Abstract
Helicobacter pylori infection affects over 50% of the world's population and leads to chronic inflammation and gastric disorders, being the main pathogen correlated to gastric cancer development. Increasing antibiotic resistance levels are a major global concern and alternative treatments are needed. Soybean peptides and other compounds might be an alternative in the treatment to avoid, eradicate and/or control symptoms of H. pylori infection. This study aimed to characterize a lunasin-enriched soybean extract (LSE) using proteomics tools and to evaluate its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties against H. pylori infection. By LC-MS/MS analysis, 124 proteins were identified, with 2S albumin (lunasin and large-chain subunits) being the fourth most abundant protein (8.9%). Lunasin consists of 44 amino acid residues and an intramolecular disulfide bond. LSE at a low dose (0.0625 mg/mL) reduced ROS production in both H. pylori-infected and non-infected AGS gastric cells. This led to a significant reduction of 6.71% in the levels of pro-inflammatory interleukin (IL)-8. LSE also showed antibacterial activity against H. pylori, which can be attributed to other soybean proteins and phenolic compounds. Our findings suggest that LSE might be a promising alternative in the management of H. pylori infection and its associated symptoms.

Abstract
The prevalence of drug-resistant bacteria presents a significant challenge to the antibiotic treatment of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), while traditional antimicrobial agents often suffer from shortcomings such as poor gastric retention, inadequate alleviation of inflammation, and significant adverse effects on the gut microbiota. Here, a selenized chitosan (CS-Se) modified bismuth-based metal-organic framework (Bi-MOF@CS-Se) nanodrug is reported that can target mucin through the charge interaction of the outer CS-Se layer to achieve mucosal adhesion and gastric retention. Additionally, the Bi-MOF@CS-Se can respond to gastric acid and pepsin degradation, and the exposed Bi-MOF exhibits excellent antibacterial properties against standard H. pylori as well as clinical antibiotic-resistant strains. Remarkably, the Bi-MOF@CS-Se effectively alleviates inflammation and excessive oxidative stress by regulating the expression of inflammatory factors and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby exerting therapeutic effects against H. pylori infection. Importantly, this Bi-MOF@CS-Se nanodrug does not affect the homeostasis of gut microbiota, providing a promising strategy for efficient and safe treatment of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
Herbal medicine has an important part in promoting and maintaining human health. One of them was grape seed extract (GSE). Various potentials of GSE in human health have been explored, and its potential for maintaining bone health is promising. Some initial research has provided evidence that the GSE was able to affect bone remodeling (bone resorption and bone formation). This scoping review analyzed and discussed all the reports on the effect of GSE on bone healing and bone remodeling in animals in the alveolar bone, jaw bone, and skeletal bone. The further purpose is to give an opportunity to research and development of supplementation of GSE for humans.The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines were used to compose this scoping review through database on Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, Embase, and manual search until December 2022. The inclusion criteria were a study that analyzed the effect of supplementation GSE on all bones.All included study was in vivo study with supplementation of GSE. The supplementation of GSE affects the alveolar bone, jaw bones, and skeletal bone by promoting bone formation and inhibiting bone resorption by suppressing inflammation, apoptosis pathways, and osteoclastogenesis. It not only supports bone remodeling in bone inflammation, osteonecrosis, osteoporosis, and arthritis but also the GSE increases bone health by increasing the density and mineral deposition in trabecula and cortical bone.The supplementation of GSE supports bone remodeling by interfering with the inflammation process and bone formation not only by preventing bone resorption but also by maintaining bone density.

