Protective effect on bone of nacre supplementation in ovariectomized rats. JBMR Plus 2022; 6:e10655.

Abstract
Nacre has emerged as a beneficial natural product for bone cells and tissues, but its effect was only studied by gavage in the ovariectomized mouse model. We sought to assess the antiosteoporotic effect of nacre through a nutritional supplementation in the ovariectomized rat model. Sixteen‐week‐old female Wistar rats were either Sham‐operated or bilateral ovariectomized (OVX) and then fed with standard diet (Sham and OVX groups) or standard diet supplemented with either 0.25% CaCO3 or nacre (OVX CaCO3 and OVX Nacre group, respectively) for 28 days (n = 10/group). The bone microarchitecture was assessed at appendicular and axial bones by micro‐computed tomography (μCT). Histomorphometric analysis was performed to determine cellular and dynamic bone parameters. Bone metabolism was also evaluated by biochemical markers and gene expression levels. Nacre‐based diet prevented the OVX‐induced bone loss better than that of the CaCO3 supplement, given the significant changes in trabecular bone volume fraction (BV/TV) both at the femoral distal metaphysis (difference, 35%; p = 0.004) and at the second lumbar spine (difference, 11%; p = 0.01). Trabecular osteoclast surfaces (Oc.S/BS) were also 1.5‐fold lower at the tibial proximal metaphysis in OVX Nacre group compared with OVX CaCO3 group (p = 0.02). By principal component analysis (PCA), OVX Nacre group formed a cluster away from OVX group and with a trend closest to Sham group. These data were consistent with biological measurements demonstrating a positive profile related to nacre supplementation, which blunted an increase in serum CTX level and enhanced serum P1NP secretion 14 days post‐OVX compared with CaCO3 supplementation. Bmp2 mRNA expression in OVX Nacre group was +1.76‐fold (p = 0.004) and +1.30‐fold (p = 0.20) compared with OVX and OVX CaCO3 groups, respectively. We conclude that supplementation with nacre could effectively limit bone loss induced by estrogen deficiency just after OVX in rats by modulating the negative imbalance of bone turnover. © 2022 The Authors.

Appl Biochem Biotechnol 2021; 193:3454-3468.

Abstract
Nephrotoxicity induced by exposure to environmental pollution, including herbicides, is becoming a global problem. Natural products are the prime alternative scientific research as they express better medicinal activity and minor side effects compared with a variety of synthetic drugs. This study was performed to evaluate the nephroprotective proficiency of Arabic gum against butralin-induced nephrotoxicity. Adult female rats were supplemented with Arabic gum (4.3 g/kg b.wt) and/or butralin (312 mg/L) in drinking water for 30 days. The results found that markers of serum kidney function, oxidative stress biomarkers, DNA damage, and expression of kidney specific genes (Acsm2, Ace, and Ace2) as well as histopathological examination in treated rats were conducted. Butralin-treated rats showed a rise in serum creatinine (41%), BUN (47.3%), and MDA (140.9%) as well as decrease in activity of the antioxidant markers (CAT (-21%); GPx (-70.7%); and TAC (43.2%)) in comparison with the control group. In addition, butralin treatment increased the DNA damage (221%); altered the expression levels of Acsm2, Ace, and Ace2 (-51.6%, 141.6%, and 143% respectively); and elevated histopathological lesions in the kidney tissues. Pretreatment of Arabic gum prevented butralin-prompted degenerative changes of kidney tissues. The results suggested that the protective effect provided by Arabic gum on renal tissues exposed to the herbicide butralin could be attributed to enhancement of antioxidants and increase the free radical scavenging activity in vivo.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CP) is a powerful antineoplastic chemotherapeutic agent with broad-spectrum properties. Acute and cumulative cardiotoxicity are major limiting factors for CP therapy. Various pathogenic pathways have been suggested to CP-induced cardiotoxicity; oxidative damage, ER stress, and programmed cell death/apoptosis. The present study aimed to assess the signaling mechanisms related to the advantageous effects of rosuvastatin (RSV) and simvastatin (SMV) against CP-related cardiac ER stress dependent apoptotic death in rats. Acute cardiotoxicity was induced by a single dose of CP (10 mg/kg, i.p.) on the 10th day of the experiment. RSV (10 mg/ kg/day) and SMV (10 mg/kg/day) were orally administered for 15 days. CP-treated rats showed significant alterations in electrocardiographic recordings and elevation in serum cardiac function biomarkers; troponin T content, lactate dehydrogenase and creatine kinase-MB levels as well as boost in the cardiac oxidative stress biomarkers. In addition, CP exposure resulted in GRP78 induction; an ER stress and elevation marker at calpain-1 content as well as activation of activated caspase-3 (ACASP3) and caspase-12 were reflected on CP-triggered apoptosis evidenced by elevation in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. However, RSV and SMV administration mitigate those adverse CP effects. Statins administration prominently alleviated CP-induced cardiac abnormalities exerting improvement in the ECG pattern and cardiac enzyme biomarkers. Interestingly, statins; RSV and SMV, disrupted CP-induced ER stress and the consequent apoptotic cell death evidenced by downregulation of ER-chaperone GRP78, calpain-1, ACASP3 and caspase-12 as well as decline in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. From all the previous findings, it can be suggested that statins namely; RSV and SMV, play protective role against CP-induced cardiac injury by regulating ER stress-mediated apoptotic pathways.

