PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 131:155805. [PMID: 38851097 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155805] [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: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 05/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia and progressive cognitive dysfunction, and our clinical investigation revealed that the plasma concentration of melatonin (Mlt) decreased and was closely related to cognition in T2DM patients. However, although many studies have suggested that Mlt has a certain protective effect on glucose and lipid metabolism disorders and neuropsychiatric injury, the underlying mechanism of Mlt against T2DM-related metabolic and cognitive impairments remains unclear. PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of Mlt on metabolic disorders and Alzheimer's disease (AD)-like neuropsychiatric injuries in T2DM mice and to explore the possible underlying molecular mechanism involved. METHODS A T2DM mouse model was established by a combination of a high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ, 100 mg/kg, i.p.), and Mlt (5, 10 or 20 mg/kg) was intragastrically administered for six consecutive weeks. The serum levels of glycolipid metabolism indicators were measured, behavioral performance was tested, and the protein expression of key molecules involved in the regulation of synaptic plasticity, circadian rhythms, and neuroinflammation in the hippocampus was detected. Moreover, the fluorescence intensities of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1 (IBA-1), amyloid β-protein (Aβ) and phosphorylated Tau (p-Tau) in the hippocampus were also observed. RESULTS Treatment with Mlt not only improved T2DM-related metabolic disorders, as indicated by increased serum concentrations of fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc), insulin (INS), total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG), improved glucose tolerance and liver and pancreas function but also alleviated AD-like neuropsychiatric injuries in a HFD/STZ-induced mouse model, as indicated by decreased immobility time in the tail suspension test (TST) and forced swimming test (FST), increased preference indices of novel objects or novel arms in the novel object recognition test (NOR) and Y-maze test (Y-maze), and improved platform positioning capability in the Morris water maze (MWM) test. Moreover, treatment with Mlt also improved the hyperactivation of astrocytes and microglia in the hippocampus of mice, accompanied by reduced expression of interleukin 1β (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), Aβ, and p-Tau and increased expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), Synapsin I, Synaptotagmin I, melatonin receptor 1B (MT1B), brain muscle arnt-like protein 1 (Bmal1), circadian locomotor output cycles kaput (Clock), period 2 (Per2), and cryptochrome 2 (Cry2). CONCLUSION Mlt alleviated T2DM-related metabolic disorders and AD-like neuropsychiatric injuries in a HFD/STZ-induced mouse model, possibly through a mechanism involving the regulation of glial activation and associated neuroinflammation and the balancing of synaptic plasticity and circadian rhythms in the hippocampus.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e37281. [PMID: 38457573 PMCID: PMC10919485 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000037281] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), represents a chronic progressive disease that imposes a significant burden on patients and the healthcare system. Linggui Zhugan decoction (LGZGD) plays a substantial role in treating NAFLD, but its exact molecular mechanism is unknown. Using network pharmacology, this study aimed to investigate the mechanism of action of LGZGD in treating NAFLD. Active ingredients and targets were identified through the integration of data from the TCMSP, GEO, GeneCards, and OMIM databases. Cytoscape 3.9.1 software, in conjunction with the STRING platform, was employed to construct network diagrams and screen core targets. The enrichment analysis of gene ontology and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways were conducted by using the R. Molecular docking of the active ingredients and core targets was performed with AutoDock Vina software. We obtained 93 and 112 active ingredients and potential targets using the bioinformatic analysis of LGZGD in treating NAFLD. The primary ingredients of LGZGD included quercetin, kaempferol, and naringenin. The core targets were identified AKT1, MYC, HSP90AA1, HIF1A, ESR1, TP53, and STAT3. Gene ontology function enrichment analysis revealed associations with responses to nutrient and oxygen levels, nuclear receptor activity, and ligand-activated transcription factor activity. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes signaling pathway analysis implicated the involvement of the PI3K-Akt, IL-17, TNF, Th17 cell differentiation, HIF-1, and TLR signaling pathways. Molecular docking studies indicated strong binding affinities between active ingredients and targets. LGZGD intervenes in NAFLD through a multi-ingredient, multi-target, and multi-pathway approach. Treatment with LGZGD can improve insulin resistance, oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid metabolism associated with NAFLD.

