Wang TB, He Y, Li RC, Yu YX, Liu Y, Qi ZQ. Rosmarinic acid mitigates acrylamide induced neurotoxicity via suppressing endoplasmic reticulum stress and inflammation in mouse hippocampus. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 126:155448. [PMID: 38394736 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155448] [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: 12/02/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acrylamide (ACR) is a widely used compound that is known to be neurotoxic to both experimental animals and humans, causing nerve damage. The widespread presence of ACR in the environment and food means that the toxic risk to human health can no longer be ignored. Rosmarinic acid (RA), a natural polyphenolic compound extracted from the perilla plant, exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and other properties. It has also been demon strated to possess promising potential in neuroprotection. However, its role and potential mechanism in treating ACR induced neurotoxicity are still elusive. PURPOSE This study explores whether RA can improve ACR induced neurotoxicity and its possible mechanism. METHODS The behavioral method was used to study RA effect on ACR exposed mice's neurological function. We studied its potential mechanism through metabolomics, Nissl staining, HE staining, immunohistochemical analysis, and Western blot. RESULTS RA pretreatment reversed the increase in mouse landing foot splay and decrease in spontaneous activity caused by 3 weeks of exposure to 50 mg/kg/d ACR. Further experiments demonstrated that RA could prevent ACR induced neuronal apoptosis, significantly downregulate nuclear factor-κB and tumor necrosis factor-α expression, and inhibit NOD-like receptor protein 3 inflammasome activation, thereby reducing inflammation as confirmed by metabolomics results. Additionally, RA treatment prevented endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) caused by ACR exposure, as evidenced by the reversal of significant P-IRE1α,TRAF2,CHOP expression increase. CONCLUSION RA alleviates ACR induced neurotoxicity by inhibiting ERS and inflammation. These results provide a deeper understanding of the mechanism of ACR induced neurotoxicity and propose a potential new treatment method.

Abstract
In today's fast-paced world, people increasingly rely on a variety of processed foods due to their busy lifestyles. The enhanced flavors, vibrant colors, and ease of accessibility at reasonable prices have made ready-to-eat foods the easiest and simplest choice to satiate hunger, especially those that undergo thermal processing. However, these foods often contain an unsaturated amide called 'Acrylamide', known by its chemical name 2-propenamide, which is a contaminant formed when a carbohydrate- or protein-rich food product is thermally processed at more than 120 °C through methods like frying, baking, or roasting. Consuming foods with elevated levels of acrylamide can induce harmful toxicity such as neurotoxicity, hepatoxicity, cardiovascular toxicity, reproductive toxicity, and prenatal and postnatal toxicity. This review delves into the major pathways and factors influencing acrylamide formation in food, discusses its adverse effects on human health, and explores recent techniques for the detection and mitigation of acrylamide in food. This review could be of interest to a wide audience in the food industry that manufactures processed foods. A multi-faceted strategy is necessary to identify and resolve the factors responsible for the browning of food, ensure safety standards, and preserve essential food quality traits.

Metabolomics strategy comprehensively unveils the effect of catechins intervention on the biomarkers of exposure to acrylamide and biomarkers of cardiometabolic risk. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2022; 169:107517. [PMID: 36191485 DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2022.107517] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Revised: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Polyphenolic antioxidants have been suggested to control the generation of acrylamide during thermal reactions. However, their role in protecting against the toxicity of acrylamide and the mechanism of action regarding profile alteration of biomarkers and metabolome remains unclear. A total of 65 adults were randomized into tea polyphenols (TP) and control groups and served with potato chips, which corresponded to an intake level of 12.6 μg/kg·bw of acrylamide, followed by capsules containing 200 mg, 100 mg or 50 mg TP, or equivalent placebo. Moreover, nontargeted urinary metabolomics analysis in acrylamide exposed rats was conducted using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography linked with a quadrupole-orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry. Our results showed that supplementation with catechins promoted the excretion of N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-l-cysteine in both humans and rats. We also found that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) or epicatechin (EC) intervention attenuated the ratio of hemoglobin adduct of glycidamide to hemoglobin adduct of acrylamide in rat blood. Metabolomics analysis revealed that EGCG/EC intervention regulated the differential expressed metabolites, including l-glutamic acid, 2-oxoglutarate, citric acid, and cysteinylglycine. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis further showed acrylamide-induced metabolic disorders were improved after EGCG/EC supplementation by glycolipid metabolism (alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, and d-Glutamine and d-glutamate metabolism) and energy metabolism (tricarboxylic acid cycle). Notably, the supplement use of EGCG prevented the cardiometabolic risk after exposure to acrylamide by mediating the phenylalanine and hippuric acid in phenylalanine metabolism. Here we showed the beneficial effect of catechins as major polyphenolic antioxidant ingredients on the toxicity of acrylamide by the changes in biomarkers from metabolic profile analysis based on human and animal studies. These findings shed light into the catechins as natural polyphenolic antioxidants that could be a therapeutic ingredient for preventing acrylamide-induced cardiometabolic toxicity.

