        Pinocembrin Reduces Arthritic Symptoms in Mouse Model via Targeting Sox4 Signaling Molecules

        Emad A Ahmed,Hairul-Islam Mohamed Ibrahim,Hany Ezzat Khalil 한국식품영양과학회 2021 Journal of medicinal food Vol.24 No.3

        Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune, multifactorial, inflammatory disorder characterized by hyperplasia and infiltration of inflammatory cells at the synovial lining leading to destruction of cartilage and bone tissues. Pinocembrin (PCB) is a natural flavonoid extracted as a pure molecule from honey, propolis, and some plants. In this study, we evaluated the antiarthritic effect of PCB in adjuvant induced arthritis (AIA) mice. Treating the AIA mouse model with PCB reduced the arthritis symptoms/score, including edema size, extent of hind paw redness, abnormal movement, and holding inability. At the pathological level, PCB significantly decreased the joint erosion and percentages of infiltrated inflammatory cells. Biochemically, PCB interacts with the transcription factor, SRY-related HMG-box 4 (Sox4), and then modulates its dysregulated expression and the expression of Sox4/Stat3 signaling molecules in AIA mice. These molecules include tumor necrosis factor-α, nuclear transcription factor kappaB, and cyclooxygenase-2, besides the microRNAs; miR-132, miR-202-5p, and miR-7235, which are dysregulated in adjuvant-induced arthritis model relative to the control mice. The possible PCB interaction with Sox4 transcriptional protein was confirmed through molecular docking where three hydrogen bonds were formed at ARG and LYS residues at a stable binding energy of −4.72. Taken together, our data demonstrate that PCB could serve as a therapeutic drug in treatment of RA.

        Brassica oleracea Extracts Prevent Hyperglycemia in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

        Sumeet Gupta,Satish Burman,Anroop B. Nair,Samrat Chauhan,Debabrata Sircar,Partha Roy,Meenakshi Dhanwat,Debrupa Lahiri,Dinesh Mehta,Rina Das,Hany Ezzat Khalil 한국식품영양과학회 2022 Preventive Nutrition and Food Science Vol.27 No.1

        This study investigated the protective effect of extracts from flowers of Brassica oleracea L. var. italica Plenck on type 2 diabetes mellitus and its associated disorders. Three different doses of each extract (petroleum ether, ethanol, and aqueous) were administered orally for 42 days. Biochemical parameters, behavioral studies, and histological studies were measured at different periods. Mortality was found to be nil up to 2,000 mg/kg. Statistically significant (P<0.001) improvement in serum glucose level was observed in the groups receiving 400 mg/kg of petroleum ether, aqueous, or ethanol extracts compared with the negative control group. Insulin level was decreased by aqueous extracts, whereas lipid profiles were improved by aqueous and ethanol extracts. A reduction in transfer latency was observed in treatments of all three extract types. Ethanol extract treatment (400 mg/kg) showed maximum percentage inhibition in a lipid peroxidation assay. Additionally, the aqueous and ethanol extract treatments markedly reduced tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, and glycosylated hemoglobin levels. Histological results showed that high doses of extracts alleviated the damages induced by type 2 diabetes mellitus in various organs and bones. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that B. oleracea has the potential to alleviate type 2 diabetes mellitus.
