Abstract
Fish primary cell culture has emerged as a valuable tool for investigating the physiological roles and responses of various cell types found in fish species. This review aims to provide an overview of the advancements and applications of fish primary cell culture techniques, focusing on the profiling of physiological roles exhibited by fish cells in vitro. Fish primary cell culture involves the isolation and cultivation of cells directly derived from fish tissues, maintaining their functional characteristics and enabling researchers to study their behavior and responses under controlled conditions. Over the years, significant progress has been made in optimizing the culture conditions, establishing standardized protocols, and improving the characterization techniques for fish primary cell cultures. The review highlights the diverse cell types that have been successfully cultured from different fish species, including gonad cells, pituitary cells, muscle cells, hepatocytes, kidney and immune cells, adipocyte cells and myeloid cells, brain cells, primary fin cells, gill cells, and other cells. Each cell type exhibits distinct physiological functions, contributing to vital processes such as metabolism, tissue regeneration, immune response, and toxin metabolism. Furthermore, this paper explores the pivotal role of fish primary cell culture in elucidating the mechanisms underlying various physiological processes. Researchers have utilized fish primary cell cultures to study the effects of environmental factors, toxins, pathogens, and pharmaceutical compounds on cellular functions, providing valuable insights into fish health, disease pathogenesis, and drug development. The paper also discusses the application of fish primary cell cultures in aquaculture research, particularly in investigating fish growth, nutrition, reproduction, and stress responses. By mimicking the in vivo conditions in vitro, primary cell culture has proven instrumental in identifying key factors influencing fish health and performance, thereby contributing to the development of sustainable aquaculture practices.

Pediatr Allergy Immunol 2023; 34:e14004. [PMID: 37622257 DOI: 10.1111/pai.14004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Revised: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND As n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and probiotics possess immunomodulatory properties, theoretically they could lower the risk of allergic diseases. But their effects remain controversial. We aimed to study the effects of fish oil and probiotics separately or in combination from early pregnancy onwards to lower the risk of allergic diseases in the infants. METHODS In this double-blind trial, women (n = 439) in early pregnancies were randomized into four intervention groups: fish oil + placebo, probiotics + placebo, fish oil + probiotics, and placebo + placebo. Fish oil (1.9 g docosahexaenoic acid and 0.22 g eicosapentaenoic acid) and probiotic (Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus HN001 and Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis 420, 1010 colony-forming units each) supplements were provided for daily consumption from randomization up to 6 months postpartum. All analyses were adjusted with pet ownership. RESULTS No difference between the infants in the four intervention groups were found regarding physician-diagnosed food allergy, atopic eczema, or atopy at the age of 12 or 24 months (all p > .05). The probiotic intervention was associated with lower odds of recurrent wheezing at 24 months (OR 0.39, 95% CI 0.18-0.84, p = .017), but not at 12 months. CONCLUSIONS The use of fish oil and/or probiotics from early pregnancy onwards did not lower the odds of childhood allergic diseases or atopy, with the exception of the probiotic intervention which decreased the risk of recurrent wheezing when the infants were two years old. This suggests that the incidence of asthma could also decrease later in childhood and thus these outcomes need to be clarified in further investigations.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28073004. [PMID: 37049766 PMCID: PMC10096317 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28073004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Anthracycline doxorubicin (DOX) is still widely used as a chemotherapeutic drug for some solid tumors. Although DOX is highly effective, its side effects are limiting factors, such as cardio, nephro and hepatotoxicity. As such, approaches used to mitigate these adverse effects are highly encouraged. Omega 3 (ω-3), which is a class of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects in preclinical bioassays. Thus, we evaluated the protective effects of ω-3 supplementation on hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity induced by multiple DOX administrations in rodents. Male Wistar rats (10 rats/group) were treated daily with ω-3 (400 mg/kg/day) by gavage for six weeks. Two weeks after the first ω-3 administration, the rats received DOX (3.5 mg/kg, intraperitoneal, 1×/week) for four weeks. DOX treatment reduced body weight gain increased systemic genotoxicity and caused liver-related (increase in serum ALT levels, thickness of the Glisson’s capsule, compensatory proliferation and p65 levels) and kidney-related (increase in serum urea and creatinine levels, and incidence of tubular dilatation) deleterious outcomes. In contrast, ω-3 supplementation was safe and abrogated the DOX-related enhancement of systemic genotoxicity, serum urea and creatinine levels. Furthermore, ω-3 intervention reduced by 50% the incidence of kidney histological lesions while reducing by 40–50% the p65 protein level, and the proliferative response in the liver induced by DOX. Our findings indicate that ω-3 intervention attenuated the DOX-induced deleterious effects in the liver and kidney. Therefore, our findings may inspire future mechanistical investigations and clinical interventions with ω-3 on the reported outcomes.

