Neurosci Lett 2024; 819:137577. [PMID: 38072030 DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2023.137577] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
AdipoRon (AR) can exert antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory effects by maintaining mitochondrial structure and function. The present study was designed to explore whether AR protects the auditory cells from cisplatin-induced damage and, if so, to probe the possible mechanisms underlying its action on this type of cells. Cell viability and apoptosis in House Ear Institute-Organization of Corti 1 (HEI-OC1 cells) and mouse cochlea hair cells (HCs) were detected by CCK8 and immunofluorescence. The expressions of apoptosis-related proteins (cleaved caspase-3 and Bcl-2), adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR 1) and the key factors relevant to mitochondrial biogenesis（SIRT1 and TFAM）were determined by Western blot and immunofluorescence. Changes in apoptotic rate and expression of SIRT1 and TFAM after silencing of AdipoR 1 (AdipoR 1-siRNA) in HEI-OC1 cells were measured by flow cytometry and Western blot. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were evaluated by MitoSox red staining. We found that 30 μM cisplatin exposure induced severe cellular damage, which resulted from activation of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Cisplatin decreased the expression of AdipoR 1, SIRT1, and TFAM proteins, leading to impaired mitochondrial biogenesis and increased mitochondrial ROS production. 10 μM AR pre-treatment enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis, decreased mitochondrial ROS levels, alleviated imbalances in the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, thus reducing cisplatin-induced apoptosis. Taken together, this work reveals that AR exerts anti-apoptotic effects, possibly via regulating mitochondrial biogenesis and function. Interestingly, AR might possess the promising potential to be a novel drug for the prevention and/ or treatment of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity.

Abstract
There is substantial experimental and clinical interest in providing effective ways to both prevent and slow the onset of hearing loss. Auditory hair cells, which occur along the basilar membrane of the cochlea, often lose functionality due to age-related biological alterations, as well as from exposure to high decibel sounds affecting a diminished/damaged auditory sensitivity. Hearing loss is also seen to take place due to neuronal degeneration before or following hair cell destruction/loss. A strategy is necessary to protect hair cells and XIII cranial/auditory nerve cells prior to injury and throughout aging. Within this context, it was proposed that cochlea neural stem cells may be protected from such aging and environmental/noise insults via the ingestion of protective dietary supplements. Of particular importance is that these studies typically display a hormetic-like biphasic dose-response pattern that prevents the occurrence of auditory cell damage induced by various model chemical toxins, such as cisplatin. Likewise, the hormetic dose-response also enhances the occurrence of cochlear neural cell viability, proliferation, and differentiation. These findings are particularly important since they confirmed a strong dose dependency of the significant beneficial effects (which is biphasic), whilst having a low-dose beneficial response, whereas extensive exposures may become ineffective and/or potentially harmful. According to hormesis, phytochemicals including polyphenols exhibit biphasic dose-response effects activating low-dose antioxidant signaling pathways, resulting in the upregulation of vitagenes, a group of genes involved in preserving cellular homeostasis during stressful conditions. Modulation of the vitagene network through polyphenols increases cellular resilience mechanisms, thus impacting neurological disorder pathophysiology. Here, we aimed to explore polyphenols targeting the NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway to neuroprotective and therapeutic strategies that can potentially reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, thus preventing auditory hair cell and XIII cranial/auditory nerve cell degeneration. Furthermore, we explored techniques to enhance their bioavailability and efficacy.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2023; 1870:119437.

Abstract
5,7-Dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (D4M) is attributed to free radical scavenging effects, with wide application for anti-oxidation. This work aimed to assess D4M's impact on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity. The cell viability was estimated with CCK-8 assay. Apoptosis was detected by the Annexin V-FITC and PI assay. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was determined by MitoSOX-Red and CellROX-Green probes. Mitochondrial membrane potential was analyzed with TMRM staining. Immunofluorescence was utilized for hair cells and spiral ganglion neuron detection. Apoptosis-associated proteins were assessed by cleaved caspase-3 and TUNEL staining. These results showed that D4M pretreatment protected hair cells from cisplatin-induced damage, increased cell viability, and decreased apoptosis in House Ear Institute-Organ of Corti1 (HEI-OC1) cells and neonatal mouse cochlear explants. D4M significantly inhibited cisplatin-induced mitochondrial apoptosis and reduced ROS accumulation. In addition, the protective effect of D4M on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity was also confirmed in cochlear hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons in neonatal mice. Mechanistic studies showed that D4M markedly downregulated p-JNK and elevated the expression ratio of p-FoxO1/FoxO1, thereby reducing cisplatin-induced caspase-dependent apoptosis. Meanwhile, D4M-related protection of HEI-OC1 cells was significantly blunted by JNK signaling induction with anisomycin. This study supports the possibility that D4M may be used as a new compound to prevent cisplatin-related hearing loss.

Novel Application of Eupatilin for Effectively Attenuating Cisplatin-Induced Auditory Hair Cell Death via Mitochondrial Apoptosis Pathway. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:1090034. [PMID: 35082962 PMCID: PMC8786471 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1090034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2021] [Revised: 11/05/2021] [Accepted: 11/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Eupatilin (5,7-dihydroxy-3′,4′,6-trimethoxyflavone) is a pharmacologically active flavone that has been isolated from a variety of medicinal plants and possesses a number of pharmacological properties. This study evaluates the antioxidant and antiapoptotic effects of eupatilin on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity using in vitro and in vivo models including HEI-OC1 cells, cochlear hair cells, and zebrafish. Employing a CCK8 assay and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining, we found that eupatilin significantly alleviated cisplatin-induced apoptosis and increased hair cell viability. The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was evaluated by CellROX green and MitoSOX Red staining. The results showed that eupatilin possesses antioxidant activity. MitoTracker Red staining indicated that eupatilin remarkably decreased mitochondrial damage. Furthermore, we demonstrated that eupatilin protects hair cells from cisplatin-induced damage. Mechanistic studies in cisplatin-induced HEI-OC1 cells revealed that eupatilin promoted Bcl-2 expression, downregulated Bax expression, reversed the increase in caspase-3 and PARP activity, and reduced the expression of phosphorylated p38 and JNK. Our data suggest a novel role for eupatilin as a protective agent against ototoxic drug-induced hair cell apoptosis by inhibiting ROS generation and modulating mitochondrial-related apoptosis.
