    (2023) SOUZA, Lidiane Moreira; GOMES, Mariana Janini; BRANDAO, Bruna Brasil; PAGAN, Luana Urbano; GATTO, Mariana; DAMATTO, Felipe Cesar; RODRIGUES, Eder Anderson; PONTES, Thierres Hernani Dias; BORIM, Patricia Aparecida; FERNANDES, Ana Angelica Henrique; MURATA, Gilson Masahiro; ZORNOFF, Leonardo Antonio Mamede; AZEVEDO, Paula Schmidt; OKOSHI, Katashi; OKOSHI, Marina Politi
    Although current guidelines recommend resistance exercise in combination with aerobic training to increase muscle strength and prevent skeletal muscle loss during cardiac remodeling, its effects are not clear. In this study, we evaluated the effects of resistance training on cardiac remodeling and the soleus muscle in long-term myocardial infarction (MI) rats. Methods: Three months after MI induction, male Wistar rats were assigned to Sham (n = 14), MI (n = 9), and resistance exercised MI (R-MI, n = 13) groups. The rats trained three times a week for 12 weeks on a climbing ladder. An echocardiogram was performed before and after training. Protein expression of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1/protein kinase B (Akt)/rapamycin target complex (mTOR) pathway was analyzed by Western blot. Results: Mortality rate was higher in MI than Sham; in the R-MI group, mortality rate was between that in MI and Sham and did not differ significantly from either group. Exercise increased maximal load capacity without changing cardiac structure and left ventricular function in infarcted rats. Infarction size did not differ between infarcted groups. Catalase activity was lower in MI than Sham and glutathione peroxidase lower in MI than Sham and R-MI. Protein expression of p70S6K was lower in MI than Sham and p-FoxO3 was lower in MI than Sham and R-MI. Energy metabolism did not differ between groups, except for higher phosphofrutokinase activity in R-MI than MI. Conclusion: Resistance exercise is safe and increases muscle strength regardless structural and functional cardiac changes in myocardial-infarcted rats. This exercise modality attenuates soleus glycolytic metabolism changes and improves the expression of proteins required for protein turnover and antioxidant response.

    Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Autophagy Markers in Soleus Muscle Disuse-Induced Atrophy of Rats Treated with Fish Oil
    (2021) MARZUCA-NASSR, Gabriel Nasri; KUWABARA, Wilson Mitsuo Tatagiba; VITZEL, Kaio Fernando; MURATA, Gilson Masahiro; TORRES, Rosangela Pavan; MANCINI-FILHO, Jorge; ALBA-LOUREIRO, Tatiana Carolina; CURI, Rui
    Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and autophagy pathways are implicated in disuse muscle atrophy. The effects of high eicosapentaenoic (EPA) or high docosahexaenoic (DHA) fish oils on soleus muscle ERS and autophagy markers were investigated in a rat hindlimb suspension (HS) atrophy model. Adult Wistar male rats received daily by gavage supplementation (0.3 mL per 100 g b.w.) of mineral oil or high EPA or high DHA fish oils (FOs) for two weeks. Afterward, the rats were subjected to HS and the respective treatments concomitantly for an additional two-week period. After four weeks, we evaluated ERS and autophagy markers in the soleus muscle. Results were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni post hoc test. Gastrocnemius muscle omega-6/omega-3 fatty acids (FAs) ratio was decreased by both FOs indicating the tissue incorporation of omega-3 fatty acids. HS altered (p < 0.05) the protein content (decreasing total p38 and BiP and increasing p-JNK2/total JNK2 ratio, and caspase 3) and gene expressions (decreasing BiP and increasing IRE1 and PERK) of ERS and autophagy (decreasing Beclin and increasing LC3 and ATG14) markers in soleus. Both FOs attenuated (p < 0.05) the increase in PERK and ATG14 expressions induced by HS. Thus, both FOs could potentially attenuate ERS and autophagy in skeletal muscles undergoing atrophy.

