| Popis: | Auricularia polytricha and Flammulina velutipes are two dietary mushrooms mostly consumed in China and known for their traditional use on gastric ulceration and to boost bowel movement. Considering the gut-liver axis, which has been recognized for its role in the autoimmune modulation, and the implications of the intestinal barrier in the pathogenesis of liver diseases that remain unclear, the therapeutic effects of A. polytricha (APE) and F. velutipes (FVE) on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-induced liver injury in mice was investigated as well as their potential mechanism via the signaling pathways they could involve. 3% DSS was administered to the mice in drinking water, to induce ulcerative colitis, followed by oral administration of APE and FVE. The biochemical, oxidative stress and inflammatory parameters, mRNA and protein expressions were assessed. The results revealed that DSS-induced liver histopathological changes were ameliorated by APE and FVE treatment. APE and FVE administration also improved the ALT and AST activity as well as the pro-inflammatory cytokines and oxidative factors. Data also showed that, in addition to their regulation of tight junctions' disruption, APE and FVE attenuated genes and proteins expression involved in apoptosis, lipid metabolism, and bile acid homeostasis via inhibiting TLR4/NF-κB and caspase signaling pathways and stimulating Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathways. In conclusion, APE and FVE regulated liver injury on DSS-induced ulcerative colitis by alleviating inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, suggesting that they could be used as therapeutic alternatives against liver diseases in addition to their functions as dietary supplements. |
