Qin Y, Huang Y, Lin W, Huang R, Li K, Han X, Ren Y. Neurotoxic effects induced by flunitrazepam and its metabolites in zebrafish: Oxidative stress, apoptosis, and histone hypoacetylation. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 917:170521. [PMID: 38290676 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
Benzodiazepines (BZDs) have been widely detected in aquatic environments, but their neurotoxic effects and potential mechanisms are still unclear. This study focuses on flunitrazepam (FLZ) and its metabolite, 7-aminoflunitrazepam (7-FLZ), as representative psychotropic BZD. We investigated their neurotoxic effects on adult zebrafish following a 30-day exposure to environmentally relevant concentrations. The findings reveal that exposure to these drugs induces anxiety-like and aggressive behaviors in zebrafish. Additionally, notable morphological damage to brain tissue and mitochondrial structures was observed. Through TUNEL staining, an increase in apoptotic cells was detected in the brain tissue of the exposed group, accompanied by marked elevations in ROS and caspase-3/9 levels. The upregulation of apoptosis-related genes Bax, p53, and Bcl-2 confirmed the occurrence of apoptosis. Furthermore, exposure to the drugs resulted in decreased acetylation levels of brain histones H3 and H4. The upregulation of histone deacetylation enzyme genes (HDAC1, HDAC3, HDAC4, and HDAC6) supported this result. Molecular docking results suggest that compared to 7-FLZ, FLZ has a higher binding affinity with HDAC3 and HDAC4, explaining why it causes lower histone acetylation levels. This study in zebrafish elucidates the neurotoxicity and molecular mechanisms induced by FLZ and 7-FLZ, which is significant for further understanding the impact of BZDs on human health and assessing their ecological risks.

[PMID: 35141965 DOI: 10.1111/ejn.15622] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2021] [Revised: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Sevoflurane (Sevo) is neuroprotective in ischemic injury, but its specific mechanism in the disease from microRNA-203-3p/histone deacetylases 4/B-cell lymphoma 2 (miR-203-3p/HDAC4/Bcl-2) axis asks for a comprehensive explanation. A middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) mouse model was established by nylon suture method. miR-203-3p and HDAC4 expression was measured in mouse brain tissues. The MCAO mice were exposed to Sevo or injected with miR-203-3p- or HDAC4-related plasmids. In response to Sevo treatment or plasmid interference, neurological function, brain pathology, neuronal apoptosis and inflammation were determined. The interactions of miR-203-3p and HDAC4, and HDAC4 and Bcl-2 were verified. MCAO mice presented down-regulated miR-203-3p and up-regulated HDAC4. Sevo improved neurological function, brain pathological damage and reduced neuronal apoptosis and inflammation in MCAO mice, while overexpressing miR-203-3p further enhanced those effects. HDAC4 overexpression antagonized the impacts of miR-203-3p up-regulation on MCAO mice. The targeting relation existed between miR-203-3p and HDAC4, as well as between HDAC4 and Bcl-2. It is clearly elucidated that miR-203-3p enhances the protective effects of Sevo on MCAO mice through elevating Bcl-2 and down-regulating HDAC4, potentially and clinically offering an effective treatment method with Sevo for cerebral ischemic injury.

Abstract
Sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction can lead to death in sepsis. In this case, we targeted to explore in detail the relative mechanism of microRNA (miR)-124-3p in sepsis-induced myocardial injury via the specific protein 1/histone deacetylase 4/hypoxia-inducing factor 1α (SP1/HDAC4/HIF-1α) axis. Septic rats were modeled by cecal ligation puncture while in vitro septic cardiomyocyte H9C2 were induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). miR-124-3p/SP1/HDAC4/HIF-1α expression levels in myocardial tissues of septic rats and LPS-treated H9C2 cells were measured. miR-124-3p overexpression and SP1 silencing assays were implemented on LPS-treated H9C2 cells to explore theirs actions in inflammation, oxidative stress and cell apoptosis. The interactions of miR-124-3p, SP1, and HDAC4 were testified. miR-124-3p was lowly expressed while SP1, HDAC4, and HIF-1α were highly expressed in sepsis. Upregulation of miR-124-3p ameliorated inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis of LPS-treated H9C2 cells. Silencing SP1 improved LPS-induced damage to cardiomyocytes. miR-124-3p targeted SP1 and HDAC4 interacted with SP1. SP1 overexpression antagonized miR-124-3p upregulation-induced improvements in LPS-induced cardiomyocyte damage. This study illustrates that miR-124-3p improves myocardial injury in septic rats through targeted regulation of SP1 to mediate HDAC4/HIF-1α.

