AB  - Gentianaceae have a long history of use as traditional remedies for treatment of various ailments. The medicinal properties of crude herbal drug are attributed to bitter glycosides, flavonoids, and xanthones, the main plant secondary metabolites. These plant-derived molecules, especially naturally occurring xanthones, possess a broad spectrum of bioactivity like anticarcinogenic, antimicrobial, neuroprotective, antidiabetic, cardio-protective. The most of Gentianaceae species are rare and endangered by uncontrolled overharvesting and influences of various environmental factors (habitat loss, climate change, and invasive species spreading). Decline of Gentianaceae species poses a high risk to the loss of enormous diversity of potentially bioactive compounds. In this chapter we will summarize pharmacological activities of identified secondary metabolites from endangered species belonging to four Gentianaceae genera (Gentiana, Gentianella, Centaurium, Swertia), as well as importance of biodiversity conservation in context of their biotherapeutic potential.

AB  - We investigated the role of autophagy, a controlled lysosomal degradation of cellular macromolecules and organelles, in glutamate excitotoxicity during nutrient deprivation in vitro. The incubation in low-glucose serum/amino acid-free cell culture medium synergized with glutamate in increasing AMP/ATP ratio and causing excitotoxic necrosis in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Glutamate suppressed starvation-triggered autophagy, as confirmed by diminished intracellular acidification, lower LC3 punctuation and LC3-I conversion to autophagosome-associated LC3-II, reduced expression of proautophagic beclin-1 and ATG5, increase of the selective autophagic target NBR1, and decreased number of autophagic vesicles. Similar results were observed in PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cells. Both glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity and autophagy inhibition in starved SH-SY5Y cells were reverted by NMDA antagonist memantine and mimicked by NMDA agonists D-aspartate and ibotenate. Glutamate reduced starvation-triggered phosphorylation of the energy sensor AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) without affecting the activity of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1, a major negative regulator of autophagy. This was associated with reduced mRNA levels of autophagy transcriptional activators (FOXO3, ATF4) and molecules involved in autophagy initiation (ULK1, ATG13, FIP200), autophagosome nucleation/elongation (ATG14, beclin-1, ATG5), and autophagic cargo delivery to autophagosomes (SQSTM1). Glutamate-mediated transcriptional repression of autophagy was alleviated by overexpression of constitutively active AMPK. Genetic or pharmacological AMPK activation by AMPK overexpression or metformin, as well as genetic or pharmacological autophagy induction by TFEB overexpression or lithium chloride, reduced the sensitivity of nutrient-deprived SH-SY5Y cells to glutamate excitotoxicity. These data indicate that transcriptional inhibition of AMPK-dependent cytoprotective autophagy is involved in glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity during nutrient deprivation in vitro.

AB  - We investigated the mechanism and the role of autophagy in phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced myeloid differentiation of human acute myeloid leukemia HL-60 cells. Methods: The mRNA levels of myeloid differentiation markers colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R), early growth response protein 1 (EGR1), and interleukin 8 (IL-8), were assessed by real-time RT-PCR. Cell cycle arrest and the expression of surface myeloid marker CD11b were analyzed by flow cytometry. Autophagy was monitored by acridine orange staining, RT-PCR analysis of autophagy-related (ATG) gene expression, LC3-II/p62 immunoblotting, Beclin-1/Bcl-2 interaction, nuclear translocation of transcription factor EB (TFEB). The activation of MAP kinases extracelluar signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and c-Jun-N terminal kinase (JNK) was assessed by immunoblotting. Pharmacological inhibition and RNA interference (RNAi) were used to determine the role of MAP kinases in autophagy and HL60 cell differentiation, while the role of autophagy in HL60 differentiation was analyzed using RNAi-mediated knockdown of ATG5 and p62. Results: PMA-induced differentiation of HL-60 cells into macrophage-like cells was confirmed by cell-cycle arrest accompanied by elevated expression of p21, CD11b, CSF1R, EGR1, and IL-8. The induction of autophagy was demonstrated by accumulation of LC3-II, the increase in autophagic flux, the increase in expression of ATG genes, nuclear translocation of TFEB and dissociation of Beclin1from Bcl-2.The suppression of autophagy by RNAi–mediated knockdown of ATG5 or p62 counteracted myeloid differentiation of HL60 cells. Both ERK and JNK were activated by PMA, and their pharmacological and genetic inhibition decreased PMA-induced autophagy and differentiation of HL60 cells. Conclusion: Our study revealed the involvement of JNK and ERK in autophagy-dependent myeloid differentiation of HL60 cells, indicating MAP kinase-mediated autophagy as a possible target for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia

