Treatment with valproic acid (VPA) deteriorates hippocampal neurogenesis, which leads to memory impairment. Hesperidin (Hsd) is a plant-based bioflavonoid that can augment learning and memory. This study aimed to understand the effect of Hsd on the impairment of hippocampal neurogenesis and memory caused by VPA. The VPA (300 mg/kg) was administered by intraperitoneal injection twice daily for 14 days, and Hsd (100 mg/kg/day) was administered by oral gavage once a day for 21 days. All rats underwent memory evaluation using the novel object location (NOL) and novel object recognition (NOR) tests. Immunofluorescent staining of Ki-67, BrdU/NeuN, and doublecortin (DCX) was applied to determine hippocampal neurogenesis in cell proliferation, neuronal survival, and population of the immature neurons, respectively. VPA-treated rats showed memory impairments in both memory tests. These impairments resulted from VPA-induced decreases in the number of Ki-67-, BrdU/NeuN-, and DCX-positive cells in the hippocampus, leading to memory loss. Nevertheless, the behavioral expression in the co-administration group was improved. After receiving co-administration with VPA and Hsd, the numbers of Ki-67-, BrdU/NeuN-, and DCX-positive cells were improved to the normal levels. These findings suggest that Hsd can reduce the VPA-induced hippocampal neurogenesis down-regulation that results in memory impairments. 相似文献

Integrase-defective lentiviral vectors (ID-LVs) show several hallmarks of conventional lentiviral vectors such as absence of cytotoxic effects and long-term expression in non-replicating target cells. The integration rate of ID-LVs into the genome of target cells is dramatically reduced, which enhances safety and opens perspectives for their use in vaccine development. ID-LVs have been shown to be effective vaccines in mouse models, but functional studies with human cells in vitro and in vivo are lacking. Here, we evaluated whether ID-LVs expressing combinations of cytokines (GM-CSF/IL-4 or GM-CSF/IFN-α) used to transduce human monocytes would result in functional "induced dendritic cells" (iDCs). Overnight transduction of monocytes with high titer ID-LVs generated highly viable (14 days) and immunophenotypically stable iDCs expressing GM-CSF/IL-4 ("SmartDCs") or GM-CSF/IFN-α ("SmyleDCs"). SmartDCs and SmyleDCs maintained in vitro continuously secreted the transgenic cytokines and showed up-regulation of several endogenously produced inflammatory cytokines (IFN-γ, IL-2, -5, -6, and -8). Both iDC types potently stimulated T cells in mixed lymphocyte reactions at levels comparable to conventional DCs (maintained with exogenous cytokines). A single in vitro stimulation of CD8(+) T cells with autologous SmartDCs or SmyleDCs pulsed with peptide pools of pp65 (a human cytomegalovirus antigen) resulted in high expansion of central memory and effector memory CTLs reactive against different pp65 epitopes. We further evaluated the effects of SmartDCs and SmyleDCs to expand anti-pp65 CTLs in vivo using immune deficient NOD/Rag1((-/-))/IL-2rγ((-/-)) (NRG) mice. NRG mice immunized subcutaneously with SmartDCs or SmyleDCs co-expressing the full-length pp65 were subsequently infused with autologous CD8(+) T cells. Both types of iDCs effectively stimulated human CTLs reactive against different pp65 antigenic determinants in vivo. Due to the simplicity of generation, robust viability and combined capacity to stimulate homeostatic, antigenic and multivalent responses, iDCs are promising vaccines to be explored in immunization of lymphopenic patients in the post-transplantation setting. 相似文献

