We report in sedentary versus physically active rats 1) fewer bulbospinal non-C1 neurons positive for GluN1, 2) significantly higher expression of GluN1 and GluN2B but lower levels of phosphoGluN1 (pSer896) and PSD95, and 3) higher levels of glutamate in the RVLM. Higher GluN expression is consistent with enhanced sympathoexcitation in sedentary animals; however, a more complex neuroplasticity occurs within subregions of the ventrolateral medulla. Our results in rodents may also indicate that alterations in glutamatergic excitation of the RVLM contribute to the increased incidence of CVD in humans who lead sedentary lifestyles. Thus, there is a strong need to further pursue mechanisms of inactivity-related neuroplasticity in the RVLM.The existence of presynaptic, release-regulating NMDA receptors in the CNS has been long matter of discussion. Most of the reviews dedicated to support this conclusion have preferentially focussed on the results from electrophysiological studies, paying little or no attention to the data obtained with purified synaptosomes, even though this experimental approach has been recognized as providing reliable information concerning the presence and the role of presynaptic release-regulating receptors in the CNS. To fill the gap, this review is dedicated to summarising the results from studies with synaptosomes published during the last 40 years, which support the existence of auto and hetero NMDA receptors controlling the release of transmitters such as glutamate, GABA, dopamine, noradrenaline, 5-HT, acetylcholine and peptides, in the CNS of mammals. The review also deals with the results from immunochemical studies in isolated nerve endings that confirm the functional observations. Cannabidiol (CBD) has been shown to differentially regulate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) in preclinical models of disease, where it reduces activity in models of epilepsies and cancer and increases it in models of multiple sclerosis (MS) and psychosis. Here, we investigate the effects of phytocannabinoids on mTORC1 and define a molecular mechanism. A novel mechanism for phytocannabinoids was identified using the tractable model system, Dictyostelium discoideum. Using mouse embryonic fibroblasts, we further validate this new mechanism of action. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/wnt-c59-c59.html We demonstrate clinical relevance using cells derived from healthy individuals and from people with MS (pwMS). Both CBD and the more abundant cannabigerol (CBG) enhance mTORC1 activity in D. discoideum. We identify a mechanism for this effect involving inositol polyphosphate multikinase (IPMK), where elevated IPMK expression reverses the response to phytocannabinoids, decreasing mTORC1 activity upon treatment, providing new insight on phytocannabinoids' actions. We further validated this mechanism using mouse embryonic fibroblasts. Clinical relevance of this effect was shown in primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, where CBD and CBG treatment increased mTORC1 activity in cells derived from healthy individuals and decreased mTORC1 activity in cells derived from pwMS. Our findings suggest that both CBD and the abundant CBG differentially regulate mTORC1 signalling through a mechanism dependent on the activity of the upstream IPMK signalling pathway, with potential relevance to the treatment of mTOR-related disorders, including MS.

Cancer cells exhibit more dependence on iron and enhanced sensitivity to iron-dependent, programmed cell death (ferroptosis) than normal cells. Quercetin exerts anti-cancer effects, but the underlying molecular mechanism is largely unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the involvement of lysosome function and ferroptosis in the anti-cancer potential of quercetin. We used MTT assays and DNA content analysis to evaluate the cytotoxicity, colony formation assay to investigate cell proliferation, and flow cytometry and confocal microscopy to detect lysosomal acidification and protease enzyme activity. Western blotting, cell subfractionation, RT-PCR and siRNA transfection were used to establish molecular mechanisms of action. Quercetin is known to promote p53-independent cell death in various cancer cell lines. Although quercetin induces autophagy, genetic silencing of Atg7 fails to affect quercetin-induced cell death. In contrast, both lysosome inhibitors and knockdown of the transcription factor EB can prevent quercetin-induced cell death, suggesting the involvement of lysosome. Next, quercetin is found to induce lysosomal activation sequentially through nuclear translocation of EB and transcriptional activation of lysosomal genes. Notably, quercetin promoted lysosome-dependent ferritin degradation and free iron release. This action and quercetin-induced ROS generation synergistically resulted in lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis. Furthermore, Bid may link ferroptosis with apoptosis to cause cell death. Quercetin induced EB-mediated lysosome activation and increased ferritin degradation leading to ferroptosis and Bid-involved apoptosis. Results from this study may expand our current knowledge about the mechanism of quercetin as an anti-cancer agent.

In microbes, an important mechanism of HGT is prophage acquisition (phage genomes integrated into bacterial chromosomes). Prophages can influence bacterial fitness via the transfer of beneficial genes (including antibiotic-resistance genes, ARGs), protection from superinfecting phages, or switching to a lytic lifecycle that releases free phages infectious to competitors. We expect these effects to depend on environmental conditions because of, for example, environment-dependent induction of the lytic lifecycle. However, it remains unclear how costs/benefits of prophages vary across environments. Here, studying prophages with/without ARGs in Escherichia coli, we disentangled the effects of prophages alone and adaptive genes they carry. In competition with prophage-free strains, benefits from prophages and ARGs peaked in different environments. Prophages were most beneficial when induction of the lytic lifecycle was common, whereas ARGs were more beneficial upon antibiotic exposure and with reduced prophage induction.