Front Immunol 2023; 14:1162633. [PMID: 37051230 PMCID: PMC10083288 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1162633] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Dietary high soybean oil (SO) levels might cause hepatic lipid deposition, induce oxidative stress and inflammatory response in aquatic animals, while octanoate (OCT) is beneficial to metabolism and health in mammals. However, the effect of OCT has been studied rarely in aquatic animals. In this study, a 10-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effect of supplemental OCT on hepatic lipid metabolism, serum biochemical indexes, antioxidant capacity and inflammatory response of large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) fed with high SO levels diet. The negative control diet contained 7% fish oil (FO), while the positive control diet contained 7% SO. The other four experimental diets were supplemented with 0.7, 2.1, 6.3 and 18.9 g/kg sodium octanoate (OCT) based on the positive control diet. Results showed that OCT supplementation effectively reduced the hepatic crude lipid, triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and non-esterified free fatty acids contents, and alleviated lipid accumulation caused by the SO diet. Meanwhile, OCT supplementation decreased the serum TG, TC, alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, increased the serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level, improved the serum lipid profiles and alleviated hepatic injury. Furthermore, with the supplementation of OCT, the mRNA expression of genes related to lipogenesis (acc1, scd1, fas, srebp1, dgat1 and cebpα) and fatty acid (FA) transport (fabp3, fatp and cd36) were down-regulated, while the mRNA expression of genes related to lipolysis (atgl, hsl and lpl) and FA β-oxidation (cpt1 and mcad) were up-regulated. Besides that, dietary OCT increased the total antioxidant capacity, activities of peroxidase, catalase and superoxide dismutase and the content of reduced glutathione, decreased the content of 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine and malondialdehyde and relieved hepatic oxidative stress. Supplementation of 0.7 and 2.1 g/kg OCT down-regulated the mRNA expression of genes related to pro-inflammatory cytokines (tnfα, il1β and ifnγ), and suppressed hepatic inflammatory response. In conclusion, supplementation with 0.7-2.1 g/kg OCT could reduce hepatic lipid accumulation, relieve oxidative stress and regulate inflammatory response in large yellow croaker fed the diet with high SO levels, providing a new way to alleviate the hepatic fat deposition in aquatic animals.

Abstract
Paeonol (2'-hydroxy-4'-methoxyacetophenone) is a phenol that exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capabilities. In this study, the underlying mechanism of paeonol against LPS-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in gibel carp was investigated. Three hundred healthy gibel carp were divided into five groups (n = 9), intraperitoneally injected with LPS and thereafter treated with paeonol (16 mg/kg and 64 mg/kg). Fish were anesthetized with MS-222 (100 mg/L), and samples were collected at 72 h to investigate plasma biochemical indexes, liver histopathology, antioxidant enzymatic activity, and TLR receptor-related gene expression. Fish injected with LPS (20 mg/kg) exhibited significantly increased plasma aminotransferase (ALT), aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glucose (GLU), diamine oxidase (DAO), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels (P < 0.05). In addition, LPS challenge significantly enhanced myeloperoxidase (MPO) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents, whereas those of catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) decreased (P < 0.05). However, treatment with paeonol attenuated these LPS-induced changes (P < 0.05). The mRNA expression of TLR4, TIRAP, MyD88, TRAF6, NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-8, which were activated by LPS challenge (P < 0.05), were downregulated by paeonol. Additionally, histopathological examination demonstrated that paeonol alleviates LPS-induced hepatic tissue lesions in fish. Taken together, the results suggest that paeonol mitigates LPS-induced liver oxidative stress and inflammation in gibel carp.

Abstract
Findings on prenatal polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and offspring allergies have been inconsistent, and the majority of studies have focused on Western populations. This study aimed to investigate the associations between maternal erythrocyte PUFA and offspring allergies in the first 2 years in the Chinese population. We included 573 mother–infant pairs from a birth cohort. Based on the outpatient medical records, we identified the diagnosis and time of offspring allergic disease onset. We measured erythrocyte fatty acids by gas chromatography. Associations were examined using Cox regression. We found that higher maternal total PUFA levels (HR = 0.80; 95% CI: 0.68, 0.94), especially of arachidonic acid (AA) (HR = 0.79; 95% CI: 0.65, 0.97) and n-3 PUFA (HR = 0.77; 95% CI: 0.62, 0.97), were associated with reduced risk of offspring allergies. Similar results were found for eczema. Compared with children without a maternal allergy history, the associations of total PUFA (p = 0.028) and n-6 PUFA (p = 0.013) with offspring allergies were stronger in those with a maternal allergy history. Maternal erythrocyte total PUFA, especially AA, and n-3 PUFA were inversely associated with offspring allergies within 2 years of age. There was a significant interaction between maternal allergy history and maternal PUFA in offspring allergies.

Abstract
Understanding the metabolic effects of fatty acids on fish intestine is critical to the substitution of fish oil with vegetable oils in aquaculture. In this study, the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and palmitic acid (PA) on fish intestine were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. As the first step for in vitro study, an intestinal cell line (SPIF) was established from silver pomfret (Pampus argenteus). Thereafter, the effects of EPA and PA on cell viability, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production, and the expression of genes related to heat shock response, inflammation, extracellular matrix (ECM) formation and degradation were examined in SPIF cells. Finally, these metabolic effects of EPA and PA on the intestine were examined in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae. Results showed that all tested fatty acids (PA, oleic acid, linoleic acid, α-linolenic acid, arachidonic acid, and docosahexaenoic acid) except EPA reduced SPIF viability to distinct degrees at the same concentrations. PA decreased SPIF viability accompanied by an increase in PGE2 level. Meanwhile, PA increased the expression of genes related to heat shock response (grp78, grp94, hsp70, and hsp90) and inflammation (nf-κb, il-1β, and cox2). Furthermore, PA reduced the expression of collagen type I (col1a1a and col1a1b) and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation-related gene mmp2, while up-regulating timp2 mRNA expression. In vivo, PA also increased hsp70, il-1β, and cox2 mRNA levels and limited the expression of collagen type I in the larval zebrafish intestine. Interestingly, the combination of EPA and PA partially recovered the PA-induced changes in cell viability, PGE2 production, and mRNA expression in vitro and in vivo. These results suggest that PA may result in heat shock and inflammatory responses, as well as alter ECM formation and degradation in fish intestine, while EPA could at least partially mitigate these negative effects caused by PA.

