Project description:Pretreated human follicular fluid was prepared for targeted metabolomics experiments. For this purpose, 12-point standard calibration curves in the respective range with reference material were measured, and the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) for each neurotransmitter under investigation were calculated. LC-MS/MS was conducted by an ultra-performance liquid chromatography method using a Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.7 µm, Waters, USA). The Waters acquisition UPLC was coupled to an API 4000 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (AB SCIEX, USA). The mobile phase A buffer was 10% methanol in water (containing 0.1% formic acid), and the mobile phase B buffer was 50% methanol in water (containing 0.1% formic acid). The LC gradient elution was at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min at 0-8.0 min and 0.4 ml/min at 8.0-17.5 min, then 10%-30% B at 0-6.5 min; 30%-100% B at 6.5-7 min; 100% B at 7-14min; and 100%-10% B at 14-17.5min. The injection volume was 5 µl and the column temperature was set to 40 °C. Twenty-three metabolites (Ach: Acetylcholine chloride; Gln: Glutamine; Glu: Glutamate; His: L-Histidine; NE: norepinephrine; Tyr:Tyrosine; Trp:Tryptophan; Kyn: Kynurenine; GABA: 4-Aminobutyric acid;HisA:Histamine; PA:Picolinic acid;TyrA:Tyramine;DA:Hydroxytyramine hydrochloride; TrpA:Tryptamine;5-HT:Serotonin hydrochloride;E:Adrenaline hydrochloride;KynA:Kynurenic acid;5-HIAA:5-Hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid;DOPA:Levodopa;XA:Xanthurenic acid;VWA:Vanillymandelic Acid; 5-HTTP:5-Hydroxytryptophan;MT:Melatonine)were simultaneously reported in LC-MS/MS multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Data analysis was performed with Analyst 1.6 software.

Project description:Female mice aged 6-7 weeks old were infected with the T. cruzi H1 strain. Mice were randomly divided into groups with 15 animals in each, with age matched naïve mice included as controls. Approximately 75 days post infection, mice were randomly divided into groups and treated with different treatment combinations: BNZ + Tc24 therapeutic vaccine + the STAT-3 inhibitor TTI-101, BNZ + Tc24 vaccine, and BNZ or TTI alone. Mice were humanely euthanized at 50, 75, 120 or 142 days post infection (DPI), and hearts samples were collected, divided into left atrium (LA), right atrium (RA), left ventricle top (LVT), left ventricle bottom (LVB), right ventricle top (RVT), right ventricle bottom (RVB). Heart tissue samples were extracted by 1:1 (v/v) methanol to water for aqueous phase and 3:1 (v/v) dichloromethane to methanol for organic phase. LC-MS/MS data acquisition was performed on a Q Exactive Plus Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer coupled to a Thermo Scientific Vanquish UHPLC with 1.7 um 100 Å Kinetex C8 column at 40°C. Mobile phase A was water with 0.1% (v/v) formic acid and mobile phase B was acetonitrile with 0.1% (v/v) formic acid.

Project description:The industrial solvent trichloroethylene (TCE) produces a marked formic aciduria in male and female F344 rats and in male C57Bl mice following single or multiple dosing. The two major metabolites of TCE formed by cytochromes P450 metabolism also produce formic aciduria. The quantity of formic acid excreted was about 2-fold higher following trichloroacetic acid (TCA) compared to trichloroethanol (TCE-OH) or TCE, at similar doses of 16mg/kg/day for 3 days. Prior treatment of male F344 rats with 1-aminobenzotriazole a cytochrome P450 inhibitor, followed by TCE, completely prevented the formic aciduria but had no effect on formic acid excretion produced by TCA, suggesting TCA is the proximate metabolite producing this response. Metabolism of formic acid is largely controlled by the vitamin B12 –dependent methionine salvage pathway. Transcriptomic analysis on the liver of rats dosed with 16mg/kg/day TCE for three days when compared to control liver showed nine differentially expressed genes, of particular interest was the down regulation of LMBRD1 involved in the conversion of vitamin B12 into one of two molecules, methylcobalamin (CH3Cbl) or S-adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl). Administration of CH3Cbl or hydroxocobalamin for 3 days to rats given a single dose of TCE, lead to a reduction in formic acid in their urine. Similarly, rats given TCE followed by L-methionine for 3 days excreted less formic acid in their urine. These findings suggest an effect on the vitamin B12 –dependent methionine salvage pathway. This was supported by the finding that hepatic methionine synthase, which converts homocysteine to methionine, was inhibited following three large daily dose of TCE. We propose that TCE metabolites interact with the vitamin B12 -dependent methionine salvage pathway leading to tetrahydrofolate deficiency and increased excretion of formic acid in rat urine.

