Abstract
Obesity and obesity-related disorders such as cancer, type 2 diabetes, and fatty liver have become a global health problem. It is well known that the primary cause of obesity is positive energy balance. In addition, obesity is the consequence of complex gene and environment interactions that result in excess calorie intake being stored as fat. However, it has been revealed that there are other factors contributing to the worsening of obesity. The presence of nontraditional risk factors, such as environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals, has recently been associated with obesity and comorbidities caused by obesity. The aim of this review was to examine the evidence and potential mechanisms for acrylamide having endocrine-disrupting properties contributing to obesity and obesity-related comorbidities. Recent studies have suggested that exposure to environmental endocrine-disrupting obesogens may be a risk factor contributing to the current obesity epidemic, and that one of these obesogens is acrylamide, an environmental and industrial compound produced by food processing, particularly the processing of foods such as potato chips, and coffee. In addition to the known harmful effects of acrylamide in humans and experimental animals, such as neurotoxicity, genotoxicity, and carcinogenicity, acrylamide also has an obesogenic effect. It has been shown in the literature to a limited extent that acrylamide may disrupt energy metabolism, lipid metabolism, adipogenesis, adipocyte differentiation, and various signaling pathways, and may exacerbate the disturbances in metabolic and biochemical parameters observed as a result of obesity. Acrylamide exerts its main potential obesogenic effects through body weight increase, worsening of the levels of obesity-related blood biomarkers, and induction of adipocyte differentiation and adipogenesis. Additional mechanisms may be discovered. Further experimental studies and prospective cohorts are needed, both to supplement existing knowledge about acrylamide and its effects, and to clarify its established relationship with obesity and its comorbidities.

Abstract
Acrylamide (ACR) is a common pollutant formed during food thermal processing such as frying, baking and roasting. ACR and its metabolites can cause various negative effects on organisms. To date, there have been some reviews summarizing the formation, absorption, detection and prevention of ACR, but there is no systematic summary on the mechanism of ACR-induced toxicity. In the past five years, the molecular mechanism for ACR-induced toxicity has been further explored and the detoxification of ACR by phytochemicals has been partly achieved. This review summarizes the ACR level in foods and its metabolic pathways, as well as highlights the mechanisms underlying ACR-induced toxicity and ACR detoxification by phytochemicals. It appears that oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, biochemical metabolism and gut microbiota disturbance are involved in various ACR-induced toxicities. In addition, the effects and possible action mechanisms of phytochemicals, including polyphenols, quinones, alkaloids, terpenoids, as well as vitamins and their analogs on ACR-induced toxicities are also discussed. This review provides potential therapeutic targets and strategies for addressing various ACR-induced toxicities in the future.

