Abstract Background and Aims Oxidative stress and inflammation is the major contributor of kidney injury and the drugs which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity could protect kidney against renal damage. Mechanisms involved in renal failure include oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis which lead myoglobinemia, myoglobinuria and cast formation. Inflammatory mediators such as IL-1, ICAM-1 and TNFα also play important role in renal failure. Excess production of uric acid can cause serious consequence in hyperuricemia and xanthine oxidase (XO) catalyzes the oxidation of xanthine to uric acid. Protective effects of gossypetin in the management of kidney injury and related disorders have been investigated in the present work through inhibitory potential of gossypetin on nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and XO. Method Present work described the medicinal importance of gossypetin with their beneficial effect on kidney disorder. In-silico molecular docking and dynamic experiments were carried out with gossypetin against nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). Further docking was also performed to investigate how gossypetin and the active site of XO fit together. Results From the analysis of the available data’s in the present work, it was found that gossypetin have protective effect against nephrotoxicity. Gossypetin also showed potent anti-inflammatory activity in kidney mesangial cells which further support application of natural compounds on nephritis treatment. Importance of gossypetin for preventing renal damage has been also emphasized due to its antioxidants potential. In-silico studies showed that, gossypetin exhibited a higher docking score against NF-κB and sEH. Docking studies revealed gossypetin surrounds the active sites of XO and reduces conversion of xanthine to uric acid. Conclusion Study revealed their antioxidant, anti-mutagenic, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-microbial and cytoprotective properties. The protective effect of gossypetin in kidney could be due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity through inhibition of NF-κB and sEH upregulation.

Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common malignancy of central nervous system. Herein we have evaluated the effect of L-tetrahydropalmatine, an isoquinoline alkaloid, on the tumor growth both in vivo and in vitro using C6 glioblastoma multiforme cells and BALB/c mice injected subcutaneously with C6/luc2 cells. The results of these studies show that L-tetrahydropalmatine exhibited cytotoxic effect on C6 glioblastoma multiforme cells, suppressed nuclear factor-kappa B activity, suppressed the levels of tumor-linked proteins such as matrix metalloproteinase-2/9, Cyclin-D1, vascular endothelial growth factor, and X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein via ERK/nuclear factor-kappa B cascade. Further, L-tetrahydropalmatine inhibited the cell migration and invasion properties of C6 cells, and also suppressed the tumor weight and volume in mice. Immunohistochemical staining of tumor tissues suggested that L-tetrahydropalmatine inhibited the extracellular-signal-regulated kinase/nuclear factor-kappa B cascade and suppressed the levels of Cyclin-D1; matrix metalloproteinase-2/9; X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein; and vascular endothelial growth factor, and also the progression and growth of glioblastoma multiforme in mice. In summary, L-tetrahydropalmatine inhibits the ERK/nuclear factor-kappa B cascade, decreases the tumor volume, and inhibits the proteins responsible for tumor growth both in vivo and in vitro.

Sepsis, with high mortality, induces deleterious organ dysfunction and acute lung injury. Natural compounds show protective effect against sepsis-induced acute lung injury. Juglone, a natural naphthoquinone, demonstrates pharmacological actions as a pro-apoptotic substrate in tumor treatment and anti-inflammation substrate in organ injury. In this study, the influence of juglone on sepsis-induced acute lung injury was investigated. First, a septic mice model was established via cecal ligation and puncture, and then verified via histopathological analysis of lung tissues, the wet/dry mass ratio and myeloperoxidase activity was determined. Cecal ligation and puncture could induce acute lung injury in septic mice, as demonstrated by alveolar damage and increase of wet/dry mass ratio and myeloperoxidase activity. However, intragastric administration juglone attenuated cecal ligation and puncture-induced acute lung injury. Secondly, cecal ligation and puncture-induced increase of inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was also alleviated by the administration of juglone. Similarly, the protective effect of juglone against cecal ligation and puncture-induced acute lung injury was accompanied by a reduction of pro-inflammatory factor secretion in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and lung tissues. Cecal ligation and puncture could activate toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-kappa B signaling pathway, and administration of juglone suppressed toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-kappa B activation. In conclusion, juglone attenuated cecal ligation and puncture-induced lung damage and inflammatory response through inactivation of toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-kappa B, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy in the treatment of sepsis-induced acute lung injury.