Bidirectional two-sample mendelian randomization analysis identifies causal associations of MRI-based cortical thickness and surface area relation to NAFLD. Lipids Health Dis 2024; 23:58.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients have exhibited extra-hepatic neurological changes, but the causes and mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates the causal effect of NAFLD on cortical structure through bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis. METHODS Genetic data from 778,614 European individuals across four NAFLD studies were used to determine genetically predicted NAFLD. Abdominal MRI scans from 32,860 UK Biobank participants were utilized to evaluate genetically predicted liver fat and volume. Data from the ENIGMA Consortium, comprising 51,665 patients, were used to evaluate the associations between genetic susceptibility, NAFLD risk, liver fat, liver volume, and alterations in cortical thickness (TH) and surface area (SA). Inverse-variance weighted (IVW) estimation, Cochran Q, and MR-Egger were employed to assess heterogeneity and pleiotropy. RESULTS Overall, NAFLD did not significantly affect cortical SA or TH. However, potential associations were noted under global weighting, relating heightened NAFLD risk to reduced parahippocampal SA and decreased cortical TH in the caudal middle frontal, cuneus, lingual, and parstriangularis regions. Liver fat and volume also influenced the cortical structure of certain regions, although no Bonferroni-adjusted p-values reached significance. Two-step MR analysis revealed that liver fat, AST, and LDL levels mediated the impact of NAFLD on cortical structure. Multivariable MR analysis suggested that the impact of NAFLD on the cortical TH of lingual and parstriangularis was independent of BMI, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes. CONCLUSION This study provides evidence that NAFLD causally influences the cortical structure of the brain, suggesting the existence of a liver-brain axis in the development of NAFLD.

A narrative review about cognitive impairment in metabolic Dysfunction-Associated liver disease (MASLD): Another matter to face through a holistic approach. J Adv Res 2024:S2090-1232(24)00069-9. [PMID: 38369241 DOI: 10.1016/j.jare.2024.02.007] [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: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 01/28/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic hepatic disorder worldwide in both adults and children. It is well established that MASLD represents the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome whose definition includes the presence of obesity, type 2 diabetes (T2D), dyslipidemia, hypertension and hypercoagulability. All these conditions contribute to a chronic inflammatory status which may impact on blood brain barrier (BBB) integrity leading to an impaired function of central nervous system (CNS). AIM OF REVIEW Since the mechanisms underlying the brain-liver-gut axis derangement are still inconclusive, the present narrative review aims to make a roundup of the most recent studies regarding the cognitive decline in MASLD also highlighting possible therapeutic strategies to reach a holistic advantage for the patients. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW Due to its ever-growing prevalence, the MASLD-related mental dysfunction represents an enormous socio-economic burden since it largely impacts on the quality of life of patients as well as on their working productivity. Indeed, cognitive decline in MASLD translates in low concentration and processing speed, reduced memory, sleepiness but also anxiety and depression. Chronic systemic inflammation, hyperammonemia, genetic background and intestinal dysbiosis possibly contribute to the cognitive decline in MASLD patients. However, its diagnosis is still underestimated since the leading mechanisms are multi-faceted and unexplained and do not exist standardized diagnostic tools or cognitive test strategies. In this scenario, nutritional and lifestyle interventions as well as intestinal microbiota manipulation (probiotics, fecal transplantation) may represent new approaches to counteract mental impairment in these subjects. In sum, to face the "mental aspect" of this multifactorial disease which is almost unexplored, cognitive tools should be introduced in the management of MASLD patients.

