Item type:Publication, Pre-Conditioning with CDP-Choline Attenuates Oxidative Stress-Induced Cardiac Myocyte Death in a Hypoxia/Reperfusion Model(2014) ;González-Pacheco, Héctor ;Méndez-Domínguez, Aurelio; ;López-Marure, RebecaVazquez-Mellado, Maria J.Background: CDP-choline is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine, which is an essential component of cellular membranes, and a cell signalling mediator. CDP-choline has been used for the treatment of cerebral ischaemia, showing beneficial effects. However, its potential benefit for the treatment of myocardial ischaemia has not been explored yet. Aim: In the present work, we aimed to evaluate the potential use of CDP-choline as a cardioprotector in an in vitro model of ischaemia/reperfusion injury. Methods: Neonatal rat cardiac myocytes were isolated and subjected to hypoxia/reperfusion using the coverslip hypoxia model. To evaluate the effect of CDP-choline on oxidative stress-induced reperfusion injury, the cells were incubated with H₂O₂ during reperfusion. The effect of CDP-choline pre- and postconditioning was evaluated using the cell viability MTT assay, and the proportion of apoptotic and necrotic cells was analyzed using the Annexin V determination by flow cytometry.2 9Scopus© Citations 11 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Increased CD47 and MHC Class I Inhibitory Signals Expression in Senescent CD1 Primary Mouse Lung Fibroblasts(2021) ;Hernández-Mercado, Elisa ;Prieto-Chávez, Jessica Lakshmi ;Arriaga-Pizano, Lourdes Andrea; Mendlovic, FelaCellular senescence is more than a proliferative arrest in response to various stimuli. Senescent cells (SC) participate in several physiological processes, and their adequate removal is essential to maintain tissue and organism homeostasis. However, SC accumulation in aging and age-related diseases alters the tissue microenvironment leading to deterioration. The immune system clears the SC, but the specific scenarios and mechanisms related to recognizing and eliminating them are unknown. Hence, we aimed to evaluate the existence of three regulatory signals of phagocytic function, CD47, major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I), and calreticulin, present in the membrane of SC. Therefore, primary fibroblasts were isolated from CD1 female mice lungs, and stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS) was induced with hydrogen peroxide. Replicative senescence (RS) was used as a second senescent model. Our results revealed a considerable increment of CD47 and MHC-I in RS and SIPS fibroblasts. At the same time, no significant changes were found in calreticulin, suggesting that those signals might be associated with evading immune system recognition and thus averting senescent cells clearance.2Scopus© Citations 13 12 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, On the existence of cardiomesenchymal stem cells(2015) ;Navarro Betancourt, RefugioThe most efficient cells for cardiac regeneration are myocardium-resident cardiac stem cells. However, the limited availability of these cells restricts their utility for cardiac cellular therapy. Mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into a wide variety of tissues, but it is not simple to accurately direct cell differentiation into a specific lineage, such as cardiac tissue; this renders a low efficiency for cardiac regeneration therapy. Given the heterogeneity of mesenchymal stem cells, it may be possible to find specific stem cell subpopulations with a definite differentiation capacity toward cardiac lineage. A parameter to assess cardiac differentiation specificity could be surface marker expression; a population with an immunophenotype similar to cardiac stem cells may have a superior therapeutic value than unsorted mesenchymal stem cells. We hypothesize the existence of a cell line that combines the expression of cardiac stem cell surface markers with those of mesenchymal stem cells, a suitable name for this population is cardiomesenchymal stem cells (CMSC); such cells would be ideal for cardiac regeneration.2 9Scopus© Citations 5 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Data on sodium tetraborate as a modulation of hypertrophic intracellular signals(2021) ;Roque-Jorge, J.; ;Díaz-Rosas, Guadalupe ;García-Chéquer, Adda JeanetteLopez-Torres, AdolfoThe present work benefits the use of sodium tetraborate to prevent and treat hypertrophic cardiac. The data obtained from the work could serve as a reference point to compare with data obtained in vivo studies with cardiac damage. This research will be an advantage for future researches to stimulate the ones focused on developing food supplements to prevent heart diseases such as cardiac hypertrophic. This article also indicates the data on the optimal concentration of isoproterenol as an inducer of hypertrophy in cardiomyocytes. Also, data of the cytotoxic effect of sodium tetraborate on normal cardiomyocytes is revealed. Finally, data of viability, cell size, proliferation nuclear antigen (PCNA) and apoptosis is shown. The expression of transcription factors linked to hypertrophy such as GATA-4, MEF2c, NFAT, CDk9, and myogenin was also quantified by immunofluorescence. The mRNA expression of adrenergic receptors (alpha and beta), AKT1 and Erk1 / 2 and genes of early response to hypertrophy (c-myc, c-fos, c-jun) are also shown as Cts of RT-qPCR. GAPDH and 18 s were used as housekeeping genes.2 14 