Abstract
IMPORTANCE Eukaryotic hosts have defense mechanisms that may disrupt molecular transactions along the pathogen's chromosome through excessive DNA damage. Given that DNA damage stalls RNA polymerase (RNAP) thereby increasing mutagenesis, investigating how host defense mechanisms impact the movement of the transcription machinery on the pathogen chromosome is crucial. Using a new methodology we developed, we elucidated the dynamics of RNAP movement and association with the chromosome in the pathogenic bacterium Salmonella enterica during infection. We found that dynamics of RNAP movement on the chromosome change significantly during infection genome-wide, including at regions that encode for key virulence genes. In particular, we found that there is pervasive RNAP backtracking on the bacterial chromosome during infections and that anti-backtracking factors are critical for pathogenesis. Altogether, our results suggest that, interestingly, the host environment can promote the development of antimicrobial resistance and hypervirulence as stalled RNAPs can accelerate evolution through increased mutagenesis.

Functional Characterization of Salmonella Typhimurium Encoded YciF, a Domain of Unknown Function (DUF892) Family Protein, and Its Role in Protection during Bile and Oxidative Stress. J Bacteriol 2023; 205:e0005923.

Abstract
YciF (STM14_2092) is a member of the domain of unknown function (DUF892) family. It is an uncharacterized protein involved in stress responses in Salmonella Typhimurium. In this study, we investigated the significance of YciF and its DUF892 domain during bile and oxidative stress responses of S. Typhimurium. Purified wild-type YciF forms higher order oligomers, binds to iron, and displays ferroxidase activity. Studies on the site-specific mutants revealed that the ferroxidase activity of YciF is dependent on the two metal binding sites present within the DUF892 domain. Transcriptional analysis displayed that the ΔcspE strain, which has compromised expression of YciF, encounters iron toxicity due to dysregulation of iron homeostasis in the presence of bile. Utilizing this observation, we demonstrate that the bile mediated iron toxicity in ΔcspE causes lethality, primarily through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Expression of wild-type YciF, but not the three mutants of the DUF892 domain, in ΔcspE alleviate ROS in the presence of bile. Our results establish the role of YciF as a ferroxidase that can sequester excess iron in the cellular milieu to counter ROS-associated cell death. This is the first report of biochemical and functional characterization of a member of the DUF892 family. IMPORTANCE The DUF892 domain has a wide taxonomic distribution encompassing several bacterial pathogens. This domain belongs to the ferritin-like superfamily; however, it has not been biochemically and functionally characterized. This is the first report of characterization of a member of this family. In this study, we demonstrate that S. Typhimurium YciF is an iron binding protein with ferroxidase activity, which is dependent on the metal binding sites present within the DUF892 domain. YciF combats iron toxicity and oxidative damage caused due to exposure to bile. The functional characterization of YciF delineates the significance of the DUF892 domain in bacteria. In addition, our studies on S. Typhimurium bile stress response divulged the importance of comprehensive iron homeostasis and ROS in bacteria.

Abstract
Pathogenic bacteria and their eukaryotic hosts are in a constant arms race. Hosts have numerous defense mechanisms at their disposal that not only challenge the bacterial invaders, but have the potential to disrupt molecular transactions along the bacterial chromosome. However, it is unclear how the host impacts association of proteins with the bacterial chromosome at the molecular level during infection. This is partially due to the lack of a method that could detect these events in pathogens while they are within host cells. We developed and optimized a system capable of mapping and measuring levels of bacterial proteins associated with the chromosome while they are actively infecting the host (referred to as PIC-seq). Here, we focused on the dynamics of RNA polymerase (RNAP) movement and association with the chromosome in the pathogenic bacterium Salmonella enterica as a model system during infection. Using PIC-seq, we found that RNAP association patterns with the chromosome change during infection genome-wide, including at regions that encode for key virulence genes. Importantly, we found that infection of a host significantly increases RNAP backtracking on the bacterial chromosome. RNAP backtracking is the most common form of disruption to RNAP progress on the chromosome. Interestingly, we found that the resolution of backtracked RNAPs via the anti-backtracking factors GreA and GreB is critical for pathogenesis, revealing a new class of virulence genes. Altogether, our results strongly suggest that infection of a host significantly impacts transcription by disrupting RNAP movement on the chromosome within the bacterial pathogen. The increased backtracking events have important implications not only for efficient transcription, but also for mutation rates as stalled RNAPs increase the levels of mutagenesis.

