Liraglutide alleviated alpha-pyrrolidinovalerophenone (α-PVP) induced cognitive deficits in rats by modifying brain mitochondrial impairment. Eur J Pharmacol 2024; 978:176776. [PMID: 38936451 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176776] [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: 05/01/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024]
Abstract
The use of NPS compounds is increasing, and impairment in spatial learning and memory is a growing concern. Alpha-pyrrolidinovalerophenone (α-PVP) consumption, as a commonly used NPS, can impair spatial learning and memory via the brain mitochondrial dysfunction mechanism. Liraglutide isone of the most well-known Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists that is used as an anti-diabetic and anti-obesity drug. According to current research, Liraglutide likely ameliorates cognitive impairment in neurodegenerative conditions and substance use disorders. Hence, the purpose of this study is examining the effect of Liraglutide on α-PVP-induced spatial learning and memory problems due to brain mitochondrial dysfunction. Wistar rats (8 in each group) received α-PVP (20 mg/kg/d for 10 consecutive days, intraperitoneally (I.P.)). Then, Liraglutide was administered at 47 and 94 μg/kg/d, I.P., for 4 weeks following the α-PVP administration. The Morris Water Maze (MWM) task evaluated spatial learning and memory 24 h after Liraglutide treatment. Bedside, brain mitochondrial activity parameters, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), cytochrome c release, mitochondrial outer membrane damage and swelling, and brain ADP/ATP ratio, were studied. Our results showed that Liraglutide ameliorated α-PVP-induced spatial learning and memory impairments through alleviating brain mitochondrial dysfunction (which is indicated by increasing ROS formation, collapsed MMP, mitochondrial outer membrane damage, cytochrome c release, mitochondrial swelling, and increased brain ADP/ATP ratio). This study could be used as a starting point for future studies about the possible role of Liraglutide in ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction leading to substance use disorder- induced cognitive impairment.

Abstract
In the past, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was recognized as a toxic and dangerous gas; in recent years, with increased research, we have discovered that H2S can act as an endogenous regulatory transmitter. In mammals, H2S-catalyzing enzymes, such as cystathionine-β-synthase, cystathionine-γ-lyase, and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase, are differentially expressed in a variety of tissues and affect a variety of biological functions, such as transcriptional and posttranslational modification of genes, activation of signaling pathways in the cell, and metabolic processes in tissues, by producing H2S. Various preclinical studies have shown that H2S affects physiological and pathological processes in the body. However, a detailed systematic summary of these roles in health and disease is lacking. Therefore, this review provides a thorough overview of the physiological roles of H2S in different systems and the diseases associated with disorders of H2S metabolism, such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, hypertension, neurodegenerative diseases, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer. Meanwhile, this paper also introduces H2S donors and novel release modes, as well as the latest preclinical experimental results, aiming to provide researchers with new ideas to discover new diagnostic targets and therapeutic options.

Effects of ROS pathway inhibitors and NADH and FADH 2 linked substrates on mitochondrial bioenergetics and ROS emission in the heart and kidney cortex and outer medulla. Arch Biochem Biophys 2023; 744:109690. [PMID: 37429534 PMCID: PMC10528392 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2023.109690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/06/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
Mitochondria are major sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which play important roles in both physiological and pathological processes. However, the specific contributions of different ROS production and scavenging components in the mitochondria of metabolically active tissues such as heart and kidney cortex and outer medulla (OM) are not well understood. Therefore, the goal of this study was to determine contributions of different ROS production and scavenging components and provide detailed comparisons of mitochondrial respiration, bioenergetics, ROS emission between the heart and kidney cortex and OM using tissues obtained from the same Sprague-Dawley rat under identical conditions and perturbations. Specifically, data were obtained using both NADH-linked substrate pyruvate + malate and FADH2-linked substrate succinate followed by additions of inhibitors of different components of the electron transport chain (ETC) and oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) and other ROS production and scavenging systems. Currently, there is limited data available for the mitochondria of kidney cortex and OM, the two major energy-consuming tissues in the body only next to the heart, and scarce quantitative information on the interplay between mitochondrial ROS production and scavenging systems in the three tissues. The findings from this study demonstrate significant differences in mitochondrial respiratory and bioenergetic functions and ROS emission among the three tissues. The results quantify the rates of ROS production from different complexes of the ETC, identify the complexes responsible for variations in mitochondrial membrane depolarization and regulations of ROS production, and quantify the contributions of ROS scavenging enzymes towards overall mitochondrial ROS emission. These findings advance our fundamental knowledge of tissue-specific and substrate-dependent mitochondrial respiratory and bioenergetic functions and ROS emission. This is important given the critical role that excess ROS production, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction in the heart and kidney cortex and OM play in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular and renal diseases, including salt-sensitive hypertension.