    Dexamethasone programs lower fatty acid absorption and reduced PPAR-gamma and fat/CD36 expression in the jejunum of the adult rat offspring
    (2021) SOUZA, Dailson Nogueira de; TEIXEIRA, Caio Jordao; VERONESI, Vanessa Barbosa; MURATA, Gilson Masahiro; SANTOS-SILVA, Junia Carolina; HECHT, Fernanda Ballerini; VICENTE, Julia Modesto; BORDIN, Silvana; ANHE, Gabriel Forato
    The progeny of rats born and breastfed by mothers receiving dexamethasone (DEX) during pregnancy exhibits permanent reduction in body weight and adiposity but the precise mechanisms related to this programming are not fully understood. In order to clarify this issue, the present study investigated key aspects of lipoprotein production and lipid metabolism by the liver and the intestine that would explain the reduced adiposity seen in the adult offspring exposed to DEX in utero. Female Wistar rats were treated with DEX (0.1 mg/kg/day) between the 15th and the 21st days of pregnancy, while control mothers were treated with vehicle. Male offspring born to control mothers were nursed by either adoptive control mothers (CTL/CTL) or DEX-treated mothers (CTL/DEX). Male offspring born to DEX-treated mothers were nursed by either control mothers (DEX/CTL) or adoptive DEX-treated mothers (DEX/DEX). We found that only the male DEX/DEX offspring had reduced adiposity. Additionally, male DEX/DEX progeny had lower circulating triacylglycerol (TAG) levels only in fed-state. The four groups of offspring presented similar energy expenditure, respiratory quotient and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) production. On the other hand, DEX/DEX rats displayed reduced TAG levels after gavage with olive oil and reduced expression of fatty acid translocase Cd36 (Fat/Cd36) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (Pparg) in the jejunum. Altogether, our study supports the notion that reduced fat absorption by the jejunum may contribute to the lower adiposity of the adult offspring born and breastfed by mothers treated with DEX during pregnancy.

    Recreational Dance Practice Modulates Lymphocyte Profile and Function in Diabetic Women
    (2021) PASSOS, Maria Elizabeth Pereira; BORGES, Leandro; SANTOS-OLIVEIRA, Laiane Cristina dos; ALECRIM-ZEZA, Amanda Lins; LOBATO, Tiago Bertola; OLIVEIRA, Heloisa Helena de; SANTOS, Cesar Miguel Momesso; DINIZ, Vinicius Leonardo Sousa; ISER-BEM, Patricia Nancy; MANOEL, Richelieau; MURATA, Gilson Masahiro; HIRABARA, Sandro Massao; CURI, Rui; PITHON-CURI, Tania Cristina; HATANAKA, Elaine; GORJAO, Renata
    This study aimed to investigate the impact of a 16-week dance-based aerobic exercise program on lymphocyte function in healthy and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) women. We enrolled 23 women: 11 with T2DM and 12 non-diabetic controls. Initially, we performed anthropometry and body composition measurements, afterwards, plasma levels of C-reactive protein, lipids, and glucose were determined. We used flow cytometry to measure the CD25 and CD28 expression in circulating lymphocytes, T-regulatory (Treg) cell percentage, lymphocyte proliferation, and cytokines released by cultured lymphocytes. The T2DM group had a lower proportion of CD28+ cells and a higher percentage of Treg lymphocytes and proliferative capacity at the baseline compared with the control group. After 16 weeks of the program, differences in lymphocytes between the T2DM and the control groups disappeared. The dance program promoted IL-10 increase in both groups. We found decreased IL-4, IL-2, and IL-6 secretion in lymphocytes from the control group and increased IL-17 secretion and IL-10/IL-17 ratio in the T2DM group after the program. The program promoted marked changes in lymphocytes in diabetic women, leading to a balance between the different profiles.

    A novel supplement with yeast 6-glucan, prebiotic, minerals and Silybum marianum synergistically modulates metabolic and inflammatory pathways and improves steatosis in obese mice
    (2021) NEHMI, Victor Abou; MURATA, Gilson Masahiro; MORAES, Ruan Carlos Macedo de; LIMA, Gabriely Cristina Alves; MIRANDA, Danielle Araujo De; RADLOFF, Katrin; COSTA, Raquel Galvao Figueredo; JESUS, Joyce de Cassia Rosa de; FREITAS, Jessica Alves De; VIANA, Nayara Izabel; PIMENTA, Ruan; LEITE, Katia Ramos Moreira; OTOCH, Jose Pinhata; PESSOA, Ana Flavia Marcal
    Objective: To evaluate the synergic effects of a novel oral supplement formulation, containing prebiotics, yeast beta-glucans, minerals and silymarin (Silybum marianum), on lipid and glycidic metabolism, inflammatory and mitochondrial proteins of the liver, in control and high-fat diet-induced obese mice. Methods: After an acclimation period, 32 male C57BL/6 mice were divided into the following groups: nonfat diet (NFD) vehicle, NFD supplemented, high-fat diet (HFD) vehicle and HFD supplemented. The vehicle and experimental formulation were administered orally by gavage once a day during the last four weeks of the diet (28 consecutive days). We then evaluated energy homeostasis, inflammation, and mitochondrial protein expression in these groups of mice. Results: After four weeks of supplementation, study groups experienced reduced glycemia, dyslipidemia, fat, and hepatic fibrosis levels. Additionally, proliferator-activated receptor-alpha, AMP-activated protein kinase-1 alpha, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor c co-activator-1 alpha, and mitochondrial transcription factor A expression levels were augmented; however, levels of inhibitor of nuclear factor-kappa B kinase subunit a and p65 nuclear factor-kappa B expression, and oxidative markers were reduced. Notably, the cortisol/C-reactive protein ratio, a well-characterized marker of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis immune interface status, was found to be modulated by the supplement. Conclusion: We discovered that the novel supplement was able to modify different antioxidant, metabolic and inflammatory pathways, improving the energy homeostasis and inflammatory status, and consequently alleviated hepatic steatosis.

