Abstract
Grass carp hemorrhagic disease is a significant problem in grass carp aquaculture. It releases highly oxidizing hemoglobin (Hb) into tissues, induces rapid autooxidation, and subsequently discharges cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the mechanism underlying Hb damage to the teleost remains unclear. Here, we employed ferrylHb and heme to incubate L8824 (grass carp liver) cells and quantitatively analyzed the corresponding molecular regulation using the RNA-seq method. Based on the RNA-seq analysis data, after 12 h of incubation of the L8824 cells with ferrylHb, a total of 3738 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, 1824 of which were upregulated, and 1914 were downregulated. A total of 4434 DEGs were obtained in the heme treated group, with 2227 DEGs upregulated and 2207 DEGs downregulated. KEGG enrichment analysis data revealed that the incubation of ferrylHb and heme significantly activated the pathways related to Oxidative Phosphorylation, Autophagy, Mitophagy and Protein Processing in Endoplasmic Reticulum. The genes associated with NF-κB, autophagy and apoptosis pathways were selected for further validation by quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). The results were consistent with the RNA-seq data. Taken together, the incubation of Hb and heme induced the molecular regulation of L8824, which consequently led to programmed cell death through multiple pathways.

Abstract
Severe presentations of malaria emerge as Plasmodium (P.) spp. parasites invade and lyse red blood cells (RBC), producing extracellular hemoglobin (HB), from which labile heme is released. Here, we tested whether scavenging of extracellular HB and/or labile heme, by haptoglobin (HP) and/or hemopexin (HPX), respectively, counter the pathogenesis of severe presentations of malaria. We found that circulating labile heme is an independent risk factor for cerebral and non-cerebral presentations of severe P. falciparum malaria in children. Labile heme was negatively correlated with circulating HP and HPX, which were, however, not risk factors for severe P. falciparum malaria. Genetic Hp and/or Hpx deletion in mice led to labile heme accumulation in plasma and kidneys, upon Plasmodium infection This was associated with higher incidence of mortality and acute kidney injury (AKI) in ageing but not adult Plasmodium-infected mice, and was corroborated by an inverse correlation between heme and HPX with serological markers of AKI in P. falciparum malaria. In conclusion, HP and HPX act in an age-dependent manner to prevent the pathogenesis of severe presentation of malaria in mice and presumably in humans.

Abstract
Haemolytic disorders, such as sickle cell disease, are accompanied by the release of high amounts of labile heme into the intravascular compartment resulting in the induction of proinflammatory and prothrombotic complications in affected patients. In addition to the relevance of heme-regulated proteins from the complement and blood coagulation systems, activation of the TLR4 signalling pathway by heme was ascribed a crucial role in the progression of these pathological processes. Heme binding to the TLR4-MD2 complex has been proposed recently, however, essential mechanistic information of the processes at the molecular level, such as heme-binding kinetics, the heme-binding capacity and the respective heme-binding sites (HBMs) is still missing. We report the interaction of TLR4, MD2 and the TLR4-MD2 complex with heme and the consequences thereof by employing biochemical, spectroscopic, bioinformatic and physiologically relevant approaches. Heme binding occurs transiently through interaction with up to four HBMs in TLR4, two HBMs in MD2 and at least four HBMs in their complex. Functional studies highlight that mutations of individual HBMs in TLR4 preserve full receptor activation by heme, suggesting that heme interacts with TLR4 through different binding sites independently of MD2. Furthermore, we confirm and extend the major role of TLR4 for heme-mediated cytokine responses in human immune cells.

Abstract
Synthesis and biological evaluation of silicon-incorporated phytocannabinoids with improved pharmacological properties toward inflammatory diseases are described. The synthesized sila-analogues 15a, 15b, and 15c displayed potent inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 at 10 μM. Further, the release of heme during the lysis of red blood cells in hemolytic diseases is one of the major reasons for inflammation associated with the pathophysiology of these diseases. Due to scanty literature related to inhibitors of heme-mediated induction of the NLRP3 inflammasome, we decided to test these compounds against it. Compounds 15a and 15c significantly inhibited the heme-mediated induction of the NLRP3 inflammasome at a concentration of 0.1 μM. Interestingly, the sila-CBD derivatives also showed higher metabolic stability in contrast to their carbon analogues. Anti-NLRP3 inflammasome activity of compounds 15a and 15c were further validated in vivo against heme-mediated peritoneal inflammation. The anti-inflammatory activity of these compounds could be useful in treating diseases such as sickle cell anemia and thalassemia involving the hemolysis-mediated activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Abstract
Sterile inflammation is the immune response to damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) released during cell death in the absence of foreign pathogens. In the setting of solid organ transplantation, ischemia-reperfusion injury results in mitochondria-mediated production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species that are a major cause of uncontrolled cell death and release of various DAMPs from the graft tissue. When properly regulated, the immune response initiated by DAMP-sensing serves as means of damage control and is necessary for initiation of recovery pathways and re-establishment of homeostasis. In contrast, a dysregulated or overt sterile inflammatory response can inadvertently lead to further injury through recruitment of immune cells, innate immune cell activation, and sensitization of the adaptive immune system. In liver transplantation, sterile inflammation may manifest as early graft dysfunction, acute graft failure, or increased risk of immunosuppression-resistant rejection. Understanding the mechanisms of the development of sterile inflammation in the setting of liver transplantation is crucial for finding reliable biomarkers that predict graft function, and for development of therapeutic approaches to improve long-term transplant outcomes. Here, we discuss the recent advances that have been made to elucidate the early signs of sterile inflammation and extent of damage from it. We also discuss new therapeutics that may be effective in quelling the detrimental effects of sterile inflammation.

