Aslan E, Boyacı MG, Güzel H, Pektaş MB. Better neuroprotective profile of caffeic acid phenyl ester over resveratrol in non-traumatic ischemia-reperfusion injury of the spinal cord. Br J Neurosurg 2024; 38:889-895. [PMID: 34879774 DOI: 10.1080/02688697.2021.1999391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Revised: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spinal cord ischemia has serious sequelae. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of resveratrol and caffeic acid phenyl ester (CAPE), a propolis derivative, on spinal cord injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion (IR). METHODS In our research, 30 male Wistar albino rats, 200-250 gr, were used. Before the experiment, during a week of the process, the rats were fed with these two agents, and the experimental group rats were exposed to spinal cord IR injury. At the end of the experiment, spinal cord samples were taken from the sacrificed rats. Bax, p53, nNOS, and Beclin-1 immunoreactivity moreover TUNEL (+) cells were evaluated with immunohistochemically in the IR-induced damaged rats. RESULTS It has been clearly determined that the TUNEL (+) apoptotic cell number and immunopositive cells of nNOS, Beclin-1, p53, Bax were raised in the IR group. However, these increments partially were restored in the resveratrol and CAPE-fed rats with IR-induced injury. CONCLUSION In light of our data, resveratrol, and CAPE could be beneficial in spinal cord IR injury. Although both agents provide beneficial effects, it can be said that CAPE is partially more effective in spinal cord injury caused by IR.

Silybin attenuates avermectin-induced oxidative damage in carp respiration by modulating the cGAS-STING pathway and endoplasmic reticulum stress. FISH PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY 2024; 50:1759-1775. [PMID: 38907741 DOI: 10.1007/s10695-024-01368-9] [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: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
Avermectin is a commonly used insect repellent for aquaculture and crops, but it is easy to remain in the aquatic environment, causing organism disorders, inflammation, and even death. This resulted in significant economic losses to the carp aquaculture industry. Silybin has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties. However, it is unclear whether Silybin counteracts gill damage caused by avermectin exposure. Therefore, we modeled avermectin exposure and Silybin intervention by adding 2.404 μg/L avermectin to water and 400 mg/kg of Silybin to feed. Gill tissue was collected and analyzed in depth during a 30-day experimental period. The results showed that avermectin exposure induced structural disorganization of gill filaments and led to increased reactive oxygen species, inhibition of antioxidant functions, induction of inflammatory responses, and endoplasmic reticulum stress in addition to the endogenous apoptotic pathway. In contrast, Silybin effectively alleviated pathological changes and reduced reactive oxygen species levels, thereby attenuating oxidative stress and endogenous apoptosis and inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress pathways. In addition, Silybin reduced avermectin-induced gill tissue inflammation in carp, and it is considered that it might modulate the cGAS-STING pathway. In summary, Silybin alleviates avermectin-induced oxidative damage within the carp's respiratory system by modulating the cGAS-STING pathway and endoplasmic reticulum stress. The main goal is to understand how Silybin reduces oxidative damage caused by avermectin in carp gills, offering management strategies. Concurrently, the current study proposes that Silybin can serve as a dietary supplement to reduce the risks brought on by repellent buildup in freshwater aquaculture.

Pharmacotherapeutic potential of malvidin to cure imidacloprid induced hepatotoxicity via regulating PI3K/AKT, Nrf-2/Keap-1 and NF-κB pathway. Food Chem Toxicol 2024; 190:114816. [PMID: 38880465 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2024.114816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024]
Abstract
Imidacloprid (IMI) is one of the top-notch insecticides that adversely affects the body organs including the liver. Malvidin (MAL) is a natural flavonoid which exhibits a wide range of pharmacological properties. This research was designed to evaluate the protective ability of MAL to counteract IMI instigated liver toxicity in rats. Thirty-two rats were divided into four groups including control, IMI (5mg/kg), IMI (5mg/kg) + MAL (10mg/kg) and MAL (10mg/kg) alone treated group. The recommended dosages were administrated through oral gavage for 4 weeks. It was revealed that IMI intoxication disrupted the PI3K/AKT and Nrf-2/Keap-1 pathway. Furthermore, the activities of catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD), heme-oxygenase-1 (OH-1) and glutathione reductase (GSR) were reduced while upregulating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels after IMI treatment. Moreover, IMI poisoning increased the levels of ALT (Alanine aminotransferase), AST (Aspartate transaminase), and ALP (Alkaline phosphatase) while reducing the levels of total proteins and albumin in hepatic tissues of rats. Besides, IMI administration escalated the expressions of Bcl-2-associated protein x (Bax) and cysteine-aspartic acid protease-3 (Caspase-3) while downregulating the expressions of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2). Similarly, IMI intoxication, increased the levels of Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and the activity of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Furthermore, IMI disrupted the normal architecture of hepatic tissues. However, MAL treatment remarkably protected the liver tissues via regulating abovementioned disruptions.

