AB  - Oxidative stress has been implicated in numerous pregnancy-related disorders. Biologically active plant secondary metabolites, which are present in everyday diet, could prove effective therapeutic agents in preventing
these disorders. This study evaluated effects of taxifolin (dihydroquercetin) on ROS production, markers of
oxidative damage to lipids and proteins, activity of antioxidant enzymes and production of pro-inflammatory
cytokines in H2O2-induced oxidative stress in trophoblast HTR-8/SVneo cells. Taxifolin in 10 µM and 100 µM
concentrations attenuated oxidative damage to lipids and proteins, as evidenced by a decrease in MDA content,
extracellular LDH activity, carbonyl groups and nitrite contents. A reduction in the activity of antioxidant enzymes SOD, CAT and GPx in cells pre-treated with taxifolin, prior to H2O2 exposure, was also observed, along
with a reduction in intracellular ROS production. Both evaluated concentrations of taxifolin showed antiinflammatory activity in trophoblast cells, by reducing production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL6. In this model of H2O2-induced oxidative stress, taxifolin showed marked antioxidative and antiinflammatory activities in trophoblast cells, adding further evidence of its protective effects and showing potential as a therapeutic agent in preventing adverse pregnancy outcomes.

AB  - Olive-derived bioactive compound oleuropein was evaluated against damage induced by hydrogen peroxide in human trophoblast cells in vitro, by examining the changes in several markers implicated in oxidative stress interactions in the placenta. Trophoblast HTR-8/SVneo cells were preincubated with OLE at 10 and 100 µM and exposed to H2O2, as a model of oxidative stress. Protein and lipid peroxidation, as well as antioxidant enzymes’ activity, were determined spectrophotometrically, and DNA damage was evaluated by comet assay. iNOS protein expression was assessed by Western blot, while the mRNA expression of pro- and anti-apoptotic genes BAX and BCL2 and transcription factor NFE2L2, as well as cytokines IL-6 and TNF α were determined by qPCR. Oleuropein demonstrated cytoprotective effects against H2O2 in trophoblast cells by significantly improving the antioxidant status and preventing protein and lipid damage, as well as reducing the iNOS levels. OLE reduced the mRNA expression of IL-6 and TNF α, however, it did not influence the expression of NFE2L2 or the BAX/BCL2 ratio after H2O2 exposure. Oleuropein per se did not lead to any adverse effects in HTR-8/SVneo cells under the described conditions, confirming its safety in vitro. In conclusion, it significantly attenuated oxidative damage and restored antioxidant functioning, confirming its protective role in trophoblast. © 2023 by the authors.

AB  - Caffeic acid is highlighted as one of the major phenolic compounds present in foods with known antioxidant activity. This phenolic is among commonly consumed substances in everyday diet of pregnant women. However, there is not enough information on its effects during pregnancy, especially the most vulnerable early stage. Extravillous trophoblast cells are specific cells of the placenta that come in direct contact with maternal uterine tissue. Through this study we investigated the cytoprotective effects of caffeic acid on H2O2-induced oxidative damage in first trimester extravillous trophoblast cell line HTR-8/SVneo. Investigated concentrations (1–100 μM) of caffeic acid showed neither cytotoxic nor genotoxic effects on HTR-8/SVneo cells. The treatment with caffeic acid 100 μM significantly increased the percentage of cells in G2/M phase of the cell cycle, compared to non-treated cells. Pretreatment with caffeic acid (10 and 100 μM) attenuated oxidative DNA damage significantly, reduced cytotoxicity, protein and lipid peroxidation, and restored antioxidant capacity in trophoblast cells following H2O2 exposure. This beneficial outcome is probably mediated by the augmentation of GSH and effective ROS scavenging by caffeic acid. These promising results require further investigations to reveal the additional mechanisms/pathways and confirmation through studies in vivo.