Docosahexaenoic Acid Alleviates Palmitic Acid-Induced Inflammation of Macrophages via TLR22-MAPK-PPARγ/Nrf2 Pathway in Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea). Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11040682. [PMID: 35453367 PMCID: PMC9032456 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11040682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 02/23/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Palmitic acid (PA) is a saturated fatty acid (SFA) that can cause an inflammatory response, while docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is always used as a nutritional modulator due to its anti-inflammatory properties. However, the potential molecular mechanism is still not completely elucidated in fish. Herein, the PA treatment induced an inflammatory response in macrophages of large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). Meanwhile, the mRNA expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-related genes, especially tlr22, and the phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway were significantly upregulated by PA. Further investigation found that the PA-induced inflammatory response was suppressed by tlr22 knockdown and MAPK inhibitors. Moreover, the results of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonist and inhibitor treatment proved that PPARγ was involved in the PA-induced inflammation. PA treatment decreased the protein expression of PPARγ, while tlr22 knockdown and MAPK inhibitors recovered the decreased expression. Besides, the PA-induced activation of Nrf2 was regulated by p38 MAPK. Furthermore, DHA-executed anti-inflammatory effects by regulating the phosphorylation of the MAPK pathway and expressions of PPARγ and Nrf2. Overall, the present study revealed that DHA alleviated PA-induced inflammation in macrophages via the TLR22-MAPK-PPARγ/Nrf2 pathway. These results could advance the understanding of the molecular mechanism of the SFA-induced inflammatory response and provide nutritional mitigative strategies.

Dietary lipid levels affected antioxidative status, inflammation response, apoptosis and microbial community in the intestine of juvenile turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.). Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 2021; 264:111118.

Abstract
A nine-week feeding trial was conducted to comprehensively investigate the effects of different levels of dietary lipid on intestinal physiology of juvenile turbot. Three diets with different lipid levels (8%, 12% and 16%) were formulated, which were designated as the low-lipid group (LL), medium-lipid group (ML) and high-lipid group (HL), respectively. Each diet was fed to six replicate tanks, and each tank was stocked with 35 fish. The results revealed that medium dietary lipid (12%) increased the activities of intestinal digestive enzymes and brush border enzymes. Excessive dietary lipid (16%) decreased the intestinal antioxidative enzyme levels and increased the lipid peroxidation pressure. In addition, HL stimulated the occurrence of intestinal inflammation and significantly up-regulated the mRNA expression level of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). Dietary LL and HL induced the apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells. Sequencing of bacterial 16 s rRNA V4 region indicated that the abundance and diversity of intestinal microflora in fish fed with medium lipid diet (12%) were significantly higher than those in other groups, indicating the intestinal microflora ecology in group ML was more balanced. MetaStat analysis indicated that both low- and high-lipid diets significantly reduced the relative abundance of intestinal beneficial bacteria. In conclusion, results of this study demonstrated the sensitivity of intestinal health and microbiota to dietary lipid levels. From the perspective of microecological balance, medium dietary lipid (12%) was more conducive to maintaining the intestinal microflora stability of turbot.

Abstract
Fish peptidoglycan recognition proteins (PGRPs) play important roles in microbial recognition, and bacterial elimination. In the present study, a short-type PGRP from large yellow croaker, LcPGRP5 was cloned and its functions were characterized. LcPGRP5 gene encodes a protein containing conserved PGRP domain, but no signal peptide. Phylogenetic analysis shows that LcPGRP5 is clustered with other short PGRPs identified in other teleosts. LcPGRP5 is constitutively expressed in all tissues examined, with the highest expression being detected in the head kidney. Recombinant LcPGRP5 protein features amidase activity and bactericidal activity. Notably, LcPGRP5 could enhance the phagocytosis of the bacteria by large yellow croaker macrophage, with higher phagocytic capacity being observed in Staphylococcus aureus compared to Escherichia coli. Moreover, overexpression of LcPGRP5 suppresses pro-inflammatory effects elicited by bacterial exposure in the macrophage cell line. Overall, the present results clearly indicate the important roles of LcPGRP5 played in the innate immune responses against bacterial infection.

