Abstract
RATIONALE Patients with schizophrenia with second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) treatment have shown an increased risk of bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture; however, it is still unclear whether this risk is derived from the effect of antipsychotics on balance of bone metabolism. OBJECTIVES We investigated the changes of two bone turnover biomarkers (BTMs) concentrations in people with schizophrenia receiving SGAs: procollagen type I aminoterminal propeptide (PINP) and C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX-1) as BTMs of osteogenesis and bone resorption, respectively, to explore how antipsychotics contribute to bone fragility. METHODS We recruited 59 Chinese male patients with schizophrenia (32 drug-naïve first-episode (DNFE) patients and 27 chronic patients) to undergo 8 weeks SGAs treatment. Fasting peripheral blood samples of pre- and posttreatment were collected, plasma levels of PINP and CTX-1 were measured. RESULTS The interaction effects of group and time on PINP and CTX-1 concentrations were found (P = .016 and P = .008). There was a significant decrease for both BTMs concentrations of the posttreatment compared to the pretreatment (P<.001 and P = .003). Chronic patients had significantly higher changes of BTMs concentrations compared to DNFE patients (P = .048 and P = .024). There was a positive correlation of the two BTMs of pretreatment with disease course in DNFE group (r = .37, P = .039;r = .38, P = .035) and a negative correlation of PINP of pretreatment with age in the chronic group (r=-.40, P = .039). CONCLUSION Long-term SGAs medication inhibited osteogenesis in a dose- and time-dependent manner and damaged the balance of bone formation and bone resorption.

Abstract
Neuropsychiatric disorders are anticipated to be a leading health concern in the near future, emphasizing an outstanding need for the development of new effective therapeutics to treat them. Stilbenes, with resveratrol attracting the most attention, are an example of multi-target compounds with promising therapeutic potential for a broad array of neuropsychiatric and neurological conditions. This review is a comprehensive summary of the current state of research on stilbenes in several neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders such as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorders, epilepsy, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative disorders. We describe and discuss the results of both in vitro and in vivo studies. The majority of studies concentrate on resveratrol, with limited findings exploring other stilbenes such as pterostilbene, piceatannol, polydatin, tetrahydroxystilbene glucoside, or synthetic resveratrol derivatives. Overall, although extensive preclinical studies show the potential benefits of stilbenes in various central nervous system disorders, clinical evidence on their therapeutic efficacy is largely missing.

Abstract
Antipsychotics are commonly used in treating psychiatric disorders. These medications primarily target dopamine the serotonin receptors, they have some affinity to adrenergic, histamine, glutamate and muscarinic receptors. There is clinical evidence that antipsychotic use decreases BMD and increases fracture risk, with dopamine, serotonin and adrenergic receptor-signalling becoming an increasing area of focus where the presence of these receptors in osteoclasts and osteoblasts have been demonstrated. Osteoclasts and osteoblasts are the most important cells in the bone remodelling and the bone regeneration process where the activity of these cells determine the bone resorption and formation process in order to maintain healthy bone. However, an imbalance in osteoclast and osteoblast activity can lead to decreased BMD and increased fracture risk, which is also believed to be exacerbated by antipsychotics use. Therefore, the aim of this review is to provide an overview of the mechanisms of action of first, second and third generation antipsychotics and the expression profiles of dopamine, serotonin and adrenergic receptors during osteoclastogenesis and osteoblastogenesis.

