Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most common chemotherapeutic anti-cancer drugs. However, its clinical use is restricted by serious cardiotoxicity. Oleoylethanolamide (OEA), a structural congener of endocannabinoid anandamide, is the endogenous agonist of peroxisome proliferator activated-receptor α (PPARα) and transient receptor potential cation channel vanilloid-1 (TRPV1), and involved in many physiological processes. The present study aimed to determine whether OEA treatment protects against DOX-induced cytotoxicity (DIC) and gain insights into the underlying mechanism that mediate these effects. Our data revealed that Oleoylethanolamide treatment improved the myocardial structure in DOX-challenged mice by attenuating cardiac oxidative stress and cell apoptosis. OEA also alleviated DOX-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis dysregulation in HL-1 cardiomyocyte. These effects were mediated by activation of TRPV1 and upregulation of PI3K/ Akt signaling pathway. Inhibition of TRPV1 and PI3K reversed the protective effects of OEA. Taken together, our data suggested that OEA protects against DIC through a TRPV1- mediated PI3K/ Akt pathway.
The reason for high-difficulty nitrogen removal of aromatic N-heterocyclic compounds in petroleum fractions was investigated from the main thought of “NiWS property - Reaction behavior - DFT calculation”. The properties of the used catalyst were characterized by a series of techniques with the aim of providing the basis for model construction in the DFT calculations. The kinetic experiments in fixed-bed reactor revealed that although 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (THQ1) and decahydroquinoline (DHQ), o-ethylaniline (OEA) exhibited relatively high yields in the HDN reaction of quinoline and indole respectively, they were all able to show high conversions and HDN rates when reacted as feedstocks alone. The study of product normalizations in the reaction system of the mixed feedstocks demonstrated that the difficulty of conversion of THQ1 and DHQ in quinoline HDN was mainly due to the inhibition effect of quinoline feedstock. While in the HDN of indole, the presence of the intermediate product OEA was the main factor for the low conversion of indole. This phenomenon of inhibition originating from within the molecular reaction network was proposed as N-N self-inhibition effect for the first time. The DFT calculations suggested that the inhibition of quinoline on THQ1 could be attributed to the adsorption advantage of quinoline, while the inhibition on DHQ was mainly due to the steric hindrance effect of DHQ itself. And the inhibition effect of OEA on indole can be mainly attributed to its greater nucleophilicity and stronger adsorption ability on the active sites compared with IND.