Project description:We have shown in a previous study that the intake of persimmon peel (PP) extract altered hepatic gene expression of insulin signaling and enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptors in nonobese type 2 diabetic Goto–Kakizaki rats. We also showed the alteration of gene expression in fatty acid synthesis and metabolism. To evaluate the effect of PP extract on obese diabetic KK-Ay mice, we fed them a diet mixed with 0.1% of the extract for 8 weeks. The plasma total ketone bodies level of the treated mice were significantly lower than that of the untreated mice. The hepatic gene expression profiles of treated mice indicated upregulation of fatty acid biosynthesis-associated gene expression. Hepatic nonesterified palmitic acid content was higher in treated mice than in untreated mice. These results suggest that the intake of PP extract enhances hepatic fatty acid biosynthesis of KK-Ay mice, reducing their plasma total ketone bodies level.

Project description:Colitis is the common pathological lesion of inflammatory bowel diseases, the major chronic inflammatory diseases of intestinal tracts in humans. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic effects of ginger extract and its component zingerone in mice with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis. Mice were administered with TNBS and/or various amounts of ginger and zingerone by an intrarectal route. The severity of colitis was evaluated by colonic weight/length ratio, macroscopic lesion, and histological examination. The mechanisms of ginger and zingerone were further elucidated by DNA microarray, ex vivo imaging, and immunohistochemical staining. Our data showed that treatment with ginger extract and zingerone ameliorated TNBS-induced colonic inflammation and injury in a dose-dependent manner. Pathway analysis of ginger- and zingerone-regulated gene expression profiles showed that ginger and zingerone significantly regulated cytokine-related pathways. Network analysis showed that nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) were key molecules involved in the expression of ginger- and zingerone-affected genes. Ex vivo imaging and immunohistochemical staining further verified that ginger and zingerone suppressed TNBS-induced NF-κB activation and decreased the NF-κB and IL-1β protein levels in the colon. In conclusion, our data showed that ginger improved the TNBS-induced colitis in mice via modulation of NF-κB activity and IL-1β signaling pathway. Moreover, zingerone might be the active component of ginger responsible for the amelioration of colitis induced by TNBS. A total of 24 mice was randomly divided into four groups of six mice: mock, mice were given with 0.1 ml of 50% ethanol; TNBS, mice were given with 250 mg/kg TNBS in 0.1 ml of 50% ethanol; TNBS/ginger, mice were administered with mixtures containing 250 mg/kg TNBS and various amounts of ginger extract in 0.1 ml of 50% ethanol; TNBS/zingerone, mice were given with mixtures containing 250 mg/kg TNBS and various amounts of zingerone in 0.1 ml of 50% ethanol. Mice were sacrificed seven days later for histochemical staining, RNA extraction, and ex vivo imaging.

Project description:Samples were subjected to LC–MS analysis using a dual pressure LTQ-Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) connected to an electrospray ion source (Thermo Fisher Scientific) as recently described (PMID: 23017020). Peptide separation was carried out on an EASY nLC-1000 system (Thermo Fisher Scientific) equipped with a RP-HPLC column (75 μm × 30 cm) packed in-house with C18 resin (ReproSil-Pur C18–AQ, 1.9 μm resin, Dr. Maisch GmbH). A step-wise gradient from 95% solvent A (0.1% formic acid) and 5% solvent B (80% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid) to 50% solvent B over 60 min at a flow rate of 0.2 μl/min was used. Data acquisition mode was set to obtain one high resolution MS scan in the FT part of the mass spectrometer at a resolution of 240,000 full width at half-maximum (at m/z 400) followed by 20 MS/MS scans (TOP20) in the linear ion trap of the most intense ions using rapid scan speed. Unassigned and singly charged ions were excluded from analysis. Dynamic exclusion duration was set to 30 seconds.