Front Nutr 2023; 10:1080825. [PMID: 36814509 PMCID: PMC9939636 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1080825] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) has rich nutritious and medicinal properties. It is widely consumed worldwide for the intervention of metabolism disorders, however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Acrylamide, a well-known toxic ingredient, mainly forms in high-temperature processed carbohydrate-rich food and causes disorders of gut microbiota and systemic metabolism. Methods This study explored the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of kiwifruit polysaccharides against acrylamide-induced disorders of gut microbiota and systemic metabolism by measuring the changes of gut microbiota and serum metabolites in mice. Results The results showed that kiwifruit polysaccharides remarkably alleviated acrylamide-induced toxicity in mice by improving their body features, histopathologic morphology of the liver, and decreased activities of liver function enzymes. Furthermore, the treatment restored the healthy gut microbiota of mice by improving the microbial diversity and abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus. Metabolomics analysis revealed the positive effects of kiwifruit polysaccharides mainly occurred through amino and bile acid-related metabolism pathways including nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, primary bile acid biosynthesis, and alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism. Additionally, correlation analysis indicated that Lactobacillus exhibited a highly significant correlation with critical metabolites of bile acid metabolism. Discussion Concisely, kiwifruit polysaccharides may protect against acrylamide-induced toxicity by regulating gut microbiota and metabolism.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 317:120765. [PMID: 36455769 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2022.120765] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2022] [Revised: 11/20/2022] [Accepted: 11/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Acetamiprid, a commonly detected neonicotinoid in aquatic ecosystems, poses a threat to aquatic non-target organisms. However, limited information is available on the toxic effects of acetamiprid on nontarget aquatic organisms. This study assessed the toxic effects of acetamiprid on Xenopus laevis, a typical model organism. The acute toxicity for 96 h revealed that acetamiprid had detrimental effects with a median lethal concentration (LC50) value of 64.48 mg/L. Toxicity assays, including oxidative stress, histopathology and untargeted metabolomics of acetamiprid to X. laevis, were performed for 28 d at 1/10 and 1/100 LC50 by studying the liver, which is the most antioxidant and major metabolic organ. The results demonstrated that acetamiprid exposure significantly changed the oxidant status of and caused histological damage to the liver. Furthermore, the untargeted metabolomic analysis based on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) identified the endogenous metabolites that were significantly altered. There were 89 differential metabolites compared to the controls: 64 in the 1/10 LC50 group, 47 in the 1/100 LC50 group, and 23 metabolites in the 1/10 LC50 group were the same as those in the 1/100 LC50 group. Sixteen pathways that were mainly associated with amino acid metabolism and lipid metabolism, such as sphingolipid metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism and histidine metabolism, were disrupted, revealing the hepatotoxic effects of acetamiprid on X. laevis at the molecular level. These findings provide crucial information for evaluating the aquatic risks of neonicotinoids.

Metabolomics strategy comprehensively unveils the effect of catechins intervention on the biomarkers of exposure to acrylamide and biomarkers of cardiometabolic risk. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2022; 169:107517. [PMID: 36191485 DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2022.107517] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Revised: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Polyphenolic antioxidants have been suggested to control the generation of acrylamide during thermal reactions. However, their role in protecting against the toxicity of acrylamide and the mechanism of action regarding profile alteration of biomarkers and metabolome remains unclear. A total of 65 adults were randomized into tea polyphenols (TP) and control groups and served with potato chips, which corresponded to an intake level of 12.6 μg/kg·bw of acrylamide, followed by capsules containing 200 mg, 100 mg or 50 mg TP, or equivalent placebo. Moreover, nontargeted urinary metabolomics analysis in acrylamide exposed rats was conducted using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography linked with a quadrupole-orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry. Our results showed that supplementation with catechins promoted the excretion of N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-l-cysteine in both humans and rats. We also found that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) or epicatechin (EC) intervention attenuated the ratio of hemoglobin adduct of glycidamide to hemoglobin adduct of acrylamide in rat blood. Metabolomics analysis revealed that EGCG/EC intervention regulated the differential expressed metabolites, including l-glutamic acid, 2-oxoglutarate, citric acid, and cysteinylglycine. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis further showed acrylamide-induced metabolic disorders were improved after EGCG/EC supplementation by glycolipid metabolism (alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, and d-Glutamine and d-glutamate metabolism) and energy metabolism (tricarboxylic acid cycle). Notably, the supplement use of EGCG prevented the cardiometabolic risk after exposure to acrylamide by mediating the phenylalanine and hippuric acid in phenylalanine metabolism. Here we showed the beneficial effect of catechins as major polyphenolic antioxidant ingredients on the toxicity of acrylamide by the changes in biomarkers from metabolic profile analysis based on human and animal studies. These findings shed light into the catechins as natural polyphenolic antioxidants that could be a therapeutic ingredient for preventing acrylamide-induced cardiometabolic toxicity.

