The Hypoxia-Adenosine Link during Intestinal Inflammation.

ABSTRACT: Intestinal inflammation is a key element in inflammatory bowel disease and is related to a combination of factors, including genetics, mucosal barrier dysfunction, bacteria translocation, deleterious host-microbe interactions, and dysregulated immune responses. Over the past decade, it has been appreciated that these inflammatory lesions are associated with profound tissue hypoxia. Interestingly, an endogenous adaptive response under the control of hypoxia signaling is enhancement in adenosine signaling, which impacts these different endpoints, including promoting barrier function and encouraging anti-inflammatory activity. In this review, we discuss the hypoxia-adenosine link in inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury, and colon cancer. In addition, we provide a summary of clinical implications of hypoxia and adenosine signaling in intestinal inflammation and disease.

The hypoxia-adenosine link during inflammation.

Project description:Hypoxic tissue conditions occur during a number of inflammatory diseases and are associated with the breakdown of barriers and induction of proinflammatory responses. At the same time, hypoxia is also known to induce several adaptive and tissue-protective pathways that dampen inflammation and protect tissue integrity. Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) that are stabilized during inflammatory or hypoxic conditions are at the center of mediating these responses. In the past decade, several genes regulating extracellular adenosine metabolism and signaling have been identified as being direct targets of HIFs. Here, we discuss the relationship between inflammation, hypoxia, and adenosine and that HIF-driven adenosine metabolism and signaling is essential in providing tissue protection during inflammatory conditions, including myocardial injury, inflammatory bowel disease, and acute lung injury. We also discuss how the hypoxia-adenosine link can be targeted therapeutically in patients as a future treatment approach for inflammatory diseases.

The Hypoxia-Adenosine Link during Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.

Project description:Despite increasing availability and more successful interventional approaches to restore coronary reperfusion, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury is a substantial cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. During myocardial ischemia, the myocardium becomes profoundly hypoxic, thus causing stabilization of hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIF). Stabilization of HIF leads to a transcriptional program that promotes adaptation to hypoxia and cellular survival. Transcriptional consequences of HIF stabilization include increases in extracellular production and signaling effects of adenosine. Extracellular adenosine functions as a signaling molecule via the activation of adenosine receptors. Several studies implicated adenosine signaling in cardioprotection, particularly through the activation of the Adora2a and Adora2b receptors. Adenosine receptor activation can lead to metabolic adaptation to enhance ischemia tolerance or dampen myocardial reperfusion injury via signaling events on immune cells. Many studies highlight that clinical strategies to target the hypoxia-adenosine link could be considered for clinical trials. This could be achieved by using pharmacologic HIF activators or by directly enhancing extracellular adenosine production or signaling as a therapy for patients with acute myocardial infarction, or undergoing cardiac surgery.

Hypoxia-inducible factors: a central link between inflammation and cancer.

Project description:The tumor immune response is in a dynamic balance between antitumor mechanisms, which serve to decrease cancer growth, and the protumor inflammatory response, which increases immune tolerance, cell survival, and proliferation. Hypoxia and expression of HIF-1? and HIF-2? are characteristic features of all solid tumors. HIF signaling serves as a major adaptive mechanism in tumor growth in a hypoxic microenvironment. HIFs represent a critical signaling node in the switch to protumorigenic inflammatory responses through recruitment of protumor immune cells and altered immune cell effector functions to suppress antitumor immune responses and promote tumor growth through direct growth-promoting cytokine production, angiogenesis, and ROS production. Modulating HIF function will be an important mechanism to dampen the tumor-promoting inflammatory response and inhibit cancer growth.

Adenosine at the Interphase of Hypoxia and Inflammation in Lung Injury.

Project description:Hypoxia and inflammation often coincide in pathogenic conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and chronic lung diseases, which are significant contributors to morbidity and mortality for the general population. For example, the recent global outbreak of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has placed viral infection-induced ARDS under the spotlight. Moreover, chronic lung disease ranks the third leading cause of death in the United States. Hypoxia signaling plays a diverse role in both acute and chronic lung inflammation, which could partially be explained by the divergent function of downstream target pathways such as adenosine signaling. Particularly, hypoxia signaling activates adenosine signaling to inhibit the inflammatory response in ARDS, while in chronic lung diseases, it promotes inflammation and tissue injury. In this review, we discuss the role of adenosine at the interphase of hypoxia and inflammation in ARDS and chronic lung diseases, as well as the current strategy for therapeutic targeting of the adenosine signaling pathway.

