現在、”食品予防医学の包括的理解に向けて、生体ならびに食品中の低分子生理活性化合物のユニークな挙動に着目した高解像度の表現型解析システム(ケミカルセンシング技術)の創出”をめざして、以下に示した研究テーマを推進している。 (1)フードケミカルバイオロジーに基づく食品予防医学研究 食品中に含まれる低分子化合物をプローブとして、その生体内標的分子の機能解析を通じて生命現象の一端を理解し、それを応用しようとする試み”フードケミカルバイオロジー”を推し進めている。具体的に、食事ポリフェノール・緑茶カテキンの生体内標的分子(緑茶カテキン受容体)を介した機能性発現経路(抗ガンおよび抗アレルギー作用)の解明を目指している。このような研究により得られた研究成果は、特定の機能性食品成分を配合した疾病予防食(個人の効き方に対応したテーラーメイド食)創製に寄与するだけでなく、その食品成分の機能を模倣した全く新しいコンセプトに基づいた分子標的創薬への応用展開が期待される。 (2)多元的質量分析による高精度メタボリック・プロファイリングシステムの開発 レドックス関連疾患(がんや糖尿病など)の病理診断やバイオマーカー探索に必要な低分子量代謝物の高精度網羅的解析方法を確立するため、種々の質量分析計を組合せた統合的解析技術(高精度メタボリック・プロファイリングシステム)の開発を行っている。本システム開発は従来にない高感度で病態標的性の高い質量分析の基盤技術を提供するものであり、臨床における低侵襲的解析への応用をめざしている。 (3)ニュートリメタボロミクスを切り拓く高精度質量分析システムの開発 近年、食品(農林水産物)の品質鑑定・予測ならびにそれら要因解析の新たな手法として、食品中の低分子成分(代謝物)を標的とした代謝物プロファイリング法が注目を集めているが、現状では、それらの食品機能性(三次機能:生体調節機能)分野への応用は皆無である。これに対して、我々は高速液体クロマトグラフ質量分析・多変量統計解析に基づく代謝物プロファイリング法が数十種類の茶(Camellia sinensis L.)品種の機能性評価(機能性品種の識別化や機能性予測モデルの構築/生理活性因子や共存成分バランスの解明など)に極めて有効であることを世界に先駆けて報告している。このような知見は、機能性を付与した新たな品種開発や既存品種の有用性発掘に大いに役立つことが期待される。試料中の複数成分間の相関関係(線形・非線形性)を捉える代謝物プロファイリング法(新たな食品機能性評価メタボロミクス:ニュートリメタボロミクス)は、食品機能性の理解に不可欠な成分間/食品間相互作用に関する基礎情報の取得を可能にし、機能性成分を活用した食品開発や食品の食べ合わせに役立つ新たな科学的根拠の創出に寄与すると思われる。

    There are few studies on the connection between food components and circular RNA (circRNA), a type of noncoding RNA that is significant for living organisms. (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG) has been reported to have various biological effects, and elucidation of the molecular mechanism is important for clarifying the functionality of EGCG. In the current study, we looked at how EGCG regulates the expression of circRNA in the liver, which expresses a lot of circRNAs. Mice were given EGCG (10 mg/kg b.w.) orally for one week before circRNA microarray testing was done on their livers. The microarray analysis revealed that mice treated with EGCG had altered expression of 35 circRNAs in their livers. To clarify the function of mmu_circRNA_011775, one of the circRNAs upregulated by EGCG, mouse liver cells after the mmu_circRNA_011775 expression vector was transfected into NMuLi cells, next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to analyze the gene expression. NGS analysis shows that the expression of the genes responsible for liver fibrosis and inflammation. Gene ontology (GO) analysis showed that mmu_circRNA_011775 changed the meaning of GO terms associated with the cardiovascular system. In the microarray, EGCG altered 35 genes expression. Among them, pre-ribosomal RNA-derived circRNA mmu_circRNA_011775 regulated the expression of various genes related to liver fibrosis and cardiovascular system.

  • 67-kDa laminin receptor mediates oolonghomobisflavan B-induced cell growth inhibition in melanoma. Reviewed International journal

    BACKGROUND: Oolonghomobisflavans are unique polyphenols found in oolong teas. Oolonghomobisflavan B (OHBFB), a dimer of (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG), is an active compound found in green tea. PURPOSE: OHBFB has been reported to exert an inhibitory effect on lipase enzyme activity. However, little is known regarding its intercellular signaling induction effect. Further, there are no reports describing the anti-cancer effects of OHBFB. METHODS: The effect of OFBFB on B16 melanoma cells was evaluated by cell counting, and its mechanisms were determined by western blot analysis with or without protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) inhibitor treatment. Intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels were evaluated by time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer analysis. Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) analysis was performed to assess the binding of OHBFB to 67LR. RESULTS: Cell growth assay and western blot analyses showed that OHBFB inhibited melanoma cell growth, followed by myosin phosphatase target subunit 1 (MYPT1) and myosin regulatory light chain (MRLC) dephosphorylation via protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A)-dependent mechanisms. These effects are mediated by intracellular cAMP- and protein kinase A (PKA) A-dependent mechanisms. QCM analysis identified the 67-kDa laminin receptor (67LR) as an OHBFB receptor with a Kd of 3.7 µM. We also demonstrated for the first time that OHBFB intake suppresses tumor growth in vivo. CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, these results indicate that the cAMP/PKA/PP2A/MYPT1/MRLC pathway is a key mediator of melanoma cell growth inhibition following OHBFB binding to 67LR and that OHBFB suppresses tumor growth in vivo.

