Proliferation of neural stem cells (NSCs) is required for development and repair in the nervous system. NSC amplification in vitro is a necessary step towards using NSC transplantation therapy to treat neurodegenerative diseases. Folic acid (FA) has been shown to act through DNA methyltransferase to stimulate NSC proliferation. To elucidate the underlying mechanism, the effect of FA on the methylation profiles in neonatal rat NSCs was assessed by methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) and methylated DNA immunoprecipitation-DNA microarray (MeDIP-Chip). Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were determined by quantitative differentially methylated regions analysis, and genes carrying at least three DMRs were selected for pathway analysis. Gene network analysis revealed links with steroid biosynthesis, fatty acid elongation and the PI3K/Akt/CREB, neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, Jak-STAT and MAPK signaling pathways. Moreover, Akt3 acted as a hub in the network, in which 14 differentially methylated genes converged to the PI3K/Akt/CREB signaling pathway. These findings indicate that FA stimulates NSC proliferation by modifying DNA methylation levels in the PI3K/Akt/CREB pathway. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Regulatory effect of Epigallocatechin-3-O -gallate on circular RNA expression in mouse liver

Ren Yoshitomi, Motofumi Kumazoe, Kwan-Woo Lee, Yuki Marugame, Yoshinori Fujimura, Hirofumi Tachibana

Summary: This study investigated the connection between food components and circular RNA (circRNA), as well as the regulatory effect of (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG) on circRNA expression in the liver. The results showed that EGCG treatment altered the expression of circRNAs in mice livers, and one upregulated circRNA (mmu_circRNA_011775) affected the expression of genes related to liver fibrosis and the cardiovascular system.

Fermented rice bran supplementation attenuates colonic injury through modulating intestinal aryl hydrocarbon receptor and innate lymphoid cells in mice with dextran sodium sulfate-induced acute colitis

ViVi Tang Kang Wee, Hitoshi Shirakawa, Sung-Ling Yeh, Chiu-Li Yeh

Summary: This study investigated the effects of fermented rice bran (FRB) on modulating intestinal aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) expression, innate lymphoid cell (ILC)3 populations, the fecal microbiota distribution, and their associations with dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced acute colitis. The results showed that FRB supplementation can improve gut health, alleviate colitis symptoms, and have anti-colitis effects by enhancing ILC3 and AhR functions.

Low vitamin D during pregnancy is associated with infantile eczema by up-regulation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and affecting FOXP3 expression: A bidirectional cohort study

Ya-Jie Ding, Xue-Ning Li, Zhe Xiao, Chen-Yang Li, Li-Hong Jia

Summary: This study investigates the impact of maternal vitamin D levels during pregnancy on infantile eczema. The findings suggest that lower prenatal maternal vitamin D levels increase the risk of eczema in infants aged 0-1 year. Furthermore, the study indicates that infants with eczema have lower expression of the Foxp3 gene in cord blood and decreased placental FOXP3 protein expression. These results suggest that vitamin D may affect the development of infantile eczema through the regulation of gene and protein expression in cord blood and placenta.

Hypothalamic FTO promotes high-fat diet-induced leptin resistance in mice through increasing CX3CL1 expression

Shujing Liu, Shiyu Song, Shuan Wang, Tonghui Cai, Lian Qin, Xinzhuang Wang, Guangming Zhu, Haibo Wang, Wenqi Yang, Chunlu Fang, Yuan Wei, Fu Zhou, Yang Yu, Shaozhang Lin, Shuang Peng, Liangming Li

Summary: Long-term consumption of a high-fat diet disrupts energy balance and leads to weight gain. The fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene is involved in high-fat diet-induced obesity. The hypothalamus plays a crucial role in regulating energy balance, and high-fat diet-induced hypothalamic leptin resistance contributes to obesity. The study reveals that FTO is associated with hypothalamic leptin resistance and provides new insight into its role in obesity.

Regulation of the Notch signaling pathway by natural products for cancer therapy

Jiayi Cai, Yajie Qiao, Lingbin Chen, Youguang Lu, Dali Zheng

Summary: The Notch signaling pathway plays a regulatory role in normal biological processes such as cellular differentiation, apoptosis, and stem cell self-renewal. Dysregulation of this pathway is associated with various types of cancer. Natural products targeting the Notch pathway have shown potential as chemopreventive and anti-cancer agents, providing a feasible solution to fight against cancer by either alone or in combination with current therapeutic agents.
