Abstract
The problems of spoilage, disease, and biofilm caused by bacterial quorum-sensing (QS) systems have posed a significant challenge to the development of the food industry. Quorum-quenching (QQ) enzymes can block QS by hydrolyzing or modifying the signal molecule, making these enzymes promising new candidates for use as antimicrobials. With many recent studies of QQ enzymes and their potential to target foodborne bacteria, an updated and systematic review is necessary. Thus, the goals of this review were to summarize what is known about the effects of bacterial QS on the food industry; discuss the current understanding of the catalytic mechanisms of QQ enzymes, including lactonase, acylase, and oxidoreductase; and describe strategies for the engineering and evolution of QQ enzymes for practical use. In particular, this review focuses on the latest progress in the application of QQ enzymes in the field of food. Finally, the current challenges limiting the systematic application of QQ enzymes in the food industry are discussed to help guide the future development of these important enzymes.

CRISPRi-Mediated Gene Suppression Reveals Putative Reverse Transcriptase Gene PA0715 to Be a Global Regulator of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Infect Drug Resist 2022; 15:7577-7599.

Abstract
Purpose Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen of infection in burn and trauma patients, and multi-drug resistant P. aeruginosa has become an increasingly important pathogen. Essential genes are key to the development of novel antibiotics. The PA0715 gene is a novel unidentified essential gene that has attracted our interest as a potential antibiotic target. Our study aims to determine the exact role of PA0715 in cell physiology and bacterial pathogenicity, providing important clues for antibiotic development. Patients and Methods The shuttle vector pHERD20T containing an arabinose inducible promoter was used to construct the CRISPRi system. Alterations in cellular physiology and bacterial pathogenicity of P. aeruginosa PAO1 after PA0715 inhibition were characterized. High-throughput RNA-seq was performed to gain more insight into the mechanisms by which PA0715 regulates the vital activity of P. aeruginosa. Results We found that down-regulation of PA0715 significantly reduced PAO1 growth rate, motility and chemotaxis, antibiotic resistance, pyocyanin and biofilm production. In addition, PA0715 inhibition reduced the pathogenicity of PAO1 to the greater galleria mellonella larvae. Transcriptional profiling identified 1757 genes including those related to amino acid, carbohydrate, ketone body and organic salt metabolism, whose expression was directly or indirectly controlled by PA0715. Unexpectedly, genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation also varied with PA0715 levels, and these findings support a hitherto unrecognized critical role for PA0715 in oxidative respiration in P. aeruginosa. Conclusion We identified PA0715 as a global regulator of the metabolic network that is indispensable for the survival and reproduction of P. aeruginosa. Our results provide a basis for future studies of potential antibiotic targets for P. aeruginosa and offer new ideas for P. aeruginosa infection control.

The Molecular Basis and Therapeutic Potential of Leukemia Inhibitory Factor in Cancer Cachexia. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14122955. [PMID: 35740622 PMCID: PMC9221449 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14122955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2022] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/11/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The mechanism of cancer cachexia is linked to a variety of factors, and inflammatory factors are thought to play a key role. We summarize the main roles of LIF in the development of cancer cachexia, including promoting fat loss, inducing skeletal muscle atrophy and causing anorexia nervosa. The main aim of this review is to increase the understanding of the effects of LIF in cachexia and to provide new insights into the treatment of cancer cachexia. Abstract Cachexia is a chronic metabolic syndrome that is characterized by sustained weight and muscle mass loss and anorexia. Cachexia can be secondary to a variety of diseases and affects the prognosis of patients significantly. The increase in inflammatory cytokines in plasma is deeply related to the occurrence of cachexia. As a member of the IL-6 cytokine family, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) exerts multiple biological functions. LIF is over-expressed in the cancer cells and stromal cells of various tumors, promoting the malignant development of tumors via the autocrine and paracrine systems. Intriguingly, increasing studies have confirmed that LIF contributes to the progression of cachexia, especially in patients with metastatic tumors. This review combines all of the evidence to summarize the mechanism of LIF-induced cachexia from the following four aspects: (i) LIF and cancer-associated cachexia, (ii) LIF and alterations of adipose tissue in cachexia, (iii) LIF and anorexia nervosa in cachexia, and (iv) LIF and muscle atrophy in cachexia. Considering the complex mechanisms in cachexia, we also focus on the interactions between LIF and other key cytokines in cachexia and existing therapeutics targeting LIF.

