Dolichos lablab L. extracts as pharmanutrient for stress-related mucosal disease in rat stomach.

ABSTRACT: Gastric stress-related mucosal disease (SRMD) presented from superficial gastritis to deep ulceration consequent to insufficient perfusion, ischemia, and oxidative stress. Though pharmacologic interventions to optimize tissue perfusion or to enhance defensive mechanism are essential, limited clinical outcome necessitates strong acid suppressors or natural agents. Under the hypothesis that Dolichos lablab L. (NKM 23-1) can enhance defense against SRMD, water immersion restraint stress (WIRS) were imposed to rats and additional groups pretreated with differing doses of NKM 23-1 were monitored. On gross and microscopic evaluation, they significantly rescued SRMD (p<0.01). The levels of inflammatory mediators such as IL-18, IL-1?, IL-8, iNOS, TNF-?, caspase-1, NOXs as well as MMPs accompanied with NF-?B p50 activation were all significantly increased in WIRS, but their levels were significantly decreased in Groups pretreated with NKM 23-1. WIRS significantly increased apoptosis, but significantly decreased with NKM 23-1 accompanied with significantly increased levels of cyclin D/E and HSP70/HSP27. Gastric mucin was significantly preserved in Groups pretreated with NKM 23-1, while depleted in WIRS, accompanied with increased expressions of Muc5A. Gastric levels of HO-1 and NQO1 were significantly increased in Group treated with NKM 23-1 with transcriptional activation of Nrf2. Conclusively, preemptive intake of NKM 23-1 significantly rescued SRMD.

Project description:Stress-related mucosal disease (SRMD) is a common complication in patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). The aim of the present study was to investigate the possible mechanisms for the pathogenesis of SRMD. In total, 38 patients with SRMD were enrolled from an ICU, as well as 15 healthy volunteers. The disease severity of patients in ICU was evaluated using the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score. Gastric mucosa with the most severe lesions were biopsied for hematoxylin and eosin staining and then assessed by pathological damage scoring. The serum levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and ischemic modified albumin (IMA) were also detected. In addition, claudin-3 and inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS) in the gastric mucosa were assessed by western blotting and immunohistochemistry. The average APACHE II score of the patients with SRMD was significantly higher compared with the controls. Moreover, the levels of MDA (4.74±2.89 nmol/ml) and IMA (93.61±10.78 U/ml) in patients with SRMD were significantly higher compared with the controls (P<0.001), while those of SOD (89.66±12.85 U/ml) in the patients with SRMD were significantly lower compared with the controls (P<0.001). Furthermore, compared with the control, iNOS expression was significantly higher (P=0.034), while the expression of claudin-3 was significantly lower in patients with SRMD (P<0.001). The results indicated that APACHE II score was positively correlated with pathological damage score (r=0.639, P<0.001) and levels of MDA (r=0.743, P<0.001), but negatively correlated with the level of SOD (r=-0.392, P=0.015). In addition, MDA was positively correlated with IMA (r=0.380, P=0.018), but negatively correlated with claudin-3 (r=-0.377, P=0.020). Therefore, it was speculated that oxidative stress may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SRMD, and NO levels and cell membrane permeability are altered during this process.

Project description:Fusarium wilt of banana caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense, Tropical Race 4 (TR4) is a soil-borne disease, and it is devastating. At present, the biological control using antagonistic microorganisms to mitigate TR4 is one of the best strategies as a safe and green way. Yunnan has abundant and diverse microbial resources. Using the dual-culture method, the antagonistic endophytic fungi against TR4 were isolated and screened from the root nodule of Dolichos lablab. The effect of the highest antagonistic activity strain on the morphology of the TR4 mycelium was observed using the scanning electron microscope. According to morphological characteristics and sequence analysis, the strain was identified. The biocontrol effect and plant growth promotion were investigated by greenhouse pot experiment. Using the confocal laser scanning microscope and the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, the dynamics of TR4 infestation and the TR4 content in banana plant roots and corms would also be detected. In this study, 18 native endophytic fungi were isolated from a root nodule sample of Dolichos lablab in the mulch for banana fields in Yuxi, Yunnan Province, China. The YNF2217 strain showed a high antagonistic activity against TR4 in plate confrontation experiments, and the inhibition rate of YNF2217 is 77.63%. After TR4 culture with YNF2217 for 7 days in plate confrontation experiments, the morphology of the TR4 mycelium appeared deformed and swollen when observed under a scanning electron microscope. According to morphological characteristics and sequence analysis, the strain YNF2217 was identified as Pochonia chlamydosporia. In the greenhouse pot experiment, the biocontrol effect of YNF2217 fermentation solution on TR4 was 70.97% and 96.87% on banana plant leaves and corms, respectively. Furthermore, YNF2217 significantly promoted the growth of banana plants, such as plant height, leaf length, leaf width, leaf number, pseudostem girth, and both the aboveground and underground fresh weight. Observations of TR4 infestation dynamics in banana roots and corms, along with real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, verified that YNF2217 inoculation could significantly reduce the TR4 content. Therefore, YNF2217 as P. chlamydosporia, which was found first time in China and reported here, is expected to be an important new fungal resource for the green control of Fusarium wilt of banana in the future.