AB  - We analyzed the impact of mitochondrial damage in anticancer action of combining lysosomal
membrane permeabilization (LMP)-inducing agent N- dodecylimidazole (NDI)[1] with
glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) and in antipsychotic action of atypical antipsychotic
olanzapine.
NDI-triggered LMP and 2DG-mediated glycolysis block synergized in inducing ATP depletion,
mitochondrial damage and reactive oxygen species production, eventually leading to necrotic
death of U251 glioma cells but not primary astrocytes. NDI/2DG-induced death of glioma
cells was partly prevented by lysosomal cathepsin inhibitor E64 and antioxidant tocopherol, suggesting
the involvement of LMP and oxidative stress in the observed cytotoxicity. Moreover, the
combined oral administration of NDI and 2DG reduced in vivo melanoma growth in C57BL/6
mice by inducing necrotic death of tumor cells.
Based on these results, we propose that NDI-triggered LMPcauses initial mitochondrial damage
that is further increased by 2DG due to the lack of glycolytic ATP required to maintain mitochondrial
health. This leads to a positive feedback cycle of mitochondrial dysfunction, ATP loss,
and reactive oxygen species production, culminating in necrotic cell death.
We also investigated the role of autophagy, a controlled cellular self-digestion process, in regulating
survival of neurons exposed to olanzapine. Olanzapine induced autophagy in human
SH-SY5Y neuronal cell line, as confirmed by the increase in autophagic flux and presence of
autophagic vesicles, fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes, and increase in the expression
of autophagy-related (ATG) genes ATG4B, ATG5, andATG7. The production of reactive oxygen
species, but not modulation of the main autophagy repressor mTOR or its upstream regulators
AMP-activated protein kinase and AKT1, was responsible for olanzapine-triggered autophagy.
Olanzapine-mediated oxidative stress also induced mitochondrial depolarization and damage,
and the autophagic clearance of dysfunctional mitochondria [2] was confirmed by electron microscopy,
colocalization of autophagosome associated MAP1LC3B (LC3B) and mitochondria,
and mitochondrial association with the autophagic cargo receptor p62. While olanzapine-triggered
mitochondrial damage was not visibly toxic to SH-SY5Ycells, their death was readily initiated
upon the inhibition of autophagy with pharmacological inhibitors, RNA interference knockdown
of BECN1 and LC3B. The treatment of mice with olanzapine increased the brain levels of
LC3B-II and mRNA encoding Atg4b,Atg5, Atg7, Atg12, Gabarap, and Becn1.
These data indicate that olanzapine-triggered autophagy protects neurons from otherwise fatal
mitochondrial damage, and that inhibition of autophagy might unmask the neurotoxic action
of the drug.

abstract = "We analyzed the impact of mitochondrial damage in anticancer action of combining lysosomal
membrane permeabilization (LMP)-inducing agent N- dodecylimidazole (NDI)[1] with
glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) and in antipsychotic action of atypical antipsychotic
olanzapine.
NDI-triggered LMP and 2DG-mediated glycolysis block synergized in inducing ATP depletion,
mitochondrial damage and reactive oxygen species production, eventually leading to necrotic
death of U251 glioma cells but not primary astrocytes. NDI/2DG-induced death of glioma
cells was partly prevented by lysosomal cathepsin inhibitor E64 and antioxidant tocopherol, suggesting
the involvement of LMP and oxidative stress in the observed cytotoxicity. Moreover, the
combined oral administration of NDI and 2DG reduced in vivo melanoma growth in C57BL/6
mice by inducing necrotic death of tumor cells.
Based on these results, we propose that NDI-triggered LMPcauses initial mitochondrial damage
that is further increased by 2DG due to the lack of glycolytic ATP required to maintain mitochondrial
health. This leads to a positive feedback cycle of mitochondrial dysfunction, ATP loss,
and reactive oxygen species production, culminating in necrotic cell death.
We also investigated the role of autophagy, a controlled cellular self-digestion process, in regulating
survival of neurons exposed to olanzapine. Olanzapine induced autophagy in human
SH-SY5Y neuronal cell line, as confirmed by the increase in autophagic flux and presence of
autophagic vesicles, fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes, and increase in the expression
of autophagy-related (ATG) genes ATG4B, ATG5, andATG7. The production of reactive oxygen
species, but not modulation of the main autophagy repressor mTOR or its upstream regulators
AMP-activated protein kinase and AKT1, was responsible for olanzapine-triggered autophagy.
Olanzapine-mediated oxidative stress also induced mitochondrial depolarization and damage,
and the autophagic clearance of dysfunctional mitochondria [2] was confirmed by electron microscopy,
colocalization of autophagosome associated MAP1LC3B (LC3B) and mitochondria,
and mitochondrial association with the autophagic cargo receptor p62. While olanzapine-triggered
mitochondrial damage was not visibly toxic to SH-SY5Ycells, their death was readily initiated
upon the inhibition of autophagy with pharmacological inhibitors, RNA interference knockdown
of BECN1 and LC3B. The treatment of mice with olanzapine increased the brain levels of
LC3B-II and mRNA encoding Atg4b,Atg5, Atg7, Atg12, Gabarap, and Becn1.
These data indicate that olanzapine-triggered autophagy protects neurons from otherwise fatal
mitochondrial damage, and that inhibition of autophagy might unmask the neurotoxic action
of the drug.

