Abstract
Red blood cell (RBC) transfusions facilitate many life-saving acute and chronic interventions. Transfusions are enabled through the gold-standard hypothermic storage of RBCs. Today, the demand for RBC units is unfulfilled, partially due to the limited storage time, 6 weeks, in hypothermic storage. This time limit stems from high metabolism-driven storage lesions at +1-6 °C. A recent and promising alternative to hypothermic storage is the supercooled storage of RBCs at subzero temperatures, pioneered by our group. Here, we report on long-term supercooled storage of human RBCs at physiological hematocrit levels for up to 23 weeks. Specifically, we assess hypothermic RBC additive solutions for their ability to sustain supercooled storage. We find that a commercially formulated next-generation solution (Erythro-Sol 5) enables the best storage performance and can form the basis for further improvements to supercooled storage. Our analyses indicate that oxidative stress is a prominent time- and temperature-dependent injury during supercooled storage. Thus, we report on improved supercooled storage of RBCs at -5 °C by supplementing Erythro-Sol 5 with the exogenous antioxidants, resveratrol, serotonin, melatonin, and Trolox. Overall, this study shows the long-term preservation potential of supercooled storage of RBCs and establishes a foundation for further improvement toward clinical translation.

[PMID: 39036687 PMCID: PMC11259358 DOI: 10.4103/ajts.ajts_130_22] [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: 10/09/2022] [Revised: 12/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Red blood cell (RBC) units undergo metabolic, structural, and biochemical changes known as "storage lesions" that can reduce the survival and quality of RBCs. The use of antioxidants such as α-tocopherol may help to improve the quality of RBC units by reducing oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to determine the antioxidant effect of α-tocopherol in RBC units containing citrate-phosphate-dextrose solution with adenine (CPDA1) stored at 1°C-6°C for 35 days. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four RBC units containing CPDA1 were divided into four equal satellite bags. Three bags were supplemented with 0.125, 0.625, and 3.125 mM concentrations of α-tocopherol as test groups. One bag was supplemented with ethanol (0.5%) as a control group. They were stored at 1°C-6°C for 35 days. Malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and hemolysis index (HI) were measured on days 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35. RESULTS In all groups, MDA concentration and HI increased and TAC decreased (P < 0.05). MDA concentration and HI in the 3.125 mM of the α-tocopherol group had a lower increase compared to the other test and control groups. Supplementation of RBC units with α-tocopherol resulted in a significant increase of TAC in all three groups compared to the control group (P < 0.05) and had a lower reduction during storage. CONCLUSION Supplementation of RBC units with α-tocopherol improves the quality of RBC units by decreasing lipid peroxidation and hemolysis and by increasing TAC. Among the mentioned concentrations, 3.125 mM of α-tocopherol had a significantly more antioxidant effect.

Abstract
Rosmarinus officinalis or Rosemary is a highly valued medicinal vegetal, owing to its notable antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. In the current work, we aimed to identify the chemical components of the essential oil (EO) of R. officinalis and evaluate its biological properties using an in vitro approach. High performance liquid chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-TOF-MS) was utilized to analyze of the hydro-methanolic extract (HME), while gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was considered during the analysis of the EO’s chemical composition. The antioxidant abilities of HME and the EO were assessed using diverse tests (DPPH, ABTS, GOR, CUPRAC, and FRAP). The anti-enzymatic properties were tested by the inhibition of cholinesterases, α-glucosidase, and tyrosinase enzyme. The HPLC-TOF-MS displayed the existence of flavonoids like luteolin glucuronide I and II, and a few known hydroxycinnamic acids. The EO contained three major components, namely, eucalyptol (28.7%), camphor (16.7%), and borneol (13.5%). The HME had a high total polyphenol content, as determined by the Folin–Ciocalteau method (335.37 ± 9.33 µg of gallic acid eq·mg−1). Notably, the analysis of the bioactivities of the HME and EO revealed comparatively that they possessed higher radical scavenging capacity in the DPPH, ABTS, and galvinoxyl assays, while EO exhibited a higher capacity for enzyme inhibition. Overall, our findings suggest that both the EO and HME extract of Algerian’s R. officinalis holds great usefulness in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical fields due to its elevated polyphenol content and potent bioactivities.

Abstract
Red blood cells (RBC) are the most abundant cell in the human body, with a central role in oxygen transport and its delivery to tissues. However, omics technologies recently revealed the unanticipated complexity of the RBC proteome and metabolome, paving the way for a reinterpretation of the mechanisms by which RBC metabolism regulates systems biology beyond oxygen transport. The new data and analytical tools also informed the dissection of the changes that RBCs undergo during refrigerated storage under blood bank conditions, a logistic necessity that makes >100 million units available for life-saving transfusions every year worldwide. In this narrative review, we summarize the last decade of advances in the field of RBC metabolism in vivo and in the blood bank in vitro, a narrative largely influenced by the authors' own journeys in this field. We hope that this review will stimulate further research in this interesting and medically important area or, at least, serve as a testament to our fascination with this simple, yet complex, cell.

