Exp Cell Res 2024; 441:114168. [PMID: 39004201 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2024.114168] [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: 05/18/2024] [Revised: 07/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Intramuscular fat (IMF) content significantly impacts meat quality. influenced by complex interactions between skeletal muscle cells and adipocytes. Adipogenesis plays a pivotal role in IMF formation. Exosomes, extracellular membranous nanovesicles, facilitate intercellular communication by transporting proteins, nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), and other biomolecules into target cells, thereby modulating cellular behaviors. Recent studies have linked exosome-derived microRNAs (miRNAs) and other cargo to adipogenic processes. Various cell types, including skeletal muscle cells, interact with adipocytes via exosome secretion and uptake. Exosomes entering adipocytes regulate adipogenesis by modulating key signaling pathways, thereby influencing the extent and distribution of IMF deposition. This review comprehensively explores the origin, formation, and mechanisms of exosome action, along with current research and their applications in adipogenesis. Emphasis is placed on exosome-mediated regulation of miRNAs, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), proteins, lipids, and other biomolecules during adipogenesis. Leveraging exosomal contents for genetic breeding and treating obesity-related disorders is discussed. Insights gathered contribute to advancing understanding and potential therapeutic applications of exosome-regulated adipogenesis mechanisms.

Yan S, Pei Y, Li J, Tang Z, Yang Y. Recent Progress on Circular RNAs in the Development of Skeletal Muscle and Adipose Tissues of Farm Animals. Biomolecules 2023; 13:biom13020314. [PMID: 36830683 PMCID: PMC9953704 DOI: 10.3390/biom13020314] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a highly conserved and specifically expressed novel class of covalently closed non-coding RNAs. CircRNAs can function as miRNA sponges, protein scaffolds, and regulatory factors, and play various roles in development and other biological processes in mammals. With the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technology, thousands of circRNAs have been discovered in farm animals; some reportedly play vital roles in skeletal muscle and adipose development. These are critical factors affecting meat yield and quality. In this review, we have highlighted the recent advances in circRNA-related studies of skeletal muscle and adipose in farm animals. We have also described the biogenesis, properties, and biological functions of circRNAs. Furthermore, we have comprehensively summarized the functions and regulatory mechanisms of circRNAs in skeletal muscle and adipose development in farm animals and their effects on economic traits such as meat yield and quality. Finally, we propose that circRNAs are putative novel targets to improve meat yield and quality traits during animal breeding.

Novel pyrrolidine-aminophenyl-1,4-naphthoquinones: structure-related mechanisms of leukemia cell death. Mol Cell Biochem 2023; 478:393-406. [PMID: 35836027 DOI: 10.1007/s11010-022-04514-0] [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: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Novel derivatives of aminophenyl-1,4-naphthoquinones, in which a pyrrolidine group was added to the naphthoquinone ring, were synthesized and investigated for the mechanisms of leukemic cell killing. The novel compounds, TW-85 and TW-96, differ in the functional (methyl or hydroxyl) group at the para-position of the aminophenyl moiety. TW-85 and TW-96 were found to induce concentration- and time-dependent apoptotic and/or necrotic cell death in human U937 promonocytic leukemia cells but only TW-96 could also kill K562 chronic myeloid leukemia cells and CCRF-CEM lymphoblastic leukemia cells. Normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells were noticeably less responsive to both compounds than leukemia cells. At low micromolar concentrations used, TW-85 killed U937 cells mainly by inducing apoptosis. TW-96 was a weaker apoptotic agent in U937 cells but proved to be cytotoxic and a stronger inducer of necrosis in all three leukemic cell lines tested. Both compounds induced mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, cytochrome c release, and caspase activation in U937 cells. Cytotoxicity induced by TW-96, but not by TW-85, was associated with the elevation of the cytosolic levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The latter was attenuated by diphenyleneiodonium, indicating that NADPH oxidase was likely to be the source of ROS generation. Activation of p38 MAPK by the two agents appeared to prevent necrosis but differentially affected apoptotic cell death in U937 cells. These results further expand our understanding of the structure-activity relationship of aminophenyl-1,4-naphthoquinones as potential anti-leukemic agents with distinct modes of action.

Abstract
Due to its prominent secretory activity, adipose tissue (AT) is now considered a major player in the crosstalk between organs, especially with skeletal muscle. In which, exosomes are effective carriers for the intercellular material transfer of a wide range of molecules that can influence a series of physiological and pathological processes in recipient cells. Considering their underlying roles, the regulatory mechanisms of adipose-secreted exosomes and their cellular crosstalk with skeletal muscle have received great attention in the field. In this review, we describe what is currently known of adipose-secreted exosomes, as well as their applications in skeletal muscle pathophysiology.

