MiR-27-3p regulates TLR2/4-dependent mouse alveolar macrophage activation by targetting PPARγ. Clin Sci (Lond) 2018; 132:943-958. [PMID: 29572385 DOI: 10.1042/cs20180083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2018] [Revised: 03/19/2018] [Accepted: 03/23/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Activation of alveolar macrophages (AMs) and the release of cytokines play critical roles in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, little is known about the mechanisms of AM activation. miRNAs have recently emerged as key regulators of inflammation and as mediators of macrophage activation and polarization. We identified potential miRNAs related to AM activation using miRNA microarray analysis, which showed that miR-27-3p expression was up-regulated in AMs and the lung tissues of mice exposed to cigarette smoke (CS)/lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and found that miR-27-3p regulated proinflammatory cytokine production and AM polarization depending on TLR2/4 intracellular signaling in AMs. We also found that miR-27-3p controlled TLR2/4 signaling in AMs via targetting the 3′-UTR sequences of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and inhibiting PPARγ activation. Moreover, we found that PPARγ activation not only inhibited CS/LPS-induced TLR2/4 expression and miR-27-3p-mediated TLR2/4 signaling cascades involving the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK)/p38, and Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathways in AMs but also ameliorated CS/LPS-induced AM activation and pulmonary inflammation. Our study revealed that miR-27-3p mediated AM activation by the inhibition of PPARγ activation and sensitization of TLR signaling.

Brain Behav 2018; 8:e00948. [PMID: 29670828 PMCID: PMC5893335 DOI: 10.1002/brb3.948] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2017] [Revised: 01/23/2018] [Accepted: 01/24/2018] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To detect the expression of high-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and their downstream signaling factors-myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)-in the sera of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) in order to evaluate the relationship of the HMGB1-TLR4 axis with PD development and progression. Methods The serum HMGB1 and TLR4 protein levels of 120 patients with PD and 100 healthy volunteers were measured using double-antibody sandwich ELISA, and their correlations with PD staging, disease duration, drug treatment effectiveness, and clinical classification were analyzed. In addition, their correlations with the key downstream factors of the HMGB1-TLR4 axis (MyD88, NF-κB, and TNF-α) were analyzed. Results HMGB1 and TLR4 expressions were higher in the peripheral blood of patients with PD than in healthy volunteers. PD patients with poor drug treatment outcomes had significantly higher HMGB1 and TLR4 expressions than PD patients with stable drug treatment outcomes. Higher HMGB1 and TLR4 expressions were found in patients at higher PD stages, and patients with >4-year disease duration had significantly higher HMGB1 and TLR4 expressions than patients with <4-year disease duration. No significant difference in HMGB1 and TLR4 expressions was found among patients with tremor-dominant, akinetic-rigid, and mixed subtypes of PD. NF-κB and TNF-α expressions were positively correlated with high expression of the HMGB1-TLR4 axis. Conclusion High expression of the HMGB1-TLR4 axis is closely associated with PD development, progression, drug treatment effectiveness, staging, and disease duration and has great significance for PD diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Inflammation is a biological response of the immune system that can be triggered by a variety of factors, including pathogens, damaged cells and toxic compounds. These factors may induce acute and/or chronic inflammatory responses in the heart, pancreas, liver, kidney, lung, brain, intestinal tract and reproductive system, potentially leading to tissue damage or disease. Both infectious and non-infectious agents and cell damage activate inflammatory cells and trigger inflammatory signaling pathways, most commonly the NF-κB, MAPK, and JAK-STAT pathways. Here, we review inflammatory responses within organs, focusing on the etiology of inflammation, inflammatory response mechanisms, resolution of inflammation, and organ-specific inflammatory responses.

Dengue fatal cases present virus-specific HMGB1 response in peripheral organs. Sci Rep 2017; 7:16011.

Abstract
Dengue is an important infectious disease that presents high incidence and yields a relevant number of fatal cases (about 20,000) every year worldwide. Despite its epidemiological relevance, there are many knowledge gaps concerning dengue pathogenesis, especially with regards to the circumstances that drive a mild clinical course to a severe disease. In this work, we investigated the participation of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), an important modulator of inflammation, in dengue fatal cases. Histopathological and ultrastructural analyses revealed that liver, lung and heart post-mortem samples were marked by tissue abnormalities, such as necrosis and apoptotic cell death. These observations go in line with an HMGB1-mediated response and raised concerns regarding the participation of this cytokine in promoting/perpetuating inflammation in severe dengue. Further experiments of immunohistochemistry (IHC) showed increased expression of cytoplasmic HMGB1 in dengue-extracted tissues when compared to non-dengue controls. Co-staining of DENV RNA and HMGB1 in the host cell cytoplasm, as found by in situ hybridization and IHC, confirmed the virus specific induction of the HMGB1-mediated response in these peripheral tissues. This report brings the first in-situ evidence of the participation of HMGB1 in severe dengue and highlights novel considerations in the development of dengue immunopathogenesis.

Jiang N, Chen X. Protective effect of high mobility group box-1 silence on diabetic retinopathy: an in vivo study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PATHOLOGY 2017; 10:8148-8160.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the effects of HMGB1 silence on cell apoptosis, inflammatory response and endothelial permeability barrier. METHODS Retinal tissues were isolated from 8 week-old SD rats and cells were cultured and identified. Effects of HMGB1 silence were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Proliferation capability of cells was detected by MTT assay and LDH activity assays. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry, Hoechst staining and Caspase-3 activity assay. Furthermore, concentrations of VEGF, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, TNF-α and MCP-1 in the cell media were measured. RESULTS Results of our study showed that high concentration of glucose caused increased cell apoptosis and inflammatory response, and also influenced the endothelial permeability barrier. Whereas, these damaging effects of high concentration of glucose could be relieved by HMGB1 silence. CONCLUSION The present study indicates that HMGB silence is a promising therapeutic option for diabetic retinopathy, and also provides theoretical basis for further exploration of diabetic retinopathy treatment.
