Squalene Loaded Nanoparticles Effectively Protect Hepatic AML12 Cell Lines against Oxidative and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in a TXNDC5-Dependent Way

Abstract: Virgin olive oil, the main source of fat in the Mediterranean diet, contains a substantial amount of squalene which possesses natural antioxidant properties. Due to its highly hydrophobic nature, its bioavailability is reduced. In order to increase its delivery and potentiate its actions, squalene has been loaded into PLGA nanoparticles (NPs). The characterization of the resulting nanoparticles was assessed by electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential and high-performance liquid chromatogra… Show more

“…It was the first time that squalene was found in the seminal vesicles of drones. It has been shown that squalene plays a significant role in many aspects, including anti-oxidation, prevention of cell mutation, and liver protection (Bidooki et al, 2022;Shafaq et al, 2022;Zhang et al, 2022). Thus, we speculate that squalene maintains sperm activity in the hypoxic environment of the seminal vesicles, which was demonstrated Frontiers in Physiology frontiersin.org in vitro semen storage experiments.…”

“…In addition, several other key proteins related to protein folding, such as XBP1, PDIA4, TXNDC5, DNAJC5B, and DNAJC5, also showed varying degrees of changes. TXNDC5 not only participates in protein folding but is also an essential antioxidant molecule [ 61 , 62 ]. The results suggested that these molecular chaperone-related genes were activated and important in protecting organisms against environmental stress.…”

“…To enhance its delivery and improve its cellular uptake, squalene was encapsulated into PLGA nanoparticles. PLGA nanoparticles loaded with squalene protected mouse hepatocytes from oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum stresses by several molecular mechanisms [ 102 ]. However, the authors noticed some limitations in the PLGA encapsulation efficiency of squalene.…”