Abstract
Silver/silver chloride nanoparticles (Ag/AgCl-NPs) were synthesized for the first time from the herbal Geodorum densiflorum rhizome extracts and characterized by different techniques. The surface plasmon resonance peak at 455 nm was observed in the UV–Visible spectrum, the average particle size of 25 nm was determined by SEM, XRD reflection peaks (28.00°, 32.42°, 38.28°, 46.38°, 54.94°, 57.60°, 64.64°, and 67.48°) indicated the presence of Ag-NPs and AgCl-NPs, heat stability was confirmed by TGA and FTIR analysis indicated the presence of alcohol/phenol, alkanes, primary amines, nitro compounds, alkyl chloride functional groups. The synthesized Ag/AgCl-NPs, previously synthesized Kaempferia rotunda and Zizyphus mauritiana mediated Ag/AgCl-NPs separately inhibited the proliferation of BxPC-3 cells with the IC50 values of 7.8, 17.1, and 20.1 µg/ml, respectively. In the case of MCF-7 cells, the IC50 values of G. densiflorum- Ag/AgCl-NPs and K. rotunda-Ag/AgCl-NPs were 21.5 and 23.5 µg/ml, respectively. Whereas the IC50 of G. densiflorum-Ag/AgCl-NPs was 28.0 µg/ml against glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs). Induction of apoptosis in GSCs, BxPC-3 and MCF-7 cells was noted followed by NPs treatment. In GSCs, the expression level of NFκB, TNFα, p21, and TLR9 genes were upregulated after treatment with G. densiflorum-Ag/AgCl-NPs while in the MCF-7 cells, the expression of p53, FAS, Caspase-8 and -9, NFκB, MAPK, JNK and p21 genes were increased. G. densiflorum-Ag/AgCl-NPs inhibited 60% and 95% of EAC cells growth at the doses of 2 and 4 mg/Kg/day after intraperitoneal treatment with five consequent days, respectively. A remarkable improvement of hematological parameters with the decreased average tumor weight and increase of 75% life span of G. densiflorum-Ag/AgCl-NPs treated mice were observed. Altogether, this study reported for the first time in vitro anticancer activity of biogenic G. densiflorum-Ag/AgCl-NPs against GSC cells along with MCF-7 and BxPC-3 cells and in vivo anticancer properties against EAC cells.

Abstract
Global food systems are under significant pressure to provide enough food, particularly protein-rich foods whose demand is on the rise in times of crisis and inflation, as presently existing due to post-COVID-19 pandemic effects and ongoing conflict in Ukraine and resulting in looming food insecurity, according to FAO. Cultivated meat (CM) and cultivated seafood (CS) are protein-rich alternatives for traditional meat and fish that are obtained via cellular agriculture (CA) i.e., tissue engineering for food applications. Stem and progenitor cells are the building blocks and starting point for any CA bioprocess. This review presents CA-relevant vertebrate cell types and procedures needed for their myogenic and adipogenic differentiation since muscle and fat tissue are the primary target tissues for CM/CS production. The review also describes existing challenges, such as a need for immortalized cell lines, or physical and biochemical parameters needed for enhanced meat/fat culture efficiency and ways to address them.

Abstract
Si Jun Zi Tang (SJZT) is a classic Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) prescription used to treat aging-related diseases. However, the potential molecular mechanisms of the anti-aging effects of the bioactive compounds and their targets remain elusive. In this study, we combined network pharmacology and molecular docking with in vivo experiments to elucidate the anti-aging molecular mechanism of SJZT. A series of network pharmacology strategies were used to predict potential targets and therapeutic mechanisms of SJZT, including compound screening, pathway enrichment analysis and molecular docking studies. Based on the network pharmacology predictions and observation of outward signs of aging, the expression levels of selected genes and proteins and possible key targets were subsequently validated and analysed using qRT-PCR and immunoblotting. Using a data mining approach, 235 effective targets of SJZT and aging were obtained. AKT1, STAT3, JUN, MAPK3, TP53, MAPK1, TNF, RELA, MAPK14 and IL6 were identified as core genes in the Protein-Protein Interaction Networks (PPI) analysis. The results of the effective target Gene Ontology (Go) functional enrichment analysis suggested that SJZT may be involved aging and antiapoptotic biological processes. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis indicated that the anti-aging mechanism of SJZT may be associated with the PI3K-AKT and P38 MAPK signalling pathways. Molecular docking analysis suggested that kaempferol and quercetin could fit in the binding pockets of the core targets. In addition, SJZT alleviated the aging symptoms of mice such as osteoporosis and hair loss. In conclusion, the anti-aging effect of SJZT was associated with the inhibition of the PI3K-AKT and P38 MAPK signalling pathways, and these findings were consistent with the network pharmacology prediction.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most severe neurodegenerative diseases observed in the elderly population. Although the hallmarks of AD have been identified, the methods for its definitive diagnosis and treatment are still lacking. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have become a promising source for biomarkers since the identification of their content. EVs are released from multiple cell types and, when released from neurons, they pass from the brain to the blood with their cargo molecules. Hence, neuron-specific EV-resident microRNAs (miRNAs) are promising biomarkers for diagnosis of AD. This study aimed to identify altered miRNA content in small neuron-derived extracellular vesicles (sNDEVs) isolated from AD patients and healthy individuals. Furthermore, we examined the role of sNDEV-resident miRNAs in neuron-glia cellular interaction to understand their role in AD propagation. We identified 10 differentially expressed miRNAs in the sNDEVs of patients via next-generation sequencing and validated the most dysregulated miRNA, let-7e, with qRT-PCR. Let-7e was significantly increased in the sNDEVs of AD patients compared with those of healthy controls in a larger cohort. First, we evaluated the diagnostic utility of let-7e via ROC curve analysis, which revealed an AUC value of 0.9214. We found that IL-6 gene expression was increased in human microglia after treatment with sNDEVs of AD patients with a high amount of let-7e. Our study suggests that sNDEV-resident let-7e is a potential biomarker for AD diagnosis, and that AD patient-derived sNDEVs induce a neuroinflammatory response in microglia.