Abstract
Platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) are being intensively explored as efficient nanozymes due to their biocompatibility coupled with excellent catalytic activities, which make them potential candidates as antimicrobial agents. Their antibacterial efficacy and the precise mechanism of action are, however, still unclear. In this framework, we investigated the oxidative stress response of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium cells when exposed to 5 nm citrate coated PtNPs. Notably, by performing a systematic investigation that combines the use of a knock-out mutant strain 12023 HpxF- with impaired response to ROS (ΔkatE ΔkatG ΔkatN ΔahpCF ΔtsaA) and its respective wild-type strain, growth experiments in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, and untargeted metabolomic profiling, we were able to disclose the involved antibacterial mechanisms. Interestingly, PtNPs exerted their biocidal effect mainly through their oxidase-like properties, though with limited antibacterial activity on the wild-type strain at high particle concentrations and significantly stronger action on the mutant strain, especially in aerobic conditions. The untargeted metabolomic analyses of oxidative stress markers revealed that 12023 HpxF- was not able to cope with PtNPs-based oxidative stress as efficiently as the parental strain. The observed oxidase-induced effects comprise bacterial membrane damage as well as lipid, glutathione and DNA oxidation. On the other hand, in the presence of exogenous bactericidal agents such as hydrogen peroxide, PtNPs display a protective ROS scavenging action, due to their efficient peroxidase mimicking activity. This mechanistic study can contribute to clarifying the mechanisms of PtNPs and their potential applications as antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
The formation of endospores has been considered the unique survival and transmission mode of sporulating Firmicutes due to the exceptional resistance and persistence of this bacterial form. However, nonsporulated bacteria (Spo-) were reported at the early stages following the death of a host infected with Bacillus thuringiensis, an entomopathogenic sporulating bacterium. Here, we investigated the characteristics of the bacterial population in the late stages of an infection in the B. thuringiensis/Galleria mellonella infection model. Using fluorescent reporters and molecular markers coupled to flow cytometry, we demonstrated that the Spo- cells persist and constitute about half of the population 2 weeks post-infection (p.i.). Protein synthesis and growth recovery assays indicated that they are in a metabolically slowed-down state. These bacteria were extremely resistant to the insect cadaver environment, which did not support growth of in vitro-grown vegetative cells and spores. A transcriptomic analysis of this subpopulation at 7 days p.i. revealed a signature profile of this state, and the expression analysis of individual genes at the cell level showed that more bacteria mount an oxidative stress response as their survival time increases, in agreement with the increase of the free radical level in the host cadaver and in the number of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-producing bacteria. Altogether, these data show for the first time that nonsporulated bacteria are able to survive for a prolonged period of time in the context of an infection and indicate that they engage in a profound adaptation process that leads to their persistence in the host cadaver. IMPORTANCE Bacillus thuringiensis is an entomopathogenic bacterium widely used as a biopesticide. It belongs to the Bacillus cereus group, comprising the foodborne pathogen B. cereus sensu stricto and the anthrax agent Bacillus anthracis. Like other Firmicutes when they encounter harsh conditions, these Gram-positive bacteria can form dormant cells called spores. Due to its highly resistant nature, the spore was considered the unique mode of long-term survival, eclipsing any other form of persistence. Breaking this paradigm, we observed that B. thuringiensis was able to persist in its host cadaver in a nonsporulated form for at least 14 days. Our results show that these bacteria survived in the cadaver environment, which proved hostile for actively growing bacteria by engaging in a profound adaptation process. Studying this facet of the life cycle of a sporulating bacterium provides new fundamental knowledge and might lead to the development of strategies to combat sporulating pathogenic species.

