JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 331:118282. [PMID: 38701935 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2024.118282] [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: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE The Sang Yu granule (SY), a traditional Chinese medicine prescription of Xijing Hospital, was developed based on the Guanyin powder in the classical prescription "Hong's Collection of Proven Prescriptions" and the new theory of modern Chinese medicine. It has been proved to have a certain therapeutic effect on drug-induced liver injury (DILI), but the specific mechanism of action is still unclear. AIM OF STUDY Aim of the study was to explore the effect of SangYu granule on treating drug-induced liver injury induced by acetaminophen in mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS The chemical composition of SY, serum, and liver tissue was analyzed using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. To assess hepatic function, measurements were taken using kits for total bile acids, as well as serum AST, ALT, and ALP activity. Concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in serum were quantified using ELISA kits. Transcriptome Sequencing Analysis and 2bRAD-M microbial diversity analysis were employed to evaluate gene expression variance in liver tissue and fecal microbiota diversity among different groups, respectively. Western blotting was performed to observe differences in the activation levels of FXR, SHP, CYP7A1 and PPARα in the liver, and the levels of FXR and FGF-15 genes and proteins in the ileum of mice. Additionally, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) experiments were conducted to investigate the potential therapeutic effect of administering the intestinal microbial suspension from mice treated with SY on drug-induced liver injury. RESULTS SY treatment exhibited significant hepatoprotective effects in mice, effectively ameliorating drug-induced liver injury while concurrently restoring intestinal microbial dysbiosis. Furthermore, SY administration demonstrated a reduction in the concentration of total bile acids, the expression of FXR and SHP proteins in the liver was up-regulated, CYP7A1 protein was down-regulated, and the expressions of FXR and FGF-15 proteins in the ileum were up-regulated. However, no notable impact on PPARα was observed. Furthermore, results from FMT experiments indicated that the administration of fecal suspensions derived from mice treated with SY did not yield any therapeutic benefits in the context of drug-induced liver injury. CONCLUSION The aforementioned findings strongly suggest that SY exerts a pronounced ameliorative effect on drug-induced liver injury through its ability to modulate the expression of key proteins involved in bile acid secretion, thereby preserving hepato-enteric circulation homeostasis.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the most common causes of a drug being withdrawn, and identifying the culprit drugs and the host factors at risk of causing DILI has become a current challenge. Recent studies have found that immune status plays a considerable role in the development of DILI. In this study, DILI-related differentially expressed genes mediated by immunoinflammatory cytokines were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to predict the occurrence of DILI (named the DILI predictive gene set, DILI_PGS), and the predictability of the DILI_PGS was verified using the Connectivity Map (CMap) and LiverTox platforms. The results obtained DILI_PGS from the GEO database could predict 81.25% of liver injury drugs. In addition, the Coexpedia platform was used to predict the DILI_PGS-related characteristics of common host diseases and found that the DILI_PGS mainly involved immune-related diseases and tumor-related diseases. Then, animal models of immune stress (IS) and immunosuppressive (IP) were selected to simulate the immune status of the above diseases. Meanwhile, psoralen, a main component derived from Psoralea corylifolia Linn. with definite hepatotoxicity, was selected as an experimental drug with highly similar molecular fingerprints to three idiosyncratic hepatotoxic drugs (nefazodone, trovafloxacin, and nimesulide) from the same DILI_PGS dataset. The animal experiment results found a single administration of psoralen could significantly induce liver injury in IS mice, while there was no obvious liver function change in IP mice by repeatedly administering the same dose of psoralen, and the potential mechanism of psoralen-induced liver injury in IS mice may be related to regulating the expression of the TNF-related pathway. In conclusion, this study constructed the DILI_PGS with high accuracy to predict the occurrence of DILI and preliminarily identified the characteristics of host factors inducing DILI.