Short-Term Hypoxia Dampens Inflammation in vivo via Enhanced Adenosine Release and Adenosine 2B Receptor Stimulation.

Project description:Hypoxia and inflammation are closely intertwined phenomena. Critically ill patients often suffer from systemic inflammatory conditions and concurrently experience short-lived hypoxia. We evaluated the effects of short-term hypoxia on systemic inflammation, and show that it potently attenuates pro-inflammatory cytokine responses during murine endotoxemia. These effects are independent of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), but involve augmented adenosine levels, in turn resulting in an adenosine 2B receptor-mediated post-transcriptional increase of interleukin (IL)-10 production. We translated our findings to humans using the experimental endotoxemia model, where short-term hypoxia resulted in enhanced plasma concentrations of adenosine, augmentation of endotoxin-induced circulating IL-10 levels, and concurrent attenuation of the pro-inflammatory cytokine response. Again, HIFs were shown not to be involved. Taken together, we demonstrate that short-term hypoxia dampens the systemic pro-inflammatory cytokine response through enhanced purinergic signaling in mice and men. These effects may contribute to outcome and provide leads for immunomodulatory treatment strategies for critically ill patients.

Rho-A prenylation and signaling link epithelial homeostasis to intestinal inflammation.

Project description:Although defects in intestinal barrier function are a key pathogenic factor in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), the molecular pathways driving disease-specific alterations of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) are largely unknown. Here, we addressed this issue by characterizing the transcriptome of IECs from IBD patients using a genome-wide approach. We observed disease-specific alterations in IECs with markedly impaired Rho-A signaling in active IBD patients. Localization of epithelial Rho-A was shifted to the cytosol in IBDs, and inflammation was associated with suppressed Rho-A activation due to reduced expression of the Rho-A prenylation enzyme geranylgeranyltransferase-I (GGTase-I). Functionally, we found that mice with conditional loss of Rhoa or the gene encoding GGTase-I, Pggt1b, in IECs exhibit spontaneous chronic intestinal inflammation with accumulation of granulocytes and CD4+ T cells. This phenotype was associated with cytoskeleton rearrangement and aberrant cell shedding, ultimately leading to loss of epithelial integrity and subsequent inflammation. These findings uncover deficient prenylation of Rho-A as a key player in the pathogenesis of IBDs. As therapeutic triggering of Rho-A signaling suppressed intestinal inflammation in mice with GGTase-I-deficient IECs, our findings suggest new avenues for treatment of epithelial injury and mucosal inflammation in IBD patients.

Altered Intestinal Permeability Biomarkers in Schizophrenia: A Possible Link with Subclinical Inflammation.

Project description:Background and purposeEmerging studies have shown that gut-derived endotoxins might play a role in intestinal and systemic inflammation. Although the significance of intestinal permeability in modulating the pathogenesis of Schizophrenia (SCZ) is recognized, not much data on the specific role of intestinal permeability biomarkers, viz., zonulin, lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP), and intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) in SCZ is available. Therefore, we measured the plasma levels of zonulin, LBP, and IAP and its correlation with neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR); a marker of systemic inflammation in patients with SCZ.MethodsWe recruited 60 individuals, patients with SCZ (n = 40) and healthy controls (n = 20), from a large tertiary neuropsychiatry center. Plasma levels of zonulin, IAP, and LBP were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsPlasma levels of both LBP and zonulin were significantly increased (P <0.05), whereas the IAP levels (P <0.05) were significantly decreased in patients with SCZ compared to healthy controls. Pearson correlation analysis revealed that zonulin and LBP had a significant positive correlation with NLR, and IAP negatively correlated with NLR. Individuals with SCZ had higher independent odds of zonulin [odds ratio (OR): 10.32, 95% CI: 1.85-57.12], LBP [OR: 1.039, 95% CI: 1.02-1.07], and IAP [OR: 0.643, 95% CI: 0.471-0.879], even after adjusting for potential confounders.ConclusionOur study demonstrates an association of zonulin, LBP, and IAP in Asian Indian SCZ patients and correlates with NLR. Our results indicate that low-grade inflammation induced by metabolic endotoxemia might be implicated in the pathoetiology of SCZ.

Obesity during pregnancy results in maternal intestinal inflammation, placental hypoxia, and alters fetal glucose metabolism at mid-gestation.

