Background To prove the internal connection, we deciphered the effect of cinnamaldehyde on kidney senescence through establishing animal and cell models.Methods In vivo, a rat senescence model was constructed using D-galactose (D-gal), and the modeled rats were further treated with cinnamaldehyde. In vitro, rat renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK-52E) were transfected with miR-155 mimic or inhibitor and then treated with cinnamaldehyde, D-gal or PI3K inhibitor (LY294002). The serum levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (Scr) of the rats were measured by an automatic biochemical analyzer. Pathological changes of kidney were determined by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The senescence and viability of NRK-52E cells were assessed by SA-β-gal staining and CCK-8 assay, respectively. The levels of miR-155, p-PI3K/PI3K, p-Akt/Akt, LC3B (LC3-II and LC3-I) and Beclin1 were detected by qRT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, or western blot.Results D-gal elevated the levels of BUN, Scr and miR-155 in the kidney, induced the renal pathological damage, inhibited the cell viability, increased the numbers of SA-β-gal-, LC3B- and Beclin1-positive cells and upregulated the levels of LC3-II/LC3-I and Beclin1 both in the kidney and cells. Cinnamaldehyde reversed D-gal-induced effects on the kidney and cells, and moreover, the cinnamaldehyde-induced anti-D-gal effects on cells could be suppressed by miR-155 mimic but promoted by miR-155 inhibitor. LY294002 potentiated D-gal-induced effects, and reversed cinnamaldehyde- and miR-155 inhibitor-caused impacts on the PI3K/Akt pathway and LC3-II/LC3-I level in D-gal-induced cells.Conclusion Cinnamaldehyde attenuates kidney senescence and injury through PI3K/Akt pathway-mediated autophagy via downregulating miR-155.

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer mortality because of its metastatic potential and high malignancy. The discovery of new applications for old drugs is a shortcut for cancer therapy. We recently investigated the antitumor effect of digoxin, a well-established drug for treating heart failure, against nonsmall cell lung cancer A549 and H1299 cells. Digoxin inhibited the proliferation and colony-forming ability of the two cell lines and arrested the cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase in A549 cells and the G2/M phase in H1299 cells. Mitochondria-mediated apoptosis was induced in A549 cells but not in H1299 cells after treatment with digoxin. Moreover, digoxin inhibited the migration, invasion, adhesion and epithelial–mesenchymal transition of A549 and H1299 cells. Autophagy was induced in both cell lines after treatment with digoxin, with an increase in autophagosome foci. In addition, digoxin inhibited the phosphorylation of Akt, mTOR and p70S6K, signaling molecules of the PI3K/Akt pathway that are known to be involved in tumor cell survival, proliferation, metastasis and autophagy. Our findings suggest that digoxin has the potential to be used for therapy for human nonsmall cell lung cancer, but further evidence is required.

Background Diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycaemia. Tangningtongluo Tablet (TNTL) is an inpatient formula extensively utilized to treat diabetes mellitus (DM), but the protective mechanism is not clear. This study aimed to investigate the relevant mechanisms by which TNTL affects pancreatic damage in diabetic mice and autophagy. Methods The impact of TNTL on pancreatic damage in diabetic mice in vitro and in vivo was investigated via glucose and lipid metabolism analyses, HE staining, CCK-8, TUNEL staining, Annexin V/PI, and Western blotting. Molecular docking and Western blotting were used to verify the results of network pharmacological analysis, which was carried out to explore the mechanism by which TNTL affects DM. The autophagosome levels were visualized via RFP-GFP-LC3 and transmission electron microscopy, and lysosomal function was evaluated via Lysotracker red staining. Western blot, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect the expression of the autophagy proteins LC3, p62 and LAMP2. Results Compared with the model group, TNTL protected pancreas from oxidative stress, decreased the level of MDA, increased the levels of SOD and GSH-px, induced the occurrence of autophagy and decreased the levels of apoptotic factors. Moreover, TNTL inhibited the protein expression of p-PI3K, p-Akt and p-mTOR, increased the levels of LC3 and LAMP2 and decreased the level of p62, and the autophagy inhibitor CQ blocked the protective effect of TNTL on pancreatic damage in diabetic mice. Conclusion These results demonstrated that TNTL ameliorated pancreatic damage in diabetic mice by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling and regulating autophagy.