Abstract
Sepsis is characterized by an initial hyperinflammatory response, with intense cell activation and cytokine storm. In parallel, a prolonged compensatory anti-inflammatory response, known as immunological tolerance, can lead to immunosuppression. Clinically, this condition is associated with multiple organ failure, resulting in the patient's death. The mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of sepsis are not yet fully understood, but evidence is strong showing that epigenetic changes, including DNA methylation and post-translational modifications of histones, modulate the inflammatory response of sepsis. During the onset of infection, host cells undergo epigenetic changes that favor pathogen survival. Besides, epigenetic changes in essential genes also orchestrate the patient's inflammatory response. In this review, we gathered studies on sepsis and epigenetics to show the central role of epigenetic mechanisms in various aspects of the pathogenesis of sepsis and the potential of epigenetic interventions for its treatment.

Abstract
Survivors of sepsis often develop long-term cognitive impairments. This review aimed at exploring the results of the behavioral tools and tests which have been used to evaluate cognitive dysfunction in different animal models of sepsis. Two independent investigators searched for sepsis- and cognition-related keywords. 6323 publications were found, of which 355 were selected based on their title, and 226 of these were chosen based on manuscript review. LPS was used to induce sepsis in 171 studies, while CLP was used in 55 studies. Inhibitory avoidance was the most widely used method for assessing aversive memory, followed by fear conditioning and continuous multi-trial inhibitory avoidance. With regard to non-aversive memory, most studies used the water maze, open-field, object recognition, Y-maze, plus maze, and radial maze tests. Both CLP and LPS models of sepsis were effective in inducing short- and long-term behavioral impairment. Our findings help elucidate the mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of sepsis-induced cognitive changes, as well as the available methods and tests used to study this in animal models.

Abstract
Sepsis-associated cerebral dysfunction is complex pathophysiology, generated from primary infections that are developed elsewhere in the body. The neonates, elderly population and chronically ill and long-term hospitalized patients are predominantly vulnerable to sepsis and related cerebral damage. Generally, electrophysiological recordings, severity and sedation scales, computerized imaging and spectroscopy techniques are used for its detection and diagnosis. About the underlying mechanisms, enhanced blood-brain barrier permeability and metalloprotease activity, tight junction protein loss and endothelial cell degeneration promote the influx of inflammatory and toxic mediators into the brain, triggering cerebrovascular damage. An altered neutrophil count and phenotype further dysregulate the normal neuroimmune responses and neuroendocrine stability via modulated activation of protein kinase C-delta, nuclear factor kappa-B and sphingolipid signaling. Glial activation, together with pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines and the Toll-like receptor, destabilize the immune system. Moreover, superoxides and hydroperoxides generate oxidative stress and perturb mitochondrial dynamics and ATP synthesis, propagating neuronal injury cycle. Activated mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, characterized by increased caspase-3 and caspase-9 cleavage and Bax/Bcl2 ratio in the hippocampal and cortical neurons, stimulate neurocognitive impairments. Additionally, altered LC3-II/I and P62/SQSTM1, p-mTOR, p-AMPK1 and p-ULK1 levels and dysregulated autophagosome-lysosome fusion decrease neuronal and glial energy homeostasis. The therapies and procedures for attenuating sepsis-induced brain damage include early resuscitation, cerebral blood flow autoregulation, implantable electric vagus nerve stimulation, antioxidants, statins, glucocorticoids, neuroimmune axis modulators and PKCδ inhibitors. The current review enumerates the pathophysiology of sepsis-induced brain damage, its diagnosis, the role of critical inducers and mediators and, ultimately, therapeutic measures attenuating cerebrovascular degeneration.