Caffeic acid modulates activation of neutrophils and attenuates sepsis-induced organ injury by inhibiting 5-LOX/LTB4 pathway. Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 125:111143.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis is a critical systemic inflammatory syndrome which usually leads to multiple organ dysfunction. Caffeic acid (CA), a phenolic compound derived from various plants, has been proved to be essential in neuroprotection, but its role in septic organ damage is unclear. This research aimed to investigate whether CA protects against organ injury in a mouse model of cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). METHODS CA (30 mg/kg) or vehicle was administered by intraperitoneal injection immediately after CLP. The samples of blood, lungs, and livers were collected 24 h later. Organ injury was assessed by histopathological examination (HE staining), neutrophil infiltration (myeloperoxidase fluorescence), oxidative stress levels (MDA, SOD, HO-1), and inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) release in lung and liver tissues. Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation was analyzed by immunofluorescence. In vitro experiments were performed to investigate the potential mechanisms of CA using small interfering RNA (siRNA) techniques in neutrophils, and the effect of CA on neutrophil apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS Results showed that CA treatment improved the 7-day survival rate and attenuated the histopathological injury in the lung and liver of CLP mice. CA significantly reduced neutrophil infiltration in the lungs and livers of CLP mice. TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and LTB4 were reduced in serum, lung, and liver of CA-treated CLP mice, and phosphorylation of MAPK (p38, ERK, JNK) and p65 NF-κB was inhibited in lungs and livers. CA treatment further increased HO-1 levels and enhanced superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, but reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and NET formation. Similarly, in vitro experiments showed that CA treatment and 5-LOX siRNA interference inhibited inflammatory activation and NET release in neutrophils, suppressed MAPK and NF-κB phosphorylation in LPS-treated neutrophils, and decreased LTB4 and cfDNA levels. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that CA treatment reversed LPS-mediated delayed apoptosis in human neutrophils, and Western blot also indicated that CA treatment inhibited Bcl-2 expression but increased Bax expression. CA treatment did not induce further changes in neutrophil apoptosis, inflammatory activation, and NET release when 5-LOX was knocked down by siRNA interference. CONCLUSIONS CA has a protective effect on lung and liver injury in a murine model of sepsis, which may be related to inhibition of the 5-LOX/LTB4 pathway.

Resveratrol improves emamectin benzoate-induced pyroptosis and inflammation of Ctenopharyngodon idellus hepatic cells by alleviating oxidative stress/endoplasmic reticulum stress. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 142:109148.

Abstract
Emamectin benzoate (EMB) is the most widely used pesticide in the world and contributes to water pollution. Owing to the lack of a specific antidote, EMB has a severe negative impact on the health of aquatic organisms. Resveratrol (RES), a substance with antioxidant capacity, is secreted by the fruits of many plants. This study was to explore the protection of RES against EMB-induced pyroptosis and inflammatory response in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) hepatic liver (L8824) cells by oxidative stress/endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The results showed that compared to the CON group, EMB induced oxidative stress in L8824 cells with the increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS), methane dicarboxylic aldehyde (MDA), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) contents and the decrease of total superoxide dismutase (t-sod) and glutathione peroxidase (gsh-px) activities (P < 0.05). In addition, EMB triggered ERS, increasing the relative mRNA expression of protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (perk), inositol requiring enzyme 1 alpha (ire1α), glucose-regulated protein 78 (grp78), activating transcription factor 4 (atf4), activating transcription factor 6 (atf6), and CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (chop) and the protein expression of eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eif2α), chop, atf6, and atf4. Meanwhile, EMB further induced pyroptosis by upregulating the mRNA and protein expression of nlrp3, aptamer protein (asc), caspase-1, gsdmd, interleukin-1β (il-1β), and interleukin-18 (il-18). EMB also induced inflammation in L8824 cells by increasing the mRNA expression of interleukin-2 (il-2), interleukin-6 (il-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (tnf-α), and ifn-γ and decreasing the content of interleukin-10 (il-10). However, compared to the EMB group, the oxidant indices and expression of genes related to ER stress, pyroptosis, and pro-inflammatory factors were significantly down-regulated (P < 0.05), whereas the antioxidant indicators and anti-inflammatory factor were significantly up-regulated in the EMB + RES group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, EMB caused hepatocytes pyroptosis and inflammation in grass carp, and RES could alleviate EMB-induced pyroptosis and inflammation in L8824 cells by ameliorating oxidative stress/ER stress.

