Abdelrahman RE, Hassan MS, Morgan AM, Ibrahim MA, Hassanen EI. Acetamiprid induces cardiotoxicity in rats by dysregulating α7 nAChR and its downstream targets: The ameliorative role of resveratrol. Food Chem Toxicol 2024; 191:114892. [PMID: 39067744 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2024.114892] [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: 06/01/2024] [Revised: 07/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024]
Abstract
Acetamiprid (ACP) is a novel neonicotinoid insecticide used for controlling insect pests. Resveratrol (RSV) is a natural polyphenol that possesses anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic actions. The current research explores the mechanism of ACP-induced cardiotoxicity and the alleviative effects of RSV. Male rats were allocated to four groups of ten each. Rats were treated daily for 90 days via oral route. Control rats received distilled water, ACP rats received 25 mg acetamiprid/kg, RSV rats received 20 mg resveratrol/kg and ACP + RSV rats received both ACP and RSV. ACP exposure increased serum creatine phosphokinase activity and cardiac troponin level. It also induced oxidative stress, as evidenced by the glutathione reduction, and malondialdehyde elevation, as well as the detrimental histopathological and immunohistochemical changes in the myocardium. Gene expression analysis revealed down-regulation in the mRNA expression of the survival-related genes α7 nAChR, Erk and Bcl-2, and up-regulation in the apoptosis-related genes Jnk, Bax and Caspase-3. Conversely, the concomitant administration of ACP with RSV alleviated most of the aforementioned toxic impacts. It can be concluded that ACP induces cardiotoxicity by dysregulating the mRNA expression of α7 nAChR and its downstream targets. Additionally, RSV is proved to be a promising ameliorative agent against ACP-induced cardiotoxicity.

Cell Stress Chaperones 2024; 29:349-357. [PMID: 38485043 PMCID: PMC10999808 DOI: 10.1016/j.cstres.2024.03.003] [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: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024] Open
Abstract
This comprehensive review delves into the pivotal role of mitochondria in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity, a significant complication limiting the clinical use of this potent anthracycline chemotherapeutic agent. Doxorubicin, while effective against various malignancies, is associated with dose-dependent cardiotoxicity, potentially leading to irreversible cardiac damage. The review meticulously dissects the molecular mechanisms underpinning this cardiotoxicity, particularly focusing on mitochondrial dysfunction, a central player in this adverse effect. Central to the discussion is the concept of mitochondrial quality control, including mitochondrial dynamics (fusion/fission balance) and mitophagy. The review presents evidence linking aberrations in these processes to cardiotoxicity in doxorubicin-treated patients. It elucidates how doxorubicin disrupts mitochondrial dynamics, leading to an imbalance between mitochondrial fission and fusion, and impairs mitophagy, culminating in the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria and subsequent cardiac cell damage. Furthermore, the review explores emerging therapeutic strategies targeting mitochondrial dysfunction. It highlights the potential of modulating mitochondrial dynamics and enhancing mitophagy to mitigate doxorubicin-induced cardiac damage. These strategies include pharmacological interventions with mitochondrial fission inhibitors, fusion promoters, and agents that modulate mitophagy. The review underscores the promising results from preclinical studies while advocating for more extensive clinical trials to validate these approaches in human patients. In conclusion, this review offers valuable insights into the intricate relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and doxorubicin-mediated cardiotoxicity. It underscores the need for continued research into targeted mitochondrial therapies as a means to improve the cardiac safety profile of doxorubicin, thereby enhancing the overall treatment outcomes for cancer patients.

Noninvasive neuromodulation protects against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and inhibits tumor growth. iScience 2024; 27:109163. [PMID: 38425841 PMCID: PMC10904274 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.109163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Doxorubicin (Dox) poses a considerable threat to patients owing to its cardiotoxicity, thus limiting its clinical utility. Optimal cardioprotective intervention strategies are needed to suppress tumor growth but also minimize cardiac side effects. Here, we showed that tragus vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) improved the imbalanced autonomic tone, ameliorated impaired cardiac function and fibrosis, attenuated myocyte apoptosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction compared to those in the Dox group. The beneficial effects were attenuated by methyllycaconitine citrate (MLA). The transcript profile revealed that there were 312 differentially expressed genes and the protection of tVNS and retardation of MLA were related to inflammatory response and NADPH oxidase activity. In addition, tVNS synergizing with Dox inhibited tumor growth and lung metastasis and promoted apoptosis of tumor cells in an anti-tumor immunity manner. These results indicated that non-invasive neuromodulation can play a dual role in preventing Dox-induced cardiotoxicity and suppressing tumor growth through inflammation and oxidative stress.

