Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) result from a non-enzymatic reaction of proteins with reactive carbohydrates. Heat-processed food, such as bread, contains high amounts of AGEs. The activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway by bread crust extract (BCE) is well understood. However, it is largely unknown whether NRF2, the master regulator of oxidative stress resistance in mammalian cells, is affected by BCE. We have investigated the molecular mechanisms by which BCE induces antioxidant gene expression in cellular models. Our data showed that soluble extracts from bread crust are capable of stimulating the NRF2 signaling pathway. Furthermore, NRF2 pathway activation was confirmed by microarray and reporter-cell analyses. QRT-PCR measurements and Western blot analyses indicated an induction of antioxidative genes such as HMOX1, GCLM and NQO1 upon BCE treatment. Moreover, BCE pretreated cells had a survival advantage compared to control cells when exposed to oxidative stress. BCE induces phosphorylation of AKT and ERK kinase in EA.hy926 cells. By mass spectrometry, several new, potentially active modifications in BCE were identified. Our findings indicate that BCE activates NRF2-dependent antioxidant gene expression, thus provoking a protection mechanism against oxidative stress-mediated tissue injury. Hence, BCE can be considered as functional food with antioxidative and cardioprotective potential.

Oxidative stress is implicated in a wide range of intestinal disorders and closely associated with their pathological processes. Resveratrol (RSV), a plant extract, plays a vital role in protecting various organs in vitro and in vivo. However, the benefits of RSV are controversial, and underlying mechanisms for its antioxidant effects on intestinal epithelial cells remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the effects of RSV on oxidative stress induced by H2O2 in IPEC-J2 cells. We found that pretreatment with RSV significantly increased cell viability; increased expression levels of tight junction (TJ) proteins (claudin-1, occludin, and ZO-1); improved activities of superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD-1), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px); and decreased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and apoptosis induced by H2O2 (P<0.05). In addition, RSV upregulated Akt phosphorylation, Nrf2 phosphorylation, and expression levels of antioxidant genes HO-1, SOD-1, and CAT in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05) under oxidative stress. Knockdown of Nrf2 by short-hairpin RNA (shRNA) abrogated RSV-mediated protection against H2O2-induced apoptosis, RSV-induced increase of TJ protein levels, and antioxidant gene expression (SOD-1, CAT, and GSH-Px) (P<0.05). Consistent with Nrf2 knockdown, the PI3K/Akt inhibitor LY294002 significantly suppressed RSV-induced Nrf2 phosphorylation and RSV-induced increase of TJ protein levels and antioxidant gene expression under H2O2 treatment (P<0.05). Collectively, these results demonstrate that RSV can directly protect IPEC-J2 cells against oxidative stress through the PI3K/Akt-mediated Nrf2 signaling pathway, suggesting that RSV may be an effective feed additive against intestinal damage in livestock production.

Nrf2 Signaling Pathway

We investigated the potential ability of quercetin to protect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced intestinal oxidative stress in broiler chickens and the potential role of the Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) signaling pathway. One-day-old broiler chickens (n = 240) were randomized into four groups: saline-challenged broiler chickens fed a basal diet (Con), LPS-challenged broiler chickens on a basal diet (LPS), and LPS-treated broiler chickens on a basal diet containing either 200 or 500 mg/kg of quercetin (Que200+LPS or Que500+LPS). Quercetin (200 mg/kg) significantly alleviated LPS-induced decreased duodenal, jejunal, and illeal villus height and increased the crypt depth in these regions. Quercetin significantly inhibited LPS-induced jejunal oxidative stress, including downregulated reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels, and it upregulated superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) levels. Quercetin relieved LPS-induced jejunal mitochondria damage and upregulated mitochondrial DNA copy number-related gene expression, including cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COX1), ATP synthase F0 subunit 6 (ATP6), and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (ND1). Quercetin attenuated the LPS-induced inhibition of Nrf2 activation, translocation, and downstream gene expression, including heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), NAD (P) H dehydrogenase quinone 1 (NQO1), and manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2). Additionally, quercetin attenuated the LPS-inhibition of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), Extracellular Regulated protein Kinases (ERK), and p38MAPK (p38) phosphorylation in the MAPK pathway. Thus, quercetin attenuated LPS-induced oxidative stress in the intestines of broiler chickens via the MAPK/Nrf2 signaling pathway.

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a mycotoxin that frequently contaminates cereals and cereal byproducts. This study investigates the effect of AFB1 on the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) of piglets and evaluates if a diet containing grape seed meal (GSM) can counteract the negative effect of AFB1 on inflammation and oxidative stress. Twenty-four weaned piglets were fed the following diets: Control, AFB1 group (320 μg AFB1/kg feed), GSM group (8% GSM), and AFB1 + GSM group (8% GSM + 320 μg AFB1/kg feed) for 30 days. AFB1 has an important antioxidative effect by decreasing the activity of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and total antioxidant status. As a result of the exposure to AFB1, an increase of MAP kinases, metalloproteinases, and cytokines, as effectors of an inflammatory response, were observed in the MLNs of intoxicated piglets. GSM induced a reduction of AFB1-induced oxidative stress by increasing the activity of GPx and SOD and by decreasing lipid peroxidation. GSM decreased the inflammatory markers increased by AFB1. These results represent an important and promising way to valorize this waste, which is rich in bioactive compounds, for decreasing AFB1 toxic effects in mesenteric lymph nodes.
