Li Y, Ren HX, Chi CY, Miao YB. Artificial Intelligence-Guided Gut-Microenvironment-Triggered Imaging Sensor Reveals Potential Indicators of Parkinson's Disease. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2307819. [PMID: 38569219 DOI: 10.1002/advs.202307819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
The gut-brain axis has recently emerged as a crucial link in the development and progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). Dysregulation of the gut microbiota has been implicated in the pathogenesis of this disease, sparking growing interest in the quest for non-invasive biomarkers derived from the gut for early PD diagnosis. Herein, an artificial intelligence-guided gut-microenvironment-triggered imaging sensor (Eu-MOF@Au-Aptmer) to achieve non-invasive, accurate screening for various stages of PD is presented. The sensor works by analyzing α-Syn in the gut using deep learning algorithms. By monitoring changes in α-Syn, the sensor can predict the onset of PD with high accuracy. This work has the potential to revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of PD by allowing for early intervention and personalized treatment plans. Moreover, it exemplifies the promising prospects of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced sensors in the monitoring and prediction of a broad spectrum of diseases and health conditions.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 319:117211. [PMID: 37739100 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117211] [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: 06/17/2023] [Revised: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Portulaca oleracea L. (PO), popularly known as purslane, has been documented in ethnopharmacology in various countries and regions. Traditional application records indicated that PO might be used extensively to treat the common cold, dysentery, urinary tract infections, coughing, eye infections, skin problems, gynecological diseases, and pediatric illnesses. AIM OF THE REVIEW This paper includes a systematic review of the traditional usage, phytochemicals, pharmacological activity, and potential uses of PO to provide an overview of the research for further exploitation of PO resources. MATERIALS AND METHODS This article uses "Portulaca oleracea L." and "purslane" as the keywords and collects relevant information on PO from different databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Springer, Science Direct, ACS, Wiley, CNKI, Baidu Scholar, Google Scholar, and ancient meteria medica. RESULTS PO is a member of the Portulacaceae family and is grown worldwide. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that purslane has the effect of improving eyesight, eliminating evil qi, quenching thirst, purgation, diuresis, hemostasis, regulating qi, promoting hair growth, detoxifying, and avoiding epidemic qi. Recent phytochemical investigations have shown that PO is a rich source of flavonoids, homoisoflavonoids, alkaloids, organic acids, esters, lignans, terpenoids, catecholamines, sterols, and cerebrosides. The purslane extracts or compounds have exhibited numerous biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antioxidant, anticancer, renoprotective, hepatoprotective, gastroprotective, metabolic, muscle relaxant, anti-asthmatic and anti-osteoporosis properties. The significant omega-3 fatty acids, vital amino acids, minerals, and vitamins found in purslane also provide nutritional benefits. Purslane as a food/feed additive in the food industry and animal husbandry has caused concern. Its global wide distribution and tolerance to abiotic stress characteristics make it in the future sustainable development of agriculture a certain position. CONCLUSIONS Based on traditional usage, phytochemicals, and pharmacological activity, PO is a potential medicinal and edible plant with diverse pharmacological effects. Due to purslane's various advantages, it may have vast application potential in the food and pharmaceutical industries and animal husbandry.