Abstract
Chemoresistance remains the foremost challenge in cancer therapy. Targeting reactive oxygen species (ROS) manipulation is a promising strategy in cancer treatment since tumor cells present high levels of intracellular ROS, which makes them more vulnerable to further ROS elevation than normal cells. Nevertheless, dynamic redox evolution and adaptation of tumor cells are capable of counteracting therapy-induced oxidative stress, which leads to chemoresistance. Hence, exploring the cytoprotective mechanisms of tumor cells is urgently needed to overcome chemoresistance. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), a rate-limiting enzyme of heme degradation, acts as a crucial antioxidant defense and cytoprotective molecule in response to cellular stress. Recently, emerging evidence indicated that ROS detoxification and oxidative stress tolerance owing to the antioxidant function of HO-1 contribute to chemoresistance in various cancers. Enhanced HO-1 expression or enzymatic activity was revealed to promote apoptosis resistance and activate protective autophagy, which also involved in the development of chemoresistance. Moreover, inhibition of HO-1 in multiple cancers was identified to reversing chemoresistance or improving chemosensitivity. Here, we summarize the most recent advances regarding the antioxidant, antiapoptotic, and pro-autophagy properties of HO-1 in mediating chemoresistance, highlighting HO-1 as a novel target for overcoming chemoresistance and improving the prognosis of cancer patients.

Abstract
The use of cytokine adsorption is an emerging treatment for inflammatory diseases in human medicine. There are few reports of this treatment modality in veterinary medicine and no reports of the use of a cytokine adsorbent for immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA). These case reports illustrate the use of a cytokine adsorbent as an adjunctive treatment during therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE). All dogs were unresponsive to conventional treatment or were severely affected by rapid hemolysis of red blood cells. The aim was to treat all dogs with three sequential TPE sessions; however, one dog died before completion of three sessions and one dog required additional sessions. Preliminary evidence indicates that the use of a cytokine adsorption is well tolerated and can be considered as an adjunct in the management of IMHA that is severe or refractory to traditional treatment.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a cytoprotective endogenous gas that is ubiquitously produced by the stress response enzyme heme-oxygenase. Being a gas, CO rapidly diffuses through tissues and binds to hemoglobin (Hb) increasing carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) levels. COHb can be formed in erythrocytes or in plasma from cell-free Hb. Herein, it is discussed as to whether endogenous COHb is an innocuous and inevitable metabolic waste product or not, and it is hypothesized that COHb has a biological role. In the present review, literature data are presented to support this hypothesis based on two main premises: (i) there is no direct correlation between COHb levels and CO toxicity, and (ii) COHb seems to have a direct cytoprotective and antioxidant role in erythrocytes and in hemorrhagic models in vivo. Moreover, CO is also an antioxidant by generating COHb, which protects against the pro-oxidant damaging effects of cell-free Hb. Up to now, COHb has been considered as a sink for both exogenous and endogenous CO generated during CO intoxication or heme metabolism, respectively. Hallmarking COHb as an important molecule with a biological (and eventually beneficial) role is a turning point in CO biology research, namely in CO intoxication and CO cytoprotection.

