Abstract
Inflammation is a complex process of the body in response to pathogen infections or dysregulated metabolism, involving the recruitment and activation of immune system components. Repeated dangerous stimuli or uncontrolled immune effector mechanisms can result in tissue injury. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) play key roles in physiological cell signaling as well as in the destruction of internalized pathogens. However, aberrant ROS production and release have deleterious effects on the surrounding environment, making ROS regulation a priority to reduce inflammation. Most of the current anti-inflammatory therapies rely on drugs that impair the release of pro-inflammatory mediators. Nevertheless, increasing the enzymatic activity to reduce ROS levels could be an alternative or complementary therapeutic approach to decrease inflammation. Nanozymes are nanomaterials with high catalytic activity that mimic natural enzymes, allowing biochemical reactions to take place. Such functional particles typically show different and regenerable oxidation states or catalytically reactive surfaces offering long-term activity and stability. In this scenario, platinum-based nanozymes (PtNZs) exhibit broad and efficient catalytic functionalities and can reduce inflammation mainly through ROS scavenging, e.g. by catalase and superoxide dismutase reactions. Dose-dependent biocompatibility and immune compatibility of PtNZs have been shown in different cells and tissues, both in vitro and in vivo. Size/shape/surface engineering of the nanozymes could also potentiate their efficacy to act at different sites and/or steps of the inflammation process, such as cytokine removal or specific targeting of activated leukocytes. In the present review, we analyze key inflammation triggering processes and the effects of platinum nanozymes under exemplificative inflammatory conditions. We further discuss potential platinum nanozyme design and improvements to modulate and expand their anti-inflammatory action.

Abstract
So far, it was supposed that the increase of electrical impedance following cochlear implant (CI) insertion was due to technical defects of the electrode, inflammatory and/or formation of scar tissue along the electrode. However, it was recently reported that corrosion of the platinum electrode contacts may be the reason for high impedances. It could be shown that platinum particles were stripped from the electrode surfaces. Its potential cytotoxic effects within the inner ear remains to be examined. In this study in vitro cell culture models of the mouse organ of Corti cell line (HEI-OC1) and the spiral ganglion (SG) cells derived from the cochleae neonatal rats were used to investigate the effects of the polyvinylpyrrolidone coated platinum nanoparticles (Pt-NPPVP, 3 nm) on cell metabolism, neuronal survival and neurite outgrowth. Our data revealed no decrease of the metabolic activity of the HEI-OC1 cells at Pt-NPPVP concentrations between 50-150 μg/ml. Also, staining with Calcein AM/EthD demonstrated prevalent presence of vital cells. As shown by transmission electron microscopy no Pt-NPPVP could be found at the cell surface or in the cytosol of the HEI-OC1 cells. Similarly, the SG cells exposed to 20-100 μg/ml Pt-NPPVP did not show any reduced survival rate and neurite outgrowth following staining of the neurofilament antigen even at the highest Pt-NPPVP concentration. Although the SG cells were exposed to Pt-NPPVP for further 72 h and 96 h immunocytochemical staining of the glial cells and fibroblasts presented normal cell morphology and growth independently of the cultivation period. Our data indicates that the used Pt-NPPVP do not trigger the cellular uptake and, thus, presumable do not initiate apoptotic pathways in cells of the organ of Corti cell line or the auditory nerve. The protection mechanisms to the Pt-NPPVP interactions remain to be clarified.

Abstract
Previously, we showed that the growth, antibiotic resistance, and biofilm formation properties of the pathogens Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumonia were tremendously inhibited by the cell-free supernatant of the oral probiotic Streptococcus salivarius M18. These anti-pathogenic activities of the supernatant were more efficient under acidic conditions. The present approach takes advantage of the acidic nature of the tumor microenvironment to evaluate the effect of the S. salivarius M18 postbiotics on colon cancer cells. In both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) cell culture models, S. salivarius M18 cell-free supernatant showed anti-cancer actions in the pH conditions mimicking the acidity of the tumor. The inhibitory effect was more prominent when the colon cancer cells have been treated with the cell-free supernatant obtained from the inulin incubated S. salivarius M18. The results of this study point out the potential of the S. salivarius M18 functional probiotic products to be used for targeting low pH environments including the unique acidic microenvironment of tumors.

Abstract
The production of functional foods containing prebiotic ingredients is an area of particular interest and a very promising market with the potential to dominate the food industry. This study aims to explore the potential of starch-based prebiotic tapioca and skim milk, as low-cost and easily accessible food sources and as natural and "clean label" food ingredients on the probiotic activities of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum). The results show that concomitant use of the modified tapioca starch and skim milk promotes the antibacterial and anti-cancer properties of L. plantarum post-fermentation media pointing out how the functionality of probiotic products can be regulated by growth supplements.