AB  - During malignant transformation cells acquire changes in metabolism, signaling pathways as well as organelle content. The preferential use of aerobic glycolysis (Warburg effect), along with the increased number and volume of lysosomes can be viewed as glioma cells’ Achilles heels. In the present study, we aimed to examine the in vitro antiglioma effects of combining lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP)-inducing agent N-dodecylimidazole (NDI) with glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG).
NDI-triggered LMP and 2DG-mediated glycolysis block synergistically induced rapid ATP depletion, mitochondrial damage, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production causing necrotic cell death of U251 glioma cells, but not primary astrocytes. Lysosomal cathepsin inhibitor E64 and antioxidant α-tocopherol partially prevented NDI/2DG-induced glioma cell death, thus implying the involvement of LMP and oxidative stress in the observed cytotoxicity. Likewise, LMP-inducing agent chloroquine
showed synergistic cytotoxic effect with 2DG. Similarly, glucose deprivation as well as other glycolytic inhibitors, iodoacetate and sodium fluoride, synergistically cooperated with NDI, further corroborating that the observed antiglioma effect of the NDI/2DG combined treatment was indeed based on LMP and glycolysis block. Based on these results, we concluded that NDI-triggered LMP caused initial mitochondrial damage, which was further increased by 2DG causing the lack of glycolytic ATP
required to maintain mitochondrial health. This created a positive feedback loop of mitochondrial dysfunction, ATP loss, and ROS production, culminating in necrosis. Therefore, the combination of glycolysis inhibitors and LMP-inducing agents seems promising antiglioma strategy.

AB  - We investigated the interplay between the intracellular energy sensor AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), prosurvival kinase Akt, oxidative stress, and autophagy in the cytotoxicity of parkinsonian neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl piridinium (MPP+) towards SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. MPP+-mediated oxidative stress, mitochondrial depolarization, and apoptotic cell death were associated with rapid (within 2 h) activation of AMPK, its target Raptor, and prosurvival kinase Akt. Antioxidants N-acetylcysteine and butylated hydroxyanisole suppressed MPP+-induced cytotoxicity, AMPK, and Akt activation. A genetic or pharmacological inhibition of AMPK increased MPP+-triggered production of reactive oxygen species and cell death, and diminished Akt phosphorylation, while AMPK activation protected SH-SY5Y cells from MPP+. On the other hand, genetic or pharmacological inactivation of Akt stimulated MPP+-triggered oxidative stress and neurotoxicity, but did not affect AMPK activation. At later time-points (16-24 h), MPP+ inhibited the main autophagy repressor mammalian target of rapamycin, which coincided with the increase in the levels of autophagy marker microtubule-associated protein 1 light-chain 3B. MPP+ also increased the concentration of a selective autophagic target sequestosome-1/p62 and reduced the levels of lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 and cytoplasmic acidification, suggesting that MPP+-induced autophagy was coupled with a decrease in autophagic flux. Nevertheless, further pharmacological inhibition of autophagy sensitized SH-SY5Y cells to MPP+-induced death. Antioxidants and AMPK knockdown reduced, whereas genetic inactivation of Akt potentiated neurotoxin-triggered autophagy. These results suggest that MPP+-induced oxidative stress stimulates AMPK, which protects SH-SY5Y cells through early activation of antioxidative Akt and late induction of cytoprotective autophagy.

AB  - Introduction: Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) is in
clinical investigation for treatment of acute myeloid
leukemia due to its differentiating ability. Cell differentiation could be accompanied by senescence, a state
of irreversible cell cycle arrest.
Our aim was to investigate the ability of PMA to initiate
senescence in HL60 human leukemia cells.
Methods: Cell morphology was analyzed using phase
contrast microscopy. Cell cycle arrest was assessed
by flow cytometric analysis of propidium iodide stained
cells and BrdU colorimetric assay. Activity of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-βgal) was
assessed by cytochemical staining and flow cytometric analysis of fluorescein di-β-D-galactopyranoside
(FDG) stained cells. Senescence-associated gene expression of: cell cycle inhibitor p21, interleukin-8 (IL-8),
lamin B1 were quantified by RT-PCR, while activation
of NF-κB, main regulator of senescence associated secretory phenotype, was examined by immunoblotting.
Results: After the PMA treatment HL60 were enlarged and flattened with cytoplasmic vacuoles resembling morphology of senescent cells. Block in
leukemia cell proliferation in G1 phase was accompanied with increase in expression of cell cycle inhibitor p21 in PMA treated cells. Finally, PMA stimulated
SA-βgal activity, expression of genes responsible for
senescence associated secretory phenotype, NF-κB
and IL-8, while downregulating Lamin B1 expression.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that in addition to
PMA-induced cellular differentiation, senescence
participates in its previously shown cytostatic effect,
further supporting its investigation as a potential antileukemic drug.

