Abstract
Stroke is a significant global burden, causing extensive morbidity and mortality. In metabolic states where glucose is limited, ketone bodies, predominantly β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), act as alternative fuel sources. Elevated levels of BHB have been found in the ischemic hemispheres of animal models of stroke, supporting its role in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia. Clinically, higher serum and urinary BHB concentrations have been associated with adverse outcomes in ischemic stroke, highlighting its potential utility as a prognostic biomarker. In both animal and cellular models, exogenous BHB administration has exhibited neuroprotective effects, reduction of infarct size, and improvement of neurological outcomes. In this review, we focus on the role of BHB before and after ischemic stroke, with an emphasis on the therapeutic potential and mechanisms of ketone administration after ischemic stroke.

Wen J, Xu Q, Li J, Shen X, Zhou X, Huang J, Liu S. Sodium butyrate exerts a neuroprotective effect in rats with acute carbon monoxide poisoning by activating autophagy through the mTOR signaling pathway. Sci Rep 2024; 14:4610. [PMID: 38409245 PMCID: PMC10897214 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-55198-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a prevalent type of poisoning that causes significant harm globally. Delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP) is a severe complication that occurs after acute CO poisoning; however, the exact underlying pathological cause of DEACMP remains unclear. Accumulating evidence indicates that abnormal inflammation and immune-mediated brain damage, cellular apoptosis and autophagy, and direct neuronal toxicity are involved in the development of delayed neurologic sequelae. Sodium butyrate, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, has gained increasing attention for its numerous beneficial effects on various diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, inflammatory diseases, and cerebral damage. In this study, an acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) model is established in rats to investigate the mechanism of CO poisoning and the therapeutic potential of sodium butyrate. The results suggested that the ACOP rats had impaired spatial memory, and cell apoptosis was observed in the hippocampi with activated autophagy. Sodium butyrate treatment further increased the activation of autophagy in the hippocampi of CO-exposed rats, inhibited apoptosis, and consolidated spatial memory. These findings indicated that sodium butyrate may improve memory and cognitive function in ACMP rats by promoting autophagy and inhibiting apoptosis.

HDAC6-selective inhibitor CAY10603 ameliorates cigarette smoke-induced small airway remodeling by regulating epithelial barrier dysfunction and reversing. Respir Res 2024; 25:66. [PMID: 38317159 PMCID: PMC10840206 DOI: 10.1186/s12931-024-02688-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Small airway remodelling is a vital characteristic of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which is mainly caused by epithelial barrier dysfunction and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Recent studies have indicated that histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) plays an important role in the dysregulation of epithelial function. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic effects and underlying mechanisms of an inhibitor with high selectivity for HDAC6 in COPD. METHODS Cigarette smoke (CS) exposure was used to establish a CS-induced COPD mouse model. CAY10603 at doses of 2.5 and 10 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally on alternate days. The protective effects of CAY10603 against CS-induced emphysema, epithelial barrier function and small airway remodeling were evaluated using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, Masson's trichrome staining, immunohistochemical staining, and western blot. The human lung bronchial epithelial cell line (HBE) was used to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism of action of CAY10603. RESULTS HDAC6 levels in the lung homogenates of CS-exposed mice were higher than that those in control mice. Compared to the CS group, the mean linear intercept (MLI) of the CAY10603 treatment group decreased and the mean alveolar number (MAN)increased. Collagen deposition was reduced in groups treated with CAY10603. The expression of α-SMA was markedly upregulated in the CS group, which was reversed by CAY10603 treatment. Conversely, E-cadherin expression in the CS group was further downregulated, which was reversed by CAY10603 treatment. CAY10603 affects the tight junction protein expression of ZO-1 and occludin. ZO-1 and occludin expression were markedly downregulated in the CS group. After CAY10603treatment, the protein expression level of ZO-1 and occludin increased significantly. In HBE cells, Cigarette smoke extract (CSE) increased HDAC6 levels. CAY10603 significantly attenuated the release of TGF-β1 induced by CSE. CAY10603 significantly increased the E-cadherin levels in TGF-β1 treated HBE cells, while concurrently attenuated α-SMA expression. This effect was achieved through the suppression of Smad2 and Smad3 phosphorylation. CAY10603 also inhibited TGF-β1 induced cell migration. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggested that CAY10603 inhibited CS induced small airway remodelling by regulating epithelial barrier dysfunction and reversing EMT via the TGF-β1/Smad2/3 signalling pathway.