Abstract
Post-sepsis cognitive impairment is one of the major sequelae in sepsis survivors. Its prevention remains clinically challenging. Here we tested the effects and underlying mechanisms of exogenous β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) on post-sepsis cognitive impairment. We found that subcutaneous administration of BHB increased survival and body weight recovery of sepsis mice and improved learning and memory of sepsis surviving mice in a cecal ligation and perforation-induced sepsis model. Additionally, the improvement of learning and memory of sepsis surviving mice was still detected even if BHB was administrated at the late stage of sepsis. In contrast, glucose solution did not show similar effects. Mechanistically, subcutaneous administration of BHB increased the BHB level of hippocampus, and limited neuroinflammation and neuroplasticity damage in sepsis mice. Intracerebroventricular administration of BHB also alleviated neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment of sepsis surviving mice. In the coculture of neurons, astrocytes, and BV2 cells (a microglial cell line), knocking down the expression of microglial HCA2 (BHB receptor) via a specific shRNA reduced the protection of BHB to lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory response and neuron damage more significantly than knocking down neuronal MCT2 (BHB transporter). These data showed that (1) BHB was a potential pharmacological adjunct treatment for prevention of post-sepsis cognitive impairment and (2) inhibiting neuroinflammation via HCA2 was an important mechanism.

Abstract
Sepsis is a syndrome of life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by dysregulated host responses to infection. Macrophage polarization is a key process involved in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Recent evidence has demonstrated that autophagy participates in the regulation of macrophage polarization in different phases of inflammation. Here, we investigated whether trichostatin A (TSA), a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, promotes the macrophage M2 phenotype by enhancing autophagy to counteract excessive inflammation in a cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) mouse model. TSA stimulation increased the proportions of M2 marker (CD206, CD124 and CD23)-labeled RAW264.7 macrophages. Furthermore, with increasing TSA doses, autophagy was enhanced gradually. Interestingly, the autophagy activator rapamycin (Rap), also known as an mTOR inhibitor, unexpectedly decreased the proportions of M2 marker-labeled macrophages. However, TSA treatment reversed the Rap-induced decreases in CD206-labeled macrophages. Next, we stimulated different groups of RAW264.7 cells with the autophagy inhibitors MHY1485 or 3-methyladenine (3-MA). Inhibition of autophagy at any stage in the process suppressed TSA-induced macrophage M2 polarization, but the effect was not associated with mTOR activity. In vivo, TSA administration promoted peritoneal macrophage M2 polarization, increased LC3 II expression, attenuated sepsis-induced organ (lung, liver and kidney) injury, and altered systemic inflammatory cytokine secretion. However, 3-MA abolished the protective effects of TSA in CLP mice and decreased the number of M2 peritoneal macrophages. Therefore, TSA promotes the macrophage M2 phenotype by enhancing autophagy to reduce systemic inflammation and ultimately improves the survival of mice with polymicrobial sepsis.

Abstract
Sepsis has a complex pathophysiology in which both excessive and refractory inflammatory responses are hallmark features. Pro-inflammatory cytokine responses during the early stages are responsible for significant endothelial dysfunction, loss of endothelial integrity, and organ failure. In addition, it is now well-established that a substantial number of sepsis survivors experience ongoing immunological derangement and immunosuppression following a septic episode. The underpinning mechanisms of these phenomena are incompletely understood yet they contribute to a significant proportion of sepsis-associated mortality. Epigenetic mechanisms including DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs, have an increasingly clear role in modulating inflammatory and other immunological processes. Recent evidence suggests epigenetic mechanisms are extensively perturbed as sepsis progresses, and particularly play a role in endothelial dysfunction and immunosuppression. Whilst therapeutic modulation of the epigenome is still in its infancy, there is substantial evidence from animal models that this approach could reap benefits. In this review, we summarize research elucidating the role of these mechanisms in several aspects of sepsis pathophysiology including tissue injury and immunosuppression. We also evaluate pre-clinical evidence for the use of "epi-therapies" in the treatment of poly-microbial sepsis.

