Abstract
Cordyceps militaris (L.) Link (C. militaris) contains various beneficial substances, including polysaccharides (galactomannan), nucleotides (adenosine and cordycepin), cordycepic acid, amino acids, and sterols (ergosterol and beta-sitosterol). It also contains other essential nutrients, such as protein, vitamins (E, K, B1, B2, and B12), and minerals (potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, and selenium). Due to the numerous health benefits of supplements and products containing C. militaris extract, their popularity has increased. However, the immunostimulant effect of C. militaris remains unclear. Therefore, this study developed a functional beverage from the submerged fermentation of C. militaris (FCM) and aimed to investigate the potential of FCM in healthy male and female volunteers in Phayao Province, Thailand. This study provides essential information for the development of healthy drink products. Healthy men and women were provided either FCM containing 2.85 mg of cordycepin or placebo for 8 weeks (n = 10 for each gender). The immune cell markers, immunoglobulins, and safety parameters were assessed initially at baseline and at 4 and 8 weeks. The NK cell activity markedly increased in the male FCM group from baseline (p = 0.049) to 4 weeks after receiving FCM. Compared with those in the placebo group, the NK activity in women who received FCM for 8 weeks significantly increased (p = 0.023) from baseline. Within-group analysis revealed that the IL-1β levels were markedly reduced in the male FCM group (p = 0.049). Furthermore, the IL-6 levels decreased from baseline in the female FCM group (p = 0.047). The blood sugar, lipid, and safety indices were not different between the experimental groups. FCM can potentially be developed as an immune-boosting supplement without liver, kidney, or blood component toxicity.

Abstract
Background Azithromycin (AZM) is a macrolide antibiotic that exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-viral infection properties by enhancing type-I interferon (IFN-I) responses. The stimulator of interferon genes (STING) can directly induce IFN-I production. However, elevated IFN-I induces auto-immune phenotypes such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The effects of AZM and STING on the production of IFN-I are unclear. Objective Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the role of AZM and STING on IFN-I responses in macrophages. Methods RAW 264.7 macrophages were treated with AZM with and without a STING-agonist (DMXAA), and the maturation of macrophages was determined using flow cytometry. Gene expression and pro-inflammatory cytokines were analyzed using qPCR and ELISA, respectively. Moreover, protein expression was investigated using Western blot assays and immunofluorescence. Results Our results show that AZM significantly induced M1 phenotypes, promoting surface molecule expansion of CD80 and MHC-II and production of IL-6 and TNF-α cytokines on DMXAA-stimulated macrophages. Furthermore, we found that AZM-increased mRNA levels of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) could be due to the high expression of STNG-TBK1 signaling in the presence of DMXAA. Conclusion Our data suggest that AZM enhancement of IFN-I responses was STING dependent in DMXAA-stimulated macrophages. These data underline a novel approach to AZM action-mediated STING-TBK1 signaling for regulating IFN-I responses and may further augment the scientific basis and potential use of AZM in clinical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Red rice bran extract (RRBE) contains many biologically active substances exerting antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. AIM To evaluate the anticancer potential of RRBE in human colon cancer cells and its mutagenic/antimutagenic effects on nonmalignant cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS The cytotoxic effect of RRBE was determined by trypan blue exclusion in HCT116, HT29 cell lines and a non-cancerous HEK293 cell line, and its antiproliferative effect using MTS and colony formation assay. The apoptosis induction was evaluated using ELISA, and the apoptotic rate and cell cycle progression were assessed by flow cytometry. The mutagenic/ antimutagenic potential of RRBE was analyzed by micronucleus assay in the V79 cell line. RESULTS RRBE caused a dose-dependent reduction of cell viability in colon cancer cells and showed a limited cytotoxicity against HEK293 cells. The treatment with RRBE suppressed proliferation of HCT116 and HT29 cells and induced apoptosis as evidenced by the increased DNA fragmentation and the apoptotic cell counts. Furthermore, RRBE treatment significantly increased the number of cells at the G2/M phase triggering the arrest of the cell cycle in colon cancer cells. Interestingly, RRBE did not increase the micronucleus frequency in V79 cells but reduced the micronucleus formation caused by mitomycin C. CONCLUSION RRBE effectively suppressed proliferation, induced apoptosis, and caused a cell cycle arrest in human colon cancer cells while being non-mutagenic and exerting antimutagenic effects in vitro.

