[PMID: 38091637 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115999] [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: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected the mental health of individuals worldwide, and the risk of psychiatric sequelae and consequent mental disorders has increased among the general population, health care workers and patients with COVID-19. Achieving effective and widespread prevention of pandemic-related psychiatric sequelae to protect the mental health of the global population is a serious challenge. Salidroside, as a natural agent, has substantial pharmacological activity and health effects, exerts obvious neuroprotective effects, and may be effective in preventing and treating psychiatric sequelae and mental disorders resulting from stress stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Herein, we systematically summarise, analyse and discuss the therapeutic effects of salidroside in the prevention and treatment of psychiatric sequelae as well as its roles in preventing the progression of mental disorders, and fully clarify the potential of salidroside as a widely applicable agent for preventing mental disorders caused by stress; the mechanisms underlying the potential protective effects of salidroside are involved in the regulation of the oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, neural regeneration and cell apoptosis in the brain, the network homeostasis of neurotransmission, HPA axis and cholinergic system, and the improvement of synaptic plasticity. Notably, this review innovatively proposes that salidroside is a potential agent for treating stress-induced health issues during the COVID-19 pandemic and provides scientific evidence and a theoretical basis for the use of natural products to combat the current mental health crisis.

Abstract
Sepsis induces neuroinflammation, BBB disruption, cerebral hypoxia, neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction, and cell death causing sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE). These pathological consequences lead to short- and long-term neurobehavioural deficits. Till now there is no specific treatment that directly improves SAE and its associated behavioural impairments. In this review, we discuss the underlying mechanisms of sepsis-induced brain injury with a focus on the latest progress regarding neuroprotective effects of SIRT1 (silent mating type information regulation-2 homologue-1). SIRT1 is an NAD+ -dependent class III protein deacetylase. It is able to modulate multiple downstream signals (including NF-κB, HMGB, AMPK, PGC1α and FoxO), which are involved in the development of SAE by its deacetylation activity. There are multiple recent studies showing the neuroprotective effects of SIRT1 in neuroinflammation related diseases. The proposed neuroprotective action of SIRT1 is meant to bring a promising therapeutic strategy for managing SAE and ameliorating its related behavioural deficits.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive change in response to pressure overload, however the hypertrophy may evolve toward heart failure if cannot be corrected as soon as possible. The dysfunction of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα) plays a key role in cardiac hypertrophy. In the present study, salidroside inhibited the mRNA expressions of hypertrophic markers including atrial natriuretic factor and brain natriuretic peptide in a dosage-dependent manner. Furthermore, the protein expression and transcriptional activity of PPARα were increased by salidroside in H9C2 cells treated with angiotensin II, as well as the target genes of PPARα, while the situations were nearly reversed when PPARα was knocked down. Next, salidroside could elevate the expression of ATGL, a key upstream regulator of PPARα; the effects of salidroside including increasing PPARα function and inhibiting cardiomyocyte hypertrophy were impaired by ATGL knockdown. Our present studies suggested that salidroside elevated PPARα function to alleviate cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, which was involved in the increase of ATGL expression.

Abstract
Natural products have a significant role in the prevention of disease and boosting of health in humans and animals. Stroke is a disease with high prevalence and incidence, the pathogenesis is a complex cascade reaction. In recent years, it’s reported that a vast number of natural products have demonstrated beneficial effects on stroke worldwide. Natural products have been discovered to modulate activities with multiple targets and signaling pathways to exert neuroprotection via direct or indirect effects on enzymes, such as kinases, regulatory receptors, and proteins. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the established pharmacological effects and multiple target mechanisms of natural products for cerebral ischemic injury in vitro and in vivo preclinical models, and their potential neuro-therapeutic applications. In addition, the biological activity of natural products is closely related to their structure, and the structure-activity relationship of most natural products in neuroprotection is lacking, which should be further explored in future. Overall, we stress on natural products for their role in neuroprotection, and this wide band of pharmacological or biological activities has made them suitable candidates for the treatment of stroke.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI), a leading cause of morbidity worldwide, induces mechanical, persistent structural, and metabolic abnormalities in neurons and other brain-resident cells. The key pathological features of TBI include neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, and mitochondrial dysfunction. These pathological processes persist for a period of time after TBIs. Sirtuins are evolutionarily conserved nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylases and mono-ADP-ribosyl transferases. The mammalian sirtuin family has seven members, referred to as Sirtuin (SIRT) 1-7. Accumulating evidence suggests that SIRT1 and SIRT3 play a neuroprotective role in TBI. Although the evidence is scant, considering the involvement of SIRT2, 4-7 in other brain injury models, they may also intervene in similar pathophysiology in TBI. Neurodegenerative diseases are generally accepted sequelae of TBI. It was found that TBI and neurodegenerative diseases have many similarities and overlaps in pathological features. Besides, sirtuins play some unique roles in some neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, we propose that sirtuins might be a promising therapeutic target for both TBI and associated neurodegenerative diseases. In this paper, we review the neuroprotective effects of sirtuins on TBI as well as related neurodegeneration and discuss the therapeutic potential of sirtuin modulators.

Abstract
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is featured by the increase in pulmonary vascular resistance and pulmonary arterial pressure. Despite that abnormal proliferation and phenotypic changes in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (HPASMCs) contributing to the pathophysiology of PAH, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, we detected the expression of miR‐629 in hypoxia‐treated HPASMCs and explored the mechanistic role of miR‐629 in regulating HPASMC proliferation, migration and apoptosis. Hypoxia time‐dependently induced up‐regulation of miR‐629 and promoted cell viability and proliferation in HPASMCs. Treatment with miR‐629 mimics promoted HPASMCs proliferation and migration, but inhibited cell apoptosis; while knockdown of miR‐629 suppressed the cell proliferation and migration but promoted cell apoptosis in HPASMCs. The bioinformatics prediction revealed FOXO3 and PERP as downstream targets of miR‐629, and miR‐629 negatively regulated the expression of FOXO3 and PERP via targeting the 3’ untranslated regions. Enforced expression of FOXO3 or PERP attenuated the miR‐629 overexpression or hypoxia‐induced enhanced effects on HPASMC proliferation and proliferation, and the suppressive effects on HPASMC apoptosis. Furthermore, the expression of miR‐629 was up‐regulated, and the expression of FOXO3 and PERP mRNA was down‐regulated in the plasma from PAH patients when compared to healthy controls. In conclusion, the present study provided evidence regarding the novel role of miR‐629 in regulating cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis of HPASMCs during hypoxia.
