Introduction: The knowledge about the biology of obesity and apoptosis induction of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) may support in the development of new therapies. Objective: The present research aimed to investigate the toxicogenic effect of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) as well as its influence in the adipogenic differentiation and expression of genes related to DNA damage, cell cycle and thermogenesis. Methodology: Cell cultures of human adipose-derived stem cells were treated for 12 hours with ATRA (20.75 μM) and were performed the adipogenic differentiation, comet assay, micronucleous, cell death, cell cycle and qPCR. Results: The ATRA treatment decreased the capacity of adipogenic differentiation of ADSCs. The comet assay demonstrated increase in nucleoid frequency with genomic damage and scoring. However, these damages were not fixed at the chromosome level, since the tail moment was not significant. The treatment with ATRA increased cytotoxicity and increased cell death by apoptosis. The relative expression of CHEK-1, CHEK-2, CDC25A, CDC25C, ATM and ATR decreased and only UCP1 increased significantly. Conclusion: The results of the present study demonstrate that the use of ATRA induces genomic damage in ADSCs, although it was eliminated in the apoptosis process. Therefore, administration of ATRA in ADSCs did not cause chromosomal instability, which suggests toxicogenic safety. Also it was considered that ATRA might active the browning effect. Thus, this compound is considered a promising candidate for the development of novel therapies for the treatment of obesity and / or localized fat by the use of mesotherapy.

Background: Colorectal cancer is a highly prevalent disease, requiring effective strategies for prevention and treatment. The present research aimed to formulate a natural fiber-rich food product (NFRFP) and to evaluate its safety, toxicogenetics, and effects on aberrant crypt foci induced by 1,2-dimethyl-hydrazine in a preclinical model. Methods: A total of 78 male Wistar rats were distributed in six experimental groups: negative control, positive control (1,2-Dimethylhydrazine—40 mg/Kg), and four groups fed with 10% NFRFP: NFRFP, pre-treatment protocol, simultaneous treatment, and post-treatment protocol. Results: The NFRFP was shown to be a good source of fibers and did not change biometric, biochemical, hematological, and inflammatory parameters, and did not induce signs of toxicity and genotoxicity/carcinogenicity. NFRFP exhibited a chemopreventive effect, in all protocols, with damage reduction (% DR) of 75% in the comet test. NFRFP reduced the incidence of aberrant crypt outbreaks by 49.36% in the post-treatment protocol. Conclusions: The results suggest the applicability of NFRFP in the human diet due to potential production at an industrial scale and easy technological application in different products, since it could be incorporated in food without altering or causing small changes in final product sensory characteristics.

“…Resorcinolic lipids, such as cytosporones and their precursors, can interact with the phospholipid bilayers [ 1 ], help in the formation of liposomes [ 2 ], promote protection against oxidative stress [ 3 ], and inhibit bacterial growth [ 1 , 2 ] and tumor cells [ 4 ]. In addition, the resorcinol lipid cytosporone B induced apoptosis in tumor cells by interacting with the nuclear orphan receptor Nur77 [ 2 , 4 ]. This fact led different research groups to dedicate themselves to describing the possible chemotherapeutic effects of precursors and cytosporones.…”

3-Heptylidene-4,6-Dimethoxy-3H-Isobenzofuran-1-One Is Genotoxic, Increases the Frequency of Cell Death, and Potentiates the Effects of Cyclophosphamide and Cisplatin

3-heptylidene-4,6-dimethoxy-3H-isobenzofuran-1-one (Phthalide 1) is the precursor of three resorcinol lipids that have been described as potential chemotherapeutic agents and capable of potentiating the effects of cyclophosphamide. In this study, we evaluated the genotoxic potential, cell-killing potential, and interactions with cyclophosphamide and cisplatin of phthalide 1. Twelve groups were created from 120 mice: Negative Control, cyclophosphamide (100 mg/kg), cisplatin (6 mg/kg), Phthalide 1 (5, 10 and 20 mg/kg), and associations of 1 with cyclophosphamide and 1 with cisplatin. The results demonstrate that 1 increases (p < 0.05) the frequency of chromosomal damage, liver and kidney cell death, and splenic phagocytosis. The association of 1 with cyclophosphamide and cisplatin demonstrated a chemopreventive effect and, therefore, a reduction (p < 0.05) in the frequency of chromosomal damage. However, cell death and splenic phagocytosis did not suffer significant variations. As a result of the above, 1 has potential chemotherapeutic application and may be a candidate for developing a new generation of chemotherapeutics. In addition, it has characteristics to be used as a chemotherapy adjuvant in association with cyclophosphamide and cisplatin since it increases the frequency of cell death induced by chemotherapy. We also reported that the chemopreventive effect of 1, in association with cyclophosphamide and cisplatin, can prevent adverse effects (induction of DNA damage in non-tumor cells) without interfering with the mode of action of chemotherapy drugs and, therefore, without reducing the induction of cell death.
