Paneth cell-derived interleukin-17A causes multiorgan dysfunction after hepatic ischemia and reperfusion injury.

ABSTRACT: Hepatic ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury is a major clinical problem that leads to frequent extrahepatic complications including intestinal dysfunction and acute kidney injury (AKI). In this study we aimed to determine the mechanisms of hepatic IR-induced extrahepatic organ dysfunction. Mice subjected to 60 minutes of hepatic IR not only developed severe hepatic injury but also developed significant AKI and small intestinal injury. Hepatic IR induced small intestinal Paneth cell degranulation and increased interleukin-17A (IL-17A) levels in portal vein plasma and small intestine. We also detected increased levels of IL-17A messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein in Paneth cells after hepatic IR with laser capture dissection. IL-17A-neutralizing antibody treatment or genetic deletion of either IL-17A or IL-17A receptors significantly protected against hepatic IR-induced acute liver, kidney, and intestinal injury. Leukocyte IL-17A does not contribute to organ injury, as infusion of wildtype splenocytes failed to exacerbate liver and kidney injury in IL-17A-deficient mice after hepatic IR. Depletion of Paneth cell numbers by pharmacological (with dithizone) or genetic intervention (SOX9 flox/flox Villin cre+/- mice) significantly attenuated intestinal, hepatic, and renal injury following liver IR. Finally, depletion of Paneth cell numbers significantly decreased small intestinal IL-17A release and plasma IL-17A levels after liver IR.Taken together, the results show that Paneth cell-derived IL-17A plays a critical role in hepatic IR injury and extrahepatic organ dysfunction. Modulation of Paneth cell dysregulation may have therapeutic implications by reducing systemic complications arising from hepatic IR.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study examined volatile anesthetic-mediated protection against intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI).BackgroundIntestinal IRI is a devastating complication in the perioperative period leading to systemic inflammation and multiorgan dysfunction. Volatile anesthetics, including isoflurane, have anti-inflammatory effects. We aimed to determine whether isoflurane, given after intestinal ischemia, protects against intestinal IRI and the mechanisms involved in this protection.Methods: After IACUC approval, mice were anesthetized with pentobarbital and subjected to 30 minutes of superior mesenteric artery ischemia, followed by 4 hours of equianesthetic doses of pentobarbital or isoflurane. Five hours after reperfusion, small intestine tissues were analyzed for morphological injury, apoptosis, neutrophil infiltration, proinflammatory mRNAs, and TGF-(Transforming Growth Factor-)β1 levels. We also assessed hepatic and renal injury after intestinal IRI.ResultsIntestinal IRI with pentobarbital led to significant small intestinal dysfunction with increased mucosal injury, TUNEL (transferase biotin-dUTP nick end-labeling)-positive cells, neutrophil infiltration, and proinflammatory mRNAs as well as elevated plasma alanine aminotransferase and creatinine levels. Isoflurane exposure after IRI led to significant attenuation of intestinal, hepatic, and renal injuries. Furthermore, the protective effects of isoflurane were abolished by treatment with a TGF-β1 neutralizing antibody before induction of IRI. Finally, isoflurane exposure led to increased TGF-β1 levels in intestinal epithelial cells and in plasma.ConclusionsOur findings demonstrate that isoflurane post-conditioning protects against small intestinal injury and hepatic and renal dysfunction after severe intestinal IRI via induction of intestinal epithelial TGF-β1. Our findings support therapeutic applications of volatile anesthetics during the intraoperative and postoperative periods and imply an important role of TGF-β1 signaling in modulating multiorgan injury.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS:Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) is a major mechanism of liver injury following hepatic surgery or transplantation. Despite numerous reports on the role of oxidative/nitrosative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in hepatic I/R injury, the proteins that are oxidatively modified during I/R damage are poorly characterized. This study was aimed at investigating the oxidatively modified proteins underlying the mechanism for mitochondrial dysfunction in hepatic I/R injury. We also studied the effects of a superoxide dismutase mimetic/peroxynitrite scavenger metalloporphyrin (MnTMPyP) on oxidatively modified proteins and their functions. METHODS:The oxidized and/or S-nitrosylated mitochondrial proteins from I/R-injured mouse livers with or without MnTMPyP pretreatment were labeled with biotin-N-maleimide, purified with streptavidin-agarose, and resolved by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The identities of the oxidatively modified proteins were determined using mass spectrometric analysis. Liver histopathology, serum transaminase levels, nitrosative stress markers, and activities of oxidatively modified mitochondrial proteins were measured. RESULTS:Comparative 2-dimensional gel analysis revealed markedly increased numbers of oxidized and S-nitrosylated mitochondrial proteins following hepatic I/R injury. Many key mitochondrial enzymes involved in cellular defense, fat metabolism, energy supply, and chaperones were identified as being oxidatively modified proteins. Pretreatment with MnTMPyP attenuated the I/R-induced increased serum transaminase levels, histologic damage, increased inducible nitric oxide synthase expression, and S-nitrosylation and/or nitration of various key mitochondrial proteins. MnTMPyP pretreatment also restored I/R-induced suppressed activities of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase, 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolases, and adenosine triphosphate synthase. CONCLUSIONS:These results suggest that increased nitrosative stress is critically important in promoting S-nitrosylation and nitration of various mitochondrial proteins, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction with decreased energy supply and increased hepatic injury.
