Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide peptide prevents renal ischemia reperfusion injury via counteracting oxidative stress.

ABSTRACT: Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide peptide (GLPP) scavenges oxygen free radicals that are a key factor in the pathogenesis of renal ischemia reperfusion injury (RIRI). The aim of this study was to determine whether GLPP could attenuate RIRI by counteracting the oxidative stress. The mechanism involved was assessed by an in vivo mouse RIRI model and an in vitro hypoxia/reoxygenation model, and tunicamycin-stimulated NRK-52E cells were used to explore the GLPP-mediated alleviation of ER stress. Experimental results showed that renal dysfunction and morphological damage were reduced in GLPP-treated group. The imbalance of redox status was reversed and production of ROS was reduced by GLPP. RIRI-induced mitochondrial- and ER stress-dependent apoptosis were dramatically inhibited in GLPP-treated group. Intriguingly, JNK activation in the kidney with RIRI or hypoxia/reoxygenation was inhibited by GLPP. These results suggest that the protective effect of GLPP against RIRI may be due to reducing oxidative stress, alleviating the mitochondrial and ER stress-dependent apoptosis caused by excessive ROS.

MicroRNA-24 antagonism prevents renal ischemia reperfusion injury.

Project description:Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury of the kidney is a major cause of AKI. MicroRNAs (miRs) are powerful regulators of various diseases. We investigated the role of apoptosis-associated miR-24 in renal I/R injury. miR-24 was upregulated in the kidney after I/R injury of mice and in patients after kidney transplantation. Cell-sorting experiments revealed a specific miR-24 enrichment in renal endothelial and tubular epithelial cells after I/R induction. In vitro, anoxia/hypoxia induced an enrichment of miR-24 in endothelial and tubular epithelial cells. Transient overexpression of miR-24 alone induced apoptosis and altered functional parameters in these cells, whereas silencing of miR-24 ameliorated apoptotic responses and rescued functional parameters in hypoxic conditions. miR-24 effects were mediated through regulation of H2A histone family, member X, and heme oxygenase 1, which were experimentally validated as direct miR-24 targets through luciferase reporter assays. In vitro, adenoviral overexpression of miR-24 targets lacking miR-24 binding sites along with miR-24 precursors rescued various functional parameters in endothelial and tubular epithelial cells. In vivo, silencing of miR-24 in mice before I/R injury resulted in a significant improvement in survival and kidney function, a reduction of apoptosis, improved histologic tubular epithelial injury, and less infiltration of inflammatory cells. miR-24 also regulated heme oxygenase 1 and H2A histone family, member X, in vivo. Overall, these results indicate miR-24 promotes renal ischemic injury by stimulating apoptosis in endothelial and tubular epithelial cell. Therefore, miR-24 inhibition may be a promising future therapeutic option in the treatment of patients with ischemic AKI.

Effects of <i>Ganoderma lucidum</i> polysaccharide peptide ameliorating cyclophosphamide-induced immune dysfunctions based on metabolomics analysis.

Project description:Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide peptide (GLPP) is one of the most abundant constituents of Ganoderma lucidum (G. lucidum), with a wide range of functional activities. The present study investigated the immunomodulatory effects of GLPP in cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced immunosuppressive mice. The results showed that 100 mg/kg/day of GLPP administration significantly alleviated CTX-induced immune damage by improving immune organ indexes, earlap swelling rate, the index of carbon phagocytosis and clearance value, secretion of cytokines (TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-2), and immunoglobulin A(IgA) in the mice. Furthermore, ultra-performance liquid chromatography with mass/mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was conducted to identify the metabolites, followed by biomarker and pathway analysis. The results showed that GLPP treatment alleviated CTX-induced alterations in the fecal metabolome profile, including arachidonic acid (AA), leukotriene D4 (LTD4), indole-3-ethanol, and formyltetrahydrofolate (CF), by reversing citric acid, malic acid, cortisol, and oleic acid. These results support the concept that GLPP exhibits immunomodulatory activity via the folate cycle, methionine cycle, TCA cycle, fatty acid biosynthesis and metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, AA metabolism, and cAMP pathways. In conclusion, the results could be helpful to understand the use of GLPP to clarify the immunomodulatory mechanism and be used as immunostimulants to prevent CTX-induced side effects in the immune system.

