Simulated hypoxia modulates P2X7 receptor function in mice peritoneal macrophages. Int Immunopharmacol 2022; 110:109062. [PMID: 35863257 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2022.109062] [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: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The inflammatory focus is similar to the tumor microenvironment, which contains a complex milieu with immune cells and macrophages. The accumulation of cells promotes local pH and O2 tension decline (hypoxia). Local O2 tension decline activates hypoxia-inducible factor α and β (HIF-1α and HIF-1β adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release. ATP activates the P2X7 receptor and modulates ischemic/hypoxic conditions. Similarly, α1α may regulate P2X7 receptor expression in the hypoxic microenvironment. Therefore, we investigated P2X7 receptor function under simulated hypoxic conditions by pretreating peritoneal macrophages with mitochondrial electron transport chain complex inhibitors (simulated hypoxia). Treatment with mitochondrial electron transport chain complex inhibitors until three hours of exposure did not cause LDH release. Additionally, mitochondrial electron transport chain complex inhibitors increased ATP-induced P2X7 receptor function without being able to directly activate this receptor. Other P2 receptor subtypes do not appear to participate in this mechanism. Simulated hypoxia augmented HIF-1α levels and suppressed HIF-1α and P2X7 receptor antagonists. Similarly, simulated hypoxia increased ATP-induced dye uptake and inhibited HIF-1α antagonists. Another factor activated in simulated hypoxic conditions was the intracellular P2X7 receptor regulator PIP2. Treatment with HIF-1α agonists increased PIP2 levels and reversed the effects of HIF-1α and P2X7 receptor antagonists. Additionally, the improved ATP-induced dye uptake caused by the simulated hypoxia stimulus was inhibited by P2X7 receptor and PIP2 antagonists. Therefore, simulated hypoxia may augment P2X7 receptor activity for a pathway dependent on HIF-1α and PIP2 activation.

Abstract
Exposure of astrocytes to oxidative stress induces an increase of intracellular labile zinc and a decrease of functional expression of P2X7 receptorviaits translocation from the plasma membrane to the cytosol by altering the expression profile of P2X7 receptor and its splice variants, leading to a decrease of their engulfing activity.

The effects of NONRATT021972 lncRNA siRNA on PC12 neuronal injury mediated by P2X7 receptor after exposure to oxygen-glucose deprivation. Purinergic Signal 2016; 12:479-87. [PMID: 27100355 DOI: 10.1007/s11302-016-9513-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2015] [Accepted: 04/14/2016] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) participates in signal transmission by acting on P2X receptors, and the P2X7 receptor is involved in the pathophysiological changes of ischemic injury. The PC12 cell line is a popular model system to study sympathetic neuronal function. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are highly expressed in the nervous system and serve as regulatory RNAs. In this study, the effects of NONRATT021972 lncRNA siRNA on P2X7-mediated PC12 neuronal injury after exposure to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) were investigated. Our results showed that the viability of PC12 cells cultured with OGD or the P2X7 agonist BzATP was significantly decreased. Treatment with NONRATT021972 siRNA reversed the decreased viability of PC12 cells under OGD conditions. The upregulated P2X7 mRNA and protein levels in PC12 cells under OGD conditions or BzATP treatment were significantly decreased when pretreated with NONRATT021972 siRNA. Moreover, NONRATT021972 siRNA treatment effectively suppressed the increase in [Ca(2+)]i induced by OGD or P2X7 agonists (ATP or BzATP) in PC12 cells. Therefore, treatment with NONRATT021972 siRNA may decrease sympathetic neuronal injury induced by ischemia.

Abstract
Diabetic neuropathy (DNP) is a frequent chronic complication of diabetes mellitus with potentially life-threatening outcomes. High glucose and elevated free fatty acids (FFAs) have been recently recognized as major causes of nervous system damage in diabetes. Our previous study has indicated extracellular stimuli, such as high glucose and/or FFA stress, may activate the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway and induce a p38 MAPK-dependent sensitization of the P2X7 receptor and release of inflammatory factors in PC12 cells, while the mechanisms underlying remain to be elucidated. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in diverse biological processes, including activation of a series of pathway signalings. Here, we showed combined high D-glucose and FFAs (HGHF) induced an increment of lncRNA-NONRATT021972 (NONCODE ID, nc021972) in PC12 cells. Nc021972 small interference RNA (siRNA) alleviated HGHF-induced activation of p38 MAPK, expression of the P2X7 receptor, and [Ca(2+)]i increment upon P2X7 receptor activation. Further experiments showed that there existed a crosstalk between nc021972 and the p38 MAPK signaling pathway. Inhibition of p38 MAPK signaling decreased nc021972-induced expression of the P2X7 receptor and [Ca(2+)]i increment upon P2X7 receptor activation. Also, nc021972 siRNA inhibited HGHF-induced PC12 release of TNF-α and IL-6 and rescued decreased cell viability mediated by the P2X7 receptor. Therefore, inhibition of nc021972 may serve as a novel therapeutic strategy for diabetes complicated with nervous inflammatory diseases.