Abstract
As a toxic substance on human health produced in food thermal treatment, simple analytical approaches are highly desired for the detection of acrylamide (ACR) in foods. With the aid of exonuclease III (Exo III), a simple fluorescence sensor was proposed based on carboxyfluorescein-labeled double-stranded DNA (FAM-dsDNA) and a cationic conjugated polymer (PFP). Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) efficiency between FAM and PFP was changed with and without ACR. When ACR was present, ACR and single-stranded DNA (P1, ssDNA) formed an adduct, allowing free FAM-labeled complementarity strand DNA (P2, FAM-csDNA) to appear in the solution and avoiding the digestion of P2 by Exo III. After the addition of PFP, the interaction of PFP and FAM induced strong FRET. Under optimized conditions, ACR was detected with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.16 μM. According to this biosensor, a LOD of 1.3 μM in water extract samples was observed with a good recovery rate (95-110 %).

Abstract
Human biomonitoring (HBM) is a very useful tool for assessing human exposure to acrylamide (AA). In the framework of the Human Biomonitoring Initiative (HBM4EU) AA was included in its second list of priority substances due to the potential threat to human health. HBM data on AA are scarce, but the use of specific and sensitive biomarkers represents a reliable indicator of exposure. In this review an overview of available knowledge on HBM of AA is provided in terms of: i) preferred exposure biomarkers and matrices for the HBM of AA; ii) analytical methods for determining its biomarkers of exposure in the most used specimens; iii) current HBM data available; and iv) tools for interpreting HBM data for AA in relation to risk assessment. Finally, future trends in this field are discussed.

Abstract
Acrylamide (AA), a class 2A probable carcinogen to humans classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, has attracted extensive attention worldwide since it was widely used in industrial and domestic water treatment and detected in thermal processing foods. The metabolic adducts of AA and its primary metabolite glycidamide (GA) have been served as biomonitoring markers of AA intake, but the physiologically based toxicokinetics (PBTK) models to estimate internal dosimetry still remain unclear. An updated PBTK model for AA, GA and their metabolic biomarkers in rats and humans was developed and extended with time-course datasets from both literatures and our experiments. With adjustments to the model parameters, linear regression correlation coefficient (R2) between the fitting values and the validation datasets of rats and humans was greater than 0.76. The current model fits well with the experimental datasets of urinary N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoylethyl)-l-cysteine (AAMA) and (N-(R,S)-acetyl-S-(carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-l-cysteine) (GAMA) of rats exposed to AA from 0.1 to 50 mg/kg b.w. and humans exposed to AA from 0.0005 to 0.020 mg/kg b.w., indicating the robustness of the current models. Parameters for adduct of AA with N-terminal valine of hemoglobin (AAVal) were extended to humans and validated. Kinetic parameters for rats were assessed and validated based upon fit to the experimental datasets for liver N3-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-adenine (N3-GA-Ade) and N7-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-guanine (N7-GA-Gua) adducts. Compared with the previous model, the developed model included the correlation between AA intake and its mercapturic acid adducts, AAMA and GAMA, in a larger dose range with new experimental data, and parameters for AAVal, N3-GA-Ade and N7-GA-Gua were improved and verified. The current multi-component PBTK models provide a superior foundation for the estimation of short-term to medium and long-term intake levels of human exposure to AA.

