Molecular insights to in vitro biocompatibility of endodontic Pulpotec with macrophages determined by oxidative stress and apoptosis. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 176:116921. [PMID: 38870628 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.116921] [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: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 06/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Pulp therapy has been emerged as a one of the efficient therapies in the field of endodontics. Among different types of new endodontic materials, pulpotec has been materialized as a recognized material for vital pulp therapy. However, its efficacy has been challenged due to lack of information about its cellular biocompatibility. This study evaluates the mechanistic biocompatibility of pulpotec cement with macrophage cells (RAW 264.7) at cellular and molecular level. The biocompatibility was evaluated using experimental and computational techniques like MTT assay, oxidative stress analysis and apoptosis analysis through flow cytometry and fluorescent microscopy. The results showed concentration-dependent cytotoxicity of pulpotec cement extract to RAW 264.7 cells with an LC 50 of X/10-X/20. The computational analysis depicted the molecular interaction of pulpotec cement extract components with metabolic proteins like Sod1 and p53. The study revealed the effects of Pulpotec cement's extract, showing a concentration-dependent induction of oxidative stress and apoptosis. These effects were due to influential structural and functional abnormalities in the Sod1 and p53 proteins, caused by their molecular interaction with internalized components of Pulpotec cement. The study provided a detailed view on the utility of Pulpotec in endodontic applications, highlighting its biomedical aspects.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a type of dementia that affects a vast number of people around the world, causing a great deal of misery and death. Evidence reveals a relationship between the presence of soluble Aβ peptide aggregates and the severity of dementia in Alzheimer's patients. The BBB (Blood Brain Barrier) is a key problem in Alzheimer's disease because it prevents therapeutics from reaching the desired places. To address the issue, lipid nanosystems have been employed to deliver therapeutic chemicals for anti-AD therapy in a precise and targeted manner. The applicability and clinical significance of lipid nanosystems to deliver therapeutic chemicals (Galantamine, Nicotinamide, Quercetin, Resveratrol, Curcumin, HUPA, Rapamycin, and Ibuprofen) for anti-AD therapy will be discussed in this review. Furthermore, the clinical implications of the aforementioned therapeutic compounds for anti-AD treatment have been examined. Thus, this review will pave the way for researchers to fashion therodiagnostics approaches based on nanomedicine to overcome the problems of delivering therapeutic molecules across the blood brain barrier (BBB).

Independent antioxidant and anticancer properties of a novel thermostable lysozyme isolated from Bacillus paralicheniformis: in silico and in vitro studies. 3 Biotech 2023; 13:240.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated the independent anticancer properties of a novel heat-stable lysozyme derived from the thermophilic bacterium Bacillus paralicheniformis (BplzC) to identify potential alternative therapies to address the suboptimal outcomes of current cancer treatments. Using the String 10.5 database, an in-silico protein-protein interaction study predicted that BplzC was a strong functional partner of cytochrome c, indicating a potential role in cancer cell apoptosis. Further, the HDOCK server predicted that BplzC strongly bound to cell death receptors, such as cytokines FAS receptor, leading to activation of cytochrome c and subsequent apoptosis in the cancer cell line. In vitro assays demonstrated uniform apoptotic activity of BplzC against various cancer cell lines, while showing no apoptotic activity against normal non-cancer cell lines. And showing no apoptotic activity against normal non-cancer cell lines suggested a very specific mode of action and without any adverse side effects. Additionally, BplzC exhibited ROS scavenging activity and reducing ability comparable to ascorbic acid, and significantly accelerated HEK293 cell migration. Our findings suggest that BplzC has specific cytotoxic effects on cancer cells and may be a valuable natural source of antioxidants for future use in the nutritional and pharmaceutical sectors.

Huang W, Zhang J, Jin W, Yang J, Yu G, Shi H, Shi K. Piperine alleviates acute pancreatitis: A possible role for FAM134B and CCPG1 dependent ER-phagy. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 105:154361. [PMID: 35963197 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2022.154361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2022] [Revised: 07/23/2022] [Accepted: 07/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute pancreatitis was a common acute abdominal disease characterized by pancreatic acinar cell death and inflammation. Endoplasmic reticulum autophagy (ER-phagy) coud maintain cell homeostasis by degrading redundant and disordered endoplasmic reticulum and FAM134B and CCPG1 was main ER-phagy receptors. As a natural alkaloid, piperin is found in black pepper and has anti-inflammatory properties, whose effect on ER-phagy in pancreatitis has not been studied. PURPOSE The objective of this study was to demonstrate the pivotal role of FAM134B and CCPG1 dependent ER-phagy for alleviating acute pancreatitis and explore the molecular mechanism of piperine in alleviating acute pancreatitis. METHOD In this study we investigated the role of ER-phagy in acute pancreatitis and whether piperine could alleviate pancreatitis through ER-phagy regulation. We first detected endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER-stress) and ER-phagy in different degrees of acute pancreatitis. Then we used ER-stress and autophagy regulators to explore the relationship between ER-stress and ER-phagy in acute pancreatitis and their regulation of cell death. Through using FAM134B-/- and CCPG1-/-, we investigated the mechanism of piperine in the treatment of acute pancreatitis. RESULTS In this study, we confirmed that with the progression of acute pancreatitis, the pancreatic endoplasmic reticulum stress increased continuously, but the ER-phagy increased first and then was inhibited. Meanwhile, in acute pancreatitis, ER-stress and ER-phagy interacted: endoplasmic reticulum stress can induce ER-phagy, but serious ER-stress would inhibit ER-phagy; and ER-phagy could alleviate ER-stress. Next, we found that piperine reduced ER-stress by enhancing FAM134B and CCPG1 dependent ER-phagy, thereby alleviating pancreatic injury. CONCLUSION Impaired ER-phagy was both a cause and a consequence of ER-stress in AP mice, which contributed to the transition from AP to SAP. Piperine targeting ER-phagy provided a new insight into the pharmacological mechanism of piperine in treating AP.