Slit2 prevents neutrophil recruitment and renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Project description:Neutrophils recruited to the postischemic kidney contribute to the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), which is the most common cause of renal failure among hospitalized patients. The Slit family of secreted proteins inhibits chemotaxis of leukocytes by preventing activation of Rho-family GTPases, suggesting that members of this family might modulate the recruitment of neutrophils and the resulting IRI. Here, in static and microfluidic shear assays, Slit2 inhibited multiple steps required for the infiltration of neutrophils into tissue. Specifically, Slit2 blocked the capture and firm adhesion of human neutrophils to inflamed vascular endothelial barriers as well as their subsequent transmigration. To examine whether these observations were relevant to renal IRI, we administered Slit2 to mice before bilateral clamping of the renal pedicles. Assessed at 18 hours after reperfusion, Slit2 significantly inhibited renal tubular necrosis, neutrophil and macrophage infiltration, and rise in plasma creatinine. In vitro, Slit2 did not impair the protective functions of neutrophils, including phagocytosis and superoxide production, and did not inhibit neutrophils from killing the extracellular pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. In vivo, administration of Slit2 did not attenuate neutrophil recruitment or bacterial clearance in mice with ascending Escherichia coli urinary tract infections and did not increase the bacterial load in the livers of mice infected with the intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. Collectively, these results suggest that Slit2 may hold promise as a strategy to combat renal IRI without compromising the protective innate immune response.

Hydrogen sulfide-induced hypometabolism prevents renal ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) can induce a hypometabolic, hibernation-like state in mammals when given in subtoxic concentrations. Pharmacologically reducing the demand for oxygen is a promising strategy to minimize unavoidable hypoxia-induced injury such as ischemia/reperfusion injury during renal transplantation. Here we show that H(2)S reduces metabolism in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro. Furthermore, we demonstrate the beneficial effects of H(2)S-induced hypometabolism in a model of bilateral renal ischemia/reperfusion injury using three different treatment strategies. The results demonstrate striking protective effects on survival, renal function, apoptosis, and inflammation. A hypometabolic state induced by H(2)S might have therapeutic potential to protect kidneys that suffer from hypoxia.

Antimetastatic Effects of <i>Ganoderma lucidum</i> Polysaccharide Peptide on B16-F10-luc-G5 Melanoma Mice With Sleep Fragmentation.

Project description:Ganoderma lucidum (Lingzhi) polysaccharide peptide (GL-pp) is a component of the globally acknowledged traditional Chinese medicine Ganoderma lucidum; Ganoderma lucidum is known for its sedative, hypnotic, immune regulatory, antitumor, and other pharmacological effects. In recent years, sleep disorders have been linked to many diseases and human body disorders, including cancer. Some experimental studies in mice found that sleep fragmentation could promote tumor development and progression. However, effects on GL-pp on tumor metastasis under circumstances of sleep disorders have rarely been studied. Thus, in this study, we used mice with sleep fragmentation (SF) bearing B16-F10-luc-G5 melanoma tumors to investigate the effect of SF on melanoma metastasis. Furthermore, we investigated the antitumor and antimetastatic effects of GL-pp (80 mg/kg) in mice suffering from SF and bearing B16-F10-luc-G5. Then, whole proteomics was used to analyze the differences in protein expression in the lung tissue between SF mice bearing B16-F10-luc-G5 with and without GL-pp administration. High-throughput pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA was also used to analyze the impact of GL-pp on the gut microbiota composition in SF mice bearing B16-F10-luc-G5. Last, the effects of GL-pp on macrophage polarization and TNF-α serum levels were detected. Collectively, we found that SF significantly facilitated the B16-F10-luc-G5 melanoma tumor metastasis in mice, while GL-pp significantly reduced B16-F10-luc-G5 melanoma tumor metastasis under the condition of SF, in which proteomics and gut microbiota had been changed greatly.