AB  - Phenolic groups of steroidal or nonsteroidal estrogens can redox cycle, leading to oxidative stress, where creation of reactive oxygen species are recognized as the main mechanism of their DNA damage properties. Dry olive (Olea europaea L.) leaf extract is known to contain bioactive and antioxidative components and to have an ability to modulate the effects of various oxidants in cells. The main goal of this study was to investigate antigenotoxic potential of a standardized dry olive leaf extract on DNA damage induced by 17 beta-estradiol and diethylstilbestrol in human whole blood cells in vitro, using comet assay. Our results indicated that both hormones showed a genotoxic effect at a concentration of 100 mu M (P < 0.05, n = 6). Dry olive leaf extract was efficient in reducing number of cells with estrogen-induced DNA damage at tested concentrations (0.125, 0.5 and 1 mg/mL) (P < 0.05, n = 6) and under two experimental protocols, pre-treatment and post-treatment, exhibiting antigenotoxic properties. Analysis of antioxidant properties of the extract revealed moderate ABTS radical scavenging properties and reducing power. Overall, our results suggested that the protective potential of dry olive leaf extract could arise from the synergistic effect of its scavenging activity and enhancement of the cells antioxidant capacity.

AB  - The ability of Agaricus blazei mushroom in its dried and powdered mycelial form was evaluated for its antigenotoxic properties for the first time. Antigenotoxic effects in human peripheral blood cells against H2O2-induced DNA damage were examined in pretreatment and posttreatment protocol by comet assay. The results showed better antigenotoxic properties of Agaricus blazei on the interventional level, respectively, after treatment. Agaricus blazei in concentration of 250 mu g/mL after treatment was most efficient in regard to its action against DNA damage. The evaluation of repair kinetics showed decrease in H2O2 induced DNA damage 15min after the application of A. blazei, reaching the maximum potency after 30 min. Analysis of antioxidant properties of Agaricus blazei revealed strong center dot OH scavenging properties and moderate reducing power, while its DPPH scavenging ability was weak. In regard to our findings, we can conclude that our preliminary results demonstrated antigenotoxic properties of Agaricus blazei and its strong center dot OH scavenging ability. Mechanisms underlying its properties should be further evaluated in in vivo studies.

AB  - Context • Cordyceps sinensis (C sinensis) is a well-known, traditional, Chinese medicinal mushroom, valued for its beneficial properties for human health. C sinensis has been reported to have immunomodulatory, anticancer, antiaging, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Despite potential medicinal benefits, no previously published reports are available about the genotoxicity or antigenotoxicity of C sinensis, as detected by comet assay. Objective • The objective of the study was to evaluate both the genotoxic and antigenotoxic potential of an extract of C sinensis (CS extract) in human peripheral blood cells. Design • The research team designed a pilot study. Setting •The study was conducted at the Center for Biological Research, University of Belgrade, in Belgrade, Serbia. Participants • Participants were 6 healthy individuals (2 males and 4 females), between the ages of 20 and 45 y, recruited on a voluntary basis, who provided heparinized, peripheral blood samples. Intervention • Four concentrations of the CS extract— 125 μg/mL, 250 μg/mL, 500 μg/mL, and 1000 μg/mL—were used in the treatment of tested blood cells from the blood samples. Three independent procedures were performed: (1) a genotoxicity assessment, (2) an antigenotoxicity assessment for pretreatment of human cells with the CS extract prior to their exposure to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (ie, an evaluation of the benefits of the CS extract as a preventive agent); and (3) posttreatment of human cells with the CS extract after their exposure to H2O2 (ie, an evaluation of the benefits of the CS extract as an interventional agent). Outcome Measures • Cells were graded by eye inspection into 5 classes, depending on the extent of DNA damage, representing: (1) class A—undamaged cells with no tail (&lt;5% damaged DNA); (2) class B—low-level damage (5%-20%); (3) class C—medium-level damage (20%-40%); (4) class D—high-level damage (40%-95%), and (5) class E—total destruction (&gt;95%). Results • The CS extract proved to be nongenotoxic because no induced DNA damage was detected at all tested concentrations. For the antigenotoxicity assessment of the pretreatment with the CS extract, only the 1000-μg/mL concentration showed a significant decrease in the number of cells exhibiting H2O2-induced DNA damage. For the posttreatment, the CS extract exhibited antigenotoxic potential by attenuating H2O2-induced DNA damage at all concentrations tested. The evaluation of repair kinetics showed a decrease in DNA-damaged cells 15 min after the application of the CS extract, reaching a maximum potency after 45 min. Conclusions • The results indicated that C sinensis can be used as a postapplicative agent that counteracts the effect of oxidative stress. The resulting reduction in DNA damage might be related to its scavenging properties and stimulation of DNA repair.