Abstract
Lipid metabolism disorders are found ubiquitously in farmed fish and occur as a result of excessive fat accumulation. Previous studies have found that miR-33 is involved in lipid metabolism; however, its role in fish lipid metabolism is unclear. We sought to clarify this relationship in grass carp in vivo and in vitro. Our findings revealed the length of miR-33 to be 65 bp. Phylogenetic tree analysis showed that grass carp miR-33 was most closely related to fish miR-33 (Siganus canaliculatus). Hepatocytes transfected with miR-33 mimic displayed markedly raised TG content (P < 0.05) as well as increased levels of lipid synthesis-related transcription factors (P < 0.05). Compared with blank and saline groups, total serum cholesterol, AST, and LDL levels were suppressed in groups treated with the miR-33 antagomir (P < 0.05). Moreover, the expression levels of PPARγ and SREBP-1c mRNA were significantly decreased in contrast to those found in the control group (P < 0.05). Similar findings were noted in the expression of immune-related proinflammatory molecules (TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, and NF-κB), which also demonstrated decreased levels (P < 0.05). Conversely, high expressions of anti-inflammatory factors (TGF-β1 and IL-10) were noted (P < 0.05). This investigation strongly supports the role of miR-33 in hepatopancreas-based lipid metabolism and immunity. miR-33 may have been highly conserved in early vertebrates in order to facilitate liver-specific metabolic and immunomodulatory functions. Our findings provide a basis for further investigations exploring the mechanisms surrounding fish lipid metabolism and may aid in preventing and treating immunocompromised fish as well as fish with fatty hepatopancreas, and other metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke leads to severe neurological dysfunction in adults. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) induces tolerance to cReperfusion inj/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Therefore, our aims were to investigate whether SIRT1 participates in regulatingin the neuro-protective effect of HBO in a cerebral I/R model and its mechanism. Mice N2a cells were used to construct an oxygen deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) model to simulate in vitro brain I/R injury and to evaluate the role of HBO in OGD/R stimulated cells. Cell proliferation was detected using MTT, and apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry. ELISA was used to measure the concentration of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 related inflammatory factors. RT-qPCR and western blot assays were performed to test the expression of SIRT1. Immunoprecipitation was used to detect acetylation of HMGB1. Expression of SIRT1 was obviously reduced after OGD/R treatment in N2a cells, while SIRT1 was obviously enhanced in HBO treated cells. Moreover, knockdown of SIRT1 induced neuro-inflammation damage in cells and HBO effectively improved the inflammatory response in OGD/R treated cells by affecting SIRT1 levels. Furthermore, HBO induced the deacetylation of HMGB1 via regulating SIRT1. Interestingly, HBO via regulating the SIRT1-induced HMGB1 deacetylation and suppressing MMP-9 improved ischemic brain injury. HBO regulated ischemic brain injury via regulation of SIRT1-induced HMGB1 deacetylation, making it a potential treatment for ischemic brain injury treatment.

Abstract
The present study aimed to elucidate the mechanism of dietary betaine, as a lipid-lowering substance, on the regulation of lipid metabolism and inflammation in juvenile black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii) fed a high fat diet. An 8-week feeding trial was conducted in black seabream with an initial weight of 8.39 ± 0.01g fed four isonitrogenous diets including Control, medium-fat diet (11%); HFD, high-fat diet (17%); and HFD supplemented with two levels (10 and 20 g/kg) of betaine, HFD+B1 and HFD+B2, respectively. SGR and FE in fish fed HFD+B2 were significantly higher than in fish fed HFD. Liver histology revealed that vacuolar fat droplets were smaller and fewer in bream fed HFD supplemented with betaine compared to fish fed HFD. Betaine promoted the mRNA and protein expression levels of silent information regulator 1 (Sirt1), up-regulated mRNA expression and protein content of lipid peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (pparα), and down-regulated mRNA expression and protein content of sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1(srebp-1). Furthermore, the mRNA expression levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines in liver and intestine were up-regulated, while nuclear factor kB (nf-kb) and pro-inflammatory cytokines were down-regulated by dietary betaine supplementation. Likewise, in fish that received lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to stimulate inflammatory responses, the expression levels of mRNAs of anti-inflammatory cytokines in liver, intestine and kidney were up-regulated in fish fed HFD supplemented with betaine compared with fish fed HFD, while nf-kb and pro-inflammatory cytokines were down-regulated. This is the first report to suggest that dietary betaine could be an effective feed additive to alleviate hepatic steatosis and attenuate inflammatory responses in black seabream fed a high fat diet by modulating the Sirt1/Srebp-1/Pparɑ pathway.

Cardiovasc Res 2021; 117:836-849. [PMID: 32402066 PMCID: PMC7898956 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvaa134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2019] [Revised: 02/21/2020] [Accepted: 05/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Vascular calcification is a recognized predictor of cardiovascular risk in the diabetic patient, with DNA damage and accelerated senescence linked to oxidative stress-associated pathological calcification. Having previously shown that systemic SIRT1 is reduced in diabetes, the aim was to establish whether SIRT1 is protective against a DNA damage-induced senescent and calcified phenotype in diabetic vascular smooth muscle cells (vSMCs). METHODS AND RESULTS Immunohistochemistry revealed decreased SIRT1 and increased DNA damage marker expression in diabetic calcified arteries compared to non-diabetic and non-calcified controls, strengthened by findings that vSMCs isolated from diabetic patients show elevated DNA damage and senescence, assessed by the Comet assay and telomere length. Hyperglycaemic conditions were used and induced DNA damage and enhanced senescence in vSMCs in vitro. Using H2O2 as a model of oxidative stress-induced DNA damage, pharmacological activation of SIRT1 reduced H2O2 DNA damage-induced calcification, prevented not only DNA damage, as shown by reduced comet tail length, but also decreased yH2AX foci formation, and attenuated calcification. While Ataxia Telanglectasia Mutated (ATM) expression was reduced following DNA damage, in contrast, SIRT1 activation significantly increased ATM expression, phosphorylating both MRE11 and NBS1, thus allowing formation of the MRN complex and increasing activation of the DNA repair pathway. CONCLUSION DNA damage-induced calcification is accelerated within a diabetic environment and can be attenuated in vitro by SIRT1 activation. This occurs through enhancement of the MRN repair complex within vSMCs and has therapeutic potential within the diabetic patient.