Abstract
Hepatotoxicity or drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a major safety issue in drug development as a primary reason for drug failure in clinical trials and the main cause for post-marketing regulatory measures like drug withdrawal. Idiosyncratic DILI (iDILI) is a patient-specific, multifactorial, and multicellular process that cannot be recapitulated in current in vitro models; thus, our major goal is to develop and fully characterize a co-culture system and to evaluate its suitability for predicting iDILI. For this purpose, we used human hepatoma HepG2 cells and macrophages differentiated from a monocyte cell line (THP-1) and established the appropriate co-culture conditions for mimicking an inflammatory environment. Then, mono-cultures and co-cultures were treated with model iDILI compounds (trovafloxacin, troglitazone) and their parent non-iDILI compounds (levofloxacin, rosiglitazone), and the effects on viability and the mechanisms implicated (i.e., oxidative stress induction) were analyzed. Our results show that co-culture systems including hepatocytes (HepG2) and other cell types (THP-1-derived macrophages) help to enhance the mechanistic understanding of iDILI, providing better hepatotoxicity predictions.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is still spreading worldwide. For this reason, new treatment methods are constantly being researched. Consequently, new and already-known preparations are being investigated to potentially reduce the severe course of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2 infection induces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and acute serum biomarkers in the host organism. In addition to antiviral drugs, there are other substances being used in the treatment of COVID-19, e.g., those with antioxidant properties, such as vitamin C (VC). Exciting aspects of the use of VC in antiviral therapy are its antioxidant and pro-oxidative abilities. In this review, we summarized both the positive effects of using VC in treating infections caused by SARS-CoV-2 in the light of the available research. We have tried to answer the question as to whether the use of high doses of VC brings the expected benefits in the treatment of COVID-19 and whether such treatment is the correct therapeutic choice. Each case requires individual assessment to determine whether the positives outweigh the negatives, especially in the light of populational studies concerning the genetic differentiation of genes encoding the solute carriers responsible forVC adsorption. Few data are available on the influence of VC on the course of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Deducing from already-published data, high-dose intravenous vitamin C (HDIVC) does not significantly lower the mortality or length of hospitalization. However, some data prove, among other things, its impact on the serum levels of inflammatory markers. Finally, the non-positive effect of VC administration is mainly neutral, but the negative effect is that it can result in urinary stones or nephropathies.

Abstract
Acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury (APAP-ILI), which occurs during APAP overdose, has been extensively studied. The production of N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI), the reactive metabolite of APAP, primarily contributes to liver injury. However, the mechanism underlying APAP-ILI has not been fully characterized. For further clarification, it is important to consider drug localization and endogenous substances in the injured liver. Herein, we show the localization of NAPQI metabolites and the injury site-specific changes in endogenous substances in the rat liver following APAP overdose using a mass microscope. Our results of on-tissue derivatization matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) showed that the glutathione metabolite of APAP, a detoxified metabolite of NAPQI, localized in the damaged central vein region in the rat liver following APAP administration. Moreover, in the conventional MALDI-MSI, the intensities of some phospholipids, phosphocreatine, and ceramides decreased or increased in the damaged regions compared with those in non-damaged regions. Phosphocreatine was localized in the damaged cells, whereas its related mitochondrial creatine kinase was localized in the non-damaged cells. These results are expected to contribute to further elucidation of the mechanisms underlying APAP-ILI. Our findings illustrate the localization of NAPQI-related metabolites and endogenous molecules associated with APAP-ILI, which may be related to apoptosis or metabolic adaptation ultimately protecting the cells. As MALDI-MSI can analyze and differentiate regions with tissue damage, it is a valuable tool for analyzing the mechanism underlying drug-induced liver injury to identify novel biomarkers.