Abstract
Clarireedia spp. is a destructive phytopathogenic fungus that causes turf dollar spot of bent-grass, leading to widespread lawn death. In this study, we explored the antifungal capability of 6-pentyl-2H-pyran-2-one (6PP), a natural metabolite volatilized by microorganisms, which plays an important role in the biological control of turfgrass dollar spot. However, the mechanisms by which 6PP inhibits Clarireedia jacksonii remain unknown. In the present study, C. jacksonii mycelial growth was inhibited by the 6PP treatment and the 6PP treatment damaged cell membrane integrity, causing an increase in relative conduc-tivity. Furthermore, physiological and biochemistry assay showed that 6PP treatment can enhance reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, malondialdehyde (MDA) content obviously increased with 6PP exposure, increased alchohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and depleted acetalde-hyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), and activated the activities of many antioxidant enzymes in C. jacksonii. Gen Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis revealed that some genes in C. jacksonii after 6PP treatment related to integrity of the cell wall and membrane, and oxidative stress were significantly downregulated. It is worth mentioning that the fatty acid degradation pathway is significantly upregulated, with an increase in ATP content and ATP synthase activity, which may promote fungal cell apoptosis. Moreover, we found that the expression of ABC transporters, and glutathione metabolism encoding genes were increased to respond to external stimuli. Taken together, these findings revealed the potential antifungal mechanism of 6PP against Clarireedia spp., which also provides a theoretical basis for the commercial utilization of 6PP as a green pesticide in the future.

Front Nutr 2023; 10:1184736.

Abstract
Folate-mediated one-carbon metabolism (FOCM) is closely associated with postharvest preservation. This study investigated the effects of exogenous nitric oxide (NO) on FOCM, storage quality, energy metabolism, and mitochondrial membrane integrity in cold-storage peach fruit. In this experiment, peaches were soaked with 1.5 mmol L-1S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) as NO donor, and the negative treatment (NT) solution containing 5 μmol L-1 carboxy-PTIO (c-PTIO, NO scavenger), 200 μmol L-1 NG-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, NO synthase-like enzyme inhibitor), and 200 μmol L-1 sodium tungstate dihydrate (nitrate reductase inhibitor) and stored at 0°C. The results showed that NO decreased the activity of S-adenosylmethionine synthase and S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase and increased the activity of methionine sulfoxide reductase A, as well as the content of N5-methyl-THF, the ratio of tetrahydrofolate (THF), homocysteine, methionine, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), and SAM to S-adenosylhomocysteine compared with the control, indicating that NO effectively increased FOCM flux by affecting the activity of FOCM enzymes. Meanwhile, NO increased the activities of H+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, cytochrome c oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase, and the contents of adenosine triphosphate and adenosine diphosphate, and maintained high energy charge in peaches during storage. NO retarded the increase in mitochondrial permeability transition, reactive oxygen species content, and the decrease in mitochondrial membrane fluidity, membrane potential, and swelling. NT treatment exhibited the opposite results. In conclusion, these results suggested that NO could induce the accumulation of folate and FOCM flux and maintain mitochondrial energy levels, which might be responsible for maintaining the quality of peaches during cold storage.