Abstract
Gastric ulcer (GU) is a peptic disease with high morbidity and mortality rates affecting approximately 4% of the population throughout the world. Current therapies for GU are limited by the high relapse incidence and side effects. Therefore, novel effective antiulcer drugs are urgently needed. Ginsenosides have shown good anti-GU effects, and the major intestinal bacterial metabolite of ginsenosides, protopanaxatriol (PPT), is believed to be the active component. In this study, we evaluated the anti-GU effect of PPT in rats in an acetic acid-induced GU model. High (H-PPT) and medium (M-PPT) doses of PPT (20.0 and 10.0 mg/mg/day) significantly reduced the ulcer area and the ET-1, IL-6, EGF, SOD, MDA and TNF-α levels in serum were regulated by PPT in a dose-dependent manner. We also investigated the mechanisms of anti-GU activity of PPT based on metabolomics coupled with network pharmacology strategy. The result was that 16 biomarkers, 3 targets and 3 metabolomic pathways were identified as playing a vital role in the treatment of GU with PPT and were further validated by molecular docking. In this study, we have demonstrated that the integrated analysis of metabolomics and network pharmacology is an effective strategy for deciphering the complicated mechanisms of natural compounds.

Stimulating the expression of sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is beneficial to reduce acrylamide-induced nerve cell damage. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2022; 237:113511.

Abstract
Sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is an important signaling molecule for cell proliferation and survival. However, the role of SphK1 in acrylamide (ACR)-induced nerve injury remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role and potential mechanism of SphK1 in ACR-induced nerve injury. Liquid chromatography triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) were used to detect sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) content in serum and SphK1 content in whole blood from an occupational work group exposed to ACR compared to a non-exposed group. For in vitro experiments, SphK1 in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells was activated using SphK1-specific activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). Our research also utilized cell viability assays, flow cytometry, western blots, RT-qPCR and related protein detection to assess activity of the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. The results of the population study showed that the contents of SphK1 and S1P in the ACR-exposed occupational contact group were lower than in the non-exposed group. The results of in vitro experiments showed that expression of SphK1 decreased with the increase in ACR concentration. Activating SphK1 improved the survival rate of SH-SY5Y cells and decreased the apoptosis rate. Activating SphK1 in SH-SY5Y cells also regulated MAPK signaling, including enhancing the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases (ERK) and inhibiting the phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38. These results suggest that activating SphK1 can protect against nerve cell damage caused by ACR.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the metabolic perturbations and health impact of the co-accumulation of Maillard reaction products (MRPs), including acrylamide, harmane, and Nε-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), via serum biochemical and histopathological examinations as well as metabolomic analysis. Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with acrylamide (2 mg per kg body weight [bw]), harmane (1 mg per kg bw), CML (2 mg per kg bw), and combinations of these MRPs. Harmane did not cause adverse effects on the health of rats, whereas acrylamide and CML resulted in significantly (P < 0.05) decreased insulin sensitivity (HOMA-IR > 1), increased oxidative stress levels, and pathological injuries to the pancreas, liver, and gastrocnemius. Owing to the antioxidant and anti-diabetic activities of harmane, the effects of the combination of the MRPs on oxidative stress levels, blood glucose metabolism, and pathological injuries to the pancreas and gastrocnemius were relieved. However, new health problems, including pathological injury of the kidneys and increased cancer risk, were observed. Metabolomic analysis revealed that this may be related to the effects of MRPs on the arginine biosynthesis pathway, which resulted in the abnormal metabolism of fumaric acid and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. These results indicated that the mechanisms of the combined effect of MRPs and their effects on health cannot be predicted from the effects of individual MRPs.

Abstract
Acrylamide (ACR) has various effects on biological systems, including oxidative stress and its associated metabolic disorders. Previous research reports that plants growing at high altitude have a different profile of antioxidants. In the current report, the Taify pomegranate juice (TPJ) of the Taify pomegranate growing at the Taif region (high altitude), Saudi Arabia, was investigated for its protective activity from ACR-induced oxidative stress. Rats were treated with ACR, TPJ, or TPJ+ACR, and various assays, including blood chemistry, liver function biomarkers, gene expression of endogenous antioxidant enzymes, oxidative stress regulatory genes, inflammation biomarkers, and apoptosis, were estimated using biochemical, real-time PCR, histopathological, and immunohistochemical analysis. TPJ showed a protective function of ACR-induced alteration of AST, ALT, GGT, urea, total proteins, albumin, MDA, and NO. It also increased the level of the endogenous antioxidative enzymes, including SOD, catalase, and GSH. It showed anti-inflammatory activity by reduction the TNF-α, IL-6 secretion and the enhancing of IL-10 levels. At the gene expression level, TPJ upregulated the expression of endogenous antioxidant genes (SOD and catalase) and of antioxidant-regulating genes Nrf2 and HO-1; downregulated the expression of inflammatory genes TGF-β1, COX2, and the apoptotic gene caspase-3; and upregulated the expression of antiapoptotic gene Bcl2. At the histological level, TPJ showed a protective effect from the ACR-induced hepatic histological damage. Results of this study conclude that TPJ has a protective effect from ACR-induced oxidative stress and its associated metabolic alterations through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.

