Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) regulates the exchange of metabolites and cells between the blood and brain, and maintains central nervous system homeostasis. Various factors affect BBB barrier functions, including reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS can act as stressors, damaging biological molecules, but they also serve as secondary messengers in intracellular signaling cascades during redox signaling. The impact of ROS on the BBB has been observed in multiple sclerosis, stroke, trauma, and other neurological disorders, making blocking ROS generation a promising therapeutic strategy for BBB dysfunction. However, it is important to consider ROS generation during normal BBB functioning for signaling purposes. This review summarizes data on proteins expressed by BBB cells that can be targets of redox signaling or oxidative stress. It also provides examples of signaling molecules whose impact may cause ROS generation in the BBB, as well as discusses the most common diseases associated with BBB dysfunction and excessive ROS generation, open questions that arise in the study of this problem, and possible ways to overcome them.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) imparts multi-drug resistance (MDR) on the cancers cell and malignant tumor clinical therapeutics. We report a class of newly designed and synthesized oxygen-heterocyclic-based pyran analogues (4a-l) bearing different aryl/hetaryl-substituted at the 1-postion were synthesized, aiming to impede the P-gp function. These compounds (4a-l) have been tested against cancerous PC-3, SKOV-3, HeLa, and MCF-7/ADR cell lines as well as non-cancerous HFL-1 and WI-38 cell lines to determine their anti-proliferative potency.The findings demonstrated the superior potency of 4a-c with 4-F, 2-Cl, and 3-Cl derivatives and 4h,g with 4-NO2, 4-MeO derivatives against PC-3, SKOV-3, HeLa, and MCF-7/ADR cell lines.Compounds 4a-c were tested for P-gp inhibition and demonstrated significant vigour against MCF-7/ADR cells with IC50 = 5.0-10.7 μM. The Rho123 accumulation assay showed that compounds 4a-c adequately inhibited P-gp function, as predicted. Furthermore, 4a or 4b administration resulted in MCF-7/ADR cell accumulation in the S phase, while compound 4c induced apoptosis by causing cell cycle arrest at G2/M. The molecular docking was applied to understand the likely modes of action and guide us in the rational design of more potent analogs. The investigate derivatives showed their good binding potential for p-gp active site with excellent docking scores and interactions. Finally, the majority of investigated derivatives 4a-c derivatives showed high oral bioavailability, but they did not cross the blood-brain barrier. These results suggest that they have favorable pharmacokinetic properties. Therefore, these compounds could serve as leads for designing more potent and stable drugs in the future.

Abstract
A series of 1H-benzo[f]chromene moieties (4a-z) were synthesised under Ultrasonic irradiation and confirmed with spectral analyses. Derivative 4i solely possessed an X-ray single crystal. The anti-proliferative efficacy of the desired molecules has been explored against three cancer cells: MCF-7, HCT-116, and HepG-2 with the cytotoxically active derivatives screened against MCF-7/ADR and normal cells HFL-1 and WI-38. Furthermore, compounds 4b-d, 4k, 4n, 4q, and 4w, which possessed good potency against MCF-7/ADR, were tested as permeability glycoprotein (P-glycoprotein [P-gp]) expression inhibitors. The attained data confirmed that 4b-d, 4q, and 4w exhibited strong expression inhibition against the P-gp alongside its cytotoxic effect on MCF-7/ADR. The western blot results and Rho123 accumulation assays showed that compounds 4b-d, 4q, and 4w effectively inhibited the P-gp expression and efflux function. Meanwhile, 4b-d, 4q, and 4w induced apoptosis and accumulation of the treated MCF-7/ADR cells in the G1 phase and 4k and 4n in the S phase of the cell cycle.

Abstract
Background Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a popular biological material for osteoarthritis (OA) treatment. Pioglitazone, a PPAR-γ agonist, has been found to inhibit OA, but its use is limited because achieving the desired local drug concentration after administration is challenging. Purpose Herein, we constructed HA-based cartilage-targeted nanomicelles (C-HA-DOs) to deliver pioglitazone in a sustained manner and evaluated their efficacy in vitro and in vivo. Methods C-HA-DOs were chemically synthesized with HA and the WYRGRL peptide and dodecylamine. The products were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, zeta potential and TEM. The drug loading rate and cumulative, sustained drug release from Pio@C-HA-DOs were determined, and their biocompatibility and effect on oxidative stress in chondrocytes were evaluated. The uptake of C-HA-DOs by chondrocytes and their effect on OA-related genes were examined in vitro. The nanomicelle distribution in the joint cavity was observed by in vivo small animal fluorescence imaging (IVIS). The therapeutic effects of C-HA-DOs and Pio@C-HA-DOs in OA rats were analysed histologically. Results The C-HA-DOs had a particle size of 198.4±2.431 nm, a surface charge of -8.290±0.308 mV, and a critical micelle concentration of 25.66 mg/Land were stable in solution. The cumulative drug release from the Pio@C-HA-DOs was approximately 40% at pH 7.4 over 24 hours and approximately 50% at pH 6.4 over 4 hours. Chondrocytes rapidly take up C-HA-DOs, and the uptake efficiency is higher under oxidative stress. In chondrocytes, C-HA-DOs, and Pio@C-HA-DOs inhibited H2O2-induced death, reduced intracellular ROS levels, and restored the mitochondrial membrane potential. The IVIS images confirmed that the micelles target cartilage. Pio@C-HA-DOs reduced the degradation of collagen II and proteoglycans by inhibiting the expression of MMP and ADAMTS, ultimately delaying OA progression in vitro and in vivo. Conclusion Herein, C-HA-DOs provided targeted drug delivery to articular cartilage and improved the role of pioglitazone in the treatment of OA.

