PPAR activation induces M1 macrophage polarization via cPLA?-COX-2 inhibition, activating ROS production against Leishmania mexicana.

ABSTRACT: Defence against Leishmania depends upon Th1 inflammatory response and, a major problem in susceptible models, is the turnoff of the leishmanicidal activity of macrophages with IL-10, IL-4, and COX-2 upregulation, as well as immunosuppressive PGE2, all together inhibiting the respiratory burst. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) activation is responsible for macrophages polarization on Leishmania susceptible models where microbicide functions are deactivated. In this paper, we demonstrated that, at least for L. mexicana, PPAR activation, mainly PPAR ? , induced macrophage activation through their polarization towards M1 profile with the increase of microbicide activity against intracellular pathogen L. mexicana. PPAR activation induced IL-10 downregulation, whereas the production of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF- ? , IL-1 ? , and IL-6 remained high. Moreover, PPAR agonists treatment induced the deactivation of cPLA2-COX-2-prostaglandins pathway together with an increase in TLR4 expression, all of whose criteria meet the M1 macrophage profile. Finally, parasite burden, in treated macrophages, was lower than that in infected nontreated macrophages, most probably associated with the increase of respiratory burst in these treated cells. Based on the above data, we conclude that PPAR agonists used in this work induces M1 macrophages polarization via inhibition of cPLA2 and the increase of aggressive microbicidal activity via reactive oxygen species (ROS) production.

Project description:BackgroundA growing body of research has shown that the phenotypic change in macrophages from M0 to M1 is essential for the start of the inflammatory process in septic acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Potential treatment targets might be identified with more knowledge of the molecular regulation of M1 macrophages in septic ARDS.MethodsA multi-microarray interrelated analysis of high-throughput experiments from ARDS patients and macrophage polarization was conducted to identify the hub genes associated with macrophage M1 polarization and septic ARDS. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Poly (I:C) were utilized to stimulate bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) for M1-polarized macrophage model construction. Knock down of the hub genes on BMDMs via shRNAs was used to screen the genes regulating macrophage M1 polarization in vitro. The cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) mouse model was constructed in knockout (KO) mice and wild-type (WT) mice to explore whether the screened genes regulate macrophage M1 polarization in septic ARDS in vivo. ChIP-seq and further experiments on BMDMs were performed to investigate the molecular mechanism.ResultsThe bioinformatics analysis of gene expression profiles from a clinical cohort of 26 ARDS patients and macrophage polarization found that the 5 hub genes (IFIH1, IRF1, STAT1, IFIT3, GBP1) may have a synergistic effect on macrophage M1 polarization in septic ARDS. Further in vivo investigations indicated that IFIH1, STAT1 and IRF1 contribute to macrophage M1 polarization. The histological evaluation and immunohistochemistry of the lungs from the IRF1-/- and WT mice indicated that knockout of IRF1 markedly alleviated CLP-induced lung injury and M1-polarized infiltration. Moreover, the molecular mechanism investigations indicated that knockdown of IFIH1 markedly promoted IRF1 translocation into the nucleus. Knockout of IRF1 significantly decreases the expression of STAT1. ChIP-seq and PCR further confirmed that IRF1, as a transcription factor of STAT1, binds to the promoter region of STAT1.ConclusionIRF1 was identified as the key molecule that regulates macrophage M1polarization and septic ARDS development in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, as the adaptor in response to infection mimics irritants, IFIH1 promotes IRF1 (transcription factor) translocation into the nucleus to initiate STAT1 transcription.

Project description:Abnormal bone metabolism and subsequence osteoporotic fractures are common complications of chronic inflammatory diseases. No effective treatment for these bone-related complications is available at present. The chronic inflammatory state in these diseases has been considered as a key factor of bone loss. Therefore, the combination of inflammation inhibition and bone loss suppression may be an important strategy for reducing bone damage associated with inflammatory diseases. Bushen Huoxue Decoction (BSHXD) is a traditional Chinese herbal compound that has demonstrated the ability to improve bone quality and increase bone density. However, the efficacy of BSHXD on inflammatory bone loss and its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether BSHXD inhibits inflammatory bone loss in mice and its potential molecular mechanisms. In the present study, the effect of BSHXD on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced M1 polarization of RAW264.7 macrophage and on local inflammatory bone loss model of mouse skull was determined. The results showed that after treating RAW264.7 cells with LPS for 24 h, the expression levels of IL-1β (39.42 ± 3.076 ng/L, p < 0.05), IL-6 (49.24 ± 1.766 mg/L, p < 0.05) and TNF-α (286.3 ± 27.12 ng/L, p < 0.05) were significantly increased. The addition of BSHXD decreased the expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α to 31.55 ± 1.296 ng/L, 37.94 ± 0.8869 mg/L, and 196.4 ± 25.25 ng/L, respectively (p < 0.05). The results of immunofluorescence staining, Western blotting (WB) and flow cytometry indicated that the proportion of M1 macrophages in RAW264.7 cells treated with BSHXD for 24 h was significantly lower than that in the LPS group (13.36% ± 0.9829% VS 24.80% ± 4.619%, p < 0.05). The evidence from in-vitro experiments showed that the immunomodulatory ability of BSHXD may be associated with the activation of AMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK) pathway in LPS-treated macrophages. In addition, the results of micro-CT, H&E staining, immunohistochemical staining and immunofluorescence staining of mouse skull further demonstrated that BSHXD treatment significantly alleviated LPS-induced local bone loss and inflammatory damage in mouse skull model. All results indicated that BSHXD significantly inhibited inflammatory factors release and M1 polarization of macrophage through AMPK signaling pathway. Therefore, BSHXD may be a promising drug for the treatment of inflammatory bone loss.