    The Symbiotic Effect of a New Nutraceutical with Yeast beta-Glucan, Prebiotics, Minerals, and Silybum marianum (Silymarin) for Recovering Metabolic Homeostasis via Pgc-1 alpha, Il-6, and Il-10 Gene Expression in a Type-2 Diabetes Obesity Model
    (2022) SANTAMARINA, Aline Boveto; MORAES, Ruan Carlos Macedo; NEHMI FILHO, Victor; MURATA, Gilson Masahiro; FREITAS, Jessica Alves de; MIRANDA, Danielle Araujo de; CERQUEIRA, Anderson Romerio Azevedo; COSTA, Soraia Katia Pereira; FERREIRA, Ana Flavia Fernandes; BRITTO, Luiz Roberto; CAMARGO, Juliana Alves de; OLIVEIRA, Daniela Rodrigues de; JESUS, Flavia Neto de; OTOCH, Jose Pinhata; PESSOA, Ana Flavia Marcal
    The use of natural products and derivatives for the prevention and control of non-communicable chronic diseases, such as type-2 diabetes (T2D), obesity, and hepatic steatosis is a way to achieve homeostasis through different metabolic pathways. Thus, male C57BL/6 mice were divided into the following groups: high-fat diet (HFD) vehicle, HFD + Supplemented, HFD + Supplemented_S, and isolated compounds. The vehicle and experimental formulations were administered orally by gavage once a day over the four weeks of the diet (28 consecutive days). We evaluated the energy homeostasis, cytokines, and mitochondrial gene expression in these groups of mice. After four weeks of supplementation, only the new nutraceutical group (HFD + Supplemented) experienced reduced fasting glycemia, insulin, HOMA index, HOMA-beta, dyslipidemia, ectopic fat deposition, and hepatic fibrosis levels. Additionally, the PPAR gamma coactivator 1 alpha (Pgc-1 alpha), interleukin-6 (Il-6), and interleukin-10 (Il-10) gene expression were augmented, while hepatic steatosis decreased and liver parenchyma was recovered. The glutathione-S-transferase activity status was found to be modulated by the supplement. We discovered that the new nutraceutical was able to improve insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis mainly by regulating IL 6, IL 10, and Pgc-1 alpha. gene expression.

    Small intestine remodeling in male Goto-Kakizaki rats
    (2021) PEREIRA, Joice Naiara Bertaglia; MURATA, Gilson Masahiro; SATO, Fabio Takeo; MAROSTI, Aline Rosa; CARVALHO, Carla Roberta de Oliveira; CURI, Rui
    Background: Obesity is associated with the development of insulin resistance (IR) and type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, not all patients with T2DM are obese. The Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat is an experimental model of spontaneous and non-obese T2DM. There is evidence that the intestine contributes to IR development in GK animals. This information prompted us to investigate small intestine remodeling in this animal model. Methods: Four-month-old male Wistar (control) and GK rats were utilized for the present study. After removing the small intestine, the duodenum, proximal jejunum, and distal ileum were separated. We then measured villi and muscular and mucosa layer histomorphometry, goblet cells abundance, total myenteric and submucosal neuron populations, and inflammatory marker expression in the small intestinal segments and intestinal transit of both groups of animals. Key Results: We found that the GK rats exhibited decreased intestinal area (p < 0.0001), decreased crypt depth in the duodenum (p = 0.01) and ileum (p < 0.0001), increased crypt depth in the jejunum (p < 0.0001), longer villi in the jejunum and ileum (p < 0.0001), thicker villi in the duodenum (p < 0.01) and ileum (p < 0.0001), thicker muscular layers in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum (p < 0.0001), increased IL-1 beta concentrations in the duodenum and jejunum (p < 0.05), and increased concentrations of NF-kappa B p65 in the duodenum (p < 0.01), jejunum and ileum (p < 0.05). We observed high IL-1 beta reactivity in the muscle layer, myenteric neurons, and glial cells of the experimental group. GK rats also exhibited a significant reduction in submucosal neuron density in the jejunum and ileum, ganglionic hypertrophy in all intestinal segments studied (p < 0.0001), and a slower intestinal transit (about 25%) compared to controls. Conclusions: The development of IR and T2DM in GK rats is associated with small intestine remodeling that includes marked alterations in small intestine morphology, local inflammation, and reduced intestinal transit.

