Abstract
Deltamethrin (DM) is a widely used insecticide that has demonstrated developmental toxicity in the early life stages of fish. To better characterize the underlying mechanisms, embryos from Tg(cmlc2:RFP), Tg(apo14:GFP), and Tg(mpx:GFP) transgenic strains of zebrafish were exposed to nominal DM concentrations of 0.1, 1, 10, 25, and 50 μg/L until 120 h post-fertilization (hpf). Heart size increased 56.7%, and liver size was reduced by 17.1% in zebrafish exposed to 22.7 and 24.2 μg/L DM, respectively. RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analyses predicted that key biological processes affected by DM exposure were related to inflammatory responses. Expression of IL-1 protein was increased by 69.0% in the 24.4 μg/L DM treatment, and aggregation of neutrophils in cardiac and hepatic histologic sections was also observed. Coexposure to resatorvid, an anti-inflammatory agent, mitigated inflammatory responses and cardiac toxicity induced by DM and also restored liver biomass. Our data indicated a complex proinflammatory mechanism underlying DM-induced cardiotoxicity and hepatotoxicity which may be important for key events of adverse outcomes and associated risks of DM to early life stages of fish.

Li Y, Guan Z, Hu S, Huang Z, He D, Cheng X, Song T, Mo C, Xiao M, Huang Y, Wei Y, Zhou Y, Zhang X, Liao M. Glutamine ameliorates Bungarus multicinctus venom-induced lung and heart injury through HSP70: NF-κB p65 and P53/PUMA signaling pathways involved. J Venom Anim Toxins Incl Trop Dis 2023; 29:e20220080. [PMID: 37441002 PMCID: PMC10334810 DOI: 10.1590/1678-9199-jvatitd-2022-0080] [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: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Bungarus multicinctus is one of the most dangerous venomous snakes prone to cardiopulmonary damage with extremely high mortality. In our previous work, we found that glutamine (Gln) and glutamine synthetase (GS) in pig serum were significantly reduced after Bungarus multicinctus bite. In the present study, to explore whether there is a link between the pathogenesis of cardiopulmonary injury and Gln metabolic changes induced by Bungarus multicinctus venom. We investigated the effect of Gln supplementation on the lung and heart function after snakebite. Methods We supplemented different concentrations of Gln to mice that were envenomated by Bungarus multicinctus to observe the biological behavior, survival rate, hematological and pathological changes. Gln was supplemented immediately or one hour after the venom injection, and then changes in Gln metabolism were analyzed. Subsequently, to further explore the protective mechanism of glutamine on tissue damage, we measured the expression of heat-shock protein70 (HSP70), NF-κB P65, P53/PUMA by western blotting and real-time polymerase in the lung and heart. Results Gln supplementation delayed the envenoming symptoms, reduced mortality, and alleviated the histopathological changes in the heart and lung of mice bitten by Bungarus multicinctus. Additionally, Gln increased the activity of glutamine synthetase (GS), glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and glutaminase (GLS) in serum. It also balanced the transporter SLC7A11 expression in heart and lung tissues. Bungarus multicinctus venom induced the NF-κB nuclear translocation in the lung, while the HO-1 expression was suppressed. At the same time, venom activated the P53/PUMA signaling pathway and the BAX expression in the heart. Gln treatment reversed the above phenomenon and increased HSP70 expression. Conclusion Gln alleviated the glutamine metabolism disorder and cardiopulmonary damage caused by Bungarus multicinctus venom. It may protect lungs and heart against venom by promoting the expression of HSP70, inhibiting the activation of NF-κB and P53/PUMA, thereby delaying the process of snake venom and reducing mortality. The present results indicate that Gln could be a potential treatment for Bungarus multicinctus bite.