The Protective Effects and the Involved Mechanisms of Tanshinone IIA on Sepsis-Induced Brain Damage in Mice. Inflammation 2019; 42:354-364. [PMID: 30255286 DOI: 10.1007/s10753-018-0899-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
To evaluate the protective effect of tanshinone IIA on sepsis using a mouse model as well as to preliminarily explore the mechanism behind its application. The mouse model of sepsis was established using the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) method. Eighty mice were randomly divided into four groups: Sham operation group (Sham group), model group (CLP group), tanshinone IIA group (DS group), and dexamethasone group (DEX group). ELISA method was used to detect the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the hippocampal tissue of mouse. Western blot method was used to detect the expression levels of PSD-95, SYP, and Iba-1 in the hippocampus tissue. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression level and distribution of astrocytes (GFAP antibody). Morris water maze test was used to determine the ability of learning and memory in mice. Tanshinone IIA could improve the postoperative survival and 7-day survival rate in the septic mice after operation, which shortens the escape latency and increases the number of crossing platform in the septic mice. It also reduces the expression of TNF-α, IL-6, and Iba-1 in the peripheral blood/hippocampus and the number of astrocytes in hippocampal CA3 area after 7 days of sepsis in mice. However, tanshinone IIA increases the expression levels of SYP and PSD-95 in the hippocampus of septic mice on the seventh day after operation. Tanshinone IIA has a protective effect on the nerve of septic mice, and its mechanism may be related to the anti-inflammatory effects of the peripheral and hippocampal parts as well as inhibiting the over-activation of astrocytes and microglia.

Abstract
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory disease resulting from an infection. This disorder affects 750 000 people annually in the United States and has a 62% rehospitalization rate. Septic symptoms range from typical flu-like symptoms (eg, headache, fever) to a multifactorial syndrome known as sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE). Patients with SAE exhibit an acute altered mental status and often have higher mortality and morbidity. In addition, many sepsis survivors are also burdened with long-term cognitive impairment. The mechanisms through which sepsis initiates SAE and promotes long-term cognitive impairment in septic survivors are poorly understood. Due to its unique role as an interface between the brain and the periphery, numerous studies support a regulatory role for the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in the progression of acute and chronic brain dysfunction. In this review, we discuss the current body of literature which supports the BBB as a nexus which integrates signals from the brain and the periphery in sepsis. We highlight key insights on the mechanisms that contribute to the BBB's role in sepsis which include neuroinflammation, increased barrier permeability, immune cell infiltration, mitochondrial dysfunction, and a potential barrier role for tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP). Finally, we address current drug treatments (eg, antimicrobials and intravenous immunoglobulins) for sepsis and their potential outcomes on brain function. A comprehensive understanding of these mechanisms may enable clinicians to target specific aspects of BBB function as a therapeutic tool to limit long-term cognitive impairment in sepsis survivors.

Abstract
Sepsis is characterized by dysregulated gene expression, provoking a hyper-inflammatory response occurring in parallel to a hypo-inflammatory reaction. This is often associated with multi-organ failure, leading to the patient’s death. Therefore, reprogramming of these pro- and anti-inflammatory, as well as immune-response genes which are involved in acute systemic inflammation, is a therapy approach to prevent organ failure and to improve sepsis outcomes. Considering epigenetic, i.e., reversible, modifications of chromatin, not altering the DNA sequence as one tool to adapt the expression profile, inhibition of factors mediating these changes is important. Acetylation of histones by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and initiating an open-chromatin structure leading to its active transcription is counteracted by histone deacetylases (HDACs). Histone deacetylation triggers a compact nucleosome structure preventing active transcription. Hence, inhibiting the activity of HDACs by specific inhibitors can be used to restore the expression profile of the cells. It can be assumed that HDAC inhibitors will reduce the expression of pro-, as well as anti-inflammatory mediators, which blocks sepsis progression. However, decreased cytokine expression might also be unfavorable, because it can be associated with decreased bacterial clearance.

Abstract
Acute brain dysfunction associated with sepsis is a serious complication that results in morbidity and mortality. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) treatment is known to alleviate behavioral deficits in the experimentally induced model of sepsis. To delineate the mechanisms by which IVIg treatment prevents neuronal dysfunction, an array of immunological and apoptosis markers was investigated. Our results suggest that IVIgG and IgGAM administration ameliorates neuronal dysfunction and behavioral deficits by reducing apoptotic cell death and glial cell proliferation. IgGAM treatment might suppress classical complement pathway by reducing C5a activity and proapoptotic NF-κB and Bax expressions, thereby, inhibiting major inflammation and apoptosis cascades. Future animal model experiments performed with specific C5aR and NF-κB agonists/antagonists or C5aR-deficient mice might more robustly disclose the significance of these pathways. C5a, C5aR, and NF-κB, which were shown to be the key molecules in brain injury pathogenesis in sepsis, might also be utilized as potential targets for future treatment trials of septic encephalopathy.