Abstract
Streptococcus suis is an important zoonotic pathogen. Due to the indiscriminate use of macrolides, S. suis has developed a high level of drug resistance, which has led to a serious threat to human and animal health. However, it takes a long time to develop new antibacterial drugs. Therefore, we consider the perspective of bacterial physiological metabolism to ensure that the development of bacterial resistance to existing drugs is alleviated and bacterial susceptibility to drugs is restored. In the present study, an untargeted metabolomics analysis showed that the serine catabolic pathway was inhibited in drug-resistant S. suis. The addition of l-serine restored the fungicidal effect of macrolides on S. suisin vivo and in vitro by enhancing the serine metabolic pathway. Further studies showed that l-serine, stimulated by its serine catabolic pathway, inhibited intracellular H2S production, reduced Fe-S cluster production, and restored the normal occurrence of the Fenton reaction in cells. It also attenuated the production of glutathione, an important marker of the intracellular oxidation-reduction reaction. All these phenomena eventually contribute to an increase in the level of reactive oxygen species, which leads to intracellular DNA damage and bacterial death. Our study provides a potential new approach for the treatment of diseases caused by drug-resistant S. suis. IMPORTANCE The emergence of antimicrobial resistance is a global challenge. However, new drug development efforts consume considerable resources and time, and alleviating the pressure on existing drugs is the focus of our work. We investigated the mechanism of action of l-serine supplementation in restoring the use of macrolides in S. suis, based on the role of the serine catabolic pathway on reactive oxygen species levels and oxidative stress in S. suis. This pathway provides a theoretical basis for the rational use of macrolides in clinical practice and also identifies a possible target for restoring drug sensitivity in S. suis.

Abstract
As a facultative intracellular pathogen, Salmonella Enteritidis must develop an effective oxidative stress response to survive exposure to reactive oxygen species within the host. To study this defense mechanism, we carried out a series of oxidative stress assays in parallel with a comparative transcriptome analyses using a next generation sequencing approach. It was shown that the expression of 45% of the genome was significantly altered upon exposure to H2O2. Quantitatively the most significant (≥100 fold) gene expression alterations were observed among genes encoding the sulfur utilization factor of Fe-S cluster formation and iron homeostasis. Our data point out the multifaceted nature of the oxidative stress response. It includes not only numerous mechanisms of DNA and protein repair and redox homeostasis, but also the key genes associated with osmotic stress, multidrug efflux, stringent stress, decrease influx of small molecules, manganese and phosphate starvation stress responses. Importantly, this study revealed that oxidatively stressed S. Enteritidis cells simultaneously repressed key motility encoding genes and induced a wide range of adhesin- and salmonellae-essential virulence-encoding genes, that are critical for the biofilm formation and intracellular survival, respectively. This finding indicates a potential intrinsic link between oxidative stress and pathogenicity in non-typhoidal Salmonella that needs to be empirically evaluated.