Abstract
Catecholamines (CAs) are aromatic amines containing a 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl nucleus and an amine side chain. Representative CAs included the endogenous neurotransmitters epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine. CAs and their derivatives are good resources for the development of sympathomimetic or central nervous system drugs, while they also provide ligands important for G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) research. CAs are of broad interest in the fields of chemical, biological, medical, and material sciences due to their high adhesive capacities, chemical reactivities, metal-chelating abilities, redox activities, excellent biocompatibilities, and ease of degradability. Herein, we summarize CAs derivatives isolated and identified from microorganisms, plants, insects, and marine invertebrates in recent decades, alongside their wide range of reported biological activities. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the structural and biological diversities of CAs, the regularity of their natural occurrences, and insights toward future research and development pertinent to this important class of naturally occurring compounds.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is strong support from studies in humans and in animal models that Parkinson's disease (PD) may begin in the gut. This brings about a unique opportunity for researchers in the field of neurogastroenterology to contribute to advancing the field and making contributions that could lead to the ability to diagnose and treat PD in the premotor stages. Lack of familiarity with some of the aspects of the experimental approaches used in these studies may present a barrier for neurogastroenterology researchers to enter the field. Much remains to be understood about intestinal-specific components of gut-first PD pathogenesis and the field would benefit from contributions of enteric and central nervous system neuroscientists. PURPOSE To address these issues, we have conducted a systematic review of the two most frequently used experimental models of gut-first PD: transneuronal propagation of α-synuclein preformed fibrils and oral exposure to environmental toxins. We have reviewed the details of these studies and present methodological considerations for the use of these models. Our aim is that this review will serve as a framework and useful reference for neuroscientists, gastroenterologists, and neurologists interested in applying their expertise to advancing our understanding of gut-first PD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the effect of oleracein E (OE) in improving 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced ulcerative colitis (UC). METHODS Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to induce a UC cell model, and TNBS was used to induce a UC rat model. ELISA was performed to assess the levels of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6). Moreover, the activities of catalase (CAT), myeloperoxidase (MPO), and malonaldehyde (MDA) were detected by kits. Western blotting was performed to assess related proteins of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway, tight junction protein (ZO-1, Occludin, and claudin-2) expression levels, and apoptosis-related proteins (Bcl2, Bax, and cleaved caspase 3). Flow cytometry was used to analyze ROS levels. The morphology of colon tissues and the apoptosis of cells were detected by HE and TUNEL staining, respectively. RESULTS OE significantly increased the activity of CAT and decreased the activity of MPO in LPS-induced Caco-2 cells and TNBS-induced UC rats. However, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were markedly reduced both in vivo and in vitro. In addition, OE significantly increased the levels of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway-related proteins and tight junction proteins and inhibited cell apoptosis. HE staining showed that OE significantly decreased the severity of acute TNBS-induced colitis in rats. CONCLUSION OE may exert a regulatory effect on ameliorating intestinal barrier injury and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress levels by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Abstract
Considering the central role of oxidative stress in the onset and progress of Parkinson's diseases (PD), search for compounds with antioxidant properties has attracted a growing body of attention. Here, we compare the neuroprotective effect of bulk and nano forms of the polyphenolic fraction of propolis (PFP) against rotenone-induced cellular and animal models of PD. Mass spectrometric analysis of PFP confirmed the presence of multiple polyphenols including kaempferol, naringenin, coumaric acid, vanillic acid, and ferulic acid. In vitro cellular experiments indicate the improved efficiency of the nano form, compared to the bulk form, of PFP in attenuating rotenone-induced cytotoxicity characterized by a decrease in cell viability, release of lactate dehydrogenase, increased ROS generation, depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane, decreased antioxidant enzyme activity, and apoptosis induction. In vivo experiments revealed that while no significant neuroprotection was observed relating to the bulk form, PFP nanosheets were very effective in protecting animals, as evidenced by the improved behavioral and neurochemical parameters, including decreased lipid peroxidation, increased GSH content, and antioxidant enzyme activity enhancement. We suggest that improved neuroprotective effects of PFP nanosheets may be attributed to their increased water solubility and enrichment with oxygen-containing functional groups (such as OH and COOH), leading to increased antioxidant activity of these compounds.

