Sulfur alleviates arsenic toxicity by reducing its accumulation and modulating proteome, amino acids and thiol metabolism in rice leaves.

ABSTRACT: Arsenic (As) contamination of water is a global concern and rice consumption is the biggest dietary exposure to human posing carcinogenic risks, predominantly in Asia. Sulfur (S) is involved in di-sulfide linkage in many proteins and plays crucial role in As detoxification. Present study explores role of variable S supply on rice leaf proteome, its inclination towards amino acids (AA) profile and non protein thiols under arsenite exposure. Analysis of 282 detected proteins on 2-DE gel revealed 113 differentially expressed proteins, out of which 80 were identified by MALDI-TOF-TOF. The identified proteins were mostly involved in glycolysis, TCA cycle, AA biosynthesis, photosynthesis, protein metabolism, stress and energy metabolism. Among these, glycolytic enzymes play a major role in AA biosynthesis that leads to change in AAs profiling. Proteins of glycolytic pathway, photosynthesis and energy metabolism were also validated by western blot analysis. Conclusively S supplementation reduced the As accumulation in shoot positively skewed thiol metabolism and glycolysis towards AA accumulation under AsIII stress.

Project description:BackgroundAcute pancreatitis (AP) is a recurrent inflammatory disease. Studies have shown that intestinal homeostasis is essential for the treatment of AP. Formononetin is a plant-derived isoflavone with antioxidant properties that can effectively treat a variety of inflammatory diseases. This study aims to investigate the role of formononetin in protecting against AP and underlying mechanism.MethodsCaerulein was used to induce AP. The inflammatory cytokines were detected using Quantitative real-time PCR and commercial kits. Histological examination was applied with hematoxylin and eosin staining. Western blot was conducted to detect expression of intestinal barrier protein and signaling molecular. Molecular docking was performed to assess protein-ligand interaction.ResultsIn this study, we found formononetin administration significantly reduced pancreatic edema, the activities of serum amylase, lipase, myeloperoxidase, and serum endotoxin. The mRNA levels of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor α, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, interleukin-6, and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in pancreas were also significantly decreased by formononetin. The following data showed formononetin pretreatment up-regulated the expressions of tight junction proteins in the colon, and decreased Escherichia coli translocation in the pancreas. In addition, formononetin inhibited the activation of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing 3 in pancreatic and colonic tissues of AP mice. Moreover, formononetin activated Kelch Like ECH Associated Protein 1 (Keap1) / Nuclear factor erythroid2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway to reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Docking results showed that formononetin interact with Keap1 through hydrogen bond.ConclusionsThese findings demonstrate that formononetin administration significantly mitigate AP through reducing oxidative stress and restoring intestinal homeostasis, and provide insights into the new treatment for AP.
