAGE interaction. In this regulation process, the primary signaling pathways are NF-κB and STAT3. However, the inhibition of these transcription factors cannot completely block the upregulation of RAGE, which indicates AGEs may also impact RAGE expression via other pathways. In this study, we revealed that AGEs can exhibit epigenetic impacts on RAGE expression. Here, we used carboxymethyl-lysine (CML) and carboxyethyl-lysine (CEL) to treat liver cells and discovered that AGEs can promote the demethylation of the RAGE promoter region. To verify this epigenetic modification, we employed dCAS9-DNMT3a with sgRNA to specifically modify the RAGE promoter region against the effect of carboxymethyl-lysine and carboxyethyl-lysine. The elevated RAGE expressions were partially repressed after AGE-induced hypomethylation statuses were reversed. Additionally, TET1 were also upregulated in AGE-treated cells, indicating AGEs may epigenetically modulate RAGE through the elevating TET1 level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glycation is implicated in the pathophysiology of many diseases, including diabetes, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and aging. Several natural and synthetic compounds were investigated for their antiglycation activity. We evaluated the antiglycation effect of vanillic acid (VA) using in vitro and in vivo experimental models. METHODS In vitro, bovine serum albumin (BSA) (50 mg/ml) was incubated with glucose (50 mM) with or without VA at 1.0-100 mM for 1 week at 37°C, and then, excitation/emission fluorescence was measured at 370/440 nm to determine glycation inhibition. The cytoprotective effect of VA was evaluated using RAW 264.7 cells incubated with or without VA at 7.8-500 μM along with 100-400 μM of methylglyoxal for 48 hours, and cell viability was determined using the MTT assay. Aminoguanidine (AMG) was used as a positive control in both in vitro and cell culture experiments. In vivo, 52 streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were randomly assigned to 4 groups and treated with 0, 1.5, 4.5, or 15 mg/kg VA for four weeks. Serum fructosamine and blood glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were then measured, and advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) were detected in the kidneys and the skin of deboned tails using an immunohistochemistry assay. RESULTS VA caused a concentration-dependent effect against BSA glycation (IC50 of 45.53 mM vs. 5.09 mM for AMG). VA enhanced cell viability at all concentrations of VA and methylglyoxal. VA did not affect serum fructosamine or blood HbA1c levels, although it markedly decreased AGEs in the kidney in a dose-dependent manner and decreased AGEs in the skin of deboned tail tissues. CONCLUSION VA had significant antiglycation activity at cellular and long-term glycation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetic encephalopathy (DE), a chronic complication of diabetes, is characterized by decline of cognitive function. The molecular mechanism of DE remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the roles of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in the pathogenesis of DE and investigate its underlying mechanisms in this process. METHODS DE rats were developed by incorporating a high-fat diet and streptozotocin injection followed by the Morris Water Maze test. HT-22 cells were used to mimic the in vitro neuronal injuries of DE. Expression levels of long non-coding RNA H19, miR-15b and β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) mRNA in the hippocampus of DE rats or HT-22 cells were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The levels of BACE1 proteins were analyzed by western blotting or immunohistochemical staining. The contents of Aβ1-42 in supernatant of the cell culture were analyzed by enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay (ELISA). The relationship between H19 or BACE1 and miR-15b was verified with dual-luciferase reporter assay. RESULTS We found that the accumulation of Aβ1-42 and the phosphorylation of Tau (Ser404) were increased in the hippocampus CA3 regionof DE rats. MiR-15b was downregulated while H19 and BACE1 were upregulated in the hippocampus CA3 regionof DE rats and AGEs-treated HT-22 cells. The expression of BACE1 protein was negatively regulated by miR-15b at the post-transcriptional level in HT-22 cells. In vivo, administration of miR-15b mimics by the intranasal delivery markedly decreased the BACE1 protein in hippocampal CA3 region and improved the cognitive decline in DE rats. Besides, the luciferase activity assay confirmed the binding site of miR-15b to both the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of BACE1 mRNA and H19. Then, miR-15b inhibitor reversed H19 knockdown-mediated decrease of Aβ1-42 level in AGEs-treated HT-22 cells. CONCLUSION These results suggested that AGEs induced Aβ1-42 deposition andcognitive decline through H19/miR-15b/ BACE1 axis in DE.