Ethnopharmacological relevance Guizhi Fuling Wan (GFW) is a traditional Chinese medicine used to remove blood stasis and dissipate phlegm for treating gynecological diseases that was invented by Zhang Zhongjing in the Eastern Han dynasty. In recent years, GFW has been widely used to treat patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Clinical and animal studies have shown that it is effective in the treatment of PCOS, but its mechanism is unknown. Generally, it works by regulating autophagy via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Aim of the study This study investigated the effects and mechanism of GFW in PCOS rats with insulin resistance (IR) in order to provide better understanding of its observed clinical effects and a theoretical basis for the study of traditional Chinese medicine. Materials and methods Eighty-four female Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly divided into seven groups (n = 12 per group): 1) control, 2) PCOS model, 3) low-dose GFW, 4) medium-dose GFW, 5) high-dose GFW, 6) metformin , and 7) medium-dose GFW plus LY294002 . In all non-control groups, we induced PCOS through daily letrozole combined with intragastric high-fat emulsion for 21 days. After treatment, rats were sacrificed and serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), testosterone (T), progesterone , luteinizing hormone (LH), 17β-estradiol, fasting insulin (FINS), and fasting plasma glucose levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The LH/FSH ratios and HOMA-IR values were calculated. Ovarian morphology was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, and all follicles were counted under a microscope. MDC-positive vesicles were used as markers to detect autophagy, and the expression levels of p62, Beclin1 , and LC3-II were examined by immunostaining. Western blotting was used to measure PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway activation, granulosa cell apoptosis , and autophagy. Results Compared with the PCOS model group, GFW-treated rats had less atretic and cystic follicles, and more mature follicles and corpus lutea. The GFW-treated rats had lower serum T, LH, and FINS levels than the PCOS model group, as well as lower LH/FSH ratios and HOMA-IR values. GFW treatment resulted in significantly reduced levels of cleaved-Caspase-3, cleaved-Caspase-9, BAX, Beclin1, Atg5, and LC3-II. Phosphorylation of PI3K, AKT, and mTOR was significantly higher in GFW-treated rats compared with the PCOS model group. The phosphorylation of PI3K, AKT, and mTOR was decreased with the use of a PI3K antagonist. Conclusions Our results indicate that GFW inhibited granulosa cell autophagy and promoted follicular development to attenuate ovulation disorder in PCOS-IR rats. This was associated with activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

To determine the effects and the underlying mechanism of diosgenin (DSG) and 5-methoxypsoralen (5-MOP), two main active components in the classical Chinese prescription Hu-Lu-Ba-Wan (HLBW), on insulin resistance, HepG2 cells were incubated in medium containing insulin. Treatments with DSG, 5-MOP, and their combination were performed, respectively. The result showed that the incubation of HepG2 cells with high concentration insulin markedly decreased glucose consumption and glycogen synthesis. However, treatment with DSG, 5-MOP, or their combination significantly reversed the condition and increased the phosphorylated expression of estrogen receptor-α (ERα), sarcoma (Src), Akt/protein kinase B, glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), and the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase p85 (PI3Kp85). At the transcriptional level, expression of the genes mentioned above also increased except for the negative regulation of GSK-3β mRNA. The increased expression of glucose transport-4 (GLUT-4) was meanwhile observed through immunofluorescence. Nevertheless, the synergistic effect of DSG and 5-MOP on improving glycometabolism was not obvious in the present study. These results suggested that DSG and 5-MOP may improve insulin resistance through an ER-mediated PI3K/Akt activation pathway which may be a new strategy for type 2 diabetes mellitus, especially for women in an estrogen-deficient condition.

