Abstract
Natural bioactive peptides exhibit various chemical and structural properties to enhance the immune response against multiple inflammatory and autoimmune related disorders. The immunomodulatory function and bioactivity of seed peptides show the capability for the development of biotherapeutics that could prevent autoimmune diseases. The aim of current study is to determine the immunomodulatory function of bioactive peptides derived from the seed of plum (Prunus domestica L.) by applying various immunoinformatic approaches. A thorough analysis of forty-one peptides was performed including drug likeliness, pharmacokinetic, and bioactivity profiling studies. Further, molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of screened peptides were carried out with the two interleukin targets (IL-17A and IL-23) of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). After the systematic screening, four peptides, namely HLLP, LPLL, LPAGV, and NLPL, were found as potential inhibitors against SLE. Additionally, site-directed mutagenesis analysis was conducted to explore the role of essential amino acid residues in the binding pattern/energy change. Computational alanine screening analysis found that CYS123, CYS121 of IL-17A and ASP270, and SER249 of IL-23 as hot spot residues that could play an important role in the inhibition property of screened peptides. Overall, the methodology described in the study can be utilized for developing unique peptide inhibitors that have a preventative role against SLE.

J Control Release 2023; 362:631-646. [PMID: 37708976 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2023.09.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2023] [Revised: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
The infiltration of inflammatory cells, especially macrophages, integrated with the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) and the release of inflammatory cytokines play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Synergistic combination of RONS scavenging and macrophage repolarization from pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype towards anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype, provides a promising strategy for efficient RA treatment. Herein, this study reported a unique self-assembly strategy to construct distinct rosmarinic acid nanoparticles (RNPs) for efficient RA treatment using the naturally occurring polyphenol-based compound, rosmarinic acid (RosA). The designed RNPs exhibited favorable capability in scavenging RONS and pro-inflammatory cytokines produced by macrophages. Attributing to the widened vascular endothelial-cell gap at inflammation sites, RNPs could target and accumulate at the inflammatory joints of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats for guaranteeing therapeutic effect. In vivo investigation demonstrated that RNPs alleviated the symptoms of RA, including joint swelling, synovial hyperplasia, cartilage degradation, and bone erosion in CIA rats. Additionally, the designed RNPs promoted macrophage polarization from M1 phenotype towards M2 phenotype, resulting in the suppressed progression of RA. Therefore, this research represents the representative paradigm for RA therapy using antioxidative nanomedicine deriving from the natural polyphenol-based compound.

A Review of the Potential Benefits of Herbal Medicines, Small Molecules of Natural Sources, and Supplements for Health Promotion in Lupus Conditions. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:1589. [PMID: 37511964 PMCID: PMC10416186 DOI: 10.3390/life13071589] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2023] [Revised: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The Latin word lupus, meaning wolf, was in the medical literature prior to the 1200s to describe skin lesions that devour flesh, and the resources available to physicians to help people were limited. The present text reviews the ethnobotanical and pharmacological aspects of medicinal plants and purified molecules from natural sources with efficacy against lupus conditions. Among these molecules are artemisinin and its derivatives, antroquinonol, baicalin, curcumin, emodin, mangiferin, salvianolic acid A, triptolide, the total glycosides of paeony (TGP), and other supplements such as fatty acids and vitamins. In addition, medicinal plants, herbal remedies, mushrooms, and fungi that have been investigated for their effects on different lupus conditions through clinical trials, in vivo, in vitro, or in silico studies are reviewed. A special emphasis was placed on clinical trials, active phytochemicals, and their mechanisms of action. This review can be helpful for researchers in designing new goal-oriented studies. It can also help practitioners gain insight into recent updates on supplements that might help patients suffering from lupus conditions.

Evaluation of the yield, chemical composition and biological properties of essential oil from bioreactor-grown cultures of Salvia apiana microshoots. Sci Rep 2023; 13:7141. [PMID: 37130866 PMCID: PMC10154310 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-33950-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Microshoot cultures of the North American endemic Salvia apiana were established for the first time and evaluated for essential oil production. Stationary cultures, grown on Schenk-Hildebrandt (SH) medium, supplemented with 0.22 mg/L thidiazuron (TDZ), 2.0 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine and 3.0% (w/v) sucrose, accumulated 1.27% (v/m dry weight) essential oil, consisting mostly of 1,8-cineole, β-pinene, α-pinene, β-myrcene and camphor. The microshoots were adapted to agitated culture, showing biomass yields up to ca. 19 g/L. Scale-up studies demonstrated that S. spiana microshoots grow well in temporary immersion systems (TIS). In the RITA bioreactor, up to 19.27 g/L dry biomass was obtained, containing 1.1% oil with up to ca. 42% cineole content. The other systems employed, i.e. Plantform (TIS) and a custom made spray bioreactor (SGB), yielded ca. 18 and 19 g/L dry weight, respectively. The essential oil content of Plantform and SGB-grown microshoots was comparable to RITA bioreactor, however, the content of cineole was substantially higher (ca. 55%). Oil samples isolated from in vitro material proved to be active in acetylcholinesterase (up to 60.0% inhibition recorded for Plantform-grown microshoots), as well as hyaluronidase and tyrosinase-inhibitory assays (up to 45.8 and 64.5% inhibition observed in the case of the SGB culture).