Abstract
Acrylamide (ACR), a potential neurotoxin, is produced by the Maillard reaction between reducing sugars and free amino acids during food processing. Over the past decade, the neurotoxicity of ACR has caused increasing concern, prompting many related studies. This review summarized the relevant literature published in recent years and discussed the exposure to occupational, environmental, and daily ACR contamination in food. Moreover, ACR metabolism and the potential mechanism of ACR-induced neurotoxicity were discussed, with particular focus on the axonal degeneration of the nervous system, nerve cell apoptosis, oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and gut-brain axis homeostasis. Additionally, the limitations of existing knowledge, as well as new perspectives, were examined, specifically regarding the connection between the neurotoxicity caused by ACR and neurodegenerative diseases, NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-related neuroinflammation, and microbiota-gut-brain axis signaling. This review might provide systematic information for developing an alternative pathway approach to assess ACR risk.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a common endocrine metabolic disorder, and previous studies have shown that diabetics are more sensitive to the toxic environmental contaminants. Acrylamide (ACR) is both an industrially multipurpose compound and a common endogenous food contaminant to which people are frequently exposed and at high risk. However, the toxicity of ACR on diabetes hasn't attracted much attention. In this study, both healthy mice and diabetic mice received ACR administration orally to investigate the ACR-induced metabolic toxicity, mechanism and susceptibility to ACR toxicity in adult diabetic male mice. The results showed that ACR significantly increased FBG level and decreased bodyweight, serum lipid and liver lipid biomarkers (TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C) levels as well as expression of lipid and glucose metabolism-related genes in diabetic mice, indicating that ACR can exacerbate metabolic disorders of glucose and lipid in diabetic male mice. Moreover, ACR exposure significantly increased levels of MDA and COX-2), decreased GSH level and antioxidant enzyme activity (SOD, GSH-PX and CAT) by downregulating expression of Nrf2 and Keap1 in diabetic mice. Factorial analysis showed ACR had a more significant disturbance in diabetic mice compared with healthy mice. Our results indicated that ACR exposure can cause oxidative stress and inflammatory damage, which can exacerbate abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism. This work helps to elucidate the effects and underlying mechanisms of ACR-induced metabolic toxicity in adults with diabetes.

Abstract
Acrylamide has been reported as an important dietary risk factor from carbohydrate-rich processing food. However, systemic biological effects on the serum metabolomics induced by acrylamide have poorly been understood. In the present study, we evaluated the metabolic profiles in a rat serum after exposure to acrylamide using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography combined with quadrupole-orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry. The serum biochemical parameters of the treated and control groups were also determined using an automatic biochemical analyzer. Compared with the control group, 10 metabolites were significantly upregulated, including citric acid, d-(-)-fructose, gluconic acid, l-ascorbic acid 2-sulfate, 2-hydroxycinnamic acid, valine, l-phenylalanine, prolylleucine, succinic acid, and cholic acid, while 5 metabolites were significantly downregulated, including 3-hydroxybutyric acid, 4-oxoproline, 2,6-xylidine, 4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one, and N-ethyl-N-methylcathinone in the serum of 4-week-old rats exposed to acrylamide in the high-dose group (all P < 0.05). Importantly, acrylamide exposure affected metabolites mainly involved in the citrate cycle, valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosyntheses, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosyntheses, and pyruvate metabolism. These results suggested that exposure to acrylamide in rats exhibited marked systemic metabolic changes and affected the cardiovascular system. This study will provide a theoretical basis for exploring the toxic mechanism and will contribute to the diagnosis and prevention of acrylamide-induced cardiovascular toxicity.

Abstract
Acrylamide classified as a probable carcinogen to humans is a high production volume chemical in industrial applications released to aquatic and environmental ecosystems, and also widely found in the thermal processing of starch-rich foods. To gain insight into the urinary metabolomics that may induce physiological responses stimulated by acrylamide, rats were orally administered with a single dose of 13C3-acrylamide (10 mg/kg bw) in the treatment group and urine samples were continuously collected every 2 h during the first 18 h and every 3 h during the period from 18 h to 36 h. A reliable nontargeted screening method for the analysis of urinary metabolomics in rats was developed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry. All metabolites in urine of rats receiving isotope-labeled acrylamide were screened by validated orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analyses compared to the animals in the control group, while exposure biomarkers were further confirmed according to the characteristic fragmentation rules and time-dependent profiles. Here we identified 2 new specific exposure biomarkers, named N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-L-cysteine-sulfoxide and N-acetyl-S-(2-carboxyl)-L-cysteine, compared to 4 currently acknowledged mercapturic acid adducts of acrylamide. In addition, our findings on analysis of acrylamide metabolic pathway and identification of exposure biomarkers confirmed that acrylamide could significantly affect energy metabolism and amino acid metabolism by the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis for key metabolites. Homocysteine thiolactone and hypoxanthine may be potential biomarkers for the cardiotoxicity, while methionine sulfoxide, hippuric acid and melatonin may be specifically related to the neurotoxicity. Thus, the current study provided new evidence on the identification of emerging exposure biomarkers and specific signature metabolites related to the toxicity of acrylamide, and shed light on how acrylamide affected energy and amino acid metabolism by further mapping urinary metabolic fingerprints.

