Inhibition of Netosis with PAD Inhibitor Attenuates Endotoxin Shock Induced Systemic Inflammation.

ABSTRACT: Neutrophils play a pivotal role in innate immunity by releasing neutrophils extracellular traps (NETs). Excessive NETs are detrimental to the local tissue and further exacerbate inflammation. Protein arginine deiminases (PAD) mediate histone citrullination and NET formation that, in turn, exacerbate endotoxin shock damages. In this study, we further investigated the molecular mechanism underlying PAD and NETs in endotoxic stress in mice. The control group mice were injected with solvent, the LPS endotoxic shock group mice were intraperitoneally injected with LPS at 35 mg/kg only, while the LPS and PAD inhibitor YW3-56 treatment group mice were injected with YW3-56 at 10 mg/kg prior to the LPS injection. YW3-56 significantly prolonged the survival time of the LPS-treated mice. NETs, cfDNA, and inflammatory factors were detected by ELISA in serum, paitoneal cavity, and lung at 24 h after LPS administration. Lung injuries were detected by immunostaining, and lung tissue transcriptomes were analyzed by RNA-seq at 24 h after LPS administration. We found that YW3-56 altered neutrophil tissue homeostasis, inhibited NET formation, and significantly decreased cytokines (IL-6, TNFα and IL-1β) levels, cytokines gene expression, and lung tissue injury. In summary, NET formation inhibition offers a new avenue to manage inflammatory damages under endotoxic stress.

Project description:IntroductionChronic inflammatory skin diseases may have a profound negative impact on the quality of life. Current treatment options may be inadequate, offering an unsatisfactory response or side effects. Therefore, ongoing efforts exist to identify novel effective and safe treatments. Heat shock protein (HSP) 90 is a chaperone that promotes the activity of a wide range of client proteins including key proinflammatory molecules involved in aberrant inflammation. Recently, a proof-of-concept clinical trial of 13 patients suggested that RGRN-305 (an HSP90 inhibitor) may be an oral treatment for psoriasis. However, HSP90 inhibition may be a novel therapeutic approach extending beyond psoriasis to include multiple immune-mediated inflammatory skin diseases.MethodsThis study aimed to investigate (i) the anti-inflammatory effects and mechanisms of HSP90 inhibition and (ii) the feasibility of topical RGRN-305 administration (new route of administration) in models of inflammation elicited by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in primary human keratinocytes and mice (irritative dermatitis murine model).Results/discussionIn primary human keratinocytes stimulated with TPA, a Nanostring® nCounter gene expression assay demonstrated that HSP90 inhibition with RGRN-305 suppressed many proinflammatory genes. Furthermore, when measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), RGRN-305 significantly reduced the gene expression of TNF, IL1B, IL6 and CXCL8. We next demonstrated that topical RGRN-305 application significantly ameliorated TPA-induced skin inflammation in mice. The increase in ear thickness (a marker of inflammation) was significantly reduced (up to 89% inhibition). In accordance, RT-qPCR of the ear tissue demonstrated that RGRN-305 robustly reduced the gene expression of proinflammatory markers (Tnf, Il1b, Il6, Il17A and Defb4). Moreover, RNA sequencing revealed that RGRN-305 mitigated TPA-induced alterations in gene expression and suppressed genes implicated in inflammation. Lastly, we discovered that the anti-inflammatory effects were mediated, at least partly, by suppressing the activity of NF-κB, ERK1/2, p38 MAPK and c-Jun signaling pathways, which are consistent with previous findings in other experimental models beyond skin inflammation. In summary, HSP90 inhibition robustly suppressed TPA-induced inflammation by targeting key proinflammatory cytokines and signaling pathways. Our findings suggest that HSP90 inhibition may be a novel mechanism of action for treating immune-mediated skin disease beyond psoriasis, and it may be a topical treatment option.

Project description:Defensins have attracted considerable research interest worldwide because of their potential to serve as a substitute for antibiotics. In this study, we characterized a novel porcine β-defensin (pBD129) and explored its role in alleviating bacterial endotoxin-induced inflammation and intestinal epithelium atrophy. The pBD129 gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. A recombinant pBD129 protein was also purified. To explore its role in alleviating the endotoxin-induced inflammation, mice, with or without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge were treated by pBD129 at different doses. The recombinant pBD129 showed significant antimicrobial activities against the E. coli and Streptococcus with a minimal inhibitory concentration (MICs) of 32 μg/mL. Hemolytic assays showed that the pBD129 had no detrimental impact on cell viabilities. Interestingly, we found that pBD129 attenuated LPS-induced inflammatory responses by decreasing serum concentrations of inflammatory cytokines, such as the IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α (P < 0.05). Moreover, pBD129 elevated the intestinal villus height (P < 0.05) and enhanced the expression and localization of the major tight junction-associated protein ZO-1 in LPS-challenged mice. Additionally, pDB129 at a high dose significantly decreased serum diamine oxidase (DAO) concentration (P < 0.05) and reduced intestinal epithelium cell apoptosis (P < 0.05) in LPS-challenged mice. Importantly, pBD129 elevated the expression level of Bcl-2-associated death promoter (Bcl-2), but down-regulated the expression levels of apoptosis-related genes such as the B-cell lymphoma-2-associated X protein (Bax), BH3-interacting domain death agonist (Bid), cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-3 (Caspase-3), and caspase-9 in the intestinal mucosa (P < 0.05). These results suggested a novel function of the mammalian defensins, and the anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of pBD129 may allow it a potential substitute for conventionally used antibiotics or drugs.