Abstract
The root of Reynoutria multiflora (Thunb.) Moldenke (syn.: Polygonum multiflorum Thunb., HSW) is a distinguished herb that has been popularly used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Evidence of its potential side effect on liver injury has accumulated and received much attention. The objective of this study was to profile the metabolic characteristics of lipids in injured liver of rats induced by HSW and to find out potential lipid biomarkers of toxic consequence. A lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced rat model of idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (IDILI) was constructed and evident liver injury caused by HSW was confirmed based on the combination of biochemical, morphological, and functional tests. A lipidomics method was developed for the first time to investigate the alteration of lipid metabolism in HSW-induced IDILI rat liver by using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography/Q-exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometry coupled with multivariate analysis. A total of 202 characterized lipids, including phosphatidylcholine (PC), lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE), sphingomyelin (SM), phosphatidylinositol (PI), lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphoglycerols (PG), and ceramide (Cer), were compared among groups of LPS and LPS + HSW. A total of 14 out 26 LPC, 22 out of 47 PC, 19 out of 29 LPE, 16 out of 36 PE, and 10 out of 15 PI species were increased in HSW-treated rat liver, which indicated that HSW may cause liver damage via interfering the phospholipid metabolism. The present work may assist lipid biomarker development of HSW-induced DILI and it also provide new insights into the relationships between phospholipid perturbation and herbal-induced idiosyncratic DILI.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) remains a challenge and a leading risk for drug discovery. Three-dimensional liver spheroids made from primary human hepatocytes (PHHs) with, or without, other liver cell types can provide more physiological relevance. In comparison to conventional 2-dimensional monolayer culture, our tests with 100 drugs of known DILI status indicate that PHH spheroids are significantly more sensitive in detecting drug-induced hepatotoxicity. To evaluate the role of Kupffer cells (KCs) in drug-induced liver toxicity, we have established conditions for generating co-culture spheroids with PHH and KCs. Inflammatory responses as shown by interleukin 6 secretion can be recapitulated in co-culture spheroids when treated with endotoxin lipopolysaccharides. KCs potentiated the cytotoxicity induced by trovafloxacin in co-culture spheroids at 48 h, but the differences between PHH spheroids and co-culture spheroids became less obvious after a 5-day treatment. Interestingly, a protective role of KCs was shown in co-culture spheroids treated with both acetaminophen and lipopolysaccharides. Additional tests with 14 DILI compounds comparing PHH spheroids and co-culture spheroids showed differential roles of KCs that were compound dependent. In summary, these 3-dimensional liver spheroid models are useful tools to understand the complex mechanisms underlying DILI.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI), herbal-induced liver injury, and herbal and dietary supplement (HDS)-induced liver injury are an important aspect of drug safety. Knowledge regarding responsible drugs, mechanisms, risk factors, and the diagnostic tools to detect liver injury have continued to grow in the past year. This review highlights what we considered the most significant publications from among more than 1800 articles relating to liver injury from medications, herbal products, and dietary supplements in 2017 and 2018. The US Drug-Induced Liver Injury Network (DILIN) prospective study highlighted several areas of ongoing study, including the potential utility of human leukocyte antigens and microRNAs as DILI risk factors and new data on racial differences, the role of alcohol consumption, factors associated with prognosis, and updates on the clinical signatures of autoimmune DILI, thiopurines, and HDS agents. Novel data were also generated from the Spanish and Latin American DILI registries as well as from Chinese and Korean case series. A few new agents causing DILI were added to the growing list in the past 2 years, including sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors, as were new aspects of chemotherapy-associated liver injury. A number of cases reported previously described hepatotoxins confirmed via the Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method (RUCAM; e.g., norethisterone, methylprednisolone, glatiramer acetate) and/or the DILIN method (e.g., celecoxib, dimethyl fumarate). Additionally, much work centered on elucidating the pathophysiology of DILI, including the importance of bile salt export pumps and immune-mediated mechanisms. Finally, it must be noted that, while hundreds of new studies described DILI in 2017-2018, the quality of such reports must always be addressed. Björnsson reminds us to remain very critical of the data when addressing the future utility of a study, which is why it is so important to adhere to a standardized method such as RUCAM when determining DILI causality. While drug-induced hepatotoxicity remains a diagnosis of exclusion, the diverse array of publications that appeared in 2017 and 2018 provided important advances in our understanding of DILI, paving the way for our improved ability to make a more definitive diagnosis and risk assessment.