Pharmacology of bioactive compounds from plant extracts for improving non-alcoholic fatty liver disease through endoplasmic reticulum stress modulation: A comprehensive review. Heliyon 2024; 10:e25053. [PMID: 38322838 PMCID: PMC10844061 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25053] [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: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent chronic liver condition with significant clinical implications. Emerging research indicates endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress as a critical pathogenic factor governing inflammatory responses, lipid metabolism and insulin signal transduction in patients with NAFLD. ER stress-associated activation of multiple signal transduction pathways, including the unfolded protein response, disrupts lipid homeostasis and substantially contributes to NAFLD development and progression. Targeting ER stress for liver function enhancement presents an innovative therapeutic strategy. Notably, the natural bioactive compounds of plant extracts have shown potential for treating NAFLD by reducing the level of ER stress marker proteins and mitigating inflammation, stress responses, and de novo lipogenesis. However, owing to limited comprehensive reviews, the effectiveness and pharmacology of these bioactive compounds remain uncertain. Objectives To address the abovementioned challenges, the current review categorizes the bioactive compounds of plant extracts by chemical structures and properties into flavonoids, phenols, terpenoids, glycosides, lipids and quinones and examines their ameliorative potential for NAFLD under ER stress. Methods This review systematically analyses the literature on the interactions of bioactive compounds from plant extracts with molecular targets under ER stress, providing a holistic view of NAFLD therapy. Results Bioactive compounds from plant extracts may improve NAFLD by alleviating ER stress; reducing lipid synthesis, inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis and enhancing fatty acid metabolism. This provides a multifaceted approach for treating NAFLD. Conclusion This review underscores the role of ER stress in NAFLD and the potential of plant bioactive compounds in treating this condition. The molecular mechanisms by which plant bioactive compounds interact with their ER stress targets provide a basis for further exploration in NAFLD management.

Potential value of Interleukin-6 as a diagnostic biomarker in human MDD and the antidepressant effect of its receptor antagonist tocilizumab in lipopolysaccharide-challenged rats. Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 124:110903.

Abstract
Depression is a common mental disease with disastrous effect on the health and wealth globally. Focusing on the role for inflammation and immune activation in the pathogenesis of depression, many tries have been taken into effect targeting at the blockage of inflammatory cytokines, among which interleukin- 6 (IL-6) and its receptor antagonist tocilizumab attracts more attention, with inconsistent findings. Moderate to severe depressive disorder (MSDD) patients were enrolled and the serum concentrations of IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) measured, their correlation with the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-24 (HAMD-24) scores was analyzed, and their role in discriminating MSDD patients from the health controls were evaluated. Meanwhile, a depression rat model was established by intraperitoneal injection of LPS, and tocilizumab was administrated doing 50 mg/kg via intravenous injection. The behavioral performance was observed, the serum concentration of IL-6, TNF-α, and C-reactive protein (CRP) was measured, and the protein expression of IL-6 and TNF-α in the hippocampus were also detected. The activity of the Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis was observed, and the protein expression levels in the hippocampus were detected via western blot. Moreover, the immunofluorescence staining (IF) technique was used to investigate the co-location of IL-6 and neuron (MAP2), astrocyte (GFAP), or microglial (IBA-1). The results showed that the serum IL-6 level was significantly increased in the MSDD patients and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-challenged rats, with a significant correlation with the HAMD-24 scores or struggling time in the FST and corticosterone (CORT) abundance. Results of ROC analysis showed a significant diagnosis value of IL-6 in discriminating MSDD patients or depression rats from the controls in the present study. Tocilizumab could relieve the depression-like behaviors induced by LPS, together with a normal abundance of serum CORT and hypothalamic CRH expression. Moreover, tocilizumab could alleviate the "inflammatory storm" and impaired hippocampal synaptic plasticity in LPS-challenged depression rats, inhibiting the hyperactivation of astrocyte and microglia, decreasing the peripheral and central abundance of IL-6, CRP, and TNF-α, and balancing the hippocampal expression levels of synaptic plasticity-associated proteins and key molecular in Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. These results indicated a predictive role of IL-6 in discriminating depression from controls, and demonstrated an antidepressant effect of tocilizumab in LPS-challenged rats, targeting at the inflammatory storm and the subsequent impairments of hippocampal synaptic plasticity.

