Tangeretin alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting ferroptosis of macrophage via Nrf2 pathways
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe clinical condition with a high mortality rate. Tangeretin, widely found in citrus fruits, has been reported to exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, whether Tangeretin protects against sepsis-induced ALI and the potential mechanisms remain unclear.We established ALI model via intraperitoneally injected with 5 mg/kg lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for 12 h. Tangeretin was applied intraperitoneally 30 min before LPS treatment. The lung tissue samples from both the LPS and LPS + TAN groups were subjected to RNA sequencing analysis, conducted by OE Biotech Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). We performed differential gene expression analysis using RNA-seq data between LPS and LPS/Tangeretin group.GSEA analysis between LPS and LPS/Tangeretin group showed that IL6_JAK_STAT3_SIGNALING, INFLAMMATORY_RESPONSE, TNFA_SIGNALING_VIA_NFKB were significantly enriched (Fig.3C-E). These results identified the anti-inflammatory effect of Tangeretin against sepsis-induced ALI.