Abstract
The Portulaca oleracea L. commonly known as purslane is distributed all over the world and easily grows in diverse soil and climatic conditions. It has been traditionally used as a nutritious and ethnomedicinal food across the globe. Various studies have shown that the plant is a rich source of various important phytochemicals such as flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, proteins, carbohydrates, and vitamins such as A, C, E, and B, carotenoids and minerals such as phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and zinc. It is particularly very important because of the presence of a very high concentration of omega-3- fatty acids especially α-linolenic acid, gamma-linolenic acid and linoleic acid, which are not generally synthesized in terrestrial plants. Various parts of purslane are known for ethnomedicinal and pharmacological uses because of its anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, skeletal muscle relaxant, antitumor, hepatoprotective, anticancer, antioxidant, anti-insomnia, analgesic, gastroprotective, neuroprotective, wound healing and antiseptic activities. Due to multiple benefits of purslane, it has become an important wonder crop and various scientists across the globe have shown much interest in it as a healthy food for the future. In this review, we provide an update on the phytochemical and nutritional composition of purslane, its usage as nutritional and an ethnomedicinal plant across the world. We further provide a detailed account on ethnopharmacological studies that have proved the ethnomedicinal properties of purslane.

Abstract
An efficient diastereoselective route is developed to get access to novel spiropyrrolo[1,2-a]isoquinoline-oxindole skeletons by a one-pot three-component [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of (Z)-5-arylidene-1,3-thiazolidine-2,4-diones, isatin derivatives, and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ). Interestingly, the regioselectivity of the reaction is both temperature- and solvent-dependent, allowing the synthesis of two regioisomeric endo-dispiropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolineoxindoles in excellent yield. Unprecedentedly, each isomeric dispiropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolineoxindole endured retro-1,3-dipolar cycloaddition/recycloaddition reactions under thermal or catalytic conditions to regenerate the corresponding regioisomeric counterpart. In addition, DFT calculations were performed at the M062X/6-31++g(d,p) level of theory to unravel the origin of the reversal of regioselectivity and endo-stereoselectivity of the title 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. Upon treatment of Isatin, THIQ with (Z)-4-arylidene-5-thioxo-thiazolidin-2-ones as dipolarophiles, unusual rhodanine analogues were formed, along with smaller amounts of a dispirooxindole-piperazine. The structure and the relative configuration of these N-heterocycles were unambiguously assigned by spectroscopic techniques and confirmed by four single-crystal structures. In vitro and in vivo studies reveal that the novel rhodanine derivatives exert antidiabetic activity. The binding affinity with the active site of the enzyme α-amylase was studied by molecular docking. Furthermore, the bioavailability assessed through virtual ADME parameters (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Elimination pharmacokinetics) and the excellent fit with the Lipinski and Veber rules predict good drug-likeness properties for a bromo-substituted 2-sulfanylidene-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one.

Abstract
Rotenone is a naturally occurring toxin that inhibits complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. Several epidemiological studies have shown an increased risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) in individuals exposed chronically to rotenone, and it has received great attention for its ability to reproduce many critical features of PD in animal models. Laboratory studies of rotenone have repeatedly shown that it induces in vivo substantia nigra dopaminergic cell loss, a hallmark of PD neuropathology. Additionally, rotenone induces in vivo aggregation of α-synuclein, the major component of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites found in the brain of PD patients and another hallmark of PD neuropathology. Some in vivo rotenone models also reproduce peripheral signs of PD, such as reduced intestinal motility and peripheral α-synuclein aggregation, both of which are thought to precede classical signs of PD in humans, such as cogwheel rigidity, bradykinesia, and resting tremor. Nevertheless, variability has been noted in cohorts of animals exposed to the same rotenone exposure regimen and also between cohorts exposed to similar doses of rotenone. Low doses, administered chronically, may reproduce PD symptoms and neuropathology more faithfully than excessively high doses, but overlap between toxicity and parkinsonian motor phenotypes makes it difficult to separate if behavior is examined in isolation. Rotenone degrades when exposed to light or water, and choice of vehicle may affect outcome. Rotenone is metabolized extensively in vivo, and choice of route of exposure influences greatly the dose used. However, male rodents may be capable of greater metabolism of rotenone, which could therefore reduce their total body exposure when compared with female rodents. The pharmacokinetics of rotenone has been studied extensively, over many decades. Here, we review these pharmacokinetics and models of PD using this important piscicide.