AB  - The goal of this study was to investigate ascorbate and menadione potential to induce oxidative stress and autophagy in U251 human glioblastoma cells in vitro. To this purpose, U251 cells were treated with single and combined doses of ascorbate and menadione. Cell viability was assessed by crystal violet test.
Changes in mitochondrial membrane potential, superoxide production, apoptosis, and autophagy were determined by flow cytometry using appropriate fluorochromes (JC-1, MitoSox, Annexin-Propidium iodide, and LysoTracker Red, respectively). Activation of the main autophagy repressor mTOR, and its target
S6K, expression of proautophagic protein p62, and conversion of LC3I to LC3II were assessed by immunoblot, while transfection with LC3 siRNA was used to determine the role of autophagy in glioma cell death. Treatment with single doses of ascorbate and menadione did not affect the viability of U251 cells, while their combination resulted in significant dose-dependent cytotoxic effect. This was associated with mitochondrial depolarization followed by increase in concentration of mitochondria-derived superoxide, and finally by apoptosis. Menadione and cotreatment induced increase in the content of acidic autophagic-like vesicles and autophagosome-associated LC3II protein, while decreased concentration of autophagic proteolysis substrate p62. The expression of LC3II was additionally elevated in the presence of proteolysis inhibitor, suggesting increase in autophagic flux. Reduced activity of mTOR and S6K indicate that detected autophagy was mTOR-dependent. Induced autophagy was cytotoxic, since its inhibition by LC3 RNA interference recovered viability of glioma cells. To conclude, combination of ascorbate and menadione synergistically induced oxidative stress, apoptosis, and mTOR-dependent cytotoxic autophagy in U251 cells.

AB  - BACKGROUND Glioblastoma multiforme (GMB) is the most malignant of all brain tumors with poor prognosis. Anticancer potential of xanthones, bioactive compounds found in Gentiana dinarica, is well-documented. Transformation of G. dinarica roots with Agrobacterium rhizogenes provides higher xanthones accumulation, which enables better exploitation of these anticancer compounds. HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate antiglioma effect of three different G. dinarica extracts: E1—derived from untransformed roots, E2—derived from roots transformed using A. rhizogenes strain A4M70GUS, and E3—derived from roots transformed using A. rhizogenes strain 15834/PI. Further, mechanisms involved in anticancer potential of the most potent extract were examined in detail, and its active component was determined. METHODS The cell viability was assessed using MTT and crystal violet test. Cell cycle analysis, the expression of differentiation markers, the levels of autophagy, and oxidative stress were analyzed by flow cytometry. Autophagy and related signaling pathways were assessed by immunoblotting. RESULTS E3, in contrast to E1 and E2, strongly reduced growth of U251 human glioblastoma cells, triggered cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase, changed cellular morphology, and increased expression of markers of differentiated astrocytes (glial fibrillary acidic protein) and neurons (β-tubulin). E3 stimulated autophagy, as demonstrated by enhanced intracellular acidification, increased microtubule-associated light chain 3B (LC3-I) conversion to autophagosome associated LC3-II, and decreased level of selective autophagy target p62. Induction of autophagy was associated with Akt-dependent inhibition of main autophagy suppressor mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Both genetic and pharmacological inhibition of autophagy suppressed the expression of differentiation markers, but had no effect on cell cycle arrest in E3-treated cells. E3 stimulated oxidative stress, and antioxidants vitamin E and N-acetyl cysteine inhibited autophagy and differentiation of E3-treated U251 cells. The most prevalent compound of E3, xanthone aglycone norswertianin, also arrested glioblastoma cell proliferation in G2/M phase and induced glioblastoma cell differentiation through induction of autophagy and oxidative stress. CONCLUSION These results indicate that E3 and its main active component norswertianin may serve as a potential candidate for differentiation therapy of glioblastoma.

AB  - We investigated the role of the intracellular energy-sensing AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway in the in vitro antiglioma effect of the cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor indomethacin. Indomethacin was more potent than COX inhibitors diclofenac, naproxen, and ketoprofen in reducing the viability of U251 human glioma cells. Antiglioma effect of the drug was associated with p21 increase and G2M cell cycle arrest, as well as with oxidative stress, mitochondrial depolarization, caspase activation, and the induction of apoptosis. Indomethacin increased the phosphorylation of AMPK and its targets Raptor and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), and reduced the phosphorylation of mTOR and mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) substrates p70S6 kinase and PRAS40 (Ser183). AMPK knockdown by RNA interference, as well as the treatment with the mTORC1 activator leucine, prevented indomethacin-mediated mTORC1 inhibition and cytotoxic action, while AMPK activators metformin and AICAR mimicked the effects of the drug. AMPK activation by indomethacin correlated with intracellular ATP depletion and increase in AMP/ATP ratio, and was apparently independent of COX inhibition or the increase in intracellular calcium. Finally, the toxicity of indomethacin towards primary human glioma cells was associated with the activation of AMPK/Raptor/ACC and subsequent suppression of mTORC1/S6K. By demonstrating the involvement of AMPK/mTORC1 pathway in the antiglioma action of indomethacin, our results support its further exploration in glioma therapy.

AB  - Autophagy, a catabolic process involving intracellular degradation of unnecessary or dysfunctional cellular components through the lysosomal machinery, could act as a prosurvival, as well as a cytotoxic mechanism (Parzych and Klionsky, 2014) [1]. Cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin inhibits proliferation of glioma cells, and has been reported to reduce the activity of the main autophagy repressor mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) (Pantovic et al., 2016) [2]. Here we investigated the ability of indomethacin to induce autophagy in U251 human glioma cells. We assessed the influence of indomethacin on intracellular acidification, expression of proautophagic protein beclin-1, and conversion of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3-I (LC3-I) to autophagosome-associated LC3-II, in the presence or absence of lysosomal inhibitors. The effect of genetic and pharmacological downregulation of autophagy on the cytotoxicity of indomethacin was also evaluated.