    (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG) is one of the major components of green tea polyphenol. Previous studies have shown that EGCG induces cancer-specific cell death in vitro and in vivo without causing severe side effects. However, the anti-cancer effect of EGCG alone is limited. 5,7-dimethoxyflavone (5,7-DMF), one of the principal functional components of black ginger (Kaempferia parviflora), also exerts anti-cancer effects. Here, we show that 5,7-DMF synergistically enhances the anti-cancer effect of EGCG in multiple myeloma cells by potentiating EGCG-induced intracellular cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) production. Moreover, the combination of EGCG and 5,7-DMF induces apoptotic cell death in multiple myeloma cells, and this is accompanied by activation of the cGMP/acid sphingomyelinase (ASM)/cleaved caspase-3 pathway. In conclusion, we have shown that 5,7-DMF enhances the anti-cancer effect of EGCG by upregulating cGMP in multiple myeloma cells.

    Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a type of cancer with a high mortality rate. Current treatments for PDACs often have side effects, and drug resistance in cancer stem cells (CSCs) would be also a problem. Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) suppresses the mitochondrial function of PDACs and inhibits their CSC properties. Metabolic regulation plays a crucial role in the maintenance of CSC phenotype, and we hypothesized that cGMP induction suppresses cancer stem cell properties in the cancer cell through energy-related signaling pathways. We demonstrated that induction of cGMP upregulated the PPARα/PDK4 pathway and suppressed CSC properties in PDAC, and patients with pancreatic cancer with high PDK4 gene expression had a better prognosis than those with low gene expression. Therefore, these mechanisms may provide new therapeutic targets for the eradication of pancreatic CSCs.

    Introduction: Epidemiological studies indicated that inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis as its two main types, is associated with dementia. However, little is known about how adolescents with IBD will affect their cognitive ability as adults. The hippocampus, which is crucial for memory and adult neurogenesis, is closely associated with modulation of cognitive processes. Using a low kDa dextran sulfate sodium (DSS, 5 kDa)-induced chronic colitis (mild chronic colitis) mice model in adolescent mice, we investigated the effects of mild chronic colitis on cognitive functions and hippocampal neurogenesis from adolescent mice to adult mice. Methods: We induced DSS-induced mild chronic colitis in C57BL/6J male mice by multiple-cycle administration of 1%-2% DSS in autoclaved drinking water. Mice were subjected to novel-object recognition and Y-maze tests. Neurogenesis markers and neuroinflammation-related proteins in the hippocampus of mice were measured. Tight junction proteins in the colon of mice were measured. Results: Mild chronic colitis induced cognitive impairment and decreased adult neurogenesis. Notably, we found a positive correlation with the protein levels between tight junction protein, ZO-1, in the colon and mature neuron marker, NeuN, in the hippocampus. Moreover, mild chronic colitis leads to hippo-campal neuroinflammation in adolescent mice. Conclusion: Our findings provide new evidence of the association between IBD and dementia risk.

    The body is equipped with a "food factor-sensing system" that senses food factors, such as polyphenols, sulfur-containing compounds, and vitamins, taken into the body, and plays an essential role in manifesting their physiological effects. For example, (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG), the representative catechin in green tea (Camellia sinensi L.), exerts various effects, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and anti-allergic effects, when sensed by the cell surficial protein 67-kDa laminin receptor (67LR). Here, we focus on three representative effects of EGCG and provide their specific signaling mechanisms, the 67LR-mediated EGCG-sensing systems. Various components present in foods, such as eriodictyol, hesperetin, sulfide, vitamin A, and fatty acids, have been found to act on the food factor-sensing system and affect the functionality of other foods/food factors, such as green tea extract, EGCG, or its O-methylated derivative at different experimental levels, i.e., in vitro, animal models, and/or clinical trials. These phenomena are observed by increasing or decreasing the activity or expression of EGCG-sensing-related molecules. Such functional interaction between food factors is called "functional food pairing". In this review, we introduce examples of functional food pairings using EGCG.

    本研究では、肝線維化の制御因子として期待されている「非コードRNA(環状/マイクロRNA)の発現プロファイル」 と 「病態に関連した代謝変動」 を統合的に解析することで、線維化における病態形成機序の一端を解明する。また、線維化病態に特徴的な非コードRNAと代謝物の挙動を指標とすることで、現状では科学的エビデンスの乏しい植物由来生理活性成分(ファイトケミカル)の肝線維化改善メカニズムを明らかにする。
