Puerarin Induces Molecular Details of Ferroptosis-Associated Anti-Inflammatory on RAW264.7 Macrophages.

ABSTRACT: Puerarin is a natural flavonoid with significant anti-inflammatory effects. Recent studies have suggested that ferroptosis may involve puerarin countering inflammation. However, the mechanism of ferroptosis mediated by the anti-inflammatory process of puerarin has not been widely explored. Herein, puerarin at a concentration of 40 μM showed an anti-inflammatory effect on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced macrophages RAW264.7. The analysis of network pharmacology indicated that 51 common targets were enriched in 136 pathways, and most of the pathways were associated with ferroptosis. Subsequently, the analysis of metabolomics obtained 61 differential metabolites that were enriched in 30 metabolic pathways. Furthermore, integrated network pharmacology and metabolomics revealed that puerarin exerted an excellent effect on anti-inflammatory in RAW264.7 via regulating ferroptosis-related arachidonic acid metabolism, tryptophan metabolism, and glutathione metabolism pathways, and metabolites such as 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), serotonin, kynurenine, oxidized glutathione (GSSG), gamma-glutamylcysteine and cysteinylglycine were involved. In addition, the possible active binding sites of the potential targeted proteins such as acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2), arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase (ALOX15) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) with puerarin were further revealed by molecular docking. Thus, we suggested that ferroptosis mediated the anti-inflammatory effects of puerarin in macrophages RAW264.7 induced by LPS.

Project description:Defense and protection to multiple harmful stimuli are the inflammation, when is self-amplified and uncontrolled is the basis of the pathogenesis of a wide variety of inflammatory illness. The aim of this study was to evaluate if Petiveria alliacea could attenuate inflammation in a murine model of RAW264 macrophages the involved model and its involved mechanism.The ethanol extract from P. alliacea was precipitated with water and supernatant was used for this study (PW). The anti-inflammatory effects of PW were investigated through evaluating of the production of several cytokines, chemokines, and expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages. Also was determined the ability to decrease the oxidative stress in RAW264.7 cells with carboxy-2',7'-dichloro-dihydro-fluorescein diacetate.PW significantly suppress the secretion of prostaglandin E2, leukotriene C4, interleukin (IL)-1 β, IL-6, IL-10, interferon gamma nitric oxide (NO), inducible NO synthase, IL-1 β, IL-4, in RAW264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, PW also markedly inhibited the transcriptional activity of NF-κB. PW produced significant anti-inflammatory activity through inhibiting the production of inflammatory mediators through the NF-κB inactivation in the LPS-stimulated RAW24.7 cells.PW exerts significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, and this effect can be attributed in part, to the presence of dibenzyl disulfide, dibenzyl trisulfide pinitol, coumarin, myricetin, glutamyl-S-benzyl cysteine, and petiveriins A and B.Treatment with ethanol extract from Petiveria alliacea which was previously precipitated with water and supernatant (PE) was tested in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. PE suppressed the level of oxidative stress and the induction of proinflammatory mediators, as PGE2, LTC4, IL-1 ß, IL-6, IL-10, IFN- NO, iNOS, IL-1 ß, IL-4, in RAW264.7 macrophages through NF-B inactivation. These findings suggest that P. alliacea affords promising therapeutic in inflammatory diseases.

Project description:Context Torin2 has various pharmacological properties. However, its anti-inflammatory activity has not been reported. Objective This study focused on the potential anti-inflammatory properties of Torin2 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-evoked RAW264.7 murine macrophages. The study aimed to shed light on the molecular mechanisms that ameliorate these effects. Methods Torin2 was applied to 100 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages in vitro. Nitric oxide (NO) levels were detected using the Griess reagent kit. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β, interleukin (IL)-6, and tumor necrosis factor in the supernatant fraction were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Gene expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were tested using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase proteins, phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) subgroups, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38, I-kappa-B-alpha (IκBα), and nuclear factor-kappa-B (NF-κB), and activation in extracts were detected via western blotting. Nuclear factor-kappa-B/p65 nuclear translocation was tested using an immunofluorescence assay. Results The results demonstrated that pre-treatment with Torin2 profoundly attenuated the lipopolysaccharide-stimulated levels of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2, pro-inflammatory cytokines, messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), and protein expression of cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase. Collectively, Torin2 pre-treatment notably weakened lipopolysaccharide-induced damage by reducing the phosphorylation of nuclear factor-kappa-B, p38, c-Jun N-terminal kinase, extracellular signal-regulated kinase proteins, and nuclear factor-kappa-B/p65 nuclear translocation. Conclusion Numerous pieces of evidence indicated that Torin2 reversed inflammatory activation by regulating nuclear factor-kappa-B and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways and provided a tentative potential candidate for preventing and treating inflammatory diseases.