Abstract
Salmonella Enteritidis is a major cause of foodborne gastroenteritis and is thus a persistent threat to global public health. The acid adaptation response helps Salmonella survive exposure to gastric environment during ingestion. In a previous study we highlighted the damage caused to cell membrane and the regulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in S. Enteritidis. In this study, we applied both physiologic and iTRAQ analyses to explore the regulatory mechanism of acid resistance in Salmonella. It was found that after S. Enteritidis was subject to a 1 h period of acid adaptation at pH 5.5, an additional 1 h period of acid shock stress at pH 3.0 caused less Salmonella cell death than in non-acid adapted Salmonella cells. Although there were no significant differences between adapted and non-adapted cells in terms of cell membrane damage (e.g., membrane permeability or lipid peroxidation) after 30 min, intracellular ROS level in acid adapted cells was dramatically reduced compared to that in non-acid adapted cells, indicating that acid adaption promoted less ROS generation or increased the ability of ROS scavenging with little reduction in the integrity of the cell membrane. These findings were confirmed via an iTRAQ analysis. The adapted cells were shown to trigger incorporation of exogenous long-chain fatty acids into the cellular membrane, resulting in a different membrane lipid profile and promoting survival rate under acid stress. S. Enteritidis experiences oxidative damage and iron deficiency under acid stress, but after acid adaption S. Enteritidis cells were able to balance their concentrations of intracellular ROS. Specifically, SodAB consumed the free protons responsible for forming reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) and KatE protected cells from the toxic effects of ROIs. Additionally, acid-labile proteins released free unbound iron promoting ferroptotic metabolism, and NADH reduced GSSH to G-SH, protecting cells from acid/oxidative stress.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is an important foodborne pathogen that causes serious and extensive food contamination as well as disease and death worldwide. Considering the increasing severity of antibiotic resistance, antibiotic alternatives are urgently needed. As a natural biocide and a component of some essential oils from herbs, thymol is capable of killing various bacteria through a potentially unique mechanism, although the targets of thymol have not been completely elucidated. In this study, the variation in the whole proteome of Salmonella after thymol stress was evaluated using the SWATH multiplex technique. The strain Salmonella Typhimurium CVCC541 was treated with a sublethal concentration (75 μg/mL) of thymol, which rapidly increased the permeability of bacterial membranes at the tested concentration. Thymol destroyed the integrity of the bacterial membrane, as observed by transmission electron microscopy. The proteomes of the treated and untreated cells were characterized after an 8-h treatment. The proteomic analysis of thymol-treated cells indicated that 144 proteins exhibited upregulation or downregulation compared with the control cells, particularly those involved in cellular structure and metabolism. The results of this study showed that thymol may play an antimicrobial role in altering the membrane permeability, virulence change, and antioxidant response of Salmonella Typhimurium. The results of the present study provide an improved understanding of the proteomic response of Salmonella Typhimurium to thymol stress, including the identification of promising targets for the future exploration of innovative approaches to control Salmonella Typhimurium.

Abstract
A link between periodontitis and atherothrombosis has been highlighted. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of Porphyromonas gingivalis on endothelial microvesicles (EMVPg) shedding and their contribution to endothelial inflammation. Endothelial cells (EC) were infected with P. gingivalis (MOI = 100) for 24 h. EMVPg were isolated and their concentration was evaluated by prothrombinase assay. EMVPg were significantly increased in comparison with EMVCtrl shedded by unstimulated cells. While EMVCtrl from untreated EC had no effect, whereas, the proportion of apoptotic EC was increased by 30 nM EMVPg and viability was decreased down to 25%, a value elicited by P. gingivalis alone. Moreover, high concentration of EMVPg (30 nM) induced a pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative cell response including up-regulation of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 as well as an altered expression of iNOS and eNOS at both mRNA and protein level. An increase of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 mRNA expression (4.5 folds and 3 folds respectively (p < 0.05 vs untreated) was also observed after EMVPg (30 nM) stimulation whereas P. gingivalis infection was less effective, suggesting a specific triggering by EMVPg. Kinasome analysis demonstrated the specific effect induced by EMVPg on main pro-inflammatory pathways including JNK/AKT and STAT. EMVPg are effective pro-inflammatory effectors that may have detrimental effect on vascular homeostasis and should be considered as potential autocrine and paracrine effectors involved in the link between periodontitis and atherothrombosis.

Abstract
Uncharacterized protein STY1099, encoded by the yccT gene, was previously identified as the most altered (i.e., upregulated) protein among the ZnO nanoparticle (NP) stimulon of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis. Here we combined various stress response-related assays with functional genetics, global transcriptomic and proteomic analyses to characterize the yccT gene and its STY1099 product. Exposure of S. enterica Enteritidis to H2O2 (i.e., hydrogen peroxide) resulted in a significant (p < 0.0001) upregulation of the yccT gene, whereas exposure to paraquat (i.e., superoxide) did not alter the expression of the yccT gene. The ∆yccT mutant of S. enterica Enteritidis exposed to 0.75 mM H2O2, showed significantly reduced (p < 0.05) viability compared to the wild type strain. Further, comparative transcriptome analyses supported by Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay revealed that STY1099 protein plays a role in redox homeostasis during the peroxide stress assault via involvement in the processes of respiratory nitrate reductase, oxidoreductase activities, cellular uptake and stress response. In addition, we found that the STY1099 protein has the monopolar subcellular location and that it interacts with key cell division proteins, MinD, and FtsH, as well as with a rod shape-determining protein MerB.