    Smoking accelerates renal cystic disease and worsens cardiac phenotype in Pkd1-deficient mice
    (2021) SOUSA, Marciana V.; AMARAL, Andressa G.; FREITAS, Jessica A.; MURATA, Gilson M.; WATANABE, Elieser H.; BALBO, Bruno E.; TAVARES, Marcelo D.; HORTEGAL, Renato A.; ROCON, Camila; SOUZA, Leandro E.; IRIGOYEN, Maria C.; SALEMI, Vera M.; ONUCHIC, Luiz F.
    Smoking has been associated with renal disease progression in ADPKD but the underlying deleterious mechanisms and whether it specifically worsens the cardiac phenotype remain unknown. To investigate these matters, Pkd1-deficient cystic mice and noncystic littermates were exposed to smoking from conception to 18 weeks of age and, along with nonexposed controls, were analyzed at 13-18 weeks. Renal cystic index and cyst-lining cell proliferation were higher in cystic mice exposed to smoking than nonexposed cystic animals. Smoking increased serum urea nitrogen in cystic and noncystic mice and independently enhanced tubular cell proliferation and apoptosis. Smoking also increased renal fibrosis, however this effect was much higher in cystic than in noncystic animals. Pkd1 deficiency and smoking showed independent and additive effects on reducing renal levels of glutathione. Systolic function and several cardiac structural parameters were also negatively affected by smoking and the Pkd1-deficient status, following independent and additive patterns. Smoking did not increase, however, cardiac apoptosis or fibrosis in cystic and noncystic mice. Notably, smoking promoted a much higher reduction in body weight in Pkd1-deficient than in noncystic animals. Our findings show that smoking aggravated the renal and cardiac phenotypes of Pkd1-deficient cystic mice, suggesting that similar effects may occur in human ADPKD.

    Kombucha tea improves glucose tolerance and reduces hepatic steatosis in obese mice
    (2022) MOREIRA, Gabriela V.; ARAUJO, Layanne C. C.; MURATA, Gilson M.; MATOS, Sandro L.; CARVALHO, Carla R. O.
    Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), often associated with obesity, is becoming one of the most common liver diseases worldwide. It is estimated to affect one billion individuals and may be present in approximately 25% of the population globally. NAFLD is viewed as a hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome, with humans and animal models presenting dyslipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes. The gut-liver axis has been considered the main pathogenesis branch for NAFLD development. Considering that foods or beverages could modulate the gastrointestinal tract, immune system, energy homeostasis regulation, and even the gut-liver axis, we conducted an exploratory study to analyze the effects of kombucha probiotic on hepatic steatosis, glucose tolerance, and hepatic enzymes involved in carbohydrate and fat metabolism using a pre-clinical model. The diet-induced obese mice presented glucose intolerance, hyperinsulinemia, hepatic steatosis, increased collagen fiber deposition in liver vascular spaces, and upregulated TNF-alpha and SREBP-1 gene expression. Mice receiving the kombucha supplement displayed improved glucose tolerance, reduced hyperinsulinemia, decreased citrate synthase and phosphofructokinase-1 enzyme activities, downregulated G-protein-coupled bile acid re-ceptor, also known as TGR5, and farnesol X receptor gene expression, and attenuated steatosis and hepatic collagen fiber deposition. The improvement in glucose tolerance was accompanied by the recovery of acute insulin-induced liver AKT serine phosphorylation. Thus, it is possible to conclude that this probiotic drink has a beneficial effect in reducing the metabolic alterations associated with diet-induced obesity. This probiotic beverage deserves an extension of studies to confirm or refute its potentially beneficial effects.