Abstract
The selection of solid phase extraction (SPE) columns in the pretreatment process plays a decisive role in the screening and quantification of pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs). As growing PPCPs have frequently been detected in the aquatic environment, it is a burdensome task through one-by-one recovery comparison to judge which column presents relatively ideal pretreatment results for PPCPs. In view of this, we developed a novel metabolomics-based screening method based on ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer (UHPLC-MS/MS) results to accurately, rapidly and comprehensively choose a suitable column from 5 different kinds to handle 64 PPCPs in two water environments (50 μg L-1/pH ≅ 7.0/pure water and 1 μg L-1/pH ≅ 7.0/reservoir water) through seeking 'biomarkers', for which multivariate and univariate analyses were adopted. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) play a crucial role in multivariate analysis, and the pairwise t-test and fold change judgement in univariate analysis. Each column group was fully separated from the other 4 groups in PCA and OPLS-DA plots, laying a foundation to distinguish 'biomarkers' between groups. The S-Plot, permutation and variable importance in projection (VIP) in OPLS-DA were employed to screen and identify 'biomarkers', which were further verified by a pairwise t-test and fold change judgement. Eventually, the 64 PPCPs as 'biomarkers' were divided into 5 groups, which correspond to 5 column groups, consistent with the findings of traditional PPCP recovery comparison, proving the validity of the metabolomics-based screening method. This novel method will exhibit greater superiority in choosing suitable SPE columns to handle a growing and larger number of PPCPs in water environments and beyond.

Abstract
Acrylamide has been reported as an important dietary risk factor from carbohydrate-rich processing food. However, systemic biological effects on the serum metabolomics induced by acrylamide have poorly been understood. In the present study, we evaluated the metabolic profiles in a rat serum after exposure to acrylamide using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography combined with quadrupole-orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry. The serum biochemical parameters of the treated and control groups were also determined using an automatic biochemical analyzer. Compared with the control group, 10 metabolites were significantly upregulated, including citric acid, d-(-)-fructose, gluconic acid, l-ascorbic acid 2-sulfate, 2-hydroxycinnamic acid, valine, l-phenylalanine, prolylleucine, succinic acid, and cholic acid, while 5 metabolites were significantly downregulated, including 3-hydroxybutyric acid, 4-oxoproline, 2,6-xylidine, 4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one, and N-ethyl-N-methylcathinone in the serum of 4-week-old rats exposed to acrylamide in the high-dose group (all P < 0.05). Importantly, acrylamide exposure affected metabolites mainly involved in the citrate cycle, valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosyntheses, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosyntheses, and pyruvate metabolism. These results suggested that exposure to acrylamide in rats exhibited marked systemic metabolic changes and affected the cardiovascular system. This study will provide a theoretical basis for exploring the toxic mechanism and will contribute to the diagnosis and prevention of acrylamide-induced cardiovascular toxicity.

