AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) / peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1β (PGC-1β) / nuclear respiratory factor-1 (NRF-1) axis in mitochondria of hepatocytes in fish (Megalobrama amblycephala). [1]

| ln Vivo |
Dietary supplementation with benfotiamine at 1.425 mg/kg for 12 weeks improved the growth performance (increased final weight, weight gain rate, specific growth rate) of juvenile blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) fed a high-carbohydrate (HC, 43% carbohydrate) diet compared to fish fed the HC diet alone.
Dietary benfotiamine supplementation at 1.425 mg/kg ameliorated the metabolic disturbances induced by the HC diet. It significantly increased plasma insulin levels and tissue (liver, muscle, adipose) glycogen and lipid contents, while it significantly decreased plasma glucose, glycated serum protein (GSP), and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) levels in the fish. Benfotiamine supplementation (1.425 mg/kg) increased the phosphorylated AMPKα to total AMPKα protein ratio and the protein expression of PGC-1β in the fish liver. Benfotiamine supplementation (1.425 mg/kg) upregulated the hepatic mRNA transcriptions of genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and fusion, including AMPKα-2, PGC-1β, NRF-1, mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM), mitofusin-1 (Mfn-1), and optic atrophy-1 (Opa-1). Conversely, it downregulated the transcriptions of genes involved in mitochondrial fission, such as dynamin-related protein-1 (Drp-1), fission-1 (Fis-1), and mitochondrial fission factor (Mff). Benfotiamine supplementation (1.425 mg/kg) increased the activities of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes I, II, III, IV, and V in the fish liver. Benfotiamine supplementation (1.425 mg/kg) increased the hepatic mRNA transcriptions of mitochondrial function-related genes, including cytochrome b (CYT-b), cytochrome c oxidase-2 (COX-2), and ATP synthase-6 (ATP-6). The optimal dietary dose for improving growth and mitochondrial function in this fish model under HC diet conditions was 1.425 mg/kg. Higher doses (2.85 and 5.7 mg/kg) did not provide additional benefits and even impaired growth at the highest dose. [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex activities were measured in isolated liver mitochondria. Briefly, liver samples were homogenized in a cold extraction medium containing KH2PO4, sucrose, and EDTA. The homogenate was centrifuged at low speed, and the supernatant was retained. The mitochondrial fraction was obtained by further centrifugation. The sediment (mitochondrial pellet) was washed, resuspended, and stored. Mitochondrial protein concentration was determined. The activities of complexes I, II, III, IV, and V were measured using established spectrophotometric or other biochemical methods. Complex I-III activity was measured according to a referenced method. Complex IV and V activities were analyzed using another referenced method. The activities were expressed as nanomoles per minute per milligram of protein. [1]

| Animal Protocol |
Three hundred sixty juvenile blunt snout bream (average initial weight: 45.25 ± 0.34 g) were randomly distributed into 24 tanks (15 fish per tank). The fish were fed one of six experimental diets for 12 weeks. The diets included: a control diet (30% carbohydrate, C), a high-carbohydrate diet (43% carbohydrate, HC), and the HC diet supplemented with four different levels of benfotiamine: 0.7125 (HCB1), 1.425 (HCB2), 2.85 (HCB3), and 5.7 (HCB4) mg per kg of diet. The benfotiamine was mixed into the diet during formulation. Fish were fed to visual satiation three times daily (07:00, 12:00, and 17:00). Water temperature was maintained at 27.4 ± 0.6°C, with a photoperiod of 12h light:12h dark, and dissolved oxygen above 5.0 mg/L. After the 12-week feeding period, fish were fasted for 24 hours, anesthetized, and blood and tissues (liver, muscle, adipose) were collected for analysis. [1]

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Adding 5.7 mg/kg of fenprophane (the highest tested dose) to the feed significantly reduced the final body weight, weight gain rate, and specific growth rate of the fish, suggesting that this high dose may have an inhibitory effect on growth under the experimental conditions compared to the optimal dose group. No deaths were observed in any of the 12-week trials. The study did not provide specific toxicity data, such as LD50, organ histopathology, or plasma biochemical markers of organ damage. [1]

| Additional Infomation |
Benfotiamine is a thioester, a synthetic analog of thiamine, obtained through acylation and O-phosphorylation of the thiazole ring. It has functions as an immune adjuvant, nutritional supplement, antioxidant, provitamin B1, and protectant. It is an aminopyrimidine, belonging to the formamide class, organophosphates, and thioesters. Its function is related to thiamine (1+). Benfotiamine has been investigated for the treatment and prevention of diabetic nephropathy and type 2 diabetes. See also: Benfotiamine (note moved to). Benfotiamine can be used as a dietary supplement to treat diabetic complications. It can improve glucose homeostasis by blocking three major pathways associated with hyperglycemic damage: the hexosamine pathway, the advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation pathway, and the diacylglycerol (DAG)-protein kinase C pathway. Benfotiamine can enhance the activity of dehydrogenase complexes by increasing intracellular thiamine diphosphate (TPP) levels, thereby increasing glucose oxidation in mitochondria.
Benzothiamethoxam can alleviate stress caused by excessive production of superoxide anions in the mitochondrial electron transport chain. In this fish study, Benzothiamethoxam improved mitochondrial biosynthesis and function in the liver by activating the AMPK/PGC-1β/NRF-1 axis, upregulating mitochondrial fusion genes, enhancing the activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes, and inhibiting mitochondrial fission.
