Dutta A, Dahiya A. Quercetin 3-O rutinoside prevents gastrointestinal injury through regulation of apoptosis in 7.5 Gy total body irradiated mice. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 112:154692. [PMID: 36863087 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2023.154692] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Revised: 01/02/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the heightened threat to unforeseen nuclear/radiological exposures worldwide, no countermeasures are currently approved to prevent gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity induced by radiation in humans. PURPOSE In this study, we aim to establish the gastroprotective role of flavonoid, Quercetin-3-O-rutinoside (Q-3-R) against 7.5 Gy total body gamma radiation dose that contributes to the hematopoietic syndrome. METHODS Q-3-R (10 mg/kg body weight) was administered intramuscularly to C57BL/6 male mice before exposure to 7.5 Gy and monitored for morbidity and mortality. The GI protection against radiation was ascertained by histopathological and xylose absorption studies. Intestinal apoptosis, crypt proliferation and apoptotic signaling were also investigated in different treatment groups. RESULTS We found that Q-3-R prevented the radiation-induced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, maintained ATP levels, regulated the apoptotic pathway, and activated crypt cell proliferation in the intestine. Radiation-induced villi and crypt damage as well as mal-absorption were significantly minimized in the Q-3-R treated group. We observed 100% survival post Q-3-R administration against 33.3% lethality in 7.5 Gy (LD33.3/30) exposed C57BL/6 mice. The Q-3-R pre-treated mice that survived the 7.5 Gy dose revealed no pathological changes related to the development of fibrosis in the intestine and thickened mucosal wall till 4 months post irradiation. Complete hematopoietic recovery was observed in these surviving mice when compared to age matched control. CONCLUSION The findings revealed that Q-3-R regulated the apoptotic process to achieve GI protection against LD33.3/30 dose (7.5 Gy) that primarily caused death due to hematopoietic failure. The recovery observed in mice survivors suggested that this molecule may also have the potential to minimize side effects on normal tissues during radiotherapy.

Abstract
Dendrobium officinale is an orchid with medicinal and nutritional properties that has received increasing attention because of its health benefits; however, there is limited information about the metabolic basis of these properties. In this report, secondary metabolites and the antioxidant activity of D. officinale stem samples from three provenances were analyzed, using a UHPLC-QqQ-MS/MS-based metabolomics approach. In total, 411 metabolites were identified including 8 categories such as flavonoids and phenolic acids, 136 of which were differential metabolites. These differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs) were mainly enriched in secondary metabolic pathways such as flavone, flavonol, tropane, piperidine, pyridine, isoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis and tyrosine metabolism. The metabolomic profiling suggested that the quantity and content of flavonoid compounds accounted for the highest proportion of total metabolites. Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) showed that the marker metabolites of D. officinale from the three provenances were mainly flavonoids, alkaloids and phenolic acids. Correlation analysis identified that 48 differential metabolites showed a significant positive correlation with antioxidant capacity (r ³ 0.8 and p < 0.0092), and flavonoids were the main factors affecting the different antioxidant activities. It is worth noting that quercetin-3-O-sophoroside-7-O-rhamnoside and dihydropinosylvin methyl ether might be the main compounds causing the differences in antioxidant capacity of Yunnan provenance (YN), Zhejiang provenance (ZJ), and Guizhou provenance (GZ). These finding provides valuable information for screening varieties, quality control and product development of D. officinale.

Abstract
Radiation-induced hematopoietic dysfunction is one of the most common problems during unplanned radiation exposures and also in cancer patients receiving radiotherapy. Management of the hematopoietic system is necessary to promote survival against radiation. The present study was undertaken to demonstrate the protective potential of Quercetin 3 rutinoside (Q-3-R), against gamma radiation-induced hematopoietic injuries. C57BL/6 male mice exposed either to radiation or pretreated with Q-3-R (10 mg/kg body weight) were checked for hematopoietic protection using hematotoxicity indices, histopathological, and genotoxic evaluations. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms of Q-3-R mediated hematopoietic protection, oxidative/nitrosative stress, inflammatory and apoptotic markers as well as PCNA expression in spleen cross-sections were assessed. Studies revealed Q-3-R pretreatment inhibited radiation-induced ROS in spleen cells and better maintained the total antioxidant levels in serum that were otherwise altered post 7.5 Gy exposure. The NO levels and nitrotyrosine expression were also found inhibited by Q-3-R in the spleen. Differential regulations of Bcl2, Bax and NF-κB with reduced serum TNF-α level indicated anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory roles of Q-3-R. Q-3-R attenuated radiation mediated spleen damage by minimizing cell death and promoting proliferation. Restoration of abnormal histopathological changes in bone marrow following Q-3-R administration correlated to reduced apoptosis and altered cell cycle distributions. Chromosomal aberrations were also found reduced in Q-3-R pretreated bone marrow. Q-3-R restored the total leukocyte counts and serum IL-6 levels, further supporting its role in promoting hematopoiesis. These findings suggest that Q-3-R can potentially be used to minimize radiation inflicted hematopoietic toxicities during accidental as well as radiotherapy scenarios.