Abstract
Overactive inflammatory responses are central to the pathophysiology of many hemolytic conditions including sickle cell disease. Excessive hemolysis leads to elevated serum levels of heme due to saturation of heme scavenging mechanisms. Extracellular heme has been shown to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome, leading to activation of caspase-1 and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18. Heme also activates the non-canonical inflammasome pathway, which may contribute to NLRP3 inflammasome formation and leads to pyroptosis, a type of inflammatory cell death. Some clinical studies indicate there is a benefit to blocking the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in patients with sickle cell disease and other hemolytic conditions. However, a thorough understanding of the mechanisms of heme-induced inflammasome activation is needed to fully leverage this pathway for clinical benefit. This review will explore the mechanisms of heme-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation and the role of this pathway in hemolytic conditions including sickle cell disease.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains the major cause of disability and mortality worldwide due to the persistent neuroinflammation and neuronal death induced by TBI. Among them, pyroptosis, a specific type of programmed cell death (PCD) triggered by inflammatory signals, plays a significant part in the pathological process after TBI. Inhibition of neuroinflammation and pyroptosis is considered a possible strategy for the treatment of TBI. In our previous study, exogenous hydrogen sulfide(H2S) exerted a neuroprotective effect after TBI. Here, we developed a surface-fill H2S-releasing silk fibroin (SF) hydrogel (H2S@SF hydrogel) to achieve small-dose local administration and avoid volatile and toxic side effects. We used a controlled cortical impact (CCI) to establish a mild TBI model in mice to examine the effect of H2S@SF hydrogel on TBI-induced pyroptosis. We found that H2S@SF hydrogel inhibited the expression of H2S synthase in neurons after TBI and significantly inhibited TBI-induced neuronal pyroptosis. In addition, immunofluorescence staining results showed that the necroptosis protein receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) partially colocalized with the pyroptosis protein Gasdermin D (GSDMD) in the same cells. H2S@SF hydrogel can also inhibit the expression of the necroptosis protein. Moreover, H2S@SF hydrogel also alleviates brain edema and the degree of neurodegeneration in the acute phase of TBI. The neuroprotective effect of H2S@SF hydrogel was further confirmed by wire-grip test, open field test, Morris water maze, beam balance test, radial arm maze, tail suspension, and forced swimming test. Lastly, we also measured spared tissue volume, reactive astrocytes and activated microglia to demonstrate H2S@SF hydrogel impacts on long-term prognosis in TBI. Our study provides a new theoretical basis for the treatment of H2S after TBI and the clinical application of H2S@SF hydrogel. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Silk fibroin (SF) hydrogel controls the release of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to inhibit neuronal pyroptosis and neuroinflammation in injured brain tissue. In this study, we synthesized a surface-fill H2S-releasing silk fibroin hydrogel, which could slowly release H2S to reshape the homeostasis of endogenous H2S in injured neurons and inhibit neuronal pyroptosis in a mouse model of traumatic brain injury. Meanwhile, H2S@SF hydrogel could alleviate brain edema and the degree of neurodegeneration, improve motor dysfunction, anxious behavior and memory impairment caused by TBI, reduce tissue loss and ameliorate neuroinflammation. Our study provides a new theoretical basis for the treatment of H2S after TBI and the clinical application of H2S@SF hydrogel.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 131:637-645. [PMID: 36272521 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2022.10.029] [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: 06/07/2022] [Revised: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Bacteria or viral outbreaks can cause tilapia hemorrhage, ensuring considerable volume of hemoglobin (Hb) into the tissue. However, the hemoglobin toxicity on tissue and high doses also effect on tissue this phenomena is still under consideration. Therefore, current study exploited Nile tilapia kidney (NTK) cells to deeply expose the toxic effect of Hb on NTK cells. Toxicity of Hb on NTK cells was determined in terms of cells growth, expression of iron metabolism and inflammation-related genes, consequently examined antioxidant-related enzymes genes expression, intracellular iron and reactive oxygen species (ROS) contents, and apoptosis-related genes expression. The results showed that Hb and heme significantly inhibited NTK cells growth and up-regulated iron metabolism-related genes expression in different degrees. The Hb and heme activated the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor-α; IL-1β, interleukin 1β; IL-6, interleukin 6), the anti-inflammatory factor (IL-10, interleukin 10) and the chemotactic factors (IL-4, interleukin 4; IL-8, interleukin 8) through NF-κB pathway, meanwhile activated the expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px). Moreover, the Hb significantly increased intracellular iron and ROS contents while the expression of apoptosis-related genes was significantly activated by both Hb and heme. Current investigation suggested that high oxidative activity of Hb could activate iron metabolism- and inflammation-related genes expression, and increase intracellular iron and ROS levels, lead to up-regulated the expression of apoptosis genes in NTK cells.