AB  - The new coumarine derivative, 3-(1-(3-hydroxypropylamino)ethylidene)chroman-2,4-dione, and corresponding palladium(II) complex have been synthesized and characterized by microanalysis, infrared, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The structure of the ligand, solved using a monocrystal X-ray structural analysis, consists of two crystallographic different pseudocentrosymmetrically related molecules of 3-(1-(3-hydroxypropylamino)ethylidene)chroman-2,4-dione, while the structure of the square-planar palladium(II) complex was proposed on the basis of DFT calculations. The palladium(II) complex decreased viability of U251 human glioma and B16 mouse melanoma cells in a dose and time dependent manner, while its ligand exhibited only moderate cytotoxicity.

AB  - We investigated the in vitro and in vivo anticancer effect of combining lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP)-inducing agent N-dodecylimidazole (NDI) with glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG). NDI-triggered LMP and 2DG-me diated glycolysis block synergized in inducing rapid ATP
depletion, mitochondrial damage, and reactive oxygen species production, eventually leading to necrotic death of U251 glioma cells but not primary astrocytes. NDI/2DG-induced death of glioma cells was partly prevented by lysosomal cathepsin inhibitor E64 and antioxidant a-tocopherol, suggesting the involvement of LMP and oxidative stress in the observed cytotoxicity. LMP-inducing agent chloroquine also displayed a synergistic anticancer effect with 2DG, whereas glucose deprivation or glycolytic inhibitors iodoacetate and sodium fluoride synergistically cooperated with NDI, thus further indicating that the anticancer
effect of NDI/2DG combination was indeed due to LMP and glycolysis block. The two agents synergistically induced ATP depletion, mitochondrial depolarization, oxidative stress, and necrotic death also in B16 mouse melanoma cells. Moreover, the combined oral administration of NDI and 2DG reduced in vivo melanoma growth in C57BL/6 mice by inducing necrotic death of tumor cells, without causing liver, spleen, or kidney toxicity. Based on these results, we propose that NDI-triggered LMP causes initial mitochondrial damage that is further increased by 2DG due to the lack of glycolytic ATP required to maintain mitochondrial health. This leads to a positive feedback cycle of mitochondrial dysfunction, ATP loss, and reactive oxygen species production, culminating in necrotic cell death. Therefore, the combination of LMP-inducing agents and glycolysis inhibitors seems worthy of further exploration as an
anticancer strategy.

AB  - Marrubium vulgare is a European medicinal plant with numerous beneficial effects on human health. The aim of the study was to isolate the plant ethanolic extract (MVE) and to investigate its anti-melanoma and anti-glioma effects. MVE was prepared by the modified pharmacopoeial percolation method and characterized by UHPLC-LTQ OrbiTrap MS. MVE dose-dependently reduced viability of melanoma (B16) and glioma (U251) cells, but not peripheral blood mononuclear cells. It arrested cell cycle in S+G2/M phase, which was associated with the activation of MAP kinase p38 and up-regulation of antiproliferative genes p53, p21 and p27. MVE induced oxidative stress, while antioxidants abrogated its antitumor effect. Furthermore, MVE induced mitochondrial depolarization, activation of caspase-9 and -3, Parp cleavage, phosphatidylserine exposure and DNA fragmentation. The mitochondrial apoptotic pathway was associated with the up-regulation of proapoptotic genes Pten, Bak1, Apaf1, and Puma and down-regulation of antiapoptotic genes survivin and Xiap. MVE also stimulated the expression of autophagy-related genes Atg5, Atg7, Atg12, Beclin-1, Gabarab and Sqstm1, as well as LC3-I conversion to the autophagosome associated LC3-II, while autophagy inhibitors exacerbated its cytotoxicity. Finally, the most abundant phenolic components of MVE, ferulic, p-hydroxybenzoic, caffeic and chlorogenic acids, did not exert a profound effect on viability of tumor cells, suggesting that other components individually or in concert are the mediators of the extracts' cytotoxicity. By demonstrating the ability of MVE to inhibit proliferation, induce apoptosis and cytoprotective autophagy, our results suggest that MVE, alone or combined with autophagy inhibitors, could be a good candidate for anti-melanoma and anti-glioma therapy.

