Yao X, Zhou Z. Dietary intake of luteolin is negatively associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in chronic kidney disease patients. BMC Public Health 2024; 24:2044. [PMID: 39080632 PMCID: PMC11290116 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-19458-x] [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: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Luteolin (Lut), a flavonoid present in the daily diet, exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and renoprotective effects. However, the association between Lut and chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains uncertain. The objective of this study is to explore the potential correlation. METHODS A total of 2,393 CKD patients were enrolled in a prospective cohort in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). A 24-h dietary recall was utilized to estimate the intake of dietary Lut based on the type and amount of food consumed. The National Death Index mortality data was utilized to ascertain all-cause and cardiac mortality (as of December 27, 2023). Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate the relationship between Lut intake and mortality risk. RESULTS The median Lut intake was 0.305 mg/day, with interquartile range was 0.105-0.775 mg/day. During the follow-up period (median, 93 months), 682 all-cause deaths (217 cardiovascular disease [CVD] deaths) were recorded. Per unit increase in Lut intake reduced all-cause mortality by 27% (P < 0.001) and cardiac mortality by 34% (P = 0.01) in CKD patients. There was an inverse dose-response association between Lut intake (range: 0-8.945 mg/day) and mortality risk. Consistent results were also shown when stratified by age, sex, race, marital status, body mass index, CKD stage, urine protein creatinine ratio strata, CKD progression risk, hypertension, and CVD. CONCLUSION Dietary Lut intake is associated with a reduction in all-cause and cardiac mortality among CKD patients, potentially attributable to the anti-inflammatory characteristics of Lut.

[PMID: 39070259 PMCID: PMC11272662 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2024.1409339] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Considering a growing, aging population, the need for interventions to improve the healthspan in aging are tantamount. Diet and nutrition are important determinants of the aging trajectory. Plant-based diets that provide bioactive phytonutrients may contribute to offsetting hallmarks of aging and reducing the risk of chronic disease. Researchers now advocate moving toward a positive model of aging which focuses on the preservation of functional abilities, rather than an emphasis on the absence of disease. This narrative review discusses the modulatory effect of nutrition on aging, with an emphasis on promising phytonutrients, and their potential to influence cellular, organ and functional parameters in aging. The literature is discussed against the backdrop of a recent conceptual framework which describes vitality, intrinsic capacity and expressed capacities in aging. This aims to better elucidate the role of phytonutrients on vitality and intrinsic capacity in aging adults. Such a review contributes to this new scientific perspective-namely-how nutrition might help to preserve functional abilities in aging, rather than purely offsetting the risk of chronic disease.

J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich) 2024; 26:573-583. [PMID: 38630898 PMCID: PMC11088421 DOI: 10.1111/jch.14807] [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: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
Although in vitro experiments have demonstrated the potential of flavonoid compounds in regulating blood pressure, there is still a lack of evidence from large population studies. We conducted a cross-sectional study using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to investigate the relationship between flavonoid intake levels (natural log transformation) and hypertension events. A total of 15 752 participants aged over 20 years were included, and a weighted multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the relationship between total flavonoids, five sub types intake, and hypertension events. Smooth curve fitting was used to explore potential nonlinear relationships. Higher total flavonoids intake was associated with a lower risk of hypertension than the lowest group. The adjusted odds ratios (95% CIs) were 0.79 (0.70-0.88) for total flavonoids intake. Elevated total flavonoids intake levels were significantly and linearly associated with a lower risk of hypertension. For each unit increase in the total flavonoids intake level, the adjusted ORs for risk of hypertension decrease by 5% (OR 0.95; 95% CI, 0.92-0.98). In addition, in restricted cubic spline regression, we found that flavan-3-ols, anthocyanidins, and flavonols intake were linearly and negatively related to prevalence of hypertension. Flavones intake showed nonlinear associations with prevalence of hypertension with inflection points of -1.90. Within a certain range, a negative correlation exists between flavonoids intake and hypertension events. This finding provides insights into dietary modifications in the prevention of hypertension.

Luteolin suppresses oral carcinoma 3 (OC3) cell growth and migration via modulating polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) expression and cellular energy metabolism. J Zhejiang Univ Sci B 2023; 24:1151-1158.

Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a prevalent malignant tumor affecting the head and neck region (Leemans et al., 2018). It is often diagnosed at a later stage, leading to a poor prognosis (Muzaffar et al., 2021; Li et al., 2023). Despite advances in OSCC treatment, the overall 5-year survival rate of OSCC patients remains alarmingly low, falling below 50% (Jehn et al., 2019; Johnson et al., 2020). According to statistics, only 50% of patients with oral cancer can be treated with surgery. Once discovered, it is more frequently at an advanced stage. In addition, owing to the aggressively invasive and metastatic characteristics of OSCC, most patients die within one year of diagnosis. Hence, the pursuit of novel therapeutic drugs and treatments to improve the response of oral cancer to medication, along with a deeper understanding of their effects, remains crucial objectives in oral cancer research (Johnson et al., 2020; Bhat et al., 2021; Chen et al., 2023; Ruffin et al., 2023).

Abstract
Western lifestyle contributes to an overt increase in the prevalence of metabolic anomalies including diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity. Prevalence of DM is rapidly growing worldwide, affecting many individuals in both developing and developed countries. DM is correlated with the onset and development of complications with diabetic nephropathy (DN), diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC) and diabetic neuropathy being the most devastating pathological events. On the other hand, Nrf2 is a regulator for redox balance in cells and accounts for activation of antioxidant enzymes. Dysregulation of Nrf2 signaling has been shown in various human diseases such as DM. This review focuses on the role Nrf2 signaling in major diabetic complications and targeting Nrf2 for treatment of this disease. These three complications share similarities including the presence of oxidative stress, inflammation and fibrosis. Onset and development of fibrosis impairs organ function, while oxidative stress and inflammation can evoke damage to cells. Activation of Nrf2 signaling significantly dampens inflammation and oxidative damage, and is beneficial in retarding interstitial fibrosis in diabetic complications. SIRT1 and AMPK are among the predominant pathways to upregulate Nrf2 expression in the amelioration of DN, DC and diabetic neuropathy. Moreover, certain therapeutic agents such as resveratrol and curcumin, among others, have been employed in promoting Nrf2 expression to upregulate HO-1 and other antioxidant enzymes in the combat of oxidative stress in the face of DM.