Abstract
Acrylamide (AA) is an organic chemical widely existing in the public diet, especially in foods with high-temperature fried and baked starchy and may have various adverse health effects on organisms. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether quercetin plays a protective role in AA-induced element variation in rats. Rats were randomly divided into the control group, AA-treated group [5 mg/kg body weight (bw)], two dosages of quercetin-treated groups (10 and 50 mg/kg·bw, respectively), and two dosages of quercetin plus AA-treated groups. After a 16-week treatment, the serum samples of rats were collected. Serum elements were analyzed by using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) combined with multivariate statistical analysis, and antioxidant indices, lipid peroxidation indicator, as well as inflammatory biomarkers, were also detected. The accuracy and precision of the method were verified, and all the validated data are within the satisfactory range. The results showed that the levels of vanadium (V), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), cobalt (Co), and magnesium (Mg) in serum were significantly lower (p < 0.01), while serum calcium (Ca) level was significantly higher (p < 0.01) in AA-treated group compared with the control group. When high-dose quercetin was administered to rats combined with AA, a significant recovered effect for the above elements levels was observed compared with the AA-treated group. This study suggests that quercetin (50 mg/kg·bw) exerts a regulatory and protective role in AA-induced variation of serum elements via reducing oxidative stress and inhibiting inflammation.

Abstract
Acrylamide (AA) widely exists in human diet, which makes the public inevitably exposed to AA in daily life. Thisstudy aimed to investigatethe effects of quercetin on AA-induced hepatotoxicity utilizing metabolomics technology. Sixty male Wistar Rats were randomly divided into six groups: control, two dosages of quercetinintervention[10 and 50 mg/kgbody weight (bw)], AA-treated [5 mg/kgbw], and two dosages of quercetin combined with AA intervention. AA and quercetin were given to rats via drinking water and gavage respectively. After 16 weeksoftreatment, liver samples were collected for metabolomics analysis. 16metabolites were finally identified, the intensities of glutathione and NADP were decreased (p < 0.01), whereas the intensities of taurodeoxycholic acid, glycocholic acid, cholic acid, sphingosine, sphingosine1-phosphate, stearidonyl carnitine, N-undecanoylglycine, cholesterol, 13,14-Dihydro-15-keto-PGE2, LysoPE (20:5), LysoPE (18:3), LysoPC (20:4), and PC (22:5) were increased (p < 0.01) in the AA-treated groupthan those in the control group. After high-dose quercetin (50 mg/kgbw) plus AA treated concurrently to rats, the contents of the above 16 metabolites were significantly restored. This research showed that 50 mg/kg quercetin can alleviate AA-induced hepatotoxicity by reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory injury and regulating lipid metabolism.

Abstract
Thermal processing may generate toxicants. Carbon dots (CDs) from baked foods are toxic to cells; however, their molecular mechanism is still unexplored to date. The present study investigated the effects of CDs from roasted chicken breasts on normal rat kidney (NRK) and Caco-2 cells. The average size of CDs heated at 200 °C and 300 °C was about 2.8 nm and 1.2 nm, respectively. The element and surface groups of CDs were analyzed via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), respectively. It was confirmed that the CDs were internalized in lysosomes and induced apoptosis. Furthermore, Z-VAD-FMK did not decrease the rate of apoptosis. The acquired data further confirmed that these internalized CDs enlarged lysosomes, decreased the lysosomal enzyme degradation activity and increased the lysosomal pH value. An increase in the co-localization of RIPK3 in lysosomes in the CD-treated groups was observed. The CD treatment increased the protein level of receptor interaction protein 1 (RIPK1) and receptor interaction protein 3 (RIPK3). Overall, CDs from the baked chicken breast induced lysosomal membrane permeabilization and initiated lysosome-dependent cell death and necroptosis. Our results elucidated the toxic mechanism of CDs from baked chicken breast and implied that food thermal processing at a lower temperature is beneficial to human health.

Abstract
The health implications of acrylamide in food are a matter of concern based on toxicological studies in rodents, which showed that doses of acrylamide more than 100 times higher than those estimated to result from dietary exposure in humans are carcinogenic; however, the cancer types reported in rodents are species-specific, and whether these results can be extrapolated to humans is still in question. In fact, human epidemiological studies revealed a general lack of association between dietary acrylamide exposure and the incidence of different cancer types. Even occupational exposure to acrylamide, resulting in acrylamide exposure nearly 10 times higher than dietary exposure, did not increase tumor occurrence. Furthermore, the consumption of coffee, which is a main contributor of dietary acrylamide exposure, actually decreases the overall incidence of cancer in humans and afford global health benefits, increasing both lifespan and healthspan on ageing. This paradox clearly illustrates the risk of evaluating an individual molecule independently of its complete food matrix, which may have other components that completely override the effects of the considered molecule.