of the troglophilic ground beetle Laemostenus (Pristonychus) punctatus (Dejean,
1828), applying microdilution method with the aim to detect minimal inhibitory concentration,
minimal bactericidal concentration and minimal fungicidal concentration,
has been investigated. In addition, morphology of the pygidial glands is observed.
Wehave tested 16 laboratory and clinical strains of human pathogens – eight bacterial
both gram-positive and gram-negative species and eight fungal species. The pygidial
secretion samples have showed antimicrobial properties against all strains of treated
bacteria and fungi. Micrococcus flavus proved to be more resistant compared with
other bacterial strains. More significant antimicrobial properties of the secretion are
observed against Escherichia coli, which proved to be the most sensitive bacteria.
Aspergillus fumigatus proved to be the most resistant, while Penicillium ochrochloron and
Penicillium verrucosum var. cyclopium themost sensitive micromycetes. Commercial antibiotics
Streptomycin and Ampicillin and antimycotics Ketoconazole and Bifonazole, applied
as positive controls, showed higher antibacterial properties for all bacterial and
fungal strains, except for P. ochrochloron, which proved to be more resistant on
Ketoconazole compared with the pygidial gland secretion of L. (P.) punctatus. Apart
from the role in ecological aspects, the antimicrobial properties of the tested secretion
possibly might have medical significance in the future.

NDI-triggered LMP and 2DG-mediated glycolysis block synergized in inducing rapid ATP depletion, mitochondrial
damage, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, eventually leading to necrotic death
of U251 glioma cells, but not primary astrocytes. NDI/2DG-induced death of glioma cells was
partly prevented by lysosomal cathepsin inhibitor E64 and antioxidant α-tocopherol, indicating the involvement of LMP and oxidative stress in the observed cytotoxicity. LMP-inducing agents chloroquine and NH4Cl also displayed synergistic anticancer effect with 2DG, while glycolytic inhibitors iodoacetate and sodium fluoride synergistically cooperated with NDI, thus confirming that the anticancer effect of NDI/2DG combination was indeed due to LMP and glycolysis block, respectively. Based on these results, we propose that NDI-triggered LMP causes initial mitochondrial damage that is further increased by 2DG due to the lack of glycolytic ATP required to maintain mitochondrial health. This leads to a positive
feedback cycle of mitochondrial dysfunction, ATP loss, and ROS production, culminating in necrotic cell death. Therefore, the combination of LMP-inducing agents and glycolysis inhibitors seems worthy of further exploration as an anticancer strategy.",

AB  - We investigated the role of autophagy, a stress-inducible lysosomal self-digestion of cellular components, in modulation of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-triggered death of U251 human glioma cells. HSV-1 caused apoptotic death in U251 cells, characterized by phosphatidylserine externalization, caspase activation and DNA fragmentation. HSV-1-induced apoptosis was associated with the induction of autophagic response, as confirmed by the conversion of cytosolic LC3-I to autophagosome-associated LC3-II, increase in intracellular acidification, presence of autophagic vesicles, and increase in proteolysis of the selective autophagic target p62. HSV-1-triggered autophagy was not associated with the significant increase in the expression of proautophagic protein beclin-1 or downregulation of the major autophagy suppressor mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Moreover, the phosphorylation of mTOR and its direct substrate p70 S6 kinase was augmented by HSV-1 infection, while the mTOR stimulator Akt and inhibitor AMPK-activated protein kinase (AMPK) were accordingly activated and suppressed, respectively. An shRNA-mediated knockdown of the autophagy-essential LC3b, as well as pharmacological inhibition of autophagy with bafilomycin A1 or 3-methyladenine, markedly accelerated apoptotic changes and ensuing cell death in HSV-1-infected glioma cells. These data indicate that AMPK/Akt/mTOR-independent autophagy could prolong survival of HSV-1-infected U251 glioma cells by counteracting the coinciding apoptotic response.

AB  - We investigated the ability of 19 recently synthesized arylpiperazine compounds to protect human SHSY5Y neuroblastoma cells from the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). The compound with the most potent neuroprotective action was N-{3-[2-(4-phenyl-piperazin-1-yl)-ethyl]-phenyl}-picolinamide (6b), which reduced 6-OHDA-induced apoptotic death through stabilization of mitochondrial membrane and subsequent prevention of superoxide production, caspase activation and DNA fragmentation. 6-OHDA-triggered autophagic response was also reduced by 6b, which prevented inactivation of the main autophagy repressor mTOR, upregulation of proautophagic beclin-1, conversion of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-I to autophagosome-associated LC3-II, as well as intracytoplasmic acidification induced by 6-OHDA. The inhibition of autophagy using LC3b gene silencing or pharmacological autophagy blockers 3-methyladenine or bafilomycin A1, mimicked the cytoprotective effect of 6b. While the treatment with 6b had no effect on the phosphorylation of proapoptotic MAP kinases ERK and JNK, it markedly increased the phosphorylation of the prosurvival kinase Akt in 6-OHDA-treated cells. Akt inhibitor DEBC or RNA interference-mediated Akt silencing reduced the ability of 6b to block 6-OHDA-triggered apoptotic and autophagic responses, thus confirming their dependency on Akt activation. The cytoprotective effect of 6b was also observed in 6-OHDA-treated neuronal PC12 cells, but not in SH-SY5Y or PC12 cells exposed to 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium, indicating that the observed neuroprotection was dependent on the cytotoxic stimulus. Because of the ability to prevent 6-OHDA induced apoptotic/autophagic cell death through activation of Akt, the investigated arylpiperazines could be potential candidates for treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