Life Sci 2024; 336:122288. [PMID: 38007146 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2023.122288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2023] [Revised: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Protectin DX (PDX), a specialized pro-resolving mediator, is an important pharmaceutical compound with potential antioxidant and inflammation-resolving effects. However, the fundamental mechanism by which PDX's ameliorate chronic inflammatory diseases has not yet been elucidated. This study aims to evaluate the anti-inflammatory properties and PPARγ-mediated mechanisms of PDX in phorbal-12-mysristate-13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated human promonocytic U937 cells. MAIN METHODS We confirmed the effects of PDX on expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines, mediators, and CD14 using conventional PCR, RT-qPCR, ELISA, and flow cytometry. Using western blotting, immunofluorescence, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) determination, we observed that PDX regulated PMA-induced signaling cascades. Molecular docking analysis and a cellular thermal shift assay were conducted to verify the interaction between PDX and the proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) ligand binding domain. Western blotting was then employed to explore the alterations in PPARγ expression levels and validate PDX as a PPARγ full agonist. KEY FINDINGS PDX attenuated protein and mRNA expression levels of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and cyclooxygenase-2 in PMA-treated U937 cells. PDX acts as a PPARγ agonist, exerting a modulating effect on the ROS/JNK/c-Fos signaling pathways. Furthermore, PDX reduced human monocyte differentiation antigen CD14 expression levels. SIGNIFICANCE PPARγ exhibits pro-resolving effects to regulate the excessive inflammation. These results suggest that PDX demonstrates the resolution of inflammation, indicating the potential for therapeutic targeting of chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Guanylate-binding proteins (GBPs) are a class of interferon (IFN)-stimulated genes with well-established activity against viruses, intracellular bacteria, and parasites. The effect of epigenetic modification on GBP activity upon Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection is poorly understood. In this study, we found that Mtb infection can significantly increase the expression of GBPs. Class Ⅰ histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) MS-275 can selectively inhibit GBP1 expression, ultimately affecting the release of inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and suppressing Mtb intracellular survival. Moreover, interfering with GBP1 expression could reduce the production of IL-1β and the level of cleaved-caspase-3 in response to Mtb infection. GBP1 silencing did not affect Mtb survival. Besides, using the bisulfite sequencing PCR, we showed that the CpG site of the GBP1 promoter was hypermethylated, and the methylation status of the GBP1 promoter did not change significantly upon Mtb infection. Overall, this study sheds light on the role of GBP in Mtb infection and provides a link between epigenetics and GBP1 activity.

Abstract
APS (antiphospholipid syndrome) is a systematic autoimmune disease accompanied with venous or arterial thrombosis and poor pregnant manifestations, partly attributing to the successive elevated aPL (antiphospholipid antibodies) and provoked prothrombotic and proinflammatory molecules production. Nowadays, most researches focus on the laboratory detection and clinic features of APS, but its precise etiology remains to be deeply explored. As we all know, the dysfunction of ECs (endothelial cells), monocytes, platelets, trophoblasts and neutrophils are key contributors to APS progression. Especially, their epigenetic variations, mainly including the promoter CpGs methylation, histone PTMs (post-translational modifications) and ncRNAs (noncoding RNAs), result in genes expression or silence engaged in inflammation initiation, thrombosis formation, autoimmune activation and APOs (adverse pregnancy outcomes) in APS. Given the potential of epigenetic markers serving as diagnostic biomarkers or therapeutic targets of APS, and the encouraging advancements in epigenetic drugs are being made. In this review, we would systematically introduce the epigenetic underlying mechanisms for APS progression, comprehensively elucidate the functional mechanisms of epigenetics in boosting ECs, monocytes, platelets, trophoblasts and neutrophils. Lastly, the application of epigenetic alterations for probing novel diagnostic, specific therapeutic and prognostic strategies would be proposed.

Abstract
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is one of the major causes of graft loss after transplantation. Recently, the regulation of B cell differentiation and the prevention of donor-specific antibody (DSA) production have gained increased attention in transplant research. Herein, we established a secondary allogeneic in vivo skin transplant model to study the effects of romidepsin (FK228) on DSA. The survival of grafted skins was monitored daily. The serum levels of DSA and the number of relevant immunocytes in the recipient spleens were evaluated by flow cytometry. Then, we isolated and purified B cells from B6 mouse spleens in vitro by magnetic bead sorting. The B cells were cultured with interleukin-4 (IL-4) and anti-clusters of differentiation 40 (CD40) antibody with or without FK228 treatment. The immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) and IgM levels in the supernatant were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blotting were conducted to determine the corresponding levels of messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression in cultured cells and the recipient spleens. The results showed that FK228 significantly improved the survival of allogeneic skin grafts. Moreover, FK228 inhibited DSA production in the serum along with the suppression of histone deacetylase 1 (HADC1) and HDAC2 and the upregulation of the acetylation of histones H2A and H3. It also inhibited the differentiation of B cells to plasma cells, decreased the transcription of positive regulatory domain-containing 1 (Prdm1) and X-box-binding protein 1 (Xbp1), and decreased the expression of phosphorylated inositol-requiring enzyme 1 α (p-IRE1α), XBP1, and B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein-1 (Blimp-1). In conclusion, FK228 could decrease the production of antibodies by B cells via inhibition of the IRE1α-XBP1 signaling pathway. Thus, FK228 is considered as a promising therapeutic agent for the clinical treatment of AMR.