Myeloid differentiation factor 2 inhibitors exert protective effects on lipopolysaccharides-treated human dental pulp cells via suppression of toll-like receptor 4-mediated signaling. J Dent Sci 2024; 19:220-230. [PMID: 38303896 PMCID: PMC10829556 DOI: 10.1016/j.jds.2023.04.024] [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: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Background/purpose The toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-myeloid differentiation factor 2 (MD-2) complex is known to have a role in inflammation. Blocking MD-2 can suppress inflammatory process. However, the actual action of MD-2 inhibitors, including MAC28, L6H21, and 2i-10, on the inflamed human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) has never been examined. This study aims to determine the pharmacological effects of these 3 compounds on cell viability, inflammation, and osteo/odontogenic differentiation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated HDPCs. Materials and methods HDPCs were pretreated with 10 μM of MAC28, L6H21, or 2i-10 for 2 h followed by either 20 μg/mL LPS or vehicle for 24 h. Cell viability was assessed using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The mRNA and expression of the proteins TLR4, MD-2, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) were determined using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analysis. Osteo/odontogenic differentiation was investigated using qRT-PCR and Alizarin Red staining. Results LPS did not alter cell viability but significantly increased the expression levels of TLR4, MD-2, TNF-α, and IL-6 in HDPCs while the osteo/odontogenic differentiation ability decreased significantly when compared to the vehicle-treated group. MAC28, L6H21, and 2i-10-pretreatment in LPS-treated HDPCs reduced inflammation and restored osteo/odontogenic differentiation to similar levels as the vehicle-treated group. Conclusion MAC28, L6H21, and 2i-10 exhibited equal efficacy in attenuating inflammation through downregulation of TLR4-MD-2 signaling and restored osteo/odontogenic differentiation in LPS-treated HDPCs. These MD-2 inhibitors could be considered as the potential therapeutic supplement for curing inflammation of dental pulp in future studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is accompanied by an imbalance in the cardiac autonomic nervous system, characterized by over-activated sympathetic tone and reduced vagal nerve activity. In our preceding study, we pioneered the development of the magnetic vagus nerve stimulation (mVNS) system. This system showcased precise vagus nerve stimulation, demonstrating remarkable effectiveness and safety in treating myocardial infarction. However, it remains uncertain whether mVNS can mitigate myocardial I/R injury and its specific underlying mechanisms. In this study, we utilized a rat model of myocardial I/R injury to delve into the therapeutic potential of mVNS against this type of injury. RESULTS Our findings revealed that mVNS treatment led to a reduction in myocardial infarct size, a decrease in ventricular fibrillation (VF) incidence and a curbing of inflammatory cytokine release. Mechanistically, mVNS demonstrated beneficial effects on myocardial I/R injury by inhibiting NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis through the M2AChR/OGDHL/ROS axis. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, these outcomes highlight the promising potential of mVNS as a treatment strategy for myocardial I/R injury.

Abstract
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), comprising the largest superfamily of cell surface receptors, serve as fundamental modulators of cardiac health and disease owing to their key roles in the regulation of heart rate, contractile dynamics, and cardiac function. Accordingly, GPCRs are heavily pursued as drug targets for a wide variety of cardiovascular diseases ranging from heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and arrhythmia to hypertension and coronary artery disease. Recent advancements in understanding the signalling mechanisms, regulation, and pharmacological properties of GPCRs have provided valuable insights that will guide the development of novel therapeutics. Herein, we review the cellular signalling mechanisms, pathophysiological roles, and pharmacological developments of the major GPCRs in the heart, highlighting the β-adrenergic, muscarinic, and angiotensin receptors as exemplar subfamilies.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) has been recognized as one of the most effective chemotherapies and extensively used in the clinical settings of human cancer. However, DOX-mediated cardiotoxicity is known to compromise the clinical effectiveness of chemotherapy, resulting in cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Recently, accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria via alteration of the mitochondrial fission/fusion dynamic processes has been identified as a potential mechanism underlying DOX cardiotoxicity. DOX-induced excessive fission in conjunction with impaired fusion could severely promote mitochondrial fragmentation and cardiomyocyte death, while modulation of mitochondrial dynamic proteins using either fission inhibitors (e.g., Mdivi-1) or fusion promoters (e.g., M1) can provide cardioprotection against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In this review, we focus particularly on the roles of mitochondrial dynamic pathways and the current advanced therapies in mitochondrial dynamics-targeted anti-cardiotoxicity of DOX. This review summarizes all the novel insights into the development of anti-cardiotoxic effects of DOX via the targeting of mitochondrial dynamic pathways, thereby encouraging and guiding future clinical investigations to focus on the potential application of mitochondrial dynamic modulators in the setting of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

Promoting mitochondrial fusion in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity: a novel therapeutic target for cardioprotection. Clin Sci (Lond) 2022; 136:841-860. [PMID: 35543245 DOI: 10.1042/cs20220074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/06/2022]
Abstract
Changes in mitochondrial dynamics have been recognized as being one of the mechanisms related to cardiotoxicity following a high cumulative dose of doxorubicin (DOX). A mitochondrial division inhibitor (Mdivi-1) and fusion promoter (M1) have been shown to be cardioprotective in a variety of cardiovascular settings, however their anti-cardiotoxic efficacy against DOX therapy remains unclear. We therefore investigated whether treatment with Mdivi-1 and M1 protect the heart against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity via mitochondria-targeted pathways. Male Wistar rats (n=40) received DOX (3 mg/kg, 6 doses, n=32) or 3% DMSO in the normal saline solution (NSS) (n=8) as a control. DOX-injected rats were given one of four treatments beginning with the first DOX injection via intraperitoneal injection: 1) 3% DMSO in NSS (n=8), 2) Mdivi-1 (1.2 mg/kg/day, n=8), 3) M1 (2 mg/kg/day, n=8), and 4) Mdivi-1+M1 (n=8) for 30 days. Cardiac function, mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, myocardial injury, and protein expression associated with inflammation, autophagy, mitophagy, apoptosis and mitochondrial dynamics were determined. DOX caused a significant deterioration in mitochondrial function and dynamic regulation, and an increase in markers of oxidative stress, inflammation, myocardial injury, apoptosis, autophagy, and mitophagy, resulting in impaired cardiac function. Co-treatment of DOX with Mdivi-1, M1, or a combination of the two mitigated these detrimental effects of DOX. These findings imply that either inhibiting fission or promoting fusion of mitochondria protects the heart from DOX-induced myocardial damage. Modulation of mitochondrial dynamics could be a novel therapeutic target in alleviating DOX-induced cytotoxic effects without compromising its anti-cancer efficacy.