Abstract
Acrylamide (AA), classified as a probable carcinogen, can be neurotoxic, genotoxic, and can damage DNA. This study explored the ability of seabuckthorn berries juice (SBJ) to alleviate AA-induced toxic injury in rats. Twenty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group, AA group (40 mg/kg), AA + SBJ (40 mg/kg AA and 5 mL/kg SBJ), and AA + vitamin C (VC) group (positive control group, 40 mg/kg AA and 100 mg/kg VC). At the end of the experiment, rats in AA group showed a marked decrease in the rate of weight gain, hind extremity abduction, and ataxia. Obvious anomalies were seen in plasma biochemical parameters (P < 0.05), and different degrees of injury were observed upon histological examination of five tissues (hippocampus, cerebellum, liver, small intestine, and kidney). Compared to the control group, levels of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione were significantly decreased, while malondialdehyde was elevated (P < 0.05). SBJ treatment reduced the abnormal of behavior, hematological index, antioxidant enzyme, and tissue damage caused by AA in rats. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Seabuckthorn berries are wild berries rich in vitamin C and polyphenols, which have good antioxidant properties. In this experiment, SBJ has a significant alleviating effect on AA-induced oxidative damage in rats. Therefore, we speculate that SBJ may relieve the oxidative damage caused by diet or other forms of AA exposure in the general population. At the same time, this experiment also provides new ideas for alleviating AA-induced in vivo toxicity.

Abstract
Gastric ulcer (GU), a prevalent digestive disease, has a high incidence and is seriously harmful to human health. Finding a natural drug with a gastroprotective effect is needed. Ocotillol, the derivate of ocotillol-type saponins in the Panax genus, possesses good anti-inflammatory activity. The study aimed to investigate the gastroprotective effect of ocotillol on acetic acid-induced GU rats. The serum levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide (NO), the gastric mucosa levels of epidermal growth factor, superoxide dismutase and NO were assessed. Hematoxylin and eosin staining of gastric mucosa for pathological changes and immunohistochemical staining of ET-1, epidermal growth factor receptors and inducible nitric oxide synthase were evaluated. A UPLC-QTOF-MS-based serum metabolomics approach was applied to explore the latent mechanism. A total of 21 potential metabolites involved in 7 metabolic pathways were identified. The study helps us to understand the pathogenesis of GU and to provide a potential natural anti-ulcer agent.