Abstract
The present study is the first report for studying the toxic effects of butralin herbicide on COX2, BAX, and Bcl2 gene expression, oxidative stress, and liver damage in female rats. Female rats were received butralin in drinking water for 28 days at concentration 4.16, 312, and 3120 mg/L that corresponded to the acceptable daily intake (ADI), no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL), and 10 NOAEL, respectively. Butralin decreased body weights and increased relative liver weight of female rats exposed to high dose. It caused significant elevation in liver function enzymes, lipid peroxidation, and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Antioxidant enzymes were decreased in liver tissue by increasing the dose. Butralin induced over-expression in the apoptotic related genes including COX2, BAX, and Bcl2 and pathological alteration in the liver of female rats especially at a high dose. It can be concluded that butralin induced oxidative damage and liver injure. The mechanism of damage could be due to generate reactive oxygen species, and increase lipid peroxidation that causes over-expression in the apoptotic related genes including COX2, BAX, and Bcl2. From the Benchmark dose (BMD) approach, there is dose-dependent manner in body weight, AST, ALT, and ALP, and ALT is a very sensitive parameter.

Eur J Pharmacol 2020; 885:173383.

Abstract
Our study aimed to investigate the effect of pioglitazone (PIO) on the obesity-associated metabolic effects and whether this effect is associated with modulation of catechol O-methyl transferase (COMT) expression in the high fat diet (HFD) induced obese rats. Male Wistar rats fed HFD were used to evaluate the effect of PIO on obesity-associated hypertension and the expression of COMT. The HFD-induced obesity was confirmed by the change in body weights, the fasting serum insulin (FSI) which assessed by ELISA, homeostasis model assessment - insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), fasting blood glucose (FBG), oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and lipid profile which were determined by colorimetric methods. Plasma epinephrine (EP) and norepinephrine (NE) were determined by ELISA and the systolic blood pressure (SBP) was recorded using the tail-cuff method. COMT expression was assessed by quantitative real time-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and western blotting. The HFD-induced obesity was associated with glucose intolerance, derangement of the lipid profile, increased SBP, reduced COMT expression with a concomitant increase in plasma catecholamines. Most importantly, treatment with PIO ameliorated the HFD-induced metabolic changes, improved the lipid profile, reduced SBP, increased COMT expression, and reduced plasma catecholamines. Treatment with PIO reversed HFD-induced glucose intolerance and the associated metabolic derangement. In addition, these effects of PIO were associated with up-regulating COMT expression with a subsequent reduction in plasma catecholamines levels.