Abstract
Hemolysis, as a result of disease or exposure to biomaterials, is characterized by excess amounts of cell-free heme intravascularly and consumption of the protective heme-scavenger proteins in plasma. The liberation of heme has been linked to the activation of inflammatory systems, including the complement system, through alternative pathway activation. Here, we investigated the impact of heme on the regulatory function of the complement system. Heme dose-dependently inhibited factor I-mediated degradation of soluble and surface-bound C3b, when incubated in plasma or buffer with complement regulatory proteins. Inhibition occurred with factor H and soluble complement receptor 1 as co-factors, and the mechanism was linked to the direct heme-interaction with factor I. The heme-scavenger protein hemopexin was the main contaminant in purified factor I preparations. This led us to identify that hemopexin formed a complex with factor I in normal human plasma. These complexes were significantly reduced during acute vasoocclusive pain crisis in patients with sickle cell disease, but the complexes were normalized at their baseline outpatient clinic visit. Hemopexin exposed a protective function of factor I activity in vitro, but only when it was present before the addition of heme. In conclusion, we present a mechanistic explanation of how heme promotes uncontrolled complement alternative pathway amplification by interfering with the regulatory capacity of factor I. Reduced levels of hemopexin and hemopexin-factor I complexes during an acute hemolytic crisis is a risk factor for heme-mediated factor I inhibition.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is an uncommon and severe subtype of stroke leading to the loss of many years of productive life. We analyzed NLRP3 activity as well as key components of the inflammasome cascade in monocytes and plasma from 28 patients with aSAH and 14 normal controls using flow cytometry, western blot, ELISA, and qPCR technologies. Our data reveal that monocytes from patients with aSAH present an overactivation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, which results in the presence of high plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-18, gasdermin D, and tissue factor. Although further research is needed, we propose that serum tissue factor concentration might be a useful prognosis biomarker for clinical outcome, and for Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy and cerebral vasospasm prediction. Remarkably, MCC-950 inhibitor effectively blocks NLRP3 activation in aSAH monocyte culture and supresses tissue factor release to the extracellular space. Finally, our findings suggest that NLRP3 activation could be due to the release of erythrocyte breakdown products to the subarachnoid space during aSAH event. These data define NLRP3 activation in monocytes from aSAH patients, indicating systemic inflammation that results in serum TF upregulation which in turns correlates with aSAH severity and might serve as a prognosis biomarker for aSAH clinical outcome and for cerebral vasospasm and Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy prediction.

Abstract
Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) play a critical role in dendritic cells (DCs) ability to trigger a specific and efficient adaptive immune response for different physiological and pathological scenarios. We have previously identified constitutive DAMPs (HMGB1 and Calreticulin) as well as new putative inducible DAMPs such as Haptoglobin (HP), from a therapeutically used heat shock-conditioned melanoma cell lysate (called TRIMEL). Remarkably, HP was shown to be the most abundant protein in the proteomic profile of heat shock-conditioned TRIMEL samples. However, its relative contribution to the observed DCs phenotype has not been fully elucidated. Human DCs were generated from monocytes isolated from PBMC of melanoma patients and healthy donors. DC lineage was induced with rhIL-4 and rhGM-CSF. After additional stimulation with HP, the proteome of these HP-stimulated cells was characterized. In addition, DCs were phenotypically characterized by flow cytometry for canonical maturation markers and cytokine production. Finally, in vitro transmigration capacity was assessed using Transwell plates. Our results showed that the stimulation with HP was associated with the presence of exclusive and higher relative abundance of specific immune-; energy production-; lipid biosynthesis-; and DAMPs-related proteins. Importantly, HP stimulation enhanced the expression of specific DC maturation markers and pro-inflammatory and Th1-associated cytokines, and an in vitro transmigration of primary human DCs. Taken together, these data suggest that HP can be considered as a new inducible DAMP with an important role in in vitro DC activation for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Intravascular hemolysis is a fundamental feature of hemorrhagic venereal infection or tissue and releases the endogenous damage-associated molecular pattern hemoglobin (Hb) into the plasma or tissues, which results in systemic inflammation, vasomotor dysfunction, thrombophilia, and proliferative vasculopathy. However, how the cytotoxic Hb affects the tissues of grass carp remains unclear. Here, we established a hemolysis model in grass carp by injecting phenylhydrazine (PHZ). The data revealed that the PHZ-induced hemolysis increased the content of Hb and activated the antioxidant system in plasma. The histopathology analysis data showed that the PHZ-induced hemolysis increased the accumulation of Hb and iron both in the head and middle kidney. The results of quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) detection suggested that the hemolysis upregulated the expressions of iron metabolism-related genes. In addition, the immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry data revealed that the hemolysis caused an obvious deposition of collagen fiber, malondialdehyde (MDA), and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) accumulation and increased the content of oxidative-related enzymes such as β-galactosidase (β-GAL), lipid peroxide (LPO), and MDA in both the head and middle kidney. Furthermore, the PHZ-induced hemolysis significantly increased the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which resulted in apoptosis and modulated the expressions of cytokine-related genes. Taken together, excess of Hb released from hemolysis caused tissue oxidative damage, which may be associated with ROS and inflammation generation.