Gestational Exposure to Haloperidol Changes Cdkn1a and Apaf1 mRNA Expressions in Mouse Hippocampus. Brain Res Bull 2023; 199:110662. [PMID: 37150328 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2023.110662] [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: 03/09/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The onset of schizophrenia is associated with both genetic and environmental risks during brain development. Environmental factors during pregnancy can represent risk factors for schizophrenia, and we have previously reported that several microRNA and mRNA expression changes in fetal brains exposed to haloperidol during pregnancy may be related to the onset of this disease. This study aimed to replicate that research and focused on apoptotic-related gene expression changes. METHODS Haloperidol (1mg/kg) or aripiprazole (1mg/kg) was injected into pregnant mice. Using RNA sequencing for the hippocampus of each offspring born from pregnant mice exposed to haloperidol, we analyzed genes identified as changed in our previous report and validated two apoptosis-related genes (Cdkn1a and Apaf1) using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) methods. Furthermore, we attempted to elucidate the direct effects of haloperidol and aripiprazole on those mRNA expressions in in vitro experiments. RESULTS RNA sequencing successfully replicated 16 up-regulated and 5 down-regulated genes in this study. Of those, up-regulations of Cdkn1a and Apaf1 mRNA expression were successfully validated by direct quantification. Moreover, haloperidol and aripiprazole dose-dependent upregulation of both mRNA expressions were confirmed in a Neuro2a cell line. CONCLUSIONS In the hippocampus of offspring, intraperitoneal injection of haloperidol to pregnant mice induced up-regulation of apoptotic genes that representing the phenotypic change without apoptosis. These findings will be useful for understanding the molecular biological mechanisms underlying the effects of antipsychotics on the fetal brain.

Abstract
Several studies indicate the influence of olanzapine on bone metabolism; however, the results are contradictory. We evaluated the effects of olanzapine on the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, physiological alveolar bone turnover, and alveolar bone modeling due to an applied orthodontic force. Adult male rats (n=48) were treated with either olanzapine or a vehicle for 21 days; then 8 rats from each group were sacrificed and the rest were divided into 4 groups: control, appliance-only, olanzapine-only, and olanzapine-appliance. The rats in the appliance groups were mounted with a superelastic closed coil spring that maintained constant orthodontic force between molars and incisors. We studied the effects of olanzapine on physiological alveolar bone turnover on day 21 of the experiment, and on alveolar bone modeling due to orthodontic force on day 56. We determined tooth movement, alveolar bone volume, activity of bone-specific cells, serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and gene expression levels of Wnt/β-catenin signaling target genes. During forced bone modeling, olanzapine increased osteoblast volume (P<0.0001) and ALP activity (P=0.0011) and decreased osteoclast volume (P<0.0001) and gene expression of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling target genes Fosl1, Axin2, and Dkk1(P=0.001, P=0.0076, and P=0.036, respectively), and the osteocyte markers Sost and Dmp1 (P=0.0432 and P=0.0021, respectively). Similar results were obtained during physiological alveolar bone turnover on day 21, when olanzapine downregulated the gene expression of osteocyte markers and Wnt/β-catenin signaling target genes. We concluded that olanzapine attenuated osteocyte maturation during forced bone modeling and physiological alveolar bone turnover, potentially through downregulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Abstract
Objective. Modified levels of pro- (caspase3, Bax) and anti-apoptotic (Bcl-2) regulatory proteins have been detected in certain brain areas of schizophrenic patients indicating a possible dysregulation of apoptosis. In the present study, effects of antipsychotics, haloperidol (HAL) and olanzapine (OLA), on the gene expression of caspase3 (casp3), Bax and Bcl-2 were studied in vitro in mouse hippocampal mHippoE-2 cell line and in vivo in the hippocampus of MK-801 animal schizophrenia model with the aim to provide evidence that antipsychotics may affect the activity of apoptosis-related markers. Methods. mHippoE-2 cells were incubated with MK-801 (20 µM), HAL (10 µM), and OLA (10 µM) alone or combined, MK-801+HAL/OLA, for 24, 48, and 72 h. Male Sprague Dawley rats were injected with saline or MK-801 (0.5 mg/kg) for 6 days and since the 7th day, they were treated with vehicle (VEH), HAL (1 mg/kg) or OLA (2 mg/kg) for the next 7 days. The casp3, Bax and Bcl-2 gene expression in mHippoE-2 cells and rat hippocampus was measured by RT-PCR. Results. In mHippoE-2 cells, casp3 gene expression was increased by MK-801 and OLA treatments alone for 48 h, HAL treatment alone for 24 and 72 h, and co-treatment with MK-801+OLA for 24 and 72 h compared to controls. HAL and OLA suppressed the stimulatory effect of MK-801 on casp3 mRNA levels in cells after 48 h of incubation. Bax mRNA levels in mHippoE-2 cells were decreased after HAL treatment for 24 and 48 h, and also after co-treatment with MK-801+HAL for 72 h. In vivo, MK-801 decreased mRNA levels of both pro-apoptotic markers, casp3 and Bax, in hippocampus of VEH-treated rats and Bax mRNA levels in hippocampus of HAL-treated animals. OLA reversed the inhibitory effect of MK-801 on casp3 expression in the VEH-treated animals. Neither MK-801 nor antipsychotics induced changes in the gene expression of anti-apoptotic marker Bcl-2 in mHippoE-2 cells as well as hippocampus of rats. Conclusions. The results of the present study demonstrate that antipsychotics, HAL and OLA, may affect mRNA levels of pro-apoptotic markers in hippocampal cells in vitro, but not in vivo. The obtained data do not clearly support the assumed potentiating role of MK-801 in inducing apoptosis in specific brain areas and a possible protective role of antipsychotics against induction of apoptosis. The obtained data may contribute to a deeper insight into the neurodevelopmental changes connected with schizophrenia.

