[PMID: 36501187 PMCID: PMC9739508 DOI: 10.3390/nu14235157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2022] [Revised: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Mono- and poly-O-methylated flavonols and their glycoside derivatives belong to the group of natural plant polyphenols with a wide spectrum of pharmacological activities. These compounds are known for their antioxidant, antimutagenic, hepatoprotective, antidiabetic, and antilipogenic properties. Additionally, they inhibit carcinogenesis and cancer development. Having in mind the multidirectional biological activity of methylated flavonols, we would like to support further study on their health-promoting activities; in this review we summarized the most recent reports on syringetin and some of its structural analogues: laricitrin, ayanin, and isorhamnetin. Natural sources and biological potential of these substances were described based on the latest research papers.

Differences in Antioxidant Potential of Allium cepa Husk of Red, Yellow, and White Varieties. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11071243. [PMID: 35883734 PMCID: PMC9311763 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11071243] [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: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 06/21/2022] [Accepted: 06/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The effective management of agro-industry organic waste for developing high-commercial-value products is a promising facet of the circular economy. Annually, more than 550,000 tons of waste that is potentially rich in biologically active substances is generated worldwide while processing onions (Allium cepa L.). The antioxidant potential of red, yellow, and white onion husks was studied using FRAP, ORAC, chemiluminescence, and UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS analysis methods. The extraction of phenolic compounds from onion husks was more effective when using an aqueous solution of 70% ethanol as compared with water. Ethanolic extract from red onion husks exhibited the highest TACORAC and TACFRAP values, averaging 2017.34 µmol-equiv. Trolox/g raw material and 2050.23 µmol-equiv. DQ/g raw material, respectively, while the white onion exhibited much lower levels of antioxidants. According to the chemiluminescence results, it was determined that the red and yellow onion husks contained antioxidants of three types of power, while white onion husks only contained medium and weak types. The highest content of flavonoids was found in red onion husks, averaging 1915.90 ± 9.92 µg-eq. DQ/g of raw material and 321.42 ± 2.61 µg-eq. DQ/g of raw material for ethanol and water, respectively, while yellow onion husks exhibited 544.06 ± 2.73 µg-eq. DQ/g of raw material and 89.41 ± 2.08 for ethanol and water, respectively. Quercetin and its glycosides were the most representative flavonoids, and a number of substances with different pharmacological and biological properties were also identified.

Molecular cloning and characterization of two distinct caffeoyl CoA O-methyltransferases (CCoAOMTs) from the liverwort Marchantia paleacea. PLANT SCIENCE : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2022; 314:111102. [PMID: 34895539 DOI: 10.1016/j.plantsci.2021.111102] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2021] [Revised: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Caffeoyl CoA O-methyltransferases (CCoAOMTs) catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine to a hydroxyl moiety of caffeoyl-CoA as part of the lignin biosynthetic pathway. CCoAOMT-like proteins also catalyze to a variety of flavonoids, coumarins, and phenylpropanoids. Several CCoAOMTs that prefer flavonoids as substrates have been characterized from liverworts. Here, we cloned two CCoAOMT genes, MpalOMT2 and MpalOMT3, from the liverwort Marchantia paleacea. MpalOMT3 has a second ATG codon downstream and the truncated version that lacks 11 amino acids was named MpalOMT3-Tr. Phylogenetic analysis placed MpalOMT3 at the root of the clade with true CCoAOMTs from vascular plants and placed MpalOMT2 between the CCoAOMT and CCoAOMT-like proteins. Recombinant OMTs methylated caffeoyl CoA, phenylpropanoids, and flavonoids containing two or three vicinal hydroxyl groups. MpalOMT3 showed higher catalytic activity for phenylpropanoids than MpalOMT2, but MpalOMT2 showed more promiscuous towards eriodictyol and myricetin. The lignin content in Arabidopsis thaliana stems increased with constitutive heterologous expression of MpalOMT3-Tr, but not MpalOMT2. Subcellular localization experiments indicated that the N-terminus of MpalOMT3 probably served as a chloroplast transit peptide and inhibited its enzymatic activity. Combining the phylogenetic analysis and functional characterization, we conclude that the liverwort M. paleacea harbors true CCoAOMT and CCoAOMT-like genes.

Abstract
Respiratory diseases, especially the pandemic of respiratory infectious diseases and refractory chronic lung diseases, remain a key clinical issue and research hot spot due to their high prevalence rates and poor prognosis. In this review, we aimed to summarize the recent advances in the therapeutic effects and molecular mechanisms of key common bioactive compounds from Chinese herbal medicine. Based on the theories of traditional Chinese medicine related to lung diseases, we searched several electronic databases to determine the high-frequency Chinese medicines in clinical application. The active compounds and metabolites from the selected medicines were identified using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database (TCMSP) by analyzing oral bioavailability and drug similarity index. Then, the pharmacological effects and molecular mechanisms of the selected bioactive compounds in the viral and bacterial infections, inflammation, acute lung injury (ALI), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, and lung cancer were summarized. We found that 31 bioactive compounds from the selected 10 common Chinese herbs, such as epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), kaempferol, isorhamnetin, quercetin, and β-sitosterol, can mainly regulate NF-κB, Nrf2/HO-1, NLRP3, TGF-β/Smad, MAPK, and PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathways to inhibit infection, inflammation, extracellular matrix deposition, and tumor growth in a series of lung-related diseases. This review provides novel perspectives on the preclinical study and clinical application of Chinese herbal medicines and their bioactive compounds against respiratory diseases.