Abstract
Infectious bacterial and viral diseases that cause hemolysis are considered life-threatening to grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus), which is a species used in aquaculture worldwide. After heme and hemeproteins (Hb) are released as a result of hemolysis, the effect of excess Hb and heme on tissues remains to be characterized. To decipher the mechanisms, after incubation with Hb, we showed that lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Hb, and heme increased the cytotoxicity and secretion of inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-6, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 1 (CCL1), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-6, and IL-1β in vitro, which was due to stimulation of the expression of innate immune receptors, such as nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD2), toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), TLR 4, and TLR3. The formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB were important for increasing the cytokine production to induce heme, Hb, and LPS. Moreover, we confirmed that after LPS, Hb, and heme challenge, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) synthetase (GSS) also caused remarkable destruction. However, catalase (CAT) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were strongly activated. In summary, our research findings present a framework through which heme and Hb concentrations amplify the secretions of inflammatory cytokines, which are induced by pattern recognition receptor (PRR) activation and present possible paths for immune intervention during infection with viral diseases and hemolytic bacterial.

Hemolytic disease in grass carp (C. idella) leads to hemolysis in vivo, releasing damage-related molecular patterns (DAMPs) hemoglobin (Hb; which is rapidly oxidized to Hb-Fe3+ and Hb-Fe4+) and generating a high level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause oxidative damage. However, the effect of cell-free Hb on tissue cells of grass carp has yet to be elucidated. In this study, western blotting (WB) and immunofluorescence analysis (IFA) results showed that PHZ-induced hemolysis caused Hb and iron accumulation, increased the production of ROS and resulted in apoptosis in head kidney and middle kidney of the grass carp. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), WB, and IFA revealed that PHZ-induced hemolysis significantly upregulated the expression of inflammation-related genes through activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway. To further explore the effect of Hb, three forms of Hb (Hb, MetHb, and FerrylHb) were prepared. The incubation with the different forms of Hb and heme markedly upregulated the expression of cytokine genes through NF-κB signaling pathway, which was further confirmed by a specific inhibitor (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE). Flow cytometry analysis data showed that the stimulation of different forms of Hb and heme increased the production of ROS, and resulted in apoptosis. In summary, our data suggest that the excess cell-free Hb released during hemolysis modulates the inflammatory response through activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway and causes cell oxidative damage and apoptosis.

Abstract
Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PHT) is common in β-thalassemia patients due to hemolysis, iron overload and diminished nitric oxide (NO) levels. Biochemical markers can help to understand the pathophysiology and to introduce new therapies for this condition. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of L-arginine and sildenafil in thalassemia children with PHT at both clinical and biochemical levels. Methods and Results: In a randomized controlled study, 60 β-thalassemia major children with PHT were divided into 3 equal groups; Control group (Conventional thalassemia and PHT management), L-arginine group (Conventional + Oral L-arginine 0.1 mg.kg−1 daily), and sildenafil group (Conventional + Oral sildenafil 0.25 mg.kg−1 two times a day) for 60 days. Tricuspid Regurgitant Jet Velocity (TRJV) with Doppler echocardiography along with serum levels of NO, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), interleukin 1-beta (IL-1β), E-selectin, and visfatin were followed-up at baseline, 30, and 60 days after treatment. Both drugs reduced the TRJV significantly. NO was significantly higher in both L-arginine and sildenafil groups after 60 days compared to baseline, while visfatin levels were lower. Only L-arginine reduced ADMA levels compared to baseline, while sildenafil did not. E-selectin and IL-1β levels did not change remarkably by both drugs. NO and TRJV showed significant negative correlations in both treatment groups. Conclusion: L-arginine and sildenafil could clinically ameliorate chronic PHT whereas, L-arginine showed superiority to sildenafil on some biochemical markers.

Abstract
Significance: While atherosclerosis is an almost inevitable consequence of aging, food preferences, lack of exercise, and other aspects of the lifestyle in many countries, the identification of new risk factors is of increasing importance to tackle a disease, which has become a major health burden for billions of people. Iron has long been suspected to promote the development of atherosclerosis, but data have been conflicting, and the contribution of iron is still debated controversially. Recent Advances: Several experimental and clinical studies have been recently published about this longstanding controversial problem, highlighting the critical need to unravel the complexity behind this topic. Critical Issues: The aim of the current review is to provide an overview of the current knowledge about the proatherosclerotic impact of iron, and discuss the emerging role of non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) as driver of vasculotoxicity and atherosclerosis. Finally, I will provide detailed mechanistic insights on the cellular processes and molecular pathways underlying iron-exacerbated atherosclerosis. Overall, this review highlights a complex framework where NTBI acts at multiple levels in atherosclerosis by altering the serum and vascular microenvironment in a proatherogenic and proinflammatory manner, affecting the functionality and survival of vascular cells, promoting foam cell formation and inducing angiogenesis, calcification, and plaque destabilization. Future Directions: The use of additional iron markers (e.g., NTBI) may help adequately predict predisposition to cardiovascular disease. Clinical studies are needed in the aging population to address the atherogenic role of iron fluctuations within physiological limits and the therapeutic value of iron restriction approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endurance running events are known to cause inflammation and result in increased cytokine production. However, the effects of ultramarathons on cytokine profiles are not well characterized. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to describe and compare the effects of a trail (40 km) race and an ultra-trail (171 km) race on leukocyte concentrations and cytokine profiles. METHODS The study was conducted during the Ultra-Trail du Mont Blanc® ultra-marathon running event, and included 11 runners who completed the 40 km trail run and 12 runners who completed the 171 km ultra-trail. Blood samples were taken before and after the races. RESULTS Leukocyte concentrations significantly increased after both races. Circulating levels of IL-6, IL-1β, MCP-1, and IFN-γ were significantly higher after the longer race compared to the shorter race. Furthermore, while both races resulted in significant increases in IL-6 and IL-8, only the longer race resulted in significant increases in MIP-1β, IL-7, IL-17a, and IL-4. CONCLUSIONS These results illustrate that a 171 km ultra-trail race results in greater modulations in cytokine profiles than a traditional trail race.