Recombinant thrombomodulin prevents acute lung injury induced by renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) complicated by acute lung injury has a detrimental effect on mortality among critically ill patients. Recently, a renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) model suggested the involvement of histones and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in the development of distant lung injury after renal IR. Given that recombinant thrombomodulin (rTM) has anti-inflammatory roles by binding to circulating histones, we aimed to clarify its effect on distant lung injury induced by AKI in a murine bilateral renal IR model. Both pretreatment and delayed treatment with rTM significantly decreased pulmonary myeloperoxidase activity, but they did not affect renal dysfunction at 24?h after renal IR. Additionally, rTM mitigated the renal IR-augmented expression of proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-?, interleukin-6, and keratinocyte-derived chemokine), and vascular leakage, as well as the degree of lung damage. Intense histone accumulation and active NET formation occurred in both the kidneys and the lungs; however, rTM significantly decreased the histone and NET accumulation only in the lungs. Administration of rTM may have protective impact on the lungs after renal IR by blocking histone and NET accumulation in the lungs, although no protection was observed in the kidneys. Treatment with rTM may be an adjuvant strategy to attenuate distant lung injury complicating AKI.

Glutamine attenuates renal ischemia-reperfusion injury and prevents acute kidney damage

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) represents a common complication in critically ill patients that is associated with an increased morbidity and mortality. Currently, no effective treatment options are available. Here, we show that glutamine significantly attenuates leukocyte recruitment and inflammatory signaling in human and murine tubular epithelial cells (TECs). In a murine AKI model induced by ischemia-reperfusion-injury (IRI) we show that glutamine causes transcriptomic and proteomic reprogramming in renal TECs and neutrophils, resulting in decreased epithelial apoptosis, neutrophil recruitment and improved mitochondrial functionality and respiration provoked by an ameliorated oxidative phosphorylation. We identify the proteins glutamine gamma glutamyltransferase 2 (Tgm2) and apoptosis signal-regulating kinase (Ask1) as the major targets of glutamine in apoptotic signaling. Increased Tgm2 expression and reduced Ask1 activation result in decreased JNK activation leading to a diminished mitochondrial intrinsic apoptosis in kidneys upon IRI-induced AKI and under hypoxia or following TNFα-treatment of TECs. Consequently, glutamine administration attenuated kidney injury in vivo during AKI progression as well as TEC viability in vitro under inflammatory and hypoxic conditions.

Peroxidase-Like Platinum Clusters Synthesized by Ganoderma lucidum Polysaccharide for Sensitively Colorimetric Detection of Dopamine.

Project description:The sensitive and selective detection of dopamine (DA) is very important for the early diagnosis of DA-related diseases. In this study, we reported the colorimetric detection of DA using Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide (GLP) stabilized platinum nanoclusters (Ptn-GLP NCs). When Pt600-GLP NCs was added, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was rapidly catalyzed and oxidized to blue oxTMB, indicating the peroxidase-like activity of Pt600-GLP NCs. The catalytic reaction on the substrate TMB followed the Michaelis-Menton kinetics with the ping-pong mechanism. The mechanism of the colorimetric reaction was mainly due to the formation of hydroxyl radical (•OH). Furthermore, the catalytic reaction of Pt600-GLP NCs was used in the colorimetric detection of DA. The linear range for DA was 1-100 μM and the detection limit was 0.66 μM. The sensitive detection of DA using Pt-GLP NCs with peroxidase-like activity offers a simple and practical method that may have great potential applications in the biotechnology field.