Abstract
Melatonin (MLT) is ahormonal substance reported with various pharmacological activities.Based on its effects of neuroprotection and metabolic regulation, the aim of the present study is to investigate its potential effect on palmitic acid (PA)-induced cell injuries and glucolipid metabolic dysfunction and explore the possible mechanism. Briefly, HT-22 cells were challenged with PA (0.1 mM, 24 h) and treated with MLT (10-6-10-8 mol/L). Cell proliferation, lipid accumulation and glucose consumption were detected. The protein expression of key molecular involved with the function of synaptic plasticity and circadian rhythms were measured via western blotting, and the expression of Map-2, MT1A, MT1B and Bmal1 were measured via immunofluorescence staining. The results showed that MLT could alleviate the neurotoxicity induced by PA, as indicated by the increased cell proliferation, enhanced fluorescence intensity of Map-2, and decreased lipid deposition and insulin resistance. Moreover, treatment of MLT could reverse the imbalanced expression of p-Akt, p-ERK, Synapsin I, Synaptotagmin I, BDNF, MT1B, Bmal1, and Clock in PA-induced HT-22 cells. These results suggested a remarkably neuroprotective effect of MLT against PA-induced cell injury and glucolipid metabolic dysfunction, the mechanism of which might be involved in the regulation of synaptic plasticity and circadian rhythms.

Chronic social comparison elicits depression- and anxiety-like behaviors and alterations in brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression in male rats. Anim Cogn 2023; 26:1505-1519. [PMID: 37302101 DOI: 10.1007/s10071-023-01798-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Revised: 05/30/2023] [Accepted: 06/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Social comparison is a fundamental human characteristic; however, long-term social comparison may induce psychological stress and can lead to depression and anxiety. Recent studies have shown that nonhuman primates compare themselves with others; however, no studies have investigated whether social comparisons exist among rodents. In the present study, we established a rat model of social comparison. This model was subsequently used to examine the effects of the differential environment of a partner on depression- and anxiety-like behaviors in male rats, as well as to assess the changes in serum, medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), and dorsal hippocampus brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels induced by long-term social comparison. Compared to rats whose partners were exposed to the same environment, rats whose partners were exposed to two combined enriched environmental stimuli for 14 days showed significantly decreased social novelty preference and sucrose consumption. No anxiety-like behaviors were observed. Rats whose partners were exposed to one enriched environment for 31 days showed significantly increased immobility time in the forced swimming test, and significantly decreased time spent in the center area in the open-field test. Further, rats whose partners were exposed to one enriched environment for 31 days showed lower BDNF levels in the mPFC and dorsal hippocampus, but not following partner exposure for 14 days. These results suggest that social comparisons exist in rats and can induce psychosocial stress and other negative affect. This model will not only provide the possibility to reveal the neurobiological basis of the emotional impact of social comparison, but could also be used to confirm the conservative evolutionary characteristics of social comparison as a behavioral attribute.

Liu M, Liu R, Yang M, Ba Y, Deng Q, Zhang Y, Han L, Gao L, Huang H. Combined exposure to lead and high-fat diet induced neuronal deficits in rats: Anti-neuroinflammatory role of SIRT1. Food Chem Toxicol 2023; 177:113857. [PMID: 37244597 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2023.113857] [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: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lead (Pb) exposure and high-fat diet (HFD) trigger neurotoxicity, which may involve neuroinflammation. However, the mechanism by which combined Pb and HFD exposure induces nucleotide oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has not been fully elucidated. MATERIAL AND METHODS The Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat model of exposure to Pb and HFD was established to reveal the influence of co-exposure on cognition and identify signaling clues that mediate neuroinflammation and synaptic dysregulation. PC12 cells was treated with Pb and PA in vitro. Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) agonist (SRT 1720) was employed as intervention agent. RESULTS Our results showed that Pb and HFD exposure induced cognitive impairment and lead to neurological damage in rats. Meanwhile, Pb and HFD could stimulate the NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and activate caspase 1, releasing proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18), further promoting neuronal cell activation and amplifying neuroinflammatory responses. Additionally, our findings suggest that SIRT1 plays a role in Pb and HFD induced neuroinflammation. However, the use of SRT 1720 agonists showed some potential in alleviating these impairments. CONCLUSION Pb exposure and HFD intake could induce neuronal damage through activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and synaptic dysregulation, while the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway may be rescued via activating SIRT1.