Abstract
Imidacloprid (IMI) is an endogenous neonicotinoid insecticide widely used in agriculture and has attracted researchers' attention because of its risks to the environment and human health. Melatonin (MT) is an antioxidant hormone produced by the pineal gland of the brain. Studies have shown that it has a variety of physiological functions and plays a crucial role in the development of animal germ cells and embryos. The potential protective effects of MT against oocyte damage caused by neonicotinoid pesticide toxicity remain unclear. In this study, we report the toxicity of IMI against, and its effects on the quality of, porcine oocytes and the protective effect of MT on IMI-exposed oocytes. The results show that IMI exposure adversely affected oocyte maturation, while MT supplementation ameliorated its toxic effects. Specifically, IMI exposure increased oxidative stress (OS), endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), and apoptosis, which may affect polar body expulsion rates and blastocyst formation. Also, IMI exposure reduced oocyte cleavage rates and the number of cells in blastocysts. However, all of these toxic effects can be restored after a melatonin supplementation treatment. In conclusion, these results suggest that melatonin has a protective effect on IMI-induced defects during porcine oocyte maturation.

Abstract
λ-Cyhalothrin, a type II synthetic pyrethroid, has been widely used in households, agriculture, public health, and gardening to control insect pests. Despite its widespread usage, it is known to induce a variety of adverse effects, including hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The goal of this study was to investigate the protective effect of carvacrol, which has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and some other properties, on λ-Cyhalothrin-induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity 35 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups for this purpose: I-Control group: II-CRV group (50 mg/kg carvacrol), III-LCT group (6.23 mg/kg LCT), IV-LCT + CRV 25 group (6.23 mg/kg LCT + 25 mg/kg carvacrol), and V-LCT + CRV 50 group (6.23 mg/kg LCT + 50 mg/kg carvacrol). Using biochemical, real-time PCR, and western blotting methods, the collected tissues were analyzed. While λ-Cyhalothrin treatment increased MDA levels, which are indicated of lipid peroxidation, but reduced SOD, CAT, GPx activities, and GSH levels. After receiving carvacrol therapy, the degree of oxidative stress reduced as the values of these parameters approached those of the control group. Increased inflammation, apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and autophagy with λ-Cyhalothrin administration reduced with carvacrol co-administration, and liver and kidney tissues were protected from damage, depending on the degree of oxidative stress. After considering all of these data, it was discovered that λ-Cyhalothrin-induced oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and autophagy in the liver and kidneys; however, carvacrol protected the tissues from damage. Our findings indicate that carvacrol may be a promising protective agent in λ-Cyhalothrin-induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
Pesticides can cause serious environmental and human health consequences such as metabolic disruption and even cancers. Preventive molecules such as vitamins can be an effective solution. The present study aimed to investigate the toxic effect of an insecticide mixture formulation of lambda cyhalothrin and chlorantraniliprole (Ampligo® 150 ZC), on the liver of male rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and the possible ameliorative effect of vitamins A, D3, E, and C mixture. For that, 18 male rabbits were divided into 3 equal groups: Control (distilled water), AP (20 mg/Kg bw of the insecticide mixture every other day, orally for 28 days), AP+ADEC (20 mg/Kg bw of the insecticide mixture + 0,5 ml of vitamin AD3E+ 200 mg/kg bw of vitamin C every other day). The effects were evaluated on body weight, food intake changes, biochemical parameters, liver histology, and immunohistochemical expression of AFP, Bcl2, E-cadherin, Ki67, and P53. Results indicated that AP reduced weight gain (6.71%) and feed intake, increased ALT, ALP, and TC plasma levels, and caused hepatic tissular damages such as dilatation and congestion of the central vein, sinusoidal dilatation, inflammatory cells infiltration, and collagen deposition. Hepatic immunostaining showed an increase in the tissular expression of AFP, Bcl2, Ki67, and P53 and a significant (p < 0,05) decrease in E-cadherin expression. In contrast, supplementation of vitamins A, D3, E, and C mixture improved the previous observed alterations. Our study revealed that a sub-acute exposure to an insecticide mixture of lambda cyhalothrin and chlorantraniliprole induced numerous functional and structural disorders in the rabbit liver and the addition of vitamins ameliorated these damages.