Hippocampal neurogenesis occurs throughout life, but it declines with age. D-galactose (D-gal) enhances cellular senescence through oxidative stress leading to neurodegeneration and memory impairment. Caffeic acid (CA) acts as an antioxidant via decreasing brain oxidative stress. This study aims to investigate the advantages of CA in alleviating the loss of memory and neurogenesis production in the hippocampus in aged rats activated by D-gal. Fifty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats were unpredictably arranged into six groups. In the D-gal group, rats were administered D-gal (50 mg/kg) by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection. For the CA groups, rats received 20 or 40 mg/kg CA by oral gavage. In the co-treated groups, rats received D-gal (50 mg/kg) and CA (20 or 40 mg/kg) for eight weeks. The results of novel object location (NOL) and novel object recognition (NOR) tests showed memory deficits. Moreover, a decline of neurogenesis in the hippocampus was detected in rats that received D-gal by detecting rat endothelial cell antigen-1 (RECA-1)/Ki-67, 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU)/neuronal nuclear protein (NeuN), doublecortin (DCX) by means of staining to evaluate blood vessel associated proliferating cells, neuronal cell survival and premature neurons, respectively. By contrast, CA attenuated these effects. Our results postulate that CA attenuated the impairment of memory in D-gal-stimulated aging by up-regulating levels of hippocampal neurogenesis. 相似文献

Alloreactive donor T cells are the driving force in the induction of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), yet little is known about T cell metabolism in response to alloantigens after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Here, we have demonstrated that donor T cells undergo metabolic reprograming after allogeneic HCT. Specifically, we employed a murine allogeneic BM transplant model and determined that T cells switch from fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) and pyruvate oxidation via the tricarboxylic (TCA) cycle to aerobic glycolysis, thereby increasing dependence upon glutaminolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway. Glycolysis was required for optimal function of alloantigen-activated T cells and induction of GVHD, as inhibition of glycolysis by targeting mTORC1 or 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) ameliorated GVHD mortality and morbidity. Together, our results indicate that donor T cells use glycolysis as the predominant metabolic process after allogeneic HCT and suggest that glycolysis has potential as a therapeutic target for the control of GVHD. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Current therapies offer scant benefit to patients with advanced esophageal adenocarcinoma. We investigated the effects of Sorafenib, a multifunctional kinase inhibitor, on several growth regulatory pathways that control cell growth and survival in SEG-1 cells derived from Barrett's adenocarcinoma. METHODS: SEG-1 cells were exposed to acidified medium or taurocholic acid, with and without pre-incubation with Sorafenib. Cyclin D1 and E, c-Myc, and Bcl-2 expression levels as well as STAT3 activations were determined by Western blotting. Cyclin D1 mRNA was measured by real-time PCR. Apoptosis was assessed by TUNEL assay. RESULTS: Sorafenib significantly inhibited SEG-1 cell proliferation stimulated by acid or bile acid treatments and reduced cell survival. This drug significantly reduced the up-regulations of cyclin D1, cyclin E, c-Myc, and Bcl-2 as well as the activation of STAT3 in SEG-1 cells. CONCLUSIONS: These results support a rational basis for future clinical studies to assess the therapeutic benefit of Sorafenib in esophageal adenocarcinoma. 相似文献

As an experimental model to study the mechanism of large‐scale network plasticity of the juvenile brain, functional compensation after neonatal brain damage was studied in rats that received unilateral decortication at postnatal day 5. These animals exhibited a marked ability in reaching and grasping movements in the contralesional side of the forelimb when tested at 10–14 weeks of age. Additional lesion of the sensorimotor cortex in the remaining contralesional hemisphere at this stage resulted in severe impairment of both forelimbs. It was suggested that the sensorimotor cortex on the contralesional side was controlling the movements of both forelimbs. Following the injection of an anterograde tracer into the remaining sensorimotor cortex, the corticofugal axons from the remaining sensorimotor cortex were found to issue aberrant projections to the contralateral red nucleus, contralateral superior colliculus, contralateral pontine nuclei, ipsilateral dorsal column nucleus and ipsilateral gray matter of the cervical spinal cord, all of which appeared to be necessary for the control of contralesional forelimb movements. These results suggest that the forelimb movements on the contralesional side were compensated by large‐scale reorganization of the corticofugal axons from the remaining sensorimotor cortex. 相似文献