Abstract
AIM Benzo[a]pyrene [BP] is one of the major carcinogenic precursors of cigarette smoke that primary affects the lung at its first proximity. The goal of the current research was to elucidate new mechanisms underlying the tumorigenic impact of oral BP in the lung of mice, with focus on immunosuppressive effects and cancer stemming properties. METHODS Female albino mice (n = 44) were divided into 2 groups: normal control and BP group. BP was administered orally to mice (50 mg/kg body weight), twice a week for four weeks in succession. At the end of experiment (22 weeks), gene expression were measured for transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4), programmed death ligand 1(PD-L1), forkhead box protein P3 (FOXP3) and interleukin 12 (IL-12) and CD83+, CD8+ and CD166+ cell percentage were measured in lung tissue. RESULTS The results indicated the tumorigenic role of BP in the lung which was evidenced by histopathological examination. BP group also showed immunosuppressive role which evidenced by increased expression of lung TGF-β, CTLA-4, PD-L1, FOXP3 genes and decreased expression of lung IL-12 gene compared with normal control group. BP group also showed decreased CD83+ cells, CD8+ cells and increased number of CD166+ cells. CONCLUSION Our findings indicated that BP has immunosuppressive role in lung cancer besides increasing the percentage of cancer stem like cells.

Ameliorating effect of lipo-ATRA treatment on the expression of TIG3 and its suppressing effect on PPARγ gene expression in lung cancer animal model. Mol Cell Biochem 2019; 460:105-112.

Abstract
This study aimed to find out the molecular therapeutic effect of lipo-ATRA on tumour suppressor TIG3 and cell proliferative biomarker PPARγ in B (a) P-induced lung cancer model. In RT-PCR study, ATRA- and lipo-ATRA-treated mice samples showed relatively higher TIG3 expression and decreased PPARγ expression (Band density) than cancer control. Among treatments, lipo-ATRA showed vital effect than free ATRA by enhancing TIG3 and decreasing PPARγ. The qPCR results also showed significant (p ≤ 0.05) difference in both TIG3 and PPAR (RQ values of TIG3, lipo-ATRA 23.85 ± 1.29; free ATRA 10.43 ± 1.81 and for PPARγ, lipo-ATRA 4.707 ± 1.21; free ATRA 15.78 ± 2.34). From this, we conclude that liposomal ATRA formulation is most preferable for prolonged delivery of ATRA at targeted site to favour molecular action. It implies that the therapeutic effect of lipo-ATRA in lung cancer was exhibited by ameliorating the TIG3 expression and by suppressing the expression of PPARγ.

Abstract
Natural polyphenolic compounds of grapes and their seeds are thought to be therapeutic adjuvants in a variety of diseases, including cancer prevention. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of grape phenolic compounds on the regulation of cancer-mediated immune suppression. Laricitrin exhibits the greatest potential to ameliorate the suppressive effects of lung cancer on dendritic cells’ (DCs’) differentiation, maturation and function. Human lung cancer A549 and CL1-5 cells change the phenotype of DCs that express to high levels of IL-10 and prime T cells towards an immune suppression type-2 response (Th2). Laricitrin treatment stimulated DC differentiation and maturation in the condition media of cancer cells, a finding supported by monocyte marker CD14's disappearance and DC marker CD1a's upregulation. Laricitrin decreases expression of IL-10 in cancer-conditioned DCs, and subsequently switches CD4+ T cell response from Th2 to Th1 in vitro and in vivo. Reversal of laricitrin on lung cancer-induced DCs’ paralysis was via inhibiting the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). Laricitrin also potentiated the anticancer activity of cisplatin in mouse models. Thus, laricitrin could be an efficacious immunoadjuvant and have a synergistic effect when combined with chemotherapy.

Abstract
This study was aimed to examine the prognostic value of preoperative neutrophils, platelets, lymphocytes, monocytes and calculated ratios in patients with laryngeal squamous cell cancer (LSCC). From January 2007 to December 2011, 979 patients with LSCC were enrolled in our study. Preoperative neutrophils, platelets, lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) were analyzed. Besides well-established clinicopathological prognostic factors, we evaluated the independent prognostic relevance of these hematological parameters by Cox regression models in disease-free survival (DFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). We found patients in the highest tertile of NLR (>2.40), PLR (>111.00) were at significantly higher risk of DFS and CSS (P<0.05) compared with those in the lowest tertile after multivariate analysis, whereas presenting significantly higher risk in the lowest tertile of lymphocytes (<1.60×109/L) and LMR (<3.50). Additionally, the tertile category of NLR as well as PLR increased and lymphocytes as well as LMR decreased in shorter DFS and CSS by the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test. In conclusion, this study indicated that preoperative lymphocytes, NLR, PLR and LMR were significantly associated with LSCC progression, DFS and CSS, and these hematological parameters could be considered independent prognostic values for patients with LSCC.
