Myostain is involved in GINSENOSIDE-Rb1-mediated anti-obesity

ABSTRACT: Obesity, as one of the major public health problems in the world, has attracted more and more attention. Rb1 is the most abundant active component of Panax ginseng and it has been reported to have benefit effects on obesity and diabetes. But the mechanisms of Rb1 in regulation of obesity are not very clear. In this study, by use of obese mice, we found that Rb1 not only reduced body weight but also decreased myostain (MSTN) expression，which plays a key role in the regulation of obesity. In vitro, we found that Rb1 treatment also decreased MSTN expression in differentiated C2C12 cells (Myoblast cells) and 3T3-L1 cells (adipocytes). Fndc5, as the downstream of MSTN, was increased after Rb1 treatment. Our results showed that Rb1 may ameliorate obesity through MSTN/Fndc5 signaling pathway. Our study provides important experimental evidences for the treatment of obesity by Rb1.after Rb1 treated.

Project description:The management of cardiac ischemic injury has been challenged by ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated from mitochondrial reverse electron transport (RET) during the early phase of reperfusion is considered to be the initiating cause for ischemia and reperfusion injury. Ginsenosides and their prescriptions are widely used in the clinic for treatment of myocardial ischemia, however, the action to combat ROS remains to be elucidated. In this work, we used TMT-based proteomic approach to detect differential proteins from mitochondrial fractions of mice hearts with ischemia-reperfusion. Results indicated that the mass error of identified peptides was within 10 ppm, and most of the identified peptides were composed of 7-23 amino acids. Using these qualified data, 17,262 peptides, with a confidence level ≥ 95%, were mapped to 3,054 protein groups. PCA analysis showed that the model group was clearly separated from the blank group, while the protein pattern was partly reversed with Rb1 treatment. With a criteria of p-value < 0.05, 591 significantly changed proteins including 186 increased and 405 decreased ones in the model group were identified compared with the blank group. These proteins were divided into 4 clusters. Proteins in Cluster I highly increased in the model group, but clearly decreased in the Rb1 group. Proteins in Cluster IV clearly decreased in the model group, but markedly increased in the Rb1 group. Proteins in Cluster III and in Cluster IV were not significantly or slightly regulated by the Rb1 treatment. GO analysis of Cluster I and II indicated that the molecular function of these proteins were closely related to oxidoreductase activity and NADH dehydrogenase activity. Our result showed that Rb1 administration before ischemia markedly decreased infarct size (48 h post-I/R), and preserved cardiac function (2 weeks post-I/R), and subsequently limited tissue fibrosis (28 days post-I/R). These results indicated that targeted inhibition of mitochondrial complex I in the early stage of reperfusion by Rb1 is a potential therapeutic strategy for alleviating IR injury. This work not only indicates a potent molecular target for the precision therapy of myocardial ischemia by Rb1, but also provides novel knowledge for the management of cardiac ischemic injury by traditional Chinese medicine.

Project description:Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer is a precious Chinese herbal medicine belonging to the Araliaceae family. Because ginseng is extremely taboo, it seriously restricts the sustainable development of the ginseng industry. The allelopathic effect of triterpenoid saponins is one of the important incentives for continuous cropping disorders. However, there are few studies on the mechanism of allelopathic autotoxicity of triterpenoid ginsenosides. Therefore, this study took ginseng hairy roots as the research object, exogenously added ginsenoside Ro to regulate the growth of hairy roots, and measured the changes in its physiological and saponin content. It was found that ginseng hairy roots grew significantly under Ro-0.5 mg/L stress. Inhibition, the specificity of root tip cell injury was obvious, promoted the accumulation of endogenous hormones IAA and SA, and inhibited the accumulation of ABA and JA. The accumulation of ginsenosides was significantly inhibited (except Rg3) under Ro-0.5 mg/L stress. The mRNA analysis of the Ro-0.5 mg/L group and CK group showed that the differentially expressed genes were mostly concentrated in the hormone signal transduction pathway. The genes ARF7 and EFM were up-regulated, and XTH23 and ZOX1 were down-regulated, which can be used as important candidates for hormone-responsive continuous cropping disorders. Gene. 74 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified based on miRNA sequencing, of which 22 were up-regulated and 52 were down-regulated. The target genes of ptc-miR156k_L+1, mtr-miR156b-5p, gma-miR156a_R+1, and mtr-miR156e were all TRINITY_DN14567_c0_g4, TRINITY_DN14567_c0_g4 is a gene in the plant hormone signal transduction pathway, and the four miRNAs are all negatively correlated with mRNA, indicating that ptc-miR156k_L+1, mtr-miR156b-5p, gma-miR156a_R+1, and mtr-miR156e are very likely involved in ginseng Response to continuous cropping disorders and regulation of ginsenoside synthesis. Our findings will provide a useful platform for unraveling the continuous cropping barrier of ginseng and new insights into the genetic engineering of plant stress responses.
