Abstract
Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, is nowadays widely used in the treatment of gram-negative microorganisms. The antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities of eucalyptol, a type of saturated monoterpene, have been reported in many studies. The aim of this study was to examine the possible effects of eucalyptol on gentamicin-induced renal toxicity. A total of 32 rats were divided into 4 groups; Control (C), Eucalyptol (EUC), Gentamicin (GEN), and Gentamicin + Eucalyptol (GEN + EUC). In order to induce renal toxicity, 100 mg/kg gentamicin was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) for 10 consecutive days in the GEN and GEN + EUC groups. EUC and GEN + EUC groups were given 100 mg/kg orally of eucalyptol for 10 consecutive days. Afterwards, rats were euthanized and samples were taken and subjected to histopathological, biochemical, immunohistochemical, and real-time PCR examinations. The blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CRE) levels were significantly decreased in the GEN + EUC group (0.76 and 0.69-fold, respectively) compared to the GEN group. The glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and catalase (CAT) activities were significantly increased in the GEN + EUC group (1.35 and 2.67-fold, respectively) compared to the GEN group. In GEN group, Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB), Interleukin 1-beta (IL-1β), Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Caspase-3, 8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf2) expression levels were found to be quite irregular. GEN + EUC group decreased the expressions of NF-kB, IL-1β, iNOS, TNF-α, Caspase-3, and 8-OHdG (0.55, 0.67, 0.54, 0.54, 0.63 and 0.67-fold, respectively), while it caused increased expression of Nrf2 (3.1 fold). In addition, eucalyptol treatment ameliorated the histopathological changes that occurred with gentamicin. The results of our study show that eucalyptol has anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, antiapoptotic, nephroprotective, and curative effects on gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity.

PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2024; 198:105726. [PMID: 38225081 DOI: 10.1016/j.pestbp.2023.105726] [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: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 11/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (Diethoxy-sulfanylidene-(3,5,6-trichloropyridin-2-yl) oxy-λ5-phosphane, CPF) was extensively used organophosphorus pesticide, extensively deteriorating public problem with the enrichment in the water bodies. Eucalyptol (1,3,3-Trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.2] octane, EUC), a colorless cyclic monoterpene oxide, has shown anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation properties. To explore the effect of EUC on CPF-induced necroptosis in the grass carp liver cells (L8824 cells), we treated L8824 cells with 60 mM CPF and 5 μM EUC for 24 h. The results showed that CPF exposed lead to excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress, activating the NF-κB and RIPK1 pathway, increasing the level of cell necroptosis. However, EUC treatment attenuated the toxic effects of CPF treatment on L8824 cells. In summary, the study demonstrated that CPF induced necroptosis and inflammation, and EUC treatment could decrease CPF-caused cell injury.

Eur J Pharmacol 2023:175863. [PMID: 37380045 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2023.175863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/30/2023]
Abstract
Our previous data confirmed that 1,8-Cineole had an antihypertensive effect in animal models. However, it is unclear whether antihypertension is dependent on the protective effect of 1,8-Cinceole on endothelial function and structure. At present, the purpose was to investigate the protective effects of 1,8-Cineole on vascular endothelial tissue in hypertensive rats and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Our results showed that 1,8-Cineole significantly reduced the blood pressure and improved the vascular endothelial lesion, attenuated vascular oxidative stress and inflammation induced by L-nitroarginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME) in rats. Pretreatment with 1,8-Cineole was able to inhibit the increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by L-NAME, and increased the release and expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and nitric oxide (NO). In addition, 1,8-Cineole also reversed the increase of autophagy-associated protein LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and the decrease of P62 in vivo and in vitro respectively. There was a synergistic effect between PI3K agonists and drugs, while PI3K inhibitors blocked the efficacy of 1,8-Cineole. The addition of autophagy inhibitor CQ increases the expression of eNOS. Taken together, our results indicate that 1,8-Cineole has potential beneficial promising antihypertension depending on the integrity of vascular endothelial structure and function induced by L-NAME, and the mechanism involves ameliorating autophagy by regulatiing of PI3K/mTOR.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023:108883.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) has caused large-scale pollution worldwide and posed a threat to non-target organisms. Baicalein (BAI) is a flavonoid extract with anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. The gills are the mucosal immune organ and the first physical barrier of fish. However, it is not clear whether BAI counteracts organophosphorus pesticide CPF exposure-caused gill damage. Therefore, we established the CPF exposure and BAI intervention models by adding 23.2 μg/L CPF in water and/or 0.15 g/kg BAI in feed for 30 days. The results showed that CPF exposure could cause gill histopathology lesions. Moreover, CPF exposure led to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, caused oxidative stress and Nrf2 pathway activation, and triggered NF-κB-mediated inflammation reaction and necroptosis in carp gills. BAI adding effectively relieved the pathological changes, and lighten inflammation and necroptosis involving in the elF2α/ATF4 and ATF6 pathways through binding to GRP78 protein. Moreover, BAI could ease oxidative stress, but did not affect Nrf2 pathway in carp gills under CPF exposure. These results suggested that BAI feeding could alleviate necroptosis and inflammation against chlorpyrifos toxicity through elF2α/ATF4 and ATF6 axis. The results partially explained the poisoning effect of CPF, and showed BAI could be act as an antidote for organophosphorus pesticides.

