RESUMEN
A new phthalide derivative named paramlyktone (1) and a new arborinane-type triterpenoid named paramyrpenoid (2), together with ten previously described trichothecenes derivatives (3-12) were isolated and identified from a rhizospheric soil-derived Paramyrothecium sp. KMU22107 associated with Delphinium yunnanense. Their structural elucidation was achieved by the comprehensive analysis of spectroscopic data and comparison with literature values. Notably, paramyrpenoid (2) was the first example of an arborinane-type triterpenoid with a double bond at Δ12(13) and an additional methyl motif at C-8. This was the first report of arborinane-type triterpenoids from a fungus belonging to Paramyrothecium genus. In pharmacological studies, paramyrpenoid (2) demonstrated significant cytotoxic activity against the HL-60, SW480, A-549, MDA-MB-231 and SMMC-7721 cell lines, with IC50 values from 2.0 to 16.1 µM. Compounds 1 and 2 were also evaluated for anti-inflammatory, anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activities in vitro.
RESUMEN
The Arctic Ocean, as a significant carbon sink, is attracting increased attention within the scientific community. This study focused on the main marginal sea ice zone, which has been the most sensitive to environmental changes in recent decades. Using data from reanalysis, models, and on-site observations, the changes in air-sea CO2 flux (FCO2) were analyzed during the influence of Arctic cyclones (ACs) in 2021-2022. Results indicated that the passage of ACs tended to increase the average carbon sink in the main marginal ice zone, with a more pronounced effect during the cold season. During ACs, the average FCO2 could reach -6.95 mmolC m-2 d-1. This was mainly associated with the stronger and more concentrated distribution of ACs where there was lower pCO2 (air-sea gradient of CO2 partial pressure) in the cold season. Additionally, the change in FCO2 during ACs was primarily affected by the sea surface wind and sea-ice concentration in the cold season, while it was influenced by a variety of environmental factors in the warm season, including the sea surface wind, sea-ice concentration, and ecological factors.

Mild inhibition of mitochondrial function leads to longevity. Genetic disruption of mitochondrial respiratory components either by mutation or RNAi greatly extends the lifespan in yeast, worms, and drosophila. This has given rise to the idea that pharmacologically inhibiting mitochondrial function would be a workable strategy for postponing aging. Toward this end, we used a transgenic worm strain that expresses the firefly luciferase enzyme widely to evaluate compounds by tracking real-time ATP levels. We identified chrysin and apigenin, which reduced ATP production and increased the lifespan of worms. Mechanistically, we discovered that chrysin and apigenin transiently inhibit mitochondrial respiration and induce an early ROS, and the lifespan-extending effect is dependent on transient ROS formation. We also show that AAK-2/AMPK, DAF-16/FOXO, and SKN-1/NRF-2 are required for chrysin or apigenin-mediated lifespan extension. Temporary increases in ROS levels trigger an adaptive response in a mitohormetic way, thereby increasing oxidative stress capacity and cellular metabolic adaptation, finally leading to longevity. Thus, chrysin and apigenin represent a class of compounds isolated from natural products that delay senescence and improve age-related diseases by inhibiting mitochondrial function and shed new light on the function of additional plant-derived polyphenols in enhancing health and delaying aging. Collectively, this work provides an avenue for pharmacological inhibition of mitochondrial function and the mechanism underlining their lifespan-extending properties.

Methods allowing light energy to be modulated in a controllable fashion are potentially important for finding the correlation between light-related environmental factors and aging-related lifespan. Here, we report photo- and thermo-regulation based on photonic crystals (PCs) for extended longevity of C. elegans. We show that PCs can function as a regulator of visible spectrum to tune photonic energy received by C.elegans. We provide direct evidence that lifespan depends on photonic energy, and the use of PCs reflecting blue light (440-537 nm) gives 8.3 % increasement in lifespan. We demonstrate that the exposure to modulated light alleviates photo-oxidative stress and unfolded-protein response. We realize reflective passive cooling temperature using PCs, and favorable low temperature could be created for worms to extend lifespan. This work offers a new path based on PCs to resist negative effects light and temperature for longevity, provides an available platform for studying the role of light in aging.

Estuarine wetland is the transitional interface linking terrestrial with marine ecosystems, and wetland microbes are crucial to the biogeochemical cycles of nutrients. The soil samples were collected in four seasons (spring, S1; summer, S2; autumn, S3; and winter, S4) from Suaeda wetland of Shuangtaizi River estuary, Northeast China, and the variations of bacterial community were evaluated by high-throughput sequencing. Soil properties presented a significant seasonal change, including pH, carbon (C) and total nitrogen (TN), and the microbial diversity, richness and structure also differed with seasons. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) and Mantel tests implied that soil pH, C and TN were the key factors structuring the microbial community. Gillisia (belonging to Bacteroidetes) and Woeseia (affiliating with Gammaproteobacteria) were the two primary components in the rhizosphere soils, displaying opposite variations with seasons. Based on PICRUSt (Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States) prediction, the xenobiotics biodegradation related genes exhibited a seasonal decline, while the majority of biomarker genes involved in nitrogen cycle showed an ascending trend. These findings could advance the understanding of rhizosphere microbiota of Suaeda in estuarine wetland.