Abstract
Isoquinoline alkaloids are a large group of natural products in which 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQ) form an important class. THIQ based natural and synthetic compounds exert diverse biological activities against various infective pathogens and neurodegenerative disorders. Due to these reasons, the THIQ heterocyclic scaffold has garnered a lot of attention in the scientific community which has resulted in the development of novel THIQ analogs with potent biological activity. The present review provides a much-needed update on the biological potential of THIQ analogs, their structural-activity relationship (SAR), and their mechanism of action. In addition, a note on commonly used synthetic strategies for constructing the core scaffold has also been discussed.

Abstract
Acidic compounds were enriched from a water decoction of Portulaca oleracea using 717 anion exchange resin column chromatography. A total of 22 compounds including 9 catecholamine derivatives, of which six were rare sulfonic acid derivatives, and 9 nitro derivatives, were further isolated through various column chromatographic methods, and their structures were elucidated by interpreting their spectroscopic data and ECD calculations. Among them, 16 compounds were isolated from P. oleracea for the first time, 8 of which were undescribed compounds and four compounds were natural products. Pharmacological screening indicated that cis-3-(3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenyl)-methyl acrylate exhibited anti-inflammatory activity, measured as inhibition of nitric oxide production in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells, with an EC50 value of 18.0 μM, The compounds showed only weak anti-microbial activity with (2R)-(+)-2-chloro-3-(3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenyl)-propionic acid methyl ester inhibiting Candida albicans with a MIC of 256 μg/mL, and 3-methoxy-4,5-dinitrophenol inhibiting Shigella sonnei with a MIC of 512 μg/mL.

Abstract
An efficient and enviromentally friendly CuBr/NHPI co-catalyzed aerobic oxidative [3 + 2] cycloaddition-aromatization cascade was realized with N-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines and electron-deficient olefins. Under the mild conditions, the reaction proceeded smoothly and displayed excellent functional group tolerance, affording 5,6-dihydro-pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines in good to high yields. This protocol exhibits a broad substrate scope to both N-alkyl tetrahydroisoquinolines and dipolarophile substrates.

Abstract
Meconopsis horridula Hook. f. & Thomson (MH) is a traditional Tibetan medicine used to promote blood circulation, remove bruises, remove stasis and relieve chest pain which benefit to cardiovascular diseases. Oleracein E (OE), a major tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid, can be isolated from MH ethanol extract. The antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects of OE have been reported by previous pharmacological research. The objective of this article was to investigate the cardioprotective effects of MH extract and OE in an ICR mouse of acute myocardial ischaemic injury. A left anterior descending (LAD) artery ligation mouse model of AMI was established. In vivo, cardiac function after MH and OE treatment was determined through measurement of EF, FS, LVEDd, and LVEDs by echocardiography. The levels of SOD, MDA, CK-MB and LDH in serum were also detected. A TUNEL assay was used to verify apoptosis. Changes in collagen deposition and inflammatory cell infiltration in ischemic myocardial tissue were observed by histopathological examination. In vitro, H9c2 cells were pre-treated with OE for 6 h, and then cultured in serum-free medium with H2O2 for 2 h. CCK8 assay measured cell viability, and flow cytometry determined apoptosis levels and ROS content. The mechanism was explored by western blotting. These results showed that MH and OE significantly affected acute myocardial ischaemia by improving cardiac function and that OE downregulated the expression of related proteins in the MAPK signalling pathway. These findings provide substantial evidence of MH may applicate in clinic, and indicate that such medicines have potential value for the treatment of ischaemia-induced heart disease.