Abstract
Pyrethroids (PY) are synthetic pesticides used in many applications ranging from large-scale agriculture to household maintenance. Their classical mechanisms of action are associated with binding to the sodium channel of insect neurons, disrupting its inactivation, ensuring their use as insecticides. However, PY can also lead to toxicity in vertebrates, including humans. In most toxicological studies, the impact of PY on heart function is neglected. Acute exposure to a high dose of PY causes enhancement of the late sodium current (INaL), which impairs the action potential waveform and can cause severe cardiac arrhythmias. Moreover, long-term, low-dose exposure to PY displays oxidative stress in the heart, which could induce tissue remodeling and impairment. Isolated and preliminary evidence supports that, for acute exposure to PY, an antiarrhythmic therapy with ranolazine (an INaL blocker), can be a promising therapeutic approach. Besides, heart tissue remodeling associated with low doses and long-term exposure to PY seems to benefit from antioxidant therapy. Despite significant leaps in understanding the mechanical details of PY intoxication, currently, few studies are focusing on the heart. In this review, we present what is known and what are the gaps in the field of cardiotoxicity induced by PY.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Covid-19 is considered a primary respiratory disease-causing viral pneumonia and, in severe cases, leads to acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In addition, though, extra-pulmonary manifestations of Covid-19 have been shown. Furthermore, severe acute respiratory distress syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection may coexist with several malignancies, including multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS This critical literature review aimed to find the potential association between SARS-CoV-2 infection and MM in Covid-19 patients with underlying MM. Narrative literature and databases search revealed that ARDS is developed in both MM and Covid-19 due to hypercalcemia and proteasome dysfunction. RESULTS Notably, the expression of angiogenic factors and glutamine deficiency could link Covid-19 severity and MM in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular complications. MM and Covid-19 share thrombosis as a typical complication; unlike thrombosis in Covid-19, which reflects disease severity, thrombosis does not reflect disease severity in MM. In both conditions, thromboprophylaxis is essential to prevent pulmonary thrombosis and other thromboembolic disorders. Moreover, Covid-19 may exacerbate the development of acute kidney injury and neurological complications in MM patients. CONCLUSION These findings highlighted that MM patients might be a risk group for Covid-19 severity due to underlying immunosuppression and most of those patients need specific management in the Covid-19 era.

Glutamine prevents upregulation of NF-kB signaling and caspase 3 activation in ischaemia/reperfusion-induced testicular damage: An animal model. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 150:113056.

Abstract
AIM Testicular ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a major consequence of testicular torsion with possible attendant risk of male infertility. Glutamine, on the other hand, is a known antioxidant with anti-inflammatory potential. The present study evaluated whether or not glutamine would improve I/R-induced testicular injury in torsion/detorsion (T/D). The possible associated mechanisms were also investigated. METHODS Wistar rats were randomly allotted into four groups (n = 10); sham-operated, glutamine-treated, T/D, and T/D + glutamine. Testicular torsion was induced and reperfusion established after two and a half hour under ketamine/xylazine anaethesia. Glutamine was administered one hour before reperfusion and continued daily for 3 days. At the end of the study, animals were euthanized, blood samples obtained, epididymal sperm suspension collected, and the testes harvested for biochemical and histopathological assays using established methods. RESULTS Glutamine prevented T/D-driven I/R-induced reduced sperm quality, impaired testicular histoarchitecture, and suppressed circulating testosterone. Also, glutamine abated I/R-induced oxidative stress (evidenced by reduced hydrogen peroxide and MDA generation and enhanced concentrations and activities of antioxidants), inflammation (evidenced by suppression of TNF-α and IL-1β), and apoptosis (evidenced by reduced DNA fragmentation) by down-regulating NF-kB and caspase 3 activity. CONCLUSION For the first time, this study demonstrated that glutamine administration improved testicular I/R injury in T/D rat model by maintaining testicular redox balance, and testicular integrity and function via inhibition of I/R-induced upregulation of NF-kB signaling and caspase 3 activation.

Abstract
Schisandrin B has been proved to possess anti-inflammatory and anti-endoplasmic effects, could improve cardiac function, inhibit apoptosis, and reduce inflammation after ischemic injury. However, the detailed metabolic mechanism and potential pathways of Schisandrin B effects on myocardial injury are unclear. Metabolomics could yield in-depth mechanistic insights and explore the potential therapeutic effect of natural products. In this study, the preparation of doxorubicin-induced myocardial injury rat model for evaluation of Schisandrin B on viral myocarditis sequelae related pathological changes and its mechanism. The metabolite profiling of myocardial injury rats was performed through ultra-high performance liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometry combined with pattern recognition approaches and pathway analysis. A total of 15 metabolites (nine in positive ion mode and six in negative ion mode) were considered as potential biomarkers of myocardial injury, and these metabolites may correlate with the regulation of Schisandrin B treatment. A total of six metabolic pathways are closely related to Schisandrin B treatment, including glycerophospholipid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, purine metabolism, etc. This study revealed the potential biomarkers and metabolic network pathways of myocardial injury, and illuminated the protective mechanism of Schisandrin B on myocardial injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endocrine disruptor such as cadmium has been widely reported to cause testicular toxicity, which contributes to recent decline in male fertility worldwide. Glutamine, the most abundant amino acid in the body has been demonstrated to exert protective effects in cellular toxicity. However, its role in testicular toxicity is unknown. The present study is therefore aimed at investigating the effects of glutamine supplementation on cadmium-induced testicular toxicity, and the possible involvement of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity. MATERIALS AND METHOD Male Wistar rats weighing 160-190 g were allotted into 4 groups (n = 5/group): The groups received vehicle (distilled water; p.o.), glutamine (1gkg-1; p.o.), cadmium chloride (5mgkg-1p.o.) and Cadmium chloride plus glutamine respectively, daily for 30 days. Biochemical and histological analyses were performed with appropriate method. RESULTS Administration of cadmium significantly decreased body weight, sperm count, motility and viability, as well as altered sperm morphology and progressivity. Cadmium also caused atrophy of the seminiferous tubule in addition to disrupted testicular architecture, lumen, Sertoli cells and spermatogonia. Similarly, serum and testicular aspartate transaminase, and malondialdehyde significantly increased, and G6PD, glutathione, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate and nitric oxide significantly decreased with corresponding decrease in follicle stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone and testosterone in cadmium-treated animals compared with control groups. However, supplementation with glutamine attenuated these alterations. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that cadmium induces testicular dysfunction that is attributable to defective G6PD and accompanied by increased lipid peroxidation and impaired NO-dependent endothelial function. Interestingly, glutamine supplementation ameliorates cadmium-induced testicular dysfunction through enhancement of G6PD activity.