AB  - The effects of co-administration of dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) with standard methotrexate (MTX) therapy on the parameters of cell damage and inflammation in patients with early and long-term rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were evaluated at baseline, 3 and 6weeks. Patients were assigned to groups: the early phase RA group on MTX monotherapy (E MTX), and the two RA groups that received co-treatment with DOLE and MTX: early (E MTX+DOLE) and long-term phase patients (L-t MTX+ DOLE). Baseline values indicated increased parameters of cell damage and disruption of redox balance in all groups. After three weeks the E MTX+DOLE group maintained high catalase activity, exhibited decrease of lipid peroxidation and protein damage indicatorsthiols and nitrites, while levels of DNA damage and pro-inflammatory interleukin-6 were significantly reduced. In E MTX group catalase activity remained unaltered while significant lipid peroxidation and DNA damage reductions were seen only after six weeks. L-t MTX+DOLE group showed only modest alterations of cell damage parameters during six weeks. Combined administration of DOLE with MTX contributes to faster reduction of cell damage, restores oxidative balance and improves interleukin-6 suppression during high disease activity in early phase RA, but not in long term patients.

AB  - The thyroid hormones change the rate of basal metabolism, modulating the consumption of oxygen and causing production of reactive oxygen species, which leads to the development of oxidative stress and DNA strand breaks. Olive (Olea europaea L.) leaf contains many potentially bioactive compounds, making it one of the most potent natural antioxidants. The objective of this study was to evaluate the genotoxicity of L-thyroxine and to investigate antioxidative and antigenotoxic potential of the standardized oleuropein-rich dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) against hydrogen peroxide and L-thyroxine-induced DNA damage in human peripheral blood leukocytes by using the comet assay. Various concentrations of the extract were tested with both DNA damage inducers, under two different experimental conditions, pretreatment and posttreatment. Results indicate that L-thyroxine exhibited genotoxic effect and that DOLE displayed protective effect against thyroxine-induced genotoxicity. The number of cells with DNA damage, was significantly reduced, in both pretreated and posttreated samples (P < 0.05). Comparing the beneficial effect of all tested concentrations of DOLE, in both experimental protocols, it appears that extract was more effective in reducing DNA damage in the pretreatment, exhibiting protective role against L-thyroxine effect. This feature of DOLE can be explained by its capacity to act as potent free radical scavenger.

AB  - Hormones are cellular products involved in the regulation of a large number of processes in living systems, and which by their actions affect the growth, function and metabo­lism of cells. Considering that hormones are compounds normally present in the organism, it is important to determine if they can, under certain circumstances, lead to genetic changes in the hereditary material. Numerous experimental studies in vitro and in vivo in different systems, from bacteria to mammals, dealt with the mutagenic and genotoxic effects of hormones. This work presents an overview of the research on genotoxic effects of non­steroidal hormones, although possible changes of genetic material under their influence have not still been known enough, and moreover, investigations on their genotoxic influ­ence have given conflicting results. The study results show that mechanisms of genotoxic effect of nonsteroidal hormones are manifested through the increase of oxidative stress by arising reactive oxygen species. A common mechanism of ROS occurence in thyroid hormones and catecholamines is through metabolic oxidation of their phenolic groups. Mani­festation of insulin genotoxic effect is based on production of ROS by activation of NADPH isophorms, while testing oxytocin showed absence of genotoxic effect. Considering that the investigations on genotoxicity of nonsteroidal hormones demonstrated both positive and negative results, the explanation of this discordance involve limitations of test systems themselves, different cell types or biological species used in the experiments, different lev­el of reactivity in vitro and in vivo, as well as possible variations in a tissue-specific expres­sion. Integrated, the provided data contribute to better understanding of genotoxic effect of nonsteroidal hormones and point out to the role and mode of action of these hormones in the process of occurring of effects caused by oxidative stress.

AB  - The aim of this study was to determine oxidative alterations leading to cellular dysfunctions in Pb-exposed subjects by evaluating damage to all major classes of biomolecules in the cell, lipid peroxidation, protein and DNA damage and determine relationships between parameters of Pb toxicity and specific biomarkers of oxidative damage.Analysis was conducted of smelter workers with high blood Pb and urine aminolevulinic acid levels and slightly elevated values of coproporphyrin and erythrocyte protoporphyrin IX. Significant decreases of thiol groups and increases in carbonyl groups as protein degradation end products, and of nitrite were detected. Elevated rates of lipid peroxidation and rises in the activities of the antioxidant enzymes Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase and catalase were also observed. Both enzymes showed positive correlations with the blood lead levels and urine coproporphyrin, while thiol groups correlated negatively with the same indices. The genotoxic potential of lead was manifested through an increased number of DNA-damaged cells. Increased activities of serum lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes indicated cellular damage in the lungs, kidneys, and liver. These lead-induced impairments should be taken into consideration in the assessment of Pb-related health hazards.