Abstract
Polyphenolic antioxidants may effectively reduce acrylamide contents in processed foods. However, few studies focused on their detoxification effects via estimating the profile change of internal exposure biomarkers. Here we showed the protective effect of a water-soluble flavone-C-glycoside-rich antioxidant from bamboo leaves (AOB-w) against acrylamide-induced toxicity in college students. The participants were randomly assigned to either the AOB-w or control group and served potato chips, corresponding to 12.6 μg per kg·bw of dietary exposure to acrylamide, followed by capsules containing 350 mg AOB-w or equivalent placebo. The kinetics of acrylamide, glycidamide, and mercapturic acid metabolites was profiled, and their hemoglobin adducts were measured. The toxicokinetic study showed that AOB-w promoted the excretion of acrylamide and shortened the distribution but prolonged the excretion of N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoylethyl)-l-cysteine (AAMA) and N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-l-cysteine. The intervention with AOB-w reduced the peak concentration and area under curve of AAMA by 42.1% and 49.8%, respectively. Besides, AOB-w gender-dependently altered the toxicokinetic profile and reduced the amount of a human-specific urinary biomarker, N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoylethyl)-l-cysteine-sulfoxide in women. AOB-w accelerated the metabolism of hemoglobin adducts of acrylamide and glycidamide in blood of women. Compared with the baseline levels on the beginning day, we observed a significant enhancement of hemoglobin adducts on the 10th day after serving them potato chips, showing 54.5% and 20.9% higher levels of the hemoglobin adducts of acrylamide and glycidamide, respectively, which thus indicated a lower level of glycidamide-to-acrylamide ratio in blood of participants. Overall AOB-w could effectively reduce the internal exposure to acrylamide in college students, which provides advanced insights into protective functions of natural antioxidants against in vivo toxicity of chemical contaminants from diet.

Simultaneous Detection of Carnosine and Anserine by UHPLC-MS/MS and Its Application on Biomarker Analysis for Differentiation of Meat and Bone Meal. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24020217. [PMID: 30634388 PMCID: PMC6359308 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24020217] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2018] [Revised: 12/31/2018] [Accepted: 01/03/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
A novel ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) procedure, coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), was established for the analysis of anserine (ANS) and carnosine (CAR) in meat and bone meal (MBM) (bovine, ovine, porcine, and poultry origins). The pretreatment strategies were optimized for four types of MBM samples prior to UHPLC-MS/MS analysis. This method allowed determining CAR and ANS in short analysis time (18 min per sample). The limits of detection (LODs) and limits of quantification (LOQs) of two analytes in four types of MBM samples were in the ranges of 0.41–3.07 ng/g and 0.83–5.71 ng/g, respectively. The recovery rates spiked with low, intermediate, and high levels of two analytes in four types of MBM samples were 48.53–98.93%, 60.12–98.94%, and 67.90–98.92%, respectively. Acceptable inter-day reproducibility (RSD < 12.63%) supported the application of this proposed method for determining CAR and ANS in MBM samples. Overall, this rapid, effective, and robust method was successfully applied for quantitative detection of CAR and ANS in MBM samples. Furthermore, The CAR/ANS ratio was found to be in the decreasing order: porcine > bovine > ovine > poultry MBM. This proposed methodology was novelly applied to identify the biomarker (CAR/ANS ratio) for species-specific identification of MBM.

Abstract
Exposure to chemical contaminants is considered as one of risk factors to the current epidemic of obesity. Acrylamide (AA) is a ubiquitous chemical contaminant in environmental waste, mainstream cigarette smoke and carbohydrate-rich foods, and widely used in industrial manufacturers and cosmetics. Few studies have highlighted the association of daily exposure to AA with obesity-related outcomes. We analyzed data from 8364 participants who aged 20-85years and were recruited in National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) 2003-2006. We established the model of PROC Survey Logistic regressions via using AA biomarkers in blood, hemoglobin adducts of acrylamide and glycidamide (HbAA and HbGA), as the measure of internal exposure to AA, and assessing obesity, abdominal obesity and overweight with body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference (WC). After the adjustment of sociodemographic variables, lifestyle behaviors, and health-related factors, the ratio of HbGA to HbAA (HbGA/HbAA) was significantly associated with obesity (p for trend<0.0001). The odd ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of HbGA/HbAA across increasing quartiles were 1.740 (1.413-2.144), 2.604 (2.157-3.144), and 2.863 (2.425-3.380) compared with the lowest quartile. HbGA was positively associated with obesity [OR (95% CI): 1.226 (1.041-1.443), 1.283 (1.121-1.468), and 1.398 (1.165-1.679); p for trend=0.0004], while HbAA was inversely associated with obesity [OR (95% CI): 0.839 (0.718-0.980), 0.713 (0.600-0.848), and 0.671 (0.554-0.811); p for trend<0.0001]. Negative associations were found between the sum of HbAA and HbGA (HbAA+HbGA) and the body weight outcomes. Similar associations were also observed between the hemoglobin biomarkers of AA and abdominal obesity as well as overweight. Thus, the hemoglobin adducts of AA as long-term internal exposure biomarkers are strongly associated with obesity-related outcomes in a population of US adults.