NF-κB-mediated regulation of rat CYP2E1 by two independent signaling pathways. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0225531. [PMID: 31881060 PMCID: PMC6934272 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0225531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2019] [Accepted: 11/05/2019] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) plays an important role in both alcohol-induced and immune-mediated liver injury. However, the mechanism underlying CYP2E1 transcriptional regulation has not been clarified. This study focused on the NF-κB-mediated transcriptional regulation of rat CYP2E1 by two independent signaling pathways in alcohol-induced and immune-mediated liver injury rat models. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used in pharmacokinetic, molecular pharmacology, and morphology experiments. A rat model of alcohol-induced liver injury (AL) was established by feeding an ethanol-containing diet (42 g/kg/day) for 5 weeks as indicated. A rat immune-mediated liver injury (IM) model was established by the sequential injection of bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG, 125 mg/kg, once) via the tail vein after test day 21 and 10 μg/kg LPS 13 days later. HPLC, real-time PCR, western blot and ELISA analyses were performed. CYP2E1 expression was enhanced during the process of alcohol-induced liver injury (increased by 56%, P < 0.05) and significantly reduced during that of immune-mediated liver injury (reducedby52%, P < 0.05). NF-κB was activated in both the AL and IM groups (increased by 56% and76%, respectively, P < 0.05). Compared to those in the livers of AL model rats, the interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and iNOS levels in IM model rat livers were increased (increased by 26%, 21% and 101%, respectively, P < 0.05). The differential changes in CYP2E1 in the processes of alcohol-induced and immune-mediated liver injury may result from the differential expression of inflammatory cytokines and iNOS after NF-κB activation, leading to the NF-κB-mediated transcriptional regulation of rat CYP2E1 by two independent signaling pathways.

Abstract
The food additive titanium dioxide (TiO2), or E171, is a white food colorant. Recent studies showed after E171 ingestion a significantly increased number of colorectal tumours in a colorectal cancer mouse model as well as inflammatory responses and dysregulation of the immune system in the intestine of rats. In the mouse colon, E171 induced gene expression changes related to oxidative stress, impairment of the immune system, activation of signalling and cancer-related processes. E171 comprises nanoparticles (NPs) and microparticles (MPs). Previous in vitro studies showed that E171, NPs and MPs induced oxidative stress responses, DNA damage and micronuclei formation. This study aimed to investigate the relative contribution of the NPs and MPs to effects of E171 at the transcriptome level in undifferentiated Caco-2 cells by genome wide microarray analysis. The results showed that E171, NPs, and MPs induce gene expression changes related to signalling, inflammation, immune system, transport and cancer. At the pathway level, metabolism of proteins with the insulin processing pathway and haemostasis were specific to E171 exposure. The gene expression changes associated with the immune system and inflammation induced by E171, MPs, and NPs suggest the creation of a favourable environment for colon cancer development.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) complicates safety assessment for new drugs and poses major threats to both patient health and drug development in the pharmaceutical industry. A number of human liver cell-based in vitro models combined with toxicogenomics methods have been developed as an alternative to animal testing for studying human DILI mechanisms. In this review, we discuss the in vitro human liver systems and their applications in omics-based drug-induced hepatotoxicity studies. We furthermore present bioinformatic approaches that are useful for analyzing toxicogenomic data generated from these models and discuss their current and potential contributions to the understanding of mechanisms of DILI. Human pluripotent stem cells, carrying donor-specific genetic information, hold great potential for advancing the study of individual-specific toxicological responses. When co-cultured with other liver-derived non-parenchymal cells in a microfluidic device, the resulting dynamic platform enables us to study immune-mediated drug hypersensitivity and accelerates personalized drug toxicology studies. A flexible microfluidic platform would also support the assembly of a more advanced organs-on-a-chip device, further bridging gap between in vitro and in vivo conditions. The standard transcriptomic analysis of these cell systems can be complemented with causality-inferring approaches to improve the understanding of DILI mechanisms. These approaches involve statistical techniques capable of elucidating regulatory interactions in parts of these mechanisms. The use of more elaborated human liver models, in harmony with causality-inferring bioinformatic approaches will pave the way for establishing a powerful methodology to systematically assess DILI mechanisms across a wide range of conditions.