4-Octyl itaconate inhibits poly(I:C)-induced interferon-β secretion in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages partially by activating Nrf2.

ABSTRACT: Viruses have become a major threat to human health. Interferon-β (IFN-β) has a key role in the antivirus process, as it can increase the expression of antivirus-associated genes. Itaconate and its derivatives can regulate the immune response, secretion of inflammatory factors, and pyroptosis of macrophages. The effect of itaconate on IFN-β secretion of double-stranded RNA-induced macrophages are not well known. A derivative of itaconate, 4-octoyl itaconate (4-OI), was used to treat mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) induced with 100 μg/mL poly(I:C). The IFN-β concentration was detected through ELISA, and IFN-β mRNA expression was detected through quantitative PCR. High-throughput transcriptome sequencing was used to analyze changes in the BMDM transcriptome after 4-OI treatment. The Nrf2 expression was knocked down with siRNA.4-OI inhibited poly(I:C)-induced IFN-β secretion and mRNA expression in BMDM. Results of transcriptome sequencing revealed that 4-OI downregulated 1047 genes and upregulated 822 genes. GO and KEGG enrichment of differently expressed genes revealed that many downregulated genes were related to the anti-virus process, whereas many upregulated genes were related to metabolism. The Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 and Nrf2 siRNA could partially reverse the inhibitory effect of 4-OI. In conclusion, 4-octyl itaconate could inhibit the poly(I:C)-induced interferon-β secretion in BMDM partially by regulating Nrf2.

Project description:Septic acute kidney injury (S-AKI) is the leading form of acute kidney failure among hospitalized patients, and the inflammatory response is involved in this process. 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI) is a multi-target itaconate derivative with potent anti-inflammatory action. However, it remains elusive whether and how 4-OI contributes to the regulation of S-AKI. We employed a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced AKI murine model and explored the potential renoprotective effect of 4-OI in vivo. In vitro experiments, BUMPT cells, a murine renal tubular cell line, were conducted to examine the effects of 4-OI on inflammation, oxidative stress, and mitophagy. Moreover, STAT3 plasmid was transfected in BUMPT cells to investigate the role of STAT3 signaling in the 4-OI-administrated state. We demonstrate that 4-OI protects against S-AKI through suppressing inflammation and oxidative stress and enhancing mitophagy. 4-OI significantly reduced the levels of Scr, BUN, Ngal as well as the tubular injury in LPS-induced AKI mice. 4-OI restrained inflammation by reducing macrophage infiltration and suppressing the expression of IL-1β and NLRP3 in the septic kidney. 4-OI also reduced ROS levels, as well as cleaved caspase-3 and boosted antioxidants such as HO-1, and NQO1 in mice. In addition, the 4-OI treatment significantly promoted mitophagy. Mechanistically, 4-OI activated Nrf2 signaling and suppressed phosphorylated STAT3 in vivo and vitro. Molecular docking revealed the binding affinity of 4-OI towards STAT3. ML385, a specific Nrf2 inhibitor, partially repressed the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects of 4-OI and partially restricted the mitophagy induced by 4-OI in vivo and in vitro. Transfected with STAT3 plasmid partially suppressed mitophagy and the anti-inflammatory effect provoked by 4-OI in vitro. These data suggest that 4-OI ameliorates LPS-induced AKI by suppressing inflammation and oxidative stress and enhancing mitophagy through the overactivation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway, and inactivation of STAT3. Our study identifies 4-OI as a promising pharmacologic for S-AKI.
