PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 132:155828. [PMID: 38905847 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2024] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/23/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a specific form of regulated cell death induced by a variety of stressors. During ICD, the dying cancer cells release damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which promote dendritic cell maturation and tumor antigen presentation, subsequently triggering a T-cell-mediated anti-tumor immune response. In recent years, a growing number of studies have demonstrated the potential of natural products to induce ICD and enhance tumor cell immunogenicity. Moreover, there is an increasing interest in identifying new ICD inducers from natural products. PURPOSE This study aimed to emphasize the potential of natural products and their derivatives as ICD inducers to promote research on using natural products in cancer therapy and provide ideas for future novel immunotherapies based on ICD induction. METHOD This review included a thorough search of the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases to identify natural products with ICD-inducing capabilities. A comprehensive search for clinical trials on natural ICD inducers was also conducted using ClinicalTrials.gov, as well as the approved patents using the Espacenet and CNKI Patent Database. RESULTS Natural compounds that induce ICD can be categorized into several groups, such as polyphenols, flavonoids, terpenoids, and alkaloids. Natural products can induce the release of DAMPs by triggering endoplasmic reticulum stress, activation of autophagy-related pathways, and reactive oxygen species generation, etc. Ultimately, they activate anti-tumor immune response and improve the efficacy of cancer treatments. CONCLUSION A growing number of ICD inducers from natural products with promising anti-cancer potential have been identified. The detailed information presented in this review will contribute to the further development of natural ICD inducers and cancer treatment strategies based on ICD-induced responses.

[PMID: 39038417 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.465147] [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: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024]
Abstract
Despite the therapeutic properties of capsaicin for some diseases, it shows some side effects for human health. The goal of this study was to develop a precise and accurate analytical strategy for the trace determination of capsaicin in different food, biological and environmental samples including pepper, saliva and wastewater by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) after spraying-based fine droplet formation-liquid phase microextraction (SFDF-LPME) and quadruple isotope dilution (ID4) method. Acetic anhydride was used as derivatizing agent, and the extraction method was used to enrich the analyte derivative to reach low detection limits. Under the optimum conditions, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were determined to be 0.33 and 1.10 µg/kg, respectively. Percent recoveries calculated for SFDF-LPME-GC-MS method ranged between 84.1 and 131.7 %. After the application of ID4-SFDF-LPME-GC-MS method, percent recoveries were obtained in the range of 94.9 and 104.0 % (%RSD ≤ 2.8) for the selected samples. It is obvious that the isotope dilution-based method provided high accurate and precise results due to the elimination of errors during the derivatization, extraction and measurement steps.

Kilohertz high-frequency electrical stimulation ameliorate hyperalgesia by modulating transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-2B signaling pathways in chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve mice. Mol Pain 2024; 20:17448069231225810. [PMID: 38148592 PMCID: PMC10851768 DOI: 10.1177/17448069231225810] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The number of patients with neuropathic pain is increasing in recent years, but drug treatments for neuropathic pain have a low success rate and often come with significant side effects. Consequently, the development of innovative therapeutic strategies has become an urgent necessity. Kilohertz High Frequency Electrical Stimulation (KHES) offers pain relief without inducing paresthesia. However, the specific therapeutic effects of KHES on neuropathic pain and its underlying mechanisms remain ambiguous, warranting further investigation. In our previous study, we utilized the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to identify datasets related to neuropathic pain mice. The majority of the identified pathways were found to be associated with inflammatory responses. From these pathways, we selected the transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-2B (NMDAR2B) pathway for further exploration. Mice were randomly divided into four groups: a Sham group, a Sham/KHES group, a chronic constriction injury of the sciatic nerve (CCI) group, and a CCI/KHES stimulation group. KHES administered 30 min every day for 1 week. We evaluated the paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) and thermal withdrawal latency (TWL). The expression of TRPV1 and NMDAR2B in the spinal cord were analyzed using quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, and immunofluorescence assay. KHES significantly alleviated the mechanical and thermal allodynia in neuropathic pain mice. KHES effectively suppressed the expression of TRPV1 and NMDAR2B, consequently inhibiting the activation of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1 (IBA1) in the spinal cord. The administration of the TRPV1 pathway activator partially reversed the antinociceptive effects of KHES, while the TRPV1 pathway inhibitor achieved analgesic effects similar to KHES. KHES inhibited the activation of spinal dorsal horn glial cells, especially astrocytes and microglia, by inhibiting the activation of the TRPV1/NMDAR2B signaling pathway, ultimately alleviating neuropathic pain.