Section
Background
To evaluate the effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) Dovitinib, Lapatinib, and Telatinib on angiogenesis in zebrafish, and to explore the regulatory mechanism of PI3K/AKT pathway activator SC79 on these inhibitory effects.
Section
Methods
Transgenic Fli-1:EGFP zebrafish embryos were used to observe the development and morphological changes of intersegmental vessels (ISVs) by fluorescence microscopy. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was employed to detect the expression of angiogenesis-related genes including kdrl, flt1, vegfaa, akt2, and pik3r1. After determining the maximum tolerated concentration (MTC) of each compound, the effects of single-drug treatment and SC79 co-treatment on vascular development and gene expression were observed.
Section
Results
Dovitinib (0.488 µM) and Telatinib (0.031 µM) significantly reduced the number (by 16.9% and 33.8%, respectively, P < 0.001) and length (by 14.9% and 23.3%, respectively, P < 0.001) of complete ISVs, while Lapatinib (1.95 µM) showed no significant inhibitory effect. Gene expression analysis revealed that Dovitinib mainly downregulated flt1 expression ( P < 0.01), whereas Telatinib more broadly downregulated kdrl ( P < 0.05), flt1 ( P < 0.001), and akt2 ( P < 0.01) expression. SC79 (2.44 nM) promoted angiogenesis, increasing ISV number ( P < 0.01) and length ( P < 0.05), while upregulating kdrl (2.03-fold, P < 0.001), flt1 (1.31-fold, P < 0.05), vegfaa (1.45-fold, P < 0.01), akt2 (1.64-fold, P < 0.01), and pik3r1 (1.48-fold, P < 0.05) expression. Co-treatment experiments showed that all three TKIs could counteract SC79’s pro-angiogenic effects to varying degrees, with Telatinib showing the strongest effect. Under SC79 co-treatment conditions, all TKIs significantly downregulated kdrl expression ( P < 0.001), but had differential effects on other genes: Dovitinib mainly downregulated flt1 ( P < 0.05), Lapatinib specifically downregulated vegfaa ( P < 0.01), akt2 ( P < 0.05), and pik3r1 ( P < 0.05), while Telatinib simultaneously downregulated flt1 ( P < 0.01), akt2 ( P < 0.05), and pik3r1 ( P < 0.01).
Section
Conclusions
Dovitinib and Telatinib exhibit significant anti-angiogenic effects, while Lapatinib is less effective. Different TKIs inhibit angiogenesis by regulating different signaling molecules: Dovitinib primarily targets VEGF receptors, Telatinib targets both receptors and the downstream PI3K/AKT pathway, and Lapatinib shows inhibitory effects on VEGF ligand expression in the SC79 background. SC79 promotes angiogenesis by activating the PI3K/AKT pathway and partially reverses the inhibitory effects of TKIs. These findings provide new insights for targeted therapy of abnormal angiogenesis in ophthalmic diseases, suggesting that precise regulation of angiogenesis may be achieved by modulating the balance between TKIs and the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Background A large proportion of the patients with cancer do not respond to immunotherapies. Recent studies suggested an important role for tumor-infiltrating cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) in enhancing response to immunotherapy. Here, we aim to identify gene that induce proliferative and cytotoxic states of CD8 + T cells, and to investigate its effect on CAR-T cells against colorectal cancer. Methods Correlation between the expression of IFI35 with the activation and cytotoxicity of CD8 + T cells was assessed with TCGA and proteomic databases. Then we constructed murine colon cancer cells over-expressing IFI35 and tested their effect on anti-tumor immunity in both immunodeficient and immunocompetent mouse models. Flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry were performed to assess the immune microenvironment. Western blot analysis was used to identify the potential down-stream signaling pathway regulated by IFI35. We further investigated the efficacy of the rhIFI35 protein in combination with immunotherapeutic treatment. Results The transcriptional and proteomic analysis of the activation and cytotoxicity of CD8 + T cells in human cancer samples demonstrated that IFI35 expression is correlated with increased CD8 + T cell infiltration and predicted a better outcome in colorectal cancer. The number and cytotoxicity of CD8 + T cells were significantly increased in IFI35-overexpressing tumors. Mechanistically, we identified that the IFNγ-STAT1-IRF7 axis stimulated IFI35 expression, and that IFI35-mediated regulation of CD8 + T cell proliferation and cytotoxicity was dependent on PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in vitro. Furthermore, IFI35 protein enhanced the efficacy of CAR-T cells against colorectal cancer cells. Conclusion Our findings identify IFI35 as a new biomarker that can enhance the proliferation and function of CD8 + T cells, as well as increase the efficacy of CAR-T cells against colorectal cancer cells.

