Sodium butyrate inhibits high cholesterol-induced neuronal amyloidogenesis by modulating NRF2 stabilization-mediated ROS levels: involvement of NOX2 and SOD1.

ABSTRACT: The gut-brain axis is currently being studied as a therapeutic strategy for neurological diseases, especially Alzheimer's disease (AD). Obesity results in the gut microbiota dysbiosis, which includes butyrate-producing bacteria are reduced. Although sodium butyrate (NaB) has emerged as the potential therapeutic substance in AD, there is a lack of detailed results into what signaling pathways affect amyloidogenesis in AD induced by obesity. Thus, we investigated the regulatory role of NaB on amyloidogenesis in neuronal cells under high cholesterol. In our results, we verified that increased amyloid ? peptide (A?) accumulation in the brain of obese mice and a reduction in butyrate-producing bacteria due to the gut microbiota dysbiosis induced by obesity. We showed that NaB decreased the expression levels of beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) and A? accumulation induced by high cholesterol in SK-N-MC cells. We demonstrated that NaB was absorbed in cells through sodium-coupled monocarboxylate transporter 1 (SMCT1) and then inhibited high cholesterol-induced A? accumulation. Subsequently, we also observed that reactive oxygen species (ROS) were overproduced because of increased NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) expression under high cholesterol. Meanwhile, NaB decreased NOX2 levels through a reduction of NF-?B activity, which ultimately inhibited A? accumulation caused by high cholesterol. We demonstrated that NaB increased the expression levels of p21 under high cholesterol, contributing to p21/NRF2 (Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) colocalization, which leads to NRF2 stabilization. NRF2 stabilization causes NF-?B inactivation, followed by NOX2 suppression and superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) upregulation. Thus, NaB with SOD1 silencing under high cholesterol did not eliminate excessive ROS, and eventually resulted in A? accumulation. In conclusion, we demonstrated that NaB prevents excessive ROS through NOX2 suppression and SOD1 upregulation by p21/NRF2 pathway, which is critical for inhibiting BACE1-dependent amyloidogenesis in neuronal cells exposed to high cholesterol environment.

Project description:Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the inducible NADPH oxidase type 2 (NOX2) complex are essential for clearing certain infectious organisms but may also have a role in regulating inflammation and immune response. For example, ROS is involved in myeloid derived suppressor cell (MDSC)- and regulatory T cell (T(reg)) mediated T- and NK-cell suppression. However, abundant ROS produced within the tumor microenvironment, or by the tumor itself may also yield oxidative stress, which can blunt anti-tumor immune responses as well as eventually leading to tumor toxicity. In this study we aimed to decipher the role of NOX2-derived ROS in a chemically (by methylcholanthrene (MCA)) induced sarcoma model. Superoxide production by NOX2 requires the p47(phox) (NCF1) subunit to organize the formation of the NOX2 complex on the cell membrane. Homozygous mutant mice (NCF1*/*) have a functional loss of their super oxide burst while heterozygous mice (NCF1*/+) retain this key function. Mice harboring either a homo- or a heterozygous mutation were injected intramuscularly with MCA to induce sarcoma formation. We found that NOX2 functionality does not determine tumor incidence in the tested MCA model. Comprehensive immune monitoring in tumor bearing mice showed that infiltrating immune cells experienced an increase in their oxidative state regardless of the NOX2 functionality. While MCA-induced sarcomas where characterized by a T(reg) and MDSC accumulation, no significant differences could be found between NCF1*/* and NCF1*/+ mice. Furthermore, infiltrating T cells showed an increase in effector-memory cell phenotype markers in both NCF1*/* and NCF1*/+ mice. Tumors established from both NCF1*/* and NCF1*/+ mice were tested for their in vitro proliferative capacity as well as their resistance to cisplatin and radiation therapy, with no differences being recorded. Overall our findings indicate that NOX2 activity does not play a key role in tumor development or immune cell infiltration in the chemically induced MCA sarcoma model.
