Argan oil prevents down-regulation induced by endotoxin on liver fatty acid oxidation and gluconeogenesis and on peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 alpha, (PGC-1alpha), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) and estrogen related receptor alpha (ERRalpha)
In patients with sepsis, liver metabolism and its capacity to provide other organs with energetic substrates are impaired. This and many other pathophysiological changes seen in human patients are reproduced in mice injected with purified endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS). In the present study, down-regulation of genes involved in hepatic fatty acid oxidation (FAOx) and gluconeogenesis in mice exposed to LPS was challenged by nutritional intervention with Argan oil. Mice given a standard chow supplemented or not with either 6% (w/w) Argan oil (AO) or 6% (w/w) olive oil (OO) prior to exposure to LPS were explored for liver gene expressions assessed by mRNA transcript levels and/or enzyme a…
Effets d’extraits de raquette du cactus -Opuntia ficus indica- sur la modulation du stress oxydant et du processus inflammatoire liés à la déficience en acyl-CoA oxydase 1 et caractérisation d’une lignée cellulaire BV-2 inactivée pour l'ACOX 1
Acyl-CoA oxidase 1 (ACOX1) deficiency is a rare and severe peroxisomal leukodystrophy associated with a very long-chain fatty acids β-oxidation defect. As peroxisomal defects in microglia appear to be a key component of physiopathogenesis in ACOX1 deficiency, we used the murine BV-2 microglial cell line as model: (i) to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of Opuntia ficus-indica cactus cladode extracts; (ii) to characterize a new BV-2 ACOX1 deficient cell line recently generated in our laboratory by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. In the first part of this work, the microglia activation, achieved by BV-2 cells exposition to four structurally and biologically well-defined lip…
Protective Effect of Cactus Cladode Extracts on Peroxisomal Functions in Microglial BV-2 Cells Activated by Different Lipopolysaccharides
International audience; In this study, we aimed to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of Opuntia ficus-indica cactus cladode extracts in microglia BV-2 cells. Inflammation associated with microglia activation in neuronal injury can be achieved by LPS exposure. Using four different structurally and biologically well-characterized LPS serotypes, we revealed a structure-related differential effect of LPS on fatty acid β-oxidation and antioxidant enzymes in peroxisomes: Escherichia coli-LPS decreased ACOX1 activity while Salmonella minnesota-LPS reduced only catalase activity. Different cactus cladode extracts showed an antioxidant effect through microglial catalase activ…
