Project description:Neuropathic pain (NP) is a complex chronic pain due to the nervous system damage or diseases.During NP development and progression, the neuroinflammation has been observed along the pain pathways from the spinal cord to the thalamus and the parietal cortex. It may be caused by the activation of glial cells, especially microglia, with production of cytokines and other inflammatory mediators within the central nervous system (CNS), especially in spinal cord. In this study, we used high-throughput RNA-seq technology to detect the global gene expression in spinal cord of rats in sham group and CCI model group(an animal model of neuropathic pain), and the differentially expressed genes between diseases and control group were obtained.Significant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of the Sham vs. CCI groups were identified using the criteria of a fold change>1.5 and P value <0.05. Finally, we focused on C/EBPβ-Clec7a Cross-talk-mediated NLRP3 Inflammasome-dependent Pyroptosis pathway and further studied its role in neuropathic pain.

Project description:Background and Aims: The activation of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) and NOD-like receptors protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasomes-mediated pyroptosis signaling pathways represent two distinct central mechanisms in liver disease. However, the interconnection between these two pathways and the epigenetic regulation of the STING-NLRP3 axis in hepatocyte pyroptosis during liver fibrosis remain unknown and is the focus of this study. Approach and Results: Liver fibrosis was induced in Sting knockout, Gasdermin D (Gsdmd) knockout mice, and in mice with hepatocyte-specific Nlrp3 deletion. RNA-sequencing, metabolomics, epigenetic compound screening system, and chromatin immunoprecipitation were utilized. STING and NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathways were activated in cirrhotic livers but were suppressed by Sting knockout. Sting knockout also ameliorated hepatic pyroptosis, inflammation, and fibrosis in the murine cirrhotic model. In vitro, STING induced pyroptosis in primary murine hepatocytes via activating the NLRP3 inflammasome. H3K4-specific histone methyltransferase WD repeat-containing protein 5 (WDR5) and DOT1-like histone H3K79 methyltransferase (DOT1L) were identified to regulate NLRP3 expression in STING-overexpressed AML12 hepatocytes. WDR5/DOT1L-mediated histone methylation enhanced interferon regulatory transcription factor 3 (IRF3) binding to the Nlrp3 promoter and promoted STING-induced Nlrp3 transcription in hepatocytes. The RNA-sequencing and metabolomics analysis in murine livers and primary hepatocytes showed that metabolic reprogramming might participate in NLRP3-mediated hepatocyte pyroptosis and liver fibrosis. Moreover, hepatocyte-specific Nlrp3 deletion and downstream Gsdmd knockout attenuated hepatic pyroptosis, inflammation, and fibrosis in murine cirrhotic models. Conclusions: This study describes a novel epigenetic mechanism by which the STING-WDR5/DOT1L/IRF3-NLRP3 signaling pathway enhances hepatocyte pyroptosis and hepatic inflammation in liver fibrosis.

Project description:The innate immune system recognizes nucleic acids as a signature of microbial infection and initiates host-protective responses, including the production of type I IFN and proinflammatory cytokines. Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1, also known as DLM-1 or DAI) was previously identified as a dsDNA binding protein, triggering DNA-mediated activation of innate immune responses. However, mice or cells lacking ZBP1 produce normal levels of type I IFN in response to dsDNA. Therefore, the classification of ZBP1 as a true DNA sensor remains to be resolved. Here, we report that the single stranded RNA virus, influenza A virus (IAV) is a trigger of the cytosolic sensor ZBP1. Sensing of IAV infection by ZBP1 engages a novel NLRP3 inflammasome pathway that is not defined by the conventions of the canonical and non-canonical NLRP3 inflammasome pathways. Surprisingly, IAV-induced cell death was not prevented by the absence of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Instead, we identified parallel contributions from pyroptosis, necroptosis and apoptosis in the execution of ZBP1-dependent cell death, mediated by the kinase RIPK3. Overall, the ability of ZBP1 to sense IAV infection signifies a point of divergence for IAV-induced programmed cell death pathways and inflammasome activation. We used microarrays to explore the gene expression profiles differentially expressed in influenza-infected bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM) isolated from Ifnar1-/- and wild-type mice.

Project description:Due to the complex pathogenesis of neuropathic pain (NP), the therapeutic effect of existing drugs on NP is not satisfactory, which seriously affects the life quality of patients. Accumulating studies have indicated that neuroinflammation in the spinal cord may play a vital role in NP development and progression. Levo-tetrahydropalmatine (l-THP) has been extensively used for the treatment of a variety of chronic pain for decades. However, the analgesic effects and the underlying mechanisms of I-THP against NP have not been fully elucidated. To address this problem, we herein carried out RNA-seq and bioinformatics analyses to identify the effective target profiling of I-THP including 1113 upregulated and 132 downregulated genes in spinal cord obtained from Chronic constrictive injury (CCI) rats with or without I-THP administration.

Project description:A limit to the clinical benefit of radiotherapy is not an incapacity to eliminate tumor cells but rather a limit on its capacity to do so without destroying normal tissue and inducing inflammation. Recent evidence reveals that the inflammasome is essential for mediating radiation-induced cell and tissue damage. In this study, using primary cultured bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) and a mouse radiation model, we explored the role of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and the secondary pyroptosis underlying radiation-induced immune cell death. We observed an increasing proportion of pyroptosis and elevating Caspase-1 activation in 10 and 20?Gy radiation groups. Nlrp3 knock out significantly diminished the quantity of cleaved-Caspase-1 (p10) and IL-1? as well as the proportion of pyroptosis. Additionally, in vivo research shows that 9.5?Gy of radiation promotes Caspase-1 activation in marginal zone cells and induces death in mice, both of which can be significantly inhibited by knocking out Nlrp3. Thus, based on these findings, we conclude that the NLRP3 inflammasome activation mediates radiation-induced pyroptosis in BMDMs. Targeting NLRP3 inflammasome and pyroptosis may serve as effective strategies to diminish injury caused by radiation.