JOURNAL OF RESEARCH IN MEDICAL SCIENCES 2020; 25:105.

Abstract
Background: Accumulation of fatty acids in liver causes lipotoxicity which is followed by nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. The association between intakes of trans-fatty acids with metabolic diseases is still controversial. Accordingly, the objective of this study was to investigate the in vitro effects of trans-palmitoleic acid (tPA) and palmitic acid (PA) on lipid accumulation in hepatocytes, focusing on the gene expression of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) as well as the transcriptional activity of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα). Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells were cultured and treated with various concentrations of tPA and PA (C16:0). The accumulation of triglyceride in the cells was measured by enzymatic method. Gene expression was evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction. The activity of PPARα was assessed by luciferase reporter assay after transfection of human embryonic kidney 293T cells by a vector containing the PPAR response element. Results: While concentration >1 mM for PA and cis-PA (cPA) reduced the viability of hepatocytes, tPA revealed an opposite effect and increased cell survival. Lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells after treatment with tPA was significantly lower than that in cells treated with PA. In addition, tPA at physiological concentration had no effect on the expression of SIRT1 while at high concentration significantly augmented its expression. There was a modest increase in PPARα activity at low concentration of tPA. Conclusion: tPA causes less lipid accumulation in hepatocytes with no detrimental effect on cell viability and might be beneficial for liver cells by the activation of SIRT1 and induction of PPARα activity.

Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) not only serve as essential nutrients but also function as modulators of the immune response in marine fish. However, their immunomodulatory mechanism is poorly understood given that the underlying regulation of the innate immune response in fish has not been fully elucidated. Hence, study of the innate immunity of fish could help elucidate the mechanism by which PUFAs affect the fish immune response. Here, we used combined transcriptome analysis and in vitro experimentation to study the mechanism of LPS-induced inflammation. Transcriptome profiling indicated that LPS elicited strong pro-inflammatory responses featuring high expression levels of pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs) and cytokines along with the activation of NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. The transcription factor p65 alone could increase the transcription of IL1β by binding to the promoter of IL1β, and this promoting effect disappeared after mutation or deletion of its binding sites. We then examined the effects of PUFAs on the levels of gene expression and the abundance of proteins of critical kinases associated with LPS-induced inflammation. We found that LA exerts pro-inflammatory response while ALA, EPA, and DHA induced anti-inflammatory effects by modulating the expression of PRRs, phosphorylation of IKK and p38, and the nuclear translocation of p65. Overall, this study advances our understanding of the regulatory mechanisms by which PUFAs regulate LPS-induced inflammation in a non-model fish species.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of dietary n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) levels on growth, lipid metabolism and innate immunity in juvenile golden pompano Trachinotus ovatus, a marine carnivorous teleost, a total of 450 fish (average body weight: 14.84 g) were randomly distributed into 18 cages at sea, each dietary group with three cages and respectively fed six diets (D1-D6) with 2.30% (D1), 0.64% (D2), 1.00% (D3), 1.24% (D4), 1.73% (D5), or 2.10% (D6) n-3 HUFA. Here, D1 with fish oil as lipid source was set as control, while D2-D6 used a mixed vegetable oil as lipid source and supplemented with docosahexaenoic acid- (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid- (EPA) enriched oils to adjust the n-3 HUFA levels. After 8 weeks feeding, the daily growth coefficient (DGC), specific growth rate (SGR) and feed efficiency ratio (FER) showed no significant difference among the six dietary groups (P > 0.05). The levels of EPA and DHA in serum and liver increased with the dietary n-3 HUFA levels. The activity of total superoxide disumutase (T-SOD) in serum of fish fed D4 and D5 were significantly higher than that of the other groups, whereas the opposite was true for serum IL-1β and IL-6 levels as well as liver malondialdehyde (MDA) content. The mRNA levels of genes related to hepatic lipid metabolism including sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1 (srebp-1), fatty acid binding protein 1 (fabp1), peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor alpha (pparα), elongase of very long-chain fatty acids 5 (elovl5) and fatty acyl desaturase 2 (fads2) were down-regulated in fish fed the diets with high n-3 HUFA levels, while those of apolipoprotein b 100 (aprob 100) and carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1 (cpt1) increased significantly as increasing n-3 HUFA levels up to 1.73% (D2-D5), but decreased in the 2.10% n-3 HUFA group (D6). In addition, the expression levels of genes related to innate immunity including interleukin-10 (il-10) and transforming growth factor β1 (tgf-β1) increased significantly when dietary n-3 HUFA increased from 0.64% to 1.73%, whereas the opposite was true for the expression levels of nuclear factor kappa-B (nf-κb), interleukin-1β (il-1β), interleukin-6 (il-6) and interleukin-8 (il-8). Overall, the results indicated that dietary n-3 HUFA at 1.24-1.73% (D4-D5) can effectively improve fatty acid profiles, lipid metabolism, antioxidant capacity and immune response of golden pompano.