Abstract
Tight junctions (TJs) are cell-cell interactions that localize at the most apical portion of epithelial/endothelial cells. One of the predominant functions of TJs is to regulate material transport through paracellular pathway, which serves as a selective barrier. In recent years, the expression and function of TJs in salivary glands has attracted great interest. The characteristics of multiple salivary gland TJ proteins have been identified. During salivation, the activation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor and transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1, as well as other stimuli, promote the opening of acinar TJs by inducing internalization of TJs, thereby contributing to increased paracellular permeability. Besides, endothelial TJs are also redistributed with leakage of blood vessels in cholinergic-stimulated submandibular glands. Furthermore, under pathological conditions, such as Sjögren's syndrome, diabetes mellitus, immunoglobulin G4-related sialadenitis, and autotransplantation, the integrity and barrier function of TJ complex are impaired and may contribute to hyposalivation. Moreover, in submandibular glands of Sjögren's syndrome mouse model and patients, the endothelial barrier is disrupted and involved in hyposecretion and lymphocytic infiltration. These findings enrich our understanding of the secretory mechanisms that link the importance of epithelial and endothelial TJ functions to salivation under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Abstract
Take Home Message: Capsaicin modified inflammatory response and caused toxicity in bronchial epithelial cultures from patients with COPD. More importantly, capsaicin decreased ciliary beat frequency and induced epithelial permeability and these effects were partially prevented by formoterol and roflumilast. Tear gas is widely used to halt mass demonstrations. Studies have reported its adverse effects on multiple organ systems; however, its effect on individuals with chronic respiratory diseases and the underlying mechanisms of these effects are unclear. For the first time in the literature, we investigated the effects of capsaicin, the active ingredient of tear gas, on bronchial epithelial cell (BEC) cultures obtained from well-characterized groups of nonsmokers, smokers, and patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). BEC cultures were incubated with 50-500 μM capsaicin in the absence and presence of formoterol (1μM) and roflumilast (0.1 μM) for 24 h. Ciliary beat frequency (CBF) and transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) were assessed at T1/4, T1/2, T1, T2, T4, T6, and T24 h, whereas the release of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin (IL)-8, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was measured at T24 h. Capsaicin (250 µM) significantly decreased CBF of all BEC cultures from T1/4 h to T24 h (p<0.05). Formoterol significantly prevented decreases in CBF induced by capsaicin. Higher concentrations of capsaicin (250-500 μM) significantly reduced TEER of BECs from nonsmokers (T2-T24 h), smokers (T24 h) and COPD patients (T2 and T24 h), which was partially prevented by roflumilast. Capsaicin (500 μM) decreased release of IL-8 (p<0.0001) and GM-CSF (p<0.05) while inducing release of LDH in BECs (p<0.05), and this was more prominent in BEC from patients with COPD. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that capsaicin can suppress ciliary activity and cytokine release from BECs, induce BEC culture permeability and cellular toxicity and that these effects can be partially prevented by formoterol and roflumilast.

Abstract
Capsaicin increases saliva production, but the impact of this additional saliva on the food matrix is unknown. This study aimed to explain the impact of capsaicin on saliva properties and in-vivo release of 14 aroma compounds in aqueous [aqu] and oil systems [oil]. To investigate the physicochemical effect from diverse properties of aroma compounds, one healthy subject participated in all the sessions to minimise large variations between individuals. Capsaicin enhanced saliva flow rate (by 172% [aqu] and 85% [oil]) and salivary protein concentration (by 142% [aqu] and 149% [oil]). Furthermore, capsaicin-in-oil stimulated saliva formed a more stable emulsion in the mouth (17% higher zeta-potential and 15% smaller particle size). In-nose release concentrations measured by APCI-MS for certain esters were reduced by capsaicin (e.g., isoamyl acetate was reduced by 65% [aqu] and 76% [oil]), which suggests that capsaicin may induce stronger oral interactions between specific aroma compounds and salivary proteins.