Abstract
Acrylamide is widely found in baked and fried foods, produced in large amount in industries and is a prime component in toxicity. This review highlights various toxicities that are induced due to acrylamide, its proposed mode of action including oxidative stress cascades and ameliorative mechanisms using phytochemicals. Acrylamide formation, the mechanism of toxicity and the studies on the role of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunctions are elaborated in this paper. The various types of toxicities caused by Acrylamide and the modulation studies using phytochemicals that are carried out on various type of toxicity like neurotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, immune system, and skeletal system, as well as embryos have been explored. Lacunae of studies include the need to explore methods for reducing the formation of acrylamide in food while cooking and also better modulators for alleviating the toxicity and associated dysfunctions along with identifying its molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
Triptolide (TP) is one of the important active components in Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. F., which shows strong anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. However, a large number of literature studies have reported that TP is the main component causing nephrotoxicity, and the mechanism of nephrotoxicity has not yet been revealed. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to clarify the toxicity mechanism of TP. This study integrated network pharmacology and targeted metabolomics to reveal the nephrotoxicity mechanism of TP. Firstly, network pharmacology screening of 61 action targets related to TP induced nephrotoxicity, with 39 direct targets and 22 indirect targets, was performed. Subsequently, based on a large-scale protein-protein interaction (PPI) and molecular docking validation, the core targets were identified. Based on the above targets and enrichment analysis, the purine metabolism, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway and NF-κB signaling pathway were found play a pivotal role in TP-induced nephrotoxicity. Literature investigation showed that purine and pyrimidine metabolism pathways were closely related to kidney diseases. Therefore, by using the quantitative method of determining endogenous purine and pyrimidine previously established in the laboratory, a targeted metabolomic analysis of TP was carried out. Finally, six nephrotoxicity biomarkers, dihydroorotate, thymidine, 2-deoxyinosine, uric acid, adenosine and xanthine, were found. Combining the above results, the mechanisms underlying the nephrotoxicity of TP were speculated to be due to the over-consumption of xanthine and uric acid, which would result in enormous ROS being released in response to oxidative stress in the body. Furthermore, activation of the Toll-like receptor signalling pathway can promotes the phosphorylation of the downstream protein NF-κB and causes an inflammatory response that ultimately leads to nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE As a traditional Chinese medicine, Eleutherococcus senticosus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Maxim. leaves (ESL) can treat ischemic, neurasthenia, and hypertension diseases. However, only few studies have been conducted on the mechanism of action of ESL for ischemic disease treatment. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to discover the potential biomarkers in the rats caused by ischemic stroke and build a gene-enzyme-biomarker network to explore the mechanism of ESL treatment on ischemic stroke further. MATERIALS AND METHODS The urinary metabolomics strategy was developed by combining UPLC-Q-TOF/MS with multivariate data analysis. The gene-enzyme-biomarker network was built by Cytoscape 3.6.0 on the basis of the potential biomarkers filtered out via urinary metabolomic analysis. Then, the potential target enzymes of ESL in the treatment of ischemic stroke were selected for further validation analysis via the ELISA kits. RESULTS A total of 42 biomarkers associated with ischemic stroke have been identified, among which 38 species can be adjusted by ESL, including 5'-methylthioadenosine, prostaglandin A2, l-methionine, aldosterone, 11b-hydroxyprogesterone, prostaglandin E3, dehydroepiandrosterone, taurine, 5-methoxyindoleacetate, and p-cresol glucuronide. These biomarkers were involved in several metabolic pathways, including taurine and hypotaurine, arachidonic acid, cysteine and methionine, steroid hormone biosynthesis, tryptophan, and tyrosine metabolism pathways. The gene-enzyme-biomarker network was built, and three predicted target proteins, including cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), monoamine oxidase (MAO), and nitric oxide synthase (NOS), were selected as the potential target enzymes for ESL in ischemic stroke treatment. CONCLUSIONS All results showed that ESL can play a therapeutic role in treating ischemic stroke through different pathways. This study will provide an overall view of the mechanism underlying the action of ESL against ischemic stroke.

Abstract
One of the greatest challenges is to reduce malnutrition worldwide while promoting sustainable agricultural and food systems. This is a daunting task due to the constant growth of the population and the increasing demands by consumers for functional foods with higher nutritional values. Cereal grains are the most important dietary energy source globally; wheat, rice, and maize currently provide about half of the dietary energy source of humankind. In addition, the increase of celiac patients worldwide has motivated the development of gluten-free foods using alternative flour types to wheat such as rice, corn, cassava, soybean, and pseudocereals (amaranth, quinoa, and buckwheat). Amaranth and quinoa have been cultivated since ancient times and were two of the major crops of the Pre-Colombian cultures in Latin- America. In recent years and due to their well-known high nutritional value and potential health benefits, these pseudocereals have received much attention as ideal candidates for gluten-free products. The importance of exploiting these grains for the elaboration of healthy and nutritious foods has forced food producers to develop novel adequate strategies for their processing. Fermentation is one of the most antique and economical methods of producing and preserving foods and can be easily employed for cereal processing. The nutritional and functional quality of pseudocereals can be improved by fermentation using Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB). This review provides an overview on pseudocereal fermentation by LAB emphasizing the capacity of these bacteria to decrease antinutritional factors such as phytic acid, increase the functional value of phytochemicals such as phenolic compounds, and produce nutritional ingredients such as B-group vitamins. The numerous beneficial effects of lactic fermentation of pseudocereals can be exploited to design novel and healthier foods or grain ingredients destined to general population and especially to patients with coeliac disease.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of mangiferin, including its known antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects on sepsis-induced lung injury induced by a classical cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) models in mouse using a metabolomics approach. A total of 24 mice were randomly divided into four groups: the sham group was given saline before sham operation. The CLP group received the CLP operation only. HMF and LMF groups were given mangiferin treatment of high dose and low dose of mangiferin, respectively, before the CLP operation. One week after treatment, the mice were sacrificed and their lungs were collected for metabolomics analysis. We developed ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry to perform lung metabolic profiling analysis. With the methods of principal component analysis and partial least squares discriminant analysis, 58 potential metabolites associated with amino acid metabolism, purine metabolism, lipid metabolism and energy regulation were observed to be increased or reduced in HMF and LMF groups compared with the CLP group. Conclusively, our results suggest that mangiferin plays a protective role in the moderation of sepsis-induced lung injury through reducing oxidative stress, regulating lipid metabolism and energy biosynthesis.

