Plasma glutamate-modulated interaction of A2AR and mGluR5 on BMDCs aggravates traumatic brain injury-induced acute lung injury.

ABSTRACT: The bone marrow-derived cell (BMDC)-associated inflammatory response plays a key role in the development of acute lung injury (ALI). Activation of adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) is generally considered to be antiinflammatory, inhibiting BMDC activities to protect against ALI. However, in the present study, we found that in a mouse model of neurogenic ALI induced by severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), BMDC A2AR exerted a proinflammatory effect, aggravating lung damage. This is in contrast to the antiinflammatory effect observed in the mouse oleic acid-induced ALI model (a nonneurogenic ALI model.) Moreover, the A2AR agonist CGS21680 aggravated, whereas the antagonist ZM241385 attenuated, the severe TBI-induced lung inflammatory damage in mice. Further investigation of white blood cells isolated from patients or mouse TBI models and of cultured human or mouse neutrophils demonstrated that elevated plasma glutamate after severe TBI induced interaction between A2AR and the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) to increase phospholipase C-protein kinase C signaling, which mediated the proinflammatory effect of A2AR. These results are in striking contrast to the well-known antiinflammatory and protective role of A2AR in nonneurogenic ALI and indicate different therapeutic strategies should be used for nonneurogenic and neurogenic ALI treatment when targeting A2AR.

Project description:IntroductionTraumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex pathophysiological process, and increasing attention has been paid to the important role of post-synaptic density (PSD) proteins, such as glutamate receptors. Our previous study showed that a PSD protein Arc/Arg3.1 (Arc) regulates endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and neuronal necroptosis in traumatic injury in vitro.AimIn this study, we investigated the expression, regulation and biological function of Arc in both in vivo and in vitro experimental TBI models.ResultsTraumatic neuronal injury (TNI) induced a temporal upregulation of Arc in cortical neurons, while TBI resulted in sustained increase in Arc expression up to 24 h in rats. The increased expression of Arc was mediated by the activity of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5), but not dependent on the intracellular calcium (Ca2+) release. By using inhibitors and antagonists, we found that TNI regulates Arc expression via Gq protein and protein turnover. In addition, overexpression of Arc protects against TBI-induced neuronal injury and motor dysfunction both in vivo and in vitro, whereas the long-term cognitive function was not altered. To determine the role of Arc in mGluR5-induced protection, lentivirus-mediated short hairpin RNA (shRNA) transfection was performed to knockdown Arc expression. The mGluR5 agonist (RS)-2-chloro-5-hydroxyphenylglycine (CHPG)-induced protection against TBI was partially prevented by Arc knockdown. Furthermore, the CHPG-induced attenuation of Ca2+ influx after TNI was dependent on Arc activation and followed regulation of AMPAR subunits. The results of Co-IP and Ca2+ imaging showed that the Arc-Homer1 interaction contributes to the CHPG-induced regulation of intracellular Ca2+ release.ConclusionIn summary, the present data indicate that the mGluR5-mediated Arc activation is a protective mechanism that attenuates neurotoxicity following TBI through the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ hemostasis. The AMPAR-associated Ca2+ influx and ER Ca2+ release induced by Homer1-IP3R pathway might be involved in this protection.

Project description:BackgroundThe long-term functional recovery of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is hampered by pathological events, such as parenchymal neuroinflammation, neuronal death, and white matter injury. Krüppel-like transcription factor 11 (KLF 11) belongs to the zinc finger family of transcription factors and actively participates in various pathophysiological processes in neurological disorders. Up to now, the role and molecular mechanisms of KLF11 in regulating the pathogenesis of brain trauma is poorly understood.MethodsKLF11 knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) mice were subjected to experimental TBI, and sensorimotor and cognitive functions were evaluated by rotarod, adhesive tape removal, foot fault, water maze, and passive avoidance tests. Brain tissue loss/neuronal death was examined by MAP2 and NeuN immunostaining, and Cresyl violet staining. White matter injury was assessed by Luxol fast blue staining, and also MBP/SMI32 and Caspr/Nav1.6 immunostaining. Activation of cerebral glial cells and infiltration of blood-borne immune cells were detected by GFAP, Iba-1/CD16/32, Iba-1/CD206, Ly-6B, and F4/80 immunostaining. Brian parenchymal inflammatory cytokines were measured with inflammatory array kits.ResultsGenetic deletion of KLF11 worsened brain trauma-induced sensorimotor and cognitive deficits, brain tissue loss and neuronal death, and white matter injury in mice. KLF11 genetic deficiency in mice also accelerated post-trauma astrocytic activation, promoted microglial polarization to a pro-inflammatory phenotype, and increased the infiltration of peripheral neutrophils and macrophages into the brain parenchyma. Mechanistically, loss-of-KLF11 function was found to directly increase the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the brains of TBI mice.ConclusionKLF11 acts as a novel protective factor in TBI. KLF11 genetic deficiency in mice aggravated the neuroinflammatory responses, grey and white matter injury, and impaired long-term sensorimotor and cognitive recovery. Elucidating the functional importance of KLF11 in TBI may lead us to discover novel pharmacological targets for the development of effective therapies against brain trauma.
