AMPK negatively regulates RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation by controlling oxidative stress
This study aimed to clarify the mechanistic connection between AMPK and osteoclast differentiation, and the potential role of AMPK in the anti-resorptive effects of several phytochemicals. We found that receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation, osteoclastic gene expression, and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and NF-κB were promoted in cells transfected with AMPK siRNA. AMPK knockdown led to defective synthesis of heme oxygenase-1, an antioxidant enzyme, and the upstream mediator, nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2. Furthermore, ...

STAT3 signaling promotes cardiac injury by upregulating NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy and ferroptosis in high-fat-diet fed mice
In this study, we found that oleic acid/palmitic acid (OA/PA) increased the level of ferroptotic events including iron and ROS accumulation, upregulation of PTGS2 mRNA and protein levels, reduced SOD and GSH levels, and significant mitochondrial damage in H9C2 cells, which could be reversed by the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1). Intriguingly, we found that the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine mitigated OA/PA-induced ferritin downregulation, iron overload and ferroptosis. OA/PA increased the protein level of NCOA4. Knockdown of NCOA4 by SiRNA partly reversed the reduction in ferritin, mitigated iron overload...

Caveolin-1 alleviates acetaminophen-induced vascular oxidative stress and inflammation in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
In conclusion, our findings confirmed that CAV1 exerts a protective effect against vascular injury by inhibiting oxidative stress and inflammation through the PKC/MAPK pathway. Therefore, restoration of CAV1 may have clinical benefits in reducing APAP-induced vascular damage in NAFLD patients.PMID:36596386 | DOI:10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2022.12.095

NLRP3 inflammasome mediate palmitate-induced endothelial dysfunction
This study aimed to investigate the role of NLRP3 (NOD-like receptor pyrin domain containing-3) inflammasome in FFA induced endothelial dysfunction.Main methodsHUVECs were transfected with NLRP3 siRNA and then stimulated with LPS and palmitate. C57 BL/6J mice transfected with NLRP3 Lenti-Virus were fed with a high-fat diet (HFD). The levels of NLRP3 inflammasome, AMPKα (AMP-activated protein kinase), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and the activity of the insulin signal pathway, in endothelial cells were determined via Western blotting. Endothelial function was determined by measuring the level of endothelium-dep...

Dihomo-γ-Linolenic Acid Inhibits Growth of Xenograft Tumors in Mice Bearing Human Pancreatic Cancer Cells (BxPC-3) Transfected with Delta-5-Desaturase shRNA
In this study, we have further investigated the anti-tumor effects of D5D-knockdown and the resulting intensified COX-2-catalyzed DGLA peroxidation in subcutaneous xenograft tumors. Four-week old female nude mice (Jackson Laboratory, J:Nu-007850) were injected with human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3 or its D5D knockdown counterpart (via shRNA), followed by 4-week treatments of: vehicle control, DGLA supplementation (8 mg/mouse, twice a week), gemcitabine (30 mg/kg, twice a week), and a combination of DGLA and gemcitabine. In D5D-knockdown tumors, DGLA supplementation promoted 8-HOA formation to a threshold ...

High circulatory leptin mediated NOX-2-peroxynitrite-miR21 axis activate mesangial cells and promotes renal inflammatory pathology in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Publication date: July 2018Source: Redox Biology, Volume 17Author(s): Firas Alhasson, Ratanesh Kumar Seth, Sutapa Sarkar, Diana A. Kimono, Muayad S. Albadrani, Diptadip Dattaroy, Varun Chandrashekaran, Geoffrey I. Scott, Samir Raychoudhury, Mitzi Nagarkatti, Prakash Nagarkatti, Anna Mae Diehl, Saurabh ChatterjeeAbstractHigh circulatory insulin and leptin followed by underlying inflammation are often ascribed to the ectopic manifestations in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) but the exact molecular pathways remain unclear. We have shown previously that CYP2E1-mediated oxidative stress and circulating leptin in NAFLD...
