Anti-CD321 antibody immunotherapy protects liver against ischemia and reperfusion-induced injury.

ABSTRACT: The prognosis of the liver transplant patients was frequently deteriorated by ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI) in the liver. Infiltration of inflammatory cells is reported to play critical roles in the pathogenesis of hepatic IRI. Although T lymphocytes, neutrophils and monocytes infiltrated into the liver underwent IRI, we found that neutrophil depletion significantly attenuated the injury and serum liver enzyme levels in a murine model. Interestingly, the expression of CD321/JAM-A/F11R, one of essential molecules for transmigration of circulating leukocytes into inflammatory tissues, was significantly augmented on hepatic sinusoid endothelium at 1 h after ischemia and maintained until 45 min after reperfusion. The intraportal administration of anti-CD321 monoclonal antibody (90G4) significantly inhibited the leukocytes infiltration after reperfusion and diminished the damage responses by hepatic IRI (serum liver enzymes, inflammatory cytokines and hepatocyte cell death). Taken together, presented results demonstrated that blockade of CD321 by 90G4 antibody significantly attenuated hepatic IRI accompanied with substantial inhibition of leukocytes infiltration, particularly inhibition of neutrophil infiltration in the early phase of reperfusion. Thus, our work offers a potent therapeutic target, CD321, for preventing liver IRI.

Project description:BackgroundHepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is the primary reason for complications following hepatectomy and liver transplantation (LT). Insulin-induced gene 2 (Insig2) is one of several proteins that anchor the reticulum in the cytoplasm and is essential for metabolism and inflammatory responses. However, its function in IR injury remains ambiguous.MethodsInsig2 global knock-out (KO) mice and mice with adeno-associated-virus8 (AAV8)-delivered Insig2 hepatocyte-specific overexpression were subjected to a 70% hepatic IR model. Liver injury was assessed by monitoring hepatic histology, inflammatory responses, and apoptosis. Hypoxia/reoxygenation stimulation (H/R) of primary hepatocytes and hypoxia model induced by cobalt chloride (CoCl2) were used for in vitro experiments. Multi-omics analysis of transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics was used to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying Insig2.ResultsHepatic Insig2 expression was significantly reduced in clinical samples undergoing LT and the mouse IR model. Our findings showed that Insig2 depletion significantly aggravated IR-induced hepatic inflammation, cell death and injury, whereas Insig2 overexpression caused the opposite phenotypes. The results of in vitro H/R experiments were consistent with those in vivo. Mechanistically, multi-omics analysis revealed that Insig2 is associated with increased antioxidant pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) activity. The inhibition of glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase (G6PD), a rate-limiting enzyme of PPP, rescued the protective effect of Insig2 overexpression, exacerbating liver injury. Finally, our findings indicated that mouse IR injury could be attenuated by developing a nanoparticle delivery system that enables liver-targeted delivery of substrate of PPP (glucose 6-phosphate).ConclusionsInsig2 has a protective function in liver IR by upregulating the PPP activity and remodeling glucose metabolism. The supplementary glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) salt may serve as a viable therapeutic target for alleviating hepatic IR.

Project description:Search for new cardioprotective therapies is of great importance since no cardioprotective drugs are available on the market. In line with this need, several natural biomolecules have been extensively tested for their potential cardioprotective effects. Previously, we have shown that biglycan, a member of a diverse group of small leucine-rich proteoglycans, enhanced the expression of cardioprotective genes and decreased ischemia/reperfusion-induced cardiomyocyte death via a TLR-4 dependent mechanism. Therefore, in the present study we aimed to test whether decorin, a small leucine-rich proteoglycan closely related to biglycan, could exert cardiocytoprotection and to reveal possible downstream signaling pathways. Methods: Primary cardiomyocytes isolated from neonatal and adult rat hearts were treated with 0 (Vehicle), 1, 3, 10, 30 and 100 nM decorin as 20 h pretreatment and maintained throughout simulated ischemia and reperfusion (SI/R). In separate experiments, to test the mechanism of decorin-induced cardio protection, 3 nM decorin was applied in combination with inhibitors of known survival pathways, that is, the NOS inhibitor L-NAME, the PKG inhibitor KT-5823 and the TLR-4 inhibitor TAK-242, respectively. mRNA expression changes were measured after SI/R injury. Results: Cell viability of both neonatal and adult cardiomyocytes was significantly decreased due to SI/R injury. Decorin at 1, 3 and 10 nM concentrations significantly increased the survival of both neonatal and adult myocytes after SI/R. At 3nM (the most pronounced protective concentration), it had no effect on apoptotic rate of neonatal cardiac myocytes. No one of the inhibitors of survival pathways (L-NAME, KT-5823, TAK-242) influenced the cardiocytoprotective effect of decorin. MYND-type containing 19 (Zmynd19) and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E nuclear import factor 1 (Eif4enif1) were significantly upregulated due to the decorin treatment. In conclusion, this is the first demonstration that decorin exerts a direct cardiocytoprotective effect possibly independent of NO-cGMP-PKG and TLR-4 dependent survival signaling.