Abstract
Rosmarinic acid (RA) is an extract that can be obtained from Lamiaceae herbs and the Boraginaceae family. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of RA on 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity in zebrafish embryos. Embryos were challenged with MPTP and then were treated with RA or brusatol (a Nrf2 inhibitor). Locomotor activity of zebrafish was recorded using a video camera. The swimming distance was analyzed with SMART 3.0 software. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunohistochemistry, reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents were evaluated. The expressions of proteins in the DJ-1/Akt/Nrf2 signaling pathway were measured. The results showed that RA not only prevented MPTP-induced dopaminergic neuron loss, but also attenuated the deficit in locomotor behavior. RA attenuated the increases of ROS and MDA induced by MPTP. Treatment with RA augmented expression of glutamate cysteine ligase catalytic subunit, glutamate cysteine ligase modifier subunit, and GSH. Furthermore, RA increased the expression of DJ-1, p-Akt, Nuclear-Nrf2, HO-1 and inhibited the expression of PTEN. Brusatol partially abolished the neuroprotective effect of RA in MPTP-induced Parkinson's disease (PD) model of zebrafish embryos. The results of this study indicate that RA exerts neuroprotective effects on MPTP-induced neurotoxicity in dopaminergic neurons of a zebrafish PD model. The mechanism underlying the effects of RA is associated with promotion of antioxidant gene expression via regulation of the DJ-1/Akt/Nrf2 signaling pathway.

Abstract
The detrimental impact on the food chain due to the overuse of rotenone is partly responsible for alpha-synuclein (α-syn) mediated neurotoxicity. It is hypothesized that rotenone overdose leads to cytosolic proteopathy resulting in modulation of apoptosis and autophagic pathways. The aim of our study is to explore the neuroprotective role of quercetin, a beneficial polyphenol against rotenone-induced neurotoxicity in dopaminergic human SH-SY5Y cell lines. In our study we demonstrated the correlation of rotenone-induced neurotoxicity through elevation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and imbalance in the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). Moreover, the morphological distortion of cell, condensation of nuclei, externalization of the inner phosphatidylserine, cleavage of caspase 3, and Poly ADP Ribose Polymerase (PARP) confirmed apoptosis. However, all these lethal effects were ameliorated by treatment of quercetin to the cells. On the other hand rotenone has a strong effect on autophagy which is a regulated degrading and recycling cellular process to remove dysfunctional proteins. Indeed, rotenone-mediated autophagy resulted in the enhancement of autophagosome-bound microtubule-associated protein light chain-3 (LC3-II) expression. Furthermore, excess accumulation of acidic vesicles was detected in presence of rotenone. Lysosome associated membrane protein (LAMP-2A) is yet another crucial protein that recruits overexpressed or misfolded proteins into the lumen of lysosome to trigger autophagy. In all cases the impact of rotenone on the cells acquired significant protection through quercetin treatment. In the present work we therefore opine the prospects of quercetin as a therapeutic candidate against neurotoxicity.

Abstract
The conserved Blm10/PA200 activators bind to the proteasome core and facilitate peptide and protein turnover. Blm10/PA200 proteins enhance proteasome peptidase activity and accelerate the degradation of unstructured proteasome substrates. Our knowledge about the exact role of PA200 in diseased cells, however, is still limited. Here, we show that stable knockdown of PA200 leads to a significantly elevated number of cells in S phase after treatment with the ATP synthase inhibitor, oligomycin. However, following exposure to the complex I inhibitor rotenone, more PA200‐depleted cells were in sub‐G1 and G2/M phases indicative of apoptosis. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and ChIP‐seq data analysis of collected reads indicate PA200‐enriched regions in the genome of SH‐SY5Y. We found that PA200 protein peaks were in the vicinity of transcription start sites. Gene ontology annotation revealed that genes whose promoters were enriched upon anti‐PA200 ChIP contribute to the regulation of crucial intracellular processes, including proliferation, protein modifications and metabolism. Selective mitochondrial inhibitors induced PA200 redistribution in the genome, leading to protein withdrawal from some gene promoters and binding to others. Collectively, the results support a model in which PA200 potentially regulates cellular homeostasis at the transcriptional level, in addition to its described role as an alternative activator of the proteasome.