Platinum nanoparticles Protect Against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammation in Microglial BV-2 Cells via Decreased Oxidative Damage and Increased Phagocytosis. Neurochem Res 2021; 46:3325-3341.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress cooperate to compromise the function of the central nervous system (CNS). Colloidal platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) are ideal candidates for reducing the deleterious effects of neuroinflammation since they act as free radical scavengers. Here we evaluated the effects of Pt NPs on several markers of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in cultured BV-2 microglial cells. BV-2 cells were treated with increased dilutions (1-100 ppm) of Colloidal Pt and/or LPS (1-10 µg/mL) at different exposure times. Three different protocols of exposure were used combining Pt NPs and LPS: (a) conditioning-protective effect (pre-post-treat), (b) therapeutic effect (co-treat) and (c) conditioning-therapeutic effect (pre-co-treat). After exposure to LPS for 24 h, cells were used for assessment of cell viability, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, apoptosis and caspase-3 levels, cell proliferation, mitochondrial membrane potential, inducible nitric oxide (iNOS) activity, pro-inflammatory cytokine (IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6) levels, and phagocytic activity. Low concentrations (below or equal to 10 ppm) of Colloidal Pt prevented or ameliorated the LPS-induced increase in ROS formation, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, induction of apoptosis, increase in LDH release, increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines and iNOS, inhibition of phagocytosis linked to microglial persistence in the M1 phase phenotype, loss of cell adhesion, differentiation and/or proliferation, as well as loss of cell viability. These protective effects were evident when cells were preconditioned with Pt NPs prior to LPS treatment. Collectively, the findings demonstrate that at low concentrations, Pt NPs can regulate the function and phenotype of BV-2 cells, activating protective mechanisms to maintain the microglial homeostasis and reduce inflammatory events triggered by the inflammatory insults induced by LPS. These preventive/protective effects on the LPS pro-inflammatory model are linked to the antioxidant properties and phagocytic activity of these NPs.

Abstract
Our previous studies have shown that the environmental contaminant bisphenol A (BPA) exhibits strong intestinal toxicity and can readily cause intestinal barrier dysfunction. However, the causal relationship between adverse biological processes of BPA-induced intestinal tissue and the role of key signaling molecules in it requires further investigation. In this study, we established a mouse and intestinal epithelial cell model of BPA treatment to determine the underlying molecular mechanisms of BPA-induced intestinal injury. The results showed that the BPA treatment increased the intestinal permeability and disrupted the barrier function by increasing the chemical marker content and tight junction expression in intestinal tissues and blood circulation. BPA also altered the oxidative and antioxidant status of intestinal epithelial cells by increasing ROS and RNS contents and decreasing the activity levels of SOD, GPx, CAT, and T-AOC. BPA further induced inflammatory responses by upregulating the gene abundance of key factors of the innate immune system (TLR2, TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB), the transcriptional activity of NF-kB, and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α). Moreover, apoptosis was activated by BPA, whereas cell proliferation was inhibited by BPA. Mechanistically, co-treatment of intestinal epithelial cells with BPA using the oxidative stress scavenger NAC, the NF-κB-specific inhibitor JSH-23, and the apoptosis inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK, respectively, showed that BPA activates the innate immune response by inducing oxidative stress. Consequently, apoptosis is promoted, and cell proliferation is inhibited, ultimately disrupting the intestinal barrier function. Our findings provide insight into the pathogenesis of BPA-induced gut injury.

Citrate-Coated Platinum Nanoparticles Exhibit a Primary Particle-Size Dependent Effect on Stimulating Melanogenesis in Human Melanocytes. COSMETICS 2020.

Abstract
Hypopigmentation disorders due to an underproduction of the pigment melanin by melanocytes cause uneven skin coloration, while in hair follicles they cause grey hair. There is a need for novel materials which can stimulate melanogenesis in the skin and hair for personal care use. While titanium dioxide, gold and silver nanoparticles have been extensively used for applications in cosmetic and personal-care products (PCP), the use of relatively inert platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) has remained underappreciated. PtNPs have been reported to be a mimetic of the enzyme catechol oxidase with small size PtNPs reported to exhibit a higher catechol oxidase activity in a cell-free system, but no testing has been conducted in melanocytes to date. Herein, we have investigated if PtNPs of two sizes (SPtNP: 5 nm; LPtNP: 50 nm) might have an effect on melanogenesis. To this end, we have used MNT-1 human melanoma cells and primary human melanocytes from moderately-pigmented skin (HEMn-MP). Both SPtNP and LPtNP were nontoxic over a concentration range 6.25–25 μg/mL, hence these concentrations were used in further experiments. Both PtNPs stimulated higher extracellular melanin levels than control; SPtNP at concentrations 12.5 and 25 μg/mL significantly stimulated higher levels of extracellular melanin as compared to similar concentrations of LPtNP in MNT-1 cells, in the absence of ROS generation. The effects of PtNPs on melanin secretion were reversible upon removal of PtNPs from the culture medium. The results of primary particle size-specific augmentation of extracellular melanin by SPtNPs were also validated in HEMn-MP cells. Our results thus provide a proof-of-principle that SPtNP might hold potential as a candidate for the treatment of white skin patches, for sunless skin-tanning and for use in anti-greying hair products in cosmetics.