Abstract
Isothiocyanates may have antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori, but there are different variables related to Brassicaceae-derived samples that could affect their efficacy. This work studied the influence of source variety, concentration, gastric digestion, and encapsulation of samples on their bioactive response against Helicobacter pylori. The antibacterial activity of raw sprouts (red cabbage and red radish) showed the highest antibacterial effect, which was consistent with a higher amount of isothiocyanates. It decreased with gastric digestion, regardless of sample encapsulation. By contrast, adult red radish leaves became antibacterial after gastric digestion. Antioxidant activity on H. pylori-infected gastric cells was similar in all samples and followed an equivalent pattern with the changes in isothiocyanates. Raw samples decreased intracellular reactive oxygen species production, but they lost this capacity after gastric digestion, regardless whether the compounds were free or encapsulated. Red cabbage sprouts, red radish sprouts, and red radish roots produced a decrease in nitric oxide production. It was consistent with a modulation of the inflammatory response and was associated to isothiocyanates concentration. Encapsulated sprout samples retained part of their anti-inflammatory activity after gastric digestion. Adult raw red radish leaves were not active, but after digestion, they became anti-inflammatory. The results obtained in this study have shown that several variables could have a significant impact on the bioactive properties of Brassicaceae-derived samples against H. pylori, providing a starting point for the design and standardization of samples with specific bioactivities (antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory) potentially useful for the treatment of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
Metastases contribute to the low survival rate of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Targeting lipid metabolism for anticancer therapies is attractive. Accumulative evidence shows that stearoyl-CoA desaturases1 (SCD1), a key enzyme in lipid metabolism, enables tumor metastasis and the underlying mechanism remains unknown. In this study, immunohistochemical staining of 96 clinical specimens showed that the expression of SCD1 was increased in tumor tissues (p < 0.001). SCD1 knockdown reduced the migration and invasion of HCC827 and PC9 cells in transwell and wound healing assays. Aromatase (CYP19A1) knockdown eliminated cell migration and invasion caused by SCD1 overexpression. Western blotting assays demonstrated that CYP19A1, along with β-catenin protein levels, was reduced in SCD1 knocked-down cells, and estrogen concentration was reduced (p < 0.05) in cell culture medium measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. SCD1 overexpression preserving β-catenin protein stability was evaluated by coimmunoprecipitation and Western blotting. The SCD1 inhibitor A939572, and a potential SCD1 inhibitor, grape seed extract (GSE), significantly inhibited cell migration and invasion by blocking SCD1 and its downstream β-catenin, CYP19A1 expression, and estrogen concentration. In vivo tumor formation assay and a tail vein metastasis model indicated that knockdown of SCD1 blocked tumor growth and metastasis. In conclusion, SCD1 could accelerate metastasis by maintaining the protein stability of β-catenin and then promoting CYP19A1 transcription to improve estrogen synthesis. SCD1 is expected to be a promised therapeutic target, and its novel inhibitor, GSE, has great therapeutic potential in NSCLC.

Abstract
Although it is widely known that proanthocyanidins elute at an increasing order of molecular masses when analysed by normal phase high performance liquid chromatography (NP-HPLC), there is no a consistent explanation of the mechanisms of their separation until now. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to give a reliable response to this question, using a complex procyanidin-rich grape seed extract. For this, an off-column static simulation of extract injection and a fragmented-column dynamic procyanidin location tests were studied to show their precipitation in an aprotic solvent, besides another off-column static simulation and multiple contact dynamic solubilisation tests to confirm procyanidin redissolution in an aprotic/protic solvent system. The results showed that separation of procyanidins in the aprotic/protic solvent system of Diol-NP-HPLC was governed by precipitation/redissolution mechanism, that could be extended to all known plant proanthocyanidin homopolymers, including hydrolysable tannins, if they are able to accomplish this condition. However, separation of monomer species, namely catechins and some hydroxybenzoic acids, was based on classic adsorption/partition mechanism. Other factors, such as analyte solubility, chromatographic conditions and sample preparation, that affect the viability of proanthocyanidin analysis by NP-HPLC were stand out and guidelines for its durable and reproducible use were defined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Worldwide, grapes (Vitis vinifera L.; family: Vitaceae) are one of the most important fruits. Grapeseed oil is rich in bioactive constituents that could be beneficial to the health and aesthetic features of human skin. OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a novel grapeseed oil-loaded dermocosmetic nanoemulgel on biophysical parameters of facial skin. METHODS This was a split-face, blinded, placebo-controlled study. A novel grapeseed oil-loaded dermocosmetic nanoemulgel was developed, and its effects on the biophysical parameters of the facial skin were evaluated and compared to those of a placebo formulation on the cheeks of 15 healthy volunteers. Melanin, erythema, sebum production, fine and large facial pores, moisture, and elasticity levels were measured using Mexameter®, Corneometer®, Sebumeter®, Cutometer®, and VisioFace®. Measurements were made on weekly basis for 12 weeks. RESULTS Compared to the placebo, the novel grapeseed oil-loaded dermocosmetic nanoemulgel received significantly higher sensory scores with regard to appearance, color, odor, consistency, adhesion, sensation, cohesiveness, and spreadability (p-value < 0.05). Additionally, the novel nanoemulgel continuously and significantly reduced skin melanin, erythema, sebum production, and fine and large pores (p-value < 0.05). On the contrary, the novel nanoemulgel continuously and significantly increased skin moisture contents and elasticity (p-value < 0.05). CONCLUSION The novel grapeseed oil-loaded dermocosmetic nanoemulgel had attractive cosmetic attributes that could be useful for improving imperfections of the human skin. Future studies are still needed to test and evaluate the benefits of this novel grapeseed oil-loaded dermocosmetic nanoemulgel in disease conditions.