Quercetin Reprograms Immunometabolism of Macrophages via the SIRT1/PGC-1α Signaling Pathway to Ameliorate Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Oxidative Damage. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24065542. [PMID: 36982615 PMCID: PMC10059595 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24065542] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The redox system is closely related to changes in cellular metabolism. Regulating immune cell metabolism and preventing abnormal activation by adding antioxidants may become an effective treatment for oxidative stress and inflammation-related diseases. Quercetin is a naturally sourced flavonoid with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. However, whether quercetin can inhibit LPS-induced oxidative stress in inflammatory macrophages by affecting immunometabolism has been rarely reported. Therefore, the present study combined cell biology and molecular biology methods to investigate the antioxidant effect and mechanism of quercetin in LPS-induced inflammatory macrophages at the RNA and protein levels. Firstly, quercetin was found to attenuate the effect of LPS on macrophage proliferation and reduce LPS-induced cell proliferation and pseudopodia formation by inhibiting cell differentiation, as measured by cell activity and proliferation. Subsequently, through the detection of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory factors and antioxidant enzyme activity, it was found that quercetin can improve the antioxidant enzyme activity of inflammatory macrophages and inhibit their ROS production and overexpression of inflammatory factors. In addition, the results of mitochondrial morphology and mitochondrial function assays showed that quercetin could upregulate the mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP production and ATP synthase content decrease induced by LPS, and reverse the mitochondrial morphology damage to a certain extent. Finally, Western blotting analysis demonstrated that quercetin significantly upregulated the protein expressions of SIRT1 and PGC-1α, that were inhibited by LPS. And the inhibitory effects of quercetin on LPS-induced ROS production in macrophages and the protective effects on mitochondrial morphology and membrane potential were significantly decreased by the addition of SIRT1 inhibitors. These results suggested that quercetin reprograms the mitochondria metabolism of macrophages through the SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathway, thereby exerting its effect of alleviating LPS-induced oxidative stress damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During the transition period, the insufficient dry matter intake and a sharply increased in energy consumption to produce large quantities of milk, high yielding cows would enter a negative energy balance (NEB) that causes an increase in ketone bodies (KBs) and decrease in reproduction efficiency. The excess concentrations of circulating KBs, represented by β-hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA), could lead to oxidative damage, which potentially cause injury to follicular granulosa cells (fGCs) and delayed follicular development. Sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) regulates mitochondria reactive oxygen species (mitoROS) homeostasis in a beneficial manner; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying its involvement in the BHBA-induced injury of fGCs is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to explore the protection effects and underlying mechanisms of Sirt3 against BHBA overload-induced damage of fGCs. RESULTS Our findings demonstrated that 2.4 mmol/L of BHBA stress increased the levels of mitoROS in bovine fGCs. Further investigations identified the subsequent mitochondrial dysfunction, including an increased abnormal rate of mitochondrial architecture, mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) opening, reductions in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and Ca2+ release; these dysfunctions then triggered the caspase cascade reaction of apoptosis in fGCs. Notably, the overexpression of Sirt3 prior to treatment enhanced mitochondrial autophagy by increasing the expression levels of Beclin-1, thus preventing BHBA-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in fGCs. Furthermore, our data suggested that the AMPK-mTOR-Beclin-1 pathway may be involved in the protective mechanism of Sirt3 against cellular injury triggered by BHBA stimulation. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that Sirt3 protects fGCs from BHBA-triggered injury by enhancing autophagy, attenuating oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage. This study provides new strategies to mitigate the fGCs injury caused by excessive BHBA stress in dairy cows with ketosis.

Abstract
Hypoxic stress occurs in various physiological and pathological states, such as aging, disease, or high-altitude exposure, all of which pose a challenge to many organs in the body, necessitating adaptation. However, the exact mechanisms by which hypoxia affects advanced brain function (learning and memory skills in particular) remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of hypoxic stress on hippocampal function. Specifically, we studied the effects of the dysfunction of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation using global proteomics. First, we found that hypoxic stress impaired cognitive and motor abilities, whereas it caused no substantial changes in the brain morphology or structure of mice. Second, bioinformatics analysis indicated that hypoxia affected the expression of 516 proteins, of which 71.1% were upregulated and 28.5% were downregulated. We demonstrated that mitochondrial function was altered and manifested as a decrease in NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) 1 alpha subcomplex 4 expression, accompanied by increased reactive oxygen species generation, resulting in further neuronal injury. These results may provide some new insights into how hypoxic stress alters hippocampal function via the dysfunction of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.

Abstract
The cytochrome c oxidase complex, complex VI (CIV), catalyzes the terminal step of the mitochondrial electron transport chain where the reduction of oxygen to water by cytochrome c is coupled to the generation of a protonmotive force that drive the synthesis of ATP. CIV evolution was greatly accelerated in humans and other anthropoid primates and appears to be driven by adaptive selection. However, it is not known if there are significant functional differences between the anthropoid primates CIV, and other mammals. Comparison of the high-resolution structures of bovine CIV, mouse CIV and human CIV shows structural differences that are associated with anthropoid-specific substitutions. Here I examine the possible effects of these substitutions in four CIV peptides that are known to affect proton pumping: the mtDNA-coded subunits I, II and III, and the nuclear-encoded subunit VIa2. I conclude that many of the anthropoid-specific substitutions could be expected to modulate the rate and/or the efficiency of proton pumping. These results are compatible with the previously proposed hypothesis that the accelerated evolution of CIV in anthropoid primates is driven by selection pressure to lower the mitochondrial protonmotive force and thus decrease the rate of superoxide generation by mitochondria.