Abstract
Widely used malathion (MLT) causes environmental pollution, leading to toxicity in many living things, including humans. Rutin (RUT) is a flavonoid with various biological properties. In the present study, the protective effects of rutin against liver and kidney toxicity caused by malathion were investigated. In the study, MLT (100 mg/kg) and RUT (50 or 100 mg/kg) were administered to rats alone or in combination for 28 days. Then, oxidative stress, inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), apoptosis, and autophagy markers in liver and kidney tissues were analyzed by biochemical and molecular methods. The results showed that MLT caused oxidative stress in both tissues, while RUT showed antioxidant properties and protected these tissues from oxidative damage. Moreover, MLT upregulated the expressions of ATF-6, PERK, IRE1, GRP78, and CHOP, leading to ERS. However, RUT alleviated ER stress and suppressed these markers. The study also found that MLT increased inflammatory, apoptotic, and autophagic markers. All these factors affected liver and kidney functions and caused an increase in plasma ALT, AST, urea, and creatinine levels. On the other hand, it has been observed that RUT may protect liver and kidney tissues from the destructive effect of MLT by showing anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and anti-autophagic properties. Thus, it was determined that ALT, AST, urea, and creatinine levels decreased after RUT treatment. As a result, it was observed that MLT had a toxic effect on the liver and kidney tissues of rats, and it was determined that this toxicity could be alleviated by RUT treatment.

Abstract
Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), a main active component of propolis and a flavonoid, is one of the natural products that has attracted attention in recent years. CAPE, which has many properties such as anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-fungal, has shown many pharmacological potentials, including protective effects on multiple organs. Interestingly, molecular docking studies showed the possibility of binding of CAPE with replication enzyme. In addition, it was seen that in order to increase the binding security of the replication enzyme and CAPE, modifications can be made at three sites on the CAPE molecule, which leads to the possibility of the compound working more powerfully and usefully to prevent the proliferation of cancer cells and reduce its rate. Also, it was found that CAPE has an inhibitory effect against the main protease enzyme and may be effective in the treatment of SARS-CoV-2. This review covers in detail the importance of CAPE in alternative medicine, its pharmacological value, its potential as a cancer anti-proliferative agent, its dual role in radioprotection and radiosensitization, and its use against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Abstract
Delayed wound healing is a serious complication of diabetes and a main reason for foot amputation. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is a main active constituent of honeybee propolis with reported appealing pharmacological activities. In the current study, CAPE was loaded onto PEG-PLGA nanoparticles and showed a particle size of 198 ± 7.3 nm and polydispersity index of 0.43 ± 0.04. An in vivo study was performed to appraise the wound-healing activity of CAPE-loaded PEG-PLGA nanoparticles (CAPE-NPs) in diabetic rats. Wound closure was significantly accelerated in rats treated with CAPE-NPs. This was confirmed via histological examinations of skin tissues that indicated expedited healing and enhanced collagen deposition. This was accompanied by observed antioxidant activity as evidenced by the prevention of lipid peroxidation and the exhaustion of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities. In addition, CAPE-NPs showed superior anti-inflammatory activity as compared with the regular formula of CAPE, as they prevented the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) as well as tumor necrosis-alpha (TNF-α). The pro-collagen actions of CAPE-NPs were highlighted by the enhanced hyroxyproline content and up-regulation of Col 1A1 mRNA expression. Furthermore, the immunohistochemial assessment of skin tissues indicated that CAPE-NPs enhance proliferation and angiogenesis, as shown by the increased expression of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and platelet-derived growth factor subunit B (PDGF-B). In conclusion, CAPE-loaded PEG-PLGA nanoparticles possess potent healing effects in diabetic wounds. This is mediated, at least partially, by its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and pro-collagen as well as angiogenic activities.

Abstract
Imidacloprid (IMI), one of the most frequently used neonicotinoid insecticides in agriculture, is resided in surface water worldwide and poses a threat to aquatic organisms. Melatonin (MT) provides effective protection against insecticide-induced toxicity, nevertheless, the toxic effects and whether MT attenuates intestinal injury caused by IMI exposure in the common carps remains poorly explored. Previous studies have reported adverse effects of IMI exposure on intestinal health status. Therefore, we first demonstrated that IMI altered the composition and function of the intestinal microbiota, destroying the integrity of intestinal ultrastructure, increasing intestinal permeability. Meanwhile, metagenomic sequencing and ELISA kits results hypothesized that peptidoglycan (PGN) is an IMI-triggered intestinal microbial metabolite. Subsequently, we thus further elucidated that IMI induced an increase in intestinal tight junction permeability by inducing PGN secretion in vitro model. MT addition dramatically attenuated IMI-induced intestinal toxicity by remitting PGN synthesis and thus resecuring tight junction permeability, thereby reducing intestinal injury. SB203580 was supplied as a P38MAPK inhibitor to alleviate the increased permeability of tight junctions induced by IMI/PGN. Therefore, these findings confirmed that MT protects against IMI-induced intestinal injury by negatively regulating PGN/P38MAPK pathway to antagonize the increased tight junction permeability.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CPF), as an extensively used organophosphorus pesticide, often remains on food surfaces or contaminates water sources. CPF can cause many toxic effects on human production and life. As an additional product of non-medicinal parts of ginseng, the pharmacological activity of ginseng stem and leaf total saponin (GSLS) has been verified and applied in recent years. This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of GSLS on CPF-induced liver damage in mice. Experimental results in vivo demonstrate that GSLS can reduce the accumulation of oxidation product MDA by relieving CPF-induced liver function indicators in mice and enhancing the antioxidant enzyme SOD and CAT activities of mice. With the decrease in mRNA expression of BAX, NF-KB, and TIMP in liver tissues, the mRNA expression of Nrf-2, HO-1, and XIAP increased. Through anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and other effects, cpf-induced hepatotoxicity can be alleviated by GSLS. In vitro experiments have proved that GSLS can show the ability to scavenge DPPH free radicals and hydroxyl radicals. In addition, GSLS can alleviate chlorpyrifos-induced ROS accumulation in L02 cells, alleviating cytokinetic potential reduction. In summary, by fighting oxidative stress, GSLS can alleviate liver damage caused by CPF.

