Quassinoid analogs exert potent antitumor activity via reversible protein biosynthesis inhibition in human colorectal cancer
Biochem Pharmacol. 2023 Apr 26:115564. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115564. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCellular protein synthesis is accelerated in human colorectal cancer (CRC), and high expression of protein synthesis regulators in CRC patients is associated with poor prognosis. Thus, inhibition of protein synthesis may be an effective therapeutic strategy for CRC. We previously demonstrated that the quassinoid bruceantinol (BOL) had antitumor activity against CRC. Herein, potent tumor growth suppression (>80%) and STAT3 inhibition was observed in two different mouse models following BOL administration. Loss of body and...

CCL17 drives fibroblast activation in the progression of pulmonary fibrosis by enhancing the TGF- β/Smad signaling
Biochem Pharmacol. 2023 Mar 2;210:115475. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115475. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a type of fatal respiratory diseases with limited therapeutic options and poor prognosis. The chemokine CCL17 plays crucial roles in the pathogenesis of immune diseases. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) CCL17 levels are significantly higher in patients with idiopathic PF (IPF) than in healthy volunteers. However, the source and function of CCL17 in PF remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated that the levels of CCL17 were increased in the lungs of IPF patients and mice with bleomycin (BLM)-induc...

Aucubin protects mouse cochlear hair cells from cisplatin-induced ototoxicity via activation of the PI3K/AKT/STAT3 pathway
In conclusion, we identified an otoprotective effect of aucubin. Therefore, aucubin could be used to prevent cisplatin-induced ototoxicity.PMID:36720354 | DOI:10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115440

MiR-133a-3p/Sirt1 epigenetic programming mediates hypercholesterolemia susceptibility in female offspring induced by prenatal dexamethasone exposure
In conclusion, PDE can cause persistent enhancement of hepatic cholesterol synthesis function before and after birth through GR/miR-133a-3p/Sirt1 pathway, eventually leading to increased hypercholesterolemia susceptibility in female offspring rats.PMID:36326533 | DOI:10.1016/j.bcp.2022.115306

Blockage of MyD88 in cardiomyocytes alleviates cardiac inflammation and cardiomyopathy in experimental diabetic mice
In this study, we first found that MyD88 expression was increased in cardiomyocytes of diabetic mouse hearts. In cultured cardiomyocytes, MyD88 inhibition either by siRNA or by small-molecular inhibitor LM8 markedly blocked TLR4-MyD88 complex formation, reduced pro-inflammatory mitogen-activated protein kinases/nuclear factor-κB (MAPKs/NF-κB) cascade activation and decreased pro-inflammatory cytokine expression under high glucose condition. Moreover, pharmacologic inhibition of MyD88 by LM8 showed significantly anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertrophic and anti-fibrotic effects in the hearts of both type 1 and type 2 diabetic...