Anti-inflammatory and osteoprotective effects of Shi-Wei-Ru-Xiang pills on collagen-induced arthritis in rats via inhibiting MAPK and STAT3 pathways. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 300:115693.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Shi-Wei-Ru-Xiang pills (SW) as a tradition Tibetan medicine has been clinically proved effective in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment. However, the underlying mechanism of SW remains unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to investigate the anti-arthritic effect of SW and its possible mechanisms of action. MATERIALS AND METHODS A CIA rat model in vivo, and IL-1β-stimulated synoviocytes or chondrocytes and a co-culture system (IL-1β-stimulated synoviocytes/chondrocytes) in vitro were used to evaluate the effects of SW on the treatment of RA. Arthritic score, paw swelling rate, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and Safranin-O-Fast green (S-O) staining were used to evaluate the anti-arthritic activity of SW in CIA rats. TUNEL assay or flow cytometry were performed to measure chondrocytes apoptosis in vivo and invitro. The effects of SW on the expression and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines were assessed by qRT-PCR and Elisa. The inhibitory effects of SW on the phosphorylation of p38, Erk1/2, and STAT3 were analyzed by Western blot. RESULTS SW treatment significantly alleviated paw swelling, severity of arthritic and cartilage destruction in CIA rats. Moreover, SW decreased the expression of mRNAs of proinflammatory cytokines including TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the synovium, suppressed the production of these pro-inflammatory cytokines in serum and hind paws, downregulated the protein expression of p-p38, p-Erk1/2 and p-STAT3, and protected the chondrocytes apoptosis in CIA rats. Consistent with the results in vivo, SW also inhibited the activation of MAPK and STAT3 pathways, suppressed the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in IL-1β-stimulated synoviocytes, and attenuated chondrocytes apoptosis in IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes. In the co-culture system, SW pre-treatment in IL-1β-stimulated synoviocytes exhibited inhibition of chondrocytes apoptosis, which was associated with attenuation of inflammation in synoviocytes. CONCLUSION These results suggested that the underlying mechanisms by which SW exerts its anti-arthritis effect may be related to the reduction of proinflammatory cytokine levels, inhibition of p38, Erk1/2 and STAT3 phosphorylation, and attenuating of chondrocyte apoptosis.

Abstract
Control of excessive mitochondrial oxidative stress could provide new targets for both preventive and therapeutic interventions in the treatment of chronic inflammation or any pathology that develops under an inflammatory scenario, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Increasing evidence has demonstrated the role of mitochondrial alterations in autoimmune diseases mainly due to the interplay between metabolism and innate immunity, but also in the modulation of inflammatory response of resident cells, such as synoviocytes. Thus, mitochondrial dysfunction derived from several danger signals could activate tricarboxylic acid (TCA) disruption, thereby favoring a vicious cycle of oxidative/mitochondrial stress. Mitochondrial dysfunction can act through modulating innate immunity via redox-sensitive inflammatory pathways or direct activation of the inflammasome. Besides, mitochondria also have a central role in regulating cell death, which is deeply altered in RA. Additionally, multiple evidence suggests that pathological processes in RA can be shaped by epigenetic mechanisms and that in turn, mitochondria are involved in epigenetic regulation. Finally, we will discuss about the involvement of some dietary components in the onset and progression of RA.

Abstract
Fourteen constituents were recently isolated from the roots of Dendropanax dentiger with cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitory effects. However, the effect of 14 constituents on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and their action mechanism remain unclear. The study aimed to explore the anti-RA effect and potential mechanism of these constituents in tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)-stimulated human RA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (MH7A cells). The cell viability, nitric oxide (NO) production, inflammatory cytokine levels, and protein expressions were measured by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), Griess reagent, ELISA, and Western blot assays, respectively. Results showed that 14 constituents (40 μM) have no cytotoxicity for MH7A cells. Among them, two phenols including 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl-1-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (DRG) and 3,4-dimethoxyphenol-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (DAG) were shown to significantly inhibit the NO production with IC50 values of 5.25±0.34 and 5.35±0.31 μM, respectively. They also remarkably decreased the release of interleukin (IL)-2, 6, 8, and interferon (IFN)-γ, as well as prominently reduced the phosphorylation protein levels of p65, IkBα, AKT, and JNK at a concentration of 10 μM. Taken together, DRG and DAG could inhibit TNF-α-induced inflammatory response through blocking NF-kB/AKT/JNK signaling pathways in MH7A cells, thus could be promising against RA and other inflammation-related agents.