Abstract
Background Sepsis-induced liver dysfunction is believed to be an independent risk factor for multiple organ dysfunction and death. Idebenone (IDE), a synthetic analog of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), possesses an antioxidizing property. The present study aimed to investigate the efficacy of IDE on sepsis-induced liver injury and discuss its reaction mechanism in vivo and in vitro. Methods To establish an in vivo model of sepsis-induced liver injury, rats were treated with high-grade cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Hematoxylin-eosin staining was applied to observe the liver pathological changes, and liver function was examined using alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) assay kits. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits were employed to assess the levels of inflammatory cytokines in serum and tissues. The activities of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were analyzed using MDA, SOD, and GSH-Px assay kits, respectively. The apoptosis of liver tissues was measured by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining, and western blot was employed to estimate apoptosis-related proteins. In vitro, 0.5 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was adopted to administrate primary hepatocytes. The expressions of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE)/p38-related proteins were evaluated by western blot. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and dichloro-dihydro-fluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) assays were utilized to estimate cell viability and reactive oxygen species (ROS) content. Moreover, the transfection efficacy of overexpression (Ov)-RAGE in primary hepatocytes was tested by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blot. Results IDE could improve liver function and reduce sepsis-induced pathological damage. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the serum and liver tissue of sepsis rats were suppressed by IDE. Additionally, IDE repressed the oxidative stress and apoptosis of liver tissues in sepsis-induced rats. IDE also inhibited RAGE/p38 signaling. Furthermore, IDE revived the decreased viability in LPS-induced hepatocytes concentration-dependently. After overexpressing RAGE, RAGE expression in hepatocytes was significantly elevated. Further functional experiments revealed that IDE attenuated cell viability injury, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory damage in LPS-induced hepatocytes via RAGE/p38 signaling. Conclusions IDE helped to protect against sepsis-induced liver injury via the regulation of RAGE/p38 signaling.

Abstract
Antipsychotics are used in the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders. Generally they are divided into typical and atypical ones, according to the fact that atypical antipychotics induce less side effects and are more effective in terms of social and cognitive improvements. Their pharmacological effects are mediated via broad range of receptors that consequently influence different cellular signaling pathways. Antipsychotics produce udesirable side effects that range from relatively minor to life-threatening ones. In vitro and in vivo studies have pointed to neurotoxic effect exerted by some antipsychotics and have shown that apoptosis might play role in some side effects induced by antipsyschotics, including tardive dyskinesia, weight gain, agranulocytosis, osteoporosis, myocarditis, etc. Although cumulative data have suggested safety of atypical antipsychotics use during pregnancy some of them have been shown to induce apoptotic neurodegenerative and structural changes in fetal brains with long-lasting impact on cognitive impairment of offsprings. Typical antipsychotics seem to be more cytotoxic than atypical ones. Recently, epidemiological studies have shown lower incidence of cancer in schizophrenic patients what suggest ability of antipsychotics to suppress risk of cancer development. Some antipsychotics have been reported to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and induce their apoptosis. Thus, antipsychotics apoptotic effect may be used as a tool in the treatmnet of some types of cancer, especially in combinatorial therapies. In this minireview, we focused on pro- and anti-apototic or "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" effects of antipsychotics, which can be involved in their side effects, as well as their promising therapeutical indications.

