Abstract
Berberine (BBR), an isoquinoline alkaloid, possesses multiply pharmacological effects as a potential therapeutic drug for antipsychotic-induced metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, the underlying therapeutic mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In this study, we aim to investigate the possible mechanisms by identifying the key targets and biological pathways through network pharmacology and molecular docking analysis. A total of 23 overlapping targets in the intersection set among BBR, atypical antipsychotic drugs (AADs), and MetS were determined. PPI network analysis showed that 22 out of the 23 overlapping targets closely interacted with the others. The following pathway enrichment analysis and molecular docking indicated a central role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARG) as the key target of BBR against AAD-induced MetS by acting on the PPAR signaling pathway, lipid and atherosclerosis, and AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway. In addition, cytochrome P-450 2D6 (CYP2D6) could be considered as another target of BBR in ameliorating antipsychotic-induced metabolic side effects. Collectively, this study investigated the central targets and biological pathways of BBR against AAD-induced MetS from a systematic perspective, and thus brings novel insights into further understanding of the protective effects of BBR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Overconsumption of processed foods has led to an increase in chronic diet-related diseases such obesity and type 2 diabetes. Although diets high in fresh fruits and vegetables are linked with healthier outcomes, the specific mechanisms for these relationships are poorly understood. Experiments examining plant phytochemical production and breeding programs, or separately on the health effects of nutritional supplements have yielded results that are sparse, siloed, and difficult to integrate between the domains of human health and agriculture. To connect plant products to health outcomes through their molecular mechanism an integrated computational resource is necessary. RESULTS We created the Aliment to Bodily Condition Knowledgebase (ABCkb) to connect plants to human health by creating a stepwise path from plant [Formula: see text] plant product [Formula: see text] human gene [Formula: see text] pathways [Formula: see text] indication. ABCkb integrates 11 curated sources as well as relationships mined from Medline abstracts by loading into a graph database which is deployed via a Docker container. This new resource, provided in a queryable container with a user-friendly interface connects plant products with human health outcomes for generating nutritive hypotheses. All scripts used are available on github ( https://github.com/atrautm1/ABCkb ) along with basic directions for building the knowledgebase and a browsable interface is available ( https://abckb.charlotte.edu ).

Variants in HSD11B1 gene modulate susceptibility to diabetes kidney disease and to insulin resistance in type 1 diabetes. Diabetes Metab Res Rev 2021; 37:e3352. [PMID: 32453474 DOI: 10.1002/dmrr.3352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2019] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Accepted: 05/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM 11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 has been implicated in insulin resistance (IR) in the setting of metabolic disorders, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in its encoding gene (HSD11B1) have been associated with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. In type 1 diabetes (T1D), IR has been related to the development of chronic complications. We investigated the association of HSD11B1 SNPs with microvascular complications and with IR in a Brazilian cohort of T1D individuals. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five SNPs were genotyped in 466 T1D individuals (57% women; median of 37 years old, diabetes duration of 25 years and HbA1c of 8.4%). RESULTS The minor allele T of rs11799643 was nominally associated with diabetic retinopathy (OR = 0.52; confidence interval [CI] 95% = 0.28-0.96; P = .036). The minor allele C of rs17389016 was nominally associated with overt diabetic kidney disease (DKD) (OR = 1.90; CI 95% = 1.07-3.37; P = .028). A follow-up study revealed that 29% of the individuals lost ≥5 mL min-1 × 1.73 m2 per year of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). In these individuals (eGFR decliners), C allele of rs17389016 was more frequent than in non-decliners (OR = 2.10; CI 95% = 1.14-3.89; P = .018). Finally, minor allele T of rs846906 associated with higher prevalence of arterial hypertension, higher body mass index and waist circumference, thus conferring risk to a lower estimated glucose disposal rate, a surrogate marker of insulin sensitivity (OR = 1.23; CI 95% = 1.06-1.42; P = .004). CONCLUSION SNPs in the HSD11B1 gene may confer susceptibility to DKD and to IR in T1D individuals.