Abstract
Septic encephalopathy is a frequent complication of sepsis, but there are few studies examining the role of microRNAs (miRs) in its pathogenesis. In this study, a miR-219 mimic was transfected into rat hippocampal neurons to model miR-219 overexpression. A protective effect of miR-219 was observed for glutamate-induced neurotoxicity of rat hippocampal neurons, and an underlying mechanism involving calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II γ (CaMKIIγ) was demonstrated. miR-219 and CaMKIIγ mRNA expression induced by glutamate in hippocampal neurons was determined by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). After neurons were transfected with miR-219 mimic, effects on cell viability and apoptosis were measured by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometry. In addition, a luciferase reporter gene system was used to confirm CaMKIIγ as a target gene of miR-219. Western blot assay and rescue experiments were also utilized to detect CaMKIIγ expression and further verify that miR-219 in hippocampal neurons exerted its effect through regulation of CaMKIIγ. MTT assay and qRT-PCR results revealed obvious decreases in cell viability and miR-219 expression after glutamate stimulation, while CaMKIIγ mRNA expression was increased. MTT, flow cytometry, and caspase-3 activity assays showed that miR-219 overexpression could elevate glutamate-induced cell viability, and reduce cell apoptosis and caspase-3 activity. Moreover, luciferase CaMKIIγ-reporter activity was remarkably decreased by co-transfection with miR-219 mimic, and the results of a rescue experiment showed that CaMKIIγ overexpression could reverse the biological effects of miR-219. Collectively, these findings verify that miR-219 expression was decreased in glutamate-induced neurons, CaMKIIγ was a target gene of miR-219, and miR-219 alleviated glutamate-induced neuronal excitotoxicity by negatively controlling CaMKIIγ expression.

Abstract
Sepsis is systemic inflammatory response syndrome with a life-threatening organ dysfunction that is caused by an unbalanced host immune response in an attempt to eliminate invasive microorganisms. We posed questions, "Does sepsis survivor patients have increased risk of neuropsychiatric manifestations?" and "What is the mechanism by which sepsis induces long-term neurological sequelae, particularly substantial cognitive function decline in survivor patients and in pre-clinical sepsis models?" The studies were identified by searching PubMed/MEDLINE (National Library of Medicine), PsycINFO, EMBASE (Ovid), LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature), IBECS (Bibliographical Index in Spanish in Health Sciences), and Web of Science databases for peer-reviewed journals that were published until January 2018. A total of 3555 papers were included in the primary screening. After that, 130 articles were selected for the study. A number of pre-clinical studies have shown an auto amplification of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in the first few hours after sepsis induction, also increased blood-brain barrier permeability, elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinases, increased levels of damage-associated molecular patterns were demonstrated. In addition, the rodents presented long-term cognitive impairment in different behavioral tasks that were prevented by blocking the mechanism of action of these inflammatory mediators. Clinical studies have showed that sepsis survivors presented increased bodily symptoms such as fatigue, pain, visual disturbances, gastrointestinal problems, and neuropsychiatric problems compared to before sepsis. Sepsis leaves the survivors with an aftermath of physiological, neuropsychiatric, and functional impairment. Systematic review registration: CRD42017071755.

Abstract
Acute brain dysfunction is a frequent complication in sepsis patients and is associated with long‑term neurocognitive consequences and increased mortality, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Emerging evidence has suggested that β2‑microglobulin [a component of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules] is involved in cognitive dysfunction in various neurological diseases. Therefore, the present study tested the hypothesis that β2‑microglobulin in the brain also mediates sepsis‑induced cognitive impairment. In the present study, wild‑type and antigen processing 1 (Tap1)‑deficient mice (Tap1‑/‑) were subjected to cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Survival rate, cognitive function, and biochemical analysis were performed at the indicated time points. The data revealed that CLP induced anxiety‑like behavior and impaired hippocampal‑dependent contextual memory in wild‑type mice, which was accompanied by hippocampal microglial activation, increased level of interleukin‑1β, and decreased concentrations of brain derived neurotrophic factor and postsynaptic density protein 95. Notably, it was demonstrated that Tap1‑/‑ mice with reduced cell surface expression of MHC I protected mice from anxiety‑like behavior and impaired hippocampal‑dependent contextual memory and reversed most of these biochemical parameters following sepsis development. In summary, the results of the present study suggest that β2‑microglobulin negatively regulates cognitive impairment in an animal model of sepsis induced by CLP.

