Stress response is a fundamental mechanism for cell survival, providing protection under unfavorable conditions. Mitochondrial stress, in particular, can trigger mitophagy, a process that restores cellular health. Exhaustive exercise (EE) is a form of acute mitochondrial stress. The objective of this current study is to investigate the impact of EE on tau pathology in pR5 mice, as well as the potential underlying mechanisms. To evaluate this, we examined the levels of total and phosphorylated tau in the hippocampus of pR5 mice, both with and without EE treatment. Furthermore, the application of weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) was employed to identify protein modules associated with the phenotype following the proteomic experiment. The findings of our study demonstrated a significant decrease in tau phosphorylation levels upon EE treatment, in comparison to the pR5 group. Moreover, the proteomic analysis provided additional insights, revealing that the mitigation of tau pathology was primarily attributed to the modulation of various pathways, such as translation factors and oxidative phosphorylation. Additionally, the analysis of heatmaps revealed a significant impact of EE treatment on the translation process and electron transport chain in pR5 mice. Furthermore, biochemical analysis provided further confirmation that EE treatment effectively modulated the ATP level in pR5 mice. In conclusion, our study suggests that the observed decrease in tau phosphorylation resulting from EE treatment may primarily be attributed to its regulation of the translation process and enhancement of mitochondrial function.

This work was done to investigate succinylated commercial whey protein isolate (S-WPI) as an oral sustained-release delivery carrier for puerarin 5 (PR-5). The succinylation conditions were established for S-WPIs by optimization of single factor study and Box-Beehnken design. The effect of succinylation degree on S-WPIs solubility was evaluated. Physicochemical properties of S-WPIs dried by different three methods on their flow ability, particle size, morphology and in vitro release behavior were studied. After preparing PR-5 sustained release protein tablets with S-WPIs as the carrier by direct powder compression method, the drug release were studied in vitro and the oral pharmacokinetics and bioavailability was evaluated using in vivo dog model. It was observed that concentration of substrate has a significant effect on succinylation. Release behavior in vitro showed spry dried S-WPIs with 100% succinylation rate and 30% drug loading would be applied to the preparation of PR-5 sustained-release protein tablets based on the swelling mechanism (protein loss). Compared with PR-5 conventional tablet with oral administration, T _max value of PR-5 sustained-release protein tablets was approximately 1.58 fold greater than those of the conventional tablets as further evidenced by the significantly prolonged MRT and T _1/2. The findings demonstrated that spray-dried S-WPIs has potential as a promising functional excipient for the design of PR-5 oral sustained-release tablets which can fully improve sustained-release effect and oral bioavailability.

The guanidine compound ME10092 (1-(3,4-dimethoxy-2-chlorobenzylideneamino)-guanidine) is known to possess anti-radical and anti-ischemic activity but its molecular targets have not been identified. This study investigated whether ME10092 regulates the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB)-mediated signal transduction in vivo. The effect of ME10092 treatment (1-100 pmol/mouse) on nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB, activation of expression of inflammatory mediators and production of nitric oxide were measured in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced brain inflammation model in mice in vivo. The antinociceptive activity of ME10092 was tested in the formalin-induced paw licking test. ME10092 dose-dependently inhibited LPS-induced nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB, transcription of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements showed that ME10092 inhibited the LPS-induced increase in nitric oxide content in mouse brain tissue in a dose-dependent manner. In the formalin-induced paw licking test, ME10092 (at the dose of 3mg/kg, p.o. twice daily for eight days) significantly reduced nociceptive response. In conclusion, above results indicate that ME10092 inhibits NF-kappaB activation and suppresses the up-regulation of inflammatory mediators in experimental models in vivo.