AB  - Lead induced oxidative cellular damage and long-term persistence of associated adverse effects increases risk of late-onset diseases. CaNa(2)EDTA chelation is known to remove contaminating metals and to reduce free radical production. The objective was to investigate the impact of chelation therapy on modulation of lead induced cellular damage, restoration of altered enzyme activities and lipid homeostasis in peripheral blood of workers exposed to lead, by comparing the selected biomarkers obtained prior and after five-day CaNa(2)EDTA chelation intervention. The group of smelting factory workers diagnosed with lead intoxication and current lead exposure 5.8 +/- 1.2 years were administered five-day CaNa(2)EDTA chelation. Elevated baseline activity of antioxidant enzymes Cu, Zn-SOD and CAT as well as depleted thiols and increased protein degradation products-carbonyl groups and nitrites, pointing to Pb induced oxidative damage, were restored toward normal values following the treatment. Lead showed inhibitor potency on both RBC AChE and BChE in exposed workers, and chelation re-established the activity of BChE, while RBC AChE remained unaffected. Also, genotoxic effect of lead detected in peripheral blood lymphocytes was significantly decreased after therapy, exhibiting 18.9% DNA damage reduction. Administration of chelation reversed the depressed activity of serum PON 1 and significantly decreased lipid peroxidation detected by the post-chelation reduction of MDA levels. Lactate dehydrogenase LDF1-5 isoenzymes levels showed evident but no significant trend of restoring toward normal control values following chelation. CaNa(2)EDTA chelation ameliorates the alterations linked with Pb mediated oxidative stress, indicating possible benefits in reducing health risks associated with increased oxidative damage in lead exposed populations.

AB  - Excessive release of stress hormone adrenaline is accompanied by generation of reactive oxygen species which may cause disruption of DNA integrity leading to cancer and age-related disorders. Phenolic-rich plant product dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) is known to modulate effects of various oxidants in human cells. The aim was to evaluate the effect of commercial DOLE against adrenaline induced DNA damage in human leukocytes by using comet assay. Peripheral blood leukocytes from 6 healthy subjects were treated in vitro with three final concentrations of DOLE (0.125, 0.5, and 1 mg/mL) for 30 min at 37 degrees C under two different protocols, pretreatment and post-treatment. Protective effect of DOLE was assessed from its ability to attenuate formation of DNA lesions induced by adrenaline. Compared to cells exposed only to adrenaline, DOLE displayed significant reduction (P < 0.001) of DNA damage at all three concentrations and under both experimental protocols. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant positive association between DOLE concentration and leukocytes DNA damage (P < 0.05). Antigenotoxic effect of the extract was more pronounced at smaller concentrations. Post-treatment with 0.125 mg/mL DOLE was the most effective against adrenaline genotoxicity. Results indicate genoprotective and antioxidant properties in dry olive leaf extract, strongly supporting further explorations of its underlying mechanisms of action.

