Chlorogenic Acid Attenuates Oxidative Stress-Induced Intestinal Epithelium Injury by Co-Regulating the PI3K/Akt and IκBα/NF-κB Signaling.

ABSTRACT: Chlorogenic acid (CGA) is a natural polyphenol compound abundant in green plants with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Here, we explore its protective effects and potential mechanisms of action on intestinal epithelium exposure to oxidative stress (OS). We show that CGA attenuated OS-induced intestinal inflammation and injury in weaned pigs, which is associated with elevated antioxidant capacity and decreases in inflammatory cytokine secretion and cell apoptosis. In vitro study showed that CGA elevated phosphorylation of two critical signaling proteins of the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) pathway, Akt and nuclear factor erythroid-derived-related factor 2, leading to the elevated expression of intracellular antioxidant enzymes and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). Specific inhibition of HO-1 partially abolished its anti-inflammatory effect in IPEC-J2 cells exposure to OS. Interestingly, CGA suppressed the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) induced inflammatory responses in IPEC-J2 cells by decreasing phosphorylation of two critical inflammatory signaling proteins, NF-kappa-B inhibitor alpha (IκBα) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). Specific inhibition of HO-1 cannot fully abolish its anti-inflammatory effect on the TNF-α-challenged cells. These results strongly suggested that CGA is a natural anti-inflammatory agent that can attenuate OS-induced inflammation and injury of intestinal epithelium via co-regulating the PI3K/Akt and IκBα/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Project description:BackgroundRegulator of cullins 1 (ROC1) is an important catalytic subunit of cullin-RING E3 ligase. Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling is closely related to tumor invasion and metastasis. Earlier, we reported that ROC1 was associated with a poor prognosis in patients with bladder cancer (BCa). However, it is unclear whether ROC1 is involved in the NF-κB signaling associated with malignant BCa progression.MethodsThe expression of ROC1 and p65 in bladder cancer and paracancerous tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Pearson correlation was used to assess correlation between ROC1 and p65 protein expressions. The wound-healing and transwell assays were used to monitor cell invasion and migration. The effect of ROC1 on the expression of key proteins in the NF-κB signaling was determined by immunofluorescence and western blot (WB). Cycloheximide (CHX), MG132 and immunoprecipitation assays were used to evaluate the effect of ROC1 on the ubiquitination of phosphorylated inhibitor of kappa B alpha (p-IκBα). A lung metastasis mouse model was generated to detect the role of ROC1 in tumor metastasis.ResultsWe found that ROC1 was up-regulated in BCa tissues and cell lines, and high ROC1 levels were positively correlated with higher tumour grade, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and poor prognosis. Linear-regression analysis showed significant a Pearson correlation between ROC1 and nuclear p65 expression in BCa tissue microarray (TMA) samples. Functional studies demonstrated that ROC1 promoted BCa cell invasion and migration. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that ROC1 activated NF-κB signaling by enhancing the ubiquitination of p-IκBα, which caused p65 nuclear translocation and promoted the transcription of some metastasis-related target genes, such as urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), intracellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1), and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), resulting in promoting BCa metastasis.ConclusionROC1 plays an important role in the progression of BCa and serves as a potential diagnostic and therapeutic target for patients with BCa.

Project description:Background and purposeSubarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening subtype of stroke with high rates of mortality. In the early stages of SAH, neuroinflammation is one of the important mechanisms leading to brain injury after SAH. In various central nervous system diseases, activation of RARα receptor has been proven to demonstrate neuroprotective effects. This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of RARα receptor activation after SAH.MethodsInternal carotid artery puncture method used to established SAH model in Sprague-Dawley rats. The RARα specific agonist Am80 was injected intraperitoneally 1 hour after SAH. AGN196996 (specific RARα inhibitor), Msr1 siRNA and LY294002 (PI3K-Akt inhibitor) were administered via the lateral ventricle before SAH. Evaluation SAH grade, neurological function score, blood-brain barrier permeability. BV2 cells and SH-SY5Y cells were co-cultured and stimulated by oxyhemoglobin to establish an in vitro model of SAH. RT-PCR, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining were used to investigate pathway-related proteins, microglia activation and inflammatory response. Results: The expression of RARα, Mafb, and Msr1 increased in rat brain tissue after SAH. Activation of the RARα receptor with Am80 improved neurological deficits and attenuated brain edema, blood brain barrier permeability. Am80 increased the expression of Mafb and Msr1, and reduced neuroinflammation by enhancing the phosphorylation of Akt and by inhibiting the phosphorylation of NF-κB. AGN196996, Msr1 siRNA, and LY294002 reversed the therapeutic effects of Am80 by reducing the expression of Msr1 and the phosphorylation of Akt. In vitro model of SAH, Am80 promoted M1-to-M2 phenotypic polarization in microglia and suppressed the nuclear transcription of NF-κB.ConclusionActivation of the RARα receptor attenuated neuroinflammation by promoting M1-to-M2 phenotypic polarization in microglia and regulating the Mafb/Msr1/PI3K-Akt/NF-κB pathway. RARα might serve as a potential target for SAH therapy.