Exploring the Relationship between Micronutrients and Athletic Performance: A Comprehensive Scientific Systematic Review of the Literature in Sports Medicine. Sports (Basel) 2023; 11:109. [PMID: 37368559 DOI: 10.3390/sports11060109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this systematic review is twofold: (i) to examine the effects of micronutrient intake on athletic performance and (ii) to determine the specific micronutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, that offer the most significant enhancements in terms of athletic performance, with the goal of providing guidance to athletes and coaches in optimizing their nutritional strategies. The study conducted a systematic search of electronic databases (i.e., PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus) using keywords pertaining to micronutrients, athletic performance, and exercise. The search involved particular criteria of studies published in English between 1950 and 2023. The findings suggest that vitamins and minerals are crucial for an athlete's health and physical performance, and no single micronutrient is more important than others. Micronutrients are necessary for optimal metabolic body's functions such as energy production, muscle growth, and recovery, which are all important for sport performance. Meeting the daily intake requirement of micronutrients is essential for athletes, and while a balanced diet that includes healthy lean protein sources, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables is generally sufficient, athletes who are unable to meet their micronutrient needs due to malabsorption or specific deficiencies may benefit from taking multivitamin supplements. However, athletes should only take micronutrient supplements with the consultation of a specialized physician or nutritionist and avoid taking them without confirming a deficiency.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To establish the reference interval (RI) of vitamin E for Chinese children and adolescents. MATERIALS AND METHODS Serum tocopherol samples were examined using high performance liquid chromatography in third-party clinical laboratory institutions. Using real-world data from multi-center clinical laboratory institutions in China, the distribution parameters of vitamin E levels were described and the RI was calculated using three algorithms. RESULTS A total of 756,766 cases were included in the analysis, including 435,561 males and 321,205 females. The median of vitamin E in infants younger than 4 years of age initially increased but subsequently decreased; while its levels in children between 4 and 11 years of age remained relatively stable despite progressing in age (approximately 7.4-7.8 mg/L). After the start of puberty, the difference, relative to sex, gradually became apparent, and the median vitamin E levels in females was higher than in males. The differences of vitamin E levels between different regions and samples in different seasons had no clinical significance. The RI of vitamin E for children aged 0-18 years in China was 4.5-11.1 mg/L based on expectation-maximization algorithm. The RI established by the Hoffmann method was 4.6-12.8 mg/L. CONCLUSION The age- and sex-specific RIs of vitamin E were established by an indirect approach. The RIs established by EM algorithms could be used as an alternative to establish RIs based on real-world data.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Erythrocytes are exposed to oxidative stress during storage and can be stored for up to 42 days (in AS-7) under blood bank conditions for transfusion. Vitamin-C and Vitamin-E have proved beneficial in diminishing oxidative stress. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the combined effects of Vitamin-C and Vitamin-E on erythrocytes during storage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Blood was collected from male Wistar rats and erythrocytes were isolated and stored in AS-7 (Additive Solution) at 4 °C for 35 days. Erythrocytes were grouped into i) Controls and ii) Experimentals [Vitamin-C (10 mM) and Vitamin-E (2 mM)]. Antioxidant and oxidative stress markers were assessed at weekly intervals. Statistical analyses were performed by using GraphPad Prism software. RESULTS Hemoglobin increased on days 7 and 14 in the Experimentals. Superoxide dismutase activity elevated on days 7 & 14 in Controls and on day 7 in Experimentals. Catalase activity increased on day 21 in both groups. Protein carbonyls decreased on days 21 and 28 in Experimentals. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances decreased from day 14 in both groups. Conjugate dienes decreased on days 21 & 35 in the Experimentals. Glutathione increased from day 14 in both groups. Superoxides decreased on days 14, 28 & 35 in Controls and from day 14 in Experimentals. CONCLUSION Vitamin-C and Vitamin-E have been beneficial in terms of hemoglobin, antioxidants, protein & lipid oxidations and superoxides in stored erythrocytes. Therefore, this study provides new avenues for the development of effective storage solutions which will have a clinical impact in erythrocyte transfusions.