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Role of sodium tetraborate as a cardioprotective or competitive agent: Modulation of hypertrophic intracellular signals(2020); ;Roque-Jorge, J. ;López López, Antonio ;Díaz-Rosas, GabrielaGarcía-Chequer, A.J.Boron is an essential trace element in cellular metabolism; however, the molecular mechanism of boron in the heart is unclear. In this study, we examined the effect of sodium tetraborate (as boron source) as a possible protective agent or competitive inhibitor of cardiac hypertrophy in an in vitro murine model. We evaluated different previously reported sodium tetraborate concentrations and it was found that 13 μM improves viability without affecting the cellular structure. We demonstrated that cardiomyocytes pretreated with sodium tetraborate prevents cellular damage induced by isoproterenol (cardioprotective effect) by increasing proliferation rate and inhibiting apoptosis. In addition, the reduction of the expression of the α1AR and β1AR adrenergic receptors as well as Erk1/2 was notable. Consequently, the expression of the early response genes c-myc, c-fos and c-jun was delayed. Also, the expression of GATA-4, NFAT, NKx2.5 and myogenin transcription factors involved in sarcomere synthesis declined. In contrast, cardiomyocytes, when treated simultaneously with sodium tetraborate and isoproterenol, did not increase their size (cytoplasmic gain), but an increase in apoptosis levels was observed; therefore, the proliferation rate was reduced. Although the mRNA levels of α1AR and β1AR as well as Erk1/2 and Akt1 were low at 24 h, their expression increased to 48 h. Notably, the mRNA of expression levels of c-myc, c-fos and c-jun were lower than those determined in the control, while the transcription factors GATA-4, MEF2c, Nkx2.5, NFAT and CDk9 were determined in most cells. These results suggest that pretreatment with sodium tetraborate in cardiomyocytes inhibits the hypertrophic effect. However, sodium tetraborate attenuates isoproterenol induced hypertrophy damage in cardiomyocytes when these two compounds are added simultaneously.Scopus© Citations 3 2 4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Standardized phytopreparations and cucurbitacin IIb from Ibervillea sonorae (S. Watson) greene induce apoptosis in cervical cancer cells by Nrf2 inhibition(2022) ;Vidal-Gutiérrez, Max ;Torres-Moreno, Heriberto; ;Loredo Mendoza, María LiliaVelazquez, CarlosEthnopharmacology relevance: Ibervillea sonorae (S. Watson) Greene is a plant from northwestern Mexico, known as “Wereke” or “Guareque”, used by the Mayo ethnic group to treat diabetes and cancer. Cucurbitacin IIb (CIIb), isolated from I. sonorae has apoptotic and antitumor activity in a model of cervical cancer with the HeLa cell line. One pathway affected by cucurbitacins is Nrf2, a glutathione transferase (GST) transcription factor, important in the regulation of mitochondrial oxidative stress (MOS). A signal of MOS is the change in the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), which has been detected in HeLa in the presence of CIIb. Fito-Ison-EtOH (Etanison) and Fito-Ison-EtOAc (Acetison) are phytopreparations from I. sonorae standardized according to their CIIb content (6.7 mg/g and 18.4 mg/g of CIIb, respectively). Etanison and Acetison have been reported to induce morphological changes in HeLa like those induced by CIIb. Aim of the study: To evaluate the apoptotic and Nrf2 inhibition activity of the phytopreparations Acetison and Etanison from Ibervillea Sonorae in the HeLa cervical cancer cell line. Materials and methods : Antiproliferative activity was evaluated by the MTT method at 24, 48, and 72 h. For Acetison and Etanison, serial concentrations from 6.25 μg/mL to 100 μg/mL were tested, and for CIIb from 1.56 μg/mL to 50 μg/mL. The expression of Nrf2, caspase 3, and caspase 9 was evaluated by western blot, using concentrations of 30 μg/mL for Acetison, 50 μg/mL for Etanison, and 15 μg/mL for CIIb. Cisplatin was used as a positive control.1Scopus© Citations 8 18 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Evaluating the biological risk of functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes and functionalized oxygen-doped multiwalled carbon nanotubes as possible toxic, carcinogenic, and embryotoxic agents(2017) ;Lara-Martínez, Luis Andres ;Massó, Felipe A. ;Palacios, Eduardo ;García-Pelaéz, IsabelContreras-Ramos, AlejandraCarbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been a focus of attention due to their possible applications in medicine, by serving as scaffolds for cell growth and proliferation and improving mesenchymal cell transplantation and engraftment. The emphasis on the benefits of CNTs has been offset by the ample debate on the safety of nanotechnologies. In this study, we determine whether functionalized multiwalled CNTs (fMWCNTs) and functionalized oxygen-doped multiwalled CNTs (fCOxs) have toxic effects on rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in vitro by analyzing morphology and cell proliferation and, using in vivo models, whether they are able to transform MSCs in cancer cells or induce embryotoxicity. Our results demonstrate that there are statistically significant differences in cell proliferation and the cell cycle of MSCs in culture. We identified dramatic changes in cells that were treated with fMWCNTs. Our evaluation of the transformation to cancer cells and cytotoxicity