Abstract
α-Defensin 5 is known to be secreted by Paneth cells in the small intestine and plays an important role in eliminating pathogenic microorganisms. It has been reported that a decrease in α-defensin 5 level in the human small intestine is a risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Furthermore, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily, encoded by the ABCB1/MDR1 gene, plays an important role in the front line of host defense by protecting the gastrointestinal barrier from xenobiotic accumulation and may contribute to the development and persistence of IBD. Therefore, we examined the relationship between α-defensin 5 and the expression and function of P-gp using a human gastrointestinal model cell line (Caco-2). We found that MDR1 mRNA and P-gp protein level were increased in Caco-2 cells as well as α-defensin 5 secretion corresponded with the duration of cell culture. Exposure to α-defensin 5 peptide and recombinant tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) significantly increased the expression and function P-gp. The mRNA levels of interleukin (IL)-8, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-2 were also increased following exposure to TNF-α, similar to α-defensin 5 treatment. These results suggest that α-defensin 5 regulates P-gp expression and function by increasing TNF-α expression in Caco-2 cells.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the toxicological and pharmacokinetic properties of sucralose-6-acetate, a structural analog of the artificial sweetener sucralose. Sucralose-6-acetate is an intermediate and impurity in the manufacture of sucralose, and recent commercial sucralose samples were found to contain up to 0.67% sucralose-6-acetate. Studies in a rodent model found that sucralose-6-acetate is also present in fecal samples with levels up to 10% relative to sucralose which suggest that sucralose is also acetylated in the intestines. A MultiFlow® assay, a high-throughput genotoxicity screening tool, and a micronucleus (MN) test that detects cytogenetic damage both indicated that sucralose-6-acetate is genotoxic. The mechanism of action was classified as clastogenic (produces DNA strand breaks) using the MultiFlow® assay. The amount of sucralose-6-acetate in a single daily sucralose-sweetened drink might far exceed the threshold of toxicological concern for genotoxicity (TTCgenotox) of 0.15 µg/person/day. The RepliGut® System was employed to expose human intestinal epithelium to sucralose-6-acetate and sucralose, and an RNA-seq analysis was performed to determine gene expression induced by these exposures. Sucralose-6-acetate significantly increased the expression of genes associated with inflammation, oxidative stress, and cancer with greatest expression for the metallothionein 1 G gene (MT1G). Measurements of transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and permeability in human transverse colon epithelium indicated that sucralose-6-acetate and sucralose both impaired intestinal barrier integrity. Sucralose-6-acetate also inhibited two members of the cytochrome P450 family (CYP1A2 and CYP2C19). Overall, the toxicological and pharmacokinetic findings for sucralose-6-acetate raise significant health concerns regarding the safety and regulatory status of sucralose itself.

Abstract
Cancer treatment is hampered by resistance to conventional therapeutic strategies, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Redox homeostasis manipulation is one of the most effective innovative treatment techniques for overcoming drug resistance. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), previously considered intracellular byproducts of aerobic metabolism, are now known to regulate multiple signaling pathways as second messengers. Cancer cells cope with elevated amounts of ROS during therapy by upregulating the antioxidant system, enabling tumor therapeutic resistance via a variety of mechanisms. In this review, we aim to shed light on redox modification and signaling pathways that may contribute to therapeutic resistance. We summarized the molecular mechanisms by which redox signaling-regulated drug resistance, including altered drug efflux, action targets and metabolism, enhanced DNA damage repair, maintained stemness, and reshaped tumor microenvironment. A comprehensive understanding of these interrelationships should improve treatment efficacy from a fundamental and clinical research point of view.