Curcumin ameliorates oxidative stress-induced intestinal barrier injury and mitochondrial damage by promoting Parkin dependent mitophagy through AMPK-TFEB signal pathway. Free Radic Biol Med 2020; 147:8-22.

Abstract
The gut epithelial is known as the most critical barrier for protection against harmful antigens and pathogens. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the dysfunction of the intestine barrier. Hence, effective and safe therapeutic approaches for maintaining intestinal redox balance are urgently needed. Curcumin has gained attention for its vast beneficial biological function via antioxidative stress. However, whether the curcumin can relief intestine damage and mitochondrial injury induced by oxidative stress is still unclear. In this study, we found that curcumin can effectively ameliorate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative stress, intestinal epithelial barrier injury and mitochondrial damage in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2 cells) in a PTEN-induced putative kinase (PINK1)-Parkin mitophagy dependent way. Mechanistically, depletion of Parkin (a mitophagy related protein) abolished curcumin's protective action on anti-oxidative stress, improving intestinal barrier and mitochondrial function in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) induced by H2O2. Consistently, the protective effect of curcumin was not found in cells transfected with GFP-ParkinΔUBL, which encodes a mutant Parkin protein without the ubiquitin E3 ligase activity, indicating that the ubiquitin E3 ligase of Parkin is required for curcumin's protective effects. On the other hand, we also found that the protective function of curcumin was diminished when PRKAA1 was depleted in IPEC-J2 cells treated with H2O2. Immunofluorescence and luciferase assay showed that curcumin dramatically enhanced nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity of transcription factor EB (TFEB) in IPEC-J2 cells treated with H2O2, and it was ameliorated by co-treated with compound C, an Adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor, which means curcumin promotes TFEB transcript via AMPK signal pathway. Consistent with in vitro data, dietary curcumin protected intestinal barrier function, improved redox status, alleviated mitochondrial damage, triggered mitophagy and influenced AMPK-TFEB signal pathway in a well-established pig oxidative stress model by challenging with diquat. Taken together, these results unveil that curcumin ameliorates oxidative stress, enhances intestinal barrier function and mitochondrial function via the induction of Parkin dependent mitophagy through AMPK activation and subsequent TFEB nuclear translocation.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the anti-colitis potential of platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs). MATERIALS AND METHODS 5-, 30- and 70-nm PtNPs were administered to C57BL/6 mice once daily by intragastric gavage for 8 d during and after 5-d dextran sodium sulfate treatment. RESULTS According to body weight change, stool blood and consistency, and colon length and histopathology, PtNPs size-dependently alleviated DSS-induced murine colitis. PtNPs enhanced gut-barrier function by upregulating the colonic expressions of heat-shock protein 25 and tight junction proteins. Based on colonic myeloperoxidase activity, colonic and peripheral levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α, and peripheral counts of white blood cells, PtNPs attenuated colonic and systemic inflammation. By suppressing lipopolysaccharide-triggered production of proinflammatory mediators, including nitric oxide, tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6, PtNPs exerted direct anti-inflammatory activities in RAW264.7 macrophages through a mechanism involving intracellular reactive oxygen species scavenging and Toll-like receptor 4/NF-κB signaling suppression. High-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing of fecal samples unveiled that PtNPs induced gut dysbiosis by unfavorably altering α-diversity, Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio, and richness of certain specific bacteria. CONCLUSION PtNPs are a promising anti-colitis agent, but may negatively impact gut-microbiota.

Abstract
Oxidative damages have adverse effects on mammals. Growing studies have focused on exploring new antioxidants. Here, we report that Lactobacillus frumenti increases the total antioxidation capacity activities and decreases the total reactive oxygen species levels in porcine intestinal epithelial cells. Comparative proteomics revealed that expressions of peroxiredoxin 2, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1, NAD(P)H dehydrogenase quinone 1, antioxidant protein 1, and metallothionein-2A, which are associated with antioxidant defense system, were significantly increased with L. frumenti treatment. In germ-free mice, L. frumenti treatment also remarkably improves the intestinal antioxidant capacity. We further illustrated that nitric oxide production-mediated by nitric oxide synthase 1 activation is essential for L. frumenti-induced improvements in intestinal epithelial antioxidant capacity and barrier function. This study suggested that L. frumenti may be a potential probiotic used to prevent oxidative stress-induced aging and diseases in mammals.-Nie, Y., Hu, J., Hou, Q., Zheng, W., Zhang, X., Yang, T., Ma, L., Yan, X.