[PMID: 31569771 PMCID: PMC6836049 DOI: 10.3390/md17100552] [Citation(s) in RCA: 64] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2019] [Revised: 09/22/2019] [Accepted: 09/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Fucoxanthin (Fx) is a natural extract from marine seaweed that has strong antioxidant activity and a variety of other bioactive effects. This study elucidated the protective mechanism of Fx on alcoholic liver injury. Administration of Fx was associated with lower pathological effects in liver tissue and lower serum marker concentrations for liver damage induced by alcohol. Fx also alleviated oxidative stress, and lowered the level of oxides and inflammation in liver tissue. Results indicate that Fx attenuated alcohol-induced oxidative lesions and inflammatory responses by activating the nuclear factor erythrocyte-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-mediated signaling pathway and down-regulating the expression of the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway, respectively. Our findings suggest that Fx can be developed as a potential nutraceutical for preventing alcohol-induced liver injury in the future.

Front Microbiol 2019; 10:762. [PMID: 31105651 PMCID: PMC6491894 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.00762] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2018] [Accepted: 03/26/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (STM) is exposed to reactive oxygen species (ROS) originating from aerobic respiration, antibiotic treatment, and the oxidative burst occurring inside the Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV) within host cells. ROS damage cellular compounds, thereby impairing bacterial viability and inducing cell death. Proteins containing iron–sulfur (Fe–S) clusters are particularly sensitive and become non-functional upon oxidation. Comprising five enzymes with Fe–S clusters, the TCA cycle is a pathway most sensitive toward ROS. To test the impact of ROS-mediated metabolic perturbations on bacterial physiology, we analyzed the proteomic and metabolic profile of STM deficient in both cytosolic superoxide dismutases (ΔsodAB). Incapable of detoxifying superoxide anions (SOA), endogenously generated SOA accumulate during growth. ΔsodAB showed reduced abundance of aconitases, leading to a metabolic profile similar to that of an aconitase-deficient strain (ΔacnAB). Furthermore, we determined a decreased expression of acnA in STM ΔsodAB. While intracellular proliferation in RAW264.7 macrophages and survival of methyl viologen treatment were not reduced for STM ΔacnAB, proteomic profiling revealed enhanced stress response. We conclude that ROS-mediated reduced expression and damage of aconitase does not impair bacterial viability or virulence, but might increase ROS amounts in STM, which reinforces the bactericidal effects of antibiotic treatment and immune responses of the host.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2019; 247:1100-1109. [PMID: 30823339 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2019.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2018] [Revised: 01/02/2019] [Accepted: 01/03/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The effects of fulvic acid (FA) and ions on mesophilic pathogenic bacteria survival under freeze-thaw (FT) stress in natural water and its resistant mechanisms are rarely understood. Therefore, survival patterns of Escherichia coli in river water added with various concentrations of FA or FA-ion under FT stress were studied in this work. Meanwhile, cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH), unit activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were determined and Escherichia coli morphologies were observed to explore the bacterial resistant mechanisms against FT stress. The results demonstrated that FT cycles significantly reduced bacterial quantities as sampling time, i.e. freeze-thaw cycle time increased. And the biggest reducing rate was observed after the first FT cycle in every system. Ttd values, time needed to reach detection limit under FT stress decreased under FT stress as FA was added into water, while the changes of ttd values were quite complicated when FA and various ions existed together. Generally, the ttd values of FA-cation systems exceeded that of FA system except FA-Ca2+ systems, but it was opposite for FA-anion systems. CSH was heightened after FT cycles and reached peak value at last sampling time in every system. Mechanical constraint from extracellular ice crystals and high CSH induced bacterial aggregation, which protect inner cells of aggregation from extracellular ice crystals. And the unit activities of SOD were significantly higher than those of CAT. Unit activities of SOD and CAT in large part of tested systems increased with sampling time under FT stress, which reduced reactive oxygen species produced from repeated FT cycles. Thus, these could improve the resistance of Escherichia coli to freeze-thaw stress and promote their survival. This work explored the survival pattern and strategy of Escherichia coli in natural water under FT stress.