Isoliquiritigenin Attenuates Anxiety-Like Behavior and Locomotor Sensitization in Rats after Repeated Exposure to Nicotine. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2020; 2020:9692321.

Abstract
As important components of positive and negative reinforcement, locomotor sensitization and withdrawal anxiety following repeated exposure to nicotine (NIC) constitute crucial risk factors for relapse to NIC use after abstinence. Glycyrrhiza radix (G. radix), an important tonic used in traditional Oriental medicine, has not only anxiolytic effects but also reduces NIC-induced locomotor sensitization. Isoliquiritigenin (ISL), a bioactive ingredient of G. radix, also exhibits neuropharmacological effects, including anxiolytic action. Previously, we reported that ISL suppressed cocaine-induced extracellular dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens shell (NaccSh) and attenuated methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity. The present study was performed to evaluate the effects of ISL on both NIC withdrawal anxiety and locomotor sensitization. Adult male rats received subcutaneous administration of NIC hydrogen tartrate (0.4 mg/kg, twice a day) for 7 days followed by 4 days of withdrawal. During the period of NIC withdrawal, the rats received four intragastric treatments with ISL (3, 10, or 30 mg/kg/day). All three doses of ISL significantly inhibited NIC withdrawal-induced anxiety-like behaviors in the elevated plus maze (EPM) test, but only the 10 mg/kg/day and 30 mg/kg/day ISL doses attenuated locomotor sensitization induced by a challenge dose of NIC. Intracerebroventricular ISL also inhibited both NIC-induced withdrawal anxiety and locomotor sensitization, but intra-NaccSh injection of ISL blocked only NIC locomotor sensitization, which was abolished by post-ISL infusion of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (an oxidant) or N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) into the NaccSh. Moreover, there was increased protein expression of phosphorylated Erk1/2 in the NIC-sensitized NaccSh, which was suppressed by ISL. Taken together, these results suggest that ISL can inhibit repeated NIC-induced withdrawal anxiety and locomotor sensitization, and the latter is mediated by antagonizing accumbal reactive oxygen species and NMDA receptor signaling.

Abstract
The development of new one-pot sequential cyclizations involving a Vilsmeier-Haack reaction followed by an organocatalyzed Mannich reaction is reported. This synthetic strategy gives access to functionalized indolizidines and quinolizidines in one operation from readily synthesized precursors. Yields and diastereoselectivities are good to excellent when formamides are used to trigger the key step, bearing either an electron-rich aryl or a pyrrole as the nucleophilic partner in the first cyclization.

The protective effect of inosine against rotenone-induced Parkinson's disease in mice; role of oxido-nitrosative stress, ERK phosphorylation, and A2AR expression. Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol 2020; 393:1041-1053. [PMID: 31915844 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-019-01804-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2019] [Accepted: 12/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a severe disabling syndrome in which neuroinflammation and various signaling pathways are believed to mediate dopaminergic neurodegeneration. Here, the possible disease-modifying effects of the purine nucleoside inosine were examined against rotenone-induced PD. Mice were allocated into six groups, namely, a normal control group receiving dimethylsulfoxide, a PD control group receiving rotenone, a standard treatment group receiving L-dopa/carbidopa together with rotenone, and three treatment groups receiving inosine in low, medium, and high doses together with rotenone. At the end of the experimental protocol, three behavioral tests were performed to assess PD motor manifestations, namely, wire-hanging test, wood-walking test, and stair test. After performing the behavioral study, mice striata were isolated for the colorimetric assay of hypoxanthine, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of dopamine, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6 and nitrite, the Western blot estimation of total and phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (tERK and pERK), the polymerase chain reaction estimation of adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) expression, as well as the histopathological examination of substantia nigra and striatal tissue. Inosine protected against PD progression in a dose-dependent manner, with the effect comparable to the standard treatment L-dopa/carbidopa, evidenced by behavioral, biochemical, and histologic findings. The beneficial antiparkinsonian effect of inosine could be attributed to the ability of the drug to ameliorate neuroinflammation and oxido-nitrosative stress, together with suppression of ERK phosphorylation and down-regulation of A2AR expression. Inosine could therefore be considered as a disease-modifying agent against PD, but further studies are claimed to confirm such effects clinically.