Abstract
Modern studies have indicated Gardenia jasminoides Ellis (G. jasminoides) showed positive effect in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this study, 60 streptozotocin-induced T2DM rats were divided into four groups: type 2 diabetes control group, geniposide-treated group, total iridoid glycosides-treated group, and crude extraction of gardenlae fructus-treated group. The other ten healthy rats were the healthy control group. During 12 weeks of treatment, rat's feces samples were collected for the metabolomics study based on mass spectrometry technique. On the basis of the fecal metabolomics method, 19 potential biomarkers were screened and their relative intensities in each group were compared. The results revealed G. jasminoides mainly regulated dysfunctions in phenylalanine metabolism, tryptophan metabolism, and secondary bile acid biosynthesis pathways induced by diabetes. The current study provides new insight for metabonomics methodology toward T2DM, and the results show that feces can preferably reflect the liver and intestines disorders.

Protective Effects of DHA-PC against Vancomycin-Induced Nephrotoxicity through the Inhibition of Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in BALB/c Mice.

Abstract
The clinical use of glycopeptide antibiotic vancomycin is usually accompanied by nephrotoxicity, limiting its application and therapeutic efficiency. The aim of this study was to investigate the protection of DHA-enriched phosphatidylcholine (DHA-PC) against nephrotoxicity using a model of vancomycin-induced male BALB/c mice with renal injury by measuring death curves, histological changes, and renal function indexes. The addition of DHA in DHA and DHA-PC groups were 300 mg/kg per day on the basis of human intake level in our study. Results indicated that DHA-PC could dramatically extend the survival time of mice, while traditional DHA and PC had no significant effects. Moreover, oral administration of DHA-PC exhibited better effects on reducing vancomycin-induced increases of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, cystatin C, and kidney injury molecule-1 levels than traditional DHA and PC. DHA-PC significantly delayed the development of vancomycin-induced renal injury, including tubular necrosis, hyaline casts, and tubular degeneration. A further mechanistic study revealed that the protective effect of DHA-PC on vancomycin-mediated toxicity might be attributed to its ability to inhibit oxidative stress and inactivate mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways, which was associated with upregulation of Bcl-2 and downregulation of caspase-9, caspase-3, cytochrome-c, p38, and JNK. These findings suggest that DHA-PC may be acted as the dietary supplements or functional foods against vancomycin-induced nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
Quercetin, a flavonoid compound, was found to inhibit both monophenolase and diphenolase activities of tyrosinase, and its inhibition against diphenolase activity was in a reversible and competitive manner with an IC50 value of (3.08±0.74)×10-5molL-1. Quercetin bound to tyrosinase driven by hydrophobic interaction, thereby resulted in a conformational change of tyrosinase and its intrinsic fluorescence quenching. Tyrosinase had one binding site for quercetin with the binding constant in the order of magnitude of 104Lmol-1. The molecular docking revealed that quercetin bound to the active site of tyrosinase and chelated a copper with the 3', 4'-dihydroxy groups. It can be deduced that the chelation may prevent the entrance of substrate and then inhibit the catalytic activity of tyrosinase. These findings may be helpful to understand the inhibition mechanism of quercetin on tyrosinase and functional research of quercetin in the treatment of pigmentation disorders.