Abstract
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is an important member of the immunoglobulin family of inflammatory stimulating receptors and is involved in a number of pathophysiological processes. The present study aimed to investigate the role of TREM2 in neurotoxicity induced by high cholesterol levels in SH-SY5Y cells and explore the potential mechanism. SH-SY5Y cells were routinely cultured and stimulated with a range of cholesterol concentrations. Cell viability was assessed using an MTT assay, morphological changes were observed, and the cell cycle distribution was measured using flow cytometry. Lipid deposition was measured by Oil red O staining, and the mRNA and protein expression levels of SRBEP-1 and SRBEP-2 were detected by quantitative PCR and western blotting, respectively. Moreover, the protein expression levels of BDNF, Copine-6, TREM1, TREM2, and key molecules of the Wnt signaling pathways were detected by western blotting. Finally, TREM2 was overexpressed to investigate its potential role in high cholesterol-induced neurotoxicity. The results showed that cell viability was significantly decreased in SH-SY5Y cells stimulated with cholesterol (0.1~100 µM) in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Stimulation with 100 µM cholesterol for 24 h resulted in morphological injuries, increased the proportion of SH-SY5Y cells at G0/G1, the degree of lipid accumulation, and the protein expression levels of sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP)1 and SREBP2, markedly decreased the protein expression levels of BDNF, Copine-6, and TREM2, and the p-β-catenin/β-catenin ratio, and increased the expression levels of nesfatin-1, TREM1 and the p-GSK3β/GSK3β ratio. Furthermore, the imbalanced expression of BDNF, Copine-6, nesfatin-1, and p-GSK3β induced by high cholesterol levels was reversed after overexpression of TREM2. These results suggest that a high concentration of cholesterol could induce cell injury and lipid deposition in SH-SY5Y cells and that the underlying mechanism may be associated with imbalanced TREM2 expression.

Role of Bmal1 in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus-Related Glycolipid Metabolic Disorder and Neuropsychiatric Injury: Involved in the Regulation of Synaptic Plasticity and Circadian Rhythms. Mol Neurobiol 2023:10.1007/s12035-023-03360-5. [PMID: 37126129 DOI: 10.1007/s12035-023-03360-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 04/19/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2023]
Abstract
Increasing data suggest a crucial role of circadian rhythm in regulating metabolic and neurological diseases, and Bmal1 is regarded as a key regulator of circadian transcription. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of Bmal1 in the disruption of circadian rhythm and neuropsychiatric injuries in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A T2DM model was induced by the combination of high-fat-diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ) in vivo or HT-22 cells challenged with palmitic-acid (PA) in vitro. The glucolipid metabolism indicators, behavioral performance, and expression of synaptic plasticity proteins and circadian rhythm-related proteins were detected. These changes were also observed after interference of Bmal1 expression via overexpressed plasmid or small interfering RNAs in vitro. The results showed that HFD/STZ could induce T2DM-like glycolipid metabolic turmoil and abnormal neuropsychiatric behaviors in mice, as indicated by the increased concentrations of fasting blood-glucose (FBG), HbA1c and lipids, the impaired glucose tolerance, and the decreased preference index of novel object or novel arm in the novel object recognition test (NOR) and Y-maze test (Y-maze). Consistently, the protein expression of synaptic plasticity proteins and circadian rhythm-related proteins and the positive fluorescence intensity of MT1B and Bmal1 were decreased in the hippocampus of HFD/STZ-induced mice or PA-challenged HT-22 cells. Furthermore, overexpression of Bmal1 could improve the PA-induced lipid metabolic dysfunction and increase the decreased expressions of synaptic plasticity proteins and circadian rhythm-related proteins, and vice versa. These results suggested a crucial role of Bmal1 in T2DM-related glycolipid metabolic disorder and neuropsychiatric injury, which mechanism might be involved in the regulation of synaptic plasticity and circadian rhythms.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. As a result, pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions modifying risk factors for CVDs are a top priority of scientific research. Non-pharmaceutical therapeutical approaches, including herbal supplements, have gained growing interest from researchers as part of the therapeutic strategies for primary or secondary prevention of CVDs. Several experimental studies have supported the potential effects of apigenin, quercetin, and silibinin as beneficial supplements in cohorts at risk of CVDs. Accordingly, this comprehensive review focused critically on the cardioprotective effects/mechanisms of the abovementioned three bio-active compounds from natural products. For this purpose, we have included in vitro, preclinical, and clinical studies associated with atherosclerosis and a wide variety of cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, obesity, cardiac injury, and metabolic syndrome). In addition, we attempted to summarize and categorize the laboratory methods for their isolation and identification from plant extracts. This review unveiled many uncertainties which are still unexplored, such as the extrapolation of experimental results to clinical practice, mainly due to the small clinical studies, heterogeneous doses, divergent constituents, and the absence of pharmacodynamic/pharmacokinetic analyses.