Abstract
Manganese neurotoxicity presents with Parkinson-like symptoms, with degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the basal ganglia as the principal pathological feature. Manganese neurotoxicity studies may contribute to a better understanding of the mechanism of Parkinson's disease. Here, we examined the effects of manganese on histone acetylation, a major epigenetic change in chromatin that can regulate gene expression, chromatin remodelling, cell cycle progression, DNA repair and apoptosis. In this study, we found that manganese chloride (MnCl2) may significantly suppress the acetylation of histone H3 and H4 in PC12 cells and SHSY5Y cells in a time-dependent manner. Then we tested the role of manganese chloride on histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC). The results showed that MnCl2 increased the activity of HDAC but decreased that of HAT in PC12 cells. Further experiments showed that MnCl2 selectively increased the expression levels of HDAC3 and HDAC4 rather than HDAC1 and HDAC2, but decreased that of HAT in PC12 cells and SHSY5Y cells. Pretreatment with the HAT inhibitor anacardic acid (AA) enhanced manganese-induced decrease in cell viability and apoptosis, but HDAC inhibition by TSA drug had an opposite effect in PC12 cells. Collectively, MnCl2 inhibited the acetylation of core histones in cell culture models of PD, and that inhibition of HDAC activity by TSA protects against manganese-induced cell death, indicating that histone acetylation may represent key epigenetic changes in manganese-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Background Intravenous (IV) immunoglobulin (Ig) treatment is known to alleviate behavioral deficits and increase survival in the experimentally induced model of sepsis. To delineate the mechanisms by which IVIg treatment prevents neuronal dysfunction, an array of immunological and apoptosis markers was investigated. Methods Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation perforation (CLP) in rats. The animals were divided into five groups: sham, control, CLP + saline, CLP + immunoglobulin G (IgG) (250 mg/kg, iv), and CLP + immunoglobulins enriched with immunoglobulin M (IgGAM) (250 mg/kg, iv). Blood and brain samples were taken in two sets of experiments to see the early (24 h) and late (10 days) effects of treatment. Total complement activity, complement 3 (C3), and soluble complement C5b-9 levels were measured in the sera of rats using ELISA-based methods. Cerebral complement, complement receptor, NF-κB, Bax, and Bcl-2 expressions were analyzed by western blot and/or RT-PCR methods. Immune cell infiltration and gliosis were examined by immunohistochemistry using CD3, CD4, CD8, CD11b, CD19, and glial fibrillary acidic protein antibodies. Apoptotic neuronal death was investigated by TUNEL staining. Results IVIgG and IgGAM administration significantly reduced systemic complement activity and cerebral C5a and C5a receptor expression. Likewise, both treatment methods reduced proapoptotic NF-κB and Bax expressions in the brain. IVIgG and IgGAM treatment induced considerable amelioration in glial cell proliferation and neuronal apoptosis which were increased in non-treated septic rats. Conclusions We suggest that IVIgG and IgGAM administration ameliorates neuronal dysfunction and behavioral deficits by reducing apoptotic cell death and glial cell proliferation. In both treatment methods, these beneficial effects might be mediated through reduction of anaphylatoxic C5a activity and subsequent inhibition of inflammation and apoptosis pathways.

Abstract
Severe sepsis remains a worldwide threat, not only in industrialized countries, due to their aging population, but also in developing countries where there still are numerous cases of neonatal and puerperal sepsis. Tools for early diagnosis, a prerequisite for rapid and appropriate antibiotic therapy, are still required. In this review, we highlight some recent developments in our understanding of the associated systemic inflammatory response that help deciphering pathophysiology (e.g., epigenetic, miRNA, regulatory loops, compartmentalization, apoptosis and synergy) and discuss some of the consequences of sepsis (e.g., immune status, neurological and muscular alterations). We also emphasize the challenge to better define animal models and discuss past failures in clinical investigations in order to define new efficient therapies.