1-Carbomethoxy-β-Carboline, Derived from Portulaca oleracea L., Ameliorates LPS-Mediated Inflammatory Response Associated with MAPK Signaling and Nuclear Translocation of NF-κB. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24224042. [PMID: 31703464 PMCID: PMC6891712 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24224042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2019] [Revised: 10/25/2019] [Accepted: 11/05/2019] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Portulaca oleracea is as a medicinal plant known for its neuroprotective, hepatoprotective, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anticancer, antimicrobial, antiulcerogenic, and anti-inflammatory activities. However, the specific active compounds responsible for the individual pharmacological effects of P. oleracea extract (95% EtOH) remain unknown. Here, we hypothesized that alkaloids, the most abundant constituents in P. oleracea extract, are responsible for its anti-inflammatory activity. We investigated the phytochemical substituents (compounds 1–22) using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and screened their effects on NO production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced macrophages. Compound 20, 1-carbomethoxy-β-carboline, as an alkaloid structure, ameliorated nitric oxide (NO) production, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and proinflammatory cytokines associated with the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways, p38, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). Subsequently, we observed that compound 20 suppressed nuclear translocation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) using immunocytochemistry. Moreover, we recently reported that compound 8, trans-N-feruloyl-3’, 7’-dimethoxytyramine, was originally purified from P. oleracea extracts. Our results suggest that 1-carbomethoxy-β-carboline, the most effective anti-inflammatory agent among alkaloids in the 95% EtOH extract of P. oleracea, was suppressing the MAPK pathway and nuclear translocation of NF-κB. Therefore, P. oleracea extracts and specifically 1-carbomethoxy-β-carboline may be novel therapeutic candidates for the treatment of inflammatory diseases associated with the activation of MAPKs and NF-κB.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disease responsible for death of millions of people worldwide is a progressive clinical disorder which causes neurons to degenerate and ultimately die. It is one of the common causes of dementia wherein a person's incapability to independently think, behave and decline in social skills can be quoted as major symptoms. However the early signs include the simple non-clinical symptoms such as forgetting recent events and conversations. Onset of these symptoms leads to worsened conditions wherein the AD patient suffers severe memory impairment and eventually becomes unable to work out everyday tasks. Even though there is no complete cure for AD, rigorous research has been going on to reduce the progress of AD. Currently, a very few clinical drugs are prevailing for AD treatment. So this is the need of hour to design, develop and discovery of novel anti-AD drugs. The main factors for the cause of AD according to scientific research reveals structural changes in brain proteins such as beta amyloid, tau proteins into plaques and tangles respectively. The abnormal proteins distort the neurons. Despite the high potencies of the synthesized molecules; they could not get on the clinical tests up to human usage. In this review article, the recent research carried out with respect to inhibition of AChE, BuChE, NO, BACE1, MAOs, Aβ, H3R, DAPK, CSF1R, 5-HT4R, PDE, σ1R and GSK-3β is compiled and organized. The summary is focused mainly on cholinesterases, Aβ, BACE1 and MAOs classes of potential inhibitors. The review also covers structure activity relationship of most potent compounds of each class of inhibitors alongside redesign and remodeling of the most significant inhibitors in order to expect cutting edge inhibitory properties towards AD. Alongside the molecular docking studies of the some final compounds are discussed.

