Semen Cuscutae-Fructus Lycii attenuates tripterygium glycosides-induced spermatogenesis dysfunction by inhibiting oxidative stress-mediated ferroptosis via the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway
Background
Semen Cuscutae and Fructus Lycii (SC-FL) is known for its potential therapeutic effects on spermatogenesis dysfunction. However, the underlying mechanisms of SC-FL in alleviating spermatogenesis dysfunction is still being elucidated.
Purpose
This study aimed to explore the effects of SC-FL on spermatogenesis dysfunction and investigate the involved mechanisms, specifically focusing on the modulation of oxidative stress and ferroptosis.
Methods
A mouse model of spermatogenesis dysfunction was induced by tripterygium glycosides, followed by treatment with SC-FL. Assessment of testicular spermatogenic function in the mice was performed alongside lipidomics analysis to investigate the metabolic mechanisms of SC-FL. The effects on oxidative stress and ferroptosis-related markers were evaluated, the chemical constituents of SC-FL were identified using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and network pharmacology analysis was carried out. Additionally, an in vitro model of spermatogenesis dysfunction was established using triptolide-induced GC-1 cells, which were treated with Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) and flavonoids from Semen Cuscutae (FSC) to explore their impact on cell damage, oxidative stress-mediated damage, and ferroptosis.
Results
SC-FL improved the mouse model of spermatogenesis dysfunction by inhibiting oxidative stress-mediated ferroptosis. In vitro experiments demonstrated that LBP and FSC relieved GC-1 cell damage, with their mechanisms also associated with the inhibition of oxidative stress-mediated ferroptosis.
Conclusion
SC-FL alleviates spermatogenesis dysfunction in animal and cell models, potentially through the modulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway, which consequently inhibits oxidative stress-mediated ferroptosis in spermatogonial cells.
期刊介绍：
Phytomedicine is a therapy-oriented journal that publishes innovative studies on the efficacy, safety, quality, and mechanisms of action of specified plant extracts, phytopharmaceuticals, and their isolated constituents. This includes clinical, pharmacological, pharmacokinetic, and toxicological studies of herbal medicinal products, preparations, and purified compounds with defined and consistent quality, ensuring reproducible pharmacological activity. Founded in 1994, Phytomedicine aims to focus and stimulate research in this field and establish internationally accepted scientific standards for pharmacological studies, proof of clinical efficacy, and safety of phytomedicines.