Abstract
Background 11β HSD1 generates cortisol from cortisone. 11β HSD1 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was associated with metabolic syndrome (MeTS). Although the relation of acne vulgaris (AV) and skin tags (STs) with MeTS has been reported, the relationship between 11β HSD 1 SNP and cortisol activity in those patients has not studied till now. Aims To investigate, two 11β-HSD1 SNPs (rs846910 and rs12086634), serum lipid profile and cortisol levels in patients with AV and STs in an Egyptian population. Patients and methods This case–control study was performed on 50 patients having STs and 50 complaining of AV and 50 sex- and age-matched controls. We searched for serum lipid profile, cortisol levels, and 11β-HSD1 rs846910 and rs12086634 SNPs using real time-PCR. Results Compared to controls,11β-HSD1 rs846910 GA genotype carriers had significantly higher risks for developing AV and STs by 3.4- and 4.9-fold, respectively, and its A allele increases these risks by 3.1 and 4.4 times, respectively. Also, 11β-HSD1 rs12086634 TG genotype increases the risk of AV by 3.2-fold, as well as STs by 3.5-fold, and its G allele increases the risk of AV by 3.2-fold and STs by 7-fold. In AV and ST patients, rs846910 GA genotype demonstrated significant associations with elevated body mass index (BMI), and cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL), cortisol, and decreased high density lipoprotein serum levels, respectively. However, rs12086634 GG genotype was significantly associated with increased BMI, cholesterol, and LDL serum levels in patients with AV and STs, in addition to the number of STs and serum cortisol levels in ST patients. Conclusion 11β-HSD1 rs846910 and rs12086634 gene polymorphisms may contribute to AV and STs pathogenesis, that may be mediated through enhancing the enzymatic activity (increasing cortisol levels). AV and STs are associated with obesity and atherogenic lipid profile. Diagnosis of AV and STs may play a role in early detection of the MeTS.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are steroid hormones, which are essential for life. They are secreted by the adrenal cortex under the control of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Glucocorticoids are essential for the normal function of most organ systems and, in both, excess and deficiency can lead to significant adverse consequences. Adrenal insufficiency (AI) is a rare, life-threatening disorder characterized by insufficient production of corticosteroid hormones. Primary AI is defined by the inability of the adrenal cortex to produce sufficient amounts of glucocorticoids and/or mineralocorticoids despite normal or increased adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH). Secondary AI is adrenal hypofunction due to insufficient amount of ACTH produced by the pituitary gland. Conventional treatment of both primary and secondary adrenal insufficiencies involves lifelong glucocorticoid replacement therapy. The role of cortisol deficiency and the impact of hydrocortisone replacement on morbidity and mortality in this patient group are under increasing scrutiny. Established glucocorticoid replacement regimens do not completely mirror endogenous hormonal production, and their monitoring to ensure optimum therapy is hampered by the lack of reliable biomarkers of hormone sufficiency. A further confounding issue is the tissue-specific regulation of glucocorticoid through the two isozymes of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11β-HSD) with research focusing on the role of this prereceptor regulation in the development of adverse metabolic features in patients. This review defines the factors influencing glucocorticoid action in patients with adrenal insufficiency receiving glucocorticoid therapy.

Abstract
Genes can influence lipid profile and anthropometric variables related to obesity. The present study aimed to verify if variants of the APOE, APOB, ADIPOQ, HSD11β1, and PLIN4 genes are associated with lipid levels or anthropometric variables in a sample comprised of 393 Euro-Brazilian children and adolescents. DNA was genotyped by TaqMan allelic discrimination assay. The ε4 and ε2 alleles of the APOE gene were associated respectively with lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels (p=0.015 and p=0.012, respectively), while the ε3 allele was associated with higher abdominal circumference (p=0.0416) and excess weight (p=0.0001). The G allele (rs846910) of the HSD11β1 gene was also associated with excess weight (p=0.039). No other association was found. Our results indicate that the ε4 and ε2 alleles could contribute to lower HDL-C and LDL-C levels, respectively, furthermore, the ε3 allele and the G allele (rs846910) of HSD11β1 gene may be risk factors for excess of weight.These findings are very important because we observed that some genetic variants influence the lipid profile and anthropometric variables early in life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 (11β-HSD1) is an NADP or NADPH-dependent enzyme that generates cortisol from cortisone for a local glucocorticoid action. Functional polymorphisms within 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 (HSD11B1) gene have shown an association with various factors, including insulin resistance (IR) and hypertension. In our study, we have assessed the association of HSD11B1 (rs12086634 and rs846910) gene polymorphisms with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic syndrome (metS). METHODS In the present study, 616 subjects were enrolled. DNA from T2D subjects (n=207), metS subjects (n=101), and their age and sex matched control subjects were analyzed. Genotyping of HSD11B1 rs12086634 and rs846910 single nucleotide polymorphisms was performed using tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (T-ARMS-PCR). An odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were calculated to determine the association of HSD11B1 gene polymorphisms with T2D and metS. RESULTS The association analysis indicated that HSD11B1 rs12086634 TG contributed to an increased risk of both T2D (OR=1.91; 95% CI-1.33-2.76, P=0.0005) and metS (OR=2.37; 95% CI-1.39-4.05, P=0.0015), but HSD11B1 rs846910 AG contributed to an increased risk of T2D (OR=1.62; 95% CI-1.02-2.57, P=0.03) only. There was a statistically significant difference in systolic blood pressure between the control group with HSD11B1 rs12086634 TG genotype (128.96±13.19mmHg) and the control group with HSD11B1 rs12086634 TT genotype (123.27±10.84mmHg). CONCLUSIONS The results of our study indicated that the HSD11B1 rs12086634 is associated with both T2D and metS, but HSD11B1 rs846910 is associated with only T2D in South Indian population.