Abstract
Purpose: To characterize the impact of corneal cold storage (CS) on the endothelial apical junctional complex (AJC). Methods: Porcine corneas were held in CS (4°C; 1-7 days) with Cornisol™ preservation medium supplemented with epothilone B (EpoB; microtubule stabilizer; 100 nM), SB-203580 (p38 mitogen-activated protein [MAP] kinase inhibitor; 20 μM), or antioxidants (quercetin, 100 μM; vitamin E, 1 mM; deferoxamine, an iron chelator, 10 mM). After CS termination, the damage to endothelial AJC was characterized by imaging perijunctional actomyosin ring (PAMR) and zonula occludens (ZO-1). The effects of EpoB and SB-203580 were characterized by imaging microtubules. The loss in the barrier function was assessed in cultured cells grown on biotin-coated gelatin by permeability to fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-avidin. The accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), altered mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), lipid peroxidation, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release were also determined in response to CS. Results: CS led to the loss of microtubules, destruction of PAMR, and breakdown of ZO-1 in the endothelium. The severity of damage increased when CS was prolonged. Although rewarming of the tissue increased the damage, the effect was marginal. CS also induced accumulation of ROS, alteration in MMP, lipid peroxidation, enhanced LDH release, and increased permeability to FITC-avidin. These changes were opposed by EpoB, SB-203580, and antioxidants. Conclusion: Corneal CS destroys AJC of the endothelium, leading to loss of its barrier function. The effects were surmounted by microtubule stabilization, p38 MAP kinase inhibition, and antioxidants. Thus, there is potential for reformulation of the preservation medium to maintain the health of the donor corneal endothelium before transplantation.

Abstract
Background: Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are important modulators of red blood cell (RBC) rheology. Dietary PUFAs are readily incorporated into the RBC membrane, improving RBC deformability, fluidity, and hydration. However, enriching the lipid membrane with PUFAs increases the potential for peroxidation in oxidative environments (e.g., refrigerated storage), resulting in membrane damage. Substitution of bis-allylic hydrogens with deuterium ions in PUFAs decreases hydrogen abstraction, thereby inhibiting peroxidation. If lipid peroxidation is a causal factor in the RBC storage lesion, incorporation of deuterated linoleic acid (DLA) into the RBC membrane should decrease lipid peroxidation, thereby improving RBC lifespan, deformability, filterability, and post-transfusion recovery (PTR) after cold storage. Study Design and Methods: Mice associated with good (C57BL/6J) and poor (FVB) RBC storage quality received diets containing 11,11-D2-LA Ethyl Ester (1.0 g/100 g diet; deuterated linoleic acid) or non-deuterated LA Ethyl Ester (control) for 8 weeks. Deformability, filterability, lipidomics, and lipid peroxidation markers were evaluated in fresh and stored RBCs. Results: DLA was incorporated into RBC membranes in both mouse strains. DLA diet decreased lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde) by 25.4 and 31% percent in C57 mice and 12.9 and 79.9% in FVB mice before and after cold storage, respectively. In FVB, but not C57 mice, deformability filterability, and post-transfusion recovery were significantly improved. Discussion: In a mouse model of poor RBC storage, with elevated reactive oxygen species production, DLA attenuated lipid peroxidation and significantly improved RBC storage quality.

[PMID: 34242810 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.07.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Cell-based medicine has made great advances in clinical diagnosis and therapy for various refractory diseases, inducing a growing demand for cell preservation as support technology. However, the bottleneck problems in cell preservation include low efficiency and poor biocompatibility of traditional protectants. In this review, cell preservation technologies are categorized according to storage conditions: hypothermic preservation at 1 °C~35 °C to maintain short-term cell viability that is useful in cell diagnosis and transport, while cryopreservation at -196 °C~-80 °C to maintain long-term cell viability that provides opportunities for therapeutic cell product storage. Firstly, the background and developmental history of the protectants used in the two preservation technologies are briefly introduced. Secondly, the progress in different cellular protection mechanisms for advanced biomaterials are discussed in two preservation technologies. In hypothermic preservation, the hypothermia-induced and extracellular matrix-loss injuries to cells are comprehensively summarized, as well as the recent biomaterials dependent on regulation of cellular ATP level, stabilization of cellular membrane, balance of antioxidant defense system, and supply of mimetic ECM to prolong cell longevity are provided. In cryopreservation, cellular injuries and advanced biomaterials that can protect cells from osmotic or ice injury, and alleviate oxidative stress to allow cell survival are concluded. Last, an insight into the perspectives and challenges of this technology is provided. We envision advanced biocompatible materials for highly efficient cell preservation as critical in future developments and trends to support cell-based medicine. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Cell preservation technologies present a critical role in cell-based applications, and more efficient biocompatible protectants are highly required. This review categorizes cell preservation technologies into hypothermic preservation and cryopreservation according to their storage conditions, and comprehensively reviews the recently advanced biomaterials related. The background, development, and cellular protective mechanisms of these two preservation technologies are respectively introduced and summarized. Moreover, the differences, connections, individual demands of these two technologies are also provided and discussed.