Relation of the pdxB-usg- truA- dedA Operon and the truA Gene to the Intracellular Survival of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20020380.

Abstract
Salmonella is the genus of Gram-negative, facultative intracellular pathogens that have the ability to infect large numbers of animal or human hosts. The S. enterica usg gene is associated with intracellular survival based on ortholog screening and identification. In this study, the λ-Red recombination system was used to construct gene deletion strains and to investigate whether the identified operon was related to intracellular survival. The pdxB-usg-truA-dedA operon enhanced the intracellular survival of S. enterica by resisting the oxidative environment and the usg and truA gene expression was induced by H2O2. Moreover, the genes in this operon (except for dedA) contributed to virulence in mice. These findings indicate that the pdxB-usg-truA-dedA operon functions in resistance to oxidative environments during intracellular survival and is required for in vivo S. enterica virulence. This study provides insight toward a better understand of the characteristics of intracellular pathogens and explores the gene modules involved in their intracellular survival.

Abstract
The current study was designed to investigate the protective effect and possible mechanisms of umbelliferone (Umb) on liver injury in diabetic C57BL/KsJ-db/db (dbdb) mice. Mice were divided into five groups: wild-type mice group (WY), dbdb mice group, dbdb mice + Metformin (100 mg/kg) group, dbdb mice + Umb (20, 40 mg/kg) group. Blood glucose regulation was assessed by an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). At 28 days after drug administration, blood samples were obtained for the analysis of lipids and enzymes related to hepatic function, including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransaminase (AST) and total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG). Expression levels of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) and oxidative stress indicators (SOD and MDA) were measured with ELISA kit. The expressions of high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 (TLR4), Myd88, NF-κB, IκB, Nrf2, and HO-1 proteins were also evaluated by Western blotting analysis. The results showed that Umb significantly restored the blood glucose in OGTT, and inhibited the levels of insulin, TG, TC, as well as activities of ALT and AST. Moreover, Umb inhibited diabetic inflammation through down-regulating the expression of HMGB1, TLR4, NF-κB, and IκB. In addition, Umb alleviated oxidative damage in the liver by activating Nrf2-mediated signal pathway. These findings demonstrated that Umb exhibited protective effect against diabetic live injury, which may be through inhibiting HMGB1-induced inflammatory response and activating Nrf2-mediated antioxidant.

Abstract
Shanxi aged vinegar (SAV) is a typical fermented and antioxidant food, which has various health-promoting effects. This work aimed to explore the effects of SAV on alcohol-induced liver injury. A mice model of alcoholic liver injury was established to illuminate its potential mechanisms. All mice pretreated with SAV and then received an ethanol solution (50% w/v, 4.8 g/kg b.w.). The results showed that SAV ameliorated alcohol-induced histological changes and elevation of liver enzymes. SAV attenuated alcohol-induced oxidative stress by declining levels of hepatic oxidants, and restoring depletion of antioxidant enzyme activities in mice livers. Moreover, SAV alleviated alcohol-induced oxidative damage by activating nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-mediated signal pathway. In addition, SAV prevented alcohol-induced inflammation by suppressing lipopolysaccharide (LPS) level and activities of pro-inflammatory enzymes, and regulating inflammatory cytokines. SAV inhibited alcohol-induced inflammation through down-regulating the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated inflammatory response. The findings provide crucial evidence for elucidating the hepatoprotective mechanisms of SAV and encourage the future application of SAV as a functional food for liver protection.