process showed little effect. However, we found a severe embryotoxicity in chicken embryos that were treated with fMWCNTs, while fCOxs seem to exert cardioembryotoxicity and a discrete teratogenicity. Furthermore, it seems that the time of contact plays an important role during cell transformation and embryotoxicity. A single contact with fMWCNTs is not sufficient to transform cells in a short time; an exposure of fMWCNTs for 2 weeks led to cell transformation risk and cardioembryotoxicity effects.Scopus© Citations 9 1 2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Participation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Tumor Process(Springer Nature Singapore, 2024); ;Cisneros, BulmaroAlthough most mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) studies have focused on evaluating the safety and efficacy of their use as therapeutic agents in regenerative medicine, some recently published studies have highlighted the immunomodulatory role of MSCs in several pathologies, such as cancer. Multiple authors support the idea that MSCs play an essential role in tumor pathogenesis because MSCs can promote and facilitate tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Additionally, MSCs may induce modulation of the immune response in favor of tumor growth by producing molecules such as cytokines, growth factors, and immunosuppressive molecules. Despite multiple underlying mechanisms by which MSCs promote tumor development and progression have been described, few reports have defined the mechanisms through which MSCs support immunosuppression. This chapter will present an overview analyzing the immunomodulatory properties of normal and tumor MSCs and their differences because the study of mechanisms that T-MSCs use to regulate the immune response could allow the design and development of novel strategies against cancer. ©The authors ©Springer.23 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, In Vitro Evidence of Differential Immunoregulatory Response between MDA-MB-231 and BT-474 Breast Cancer Cells Induced by Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Conditioned Medium(2022); ;Montesinos, Juan José ;Cortés-Morales, Víctor A. ;Cisneros, BulmaroNavarro Betancourt, RefugioInside tumors, cancer cells display several mechanisms to create an immunosuppressive environment. On the other hand, by migration processes, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) can be recruited by different cancer tumor types from tissues as distant as bone marrow and contribute to tumor pathogenesis. However, the impact of the immunoregulatory role of MSCs associated with the aggressiveness of breast cancer cells by soluble molecules has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, this in vitro work aimed to study the effect of the conditioned medium of human bone marrow-derived-MSCs (hBM-MSC-cm) on the immunoregulatory capability of MDA-MB-231 and BT-474 breast cancer cells. The hBM-MSC-cm on MDA-MB-231 cells induced the overexpression of TGF-β, IDO, and IL-10 genes. Additionally, immunoregulation assays of mononuclear cells (MNCs) in co-culture with MDA-MB-231 and hBM-MSC-cm decreased lymphocyte proliferation, and increased proteins IL-10, TGF-β, and IDO while also reducing TNF levels, shooting the proportion of regulatory T cells. Conversely, the hBM-MSC-cm did not affect the immunomodulatory capacity of BT-474 cells. Thus, a differential immunoregulatory effect was observed between both representative breast cancer cell lines from different origins. Thus, understanding the immune response in a broader tumor context could help to design therapeutic strategies based on the aggressive behavior of tumor cells.1 15Scopus© Citations 4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, NF-κB signaling blockade by Bay 11-7085 during early cardiac morphogenesis induces alterations of the outflow tract in chicken heart(2006); ;García-Peláez, I. ;Zentella-Dehesa, Alejandro ;Rojas, EmilioHernández-Franco, PabloNuclear factor κB (NF-κB) is a pleiotropic transcription factor implicated in the regulation of diverse morphologic cardiac alterations, for which the p50 and p65 subunits form the most prevalent dimeric form in the heart. NF-κB is inactivated by proteins of the IκB family, which trap it in the cytoplasm. It is not known whether NF-κB influences cardiac development. Objective: Here we investigated the role of NF-κB in regulating transcription in chicken heart morphogenesis. Specifically, we tested whether NF-κB activation is required for normal formation of the outflow tract (OFT) during a critical stage of heart development. Methods and results: We designed a reporter vector with κB binding sites for Rel family members in the promoter, upstream from the cDNA of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP). This construct was injected directly into the developing heart of chicken embryos. NF-κB activation was subsequently inhibited by administration of the specific pharmacological agent Bay 11-7085. We found that forced NF-κB expression was associated with multiple congenital cardiac alterations of the OFT (mainly IVC, DORV and great arteries stenosis). Conclusion: These findings indicate that blockade of NF-κB induces apoptosis and is an important factor in the development of OFT during cardiogenesis. However, it remains unknown which members of the Rel family are relevant in this process. ©Apoptosis2 2Scopus© Citations 26