Abstract
Introduction: COVID-19 is a novel and devastating disease. Its manifestations vary from asymptomatic to lethal. Moreover, mortality rates differ based on underlying health conditions and ethnicity. We investigated the biochemical rationale behind these observations using machine reasoning by the sci.AI system (https://sci.ai/). Facts were extracted and linked from publications available in nlm.nih.gov and Europe PMC to form the dataset which was validated by medical experts. Results: Based on the analysis of experimental and clinical data, we synthesized detailed biochemical pathways of COVID-19 pathogenesis which were used to explain epidemiological and clinical observations. Clinical manifestations and biomarkers are highlighted to monitor the course of COVID-19 and navigate treatment. As depicted in the Graphical Abstract, SARS-CoV-2 triggers a pro-oxidant (PO) response leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as a normal innate defense. However, SARS-CoV-2's unique interference with the antioxidant (AO) system, through suppression of nitric oxide (NO) production in the renin- angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), leads to an excessive inflammatory PO response. The excessive PO response becomes critical in cohorts with a compromised AO system such as patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PDd) where NO and glutathione (GSH) mechanisms are impaired. G6PDd develops in patients with metabolic syndrome. It is mediated by aldosterone (Ald) which also increases specifically in COVID-19. Conclusion: G6PD is essential for an adequate immune response. Both G6PDd and SARS-CoV-2 compromise the AO system through the same pathways rendering G6PDd the Achilles' heel for COVID-19. Thus, the evolutionary antimalarial advantage of the G6PDd cohort can be a disadvantage against SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
The effects of elevated levels of radiation contribute to the instability of pharmaceutical formulations in space compared to those on earth. Existing technologies are ineffective at maintaining the therapeutic efficacies of drugs in space. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel space-hardy formulations for preserving the stability and efficacy of drug formulations. This work aims to develop a novel approach for the protection of space pharmaceutical drug molecules from the radiation-induced damage to help extend or at least preserve their structural integrity and potency. To achieve this, free radical scavenging antioxidant, Trolox was conjugated on the surface of poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanoparticles for the protection of a candidate drug, melatonin that is used as a sleep aid medication in International Space Station (ISS). Melatonin-PLGA-PLL-Trolox nanoparticle as named as PolyRad was synthesized employing single oil in water (o/w) emulsion solvent evaporation method. PolyRad is spherical in shape and has an average diameter of ~600 nm with a low polydispersity index of 0.2. PolyRad and free melatonin (control) were irradiated by UV light after being exposed to a strong oxidant, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Bare melatonin lost ~80% of the active structure of the drug following irradiation with UV light or treatment with H2O2. In contrast, PolyRad protected >80% of the active structure of melatonin. The ability of PolyRad to protect melatonin structure was also carried out using 0, 1, 5 and 10 Gy gamma radiation. Gamma irradiation showed >98% active structures of melatonin encapsulated in PolyRads. Drug release and effectiveness of melatonin using PolyRad were evaluated on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in vitro. Non-irradiated PolyRad demonstrated maximum drug release of ~70% after 72 h, while UV-irradiated and H2O2-treated PolyRad showed a maximum drug release of ~85%. Cytotoxicity of melatonin was carried out using both live/dead and MTT assays. Melatonin, non-radiated PolyRad and irradiated PolyRad inhibited the viability of HUVEC in a dose-dependent manner. Cell viability of melatonin, PolyRad alone without melatonin (PolyRad carrier control), non-radiated PolyRad, and irradiated PolyRad were ~98, 87, 75 and 70%, respectively at a concentration \documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypothermia, leading to mitochondrial inhibition, is widely used to reduce ischemic injury during kidney preservation. However, the exact effect of hypothermic kidney preservation on mitochondrial function remains unclear. METHODS We evaluated mitochondrial function [i.e. oxygen consumption and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS)] in different models (porcine kidney perfusion, isolated kidney mitochondria, and HEK293 cells) at temperatures ranging 7-37 °C. RESULTS Lowering temperature in perfused kidneys and isolated mitochondria resulted in a rapid decrease in oxygen consumption (65% at 27 °C versus 20% at 7 °C compared to normothermic). Decreased oxygen consumption at lower temperatures was accompanied by a reduction in mitochondrial ROS production, albeit markedly less pronounced and amounting only 50% of normothermic values at 7 °C. Consequently, malondialdehyde (a marker of ROS-induced lipid peroxidation) accumulated in cold stored kidneys. Similarly, low temperature incubation of kidney cells increased lipid peroxidation, which is due to a loss of ROS scavenging in the cold. CONCLUSIONS Lowering of temperature highly affects mitochondrial function, resulting in a progressive discrepancy between the lowering of mitochondrial respiration and their production of ROS, explaining the deleterious effects of hypothermia in transplantation procedures. These results highlight the necessity to develop novel strategies to decrease the formation of ROS during hypothermic organ preservation.