Abstract
Cancer-associated cachexia (CAC) is a complex metabolic and behavioral syndrome with multiple manifestations that involve systemic inflammation, weight loss, and adipose lipolysis. It impacts the quality of life of patients and is the direct cause of death in 20-30% of cancer patients. The severity of fat loss and adipose tissue remodeling negatively correlate with patients' survival outcomes. To address the mechanism of fat loss and design potential approaches to prevent the process, it will be essential to understand CAC pathophysiology through white adipose tissue models. In the present study, an engineered human white adipose tissue (eWAT) model based on three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting was developed and treated with pancreatic cancer cell-conditioned medium (CM) to mimic the status of CAC in vitro. We found that the CM treatment significantly increased the lipolysis and accumulation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The 3D eWATs were further vascularized to study the influence of vascularization on lipolysis and CAC progression, which was largely unknown. Results demonstrated that CM treatment improved the angiogenesis of vascularized eWATs (veWATs), and veWATs demonstrated decreased glycerol release but increased Ucp1 expression, compared to eWATs. Many unique inflammatory cytokines (IL-8, CXCL-1, GM-CSF, etc) from the CM were detected and supposed to contribute to eWAT lipolysis, Ucp1 up-regulation, and ECM development. In response to CM treatment, eWATs also secreted inflammatory adipokines related to the metastatic ability of cancer, muscle atrophy, and vascularization (NGAL, CD54, IGFBP-2, etc). Our work demonstrated that the eWAT is a robust model for studying cachectic fat loss and the accompanying remodeling of adipose tissue. It is therefore a useful tool for future research exploring CAC physiologies and developing potential therapies.

Abstract
Phenazines are ubiquitously produced by Pseudomonas spp. in the environment and are widely used in agriculture and clinical therapies, making their accumulation through the food chain cause potential risks to human health. Here, we utilized pyocyanin (PYO) as a representative to study the effects of phenazines on digestive tracts. Pharmacokinetic analysis showed that PYO exhibited low systemic exposure, slow elimination, and low accumulation in both rat and pig models. PYO was subsequently found to induce intestinal microbiota dysbiosis, destroy the mucus layer and physical barrier, and even promote gut vascular barrier (GVB) impairment, consequently increasing the gut permeability. Additionally, integral and metabolomic analyses of the liver demonstrated that PYO induced liver inflammation and metabolic disorders. The metabolic analysis further confirmed that all of the metabolites of PYO retain the nitrogen-containing tricyclic structural skeleton of phenazines, which was the core bioactivity of phenazine compounds. These findings elucidated that PYO could be metabolized by animals. Meanwhile, high levels of PYO could induce intestinal barrier impairment and liver damage, suggesting that we should be alert to the accumulation of phenazines.

Abstract
The immunoinhibitory effect of glucocorticoid and immunoenhancing attributes of melatonin (MEL) are well known, however, the involvement of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in melatonin modulation of bacterial toxins caused-inflammation has not been studied in colon. Pyocyanin (PCN), a toxin released by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, can destroy cells through generating superoxide products and inflammatory response. Here we report that PCN treatment elevated the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which further lead to mitochondrial swelling and caspase cascades activation both in vivo and in vitro. However, MEL treatment alleviated the oxidative stress caused by PCN on cells through scavenging ROS and restoring the expression of antioxidant enzyme so that to effectively alleviate the apoptosis. Large amounts of ROS can activate the NLRP3 signaling pathway, so MEL inhibited PCN induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-8, and TNF-α) secretion. In order to further investigate the molecular mechanism, goblet cells were exposed to MEL and PCN in the presence of luzindole and RU486, inhibitors of MEL receptors and GR respectively. It was found that PCN significantly inhibited the expression level of GR, and MEL effectively alleviated the inhibition phenomenon. Moreover, we found that MEL mainly upregulated the expression of GR to achieve its anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic functions rather than through its own receptor (MT2) in colon goblet cells. Therefore, MEL can reverse the inhibitory effects of PCN on GR/p-GR expression to present its anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic function.