Abstract
The inflammasomes control the bioactivity of pro-inflammatory cytokines of the interleukin (IL)-1 family. The inflammasome assembled by NLRP3 has been predominantly studied in homogeneous cell populations in vitro, neglecting the influence of cellular interactions that occur in vivo. Here, we show that platelets boost the inflammasome capacity of human macrophages and neutrophils and are critical for IL-1 production by monocytes. Platelets license NLRP3 transcription, thereby enhancing ASC oligomerization, caspase-1 activity, and IL-1β secretion. Platelets influence IL-1β production in vivo, and blood platelet counts correlate with plasmatic IL-1β levels in malaria. Furthermore, we reveal an enriched platelet gene signature among the highest-expressed transcripts in IL-1β-driven autoinflammatory diseases. The platelet effect is independent of cell-to-cell contact, platelet-derived lipid mediators, purines, nucleic acids, and a host of platelet cytokines, and it involves the triggering of calcium-sensing receptors on macrophages. Hence, platelets provide an additional layer of regulation of inflammasomes and IL-1-driven inflammation. Platelets license NLRP3 for inflammasome activattion in innate immune cells Platelets are required for optimal monocyte inflammasome activation Platelets shape IL-1β in vivo, and platelet counts correlate with IL-1β in plasma A constitutive, heat-sensitive soluble platelet-factor boost IL-1β in macrophages

Abstract
Increasing evidence suggests that free haem and iron exert vasculo‐toxic and pro‐inflammatory effects by activating endothelial and immune cells. In the present retrospective study, we compared serum samples from transfusion‐dependent patients with β‐thalassaemia major and intermedia, hereditary spherocytosis and sickle cell disease (SCD). Haemolysis, transfusions and ineffective erythropoiesis contribute to haem and iron overload in haemolytic patients. In all cohorts we observed increased systemic haem and iron levels associated with scavenger depletion and toxic ‘free’ species formation. Endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress and inflammation markers were significantly increased compared to healthy donors. In multivariable logistic regression analysis, oxidative stress markers remained significantly associated with both haem‐ and iron‐related parameters, while soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM‐1), soluble endothelial selectin (sE‐selectin) and tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα) showed the strongest association with haem‐related parameters and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM‐1), sVCAM‐1, interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) with iron‐related parameters. While hereditary spherocytosis was associated with the highest IL‐6 and TNFα levels, β‐thalassaemia major showed limited inflammation compared to SCD. The sVCAM1 increase was significantly lower in patients with SCD receiving exchange compared to simple transfusions. The present results support the involvement of free haem/iron species in the pathogenesis of vascular dysfunction and sterile inflammation in haemolytic diseases, irrespective of the underlying haemolytic mechanism, and highlight the potential therapeutic benefit of iron/haem scavenging therapies in these conditions.

Abstract
Over the past decades, substantial work has established that hemoglobin oxidation and heme release play a pivotal role in hemolytic/hemorrhagic disorders. Recent reports have shown that oxidized hemoglobins, globin-derived peptides, and heme trigger diverse biological responses, such as toll-like receptor 4 activation with inflammatory response, reprogramming of cellular metabolism, differentiation, stress, and even death. Here, we discuss these cellular responses with particular focus on their mechanisms that are linked to the pathological consequences of hemorrhage and hemolysis. In recent years, endogenous gasotransmitters, such as carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), have gained a lot of interest in connection with various human pathologies. Thus, many CO and H2S-releasing molecules have been developed and applied in various human disorders, including hemolytic and hemorrhagic diseases. Here, we discuss our current understanding of oxidized hemoglobin and heme-induced cell and tissue damage with particular focus on inflammation, cellular metabolism and differentiation, and endoplasmic reticulum stress in hemolytic/hemorrhagic human diseases, and the potential beneficial role of CO and H2S in these pathologies. More detailed mechanistic insights into the complex pathology of hemolytic/hemorrhagic diseases through heme oxygenase-1/CO as well as H2S pathways would reveal new therapeutic approaches that can be exploited for clinical benefit.