Abstract
Thirty-three natural products were isolated from the aerial parts of Antidesma bunius, Euphorbiaceae, a plant used in Vietnamese traditional medicine against rheumatoid arthritis. All compounds were reported the first time for this species, and nine constituents resembled undescribed natural products, noticeably three coumarinolignans with 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane moiety, two cyclopeptides, and two furofuran-type lignans connected with a phenylpropanoid moiety. The individual structures were elucidated by combining NMR and MS data, and their configuration was established by NOESY and ECD experiments and NMR calculations. Compounds with sufficient amount were analyzed for their inhibition of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) formation, metabolites involved in many diseases like Alzheimer, joint diseases or diabetes. With IC50 values below 0.2 mM rutin and p-hydroxyphenethyl trans-ferulate showed to be moderately active, both still being 10-times more active than the positive control aminoguanidine.

Abstract
The anti-diabetic potential of whole unripe jackfruit (peel with pulp, flake, and seed) was investigated using inhibitory assays for α-glucosidase, α-amylase, aldose reductase, and glycation at multiple stages. Using activity-guided repeated fractionation on a silica gel column chromatography, dietary flavonoid rutin with potent antihyperglycemic activity was extracted from the methanol extract of whole jackfruit flour (MJ). Rutin was found to inhibit both α-glucosidase (IC50: 7.86 µg/mL) and α-amylase (IC50: 22.00 µg/mL) in a competitive manner of inhibition with low Ki values. In addition, in vitro glycation experiments revealed that rutin prevented each stage of protein glycation as well as the production of intermediate molecules. Furthermore, rutin significantly inhibited aldose reductase (IC50: 2.75 µg/mL) in a non-competitive manner. During in silico studies, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies have suggested that rutin has a high binding affinity for the enzymes studied, which could explain its inhibitory effects. Rutin interacted with the key residues of the target enzymes’ inhibitor binding sites. Compared to the controls used, rutin had a higher binding efficiency as well as stability in the inhibitor binding pocket of the target enzymes. According to our findings, the presence of rutin is more likely to be associated with the potential of MJ in antihyperglycemic activity via inhibition of α-glucosidase and in anti-diabetic action via inhibition of the polyol pathway and protein glycation. The bio-computational study indicates rutin as a potential lead inhibitor of all the target enzymes used and could be used as an effective anti-diabetic drug in the near future.

Abstract
The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a non-specific multi-ligand pattern recognition receptor capable of binding to a range of structurally diverse ligands, expressed on a variety of cell types, and performing different functions. The ligand-RAGE axis can trigger a range of signaling events that are associated with diabetes and its complications, neurological disorders, cancer, inflammation and other diseases. Since RAGE is involved in the pathophysiological processes of many diseases, targeting RAGE may be an effective strategy to block RAGE signaling.

Ca2+/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II Regulation by Inhibitor of Receptor Interacting Protein Kinase 3 Alleviates Necroptosis in Glycation End Products-Induced Cardiomyocytes Injury. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23136988. [PMID: 35805993 PMCID: PMC9266390 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23136988] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2022] [Revised: 06/18/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Necroptosisis a regulatory programmed form of necrosis. Receptor interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) is a robust indicator of necroptosis. RIPK3 mediates myocardial necroptosis through activation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) in cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and heart failure. However, the exact mechanism of RIPK3 in advanced glycation end products (AGEs)-induced cardiomyocytes necroptosis is not clear. In this study, cardiomyocytes were subjected to AGEs stimulation for 24 h. RIPK3 expression, CaMKII expression, and necroptosis were determined in cardiomyocytes after AGEs stimulation. Then, cardiomyocytes were transfected with RIPK3 siRNA to downregulate RIPK3 followed by AGEs stimulation for 24 h. CaMKIIδ alternative splicing, CaMKII activity, oxidative stress, necroptosis, and cell damage were detected again. Next, cardiomyocytes were pretreated with GSK′872, a specific RIPK3 inhibitor to assess whether it could protect cardiomyocytes against AGEs stimulation. We found that AGEs increased the expression of RIPK3, aggravated the disorder of CaMKII δ alternative splicing, promoted CaMKII activation, enhanced oxidative stress, induced necroptosis, and damaged cardiomyocytes. RIPK3 downregulation or RIPK3 inhibitor GSK′872 corrected CaMKIIδ alternative splicing disorder, inhibited CaMKII activation, reduced oxidative stress, attenuated necroptosis, and improved cell damage in cardiomyocytes.