Abstract
Radiation-induced intestinal injury is one of the major side effects in patients receiving radiation therapy. There is no specific treatment for radiation enteritis in the clinic. We designed and synthesized a new compound named XH-105, which is expected to cleave into polyphenol and aminothiol in vivo to mitigate radiation injury. In the following study, we describe the beneficial effects of XH-105 against radiation-induced intestinal injury. C57BL/6J mice were treated by gavage with XH-105 1 hour before total body irradiation (TBI), and the survival rate was monitored. Histological changes were examined, and survival of Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells Ki67+ cells, villi+ enterocytes and lysozymes was determined by immunohistochemistry. DNA damage and cellular apoptosis in intestinal tissue were also evaluated. Compared to vehicle-treated mice after TBI, XH-105 treatment significantly enhanced the survival rate, attenuated structural damage of the small intestine, decreased the apoptotic rate, reduced DNA damage, maintained cell regeneration and promoted crypt proliferation and differentiation. XH-105 also reduced the expression of Bax and p53 in the small intestine. These data suggest that XH-105 is beneficial for the protection of radiation-induced intestinal injury by inhibiting the p53-dependent apoptosis signalling pathway.

Abstract
Background Radiation-induced intestinal injury is one of the side effects in patients receiving radiotherapy. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of XH-103 on radiation-induced small intestinal injury and to explore its mechanism. Methods C57BL/6N mice were irradiated and treated with XH-103. Firstly, the survival rate of mice exposed to 9.0 Gy and 11.0 Gy total body irradiation (TBI) was examined. Subsequently, at 3.5 d after IR, the small intestinal morphological changes were examined by HE. The numbers of crypt cells, the villus height, the expression of Ki67 and Lgr5, and the apoptotic cells in the intestinal crypts were examined by immunohistochemistry. Furthermore, the expression of p53 and Bax was analyzed by WB. Results Compared to the irradiation group, XH-103 improved the mice survival rate, protected the intestinal morphology of mice, decreased the apoptotic rate of intestinal crypt cells, maintained cell regeneration, and promoted crypt proliferation and differentiation. XH-103 also reduced the expression of p53 and Bax in the small intestine compared to the IR group. Conclusion These data demonstrate that XH-103 can prevent radiation-induced intestinal injury, which is beneficial for the protection of radiation injuries.

Abstract
Normal tissue damage from ionizing radiation during radiotherapy is a major concern in cancer treatment. Tea polyphenols (TPs) have been shown to reduce radiation-induced damage in multiple studies, but their pharmacological application is still limited due to poor bioavailability. The present study was aimed at to increase the TPs bioavailability by nanoformulation by using BSA as the matrix and chitosan as the external shell. Encapsulated TPs nanoparticles were spherical in size and promoted TPs stability in normal and gastrointestinal conditions without losing antioxidant activity. Oral administration of nanoparticles for 3 days prior to irradiation exposure has been shown to protect mice from hematological injuries that result in the reduction of radiation-induced lethality. TPs reduce radiation-induced oxidative damage and apoptosis by restoring the redox status through the Nrf2-ERK pathway and reducing Bax expression, respectively. Regarding potency, encapsulated TPs have shown a significantly higher level of radioprotection than TPs, suggesting that TP nanoparticles can be explored as valuable radioprotective and pharmacotherapeutic agent.

Abstract
Glutathione disulfide mimetic (NOV-002) is a complex of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) formulated with cisplatin at approximately 1000:1 molar ratio. Cisplatin serves to stabilize GSSG but does not assert any therapeutic effect. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of NOV-002 on hematological suppression, excessive free radical damage and DNA fragmentation in splenocytes, and metabolite disorders in whole-body γ-irradiated rats. The obtained data revealed that rats treated with 25 mg kg(-1) NOV-002 injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) for 5 days after whole-body γ-irradiation (IR) at 6.5 Gy attenuated the decrease of red blood cells, platelets, total white blood cells, absolute lymphocytes and neutrophils counts, hematocrit value, and hemoglobin content. NOV-002 treatment inhibits serum advanced oxidation protein products, malondialdehyde concentrations as well as cholesterol, triglycerides, urea, and creatinine levels, while enhances glutathione content and superoxide dismutase activity and improves DNA fragmentation in splenocytes. These findings provide a better understanding of the NOV-002 modulating impact in whole-body γ-rays-induced hematological toxicities, oxidative stress, and biological disturbances in γ-irradiated rats and could enhance the tolerance to high doses of ionizing IR utilized in radiotherapy.