Abstract
Apart from mitigating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, vast studies have demonstrated the crucial role of inositol-requiring transmembrane kinase and endonuclease 1α (IRE1α) - spliced X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1s) signaling pathway in inflammatory response in mammals. In addition, palmitic acid (PA)-induced inflammation has been verified in large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). However, whether the IRE1α-XBP1s signaling pathway is involved in inflammatory response caused by PA remains poorly studied in fish. The present study was aimed at elucidating the role of the IRE1α-XBP1s signaling pathway in inflammatory response induced by PA in primary hepatocytes from large yellow croaker. In the present study, the full-length cDNA of ire1α and xbp1s were cloned and comprised 3793 bp and 1789 bp with an open reading frame of 3279 bp and 1170 bp, encoding 1093 and 390 amino acids, respectively. IRE1α protein possessed a protein kinase and endoribonuclease domain and XBP1s protein possessed a basic-leucine zipper domain. The IRE1α protein and XBP1s protein located to the ER membrane and nucleus respectively. The ire1α and xbp1s were widely transcribed in various tissues with the higher level in intestine, liver, adipose and head kidney. The ER stress-inducing agent tunicamycin (Tm) and PA treatment significantly activated the IRE1α-XBP1s signaling pathway and increased the pro-inflammatory genes expression including tumor necrosis factor α (tnfα), interleukin 6 (il-6) and interleukin 1β (il-1β) (P < 0.05). When KIRA6, the IRE1α kinase inhibitor, was used to block the IRE1α-XBP1s signaling pathway, the Tm and PA-induced pro-inflammatory genes expression was significantly suppressed (P < 0.05). These data indicated that the IRE1α-XBP1s signaling pathway was involved in the PA-induced inflammatory response in large yellow croaker.

Impacts of replacement of dietary fish oil by vegetable oils on growth performance, anti-oxidative capacity, and inflammatory response in large yellow croaker Larimichthys crocea. FISH PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY 2020; 46:231-245.

Abstract
A 12-week feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of replacement of dietary fish oil by palm and linseed oils on the growth performance, anti-oxidative capacity, and inflammatory responses of large yellow croaker (initial body weight: 36.82 ± 0.29 g). The control diet was designed to contain 6.5% of fish oil, and named as FO. On the basis of the control diet, the fish oil was 100% replaced by palm and linseed oils, and these two diets were named as PO and LO, respectively. Results showed that the specific growth rate significantly reduced in the PO and LO groups. Crude lipid content in liver of fish fed FO was significantly lower than that in the PO and LO groups. Fatty acid composition in liver reflected the dietary input. Compared with the FO group, palm oil inclusion significantly decreased expressions of superoxide dismutase 1, catalase, and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 in liver, while linseed oil inclusion significantly increased expressions of above genes. However, both of the PO and LO groups had a significantly lower total anti-oxidative capacity in liver than the fish fed FO. Dietary palm and linseed oils significantly decreased expressions of arginase I and interleukin 10, and increased expressions of tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin 1β, toll-like receptor 22, and myeloid differentiation factor 88 in liver. In conclusion, total replacement of dietary fish oil by palm and linseed oils could suppress growth performance and liver anti-oxidative capacity, and induce inflammatory responses of large yellow croaker.

Dietary choline supplementation attenuated high-fat diet-induced inflammation through regulation of lipid metabolism and suppression of NFκB activation in juvenile black seabream ( Acanthopagrus schlegelii).

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate whether dietary choline can regulate lipid metabolism and suppress NFκB activation and, consequently, attenuate inflammation induced by a high-fat diet in black sea bream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii). An 8-week feeding trial was conducted on fish with an initial weight of 8·16 ± 0·01 g. Five diets were formulated: control, low-fat diet (11 %); HFD, high-fat diet (17 %); and HFD supplemented with graded levels of choline (3, 6 or 12 g/kg) termed HFD + C1, HFD + C2 and HFD + C3, respectively. Dietary choline decreased lipid content in whole body and tissues. Highest TAG and cholesterol concentrations in serum and liver were recorded in fish fed the HFD. Similarly, compared with fish fed the HFD, dietary choline reduced vacuolar fat drops and ameliorated HFD-induced pathological changes in liver. Expression of genes of lipolysis pathways were up-regulated, and genes of lipogenesis down-regulated, by dietary choline compared with fish fed the HFD. Expression of nfκb and pro-inflammatory cytokines in liver and intestine was suppressed by choline supplementation, whereas expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines was promoted in fish fed choline-supplemented diets. In fish that received lipopolysaccharide to stimulate inflammatory responses, the expression of nfκb and pro-inflammatory cytokines in liver, intestine and kidney were all down-regulated by dietary choline compared with the HFD. Overall, the present study indicated that dietary choline had a lipid-lowering effect, which could protect the liver by regulating intrahepatic lipid metabolism, reducing lipid droplet accumulation and suppressing NFκB activation, consequently attenuating HFD-induced inflammation in A. schlegelii.