Ethnopharmacological relevance Zuojin Pill (ZJP) is a classic prescription composed of Coptis chinensis and Tetradium ruticarpum (A.Juss.) T.G.Hartley, which is often used in the treatment of digestive system diseases . Aim of this study The purpose of this study was to explore the therapeutic effect and potential mechanism of ZJP on chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) induced by MNNG . Materials and methods The GES-1 and rat model of CAG was established by MNNG. Detection of cell viability, morphological changes and proliferation of GES-1 by CCK-8 and high content screening (HCS) assay. G-17, IL-8 and TNF-α in rat serum were detected by ELISA kit. The expression of related mRNA and protein on TGF-β1/PI3K/Akt signal axis were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot . Results The results showed that ZJP could significantly improve the GES-1 damage induced by MNNG and improve the gastric histomorphology of CAG rats. The intervention of ZJP could significantly reduce the content of G-17 and inflammatory factors IL-8, TNF- α, IL-6 and IL-1β, inhibit the expression of TGF-β1, PI3K and their downstream signals p-Akt, p-mTOR, P70S6K, and promote the expression level of PTEN, LC3-II and Beclin-1. Conclusion ZJP has a good therapeutic effect on CAG induced by MNNG, which may be closely related to the inhibition of TGF-β1/PI3K/Akt signal pathway.

A growing amount of evidence has confirmed the crucial role of the prolyl isomerase PIN1 in aging and age-related diseases. However, the mechanism of PIN1 in age-related hearing loss (ARHL) remains unclear. Pathologically, ARHL is primarily due to the loss and dysfunction of hair cells (HCs) and spiral ganglion cells (SGCs) in the cochlea. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the role of PIN1 in protecting hair cells and auditory HEI-OC1 cells from senescence. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence were used to detect the PIN1 protein level in the serum of ARHL patients and C57BL/6 mice in different groups, and in the SGCs and HCs of young and aged C57BL/6 mice. In addition, a model of HEI-OC1 cell senescence induced by H2O2 was used. Adult C57BL/6 mice were treated with juglone, or juglone and NAC, for 4 weeks. Interestingly, we found that the PIN1 protein expression decreased in the serum of patients with ARHL, in senescent HEI-OC1 cells, and in the cochlea of aged mice. Moreover, under H2O2 and juglone treatment, a large amount of ROS was produced, and phosphorylation of p53 was induced. Importantly, PIN1 expression was significantly increased by treatment with the p53 inhibitor pifithrin-α. Overexpression of PIN1 reversed the increased level of p-p53 and rescued HEI-OC1 cells from senescence. Furthermore, PIN1 mediated cellular senescence by the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. In vivo data from C57BL/6 mice showed that treatment with juglone led to hearing loss. Taken together, these findings demonstrated that PIN1 may act as a vital modulator in hair cell and HEI-OC1 cell senescence.