Abstract
Imidacloprid (IMI), a systemic neonicotinoid insecticide widely used in agriculture, resulting in persistence in aquatic environments that threaten the survival of organisms. Eucalyptol (EUC), a monoterpenoid found in plants, can be applied to medicine, food, and aquaculture. However, the potential protective effects of EUC on cell damage under neonicotinoid pesticide toxicity, and the role of ER stress and its mediated apoptosis and necroptosis in it, remain unclear. Therefore, we treated Ctenopharyngodon idellus kidney (CIK) cells with 20 mg/L IMI and 20 μM EUC for 48 h. The results showed that IMI exposure caused a higher GRP78 levels, activated ATF6, PERK-eIF2α and IRE1-XBP1 pathways, led to the decline of ATPase activities and ATP content, induced the expression of cytokine (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and INF-γ), triggered BCL2/BAX-mediated apoptosis and RIP1/RIP3/MLKL-dependent necroptosis in the CIK cell line. Surprisingly, EUC had an effect against IMI-induced cytotoxicity, showing that it effectively mitigated the above-mentioned IMI-exposure-induced changes. Taken together, these results suggested that EUC could alleviated IMI-induced cell death and dysimmunity by recovering ER stress/mitochondria imbalance. These results partly explained the mechanism of biological threat on fish under IMI exposure and the potential application value of EUC in aquaculture.

Abstract
Liquid preservation of boar sperm is crucial for artificial insemination application in pig production. However, time-dependent oxidative damage to sperm is one of the major challenges during the liquid preservation period. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) possesses excellent antioxidant properties and has potential therapeutic use in reproductive organ injury linked to oxidative stress. Adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) involves in modulating the cellular redox state and exerts a beneficial effect on sperm preservation. In the present study, we firstly assessed different concentrations of CAPE that affect sperm quality during liquid storage to determine the appropriate addition. To further investigate whether CAPE exerts protective effects on boar sperm through modulation of AMPK activity, sperm quality parameters, antioxidant capacity, and marker protein expressions were evaluated under co-incubation with H2O2. The results showed that sperm treated with 210 μmol/L CAPE exhibited the highest motion parameters (total motility and progressive motility) and best functional integrity (mitochondrial activity, plasma membrane integrity, and acrosomal integrity). Even in the presence of H2O2, the addition of 210 μmol/L CAPE not only significantly improved sperm quality parameters, but also elevated CAT, SOD, and GSH-Px activities to enhance sperm antioxidant capacity. In addition, we found that CAPE could affect the protein activities of AMPK, phospho-AMPK α (p-AMPK), SOD, and Caspase-3 regardless of whether H2O2 is present or not. Our findings suggested that CAPE has potential application in liquid preservation of boar sperm and preliminary indicated that CAPE-induced improvement of sperm quality and antioxidant capacity should be mediated through conservation of AMPK activity. Further studies are required to illustrate the specific mechanism by which CAPE attenuates oxidative stress-mediated damages dependent on AMPK activity.