Abstract
Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is a common environmental pollutant which has multi-organ toxicity to mammals. Eucalyptol (EUC) has super antioxidant biological activity. However, in this experimental study, we probed into the mechanism of toxic of TBBPA exposure on Grass carp hepatocytes (L8824 cells) and the antagonistic impact of EUC on TBBPA. We treated L8824 cells with 8 μg/ml TBBPA and/or 20 μM EUC for 24 h in this test research. The experiment results suggested that TBBPA exposure induced elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), led to oxidative stress, decreased SOD and CAT activities, decreased GSH and T-AOC contents, exacerbated MDA accumulation, activated ASK1/JNK signaling pathway, and further increased the contents of mitochondrial dependent apoptosis pathway related indicators (Cyt-C, Bax, Caspase 9, Caspase 3), while Bcl-2 expression decreased. In addition, TBBPA exposure induced increased expression of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and decreased expression of IL-2, IFN-γ, Hepcidin, β-defensin, LEAP2. The oxidative stress level, ASK1/JNK signal pathway expression level, apoptosis ratio and cellular immune function of cells exposed to EUC alone did not change significantly. Combined exposure of TBBPA and EUC significantly reduced the proportion of apoptosis and restored cellular immune function. Therefore, these results suggest that EUC can effectively antagonize TBBPA-induced apoptosis and immune dysfunction of L8824 cells by regulating ROS/ASK1/JNK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Background and aims The destruction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis leads to heart failure (HF), which further aggravates ER stress. Limited data are available on the levels of ER stress markers in HF patients in clinical practice. This study aimed to determine the clinical significance of the ER stress markers, glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), Caspase-3, and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), in predicting HF and its severity. Materials and methods A total of 62 patients with HF and 44 healthy controls were enrolled in the study, and all participants were followed-up for 2 years. Results Serum GRP78, Caspase-3, and CHOP levels were significantly higher in patients with HF than those in healthy controls. The level of GRP78 increased with the severity of HF. GRP78 levels were negatively correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction, and positively correlated with N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide, D-dimer, and lactic acid. Serum GRP78 and Caspase-3 levels showed moderate predictive values for HF patients. Conclusion ER stress markers, GRP78 and Caspase-3, had a certain predictive value in HF and can be used as serum biomarkers for the diagnosis of HF. Additionally, GRP78 showed a certain predictive value in HF severity.

Abstract
Background Angiogenesis plays a critical role on post-infarction heart failure (PIHF), the presence of which facilitates additional blood supply to maintain the survival of residual cardiomyocytes. The sigma-1 receptor (S1R) has been substantiated to stimulate angiogenesis, with the effect on a model of PIHF remaining unknown. Aims This study aims to investigate the effects of S1R on PIHF and the underlying mechanisms involved. Methods Rats were implemented left anterior descending artery ligation followed by rearing for 6 weeks to induce a phenotype of heart failure. Daily intraperitoneal injection of S1R agonist or antagonist for 5 weeks was applied from 2nd week after surgery. The effects exerted by S1R were detected by echocardiography, hemodynamic testing, western blot, Sirius red dyeing, ELISA, immunohistochemistry and fluorescence. We also cultured HUVECs to verify the mechanisms in vitro. Results Stimulation of S1R significantly ameliorated the cardiac function resulted from PIHF, in addition to the observation of reduced fibrosis in the peri-infarct region and the apoptosis of residual cardiomyocytes, which were associated with augmentation of microvascular density in peri-infarct region through activation of the JAK2/STAT3 pathway. We also indicated that suppression of JAK2/STAT3 pathway by specific inhibitor in vitro reversed the pro-angiogenic effects of S1R on HUVECs, which further confirmed that angiogenesis, responsible for PIHF amelioration, by S1R stimulation was in a JAK2/STAT3 pathway-dependent manner. Conclusion S1R stimulation improved PIHF-induced cardiac dysfunction and ventricular remodeling through promoting angiogenesis by activating the JAK2/STAT3 pathway.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) mediate key cardiac functions from development to homeostasis and disease. The current research was to explore the effects of FGF12 in the fibrosis of cardiac function and heart failure, and whether FGF12 alleviated cardiac fibrosis via inhibition of oxidative stress. Ligation of left coronary artery in mice induced heart failure and myocardial infarction (MI). Angiotensin II (Ang II) was administered to cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). FGF12 upregulation or FGF12 transgenic (Tg) mice could improve cardiac dysfunction of MI mice, and attenuated cardiac fibrosis of heart failure induced by MI in mice. FGF12 overexpression suppressed the increases of collagen I, collagen III and fibronectin which was induced by Ang II in CFs. The oxidative stress was enhanced in the heart of MI mice and CFs treated with Ang II, and these enhances were attenuated via FGF12 overexpression. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) overexpression inhibited the enhancements of collagen I, collagen III and fibronectin in the heart of MI mice, and in the CFs treated with Ang II. Overexpression of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidases (Nox1) reversed the attenuating influences of FGF12 on the enhancements of collagen I, collagen III and fibronectin in the CFs induced by Ang II. These outcomes showed that FGF12 upregulation can improve cardiac dysfunction and heart fibrosis of heart failure. FGF12 attenuates oxidative stress to suppress the cardiac fibrosis.