Abstract
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) catalyzes the degradation of heme molecules releasing equimolar amounts of biliverdin, iron and carbon monoxide. Its expression is induced in response to stress signals such as reactive oxygen species and inflammatory mediators with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive consequences for the host. Interestingly, several intracellular pathogens responsible for major human diseases have been shown to be powerful inducers of HO-1 expression in both host cells and in vivo. Studies have shown that this HO-1 response can be either host detrimental by impairing pathogen control or host beneficial by limiting infection induced inflammation and tissue pathology. These properties make HO-1 an attractive target for host-directed therapy (HDT) of the diseases in question, many of which have been difficult to control using conventional antibiotic approaches. Here we review the mechanisms by which HO-1 expression is induced and how the enzyme regulates inflammatory and immune responses during infection with a number of different intracellular bacterial and protozoan pathogens highlighting mechanistic commonalities and differences with the goal of identifying targets for disease intervention.

Oxidative stress and inflammasome activation in human rhabdomyolysis-induced acute kidney injury. Free Radic Biol Med 2020; 160:690-695.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a life-threatening complication of rhabdomyolysis. The pathophysiological mechanisms of rhabdomyolysis-induced AKI (RIAKI) have been extensively studied in the murine system, yet clinical translation of this knowledge to humans is lacking. In this study, we investigated the cellular and molecular pathways of human RIAKI. Renal biopsy tissue from a RIAKI patient was examined by quantitative immunohistochemistry (Q-IHC) and compared to healthy kidney cortical tissue. We identified myoglobin casts and uric acid localised to sites of histological tubular injury, consistent with the diagnosis of RIAKI. These pathological features were associated with tubular oxidative stress (4-hydroxynonenal staining), regulated necrosis/necroptosis (phosphorylated mixed-lineage kinase domain-like protein staining) and inflammation (tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α staining). Expression of these markers was significantly elevated in the RIAKI tissue compared to the healthy control. A tubulointerstitial inflammatory infiltrate accumulated adjacent to these sites of RIAKI oxidative injury, consisting of macrophages (CD68), dendritic cells (CD1c) and T lymphocytes (CD3). Foci of inflammasome activation were co-localised with these immune cell infiltrate, with significantly increased staining for adaptor protein ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain) and active caspase-1 in the RIAKI tissue compared to the healthy control. Our clinical findings identify multiple pathophysiological pathways previously only reported in murine RIAKI, providing first evidence in humans linking deposition of myoglobin and presence of uric acid to tubular oxidative stress/necroptosis, inflammasome activation and necroinflammation.

Abstract
Cell‐free hemoglobin (CFH) is associated with severe lung injury in human patients and is sufficient to induce airspace inflammation and alveolar–capillary barrier dysfunction in an experimental model of acute lung injury. The mechanisms through which this occurs are unknown. One key pathway which regulates inflammation during acute lung injury is the NLRP3 inflammasome. Because CFH can act as a damage‐associated molecular pattern, we hypothesized that CFH may activate the NLRP3 inflammasome during acute lung injury. Primary mouse alveolar macrophages and cultured murine macrophages exposed to CFH (0–1 mg/ml) for 24 hr demonstrated robust upregulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome components NLRP3, caspase‐1, and caspase‐11. Maximal induction of the NLRP3 inflammasome by CFH required TLR4. Compared to wild‐type controls, mice lacking NLRP3 developed less airspace inflammation (2.7 × 105 cells/ml in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid versus. 1.1 × 105/ml, p = .006) after exposure to intratracheal CFH. Together, these data demonstrate that CFH can stimulate the NLRP3 inflammasome in macrophages and that this pathway may be important in the pathogenesis of CFH‐induced acute lung injury.

Abstract
Damage-associated molecular patterns are signalling molecules involved in inflammatory responses and restoration of homeostasis. Chronic release of these molecules can also promote inflammation in the context of liver disease. Herein, we provide a comprehensive summary of the role of damage-associated molecular patterns as danger signals in liver injury. We consider the role of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species as inducers of damage-associated molecular patterns, as well as how specific damage-associated molecular patterns participate in the pathogenesis of chronic liver diseases such as alcohol-related liver disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, liver fibrosis and liver cancer. In addition, we discuss the role of damage-associated molecular patterns in ischaemia reperfusion injury and liver transplantation and highlight current studies in which blockade of specific damage-associated molecular patterns has proven beneficial in humans and mice.

