[PMID: 38542359 PMCID: PMC10970276 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25063385] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2024] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Trigonelline (TRG) is a natural polar hydrophilic alkaloid that is found in many plants such as green coffee beans and fenugreek seeds. TRG potentially acts on multiple molecular targets, including nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ, glycogen synthase kinase, tyrosinase, nerve growth factor, estrogen receptor, amyloid-β peptide, and several neurotransmitter receptors. In this review, we systematically summarize the pharmacological activities, medicinal properties, and mechanistic actions of TRG as a potential therapeutic agent. Mechanistically, TRG can facilitate the maintenance and restoration of the metabolic homeostasis of glucose and lipids. It can counteract inflammatory constituents at multiple levels by hampering pro-inflammatory factor release, alleviating inflammatory propagation, and attenuating tissue injury. It concurrently modulates oxidative stress by the blockage of the detrimental Nrf2 pathway when autophagy is impaired. Therefore, it exerts diverse therapeutic effects on a variety of pathological conditions associated with chronic metabolic diseases and age-related disorders. It shows multidimensional effects, including neuroprotection from neurodegenerative disorders and diabetic peripheral neuropathy, neuromodulation, mitigation of cardiovascular disorders, skin diseases, diabetic mellitus, liver and kidney injuries, and anti-pathogen and anti-tumor activities. Further validations are required to define its specific targeting molecules, dissect the underlying mechanistic networks, and corroborate its efficacy in clinical trials.

Nat Prod Res 2024:1-8. [PMID: 38427608 DOI: 10.1080/14786419.2024.2319661] [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: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
Female germline stem cells (FGSCs) are renewable sources of oocytes that play an indispensable role in re-establishing mammal fertility. Here, we have established FGSCs from neonatal mice, which exhibit characteristics of germline stem cells. We show that compared with monomeric trigonelline and diosgenin, macromolecular compounds Cistanche deserticola polysaccharides (CDPs) in Chinese herbal medicine can enhance the ability of FGSCs to differentiate into oocytes at appropriate concentrations while maintaining self-renewal in vitro. In contrast, trigonelline and diosgenin inhibited the expression of germ cell-specific genes while reducing cell proliferation activity. In summary, CDPs could induce the differentiation and self-renewal of FGSCs in vitro. The comparison of the effects of the active components of different types of Chinese medicine will provide a reference for the development of clinical drugs in the future, and help to elucidate the development process of FGSCs.

Abstract
Aim: To study the preclinical pharmacokinetics of 4-hydroxy isoleucine (4-HIL) targeted for polycystic ovary syndrome. Methodology: The quantitative bioanalysis of 4-HIL in different biological matrices in female Sprage-Dawley rats using LC-MS/MS. Results: At 50 mg/kg, 4-HIL had 56.8% absolute oral bioavailability. It was quickly absorbed and distributed in various tissues in order of small intestine > kidney > ovary > spleen > lung > liver > heart > brain after oral administration. Moreover, 11.07% of 4-HIL was recovered in urine and feces within 72 h. Conclusion: 4-HIL levels in vital organs were found safe, as per tissue distribution results. Hence, 4-HIL could be used as promising therapeutics for management of polycystic ovary syndrome.

Abstract
The global epidemic of diabetes has brought heavy pressure on public health. New effective anti-diabetes strategies are urgently needed. Trigonelline is the main component of fenugreek, which has been proved to have a good therapeutic effect on diabetes and diabetic complications. Trigonelline achieves amelioration of diabetes, the mechanisms of which include the modulation of insulin secretion, a reduction in oxidative stress, and the improvement of glucose tolerance and insulin resistance. Besides, trigonelline has been reported to be a neuroprotective agent against many neurologic diseases including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and depression. Concerning the potential therapeutic effects of trigonelline, comprehensive clinical trials are warranted to evaluate this valuable molecule.

Abstract
Fenugreek seeds are used in numerous marketed herbal formulations with therapeutic benefits. Some of its bioactive components such as 4-hydroxyisoleucine, trigonelline, raffinose, and pinitol are reported to possess potential therapeutic activities, such as antibacterial, antidiabetic, stomach stimulant, and anti-invasive, against hyperandrogenism and other allied diseases, including polycystic ovary syndrome. A fully validated, selective, and sensitive bioanalytical method for the simultaneous rapid quantification of the aforementioned bioactive components has been developed using hyphenated liquid chromatography electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. The analytes were separated within 5 min using gradient elution in a C18 column at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min. Plasma protein precipitation technique was employed to isolate the analytes from the samples. Oral pharmacokinetic profile of the four bioactive components in Sprague-Dawley rats was further evaluated using noncompartmental analysis using Phoenix WinNonlin software.

Abstract
The stereoselective cyclization of a C-16 acetylated 22,26-dioxocholestene derivative to give the spirostane E and F rings, under alkaline conditions, yields exclusively the (26R)-26-hydroxydiosgenin. Both experimental and computational data support the formation of a single diastereoisomer. The effect of diosgenin and (26R)-26-hydroxydiosgenin on rat ovary is also investigated.

Abstract
Aim: To develop a novel method for the bioanalytical extraction of trigonelline (TRG) from human plasma samples using a magnetic nanocomposite and to evaluate its pharmacokinetic profile. Materials & methods: Magnetic bentonite/β-cyclodextrine (β-CD) nanoparticles, coupled with a validated ion-pairing reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method, were used to determine TRG concentration from plasma samples following a single oral administration. Results: The developed reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method was accurate, precise, specific, selective and reproducible. TRG showed rapid absorption, middle rate of elimination and mean residence time of ∼24 h. The data were best fitted on a two-compartment model in which tmax was 1.0 h, Cmax 0.115 μg/ml, area under the curve (AUC)0-24 1.72 μg/ml.h, Cl 0.0293 l/h/kg, t1/2α 0.79 h, t1/2β 13.68 h and ka 1.63 h-1. Conclusion: The findings of this study could provide useful information to promote the future study of TRG and aid optimal dose finding.