Abstract
Gestational fructose exposure has detrimental health consequences on both the maternal and fetus or offspring in the early or later life, contributing to epidemic rise in cardiometabolic syndrome including cardiac events. l-Glutamine has been shown to mitigate cardiac metabolic stress. However, the effect of l-glutamine on cardiac hypertrophy induced by gestational fructose exposure is not known. We therefore hypothesized that l-glutamine would prevent gestational fructose-induced cardiac hypertrophy, possibly by suppression of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase-4 (PDK-4). Pregnant Wistar rats were allotted into the control, l-glutamine, gestational fructose exposure, and gestational fructose exposure plus l-glutamine groups (6 rats in each group). The groups received distilled water (vehicle, per os), 1 g/kg body weight l-glutamine (per os), 10% fructose (w/v) and 10% fructose (w/v) plus 1 g/kg l-glutamine (per os), respectively, daily for 19 days. Data from this study showed that gestational fructose-enriched drink caused cardiac hypertrophy with correspondent body weight gain, glucose dysregulation, increased cardiac PDK-4, triglyceride, glycogen, lactate, and uric acid production. On the other hand, defective glutathione-dependent antioxidant barrier was also observed in pregnant rats taking fructose-enriched drink. However, the gestational fructose-induced cardiac hypertrophy and its correlates were attenuated by l-glutamine. The present results demonstrate that gestational fructose-enriched drink induces cardiac hypertrophy that is accompanied by increased PDK-4. The findings also suggest that the inhibitory effect of l-glutamine on PDK-4 prevents the development of cardiac hypertrophy, thereby implying that PDK-4 may be a potential novel therapeutic intervention for cardiac hypertrophy especially in pregnancy.

Abstract
Deltamethrin is widely used worldwide due to its valuable insecticidal activity against pests and parasites. Increasing evidence has shown that deltamethrin causes varying degrees of toxicity. Moreover, oxidative stress and metabolism are highly correlated with toxicity. For the first time, this review systematically summarizes the deltamethrin toxicity mechanism from the perspective of oxidative stress, including deltamethrin-mediated oxidative damage, antioxidant status, oxidative signaling pathways and modulatory effects of antagonists, synergists and placebos on oxidative stress. Further, deltamethrin metabolism, including metabolites, metabolic enzymes and pathways and deltamethrin metabolite toxicity are discussed. This review will shed new light on deltamethrin toxicity mechanisms and provide effective strategies to ensure pest control and prevention of human and animal poisoning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deltamethrin (DLM) is a broad-spectrum synthetic dibromo-pyrethroid pesticide that is widely used for agricultural and veterinary purposes. However, human exposure to the pesticide leads to neurotoxicity. Glutamine is one of the principal, free intracellular amino acids and may also be an antioxidant. This study was undertaken in order to examine the neuroprotective and antioxidant potential of l-glutamine against DLM toxicity in female Wistar albino rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS The rats were divided into the following groups (n=10): Group I: control (distilled water; 10 mL/kg, po one dose), Group II: l-glutamine (1.5 g/kg, po one dose), Group III: DLM (35 mg/kg, po one dose), and Group IV: DLM (35 mg/kg, po one dose) and l-glutamine (1.5 g/kg, po one dose after 4 hours). Total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS), tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 levels and apoptosis were evaluated in brain tissue. RESULTS DLM-treated animals had a significant increase in brain biochemical parameters, as well as TOS and TAS. Furthermore, the histopathological examination showed neuronal cell degeneration in the cerebral tissue. l-Glutamine treatment decreased the elevated brain levels of TOS and neuronal cell degeneration. There was no difference in tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels between the groups. CONCLUSION l-Glutamine may reduce the toxic effects of DLM in the cerebral tissue through antioxidant properties.