[PMID: 36309937 DOI: 10.1007/s11064-022-03776-w] [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: 04/18/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Recent reports have suggested that abnormal miR-29c expression in hippocampus have been implicated in the pathophysiology of some neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. However, the underlying effect of miR-29c in regulating hippocampal neuronal function is not clear. In this study, HT22 cells were infected with lentivirus containing miR-29c or miR-29c sponge. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay kit were applied to evaluate cell viability and toxicity before and after TNF-α administration. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were measured with fluorescent probes. Hoechst 33258 staining and TUNEL assay were used to evaluate cell apoptosis. The expression of key mRNA/proteins (TNFR1, Bcl-2, Bax, TRADD, FADD, caspase-3, -8 and -9) in the apoptosis pathway was detected by PCR or WB. In addition, the protein expression of microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP-2), nerve growth-associated protein 43 (GAP-43) and synapsin-1 (SYN-1) was detected by WB. As a result, we found that miR-29c overexpression could improve cell viability, attenuate LDH release, reduce ROS production and inhibit MMP depolarization in TNF-α-treated HT22 cells. Furthermore, miR-29c overexpression was found to decrease apoptotic rate, along with decreased expression of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, and increased expression of Bcl-2 in TNF-α-treated HT22 cells. However, miR-29c sponge exhibited an opposite effects. In addition, in TNF-α-treated HT22 cells, miR-29c overexpression could decrease the expressions of TNFR1, TRADD, FADD and cleaved caspase-8. However, in HT22 cells transfected with miR-29c sponge, TNF-α-induced the expressions of TNFR1, TRADD, FADD and cleaved caspase-8 was significantly exacerbated. At last, TNF-α-induced the decreased expression of MAP-2, GAP-43 and SYN-1 was reversed by miR-29c but exacerbated by miR-29c sponge. Overall, our study demonstrated that miR-29c protects against TNF-α-induced HT22 cells injury through alleviating ROS production and reduce neuronal apoptosis. Therefore, miR-29c might be a potential therapeutic agent for TNF-α accumulation and toxicity-related brain diseases.

Abstract
Little is known about the effects of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and the combination of memantine and donepezil on the pathogenesis of cognitive impairment. Here, we aimed to identify in silico the molecular mechanisms of the combination of memantine and donepezil that combat cognitive impairment induced by nine common EDCs using GeneMania, AutoDock Vina, Metascape, SwissADME, MIENTURNET, and miRNAsong. We observed that the mixture of memantine and donepezil had therapeutic effects on mixed EDC-induced cognitive impairment via five genes (TNF, ACHE, BAX, IL1B, and CASP3). With ACHE and TNF, donepezil and memantine both had a high docking score, respectively. The predominant connections among five mutual genes were physical interactions (77.6%). The major pathways associated with memantine and donepezil countering cognitive impairment generated by mixed EDCs were discovered to be "AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications," "pro-survival signaling of neuroprotectin D1," and "non-alcoholic fatty liver disease." The miRNAs and transcription factors implicated in memantine and donepezil protecting against mixed EDCs were hsa-miR-128-3p and hsa-miR-34a-5p, NFKB1, NFKB2, IRF8, and E2F4. The sponges' tertiary structure predictions for two major miRNAs were provided. The physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of memantine and donepezil highlighted the need for a therapeutic combination of these medications to treat cognitive impairment.