Abstract
Dry eye and dry mouth are the principal sources of morbidity for patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SS). There are few effective treatments, particularly systemic ones. Targeting aquaprin-5 (AQP5)-mediated tear secretion has been tested as a novel ancillary strategy and has proved promising. Patients have a great interest in using complementary medicine, including nutraceuticals and bioactive compounds to alleviate their symptoms. Potential mechanisms by which phytocompounds and bioactive compounds may benefit SS ocular and mouth symptoms through modulation of AQP5 activity are presented within this review. Supplementation with prebiotics (such as polyphenols with high bioavailability) in SS patients with lower Firmicutes/Bacteroides (F/B) community ratio phenotype, through administration of butyrate-producing diets, is proposed as ancillary strategy for dry eye and mouth. The potential use of natural bioactive compounds to treat dry eye could also apply to dry mouth occurring in the context of aging and SS. This novel hypothesis could have implications with respect to planning a successful dietary regimen for achieving and maintaining a normal gut microbiota in SS patients. This regimen would include augmenting butyrate-producing foodstuffs and/or polyphenol-rich syrups, and high amounts of some specific probiotic-rich foodstuffs such as yogurt, soy yogurt, or as probiotic supplements. There are applications for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products aiming to relieve dry eye and mouth.

Abstract
The purinergic 2X7 (P2X7) receptor expressed in satellite glial cells (SGCs) is involved in the inflammatory response, and transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) participates in the process of neurogenic inflammation, such as that in diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) and peripheral neuralgia. The main purpose of this study was to explore the role of the P2X7 receptor in DNP hypersensitivity mediated by TRPV1 in the rat and its possible mechanism. A rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus-related neuropathic pain (NPP) named the DNP rat model was established in this study. The mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal withdrawal latency (TWL) of DNP rats were increased after intrathecal injection of the P2X7 receptor antagonist A438079, and the mRNA and protein levels of TRPV1 in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) were decreased in DNP rats treated with A438079 compared to untreated DNP rats; in addition, A438079 also decreased the phosphorylation of p38 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) in the DNP group. Based on these results, the P2X7 receptor might be involved in DNP mediated by TRPV1.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is an enigmatic, idiopathic, chronic, often painful clinical entity, where patients experience oral burning without clear clinical changes on the oral mucosa. There are yet to be well established standardized and validated definitions, diagnostic criteria or classifications for burning mouth syndrome. The aim of this study is to determine whether vitamin B complex and zinc supplements or 0.02% topical capsaicin rinse, can help alleviate BMS pain/burning levels. The objectives: (1) Gather data before and after treatment with vitamin B complex and zinc supplements (2) After the vitamin B complex and zinc protocol gather data before and after treatment with 0.02% topical capsaicin rinse (3) Data analysis and assessment for both treatment methods. Materials and Methods: 89 patients took part in the vitamin B and zinc supplement treatment regimen, out of those 20 patients took part in the capsaicin rinse treatment regimen. Before and after each treatment pain/burning levels were determined using the Visual analogue scale, salivary flow was also determined. Results: Both treatment methods showed statistically significant data in reducing pain/burning levels. There were no statistically significant changes in the salivary flow after any treatment. Conclusion: vitamin B and zinc supplement therapy and topical capsaicin rinse therapy can be an effective way to decrease pain/burning sensation levels in patients with BMS. More research should be conducted to determine the benefit of either vitamin B and zinc supplement therapy or topical capsaicin rinse therapy, so that BMS patients have treatment options, that have as few side-effects as possible.

Abstract
Capsaicin (trans-8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide), a well-known vanilloid, which is the main spicy component in chili peppers, showing several biological activities and the potential applications range from food flavorings to therapeutics. Traditional extraction of capsaicin by organic solvents was time-consuming, some new methods such as aqueous two-phase method and ionic liquid extraction method have been developed. During past few decades, an ample variety of biological effects of capsaicin have been evaluated. Capsaicin can be used in biofilms and antifouling coatings due to its antimicrobial activity, allowing it has a promising application in food packaging, food preservation, marine environment and dental therapy. Capsaicin also play a crucial role in metabolic disorders, including weight loss, pressure lowing and insulin reduction effects. In addition, capsaicin was identified effective on preventing human cancers, such as lung cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer and breast cancer by inducing apoptosis and inhibiting cell proliferation of tumor cells. Previous research also suggest the positive effects of capsaicin on pain relief and cognitive impairment. Capsaicin, the agonist of transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1), could selectively activate TRPV1, inducing Ca2+ influx and related signaling pathways. Recently, gut microbiota was also involved in some diseases therapeutics, but its influence on the effects of capsaicin still need to be deeply studied. In this review, different extraction and purification methods of capsaicin, its biological activities and pharmacological effects were systematically summarized, as well as the possible mechanisms were also deeply discussed. This article will give an updated and better understanding of capsaicin-related biological effects and provide theoretical basis for its further research and applications in human health and manufacture development.