HECT domain and Ankyrin repeat-containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1 (HACE1) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase involving oxidative stress, an important contributor in cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury (CIRI). It was proposed to be associated with the PI3K/AKT pathway and Nrf2 nuclear translocation, which are important players of oxidative stress. Therefore, we supposed that HACE1 might affect CIRI by regulating the PI3K/AKT/Nrf2 pathway. Here, we used the transient middle cerebral artery occlusion-reperfusion (tMCAO/R) model to induce CIRI in rats and found lower HACE1 expression in ischemic rats compared with the control. To explore the exact role of HACE1, the lentivirus vector carrying the HACE1 sequence was administrated to rats by intracerebroventricular injection (1 × 10 9 TU/mL, 9 μL) one week before tMCAO/R operation. HACE1 overexpression alleviated tMCAO/R-induced brain damage in rats. Further studies revealed that it reduced oxidative stress via activating the PI3K/AKT/Nrf2 pathway, thereby inhibiting neuronal apoptosis in the ischemic penumbra of rats with CIRI. Then, differentiated PC12 cells were cultured in oxygen-glucose deprivation-reoxygenation (OGD/R) conditions (OGD: 1 % O 2 , 94 % N2, and 5 % CO 2 ; R: normal atmosphere) to simulate CIRI in vitro . Similarly, HACE1 overexpression inhibited neuronal apoptosis caused by OGD/R treatment. The PI3K inhibitor LY294002 reversed the inhibitory effects of HACE1 overexpression on oxidative stress in OGD/R-injured cells, accompanied by the inactivated AKT/Nrf2 pathway. Altogether, our results suggest that HACE1 protects against oxidative stress-induced neuronal apoptosis in CIRI by activating the PI3K/AKT/Nrf2 pathway, providing a new insight into the CIRI treatment.

Acute liver injury (ALI) is an injury to liver tissue caused by viruses, drugs, alcohol, and oxygen deprivation, and is one of the most common and serious clinical disorders. Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound isolated from forsythia and has excellent anti-inflammatory properties. However, the effect and mechanisms of HT in ALI remain unclear. We used the LPS/D-GalN induced experimental ALI mouse model and AML12 cells to reveal the efficacy and potential mechanisms of HT in ALI, and HE staining was used for the evaluation of pathologies. A biochemical assay was used to detect changes in liver function, RNA-seq was conducted to reveal the underlying mechanisms of HT for ALI, and WB, RT-qPCR, and IF were used to assess the effects of HT action. Furthermore, an in vitro ALI model against HT in AML12 cells induced by LPS/D-GalN was used to assess the HT protection mechanism. HT significant alleviated LPS/D-GalN-induced ALI in the mice by suppressing inflammatory. In terms of RNA-seq, HT improved the TNF, ECM-receptor interaction, and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, and it downregulated the mRNA levels of VCAM-1, CXCL5, TNF-α and IL-6 in the liver. Mechanically, HT alleviated LPS/D-GalN in the mice by targeting TNF-α, thereby inhibiting the TNF-α/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Objective This present study aims to assess the effect of pirfenidone (PFD) on inhibiting fibroblast proliferation, migration or adhesion in vitro and reducing laminectomy-induced epidural fibrosis in vivo. Methods The effect of PFD on proliferation inhibition was evaluated with flow cytometry, CCK-8, EdU and western-blotting assays. Altered properties in migration and adhesion were confirmed by wound-scratch, transwell, immunofluorescence (IF), cell adhesion and western-blotting assays. Additionally, fifty male healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to laminectomy and then treated with various concentrations of PFD. After 4 weeks, the degree of epidural fibrosis was evaluated by histological analysis. Results In vitro, the results of flow cytometry, CCK-8, EdU and western-blotting assays showed that PFD reduced fibroblast proliferation by a dose-dependent manner. And the results of wound-scratch, transwell, IF, cell adhesion and western-blotting assays showed that the migration and adhesion of fibroblasts could be inhibited and the cytoskeleton could also be altered in a dose-dependent manner. And the inhibitory effect of PFD could be partially reversed in the PI3K overexpression experiment, which indicated that the capability of PFD to inhibit fibroblast proliferation, migration and adhesion might be through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway . In vivo, an obvious reduction in epidural fibrosis was observed in groups topically treated with PFD. Conclusions Topical PFD application obviously suppressed laminectomy-induced epidural fibrosis, possibly by inhibiting fibroblast proliferation, migration and adhesion via the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. PFD may be a safe and effective pharmaceutical to reduce clinical epidural fibrosis.