Abstract
AbstractNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic disease characterized by multiple pathologies. The progression of dementia with NAFLD may be affected by various risk factors, including brain insulin resistance, cerebrovascular dysfunction, gut dysbiosis, and neuroinflammation. Many recent studies have focused on the increasing prevalence of dementia in patients with NAFLD. Dementia is characterized by cognitive and memory deficits and has diverse subtypes, including vascular dementia, Alzheimer’s dementia, and diabetes mellitus-induced dementia. Considering the common pathological features of NAFLD and dementia, further studies on the association between them are needed to find appropriate therapeutic solutions for diseases. This review summarizes the common pathological characteristics and mechanisms of NAFLD and dementia. Additionally, it describes recent evidence on association between NAFLD and dementia progression and provides novel perspectives with regard to the treatment of patients with dementia secondary to NAFLD.

Abstract
In recent decades, traditional eating habits have been replaced by a more globalized diet, rich in saturated fatty acids and simple sugars. Extensive evidence shows that these dietary factors contribute to cognitive health impairment as well as increase the incidence of metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes. However, how these nutrients modulate synaptic function and neuroplasticity is poorly understood. We review the Western, ketogenic, and paleolithic diets for their effects on cognition and correlations with synaptic changes, focusing mainly (but not exclusively) on animal model studies aimed at tracing molecular alterations that may contribute to impaired human cognition. We observe that memory and learning deficits mediated by high-fat/high-sugar diets, even over short exposure times, are associated with reduced arborization, widened synaptic cleft, narrowed post-synaptic zone, and decreased activity-dependent synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus, and also observe that these alterations correlate with deregulation of the AMPA-type glutamate ionotropic receptors (AMPARs) that are crucial to neuroplasticity. Furthermore, we explored which diet-mediated mechanisms modulate synaptic AMPARs and whether certain supplements or nutritional interventions could reverse deleterious effects, contributing to improved learning and memory in older people and patients with Alzheimer’s disease.

Potential Pharmaceutical Applications of Quercetin in Cardiovascular Diseases. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:ph15081019. [PMID: 36015169 PMCID: PMC9412669 DOI: 10.3390/ph15081019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 08/09/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Quercetin, as a member of flavonoids, has emerged as a potential therapeutic agent in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in recent decades. In this comprehensive literature review, our goal was a critical appraisal of the pathophysiological mechanisms of quercetin in relation to the classical cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., hyperlipidemia), atherosclerosis, etc. We also assessed experimental and clinical data about its potential application in CVDs. Experimental studies including both in vitro methods and in vivo animal models mainly outline the following effects of quercetin: (1) antihypertensive, (2) hypolipidemic, (3) hypoglycemic, (4) anti-atherosclerotic, and (5) cardioprotective (suppressed cardiotoxicity). From the clinical point of view, there are human studies and meta-analyses implicating its beneficial effects on glycemic and lipid parameters. In contrast, other human studies failed to demonstrate consistent favorable effects of quercetin on other cardiometabolic risk factors such as MS, obesity, and hypertension, underlying the need for further investigation. Analyzing the reason of this inconsistency, we identified significant drawbacks in the clinical trials’ design, while the absence of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic tests prior to the studies attenuated the power of clinical results. Therefore, additional well-designed preclinical and clinical studies are required to examine the therapeutic mechanisms and clinical efficacy of quercetin in CVDs.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23158654.

