Resveratrol attenuates high glucose-induced cardiomyocytes injury via interfering ROS-MAPK-NF-κB signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Cardiomyocyte inflammatory injury is likely required for cardiomyocytes death under hyperglycemia condition. Resveratrol (Res) is famous for its anti-inflammatory effect. However, there are few reports about the anti-inflammatory effect of Res induced by high glucose in cardiomyocytes. The aim of the present study is to investigate the inflammatory effect of high glucose and the anti-inflammatory effect of Res induced by high glucose in cardiomyocytes. Primary cardiomyocytes were isolated from new born SD rats and high glucose (30 mmol/L) was used as a stimulant for cell injury. Cell viability was assayed by CCK-8 method; protein expression was identified by Western blot or ELISA, respectively. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was observed under a fluorescence microscope. The results indicated that High glucose (30 mmol/L) significantly decreased the cell viability of cardiomyocytes after co-cultivated for 12 h and had a time-dependent manner, and increased IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α secretion in cardiomyocytes. The injury effect of high glucose involved in ROS-MAPK-NF-κB signaling pathway. For the reason that antioxidant NAC, ERK1/2, p38 MAPK and NF-κB specific pathway inhibitors was able to abolish the secretion of this inflammatory factors; pretreatment with antioxidant NAC significantly decreased the level of phosphorylated ERK1/2, p38 MAPK and nuclear NF-κB; pretreatment of PD98059 and SB203580 can significantly decrease NF-κB level in nuclei. After treatment with Res 20 μmol/L for 12 h, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α secretion were markedly decreased, and the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38 MAPK and NF-κB level were also decreased. All the results showed that Res attenuates high glucose-induced inflammatory injury through ROS-ERK1/2/p38-NF-κB signaling pathway in cardiomyocytes.

Project description:Background: Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common respiratory disease characterized by persistent hypoxemia and an uncontrolled inflammatory response. Valsartan, an angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist, is clinically used to treat hypertension and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects on gefitinib-induced pneumonia in rats. However, the potential therapeutic effects of valsartan on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI remain unclear. This study investigated the protective role of valsartan in LPS-induced ALI and its underlying mechanisms. Methods: LPS-treated BEAS-2B cells and ALI mouse model were established. BEAS-2B cells were treated with LPS (10 μg/mL) for 24h, with or without valsartan (20, 40, and 80 µM). For ALI mouse models, LPS (5 mg/kg) was administered through intratracheal injection to treat the mice for 24h, and valsartan (10 or 30 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally twice 2 h before and 12 h after the LPS injection. Pulmonary functional parameters were examined by an EMKA pulmonary system. Hematoxylin and eosin staining, flow cytometry, CCK-8 assay, qRT-PCR, ELISA, immunofluorescence, Western blotting, and related commercial kits were used to assess the pathological damage to the lungs, neutrophil recruitment in the lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), cell viability, inflammation, oxidative activity, and mucus production, respectively. Potential mechanisms were further explored using network pharmacology and Western blotting. Results: Valsartan rescued LPS-reduced cell viability of BEAS-2B cells, improved the pulmonary function, ameliorated pathological lung injury in mice with ALI, ameliorated LPS-induced neutrophil recruitment in BALF and lung tissue of mice, attenuated oxidative stress by increasing the level of SOD and decreasing that of MDA and GSSG, inhibited LPS-induced MUC5AC overproduction, decreased the LPS-induced increase in expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines including TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, CXCL-1 and CXCL-2, and restored the expression of anti-inflammatory IL-10. Mechanistic studies showed that valsartan inhibits LPS-induced phosphorylation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κΒ) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) including P38, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in both LPS-treated cells and the mouse model of ALI. Conclusion: Valsartan protects against LPS-induced ALI by attenuating oxidative stress, reducing MUC5AC production, and attenuating the inflammatory response that may involve MAPK and NF-κΒ pathways.

Project description:BackgroundAnti-nerve growth factor (NGF) monoclonal antibodies (anti-NGF mAbs) have been reported to significantly attenuate pain, but the mechanism involved has not been fully elucidated, and the serious adverse events associated with mAbs seriously limit their clinical use. This study further investigated the mechanism by which peripheral NGF is involved in neuropathic pain and found safe, natural compounds that target NGF to attenuate neuropathic pain.MethodsNociception was assessed by the Von Frey hair and Hargreaves' methods. Western-blotting, qPCR and immunofluorescence were used to detect the cell signaling pathway. RAW264.7 macrophages and RSC96 Schwann cells were cultured for in vitro evaluation.ResultsIntraplantar administration of anti-NGF mAbs suppressed the expression of phosphorylated transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and sciatic nerve. Intraplantar administration of a TAK1 inhibitor attenuated CCI-induced neuropathic pain and suppressed the expression of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in the DRG and sciatic nerve. Perisciatic nerve administration of levo-corydalmine (l-CDL) on the operated side obviously attenuated CCI-induced neuropathic pain and suppressed the expression of mNGF and proNGF. In addition, l-CDL-induced antinociception was reversed by intraplantar administration of NGF. Further results indicated that l-CDL-induced suppression of phosphorylated TAK1, MAPKs, and p65 and expression of the proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β in the DRG and sciatic nerve were all abolished by NGF. In addition, in vitro experiments indicated that l-CDL suppressed the secretion of NGF and proNGF in RAW264.7 macrophages and RSC96 Schwann cells, which was abolished by AP-1 and CREB agonists, respectively.ConclusionsThis study showed NGF inhibition suppressed TAK1 in the periphery to attenuate CCI-induced neuropathic pain through inhibition of downstream MAPK and p65 signaling. The natural compound l-CDL inhibited NGF secretion by macrophages and Schwann cells and downstream TAK1-MAPK/NF-κB signaling in the periphery to attenuate CCI-induced neuropathic pain. Video abstract Proposed mechanisms underlying the effect of l-CDL in periphery of CCI rats. In CCI rats, macropahages and Schwann cells could secret NGF to act on the receptors in the periphery to activate TAK1-MAPK/NF-κB axis and promote the release of proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α and IL-1β to promote neuropathic pain. l-CDL decreased the secretion of NGF through inhibiting AP-1 and CREB respectively in RAW264.7 and RSC96 Schwann cells to attenuate CCI-induced neuropathic pain by inhibiting the TAK1-p38 MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway.