Abstract
![]()
Colorectal cancer
typically begins from a nonmalignant polyp formation
in the large intestine that, over time, develops into colorectal cancer.
The growth of benign polyps can be checked if detected in the early
stages of the disease. Doctors usually recommend colonoscopy to average
and high-risk individuals for colorectal cancer screening. Elevated
carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a broadly used biomarker for colorectal
cancer. The genetic and epigenetic alteration of genes such as p53,
BRAF, APC, and PIK3CA is also correlated with colorectal cancer in
various clinical studies. In general, tissue biopsy is most frequently
used for colorectal cancer diagnosis, but the whole tumor heterogeneity
cannot be accessed by this technique. Furthermore, such a highly invasive
technique is not suitable for repeated testing. Recently, extracellular
vesicles (EVs), lipid bilayer enclosed sacs secreted from colorectal
cancer cells, are emerging as a diagnostic tool for colon cancer detection.
The major advantages of using EVs for colon cancer diagnosis are (i)
EVs can be isolated in a noninvasive manner from the body fluid and
(ii) EV incorporated cargoes (mostly RNAs) reveal various aspects
of colorectal cancer. EV-RNAs are also implicated in tumor invasion
and influence the immune system for the further spread of tumors.
However, due to the lack of standardized EV detection strategies,
diagnostic applicability is limited. Herein, we review the recent
literature on the pathobiological dependence of colorectal cancer
on EV-RNAs. Further, we present the advantages of identification and
characterization of EV-RNAs to explore the connection between differential
expression of extracellular vesicle incorporated RNAs and colorectal
cancer. How this approach may potentially translate into point of
care colorectal cancer diagnostics is also discussed.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common human malignancies in the digestive tract with high mortality. Alantolactone (ATL), as a plant-derived sesquiterpene lactone, has shown a variety of pharmacological activities, such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-virus and so on. However, the exact molecular mechanism of ATL in colorectal cancer remains largely unknown. Here, we performed a study to explore the effect and mechanism of ATL on colorectal cancer. The CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, Wound-healing and Transwell assays were performed to evaluate the cytotoxic effect, antiproliferative effect, anti-migratory and anti-invasive properties of ATL respectively. The xenograft tumor model was established in Balb/c mice to evaluate the anti-tumor effect. The expression levels of proteins involved the MAPK-JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway were measured by Western blot and RT-qPCR both in cells and tumor tissues. The results showed that ATL could inhibit the cells activities of various colon cancer cell lines. Moreover, ATL could induce HCT-116 cells nuclear pyknosis, mitochondrial membrane potential loss, G0/G1 phase arrest, as well as enhance the proportion of apoptosis cells and inhibit colony formation. The migration distance and invasion rate of cells were significantly reduced after treated with ATL. Additionally, in the xenograft model, ATL (50 mg/kg) significantly decreased the tumor tumor volume and weight (p < 0.001). For the anti-colon cancer mechanism, the ATL showed the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptosis effect by activating MAPK-JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway. In conclusion, ATL exhibits anti-proliferation and apoptosis-promoting potential in colon cancer via the activation of MAPK-JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway.

Abstract
White adipose tissue (WAT) is involved in long-term energy storage and represents 10–15% of total body weight in healthy humans. WAT secretes many peptides (adipokines), hormones and steroids involved in its homeostatic role, especially in carbohydrate–lipid metabolism regulation. Recently, adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles (AdEVs) have been highlighted as important actors of intercellular communication that participate in metabolic responses to control energy flux and immune response. In this review, we focus on the role of AdEVs in the cross-talks between the different cellular types composing WAT with regard to their contribution to WAT homeostasis and metabolic complications development. We also discuss the AdEV cargoes (proteins, lipids, RNAs) which may explain AdEV’s biological effects and demonstrate that, in terms of proteins, AdEV has a very specific signature. Finally, we list and suggest potential therapeutic strategies to modulate AdEV release and composition in order to reduce their deleterious effects during the development of metabolic complications associated with obesity.