Abstract
Damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are endogenous molecules originate from damaged cells and tissues with the ability to trigger and/or modify innate immune responses. Upon hemolysis hemoglobin (Hb) is released from red blood cells (RBCs) to the circulation and give a rise to the production of different Hb redox states and heme which can act as DAMPs. Heme is the best characterized Hb-derived DAMP that targets different immune and non-immune cells. Heme is a chemoattractant, activates the complement system, modulates host defense mechanisms through the activation of innate immune receptors and the heme oxygenase-1/ferritin system, and induces innate immune memory. The contribution of oxidized Hb forms is much less studied, but some evidence show that these species might play distinct roles in intravascular hemolysis-associated pathologies independently of heme release. This review aims to summarize our current knowledge about the formation and pro-inflammatory actions of heme and other Hb-derived DAMPs.

Formation and Detection of Highly Oxidized Hemoglobin Forms in Biological Fluids during Hemolytic Conditions. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:8929020.

Abstract
Hemolytic diseases are characterized by an accelerated breakdown of red blood cells (RBCs) and the release of hemoglobin (Hb). Following, RBC lysis Hb oxidation occurs with the formation of different redox states of Hb (metHb and ferrylHb) and the release of heme. ferrylHb is unstable and decomposes to metHb with the concomitant formation of globin radicals and eventually covalently crosslinked Hb multimers. The goal of the present study was to determine the concentrations of the different redox states of Hb in biological samples during hemolytic conditions. We used plasma and urine samples of mice with intravascular hemolysis and human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples following intraventricular hemorrhage. Because ferrylHb is highly unstable, we also addressed the fate of this species. metHb and free heme time-dependently accumulate in plasma and CSF samples following intravascular hemolysis and intraventricular hemorrhage, respectively. ferrylHb is hardly detectable in the biological samples during hemolytic conditions. Under in vitro conditions, ferrylHb decomposes quickly to metHb, which process is associated with the formation of covalently crosslinked Hb multimers. We detected these covalently crosslinked Hb multimers in plasma, urine, and CSF samples during hemolytic conditions. Because globin modification is specific for these Hb forms, we propose to call this heterogeneous form of Hb produced during ferrylHb decomposition as globin-modified oxidized Hb (gmoxHb). Understanding the formation and the contribution of gmoxHb species to the pathogenesis of hemolytic conditions could have therapeutic implications in the treatment of hemolytic diseases.

Abstract
Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a frequent complication of prematurity that is associated with high neonatal mortality and morbidity. IVH is accompanied by red blood cell (RBC) lysis, hemoglobin (Hb) oxidation, and sterile inflammation. Here we investigated whether extracellular Hb, metHb, ferrylHb, and heme contribute to the inflammatory response after IVH. We collected cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) (n = 20) from premature infants with grade III IVH at different time points after the onset of IVH. Levels of Hb, metHb, total heme, and free heme were the highest in CSF samples obtained between days 0 and 20 after the onset of IVH and were mostly non-detectable in CSF collected between days 41 and 60 of post-IVH. Besides Hb monomers, we detected cross-linked Hb dimers and tetramers in post-IVH CSF samples obtained in days 0–20 and 21–40, but only Hb tetramers were present in CSF samples obtained after 41–60 days. Vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) levels were higher in CSF samples obtained between days 0 and 20 than in CSF collected between days 41 and 60 of post-IVH. Concentrations of VCAM-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and IL-8 strongly correlated with total heme levels in CSF. Applying the identified heme sources on human brain microvascular endothelial cells revealed that Hb oxidation products and free heme contribute to the inflammatory response. We concluded that RBC lysis, Hb oxidation, and heme release are important components of the inflammatory response in IVH. Pharmacological interventions targeting cell-free Hb, Hb oxidation products, and free heme could have potential to limit the neuroinflammatory response following IVH.

Abstract
Pigment nephropathy is an acute decline in renal function following the deposition of endogenous haem-containing proteins in the kidneys. Haem pigments such as myoglobin and haemoglobin are filtered by glomeruli and absorbed by the proximal tubules. They cause renal vasoconstriction, tubular obstruction, increased oxidative stress and inflammation. Haem is associated with inflammation in sterile and infectious conditions, contributing to the pathogenesis of many disorders such as rhabdomyolysis and haemolytic diseases. In fact, haem appears to be a signalling molecule that is able to activate the inflammasome pathway. Recent studies highlight a pathogenic function for haem in triggering inflammatory responses through the activation of the nucleotide-binding domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome. Among the inflammasome multiprotein complexes, the NLRP3 inflammasome has been the most widely characterized as a trigger of inflammatory caspases and the maturation of interleukin-18 and -1β. In the present review, we discuss the latest evidence on the importance of inflammasome-mediated inflammation in pigment nephropathy. Finally, we highlight the potential role of inflammasome inhibitors in the prophylaxis and treatment of pigment nephropathy.