Abstract
Fish despite their low collocation in the vertebrate phylum possess a complete immune system. In teleost fish both innate and adaptive immune responses have been described with melanomacrophage centers (MMCs) equivalent to mammalian germinal centers. Primary lymphoid organs are represented by the thymus and kidney, while spleen and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues act as secondary lymphoid organs. Functions of either innate immune cells (e.g., macrophages and dendritic cells) or adaptive immune cells (T and B lymphocytes) will be described in detail, even including their products, such as cytokines and antibodies. In spite of a robust immune arsenal, fish are very much exposed to infectious agents (marine bacteria, parasites, fungi, and viruses) and, consequentially, mortality is very much enhanced especially in farmed fish. In fact, in aquaculture stressful events (overcrowding), microbial infections very frequently lead to a high rate of mortality. With the aim to reduce mortality of farmed fish through the reinforcement of their immune status the current trend is to administer natural products together with the conventional feed. Then, in the second part of the present review emphasis will be placed on a series of products, such as prebiotics, probiotics and synbiotics, β-glucans, vitamins, fatty acids and polyphenols all used to feed farmed fish. With special reference to polyphenols, results of our group using red grape extracts to feed farmed European sea bass will be illustrated. In particular, determination of cytokine production at intestinal and splenic levels, areas of MMCs and development of hepatopancreas will represent the main biomarkers considered. All together, our own data and those of current literature suggests that natural product administration to farmed fish for their beneficial effects may, in part, solve the problem of fish mortality in aquaculture, enhancing their immune responses.

Abstract
Inflammation may result in periventricular leukomalacia, which is the leading cause of preterm brain encephalopathy. Moreover, <omega>-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (<omega>-3 PUFAs) play a pivotal role against central nervous system injury, which is likely related to its anti-inflammatory effect. However, the mechanism regarding the remedial effects of <omega>-3 PUFA for LPS-induced neuro-injury has remained unclear. In this study, newborn SD rats were intraperitoneally injected with LPS or < omega>-3 PUFA, and the proliferation and apoptosis of neurocytes in the hippocampus were measured by TUNEL and BrdU. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and Western blot assay were used to analyze the mRNA and protein levels of PI3K, AKT and β-catenin in vitro and in vivo. We found that <omega>-3 PUFA promoted the proliferation and migration of neurocytes in vitro and in vivo and inhibited apoptosis. Furthermore, we confirmed that <omega>-3 PUFA through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway positively regulated the expression of PI3K and further caused the phosphorylation of AKT activation, followed by the upregulation of β-catenin expression. Interestingly, this phenomenon became more noticeable with the combined application of <omega>-3 PUFA and a PI3K/AKT agonist. In conclusion, we confirm that <omega>-3 PUFA plays an important role in neuroprotection by activating the PI3K/AKT/β-catenin pathway. It may be a promising strategy against brain injury.

Sirtuins as regulators of the cellular stress response and metabolism in marine ectotherms. Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 2019; 236:110528.

Abstract
The effects of climate change are altering the environmental landscape of marine habitats and exposing organisms to stressful conditions that may exceed their tolerance limits. Marine intertidal organisms are well adapted to fluctuating environments by adjusting energy metabolism and inducing the cellular stress response (CSR). Recent studies have shown that food availability can influence stress tolerance of marine ectotherms where a well-fed organism is more "robust" and more likely to survive a stressor than an animal under a low-food regime. We propose that the link between food availability and stress tolerance in marine ectotherms may be regulated by sirtuins, NAD+-dependent deacylases. In model organisms sirtuins act as energy sensors and are active under calorie restricted states where they target and regulate cellular metabolism, minimize oxidative stress, and influence the CSR. However, we know little regarding sirtuins in marine ectotherms. Herein we review the current literature on sirtuins in marine ectotherms including marine teleosts, limpets, and mussels. We show that the role of sirtuins in marine ectotherms is conserved from model organisms in regulating the CSR and energy, but the direct connection to NAD+ status under fed and starved conditions requires more attention. Although there is a beginning foundation of research regarding sirtuins in marine organisms, it is limited and would benefit from targeted studies investigating sirtuin activity in various tissues and animals under multiple stressors, NAD+/NADH levels under various fed states, and by using known sirtuin inhibitors and activators to elucidate the potential targets of sirtuins in marine animals.

Abstract
High mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) is a nonhistone that mainly binds to nucleus DNA. As an important late inflammatory transmitter, extracellular HMGB1 is involved in the inflammatory immune response, tumor growth, infiltration, and metastasis. HMGB1 is actively released by activated inflammatory cells or passively released by necrotic cells. Then the released extracellular HMGB1 further induces monocytes/macrophages, neutrophils, and dendritic cells to secrete inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, HMGB1 can not only act as a proinflammatory factor to directly involve in tissue damage, but also acts as an inflammatory medium to aggravate the inflammatory cascade reaction. Studies have shown that the post-translational modification (PTM) participated in the process of HMGB1 cytosol translocation and extracellular release. The acetylation modification is the most common PTM for localization sequence of HMGB1, and the affinity of HMGB1 to DNA depends on the degree of acetylation for HMGB1. The acetylation can weaken the binding of HMGB1 to DNA, which means less HMGB1 cytosol translocation and extracellular release. This article reviews the acetylation regulation mechanisms of cytosol translocation and extracellular release of HMGB1 and provides a therapeutic strategy for controlling HMGB1-induced inflammatory responses in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhancing autophagy after traumatic brain injury (TBI) may decrease the expression of neuronal apoptosis-related molecules. Autophagy-mediated neuronal survival is regulated by the sirtuin family of proteins (SIRT). Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFA) are known to have antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. We previously demonstrated that ω-3 PUFA supplementation attenuated neuronal apoptosis by modulating the neuroinflammatory response through SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway, leading to neuroprotective effects following experimental traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, no studies have elucidated if the neuroprotective effects of ω-3 PUFAs against TBI-induced neuronal apoptosis are modulated by SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of the autophagy pathway. METHODS The Feeney DM TBI model was adopted to induce TBI rats. Modified neurological severity scores, the rotarod test, brain water content, and Nissl staining were employed to determine the neuroprotective effects of ω-3 PUFA supplementation. Immunofluorescent staining and western blot analysis were used to detect Beclin-1 nuclear translocation and autophagy pathway activation. The impact of SIRT1 deacetylase activity on Beclin-1 acetylation and the interaction between cytoplasmic Beclin-1 and Bcl-2 were assessed to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of ω-3 PUFAs and to determine if these effects were dependent on SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of the autophagy pathway in order to gain further insight into the mechanisms underlying the development of neuroprotection after TBI. RESULTS ω-3 PUFA supplementation protected neurons against TBI-induced neuronal apoptosis via enhancement of the autophagy pathway. We also found that treatment with ω-3 PUFA significantly increased the NAD+/NADH ratio and SIRT1 activity following TBI. In addition, ω-3 PUFA supplementation increased Beclin-1 deacetylation and its nuclear export and induced direct interactions between cytoplasmic Beclin-1 and Bcl-2 by increasing SIRT1 activity following TBI. These events led to the inhibition of neuronal apoptosis and to neuroprotective effects through enhancing autophagy after TBI, possibly due to elevated SIRT1. CONCLUSIONS ω-3 PUFA supplementation attenuated TBI-induced neuronal apoptosis by inducing the autophagy pathway through the upregulation of SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of Beclin-1.

