Anti-Inflammatory Activity and Mechanism of Hydrostatin-SN1 From Hydrophis cyanocinctus in Interleukin-10 Knockout Mice.

ABSTRACT: Biopeptides derived from marine species have garnered significant research interest owing to their anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anticancer activities. In our previous study, Hydrostatin-SN1, a bioactive peptide extracted from the Hydrophis cyanocinctus venom gland T7 phage display library, demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity in a dextran sulfate sodium-induced murine colitis model. In this study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory activity and the underlying mechanism of Hydrostatin-SN1 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced bone marrow-derived macrophage (BMDM) cells and interleukin (IL)-10 knockout mice. The results showed that Hydrostatin-SN1 inhibited phosphorylation of JNK, ERK1/2, and p38 and decreased the mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?), IL-6, and IL-1? in LPS-stimulated BMDM cells in a dose-dependent manner. In LPS-induced acute shock model, a significant higher survival rate of Hydrostatin-SN1-treated mice was observed. Furthermore, Hydrostatin-SN1 reduced body weight loss, decreased disease activity index, reduced spleen index, prevented histological injury, and inhibited the expression of IL-? and phosphorylation of JNK, ERK1/2, and p38 in the colon tissue of IL-10 knockout mice. Additionally, the positive expression rate of TNF-? in mice colon was decreased. Overall, our results suggest that Hydrostatin-SN1 has significant anti-inflammatory effects, both in vitro and in vivo.

Project description:Epstein Barr virus (EBV) is a gamma herpes virus associated with certain malignancies and autoimmune diseases. EBV maintains latency in B cells with occasional reactivation, in part by overcoming the host immune response with viral homologs of several human proteins. EBV interleukin 10 (vIL-10), a lytic phase protein, is a homolog of human IL-10 (hIL-10). The effect of vIL-10 on human monocytes, which are one of the first immune cells to respond to infection, is not known. To understand the role of vIL-10, monocytes from peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated with hIL-10 or vIL-10. Human IL-10 stimulated STAT3 phosphorylation, which is required for suppression of inflammatory responses. However, vIL-10 induced significantly lower phosphorylation of STAT3 compared to hIL-10, and was less efficient in downregulating inflammatory genes. vIL-10 significantly reduced the expression of scavenger receptor CD163 on monocytes, suggesting inhibition of M2 polarization. Furthermore, uptake of apoptotic cells was reduced in vIL-10-stimulated monocytes compared to hIL-10-stimulated monocytes. A neutralizing antibody to IL-10R1 inhibited STAT3 phosphorylation induced by either hIL-10 or vIL-10, suggesting that vIL-10 signals through IL-10R1. Interestingly, vIL-10 suppressed hIL-10-induced STAT3 phosphorylation and inhibited upregulation of suppressors of inflammatory response by hIL-10. We further show that vIL-10 levels were significantly higher in plasma samples from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients compared to matched unaffected controls. vIL-10 levels did not correlate with hIL-10 levels, but were associated with levels of IgA antibodies to EBV viral capsid antigen, which is an indirect measure of viral reactivation. We propose that the suppression of hIL-10- induced anti-inflammatory genes by vIL-10, together with an increase in inflammatory gene expression, may overcome the anti-inflammatory effects of hIL-10 and exacerbate autoimmune responses in systemic autoimmune diseases.