Abstract
The main objective of this work is to evaluate the potential utility of an Achillea millefolium extract (yarrow extract, YE) in the control of H. pylori infection. The supercritical anti-solvent fractionation (SAF) process of YE allowed the obtaining of two different fractions: yarrow’s precipitated fraction (YPF), enriched in most polar phenolic compounds (luteolin-7-O-glucoside, luteolin, and 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid), and yarrow’s separator fraction (YSF), enriched in monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, mainly containing camphor, artemisia ketone, and borneol. YE was effective in reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in human gastric AGS cells by 16% to 29%, depending on the H. pylori strain. YPF had the highest inhibitory activity (38–40%) for ROS production. YE modulated the inflammatory response in AGS gastric cells, decreasing IL-8 production by 53% to 64%. This IL-8 inhibition also showed a strain-dependent character. YPF and YSF exhibited similar behavior, reducing IL-8 production, suggesting that both phenolic compounds and essential oils could contribute to IL-8 inhibition. YSF showed the highest antibacterial activity against H. pylori (6.3–7.1 log CFU reduction, depending on the strain) and lower MIC (0.08 mg/mL). Results obtained have shown that YE and SAF fractions (YPF and YSF) were effective as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial agents regardless of the H. pylori strain characteristics.

Villalva M, Silvan JM, Guerrero-Hurtado E, Gutierrez-Docio A, Navarro del Hierro J, Alarcón-Cavero T, Prodanov M, Martin D, Martinez-Rodriguez AJ. Influence of In Vitro Gastric Digestion of Olive Leaf Extracts on Their Bioactive Properties against H. pylori. Foods 2022; 11:foods11131832. [PMID: 35804647 PMCID: PMC9265983 DOI: 10.3390/foods11131832] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of in vitro gastric digestion of two olive leaf extracts (E1 and E2) on their chemical composition and bioactive properties against Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), one of the most successful and prevalent human pathogens. HPLC-PAD/MS analysis and anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities of both olive leaf extracts were carried out before and after their in vitro gastric digestion. The results showed that gastric digestion produced modifications of the chemical composition and bioactive properties of both olive leaf extracts. The main compounds in the extract E1 were hydroxytyrosol and its glucoside derivatives (14,556 mg/100 g), presenting all the identified compounds a more polar character than those found in the E2 extract. E2 showed a higher concentration of less polar compounds than E1 extract, with oleuropein (21,419 mg/100 g) being the major component. Gastric digestion during the fasted state (pH 2) induced an overall decrease of the most identified compounds. In the extract E1, while the anti-inflammatory capacity showed only a slight decrease (9% of IL-8 production), the antioxidant properties suffered a drastic drop (23% of ROS inhibition), as well as the antibacterial capacity. However, in the extract E2, these changes caused an increase in the anti-inflammatory (19% of IL-8 production) and antioxidant activity (9% of ROS inhibition), which could be due to the hydrolysis of oleuropein and ligustroside into their main degradation products, hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol, but the antibacterial activity was reduced. Gastric digestion during fed state (pH 5) had less influence on the composition of the extracts, affecting in a lesser degree their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity, although there was a decrease in the antibacterial activity in both extracts similar to that observed at pH 2.