Abstract
As an essential trace element in the human body, manganese (Mn) is involved in many important biochemical reactions. However, excessive exposure to manganese can cause multiple systematic damages to the body. This study aims to investigate the effects of manganese exposure on serum hepatic enzymes in male rats at different time points. After adaptive feeding for 7 days, male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were injected intraperitoneally with 30 mg/kg MnCl2·4H2O once a day for 21 days at zeitgeber time point 2 (ZT2), ZT8, ZT14, and ZT20, respectively. We found that short-term repeated exposure to manganese caused slower body weight gain and increased relative liver and spleen weight index in male rats at different time points. Moreover, serum total bile acid (TBA) increased while aspartate aminotransferase (AST) decreased at ZT2, ZT8, and ZT20. Cholinesterase (ChE) decreased at ZT2 and ZT20, lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) decreased at ZT2, ZT14, and ZT20, and acid phosphatase (ACP) decreased at ZT2 and ZT14. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) decreased at ZT2, ZT14, and ZT20, but increased at ZT8. Alanine amino transferase (ALT) decreased at ZT2 and ZT20, but increased at ZT8. There was a negative correlation between relative liver weight index with AST, ACP, ALP, and LDH, while a positive correlation with TBA. However, relative spleen weight index had a positive correlation with relative liver weight index and TBA, while a negative correlation with ALT, AST, ACP, ALP, LDH, and ChE. Our study shows that the injury of liver function is caused by short-term repeated manganese exposure at different time points. The time effect should be considered in manganese toxicity evaluation.

Pdgfrα-Cre mediated knockout of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor protects mice from high-fat diet induced obesity and hepatic steatosis. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0236741.

Abstract
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonists such as dioxin have been associated with obesity and the development of diabetes. Whole-body Ahr knockout mice on high-fat diet (HFD) have been shown to resist obesity and hepatic steatosis. Tissue-specific knockout of Ahr in mature adipocytes via adiponectin-Cre exacerbates obesity while knockout in liver increases steatosis without having significant effects on obesity. Our previous studies demonstrated that treatment of subcutaneous preadipocytes with exogenous or endogenous AHR agonists disrupts maturation into functional adipocytes in vitro. Here, we used platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (Pdgfrα)-Cre mice, a Cre model previously established to knock out genes in preadipocyte lineages and other cell types, but not liver cells, to further define AHR's role in obesity. We demonstrate that Pdgfrα-Cre Ahr-floxed (Ahrfl/fl) knockout mice are protected from HFD-induced obesity compared to non-knockout Ahrfl/fl mice (control mice). The Pdgfrα-Cre Ahrfl/fl knockout mice were also protected from increased adiposity, enlargement of adipocyte size, and liver steatosis while on the HFD compared to control mice. On a regular control diet, knockout and non-knockout mice showed no differences in weight gain, indicating the protective phenotype arises only when animals are challenged by a HFD. At the cellular level, cultured cells from brown adipose tissue (BAT) of Pdgfrα-Cre Ahrfl/fl mice were more responsive than cells from controls to transcriptional activation of the thermogenic uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1) gene by norepinephrine, suggesting an ability to burn more energy under certain conditions. Collectively, our results show that knockout of Ahr mediated by Pdgfrα-Cre is protective against diet-induced obesity and suggest a mechanism by which enhanced UCP1 activity within BAT might confer these effects.

Abstract
Neovascularization and angiogenesis are vital processes in the repair of damaged tissue, creating new blood vessel networks and increasing oxygen and nutrient supply for regeneration. The importance of Adipose-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (ASCs) contained in the adipose tissue surrounding blood vessel networks to these processes remains unknown and the exact mechanisms responsible for directing adipogenic cell fate remain to be discovered. As adipose tissue contains a heterogenous population of partially differentiated cells of adipocyte lineage; tissue repair, angiogenesis and neovascularization may be closely linked to the function of ASCs in a complex relationship. This review aims to investigate the link between ASCs and angiogenesis/neovascularization, with references to current studies. The molecular mechanisms of these processes, as well as ASC differentiation and proliferation are described in detail. ASCs may differentiate into endothelial cells during neovascularization; however, recent clinical trials have suggested that ASCs may also stimulate angiogenesis and neovascularization indirectly through the release of paracrine factors.