AB  - Background: The antioxidant activity of estrogen has a beneficial impact in Alzheimer's disease. A variety of clinical studies have demonstrated that estrogen replacement therapy in postmenopausal women results in a lower frequency of AD, delaying the onset of the neurodegenerative cascade. On the other hand, it has been demonstrated that estrogens may exhibit genotoxic effects, especially at elevated tissue concentrations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine whether β-estradiol induces DNA damage in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of healthy young females and males, healthy elderly females and males and females and males with Alzheimer's disease. Methods: All experiments were performed using the alkaline version of the Comet assay (single cell gel electrophoresis), on six donors per each experimental group and controls. Results: In the Comet assay, a significant increase of DNA migration was observed in the lymphocytes of all treated groups (young and elderly females, young and elderly males, AD females and AD males) at all β-estradiol concentrations (50 µmol/L, 100 µmol/L and 250 µmol/L) used in this investigation. In all the experiments cell viability was over 80%.Conclusions: Lymphocytes are sensitive to the test concentrations of β-estradiol in the Comet assay regardless of gender, age and health condition of the examined subjects. Therefore, the role of β-estradiol in cellular DNA damage has been confirmed.
AB  - Uvod: Antioksidativna svojstva estrogena imaju povoljan uticaj na Alchajmerovu bolest (AB). Brojne kliničke studije su pokazale da primena hormonske supstitucione terapije estrogenom kod žena u postmenopauzi smanjuje učestalost pojave AB, odlažući početak neurodegenerativnih procesa. S druge strane, pokazano je da estrogeni mogu ispoljiti genotoksičan efekat, naročito pri povišenim koncentracijama u tkivu. Shodno tome, cilj ove studije bio je ispitivanje sposobnosti β-estradiola da izazove oštećenja u limfocitima periferne krvi zdravih mladih žena i muškaraca, zdravih starih žena i muškaraca, kao i žena i muškaraca koji boluju od Alchajmerove bolesti. Metode: Svi eksperimenti su izvedeni primenom alkalne verzije komet testa (gel-elektroforeza DNK pojedinačnih ćelija), na po šest subjekata u svakoj ispitivanoj grupi. Rezultati: Upotrebom komet testa, zabeleženo je značajno povećanje migracije DNK u limfocitima ispitanika iz svih tretiranih grupa (mladih i starih žena, mladih i starih muškaraca kao i kod žena i muškaraca sa AB), pri svim koncentracijama β-estradiola (50 µmol/L, 100 µmol/L i 250 µmol/L) koje su korišćene u ovoj studiji. U svim eksperimentima vijabilnost ćelija je bila iznad 80%. Zaključak: Limfociti periferne krvi osetljivi su na testirane koncentracije β-estradiola, bez obzira na pol, godište i zdravstveno stanje ispitanika. U skladu s navedenim nalazima, potvrđena je uloga β-estradiola u izazivanju oštećenja na ćelijskoj DNK.

A variety of clinical studies have demonstrated that estrogen replacement therapy in postmenopausal women results in a lower frequency of AD, delaying the onset of the neurodegenerative cascade. On the other hand, it has been demonstrated that estrogens may exhibit genotoxic effects, especially at elevated tissue concentrations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine whether β-estradiol induces DNA damage in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of healthy young females and males, healthy elderly females and males and females and males with Alzheimer's disease. Methods: All experiments were performed using the alkaline version of the Comet assay (single cell gel electrophoresis), on six donors per each experimental group and controls. Results: In the Comet assay, a significant increase of DNA migration was observed in the lymphocytes of all treated groups (young and elderly females, young and elderly males, AD females and AD males) at all β-estradiol concentrations (50 µmol/L, 100 µmol/L and 250 µmol/L) used in this investigation. In all the experiments cell viability was over 80%.Conclusions: Lymphocytes are sensitive to the test concentrations of β-estradiol in the Comet assay regardless of gender, age and health condition of the examined subjects. Therefore, the role of β-estradiol in cellular DNA damage has been confirmed., Uvod: Antioksidativna svojstva estrogena imaju povoljan uticaj na Alchajmerovu bolest (AB). Brojne kliničke studije su pokazale da primena hormonske supstitucione terapije estrogenom kod žena u postmenopauzi smanjuje učestalost pojave AB, odlažući početak neurodegenerativnih procesa. S druge strane, pokazano je da estrogeni mogu ispoljiti genotoksičan efekat, naročito pri povišenim koncentracijama u tkivu. Shodno tome, cilj ove studije bio je ispitivanje sposobnosti β-estradiola da izazove oštećenja u limfocitima periferne krvi zdravih mladih žena i muškaraca, zdravih starih žena i muškaraca, kao i žena i muškaraca koji boluju od Alchajmerove bolesti. Metode: Svi eksperimenti su izvedeni primenom alkalne verzije komet testa (gel-elektroforeza DNK pojedinačnih ćelija), na po šest subjekata u svakoj ispitivanoj grupi. Rezultati: Upotrebom komet testa, zabeleženo je značajno povećanje migracije DNK u limfocitima ispitanika iz svih tretiranih grupa (mladih i starih žena, mladih i starih muškaraca kao i kod žena i muškaraca sa AB), pri svim koncentracijama β-estradiola (50 µmol/L, 100 µmol/L i 250 µmol/L) koje su korišćene u ovoj studiji. U svim eksperimentima vijabilnost ćelija je bila iznad 80%. Zaključak: Limfociti periferne krvi osetljivi su na testirane koncentracije β-estradiola, bez obzira na pol, godište i zdravstveno stanje ispitanika. U skladu s navedenim nalazima, potvrđena je uloga β-estradiola u izazivanju oštećenja na ćelijskoj DNK.",