High-fat-diet-induced inflammation depresses the appetite of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) through the transcriptional regulation of leptin/mammalian target of rapamycin. Br J Nutr 2018; 120:1422-1431.

Abstract
The aim of this article was to investigate the mechanism of appetite suppression induced by high-fat diets (HFD) in blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala). Fish (average initial weight 40·0 (sem 0·35) g) were fed diets with two fat levels (6 and 11 %) with four replicates. HFD feeding for 30 d could significantly increase the weight gain rate, but feeding for 60 d cannot. Food intake of M. amblycephala began to decline significantly in fish fed the HFD for 48 d. HFD feeding for 60 d significantly reduced the expression of neuropeptide Y and elevated the expression of cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART), actions both in favour of suppression of appetite. The activation of fatty acid sensing was partly responsible for the weakened appetite. In addition, inflammatory factors induced by the HFD may be involved in the regulation of appetite by increasing the secretion of leptin and then activating the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 2·0 mg/kg of fish weight) was administered to induce inflammation, and sampling was performed after 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 and 48 h of LPS injection. Within 6-24 h of LPS injection, the food intake and appetite of M. amblycephala decreased significantly, whereas the mRNA expression of leptin and mTOR increased significantly. Our results indicate that inflammatory cytokines may be the cause of appetite suppression in M. amblycephala fed a HFD.

Abstract
Background Microglial polarization and the subsequent neuroinflammatory response are contributing factors for traumatic brain injury (TBI)-induced secondary injury. High mobile group box 1 (HMGB1) mediates the activation of the NF-κB pathway, and it is considered to be pivotal in the late neuroinflammatory response. Activation of the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway is closely related to HMGB1 acetylation, which is regulated by the sirtuin (SIRT) family of proteins. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFA) are known to have antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. We previously demonstrated that ω-3 PUFA inhibited TBI-induced microglial activation and the subsequent neuroinflammatory response by regulating the HMGB1/NF-κB signaling pathway. However, no studies have elucidated if ω-3 PUFA affects the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway in a HMGB1 deacetylation of dependent SIRT1 manner, thus regulating microglial polarization and the subsequent neuroinflammatory response. Methods The Feeney DM TBI model was adopted to induce brain injury in rats. Modified neurological severity scores, rotarod test, brain water content, and Nissl staining were employed to determine the neuroprotective effects of ω-3 PUFA supplementation. Assessment of microglia polarization and pro-inflammatory markers, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and HMGB1, were used to evaluate the neuroinflammatory responses and the anti-inflammatory effects of ω-3 PUFA supplementation. Immunofluorescent staining and western blot analysis were used to detect HMGB1 nuclear translocation, secretion, and HMGB1/NF-κB signaling pathway activation to evaluate the effects of ω-3 PUFA supplementation. The impact of SIRT1 deacetylase activity on HMGB1 acetylation and the interaction between HMGB1 and SIRT1 were assessed to evaluate anti-inflammation effects of ω-3 PUFAs, and also, whether these effects were dependent on a SIRT1-HMGB1/NF-κB axis to gain further insight into the mechanisms underlying the development of the neuroinflammatory response after TBI. Results The results of our study showed that ω-3 PUFA supplementation promoted a shift from the M1 microglial phenotype to the M2 microglial phenotype and inhibited microglial activation, thus reducing TBI-induced inflammatory factors. In addition, ω-3 PUFA-mediated downregulation of HMGB1 acetylation and its extracellular secretion was found to be likely due to increased SIRT1 activity. We also found that treatment with ω-3 PUFA inhibited HMGB1 acetylation and induced direct interactions between SIRT1 and HMGB1 by elevating SIRT1 activity following TBI. These events lead to inhibition of HMGB1 nucleocytoplasmic translocation/extracellular secretion and alleviated HMGB1-mediated activation of the NF-κB pathway following TBI-induced microglial activation, thus inhibiting the subsequent inflammatory response. Conclusions The results of this study suggest that ω-3 PUFA supplementation attenuates the inflammatory response by modulating microglial polarization through SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway, leading to neuroprotective effects following experimental traumatic brain injury.