Microbial communities in wetland soils play vital roles in biogeochemical cycling of nutrients. In this study, the soil samples were collected from Suaeda, reed and Suaeda-reed hybrid zones in Shuangtaizi River Estuary, Northeast China, and the rhizosphere bacterial communities were compared using Illumina MiSeq sequencing. The microbial richness, diversity and structure of bacterial communities varied greatly in reed and Suaeda. Canonical correspondence analysis and Mantel test indicated that pH was the most significant factor (Pâ¯<â¯0.05) in bacterial community assembly. Proteobacteria was the most dominant phylum, accounting for 45.7-58.0% of the total sequences. Thioprofundum, Thiohalomonas and Exiguobacterium were the predominant genera in Suaeda, while Exiguobacterium, Gillisia, Desulfomonile, Citrobacter, Thioprofundum and Acinetobacter were the core species in reed. PICRUSt analysis revealed similar functional profiles of rhizosphere microbiota in reed and Suaeda. Nitrate reduction related genes were abundant for nitrogen metabolism, whereas assimilatory sulfate reduction was the major process for sulfur metabolism.

Adipose and endothelial dysfunction is associated with cardiovascular disease. Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) directly surrounds vessels and influences vessel function via a paracrine effect, and adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) modulates the metabolic pathway, thus, the present study hypothesized that activation of AMPK in PVAT may regulate endothelial function in pathological settings. The present study investigated the effect of methotrexate (MTX) on adipocytokine expression in PVAT with an emphasis on the regulation of endothelial function. The effects of MTX and the mechanisms involved were investigated using a relaxation assay and western blot analysis. Reverse transcriptionquantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels. ELISA assay was used to quantify the level of TNFα and IL6. Palmitic acid (PA) stimulation induced inflammation and dysregulation of adipocytokine expression in PVAT. MTX treatment inhibited nuclear factorκB p65 phosphorylation and downregulated expression of proinflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factorα and interleukin-6, whereas adiponectin expression increased. MTX increased AMPK phosphorylation under basal and inflammatory conditions in PVAT, whereas knockdown of AMPK via small interfering RNA diminished its modulatory effect, indicating that MTX inhibits inflammation in an AMPKdependent manner. The present study prepared conditioned medium from PAstimulated PVAT to induce endothelial dysfunction and observed that pretreatment of PVAT with MTX effectively restored the loss of acetylcholineinduced vasodilation and increased endothelial nitric oxide synthase phosphorylation in the rat aorta. The results of the present study demonstrated that MTX ameliorated inflammation-associated adipocytokine dysregulation and thus prevented endothelial dysfunction. These data provide further pharmacological evidence regarding the beneficial effects of MTX in cardiovascular diseases.

This study aimed to prepare the aminoclay-lipid hybrid composite to enhance the drug release and improve the oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble fenofibrate. Antisolvent precipitation coupled with an immediate freeze-drying method was adopted to incorporate fenofibrate into aminoclay-lipid hybrid composite (ALC). The optimal composition of the ALC formulation was determined as the ratios of aminoclay to krill oil of 3:1 (w/w), krill oil to fenofibrate of 2:1 (w/w), and antisolvent to solvent of 6:4 (v/v). The morphological characteristics of ALC formulation were determined using scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray powder diffraction, which indicated microcrystalline state of fenofibrate in ALC formulation. The ALC formulation achieved almost complete dissolution within 30 minutes, whereas the untreated powder and physical mixture exhibited less than 15% drug release. Furthermore, ALC formulation effectively increased the peak plasma concentration (C max) and area under the curve (AUC) of fenofibric acid (an active metabolite) in rats by approximately 13- and seven-fold, respectively. Furthermore, ALC formulation exhibited much lower moisture sorption behavior than the lyophilized formulation using sucrose as a cryoprotectant. Taken together, the present findings suggest that ALC formulation is promising for improving the oral absorption of poorly soluble fenofibrate.

This research aimed to develop the omega-3 phospholipids based solid dispersion to improve the oral bioavailability of fenofibrate. The omega-3 phospholipids based solid dispersion formulation (OPSD) was prepared by an antisolvent precipitation with immediate freeze-drying and the optimal composition of the formulation was determined as the ratios of sucrose to krill oil of 5:1 (w/w), krill oil to fenofibrate of 1.5:1 (w/w), and antisolvent to solvent of 6:4 (v/v). The developed OPSD formulation was characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), which indicated the crystalline state of fenofibrate in the OPSD. The drug release profiles were also examined at different pHs. The OPSD achieved almost complete dissolution within 15 min, while the untreated powder and physical mixture exhibited minimal dissolution (less than 10% even after 2h). Furthermore, this formulation effectively increased the oral drug exposure in rats, as the Cmax and AUC of fenofibric acid (an active metabolite) were enhanced by approximately 6-7 folds. These results suggest that the OPSD formulation should be promising for improving the oral bioavailability of fenofibrate.