Abstract
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) activity and polymorphisms in its encoding gene had
previously been associated with metabolic traits of obesity. This study investigated
the association of three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the
BCHE gene: -116G > A (rs1126680), 1615GA (rs1803274), 1914A
< G (rs3495), with obesity and lipid metabolism markers, body mass index (BMI),
total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density
lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglyceride (TG) levels, and BChE enzymatic
activity in obese (BMI≥30/n = 226) and non-obese women (BMI < 25/n = 81).
BCHE SNPs genotyping was obtained by TaqMan allelic
discrimination assay and by RFLP-PCR. Plasmatic BChE activity was measured using
propionylthiocholine as substrate. Similar allele frequencies were found in obese and
non-obese women for the three studied SNPs (p > 0.05). The dominant and recessive
models were tested, and different effects were found. The -116A allele showed a
dominant effect in BChE activity reduction in both non-obese and obese women (p =
0.045 and p < 0.001, respectively). The 1914A > G and 1615GA SNPs influenced
the TG levels only in obese women. The 1914G and the 1615A alleles were associated
with decreased plasma levels of TG. Thus, our results suggest that the obesity
condition, characterized by loss of energy homeostasis, is modulated by BCHE
polymorphisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Glucocorticoid substitution is essential in patients with chronic primary adrenocortical insufficiency (Addison's disease) and both over-treatment and inadequate dosage have deleterious effects. Individual sensitivity to glucocorticoids is partly genetically determined. CONTEXT To test the hypothesis whether the well-characterized SNPs of the GR and HSD11B1 genes may modulate the individual sensitivity to exogenous glucocorticoids and may influence clinical and/or laboratory parameters and the glucocorticoid substitution dosage in patients with Addison's disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS 68 patients with primary adrenocortical insufficiency were involved. Clinical and laboratory data, as well as the dosage of the hormone replacement therapy were collected. Peripheral blood DNA was isolated, and the GR and HSD11B1 SNPs were examined using allele-specific PCR or Taqman assay on Real Time PCR. RESULTS The allele frequency of the GR N363S polymorphism was higher in patients compared to the control group and the disease appeared significantly earlier in patients harbouring the GR A3669G compared to noncarriers. These patients had higher ACTH level measured at the time of diagnosis. Homozygous BclI carriers had higher body mass index (BMI) and lower total hydrocortisone equivalent supplementation dose needed than heterozygous or noncarriers. The BMI and weight gain during hormone replacement therapy were also higher in carriers of the HSD11B1 rs4844880 treated with glucocorticoids other than dexamethasone. CONCLUSION The BclI polymorphism of the GR gene and the rs4844880 of the HSD11B1 gene may contribute to weight gain and may affect the individual need of glucocorticoid substitution dose in these patients.

Abstract
The HSD11B1 gene is highly expressed in abdominal adipose tissue, and the enzyme it encodes catalyzes the interconversion of inactive cortisone to hormonally active cortisol. Genetic abnormalities of HSD11B1 have been associated with the development of abnormal glucose metabolism and body fat distribution. To systematically review studies evaluating the association of HSD11B1 gene expression in abdominal adipose tissue and HSD11B1 polymorphisms with obesity, the metabolic syndrome (MetS), and type 2 diabetes (T2DM), we conducted a search in MEDLINE, SCOPUS, and Cochrane Library databases in April 2015. The inclusion criteria were observational studies (cross-sectional, cohort, or case-control), conducted in adults, which analyzed the relationship of HSD11B1 polymorphisms and/or HSD11B1 expression in abdominal adipose tissue with obesity, MetS, or T2DM. Of 802 studies retrieved, 32 met the inclusion criteria (23 gene expression and 9 polymorphism studies). Twenty one studies analyzed the relationship between abdominal subcutaneous and/or visceral HSD11B1 expression with central and/or generalized obesity. Most studies reported that abdominal adipose HSD11B1 expression increased with increasing body mass index (15 studies) and abnormalities of glucose metabolism (7 studies), and varied with the presence of MetS (3 studies). Nine studies analyzed the association of 26 different HSD11B1 polymorphic variants with obesity, MetS, and T2DM. Only an Indian study found an association between a polymorphic variant at the HSD11B1 gene with MetS whereas in Pima Indians another polymorphic variant was found to be associated with T2DM. While the literature suggests that HSD11B1 is hyperexpressed in abdominal adipose tissue in subjects with obesity and abnormal glucose metabolism, this seems to be not true for HSD11B1 gene expression and MetS. Although an association of polymorphic variants of HSD11B1 with MetS in Indians and in the T2DM population of Pima Indians were found, most studies did not find a relationship between genetic polymorphic variants of HSD11B1 and obesity, MetS, and T2DM. Their reported conflicting and inconclusive results, suggesting that polymorphic variants of HSD11B1 may have only a small role in the development of metabolic abnormalities of susceptible populations in the development of MetS and T2DM.
