Luteolin, a promising quorum quencher mitigates virulence factors production in Pseudomonas aeruginosa - In vitro and in vivo approach. Microb Pathog 2023; 180:106123. [PMID: 37088400 DOI: 10.1016/j.micpath.2023.106123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/25/2023]
Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) is an opportunistic pathogen that causes healthcare-associated infection and high mortality in immunocompromised patients. It produces several virulence factors through quorum sensing (QS) mechanisms that is essential for subverting host immune system. Even front-line antibiotics are unable to control PA pathogenicity due to the emergence of antibiotic resistance. Luteolin is a naturally derived compound that has proven to be the effective drug to annihilate pathogens through quorum quenching mechanism. In this study, the protective effect of luteolin against the PA-mediated inflammation was demonstrated using zebrafish model. Luteolin protects zebrafish from PA infection and increases their survival rate. It was found that PA-mediated ROS, lipid peroxidation, and apoptosis were also significantly reduced in luteolin-treated zebrafish larvae. Open field test (OFT) reveals that luteolin rescued PA-infected zebrafish from retarded swimming behavior. Furthermore, luteolin increases SOD and CAT levels and decreases LDH and NO levels in PA-infected zebrafish compare to control group. Histological and gene expression analysis reveals that luteolin protects PA-infected zebrafish by decreasing gut inflammation and altering the expression of inflammatory (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6) and antioxidant markers (iNOS, SOD, CAT). Thus, luteolin was found to have dual effect in protecting PA-infected zebrafish by decreasing virulence factors production in PA and stimulating host immune system. This is the first study demonstrating the protective effect of luteolin using animal model. Hence, luteolin could be used as a future therapeutic drug to control multi-drug resistant PA.

Chem Biodivers 2022; 19:e202200041.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by cell metabolism have a duplex role in oxidation and inflammation reactions which involve cell damage or repair responses. Excess ROS production has detrimental effects on the survival of cells. We examined the protective effect of a semi-natural compound NF2 (deacetylepoxyazadiradione), for its protective activity against free radical-mediated stress and inflammatory response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) using zebrafish larvae. Preliminary antioxidant assays indicated an increase in scavenging of free radicals from NF2 than NF1 (Epoxyazadiradione) in a concentration-dependent manner. Cell cytotoxicity was determined using rat myoblast cell lines (L6), and more than 95 % of cell viability was obtained. Zebrafish developmental toxicity test indicated that NF2 is not toxic even at 150 μM. The percentage of ROS, lipid peroxidation, nitric oxide and apoptosis were reduced significantly in NF2 treated LPS-stressed zebrafish larvae. The reduced number of employed macrophages on NF2 treatment was observed in neutral red dye-marked macrophage localization images. Relative expression of antioxidant genes in zebrafish larvae after treatment with NF2 is significantly increased. The RT-PCR quantification of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory gene expression indicated decreased relative folds of pro-inflammatory cytokines, iNOS and increased relative folds of mitochondrial antioxidant genes (GR, GST and GPx) in LPS stressed zebrafish larvae after treatment with NF2. From the overall obtained results, it can be concluded that NF2 reduced the oxidative stress and inflammatory response by scavenging free radicals caused by LPS.

Sevoflurane alleviates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury via actitation of heat shock protein-70 in patients undergoing double valve replacement surgery. Am J Transl Res 2022; 14:5529-5540.

Abstract
This study investigated the cardioprotective effect(s) of sevoflurane in rheumatic heart disease patients undergoing double valve replacement surgery (DVRS) under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and its potential mechanisms (ChiCTR2100051220 on http://www.ChiCTR.org.cn). Forty-six patients were randomly assigned to undergo propofol or sevoflurane anesthesia during surgery. The levels of myocardial injury markers, inflammatory cytokines, heat shock protein-70 (HSP70), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were measured from blood samples. Mean arterial pressure, cardiac index, and stroke volume index were significantly higher in the sevoflurane group than in the propofol group at the end of CPB. However, there were no significant differences in operative duration, length of CPB or aortic cross-clamp time, auto-resuscitation heart rate, drainage within 48 h after surgery, time to extubation, and recovery time after DVRS. The dose of inotropic agents (dopamine and noradrenaline) was significantly lower in the sevoflurane group than in the propofol group. Sevoflurane was associated with smaller increases in the levels of myocardial injury-associated markers (CK-MB and cardiac troponin I [cTnI]) and inflammatory cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6, IL-8, and tumor-necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α]); however, there was a greater increase in HSP70 levels compared with propofol after surgery. Moreover, SOD activity after surgery was significantly higher in the sevoflurane group than in the propofol group. Increased HSP70 levels in the sevoflurane group were positively correlated with cTnI, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α levels, and negatively correlated with SOD activity. These results suggest a cardioprotective effect of sevoflurane during DVRS. Sevoflurane may reduce biomarkers of cardiac injury through its anti-inflammatory effects via upregulation of HSP70.

Daidzein normalized gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity and associated pro-inflammatory cytokines in MDCK and zebrafish: Possible mechanism of nephroprotection. Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2022; 258:109364.

Abstract
This study investigates the therapeutic activity of daidzein, an isoflavone that occurs naturally in plants and herbs, against gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells in-vitro and zebrafish model in-vivo. The in-vitro studies revealed that daidzein protected MDCK cells from gentamicin-induced inflammation by suppressing oxidative stress and apoptosis. The zebrafish were divided into groups and injected with gentamicin (140 mg/mL) to induce nephrotoxic conditions. After injection, renal dysfunction, nitric oxide production, antioxidant consumption, exaggerated apoptosis, and inflammation were all observed in the zebrafish model. We also observed that during kidney inflammation in zebrafish, pro-inflammatory cytokines such as cyclooxygenase (COX-2), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) are upregulated. Furthermore, daidzein treatment after gentamicin injection showed a strong protective anti-inflammatory effect. Daidzein activity was associated with an increase in antioxidant biomarkers such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione reductase (GSH), whereas lipid peroxidation (LPO) and nitric oxide (NO) production were decreased in a dose-dependent factor. Moreover, histopathological alteration caused by gentamicin in zebrafish kidneys was normalized due to daidzein treatment. Daidzein also downregulated the pro-inflammatory cytokines gene expression in gentamicin-induced kidney inflammation in zebrafish. These results revealed that daidzein could potentially prevent nephrotoxic conditions through pro-inflammatory cytokines inhibition and its antioxidant property.