Abstract
Classic Galactosemia (CG) is a devastating inborn error of the metabolism caused by mutations in the GALT gene encoding the enzyme galactose-1 phosphate uridylyltransferase in galactose metabolism. Severe complications of CG include neurological impairments, growth restriction, cognitive delays, and, for most females, primary ovarian insufficiency. The absence of the GALT enzyme leads to an accumulation of aberrant galactose metabolites, which are assumed to be responsible for the sequelae. There is no treatment besides the restriction of dietary galactose, which does not halt the development of the complications; thus, additional treatments are sorely needed. Supplements have been used in other inborn errors of metabolism but are not part of the therapeutic regimen for CG. The goal of this study was to test two generally recognized as safe supplements (purple sweet potato color (PSPC) and myo-inositol (MI)) that may impact cellular pathways contributing to the complications in CG. Our group uses a GalT gene-trapped mouse model to study the pathophysiology in CG, which phenocopy many of the complications. Here we report the ability of PSPC to ameliorate dysregulation in the ovary, brain, and liver of our mutant mice as well as positive results of MI supplementation in the ovary and brain.

Bilateral intracerebroventricular injection of streptozotocin induces AD-like behavioral impairments and neuropathological features in mice: Involved with the fundamental role of neuroinflammation. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 153:113375. [PMID: 35834993 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2022.113375] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To establish an Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse model, investigate the behavioral performance changes and intracerebral molecular changes induced by bilateral intracerebroventricular injection of streptozotocin (STZ/I.C.V), and explore the potential pathogenesis of AD. METHODS An AD mouse model was established by STZ/I.C.V. The behavioral performance was observed via the open field test (OFT), novel object recognition test (NOR), and tail suspension test (TST). The mRNA and protein expressions of interleukin 1β (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in the hippocampus were measured via qPCR and Western blot. The expression of β-amyloid 1-42 (Aβ1-42), phosphorylated Tau protein (p-Tau (Ser396)), Tau5, β-site amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleaving enzyme (BACE), insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), Copine6, synaptotagmin-1 (Syt-1), synapsin-1, phosphoinositol 3 kinase (PI3K), serine/threonine kinase (Akt), phosphorylated serine/threonine kinase (p-Akt (Ser473)), triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1/2 (TREM1/2) were detected using Western blot, and the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1 (IBA1), Aβ1-42, p-Tau(Ser396), Syt-1, BDNF were measured via immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS STZ/I.C.V induced AD-like neuropsychiatric behaviors in mice, as indicated by the impairment of learning and memory, together with the reduced spontaneous movement and exploratory behavior. The expression of BACE, Aβ1-42, p-Tau(Ser396), and TREM2 were significantly increased in the hippocampus of model mice, while the expression of IRS1, BDNF, Copine6, Syt-1, synapsin-1, PI3K, p-Akt(Ser473), and TREM1 were decreased as compared with that of the controls. Furthermore, the model mice presented a hyperactivation of astrocytes and microglia in the hippocampus, accompanied by the increased mRNA and protein expressions of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α. CONCLUSION STZ/I.C.V is an effective way to induce AD mice model, with not only AD-like neuropsychiatric behaviors, but also typic AD-like neuropathological features including neurofibrillary tangles, deposit of β-amyloid (Aβ), neuroinflammation, and imbalanced synaptic plasticity.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a decrease in mental capacity that can occur days to weeks after a medical procedure and may become permanent and rarely lasts for a longer period of time. With the continuous development of research, various viewpoints in academic circles have undergone subtle changes, and the role of anesthesia depth and anesthesia type seems to be gradually weakened; Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a latent and progressive neurodegenerative disease in the elderly. The protein hypothesis and the synaptic hypothesis are well-known reasons. These changes will also lead to the occurrence of an inflammatory cascade. The exact etiology and pathogenesis need to be studied. The reasonable biological mechanism affecting brain protein deposition, neuroinflammation, and acetylcholine-like effect has a certain relationship between AD and POCD. Whereas there is still further uncertainty about the mechanism and treatment, and it is elusive whether POCD is a link in the continuous progress of AD or a separate entity, which has doubts about the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. Therefore, this review is based on the current common clinical characteristics of AD and POCD, and pathophysiological research, to search for their common points and explore the direction and new strategies for future treatment.