Abstract
Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) has been shown to possess anti-angiogenic activities. This study aims to investigate the effects of THC on adipose angiogenesis and expression of angiogenic factors that occurs in 60% high-fat diet-induced obese mice. Male ICR mice were randomly divided into 3 groups: mice fed with a low-fat diet (LFD group); mice fed with very high fat diet (VHFD group), and mice fed with VHFD supplemented with THC (300 mg/kg/day orally) (VHFD+THC treated group) for 6 weeks. Body weight (BW), food intake, fasting blood sugar (FBS), lipid profiles and visceral fats weight (VF) were measured. The microvascular density (MVD), TNF-α, VEGF, MMP-2, and MMP-9 expressions were evaluated. The VHFD group had significantly increased total cholesterol, triglyceride, food intake, BW, VF, VF/BW ratio, adipocyte size and the number of crown-liked structures as compared to LFD group. THC supplementation markedly reduced these parameters and adipocyte hypertrophy and inflammation in white adipose tissues. MVD, TNF-α, VEGF, MMP-2, and MMP-9 were over-expressed in the VHFD group. However, THC supplementation decreased MVD and reduced expression of TNF-α, VEGF, MMP-2, and MMP-9. In conclusion, THC suppressed angiogenesis in adipose tissue by the downregulation of TNF-α, VEGF, MMP-2, and MMP-9. With its effects on lipid metabolism as well as on food consumption, THC could contribute to lower visceral fat and body weight. Overall, our study demonstrated the potential benefit of THC in mitigating obesity and associated metabolic disorders along with elucidated the suppression of adipose angiogenesis as one of its underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Mitochondrial DNA leakage leads to inflammatory responses via endosome activation. This study aims to evaluate whether the perennial grass water extract (Pogonatherum panicum) ameliorate mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) leakage. MATERIALS/METHODS The major bioactive constituents of P. paniceum (PPW) were investigated by high-performance liquid chromatography, after which their antioxidant activities were assessed. In addition, RAW 264.7 macrophages were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide, resulting in mitochondrial damage. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to examine the gene expression and cytokines. RESULTS Our results showed that PPW extract-treated activated cells significantly decrease reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide levels by reducing the p22phox and iNOS expression and lowering cytokine-encoding genes, including IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, PG-E2 and IFN-γ relative to the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated macrophages. Furthermore, we observed that LPS enhanced the mtDNA leaked into the cytoplasm, increasing the transcription of Tlr9 and signaling both MyD88/Irf7-dependent interferon and MyD88/NF-κb p65-dependent inflammatory cytokine mRNA expression but which was alleviated in the presence of PPW extract. CONCLUSIONS Our data show that PPW extract has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities by facilitating mtDNA leakage and lowering the Tlr9 expression and signaling activation.

Abstract
Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) are emerging environmental pollutants, having a major ecotoxicological concern to humans and many other biotas, especially aquatic animals. The physical and chemical compositions of MPs majorly determine their ecotoxicological risks. However, comprehensive knowledge about the exposure routes and toxic effects of MPs/NPs on animals and human health is not fully known. Here this review focuses on the potential exposure routes, human health impacts, and toxicity response of MPs/NPs on human health, through reviewing the literature on studies conducted in different in vitro and in vivo experiments on organisms, human cells, and the human experimental exposure models. The current literature review has highlighted ingestion, inhalation, and dermal contacts as major exposure routes of MPs/NPs. Further, oxidative stress, cytotoxicity, DNA damage, inflammation, immune response, neurotoxicity, metabolic disruption, and ultimately affecting digestive systems, immunology, respiratory systems, reproductive systems, and nervous systems, as serious health consequences.