Abstract
Neonicotinoids are the most widely used pesticides in the world. However, research studies have shown that it can affect the cognitive abilities and health of non-target bees and other wild pollinators by inducing DNA damage, apoptosis and mitochondrial damage, injure to its central nervous system, and it is even developmentally neurotoxic to mammals and humans, with mitochondria being an important target of neonicotinoids. Therefore, this article reviews the role of mitochondrial morphology, calcium ions (Ca2+) homeostasis, respiratory function, apoptosis, and DNA damage in neonicotinoids-induced systemic toxicity. Additionally, it evaluates the protective effects of various active substances including vitamin C, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), curcumin (CUR), glutathione reduced (GSH), caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), resveratrol, and thymoquinone (TQ) on neonicotinoids-induced toxicity. This review manuscript found that mitochondria are important targets to neonicotinoids. Neonicotinoids can cause DNA damage, apoptosis, protein oxidation, and lipid peroxidation in non-target organisms by altering mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis, inhibiting mitochondrial respiration, and inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Several active substances (vitamin C, NAC, CUR, GSH, resveratrol, CAPE, and TQ) play a protective role against neonicotinoid-induced systemic toxicity by inhibiting ROS signaling pathways, apoptosis, and lipid peroxidation. This review manuscript emphasizes the importance and urgency of the development of neonicotinoid antidotes, emphasizes the prospect of the application of targeted mitochondrial antidotes, and prospects the development of neonicotinoid antidotes in order to provide some strategies for the prevention of neonicotinoid toxicity.

Abstract
Imidacloprid (IMI) is a neonicotinoid compound widely used in agriculture production, causing surface water pollution and threatening non-target organisms. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of IMI on grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) liver cell (L8824) injury. The L8824 cells were exposed to different doses of IMI (65 mg/L, 130 mg/L and 260 mg/L) for 24 h. Our results demonstrated that exposure IMI significantly suppressed the activity of anti-oxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT and T-AOC) and accumulated oxidase (MDA) levels, and promoting reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in L8824 cells. Additionally, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨ m), mitochondria-derived ROS and ATP content and the MitoTracker Green indicated that IMI aggravated mitochondrial dysfunction, thereby inducing inflammation and enhancing pro-inflammatory genes (NF-kappaB, TNFα, IL-1β and IL-6) expressions. However, the addition of 2 mM N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) can reverse these adverse effects of high-dose IMI- induced. Hence, ROS is the main factor of IMI-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation. We further found that exposure to IMI induced apoptosis, which is characterized by promoting release of cytochrome c (Cyt-C), and increasing the expression of Bcl-2-Associated X (BAX), cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinases (Caspase 9 and 3), decreasing Bcl-2 level. Immunofluorescent staining, qRT-PCR and Western Blot results indicated that IMI exposure also activated mitophagy, which was demonstrated by the expression of mitophagy-related genes (BNIP3, LC3B and P62). Conversely, scavenging JNK by SP600125(10 μM) alleviated the expression of mitochondrial apoptosis and mitophagy-related gene induced by high-dose IMI. Therefore, these results of study demonstrated that IMI-induced oxidative stress to regulate mitochondrial dysfunction, thus causing inflammation, mitochondrial apoptosis and mitophagy in grass carp hepatocytes through NF-kappaB/JNK pathway.

Abstract
Imidacloprid (IMI) is widely used in agriculture, and is toxic to non-target aquatic species. Quercetin (Que) is a flavonoid abundant in fruits and vegetables that exhibits anti-oxidant activity. In the present study, we treated grass carp hepatocytes (L8824) with 0.1 μM Que and/or 1 mM IMI for 24 h to explore the effect of Que on IMI-induced mitochondrial apoptosis. We found that IMI exposure enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, inhibiting the activities of SOD, CAT and T-AOC, exacerbating the accumulation of MDA, aggravating the expression of mitochondrial apoptosis pathway (Cyt-C, BAX, Caspase9 and Caspase3) related genes and decreased the expression of anti-apoptosis gene B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2). In addition, Que and IMI co-treatment significantly restored the activity of anti-oxidant enzymes, downregulated ROS level and apoptosis rate, thereby alleviating the depletion of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and the expression of cytochrome c (Cyt-C), Bcl-2-associated X (BAX), and cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinases (Caspase9 and 3), increasing the Bcl-2 level. Furthermore, we elucidated that Que could inhibit the expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), thus activating phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) pathway to attenuate IMI-induced apoptosis. Molecular docking provides assertive evidence for the interaction between Que ligand and PTEN receptor. Consequently, these results indicate that Que effectively antagonizes IMI-induced mitochondrial apoptosis in grass carp hepatocytes via regulating the PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway.

Abstract
In the present study, it is aimed to evaluate the effects of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) against acute paw inflammation induced by carragenan (Carr) at macro and micro levels. Therefore, in this study, 1 hour after administering intraperitoneal of indomethacin (Ind) or CAPE (10 and 30 mg/kg body weight) to Sprague Dawley rats, Carr was injected intraplantarly into their right paws. The paw volumes of the rats were measured with a plethysmometer until the 4th hour. Also, X-ray and thermal camera images were taken to determine edema and temperature changes. At the end of the study, after the paw tissues and serums were taken, oxidative stress and inflammation status were determined using biochemical, molecular, and western blot techniques. In addition, lipid and protein profiles in paw tissue were determined using HPTLC and electrophoresis methods. The results depicted that a high dose of CAPE against Carr-induced inflammation may be almost as effective as Ind used as reference.