Abstract
The ecotoxicological effect of after-usage released TiO2 nanoparticles in aquatic resources has been a major concern owing to their production and utilization in different applications. Addressing the issue, this study investigates the detailed in vivo molecular toxicity of TiO2 nanoparticles with Paramecium caudatum. TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized at a lab scale using high energy ball milling technique; characterized for their physicochemical properties and investigated for their ecotoxicological impact on oxidative stress, steatosis, and apoptosis of cells through different biochemical analysis, flow cytometry, and fluorescent microscopy. TiO2 nanoparticles; TiO2 (N15); of size 36 ± 12 nm were synthesized with a zeta potential of - 20.2 ± 8.8 mV and bandgap of 4.6 ± 0.3 eV and exhibited a blue shift in UV-spectrum. Compared to the Bulk TiO2, the TiO2 (N15) exhibited higher cytotoxicity with a 24 h LC50 of 202.4 µg/ml with P. Caudatum. The mechanism was elucidated as the size and charge-dependent internalization of nanoparticles leading to abnormal physiological metabolism in oxidative stress, steatosis, and apoptosis because of their influential effect on the activity of metabolic proteins like SOD, GSH, MDA, and catalase. The study emphasized the controlled usage TiO2 nanoparticles in daily activity with a concern for ecological and biomedical aspects.

Abstract
Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) has become an integral component of disposed of plastic waste, organic pollutants, and remnants of combustible materials in the aquatic environment due to their persistent nature. The accumulation and integration of these polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have raised concern to human health and ecological safety. This study assessed the BaP-induced in vivo molecular toxicity with embryonic zebrafish inferred by oxidative stress and apoptosis. BaP was found to induce morphological and physiological abnormalities like delayed hatching (p < 0.05). Computational analysis demonstrated the high-affinity interaction of BaP with the zebrafish hatching enzyme (ZHE1) with Arg, Cys, Ala, Tyr, and Phe located at the active site revealing the influence of BaP on delayed hatching due to alteration of the enzyme structure. RT-PCR analysis revealed significant down-regulation of the skeletal genes Sox9a, SPP1/OPN, and Col1a1 (p < 0.05) genes. The cellular investigations unraveled that the toxicity of BaP extends to the skeletal regions of zebrafish (head, backbone, and tail) because of the elicited oxidative stress leading to apoptosis. The study extended the horizon of understanding of BaP toxicity at the molecular level which will enhance the indulgent and designing of techniques for better ecological sustainability.

Abstract
Recent advancement in nanotechnology seeks exploration of new techniques for improvement in the molecular, chemical, and biological properties of nanoparticles. In this study, carbon modification of octahedral-shaped magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) was done using two-step chemical processes with sucrose as a carbon source for improvement in their electrochemical application and higher molecular biocompatibility. X-ray diffraction analysis and electron microscopy confirmed the alteration in single-phase octahedral morphology and carbon attachment in Fe3O4 structure. The magnetization saturation and BET surface area for Fe3O4, Fe3O4/C, and α-Fe2O3/C were measured as 90, 86, and 27 emu/g and 16, 56, and 89 m2/g with an average pore size less than 7 nm. Cyclic voltammogram and galvanostatic charge/discharge studies showed the highest specific capacitance of carbon-modified Fe3O4 and α-Fe2O3 as 213 F/g and 192 F/g. The in vivo biological effect of altered physicochemical properties of Fe3O4 and α-Fe2O3 was assessed at the cellular and molecular level with embryonic zebrafish. Mechanistic in vivo toxicity analysis showed a reduction in oxidative stress in carbon-modified α-Fe2O3 exposed zebrafish embryos compared to Fe3O4 due to despaired influential atomic interaction with sod1 protein along with significant less morphological abnormalities and apoptosis. The study provided insight into improving the characteristic of MNPs for electrochemical application and higher biological biocompatibility.

Abstract
The utility of calcium oxide nanoparticles in the biomedical and physical fields has instigated their biocompatible synthesis and production. Moreover, it is important to investigate their biocompatibility at the molecular level for biomedical and ecotoxicological concern. This study explores the green synthesis of calcium oxide nanoparticles (CaONP) using Crescentia cujete leaf extract. The synthesized CaONP were found to have a size of 62 ± 06 nm and a hydrodynamic diameter of 246 ± 12 nm, as determined by FE-SEM and dynamic light scattering (DLS). CaONP was stable in fish medium with a zeta potential of −23 ± 11 mV. The biocompatibility of the CaONP was investigated with adult zebrafish bearing an LC50 of 86.32 µg/mL. Cellular and molecular investigation revealed the mechanism of biocompatibility as a consequence of elicited reactive oxygen species leading to apoptosis, due to accumulation and internalization of CaONP in exposed zebrafish. The study provided detailed information about the mechanistic biocompatibility and a defined horizon of green synthesis of CaONP for biomedical and ecological purposes.
