[PMID: 38076632 PMCID: PMC10710250 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s426685] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The previous phytochemical analyses of Garcinia hanburyi revealed that the main structural characteristic associated with its biological activity is the caged polyprenylated xanthones with a unique 4-oxatricyclo [4.3.1.03,7] dec-2-one scaffold, which contains a highly substituted tetrahydrofuran ring with three quaternary carbons. Based on the progress in research of the chemical constituents, pharmacological effects and modification methods of the caged polyprenylated xanthones, this paper presents a preliminary predictive analysis of their drug-like properties based on the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADME/T) properties. It was found out that these compounds have very similar pharmacokinetic properties because they possess the same caged xanthone structure, the 9,10-double bond in a,b-unsaturated ketones are critical for the antitumor activity. The author believes that there is an urgent need to seek new breakthroughs in the study of these caged polyprenylated xanthones. Thus, the research on the route of administration, therapeutic effect, structural modification and development of such active ingredients is of great interest. It is hoped that this paper will provide ideas for researchers to develop and utilize the active ingredients derived from natural products.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal chemistry represents plenty of highly efficient and biocompatible reactions that proceed selectively and rapidly in biological situations without unexpected side reactions towards miscellaneous endogenous functional groups. Arise from the strict demands of physiological reactions, bioorthogonal chemical reactions are natively selective transformations that are rarely found in biological environments. Bioorthogonal chemistry has long been applied to tracking and real-time imaging of biomolecules in their physiological environments. Thereinto, tetrazine bioorthogonal reactions are particularly important and have increasing applications in these fields owing to their unique properties of easily controlled fluorescence or radiation off-on mechanism, which greatly facilitate the tracking of real signals without been disturbed by background. In this mini review, tetrazine bioorthogonal chemistry for in vivo imaging applications will be attentively appraised to raise some guidelines for prior tetrazine bioorthogonal chemical studies.

[PMID: 36386899 PMCID: PMC9643866 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.1008893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Polyphenols are one of the largest plant-derived natural product and they play an important role in plants' defense as well as in human health and disease. A number of them are pleiotropic molecules and have been shown to regulate signaling pathways, immune response and cell growth and proliferation which all play a role in cancer development. Hematological malignancies on the other hand, are cancers of the blood. While current therapies are efficacious, they are usually expensive and with unwanted side effects. Thus, the search for newer less toxic agents. Polyphenols have been reported to possess antineoplastic properties which include cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis via multiple mechanisms. They also have immunomodulatory activities where they enhance T cell activation and suppress regulatory T cells. They carry out these actions through such pathways as PI3K/Akt/mTOR and the kynurenine. They can also reverse cancer resistance to chemotherapy agents. In this review, i look at some of the molecular mechanism of action of polyphenols and their potential roles as therapeutic agents in hematological malignancies. Here i discuss their anti-proliferative and anti-neoplastic activities especially their abilities modulate signaling pathways as well as immune response in hematological malignancies. I also looked at clinical studies done mainly in the last 10-15 years on various polyphenol combination and how they enhance synergism. I recommend that further preclinical and clinical studies be carried out to ensure safety and efficacy before polyphenol therapies be officially moved to the clinics.

Therapeutic Effect of Ultrasound Combined With Porous Lipid Clioquinol/PLGA Microbubbles on Ferroptosis in HL-1 Cardiac Cell Induced by Isoproterenol Attack. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:918292. [PMID: 35935822 PMCID: PMC9354950 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.918292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
In recent years, studies have shown a close relationship between cardiomyocyte death and ferroptosis. Clioquinol (CQ) can inhibit ferroptosis. Porous lipid-poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microbubbles (MBs) were prepared by double emulsification (W1/O/W2) using 1,2-dioctadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phophocholine and PLGA as raw materials. Porous lipid-PLGA MBs were used as carriers to prepare CQ/PLGA MBs containing CQ. CQ/PLGA had the advantages of high drug loading, good biocompatibility, and sustained release. Our results showed that CQ/PLGA improved the effect of CQ and reduced its cytotoxicity. Under low-frequency ultrasound with certain parameters, CQ/PLGA showed steady-state cavitation, which increased the membrane permeability of mouse cardiomyocyte HL-1 to a certain extent and further prevented the process of ferroptosis in mouse cardiomyocyte HL-1.

Abstract
Tumor immunotherapy has shown strong therapeutic potential for stimulating or reconstructing the immune system to control and kill tumor cells. It is a promising and effective anti-cancer treatment besides surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Presently, some immunotherapy methods have been approved for clinical application, and numerous others have demonstrated promising in vitro results and have entered clinical trial stages. Although immunotherapy has exhibited encouraging results in various cancer types, however, a large proportion of patients are limited from these benefits due to specific characteristics of the tumor microenvironment such as hypoxia, tumor vascular malformation and immune escape, and current limitations of immunotherapy such as off-target toxicity, insufficient drug penetration and accumulation and immune cell dysfunction. Ultrasound-target microbubble destruction (UTMD) treatment can help reduce immunotherapy-related adverse events. Using the ultrasonic cavitation effect of microstreaming, microjets and free radicals, UTMD can cause a series of changes in vascular endothelial cells, such as enhancing endothelial cells’ permeability, increasing intracellular calcium levels, regulating gene expression, and stimulating nitric oxide synthase activities. These effects have been shown to promote drug penetration, enhance blood perfusion, increase drug delivery and induce tumor cell death. UTMD, in combination with immunotherapy, has been used to treat melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, bladder cancer, and ovarian cancer. In this review, we summarized the effects of UTMD on tumor angiogenesis and immune microenvironment, and discussed the application and progress of UTMD in tumor immunotherapy.

Artificial Intelligence Algorithm-Based Intraoperative Magnetic Resonance Navigation for Glioma Resection. CONTRAST MEDIA & MOLECULAR IMAGING 2022; 2022:4147970. [PMID: 35317129 PMCID: PMC8916889 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4147970] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2021] [Revised: 01/28/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
The study aimed to analyze the application value of artificial intelligence algorithm-based intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) in neurosurgical glioma resection. 108 patients with glioma in a hospital were selected and divided into the experimental group (intraoperative magnetic resonance assisted glioma resection) and the control group (conventional surgical experience resection), with 54 patients in each group. After the resection, the tumor resection rate, NIHSS (National Institute of Health Stroke Scale) score, Karnofsky score, and postoperative intracranial infection were calculated in the two groups. The results revealed that the average tumor resection rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in Karnofsky score before and after the operation in the experimental group (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in NIHSS score between the experimental group and the control group after resection (P > 0.05). The number of patients with postoperative neurological deficits in the experimental group was smaller than that in the control group. In addition, there was no significant difference in infection rates between the two groups after glioma resection (P > 0.05). In summary, intraoperative magnetic resonance navigation on the basis of a segmentation dictionary learning algorithm has great clinical value in neurosurgical glioma resection. It can maximize the removal of tumors and ensure the integrity of neurological function while avoiding an increased risk of postoperative infection, which is of great significance for the treatment of glioma.
