Food Chem Toxicol 2023; 180:114012. [PMID: 37666289 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2023.114012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 09/06/2023]
Abstract
In order to investigate the amelioration of docosahexaenoic acid-enriched phosphatidylserine (DHA-PS) on bisphenol A (BPA)-induced nephrotoxicity, the murine nephrotoxicity model was established by intragastric administration of BPA (5 mg/kg/B.W.) for 6 weeks. The biochemical indices, hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining, kidney metabolomics, and related protein expression levels of SIRT1-AMPK pathway were then determined. Our results indicated that DHA-PS (100 mg/kg/B.W.) ameliorated the BPA-induced nephrotoxicity after 6 weeks of intragastric administration, primarily by decreasing the serum creatinine (CRE) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), renal inflammatory cytokines and lipid levels, and increasing the antioxidant enzyme activities. In addition, the untargeted metabolomics of the kidney indicated that BPA perturbed the tryptophan metabolism, pyridine metabolism, and valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosynthesis, while DHA-PS administration significantly affected the glycerophospholipid metabolism, valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosynthesis to ameliorate the BPA-induced metabolic disorder. Moreover, DHA-PS administration could ameliorate the BPA-induced lipid disturbance by upregulating the expressions of AMPKα1, SIRT1, and PPARα while downregulating the expression of SREBP-1c through the SIRT1-AMPK pathway. This is the first time that the amelioration effects of DHA-PS on BPA-induced nephrotoxicity have been investigated from multiple perspectives, suggesting that DHA-PS might be a potential dietary supplement for reducing BPA-induced nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
To improve the solubility and anti-hyperuricemia activity of the insoluble natural flavonoid isorhamnetin (ISO), an isorhamnetin phospholipid complex (ISO-PC) was prepared. ISO-PC was prepared through solvent evaporation and its prescription process was optimized. The formation of ISO-PC was verified via multiple characterization methods. Parameters such as drug loading, solubility, octanol-water partition coefficient, stability, and in vivo anti-hyperuricemia activity of ISO-PC were investigated. The complexation efficiency of ISO-PC was 95.1% ± 0.56%. The characterization results confirmed that ISO-PC was bound by intermolecular interactions between ISO and phospholipids. Compared to ISO, the solubility of ISO-PC in water and 1-octanol increased by 122 and 16.5 times, respectively. Additionally, the octanol-water partition coefficient decreased to 1.08. Pharmacodynamic studies have reported that ISO-PC has a more significant effect on reducing serum uric acid levels and renal protection. In conclusion, the findings of this study suggested that ISO-PC could be used as a promising formulation to improve the solubility and the anti-hyperuricemia activity of ISO.

Abstract
An increasing number of studies have reported the effects of curcumin (Cur) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on alleviating acute kidney injury (AKI). In this work, we have performed a comparative investigation to determine the effect of dietary DHA-acylated Cur esters, ester derivatives of Cur, and recombination of curcumin and DHA on alleviating acute kidney injury in a mouse model induced by a single intraperitoneal injection with cisplatin (20 mg kg-1). The results showed that the DHA-acylated Cur diesters significantly decreased the abnormally increased blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) in serum caused by AKI. Histopathological results confirmed that DHA-acylated Cur diesters clearly reduced the degree of renal tubular injury. The renal protective effect of the DHA-acylated Cur diester was better than that of the monoester and the recombination of Cur and DHA. Notably, we found that the DHA-acylated Cur diester treatment remarkably changed the relative abundance of microbiota related to LPS and TMAO/trimethylamine (TMA) metabolism. Moreover, dietary DHA-acylated Cur diesters clearly reduced the MDA content and elevated GSH levels in the kidney of AKI mice, as well as changed the fatty acid composition in the kidney. Further mechanism studies showed that DHA-acylated Cur diesters significantly inhibited inflammation, apoptosis and oxidative stress by preventing the LPS and TMAO-mediated PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway. The above results indicate that DHA-acylated Cur diesters are a potentially novel candidate or targeted dietary pattern to prevent and treat drug-induced acute kidney injury.

EPA-Enriched Phospholipids Alleviate Renal Interstitial Fibrosis in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats by Regulating TGF-β Signaling Pathways. Mar Drugs 2022; 20:md20020152. [PMID: 35200681 PMCID: PMC8879699 DOI: 10.3390/md20020152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Revised: 02/12/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Hypertensive nephropathy is a chronic kidney disease caused by hypertension. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) has been reported to possess an antihypertensive effect, and our previous study suggested that EPA-enriched phospholipid (EPA-PL) had more significant bioactivities compared with traditional EPA. However, the effect of dietary EPA-PL on hypertensive nephropathy has not been studied. The current study was designed to examine the protection of EPA-PL against kidney damage in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Treatment with EPA-PL for three weeks significantly reduced blood pressure through regulating the renin–angiotensin system in SHRs. Moreover, dietary EPA-PL distinctly alleviated kidney dysfunction in SHRs, evidenced by reduced plasma creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and 24 h proteinuria. Histology results revealed that treatment of SHRs with EPA-PL alleviated renal injury and reduced tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Further mechanistic studies indicated that dietary EPA-PL remarkably inhibited the activation of TGF-β and Smad 3, elevated the phosphorylation level of PI3K/AKT, suppressed the activation of NF-κB, reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β and IL-6, and repressed the oxidative stress and the mitochondria-mediated apoptotic signaling pathway in the kidney. These results indicate that EPA-PL has potential value in the prevention and alleviation of hypertensive nephropathy.
