Harnessing Cyanobacteria's Bioactive Potential: A Sustainable Strategy for Antioxidant Production.

ABSTRACT: Unsaturated diacylglycerols are a class of antioxidant compounds with the potential to positively impact human health. Their ability to combat oxidative stress through radical scavenger activity underscores their significance in the context of preventive and therapeutic strategies. In this paper we highlight the role of Anabaena flos-aquae as a producer of unsaturated mono and diacylglycerols, and then demonstrate the antioxidant activity of its methanolic extract, which has as its main components a variety of acylglycerol analogues. This finding was revealed using a sustainable strategy in which the One Strain Many Compounds (OSMAC) cultivation in microscale was coupled with a bioinformatic approach to analyze a large dataset of mass spectrometry data using the molecular networking analyses. This strategy reduces time and costs, avoiding long and expensive steps of purification and obtaining informative data on the metabolic composition of the extracts. This study highlights the role of Anabaena as a sustainable and green source of novel bioactive compounds.

Project description:BackgroundPaeoniae Radix Rubra (PRR) has been used widely to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis in China clinical practice owing to its extensive pharmacological effects. However, the "quality markers" (Q-markers) of the antioxidant effects remains unknown.ObjectTo explore the Q-markers of antioxidant activity based on multiple strategies, which would provide reference for the quality evaluation of PRR based on specific pharmacodynamic-oriented.MethodsFirstly, the "fingerprint" profiles of 15 batches of PRR were acquired and identified by ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF MS/MS) and the common peaks extracted. Meanwhile, the MTT assay was used to evaluate the effect of 15 batches of PRR on H2O2-induced oxidative stress in HT-22 cells. The antioxidant activity of PRR was investigated simultaneously by superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) commercial kits. The relationship between common peaks and antioxidant indexes were constructed by grey relational analysis (GRA) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) for the identification of preselected Q-markers. Secondly, experimental verification was conducted to investigate the protective effect of the preliminary components on HT-22 cells undergoing oxidative stress. Finally, for the further validation of effectiveness of antioxidant Q-markers, network pharmacology was applied to explore potential targets, and the molecular docking technology was used to value the binding ability of the potential active components of PRR to the antioxidant targets.ResultsThirty-seven common peaks from 15 batches of PRR were identified qualitatively by UHPLC-Q-TOF MS/MS. The MTT assay showed that PRR could reduce the oxidative damage induced by H2O2 upon HT-22 cells according to the index of MDA, SOD and GSH. Eight potential antioxidant components were screened by spectrum-effect correlation analysis: paeoniflorin, galloylpaeoniflorin, albiflorin, 1,2,3,4,6-o-pentagalloylglucose, benzoylpaeoniflorin, pinocembrin, oleanic acid, and isorhamnetin-3-o-nehesperidine. Each of these preliminary components showed significant protections on cellular oxidative stress (P < 0.05). Interleukin-6 (IL-6), protein kinase B (AKT1), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) were predicted to be the major potential targets of PRR, and the good binding ability were presented between the potential active components of PRR and each target as a whole.ConclusionEight components were identified as the antioxidant Q-markers of PRR based on an integrated multimodal strategy.
