Inhibition of sPLA₂-IIA prevents LPS-induced neuroinflammation by suppressing ERK1/2-cPLA₂α pathway in mice cerebral cortex.

ABSTRACT: Neuroinflammation is involved in various central nervous system (CNS) disorders, including brain infections, ischemia, trauma, stroke, and degenerative CNS diseases. In the CNS inflammation, secretory phospholipase A₂-IIA (sPLA₂-IIA) acts as a mediator, resulting in the generation of the precursors of pro-inflammatory lipid mediators, such as prostaglandins (PGs) and leukotrienes (LTs). However, the role of sPLA₂-IIA in neuroinflammation is more complicated and remains unclear yet. In the present study, we investigated the effect of sPLA₂-IIA inhibition by specific inhibitor SC-215 on the inflammation in LPS-induced mice cerebral cortex and primary astrocytes. Our results showed that the inhibition of sPLA₂-IIA alleviated the release of PGE₂ by suppressing the activation of ERK1/2, cPLA₂α, COX-2 and mPGES-1. These findings demonstrated that sPLA₂-IIA showed the potential to regulate the neuroinflammation in vivo and in vitro, indicating that sPLA₂-IIA might be a novel target for the treatment of acute neuroinflammation.

Project description:Metabolic reprogramming is associated with NLRP3 inflammasome activation in activated macrophages, contributing to inflammatory responses. Tanshinone IIA (Tan-IIA) is a major constituent from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, which exhibits anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, we investigated the effects of Tan-IIA on inflammation in macrophages in focus on its regulation of metabolism and redox state. In lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-stimulated mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs), Tan-IIA (10 μM) significantly decreased succinate-boosted IL-1β and IL-6 production, accompanied by upregulation of IL-1RA and IL-10 release via inhibiting succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). Tan-IIA concentration dependently inhibited SDH activity with an estimated IC50 of 4.47 μM in LPS-activated BMDMs. Tan-IIA decreased succinate accumulation, suppressed mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production, thus preventing hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) induction. Consequently, Tan-IIA reduced glycolysis and protected the activity of Sirtuin2 (Sirt2), an NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase, by raising the ratio of NAD+/NADH in activated macrophages. The acetylation of α-tubulin was required for the assembly of NLRP3 inflammasome; Tan-IIA increased the binding of Sirt2 to α-tubulin, and thus reduced the acetylation of α-tubulin, thus impairing this process. Sirt2 knockdown or application of Sirt2 inhibitor AGK-2 (10 μM) neutralized the effects of Tan-IIA, suggesting that Tan-IIA inactivated NLRP3 inflammasome in a manner dependent on Sirt2 regulation. The anti-inflammatory effects of Tan-IIA were observed in mice subjected to LPS challenge: pre-administration of Tan-IIA (20 mg/kg, ip) significantly attenuated LPS-induced acute inflammatory responses, characterized by elevated IL-1β but reduced IL-10 levels in serum. The peritoneal macrophages isolated from the mice displayed similar metabolic regulation. In conclusion, Tan-IIA reduces HIF-1α induction via SDH inactivation, and preserves Sirt2 activity via downregulation of glycolysis, contributing to suppression of NLRP3 inflammasome activation. This study provides a new insight into the anti-inflammatory action of Tan-IIA from the respect of metabolic and redox regulation.