AB  - Introduction: Neural differentiation involves
intracellular signaling-controlled maturation of neural
progenitors into cells with fully developed neuronal
phenotype.
Aim: We explored the interplay between the
adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase
(AMPK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and
autophagy in phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced
differentiation of SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells.
Methods: The levels of neuronal marker expression
and acidification of autophagic compartments were
determined by flow cytometry of cells labeled with
appropriate antibodies and acridine orange, respectively.
The activation (phosphorylation) of AMPK and ERK, as
well as the levels of autophagic proteins beclin-1, Atg7,
microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3) and p62,
were assessed using immunoblot. RNA interference was
used for AMPK and LC3 knockdown.
Results: PMA initiated autophagic response in SH-
SY5Y cells simultaneously with activation of AMPK, a
major intracellular energy sensor, and ERK, a kinase
involved in cell proliferation and differentiation.
Pharmacological inhibition of AMPK or AMPK gene
silencing attenuated differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells, as
well as PMA-induced ERK activation and autophagy. A
selective pharmacological blockade of ERK prevented
PMA-induced neuronal differentiation and autophagy
induction, without affecting AMPK phosphorylation. On the
other hand, the inhibition of autophagy downstream of
AMPK/ERK activation, either by pharmacological agents or
LC3 knockdown, actually promoted the expression of
neuronal markers, thus indicating a role for autophagy in
suppression of PMA-induced differentiation of SH-SY5Y
cells.
Conclusion: PMA-induced differentiation of SH-
SY5Y cells depends on a complex interplay between
AMPK, ERK and autophagy, where AMPK and ERK
promote differentiation independently of autophagy, while
simultaneously inhibiting differentiation process through
autophagy-dependent mechanisms.
AB  - Uvod: Diferencijacija neurona je proces
kontrolisan od strane nekoliko unutarćelijskih signala. U
toku diferencijacije dolazi do potpunog sazrevanja
progenitorskih ćelija u neurone.
Cilj: Cilj ovog rada je bio da se ispita uloga protein
kinaze regulisane adenozin monofosfatom (AMPK), kinaze
regulisane vanćelijskim signalima (ERK) i autofagije tokom
diferencijacije humanih neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y izazvane
forbol miristat acetatom (PMA).
Metode: Ekspresija neuronskih markera i
autofagija su praćene pomoću protočnog citofluorimetra
nakon bojenja ćelija sa odgovarajućim antitelima, odnosno
akridin oranžom. Aktivnosti AMPK, ERK, beklina, Atg7,
proteina lakog lanca 3 povezanog sa mikrotubulima (LC3),
p62, p70S6K i aktina su odreñene pomoću imunoblota.
Utišavanje AMPK i LC3 gena je izvedeno pomoću malih
interferirajućih RNK.
Rezultati: Istovremeno sa započinjanjem
autofagije, PMA je aktivirao AMPK protein, glavni
energetski senzor u ćeliji, i ERK kinazu, zaduženu za

abstract = "Introduction: Neural differentiation involves
intracellular signaling-controlled maturation of neural
progenitors into cells with fully developed neuronal
phenotype.
Aim: We explored the interplay between the
adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase
(AMPK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and
autophagy in phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced
differentiation of SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells.
Methods: The levels of neuronal marker expression
and acidification of autophagic compartments were
determined by flow cytometry of cells labeled with
appropriate antibodies and acridine orange, respectively.
The activation (phosphorylation) of AMPK and ERK, as
well as the levels of autophagic proteins beclin-1, Atg7,
microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3) and p62,
were assessed using immunoblot. RNA interference was
used for AMPK and LC3 knockdown.
Results: PMA initiated autophagic response in SH-
SY5Y cells simultaneously with activation of AMPK, a
major intracellular energy sensor, and ERK, a kinase
involved in cell proliferation and differentiation.
Pharmacological inhibition of AMPK or AMPK gene
silencing attenuated differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells, as
well as PMA-induced ERK activation and autophagy. A
selective pharmacological blockade of ERK prevented
PMA-induced neuronal differentiation and autophagy
induction, without affecting AMPK phosphorylation. On the
other hand, the inhibition of autophagy downstream of
AMPK/ERK activation, either by pharmacological agents or
LC3 knockdown, actually promoted the expression of
neuronal markers, thus indicating a role for autophagy in
suppression of PMA-induced differentiation of SH-SY5Y
cells.
Conclusion: PMA-induced differentiation of SH-
SY5Y cells depends on a complex interplay between
AMPK, ERK and autophagy, where AMPK and ERK
promote differentiation independently of autophagy, while
simultaneously inhibiting differentiation process through
autophagy-dependent mechanisms., Uvod: Diferencijacija neurona je proces
kontrolisan od strane nekoliko unutarćelijskih signala. U
toku diferencijacije dolazi do potpunog sazrevanja
progenitorskih ćelija u neurone.
Cilj: Cilj ovog rada je bio da se ispita uloga protein
kinaze regulisane adenozin monofosfatom (AMPK), kinaze
regulisane vanćelijskim signalima (ERK) i autofagije tokom
diferencijacije humanih neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y izazvane
forbol miristat acetatom (PMA).
Metode: Ekspresija neuronskih markera i
autofagija su praćene pomoću protočnog citofluorimetra
nakon bojenja ćelija sa odgovarajućim antitelima, odnosno
akridin oranžom. Aktivnosti AMPK, ERK, beklina, Atg7,
proteina lakog lanca 3 povezanog sa mikrotubulima (LC3),
p62, p70S6K i aktina su odreñene pomoću imunoblota.
Utišavanje AMPK i LC3 gena je izvedeno pomoću malih
interferirajućih RNK.
Rezultati: Istovremeno sa započinjanjem
autofagije, PMA je aktivirao AMPK protein, glavni
energetski senzor u ćeliji, i ERK kinazu, zaduženu za
regulaciju diferencijacije i proliferacije. Farmakološka
inhibicija AMPK i utišavanje gena za AMPK usporili su
diferencijaciju SH-SY5Y ćelija, i inhibirali su aktivaciju
ERK kinaze i autofagiju izazvane pomoću PMA. Blokiranje
aktivnosti ERK proteina pomoću specifičnog inhibitora