Abstract
Sichuan pepper is a plant belonging to the genus Zanthoxylum and family rue. To evaluate whether Sichuan pepper oil boosts saliva secretion using an encapsulated food product containing the oil in subjects presenting with mouth dryness. We evaluated subjective symptoms that changed with a decrease in salivary secretion in the subjects by evaluating the number of Candida colonies and by conducting interviews. The study results demonstrated that salivary secretion increased by 39.4% ± 37.6% after single ingestion of the product, and an additional 8.7% ± 13.2% and 6.3% ± 31.2% following continuous ingestion over 2 and 4 weeks, respectively. These findings suggested that the product rapidly promotes and maintains salivation. Regarding the proliferation of Candida colonies in subjects with mouth dryness, a negative correlation was observed between Candida colony number and salivary secretion quantity. Additionally, interviews revealed that subjective symptoms, such as mouth dryness, discomfort and pain in the mouth, difficulty swallowing the saliva, and feeling of stickiness in the mouth, improved shortly after single ingestion of the product, and mouth dryness was reduced by continuous consumption of the product. These findings indicated that the product studied promotes rapid salivary secretion, is effective in reducing the number of oral Candida colonies, and improves subjective symptoms such as mouth dryness.

Abstract
[6]-Gingerol possesses various beneficial pharmacological and therapeutic properties, including anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory properties and the ability to regulate intestinal contraction. Recently, our group observed that the serosal administration of [6]-gingerol stimulated electrogenic sodium absorption in the rat colon via the capsaicin receptor, TRPV1. TRPV1 is known to be expressed in both the mucosal epithelium and the muscle layers in the colon. In the present study, we assessed whether [6]-gingerol stimulated sodium absorption via TRPV1 in the colonic mucosal epithelium. We compared the effect of [6]-gingerol on TRPV1-dependent colonic sodium absorption in the colon preparation with or without muscle layer. All experiments were performed by measuring the transmural potential difference (ΔPD) in an Ussing chamber system. [6]-Gingerol induced positive ΔPD when administered to the serosal side of the colon, and this effect was significantly larger in the colon preparation without muscle layer than in that with the muscle layer. In the colon preparation without muscle layer, the [6]-gingerol-dependent induction of ΔPD was markedly suppressed by mucosal addition of amiloride, a selective inhibitor of epithelial sodium channel. ΔPD induction by [6]-gingerol was considerably diminished by capsazepine, an inhibitor of the capsaicin receptor TRPV1, but not by AP-18, an inhibitor of TRPA1. These results suggest that [6]-gingerol induces amiloride-sensitive electrogenic sodium absorption in the rat colon via TRPV1 expressed in the colonic mucosal epithelium, and that this effect is independent of TRPV1 in the colonic muscle layer.

Abstract
Capsaicin, a well known vanilloid, has shown evidence of an ample variety of biological effects which make it the target of extensive research ever since its identification. In spite of the fact that capsaicin causes health hazards in quite a few ways, yet, the verity cannot be ignored that capsaicin has several therapeutic implications. In patients with hypersensitive bladders, vesical instillation of 1 mM capsaicin markedly improved urinary frequency and urge incontinence. Again, administration of capsaicin favors an augmentation in lipid mobilization and a decrease in adipose tissue mass. Topical capsaicin cream as well decreases postsurgical neuropathic pain and is preferred by patients over a placebo among other therapies. Several in vitro studies have revealed that capsaicin results in growth arrest in some transformed cell lines. Furthermore, capsaicin has been proven to be an undeniably exciting molecule and remains a valuable drug for alleviating pain and itch. It has been recognized that capsaicinoids are the most potential agonists of capsaicin receptor (TRPV1). However, vanilloids could exert the beneficial effects not only through the receptor-dependent pathway but also through the receptor-independent one. The involvement of serotonin, neuropeptide Substance P and somatostatin in the pharmacological actions of capsaicin has been expansively investigated. Better understanding of the established TRPV1 receptor mechanism as well as exploring other possible receptor mechanism may publicize other new clinical efficacies of capsaicin. Further, clinical studies are required in several of these conditions to establish the efficacy of capsaicin.