Abstract
Dihydromyricetin (DMY) is a natural flavonoid that possesses a wide range of pharmacological properties. The aim of the present study was to determine whether DMY could protect against nerve cell injury following ischemic stroke through antioxidant and neuroprotective effects. The effects of DMY on the viability, oxidative stress and apoptosis of HT22 cells following oxygen‑glucose deprivation and re‑oxygenation (OGD/R) were examined using MTT, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), superoxide (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), western blot and TUNEL assays. Furthermore, Wnt/β‑catenin signaling proteins in OGD/R‑stimulated HT22 cells were detected in the presence or absence of DMY. In a separate experiment, the effect of DMY on OGD/R‑induced HT22 cell injury was also observed in the presence of the Wnt/β‑catenin inhibitor, XAV939. The results demonstrated that DMY had no impact on the survival of untreated HT22 cells, although DMY treatment significantly increased cell viability and inhibited cytotoxicity, oxidative stress and apoptosis following OGD/R. In addition, DMY upregulated the expression of Wnt/β‑catenin in OGD/R‑stimulated HT22 cells. In conclusion, DMY protected HT22 cells from OGD/R‑induced oxidative stress and apoptosis, and its effects may be mediated by the activation of the Wnt/β‑catenin signaling pathway.

Abstract
RationaleTraf2- and Nck-interacting kinase (TNIK), a member of germinal center kinase (GCK) family, has been implicated as a risk factor in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder as well as the action of antipsychotics. TNIK is an essential activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway which has been identified involved in the mechanism underlying the effects of antipsychotics. Thus, the effects of TNIK on antipsychotics may be achieved by influencing Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway proteins.Objectives and methodsIn the current study, the effects of up- or downregulated TNIK on β-catenin, T-cell factor 4 (TCF-4), glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β), and phosphorylated GSK3β (p-GSK3β) were examined in the human glioma U251 cells. Then, we observed the effects of antipsychotics (clozapine and risperidone) on the above proteins and evaluated the role of differentially expressed TNIK on antipsychotic-treated cell groups.ResultsThe result showed that clozapine treatment decreased β-catenin and TCF-4 levels in U251 cells, and risperidone had the similar effects on β-catenin and p-GSK3β. The downregulated TNIK using siRNA impeded the regulation of antipsychotics on Wnt pathway proteins via increasing the expression levels of TCF-4, β-catenin, or p-GSK3β, whereas the upregulated TNIK made no significant change.ConclusionsThe influence of TNIK on the effects of antipsychotics may be partly through Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Antipsychotics, in particular olanzapine, are first-line medications for schizophrenia. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is an important region for antipsychotics' therapeutic effects. The PFC inflammatory and immune pathways are associated with schizophrenia pathogenesis. However, the effect of antipsychotics on the inflammatory and immune pathways in the PFC remains unclear. We aimed to examined the time-dependent effect of olanzapine on inflammatory and immune markers in the PFC of rats. Since the inflammatory and immune pathways are related to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, we further investigated whether or not olanzapine-induced inflammation and immune responses were related to ER stress. METHODS Expression of pro-inflammatory markers including IkappaB kinase β (IKKβ), nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1β, and immune-related proteins including inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14) were examined by Western blotting. RESULTS Olanzapine treatments for 1, 8 and 36 days significantly activated the inflammatory IKKβ/NFκB signaling, and increased the expression of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and immune-related proteins such as iNOS, TLR4 and CD14. Olanzapine treatment for 1 day, 8 and 36 days also induced ER stress in the PFC. Co-treatment with an ER stress inhibitor, 4-phenylbutyrate, inhibited olanzapine-induced inflammation and the immune response in the PFC. CONCLUSION These results suggested olanzapine exposure could be a factor that induces central inflammation and immunological abnormities in schizophrenia subjects. Olanzapine induces PFC inflammation and immune response, possibly via activating ER stress signaling.