AB  - We investigated the role of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), Akt, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), autophagy and their interplay in osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells. The activation of various members of AMPK, Akt and mTOR signaling pathways and autophagy was analyzed by immunoblotting, while osteogenic differentiation was assessed by alkaline phosphatase staining and real-time RT-PCR/immunoblot quantification of osteocalcin, Runt-related transcription factor 2 and bone morphogenetic protein 2 mRNA and/or protein levels. Osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells was associated with early (day 1) activation of AMPK and its target Raptor, coinciding with the inhibition of mTOR and its substrate p70S6 kinase. The early induction of autophagy was demonstrated by accumulation of autophagosome-bound LC3-11, upregulation of proautophagic,beclin-1 and a decrease in the selective autophagic target p62. This was followed by the late activation of Akt/mTOR at days 3-7 of differentiation. The RNA interference-mediated silencing of AMPK, mTOR or autophagy-essential LC3 beta, as well as the pharmacological inhibitors of AMPK (compound C), Akt (10-DEBC hydrochloride), mTOR (rapamycin) and autophagy (bafilomycin A1, chloroquine and ammonium chloride), each suppressed mesenchymal stem cell differentiation to osteoblasts. AMPK knockdown prevented early mTOR inhibition and autophagy induction, as well as late activation of Akt/mTOR signaling, while Ala inhibition suppressed mTOR activation without affecting AMPK phosphorylation. Our data indicate that AMPK controls osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells through both early mTOR inhibition-mediated autophagy and late activation of Akt/mTOR signaling axis.

AB  - The excellent photoluminescent properties of graphene quantum dots (GQD) makes them suitable candidates for biomedical applications, but their cytotoxicity has not been extensively studied. Here we show that electrochemically produced GQD irradiated with blue light (470. nm, 1. W) generate reactive oxygen species, including singlet oxygen, and kill U251 human glioma cells by causing oxidative stress. The cell death induced by photoexcited GQD displayed morphological and/or biochemical characteristics of both apoptosis (phosphatidylserine externalization, caspase activation, DNA fragmentation) and autophagy (formation of autophagic vesicles, LC3-I/LC3-II conversion, degradation of autophagic target p62). Moreover, a genetic inactivation of autophagy-essential LC3B protein partly abrogated the photodynamic cytotoxicity of GQD. These data indicate potential usefulness of GQD in photodynamic therapy, but also raise concerns about their possible toxicity.

AB  - The role of the main intracellular energy sensor adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in the induction of autophagic response and cell death was investigated in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells exposed to the dopaminergic neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). The induction of autophagy in SH-SY5Y cells was demonstrated by acridine orange staining of intracellular acidic vesicles, the presence of autophagosome- and autophagolysosome-like vesicles confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, as well as by microtubule-associated protein 1 light-chain 3 (LC3) conversion and p62 degradation detected by immunoblotting. 6-OHDA induced phosphorylation of AMPK and its target Raptor, followed by the dephosphorylation of the major autophagy inhibitor mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and its substrate p70S6 kinase (S6K). 6-OHDA treatment failed to suppress mTOR/S6K phosphorylation and to increase LC3 conversion, p62 degradation and cytoplasmatic acidification in neuroblastoma cells in which AMPK expression was downregulated by RNA interference. Transfection of SH-SY5Y cells with AMPK or LC3β shRNA, as well as treatment with pharmacological autophagy inhibitors suppressed, while mTOR inhibitor rapamycin potentiated 6-OHDA-induced oxidative stress and apoptotic cell death. 6-OHDA induced phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase in an AMPK-dependent manner, and pharmacological inhibition of p38 MAP kinase reduced neurotoxicity, but not AMPK activation and autophagy triggered by 6-OHDA. Finally, the antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine antagonized 6-OHDA-induced activation of AMPK, p38 and autophagy. These data suggest that oxidative stress-mediated AMPK/mTOR-dependent autophagy and AMPK/p38-dependent apoptosis could be valid therapeutic targets for neuroprotection.