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the levels of metabolites and cytokines in the serum of patients with severe and non-severe idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI) and to identify biomarkers of DILI severity. METHODS Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and ultraperformance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) based metabolomic approaches were used to evaluate the metabolome of serum samples from 29 DILI patients of severity grade 3 (non-severe), 27 of severity grade 4 (severe), and 36 healthy control (HC). The levels of total keratin-18 (K18), fragment K18, and 27 cytokines were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS The alkaline phosphatase activity ( p = 0.021) and international normalized ratio (INR) ( p < 0.001) differed significantly between the severe and non-severe groups. The severe group had a higher serum fragment K18 level than the non-severe group. A multivariate analysis showed good separation between all pairs of the HC, non-severe, and severe groups. According to the orthogonal partial least-squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) model, 14 metabolites were selected by GC-MS and 17 by UPLC-MS. Among these metabolites, the levels of 16 were increased and of 15 were decreased in the severe group. A pathway analysis revealed major changes in the primary bile acid biosynthesis and alpha-linolenic acid metabolic pathways. The levels of PDGF-bb, IP-10, IL-1Rα, MIP-1β, and TNF-α differed significantly between the severe and non-severe groups, and the levels of most of the metabolites were negatively correlated with those of these cytokines. An OPLS-DA model that included the detected metabolites and cytokines revealed clear separation of the severe and non-severe groups. CONCLUSION We identified 31 metabolites and 5 cytokines related to the severity of idiosyncratic DILI. The primary bile acid biosynthesis and alpha-linolenic acid metabolism pathways were also related to the severity of DILI. A model that incorporated the metabolites and cytokines showed clear separation between patients with severe and non-severe DILI, suggesting that these biomarkers have potential as indicators of DILI severity.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has become a major topic in the field of Hepatology and Gastroenterology. DILI can be clinically divided into three phenotypes: hepatocytic, cholestatic and mixed. Although the clinical manifestations of DILI are variable and the pathogenesis complicated, recent insights using improved preclinical models, have allowed a better understanding of the mechanisms that trigger liver damage. In this review, we will discuss the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying DILI. The toxicity of the drug eventually induces hepatocellular damage through multiple molecular pathways, including direct hepatic toxicity and innate and adaptive immune responses. Drugs or their metabolites, such as the common analgesic, acetaminophen, can cause direct hepatic toxicity through accumulation of reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial dysfunction. The innate and adaptive immune responses play also a very important role in the occurrence of idiosyncratic DILI. Furthermore, we examine common forms of hepatocyte death and their association with the activation of specific signaling pathways.

Abstract
The inflammatory stress has been associated with an increase in susceptibility to idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI). However, the molecular mechanisms of this inflammation-associated idiosyncratic drug hepatotoxicity remain unknown. We exposed HepG2 cells with high and low doses of three idiosyncratic (I) and three non-idiosyncratic (N) compounds, in the presence (I+ and N+) or absence (I− and N−) of a cytokine mix for 6, 12 and 24 h. To investigate the genome‐wide expression patterns, microarray was performed using the Agilent 4×44K Whole Human Genome chips. The data presented in this DIB include the expression of genes participating in the ceramide metabolism, ER stress, apoptosis and cell survival pathways. The functions of these genes were illustrated in our associated article (Jiang et al., 2017) [1]. Raw and normalized gene expression data are available through NCBI GEO (accession number GSE102006).