Helicobacter pylori promotes gastric cancer progression through the tumor microenvironment. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 106:4375-4385. [PMID: 35723694 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-022-12011-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2021] [Revised: 05/26/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is a leading type of cancer. Although immunotherapy has yielded important recent progress in the treatment of GC, the prognosis remains poor due to drug resistance and frequent recurrence and metastasis. There are multiple known risk factors for GC, and infection with Helicobacter pylori is one of the most significant. The mechanisms underlying the associations of H. pylori and GC remain unclear, but it is well known that infection can alter the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME and the tumor itself constitute a complete ecosystem, and the TME plays critical roles in tumor progression, metastasis, and drug resistance. H. pylori infection can act synergistically with the TME to cause DNA damage and abnormal expression of multiple genes and activation of signaling pathways. It also modulates the host immune system in ways that enhance the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells, promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition, inhibit apoptosis, and provide energy support for tumor growth. This review elaborates myriad ways that H. pylori infections promote the occurrence and progression of GC by influencing the TME, providing new directions for immunotherapy treatments for this important disease. KEY POINTS: • H. pylori infections cause DNA damage and affect the repair of the TME to DNA damage. • H. pylori infections regulate oncogenes or activate the oncogenic signaling pathways. • H. pylori infections modulate the immune system within the TME.

Protective effect of grape seed extract against chronic physical stress-induced zona fasciculata injury in male rats: Functional, immunohistochemical and electron microscopic study. Microsc Res Tech 2022; 85:2813-2825. [PMID: 35411989 DOI: 10.1002/jemt.24130] [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: 11/02/2021] [Revised: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 04/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the antioxidant effect of grape seed extract (GSE) against chronic immobilization stress-induced zona fasciculata injury in Wistar male rats. Thirty male rats were divided into three groups: Non-stress group: rats were not subjected to stress protocol and received distilled water orally for 30 days. Stress group: rats received distilled water orally for 15 consecutive days before the induction of chronic immobilization stress experiment (repeated stress for 15 consecutive days), distilled water was continued along with the constant stress experiment. GSE-stress group: rats treated with oral GSE (300 mg/kg), administered orally for 15 consecutive days before the induction of chronic immobilization stress experiment (repeated stress for 15 consecutive days), GSE was continued along with the stress exposure. Chronic stress was induced by placing each animal in a restrainer for 2 h daily for 15 consecutive days in both Stress and GSE-stress groups. The serum corticosterone and adrenal cortex malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured as indices of stress. Immunohistochemistry of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) as a nitrosative stress marker beside the adrenal cortex's ultrastructure, particularly zona fasciculata, was assessed. Chronic restraint stress significantly elevated the serum corticosterone and adrenal cortex MDA levels, while oral administration of GSE reduced the serum corticosterone level, adrenal cortex MDA levels, and iNOS immunoreactivity in zona fasciculata. Besides, adrenocortical ultrastructure significantly improved. These results suggested that GSE enhanced the antioxidant defense against reactive oxygen species produced under chronic stress conditions, protecting the adrenal cortex.

Olive-Leaf Extracts Modulate Inflammation and Oxidative Stress Associated with Human H. pylori Infection. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:2030. [PMID: 34943133 PMCID: PMC8698654 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10122030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2021] [Revised: 12/11/2021] [Accepted: 12/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the major human pathogens and the main cause of pathological damages that can progress from chronic gastritis to gastric cancer. During the colonization of gastric mucosa, this bacterium provokes a strong inflammatory response and subsequent oxidative process, which are associated with tissue damage. Therefore, the objective of this research was to evaluate the ability of two olive-leaf extracts (E1 and E2) to modulate the inflammatory response and oxidative stress in H. pylori-infected human gastric AGS cells. The obtained results showed that both extracts significantly decreased interleukin-8 (IL-8) secretion and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in human gastric AGS cells. Both extracts also showed antibacterial activity against different H. pylori strains. HPLC-PAD-MS characterization demonstrated that extract E1 was mainly composed of highly hydrophilic compounds, such as hydroxytyrosol (HT) and its glucosides, and it was the most effective extract as an antibacterial agent. In contrast, extract E2 was composed mostly of moderately hydrophilic compounds, such as oleuropein (OLE), and it was more effective than extract E1 as an anti-inflammatory agent. Both extracts exhibited similar potential to decrease ROS production. These results show the importance of standardizing the extract composition according to the bioactive properties that should be potentiated.