Imidacloprid (IMD) is a neonicotinoid insecticide used in large quantities worldwide in both veterinary and agronomic applications. Several studies have shown adverse effects of IMD on non-target organisms, with the liver being identified as the main affected organ. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of IMD on human hepatoblastoma (HepG2) cells. HepG2 were exposed to IMD (0.25-2.0 mM) for 24 and 48 h. IMD treatment resulted in cytotoxicity in the HepG2, inhibiting cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner, starting at concentrations of 0.5 mM (24 h) and 0.25 mM (48 h), and reducing cell viability from 0.5 mM onwards (24 and 48 h). IMD significantly decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential at both time points investigated (2.0 mM), and also induced damage to the cell membrane, demonstrated by significant dose and time-dependent increases in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release from concentrations of 1.0 mM (24 h) and 0.5 mM (48 h) upwards. IMD treatment also increased the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) at rates above 50% following 0.5 mM (24 h) or 0.25 mM (48 h) concentrations, and caused a significant decrease in reduced/oxidized glutathione ratio (GSH/GSSG), indicating oxidative stress. Furthermore, the antioxidant dithiothreitol, which reacts with ROS/RNS and acts as a thiol reducing agent, inhibited the cytotoxic effect of IMD. In addition, the metabolite IMD-olefin was more toxic than IMD. Our results indicate that IMD induces cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells and that this effect may be associated with an increase in the generation of ROS/RNS.

Astaxanthin Mitigates Thiacloprid-Induced Liver Injury and Immunotoxicity in Male Rats. Mar Drugs 2021; 19:md19090525. [PMID: 34564187 PMCID: PMC8467938 DOI: 10.3390/md19090525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Revised: 09/15/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Thiacloprid (TCP) is a widely used neonicotinoid insecticide with a probable toxic hazard to animals and human beings. This hazard has intensified the demand for natural compounds to alleviate the expected toxic insults. This study aimed at determining whether astaxanthin (ASX) could mitigate the hepatotoxic effect of TCP and diminish its suppressive effect on immune responses in rats. Animals received TCP by gavage at 62.1 mg/kg (1/10th LD50) with or without ASX at 40 mg/kg for 60 days. Intoxicated rats showed modulation of serum transaminases and protein profiles. The hemagglutination antibody titer to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) and the number of plaque-forming cells in the spleen were reduced. The cell-mediated immunity and phagocytosis were suppressed, while serum interleukins IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 were elevated. Additionally, malondialdehyde, nitric oxide, and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine levels were increased in the liver, spleen, and thymus, with depletion of glutathione and suppression of superoxide dismutase and catalase activities. The expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase and the high mobility group box protein 1 genes were upregulated with histomorphological alterations in the aforementioned organs. Cotreatment with ASX markedly ameliorated the toxic effects of TCP, and all markers showed a regression trend towards control values. Collectively, our data suggest that the protective effects of ASX on the liver and immune system of TCP-treated animals depend upon improving the antioxidant status and relieving the inflammatory response, and thus it may be used as a promising therapeutic agent to provide superior hepato- and immunoprotection.

Abstract
Propolis is produced by honeybees from materials collected from plants they visit. It is a resinous material having mixtures of wax and bee enzymes. Propolis is also known as bee glue and used by bees as a building material in their hives, for blocking holes and cracks, repairing the combs and strengthening their thin borders. It has been extensively used since ancient times for different purposes in traditional human healthcare practices. The quality and composition of propolis depend on its geographic location, climatic zone and local flora. The New Zealand and Brazilian green propolis are the two main kinds that have been extensively studied in recent years. Their bioactive components have been found to possess a variety of therapeutic potentials. It was found that Brazilian green propolis improves the cognitive functions of mild cognitive impairments in patients living at high altitude and protects them from neurodegenerative damage through its antioxidant properties. It possesses artepillin C (ARC) as the key component, also known to possess anticancer potential. The New Zealand propolis contains caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) as the main bioactive with multiple therapeutic potentials. Our lab performed in vitro and in vivo assays on the extracts prepared from New Zealand and Brazilian propolis and their active ingredients. We provided experimental evidence that these extracts possess anticancer, antistress and hypoxia-modulating activities. Furthermore, their conjugation with γCD proved to be more effective. In the present review, we portray the experimental evidence showing that propolis has the potential to be a candidate drug for different ailments and improve the quality of life.