Abstract
West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, is the leading cause of viral encephalitis in the United States. Despite efforts to control the spread of WNV, there has been an increase in the number of outbreaks and clinical cases with neurological problems. There are no antiviral compounds currently in trials for WNV. NITD008 is an adenosine analogue inhibitor that interrupts the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of flaviviruses. Previous studies demonstrated NITD008 as a potent antiviral for dengue virus, however this drug was associated with preclinical toxicity. The ability of NITD008 to block WNV replication is only shown in Vero cells. Neuroinflammation is also a major cause of the WNV-associated pathology, therefore we evaluated the effect of NITD008 and a newly characterized anti-inflammatory drug vorinostat (SAHA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, on WNV replication and disease progression in a mouse model. When administered at 10 and 25mg/kg at days 1-6 after WNV infection in C57BL/6 mice, NITD008 conferred complete protection from clinical symptoms and death, which correlated with reduced viral load in the serum and restriction of virus-CNS entry. Delay of NITD008 treatment to days 3-6 and days 5-9 after infection, when WNV replication was high in the periphery and brain, resulted in the gradual loss of protection against WNV infection. However, co-treatment with SAHA and NITD008 during the CNS phase of disease improved disease outcome significantly by reducing inflammation and neuronal death. Our results support potential synergistic effect of combination therapy of NITD008 with SAHA for the treatment of WNV encephalitis.

Abstract
Epigenetic mechanisms are involved in normal behavior and are implicated in several brain neurodegenerative conditions, psychiatric and inflammatory diseases as well. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that sepsis lead to an imbalance in acetylation of histones and that histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) can reverse this condition. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of a microinjection of sodium butyrate (SB, HDACi) into cerebral ventricle on aversive memory in rats submitted to the sepsis. Rats were given a single intraventricular injection of artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) or SB and immediately after the stereotaxic surgery and the drug infusion, the animals were subjected to cecal ligation and perforation (CLP). The animals were killed twenty four hours or ten days after sepsis induction and the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, striatum and cortex were obtained to the determination of histone deacetylase activity. In a separate cohort of animals 10 days after sepsis induction, it was performed the inhibitory avoidance task. SB administration was able to reverse the impairment in aversive memory and inhibited the HDAC activity in prefrontal cortex and hippocampus 10 days after CLP. These support a role for an epigenetic mechanism in the long-term cognitive impairments observed in sepsis survivors animals.

Abstract
For the past decade protein acetylation has been shown to be a crucial post-transcriptional modification involved in the regulation of protein functions. Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) mediate acetylation of histones which results in the nucleosomal relaxation associated with gene expression. The reverse reaction, histone deacetylation, is mediated by histone deacetylases (HDACs) leading to chromatin condensation followed by transcriptional repression. HDACs are divided into distinct classes: I, IIa, IIb, III, and IV, on the basis of size and sequence homology, as well as formation of distinct repressor complexes. Implications of HDACs in many diseases, such as cancer, heart failure, and neurodegeneration, have identified these molecules as unique and attractive therapeutic targets. The emergence of HDAC4 among the members of class IIa family as a major player in synaptic plasticity raises important questions about its functions in the brain. The characterization of HDAC4 specific substrates and molecular partners in the brain will not only provide a better understanding of HDAC4 biological functions but also might help to develop new therapeutic strategies to target numerous malignancies. In this review we highlight and summarize recent achievements in understanding the biological role of HDAC4 in neurodegenerative processes.

Abstract
The modern era of sepsis management is characterised by a growing number of patients who survive in the short term and are discharged from hospital. Increasing evidence suggests that these survivors exhibit long-term neurological sequelae, particularly substantial declines in cognitive function. The exact prevalence and outcomes of these neuropsychological sequelae are unclear. The mechanisms by which sepsis induces cognitive dysfunction probably include vascular injuries and neuroinflammation that are mediated by systemic metabolism disorders and overwhelming inflammation, a disrupted blood-brain barrier, oxidative stress, and severe microglial activation, particularly within the limbic system. Interventions targeting the blood-brain barrier, glial activation, and oxidative stress have shown promise in prevention of cognitive dysfunction in various experimental models of sepsis. The next step should be to translate these favourable effects into positive clinical results.