This study aimed to design the chitosan coated TPGS liposome to enhance the bioavailability of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). Optimization of formulation variables for the preparation of the liposome was performed and then three liposomal formulations (TPGS-liposome, TPGS-chitosome, chitosome) were prepared with narrow size distribution and high encapsulation efficiency. All of three liposomal formulations were stable at pH 1.2 and 7.0 for 24h without any significant drug leakage. Furthermore, chitosan-coated liposomes showed the strong mucoadhesive properties. All the tested liposomal formulations significantly enhanced the cellular uptake of CoQ10 as compared to the untreated drug. Particularly, TPGS-chitosome appeared to be most effective in improving the cellular uptake of CoQ10 in Caco-2 cells (about 30-folds greater than the untreated powder formulation). In oral pharmacokinetic studies, TPGS-chitosome enhanced the systemic exposure of CoQ10 by 3.4 folds as compared to the untreated powder and also displayed the extended drug release profile for up to 24h in rats. Compared to the untreated powder CoQ10, TPGS-chitosome significantly improved the antioxidant effect of CoQ10 and reduced the intracellular ROS level. In conclusion, TPGS-chitosome significantly enhanced the oral bioavailability of CoQ10 and prolonged drug release profile in rats, suggesting that TPGS-chitosome could be an effective oral delivery platform to improve the oral bioavailability of poorly absorbable drugs.

The present study aimed to develop an effective oral formulation of tranilast (TL), a poorly soluble anti-inflammatory drug, via the formation of drug complex with 3-aminopropyl functionalized magnesium phyllosilicate (AMP clay) and improve the pH-dependent drug dissolution and bioavailability of TL. The drug-clay complex (TL-AMP complex) was prepared by co-precipitation method and its structural properties were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The dissolution profiles of TL-AMP complex were evaluated at different pHs. The formation of TL-AMP complex significantly improved the dissolution rate as well as the extent of drug release at acidic pHs, while the dissolution of untreated TL was negligible at pH 1.2 and 4.0. TL-AMP complex also achieved faster drug release than untreated drug (about 90 vs 30 % within 30 min) at pH 6.8. After oral administration to rats, TL-AMP complex enhanced significantly (p < 0.05) oral drug exposure and increased Cmax and AUC by six- and threefolds, respectively, compared to untreated TL. In conclusion, TL-AMP complex may be promising to improve the pH-dependent dissolution as well as bioavailability of TL.

Telmisartan (TEL) belongs to BCS class II (low solubility/high permeability) and exhibits the pH-dependent drug release. Since 3-aminopropyl functionalized magnesium phyllosilicate (aminoclay) can intercalate or adsorb the negatively charged molecules via the electrostatic interaction, TEL-aminoclay complex was synthesized to improve the pH dependent drug release and the oral exposure of TEL. Co-precipitation method was adopted to incorporate TEL into aminoclay with the variation of drug/aminoclay ratios, and then dissolution profiles of TEL from TEL-aminoclay complex were evaluated at different pHs. Structural characterization was performed by XRD, ATR-FTIR, and TEM, indicating the electrostatic interaction between TEL and the surface of the aminoclay lamellae. Furthermore, drug crystallinity was changed to an amorphous form via the molecular interactions between TEL and aminoclay. TEL exhibited rapid and complete dissolution at pH 1.2 within 15 min from all the tested formulations. However, while the untreated powder indicated negligible dissolution at pH 4 and pH 6.8, the formation of drug-clay complex significantly improved the dissolution rate as well as the extent of drug release at the higher pHs. In addition, following an oral administration of TEL-aminoclay, Cmax and AUC of TEL increased by about 8 and 5 fold respectively, while Tmax was shorten. The results suggest that formation of aminoclay complex should be promising to enhance the bioavailability of a poorly soluble drug, TEL.

3-Aminopropyl functionalized magnesium phyllosilicate (aminoclay) is a tailor-made organoclay material that has many biomedical applications. Defining the biodistribution and in vivo pharmacokinetics of aminoclay is essential to gauge the therapeutic potential of aminoclay. Therefore, the present study investigated the in vivo fate of aminoclay nanoparticles in a mouse model. Fluorescent Cy5.0-conjugated-aminoclay (Cy5.0-aminoclay) was synthesized for optical imaging and quantification in vivo and then its tissue distribution as well as elimination pathways was investigated in mice. After intravenous administration, fast tissue distribution of Cy5.0-aminoclay into various organs including the liver, kidney, lung, heart, and intestine was evident, as was the rapid clearance from each organ without any long-term accumulation. In addition, systemically administered nanoparticles were eliminated mainly from the urine and feces, where the nearly complete recovery of administered dose was achieved within 72 h. After oral administration, the biodistribution and pharmacokinetic studies indicated no intestinal absorption of Cy5.0-aminoclay. Consequently, about 90% of orally administered nanoparticles were eliminated via feces within 24 h. Taken all together, the present study highlights the low risk for long-term tissue accumulation of aminoclay particles, which may be desirable attributes for biomedical applications as a drug delivery carrier.
