Project description:Gallic acid (GA) is a natural phenolic compound with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antineoplastic properties. Previous studies also revealed that GA supplementation inhibit the decline of rat embryonic and rejuvenate the immune function in D-gal-induced aging accelerated mice. However, the role of GA in regulating senescence of human premature aging stem cells is unknown. We have demonstrated that GA showed beneficial effects in alleviating human mesenchyme stem cell(hMSC) senescence: (1) GA alleviated senescence by promoting stem cell self-renewal ability and down-regulating the expression of aging markers, including P16 and P21, in Werner syndrome(WS) hMSCs; (2) High levels of reactive oxygen species in total cell as well as mitochondria were both rescued by GA treatment; (3) GA also maintained epigenetic features, enhanced cell stemness, and improved mitochondrial homeostasis in WS hMSCs. Our data provide substantial evidence supporting that GA is a promising candidate agent to

Project description:Alzheimer's disease is the most common age-associated neurodegenerative disorder and the most frequent form of dementia in our society. Aging is a complex biological process concurrently shaped by genetic, dietary and environmental factors and natural compounds are emerging for their beneficial effects against age-related disorders such as cancer or cardiovascular diseases. Besides their antioxidant activity often described in simple model organisms, the molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of different dietary compounds remain largely unknown. Here, we exploited widely established C. elegans models for AD to test the effects of different natural compounds in vivo and focused on mechanistic aspects of one of them, quercetin, using complementary systems and assays. We show that quercetin has evolutionarily conserved beneficial effects against AD pathology: it prevents Aβ-induced detrimental effects in different C. elegans AD models and it reduces Aβ-secretion in mammalian cells. Mechanistically, we found that the beneficial effects of quercetin are mediated by autophagy-dependent reduced expression of Abl tyrosine kinase. In turn, autophagy is required upon Abl suppression to mediate quercetin’s protective effects against Aβ toxicity. Our data support the power of C. elegans as an in vivo model to investigate therapeutic options for Alzheimer disease.

Project description:Glatiramer acetate (GA; Copaxone), is a complex mixture of synthetic polypeptides approved for treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS). GA is an altered peptide ligand (APL) of myelin basic protein (MBP), an encephalitic autoantigen implicated in MS. GA induces GA-reactive T cells, which upregulate expression of anti-inflammatory and neurotrophic substances in the CNS. The antigenic sequences in glatiramoids cannot be completely characterized; nevertheless, differences among them can cause toxicity. We conducted microarray analyses to determine whether gene expression by GA-reactive lymphocytes from mouse spleens could differentiate GA from other glatiramoids. Expression of 135 genes was unique to cells reactivated by GA vs by intentionally altered GA and other glatiramoids. Significantly (p<0.01) altered expression of 207 genes was observed by cells reactivated by GA vs purported generic GA. Some APLs of MBP have caused serious adverse effects in MS patients. The influence of altered gene expression on glatiramoid safety warrants further investigation. Glatiramoid samples for SPL cell activation were grouped into four categories: 1) Verified GA, which included GA-RS (22 samples) and GA drug product (GA-DP, 34 samples from 30 batches) manufactured by Teva; 2) Deliberately Modified GA (DM-GA; 9 samples), which included glatiramoids made by Teva that were similar to GA but modified in a variety of ways: prepared with different ingredients (e.g., missing a constituent amino acid); prepared with the same amino acids in the same molar ratio as GA, but with defined amino acid sequences and different molecular weights (referred to as peptide markers TV-35 and TV-66); synthesized by a different process (e.g., changing acetolytic cleavage conditions, alternating polymerization initiator); exposed to destabilizing conditions (e.g., degradation by acid, base, and heat); 3) Unverified Glatiramoids, which included 4 samples, TV-5010 and 3 glatiramoids synthesized to be similar to GA but not manufactured using the Teva-patented manufacturing process; and 4) Unverified Generic GA, which included samples from 2 glatiramoids (M-bM-^@M-^\GA-NM-bM-^@M-^] 11 samples from 5 different batches, and 2 M-bM-^@M-^\GA-CM-bM-^@M-^] samples from a single batch) marketed as generic GA manufactured by companies other than Teva .

Project description:Glyceraldehyde (GA) is a 3-carbon monosaccharide that can be present in cells as a by-product of fructose metabolism. Bruno Mendel and Otto Warburg showed that the application of GA to cancer cells inhibits glycolysis and their growth. This phenomenon was extensively studied up until the 1970’s. However, the molecular mechanism by which this occurred was not clarified. We describe a novel multi-modal mechanism by which the L-isomer of GA (L-GA) inhibits cancer cell growth. L-GA induces significant changes in the metabolic profile, promotes oxidative stress and hinders nucleotide biosynthesis. GC-MS and 13C-labelling was employed to measure the flow of carbon through glycolytic intermediates under L-GA treatment. It was found that L-GA is a potent inhibitor of glycolysis due to its proposed targeting of NAD(H)-dependent reactions. This results in growth inhibition, apoptosis and a redox crisis in the cancer cell. It was confirmed that the redox mechanisms were modulated via L-GA by proteomic analysis. This elucidated a specific subset of proteins harbouring oxidoreductase and antioxidant activity. Analysis of nucleotide pools in L-GA treated cells depicted a remarkable and previously unreported phenotype. Nucleotide biosynthesis in neuroblastoma cells is significantly inhibited upon L-GA treatment. Through the application of the antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine in conjunction with L-GA, metabolic inhibition was partially relieved. We present novel evidence for the multi-modal mechanism of L-GA action in neuroblastoma cells. Specifically, a simple sugar that inhibits the growth of cancer via dysregulating the fragile homeostatic environment inherent to the cancerous cell.

Project description:Gambogic acid (GA) is an anti-cancer agent in phase Ⅱb clinical trial in China. In HeLa cells, GA inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and apoptosis, as showed by results of MTT assay and flow cytometric analysis. Possible target-related proteins of GA were searched using comparative proteomic analysis (2-DE) and 9 proteins at early (3 h) stage together with 9 proteins at late (24 h) stage were found. Vimentin was the only target-related protein found at both early and late stage. Results of both 2-DE analysis and Western blotting assay suggested cleavage of vimentin induced by GA. MS/MS analysis of cleaved vimentin peptides indicated possible cleavage sites of vimentin at or near aa51 and aa425. Results of targeted proteomic analysis showed that GA induced change in phosphorylation state of the vimentin head domain (aa51-64). Caspase inhibitors could not abrogate GA-induced cleavage of vimentin. Over-expression of vimentin ameliorated cytotoxicity of GA in HeLa cells. The GA-activated signal transduction, from p38 MAPK, heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), vimentin, dysfunction of cytoskeleton, to cell death, was predicted and then confirmed. Results of animal study showed that GA treatment inhibited tumor growth in HeLa tumor-bearing mice and cleavage of vimentin could be observed in tumor xenografts of GA-treated animals. Results of immunohistochemical staining also showed down-regulated vimentin level in tumor xenografts of GA-treated animals. Furthermore, compared with cytotoxicity of GA in HeLa cells, cytotoxicity of GA in MCF-7 cells with low level of vimentin was weaker while cytotoxicity of GA in MG-63 cells with high level of vimentin was stronger. These results indicated the important role of vimentin in the cytotoxicity of GA. The effects of GA on vimentin and other epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers provided suggestion for better usage of GA in clinic.