Abstract
We investigated the mechanisms of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transporter regulation in Caco-2 cells under exogenous and endogenous oxidative stress (OS). Exogenous OS was modeled by exposure of the growth medium to hydrogen peroxide at concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, and 1 M for 24 h or 10 M for 72 h. Endogenous OS was modeled by incubating cells with DL-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO, gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase inhibitor) at a concentration of 10, 50, and 100 M for 24 h. The levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were assessed using MitoTracker Red CM-H2XRos fluorescent probes. Relative P-gp contents were analyzed using Western blot. Exogenous and endogenous OS was shown to increase relative to P-gp contents. An important role played by the Nrf2-Keap1 signaling pathway in increasing the P-gp contents under H2O2-induced exogenous OS was revealed using specific inhibitors. The transcription factor HIF1 is involved in the regulation of the P-gp levels under 24-hour exogenous OS, and the transcription factor CAR is involved in the regulation of transporter levels under 72-hour OS. All tested transcription factors and signaling pathways are involved in P-gp induction under endogenous OS. Most likely, this is associated with the bimodal effect of BSO on Pgp. On the one hand, BSO induces the development of OS; on the other, BSO, as a xenobiotic, is able to stimulate PXR and CAR, which, in turn, increase the P-gp contents.

Abstract
We studied the effect of nitric oxide (NO) on the functioning of P-glycoprotein transporter (Pgp) in Caco-2 cells. NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) was used in concentrations of 1, 10, 50, 100, and 500 μM; the duration of exposure was 24 h. The content of Pgp was analyzed by the Western blotting, activity of the transport protein was analyzed by the transport of its substrate fexofenadine. It was shown that GSNO in concentrations of 10 and 50 μM increased the content and activity of Pgp. Increasing the GSNO concentration to 500 μM led to the development of nitrosative stress and a decrease in the content and activity of the transporter protein.

Abstract
This paper aimed to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in the regulation of ABC transporters in human lung cancer (A549) cells facing substrate (doxorubicin, DOX) and non-substrate (ethanol, ETH and hydrogen peroxide, HP) chemicals. After 24-h treatment, all the chemicals caused significant cytotoxicity as reflected by the reduction in cell viability and the increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Depending on the rescuing effects of ROS scavenger including glutathione (GSH) and Vitamin C (VC), the toxicity dependence on oxidative stress were found to be HP>ETH>DOX. Addition of transporter inhibitors significantly enhanced the ROS levels and death-inducing effects of chemicals, indicating the universal detoxification function of ABC transporters. At moderate ROS levels (about 3-4 folds of control levels, caused by 10 μM DOX, 400 mM ETH, and 400 μM HP), all the three chemicals induced the gene expressions and activities of ABC transporters, but these values decreased at too high ROS levels (8.36 folds of control levels) caused by HP at LC50 (800 μM). Such induction could be attenuated by GSH and KCZ, and was completely abolished by 50 μM KCZ, indicating an important role of oxidative stress and pregnane X receptor (PXR) in the induction of ABC transporters. After all, this paper revealed a critical role of oxidative stress in the modulation of ABC transporters by either substrate or non-substrate chemicals during 24-h treatment. Such information should be beneficial for overcoming ABC transporter-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR). This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

BIOKHIMIIA 2022; 87:366-379. [PMID: 35527375 DOI: 10.1134/s000629792204006x] [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: 02/01/2022] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Mechanisms of regulation of the P-glycoprotein (Pgp) transporter under the action of nitric oxide (NO) were studied in Caco-2 cells. S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) was used as a NO donor, which was added to the cells at concentrations 1, 10, 50, 100, and 500 µM and incubated for 3, 24, or 72 h. The amount of Pgp was analyzed using Western blotting, activity was determined by monitoring transport of its substrate, fexofenadine. The study showed that a short-term exposure to GSNO for 3 h at 500 µM concentration caused increase in the concentration of peroxynitrite in Caco-2 cells, which reduced the activity, but not the amount of Pgp. Increase in the duration of exposure to 24 h increased the amount and activity of Pgp at GSNO concentrations of 10 and 50 µM, increased the amount without increasing activity at 100 µM concentration, and decreased the amount of the transporter protein at 500 µM. Duration of exposure to GSNO of 72 h at concentration of 10 µM resulted in the increase of the amount and activity of Pgp, while at concentration of 100 and 500 µM it decreased the amount of the transport protein. At the same time, it was shown using specific inhibitors that the increase in the amount of Pgp under the influence of low concentrations of GSNO was realized through the NO-cGMP signaling pathway, and the effect of the higher concentration of GSNO and the respective development of nitrosative stress was realized through Nrf2 and the constitutive androstane receptor.

Abstract
We studied the effect of 3-, 24-, and 72-h exposure to H2O2 in concentrations of 0.1-100.0 μM on the level of constitutive androstane receptor in Caco-2 cells. It was shown that 3- and 24-h incubation with Н2О2 in all concentrations had no effect on the level of constitutive androstane receptors. Increasing the incubation time to 72 h led to an increase in the level of constitutive androstane receptor at H2O2 concentrations of 5, 10, and 50 μM and to a decrease at a concentration of 100 μM. Antioxidant glutathione (1 mM) in parallel to the prooxidant neutralized these changes.