Abstract
Neonicotinoids, which are widely used worldwide, including in Turkey, are an insecticide group that are synthetic derivatives of nicotine. Recently, they have attracted attention due to their toxic effects on non-target organisms, especially bees. Numerous studies have shown that neonicotinoids have been found in detectable levels in the environment and cause various undesirable effects on living organisms, including humans and other mammals. In this study, the possible toxic effects of imidacloprid and acetamiprid, commonly used neonicotinoids, are investigated by their pure forms and commercial formulations on HT-29 cells with individual and combined exposures. According to our results, imidacloprid and acetamiprid induced cytotoxicity by caspase-mediated apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, DNA damage, and oxidative stress under these experimental conditions. It is worth mentioning low doses of DNA damage, mixture exposure causes toxic effects at lower concentrations than individual exposure, and formulation groups are at the forefront of toxicity formation, though this varies depending on the parameters.

Abstract
Moroccan medicinal plants exhibit several pharmacological properties such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antidiabetic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory effects, which are related to the presence of numerous bioactive compounds, including phenolic acids, flavonoids, and terpenoids. In the present review, we systematically evaluate previously published reports on the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of Moroccan medicinal plants. The in vitro investigations revealed that Moroccan medicinal plants inhibit several enzymes related to inflammatory processes, whereas in vivo studies noted significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects as demonstrated using different experimental models. Various bioactive compounds exhibiting in vitro and in vivo anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, with diverse mechanisms of action, have been identified. Some plants and their bioactive compounds reveal specific secondary metabolites that possess important anti-inflammatory effects in clinical investigations. Our review proposes the potential applications of Moroccan medicinal plants as sources of anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of Moroccan medicinal plants were highlighted. Chemical nature of Moroccan medicinal plants with anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects was reported. Insights into anti-inflammatory mechanisms of bioactive compounds were highlighted. Toxicological investigations of Moroccan medicinal plants were reviewed.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an air pollutant, having toxic effects on immune system. Necroptosis has been discussed as a new form of cell death and plays an important role in inflammation. To investigate the mechanism of H2S-induced immune injury, and the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in this process, based on the results of high-throughput sequencing, we selected the most significantly changed miR-15b-5p for subsequent experiments. We further predicted and determined the targeting relationship between miR-15b-5p and TGFBR3 in HD11 through miRDB, Targetscan and dual-luciferase, and found that miR-15b-5p is highly expressed in H2S-induced necroptosis and inflammation. To understand whether miR-15b-5p/TGFBR3 axis could involve in the process of necroptosis and inflammation, we further revealed that the high expression of miR-15b-5p and the knockdown of TGFBR3 can induce necroptosis. Nec-1 treatment enhanced the survival rate of cells. Notably, H2S exposure induces oxidative stress and activates the TGF-β pathway, which are collectively regulated by the miR-15b-5p/TGFBR3 axis. Our present study provides a new perspective for necroptosis regulated by the miR-15b-5p/TGFBR3 axis and reveals a new form of inflammation regulation in immune diseases.

Induction of ER stress, antioxidant and detoxification response by sublethal doses of chlorantraniliprole in the silk gland of silkworm, Bombyx mori. PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2020; 170:104685.

Abstract
Sublethal doses of chlorantraniliprole (CAP) disrupt spinning disorder in the silkworm Bombyx mori (B. mori) and cause reduced cocoon production. In the present study, we investigated the effects of trace amounts of CAP on morphology and gene expression of the B. mori silk gland, found the posterior silk gland cells were possessed of disintegrated Endoplasmic reticulum (ER), unevenly distributed chromatin after exposure to CAP (0.01 mg/L). Gene expression analysis revealed that IRE1 and ATF6 ER stress-signaling pathways were inhibited, the PERK/CncC pathway was activated. Digital gene expression (DGE) analysis showed that detoxification-related genes, antioxidant genes and genes involved in ER protein processing pathway were expressed differentially in CAP-treated silkworm larvae. Notably, the transcript levels of the detoxification-related genes (CYP4M5, CYP6AB4, GSTD3 and GSTS1) and the antioxidant genes (CAT, TPX and SOD) were significantly increased, and the expression of ER protein processing-related genes (Sec61β, Sec61γ, Sec23α and ERGIC-53) was significantly decreased after CAP exposure. The results showed that sublethal doses of CAP exposure caused ER stress, oxidative damage to the silk gland and the perturbation of protein processing in ER, thereby probably leading to abnormal growth of the silk gland and triggering the spinning failure in silkworm.