Project description:We investigated whether diet-induced changes in the maternal intestinal microbiota were associated with changes in bacterial metabolites and their receptors, intestinal inflammation, and placental inflammation at mid-gestation (E14.5) in female mice fed a control (17% kcal fat, n?=?7) or a high-fat diet (HFD 60% kcal fat, n?=?9; ad libitum) before and during pregnancy. Maternal diet-induced obesity (mDIO) resulted in a reduction in maternal fecal short-chain fatty acid producing Lachnospiraceae, lower cecal butyrate, intestinal antimicrobial peptide levels, and intestinal SCFA receptor Ffar3, Ffar2 and Hcar2 transcript levels. mDIO increased maternal intestinal pro-inflammatory NF?B activity, colonic CD3+ T cell number, and placental inflammation. Maternal obesity was associated with placental hypoxia, increased angiogenesis, and increased transcript levels of glucose and amino acid transporters. Maternal and fetal markers of gluconeogenic capacity were decreased in pregnancies complicated by obesity. We show that mDIO impairs bacterial metabolite signaling pathways in the mother at mid-gestation, which was associated with significant structural changes in placental blood vessels, likely as a result of placental hypoxia. It is likely that maternal intestinal changes contribute to adverse maternal and placental adaptations that, via alterations in fetal hepatic glucose handling, may impart increased risk of metabolic dysfunction in offspring.

Hypoxia ameliorates intestinal inflammation through NLRP3/mTOR downregulation and autophagy activation.

Project description:Hypoxia regulates autophagy and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain receptor, pyrin domain containing (NLRP)3, two innate immune mechanisms linked by mutual regulation and associated to IBD. Here we show that hypoxia ameliorates inflammation during the development of colitis by modulating autophagy and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/NLRP3 pathway. Hypoxia significantly reduces tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin (IL)-6 and NLRP3 expression, and increases the turnover of the autophagy protein p62 in colon biopsies of Crohn's disease patients, and in samples from dextran sulfate sodium-treated mice and Il-10 -/- mice. In vitro, NF-κB signaling and NLRP3 expression are reduced through hypoxia-induced autophagy. We also identify NLRP3 as a novel binding partner of mTOR. Dimethyloxalylglycine-mediated hydroxylase inhibition ameliorates colitis in mice, downregulates NLRP3 and promotes autophagy. We suggest that hypoxia counteracts inflammation through the downregulation of the binding of mTOR and NLRP3 and activation of autophagy.Hypoxia and HIF-1α activation are protective in mouse models of colitis, and the latter regulates autophagy. Here Cosin-Roger et al. show that hypoxia ameliorates intestinal inflammation in Crohn's patients and murine colitis models by inhibiting mTOR/NLRP3 pathway and promoting autophagy.

Adenosine signaling mediates SUMO-1 modification of IkappaBalpha during hypoxia and reoxygenation.

Project description:Small ubiquitin-like modifier 1 (SUMO-1) modification of IkappaBalpha has been described to actively participate in NFkappaB regulation. Following proteosomal degradation of IkappaBalpha, an auto-regulatory loop consisting of transcriptional activation of IkappaBalpha gene and SUMO-1 modification of newly synthesized IkappaBalpha proceeds. The SUMOylated IkappaBalpha form is resistant to signal-induced degradation, consequently halting NFkappaB activation. We describe a mechanistic model by which adenosine (Ado) signaling results in significant accumulation of SUMO-1 modified IkappaBalpha with subsequent attenuation of NFkappaB activation. Using models of hypoxia followed by reoxygenation (H/R), we have documented an H/R cycle-dependent increase in extracellular Ado correlating with increases in the cytoplasmic pool of IkappaBalpha/SUMO-1. We demonstrate a dose-dependent increase in IkappaBalpha/SUMO in cells treated with the general Ado receptor agonist NECA and abolished by Ado receptor antagonists. Experiments in cells exposed to cycles of H/R followed by hypoxia demonstrated differential patterns of SUMOylation and phosphorylation of IkappaBalpha, greatly impacting its proteosomal degradation by the 26 S proteasome. Assays targeting knockdown and overexpression of SUMO-1 demonstrated significant regulation of NFkappaB activation and NFkappaB-mediated gene transcription (interleukin-6). These results were confirmed in vivo using wild type and cd73 null mouse lung tissue. In summary, we present an endogenous mechanism by which cells and tissues acquire anti-inflammatory properties by recruiting a nondegradable form of IkappaBalpha, a major control point for NFkappaB activation via Ado signaling.