Evaluating the Potential of Portulaca oleracea L. for Parkinson's Disease Treatment Using a Drosophila Model with dUCH-Knockdown. PARKINSONS DISEASE 2019; 2019:1818259.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD), which is characterized by the decreased motor function and the loss of dopaminergic neurons, is a common neurodegenerative disorder in elders. There have been numerous in vitro and in vivo models developed to study mechanisms of PD and screen potential drug. Recently, dUCH-knockdown Drosophila model has been established and showed potential for screening antioxidants for PD treatment. The dUCH-knockdown Drosophila model of PD mimics most of main PD pathologies such as dopaminergic neurons degeneration, locomotor dysfunction, and shortage of dopamine in the brain. Common purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) is a nutritious vegetable containing a variety of antioxidants, levodopa, and dopamine, a neurotransmitter closely related to PD. Purslane has been reported to exert neuroprotective effects against several neurotoxins including rotenone and 6-OHDA in PD models. However, the recent data have not provided sufficient evidence for using purslane to treat PD or decelerate disease progression. Therefore, in this study, we utilized dUCH-knockdown fly to evaluate the capacity of purslane extracts for PD treatment. The results showed that purslane extracts improved locomotor ability in the larval stage and decelerated disease progression in the adult stage. Additionally, purslane extracts also reduced dopaminergic neuron degeneration. Taken together, our data strongly demonstrated that purslane extracts effectively rescued PD-like phenotypes in the fly model. This result contributed a foundation for further study on the application of purslane in PD treatment.

Abstract
Mesencephalic cell cultures are a good model to study the vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons and reproduce, in vitro, experimental models of Parkinson's disease. Rotenone associated as an environmental neurotoxin related to PD, is able to provoke dopaminergic neuron degeneration by inhibiting complex I of the mitochondrial respiratory chain and by inducing accumulation of α-synuclein. Recently, rotenone has been described to activate RhoA, a GTPase protein. In the present study we evaluated a possible neuroprotective effect of Rho-inhibitor molecules on rotenone-damaged dopaminergic (DA) neurons obtained from mouse primary mesencephalic cell culture. Our results showed that Clostridium Botulinum C3 toxin (C3) and simvastatin, as RhoA inhibitors, were able to protect DA neurons from rotenone damages. In fact, pretreatment with C3 or simvastatin significantly prevented the reduction of [3H]dopamine uptake, neurites injury and the expression patterns of proteins like α-syn, actin and connexin 43.

Abstract
In order to uncover the remarkable pathogenic genes or molecular pathological process in Parkinson's disease (PD), we employed a microarray analysis upon the cellular PD model induced by rotenone. Compared to the control group, 2174 genes were screened out to be expressed differently in the rotenone-induced group by certain criterion. GO analysis and the pathways analysis showed the significant enrichment of genes that were associated with the biological process of cell cycle, apoptotic process, organelle fusion, mitochondrial lesion, endoplasmic reticulum stress and so on. Among these significant DE genes, some were sorted out to be involved in cell cycle and protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum. As the PPI network analysis showed, the interaction relationship of the DEGs involved in the process of protein generation in endoplasmic reticulum(ER) was clearly showed up. As a prediction, we emphasized the genes EDEM1, ATF4, TRAF2 might play central roles in the protein misfolding process during the progression of Parkinson's disease and these new-found genes might be the future research focus and therapeutic targets in PD.

Abstract
An organolithium addition-intramolecular α-amidoalkylation sequence on N-phenethylimides has been developed for the synthesis of fused tetrahydroisoquinoline systems using 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (binol)-derived Brønsted acids. This transformation is the first in which activated benzene derivatives are used as internal nucleophiles, instead of electron-rich heteroaromatics, generating a quaternary stereocenter. Phenolic substitution on the aromatic ring of the phenethylamino moiety and the use of binol-derived N-triflylphosphoramides as catalysts are determinants to achieve reasonable levels of enantioselection, that is, up to 75% enantiomeric excess, in the α-amidoalkylation step. The procedure is complementary to the intermolecular α-amidoalkylation process, as opposite enantiomers are formed, and to the Pictet-Spengler cyclization, which allows the formation of tertiary stereocenters.
