NLRX1 Mediates the Disruption of Intestinal Mucosal Function Caused by Porcine Astrovirus Infection via the Extracellular Regulated Protein Kinases/Myosin Light-Chain Kinase (ERK/MLCK) Pathway. Cells 2024; 13:913. [PMID: 38891045 PMCID: PMC11171766 DOI: 10.3390/cells13110913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Porcine astrovirus (PAstV) has a potential zoonotic risk, with a high proportion of co-infection occurring with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and other diarrheal pathogens. Despite its high prevalence, the cellular mechanism of PAstV pathogenesis is ill-defined. Previous proteomics analyses have revealed that the differentially expressed protein NOD-like receptor X1 (NLRX1) located in the mitochondria participates in several important antiviral signaling pathways in PAstV-4 infection, which are closely related to mitophagy. In this study, we confirmed that PAstV-4 infection significantly up-regulated NLRX1 and mitophagy in Caco-2 cells, while the silencing of NLRX1 or the treatment of mitophagy inhibitor 3-MA inhibited PAstV-4 replication. Additionally, PAstV-4 infection triggered the activation of the extracellular regulated protein kinases/ myosin light-chain kinase (ERK/MLCK) pathway, followed by the down-regulation of tight-junction proteins (occludin and ZO-1) as well as MUC-2 expression. The silencing of NLRX1 or the treatment of 3-MA inhibited myosin light-chain (MLC) phosphorylation and up-regulated occludin and ZO-1 proteins. Treatment of the ERK inhibitor PD98059 also inhibited MLC phosphorylation, while MLCK inhibitor ML-7 mitigated the down-regulation of mucosa-related protein expression induced by PAstV-4 infection. Yet, adding PD98059 or ML-7 did not affect NLRX1 expression. In summary, this study preliminarily explains that NLRX1 plays an important role in the disruption of intestinal mucosal function triggered by PAstV-4 infection via the ERK/MLC pathway. It will be helpful for further antiviral drug target screening and disease therapy.

Luminol-conjugated cyclodextrin biological nanoparticles for the treatment of severe burn-induced intestinal barrier disruption. BURNS & TRAUMA 2024; 12:tkad054. [PMID: 38444636 PMCID: PMC10910847 DOI: 10.1093/burnst/tkad054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2023] [Revised: 10/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/14/2023] [Indexed: 03/07/2024]
Abstract
Background The breakdown of intestinal barrier integrity occurs after severe burn injury and is responsible for the subsequent reactions of inflammation and oxidative stress. A new protective strategy for the intestinal barrier is urgently needed due to the limitations of the traditional methods. Recently, the application of nanoparticles has become one of the promising therapies for many inflammation-related diseases or oxidative damage. Herein, we developed a new anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nanoparticle named luminol-conjugated cyclodextrin (LCD) and aimed to evaluate its protective effects in severe burn-induced intestinal injury. Methods First, LCD nanoparticles, engineered with covalent conjugation between luminol and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), were synthesized and examined. Then a mouse burn model was successfully established before the mouse body weight, intestinal histopathological manifestation, permeability, tight junction (TJ) expression and pro-inflammatory cytokines were determined in different groups. The proliferation, apoptosis, migration and reactive oxygen species (ROS) of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) were assessed. Intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) were isolated and cultured for analysis by flow cytometry. Results LCD nanoparticle treatment significantly relieved the symptoms of burn-induced intestinal injury in the mouse model, including body weight loss and intestinal permeability abnormalities. Moreover, LCD nanoparticles remarkably recovered the mechanical barrier of the intestine after severe burn, renewed TJ structures, promoted IEC proliferation and migration, and inhibited IEC apoptosis. Mechanistically, LCD nanoparticles dramatically alleviated pro-inflammation factors (tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-17A) and ROS accumulation, which could be highly involved in intestinal barrier disruption. Furthermore, an increase in IL-17A and the proportion of IL-17A+Vγ4+ γδ T subtype cells was also observed in vitro in LPS-treated Vγ4+ γδ T cells, but the use of LCD nanoparticles suppressed this increase. Conclusions Taken together, these findings demonstrate that LCD nanoparticles have the protective ability to ameliorate intestinal barrier disruption and provide a therapeutic intervention for burn-induced intestinal injury.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Licorice can nourish Pi (spleen) and thereby strengthening the digestive system according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Licorice has been generally used in the compound prescription to treat intestinal inflammatory disease. Licochalcone A (Lico A) is one of the characteristic molecules from licorice. T-UCRs, which are transcribed from ultraconserved regions, are a new class of long noncoding RNAs related to the renewal of intestinal epithelial renewal. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to investigate the effect and the uc.173-related mechanism of Lico A on intestinal epithelial renewal. MATERIALS AND METHODS IE-6 and Caco-2 cells were used to evaluate the effect of Lico A on apoptosis, proliferation, and migration of IECs. The intestinal organoid was used to investigate ex vivo effect and mechanism of Lico A promoting intestinal organoid development. C57BL/6J mice (both normal and uc.173-deficient ones) were used to examine the in vivo effect of Lico A on the renewal of intestinal mucosa. RESULTS The expression of three T-UCRs related to the intestinal mucosa renewal was altered in Lico A-treated IECs. Lico A promoted the proliferation and inhibited the apoptosis of IECs through uc.173/miR-195 pathway. The development of intestinal organoids and the renewal of intestinal mucosa of mice subjected to the 48-h FAST were all promoted by the treatment of Lico A. Moreover, the growth arrest of uc.173-deficient intestinal organoids and the atrophy of intestinal mucosa in uc.173-deficient mice could be rescued by the Lico A administration. CONCLUSION Results in this paper suggest that targeting T-UCRs may be the novel therapeutic approach for the promotion of epithelial regeneration, and through stimulating the regeneration of intestinal mucosa, Lico A may become a new therapeutic agent for the maintenance of intestinal epithelial integrity.

Abstract
Intestinal barrier dysfunction often exists in the heat stroke (HS) pathological process, which increases intestinal permeability and induces endotoxemia. The upregulation of MLCK is a crucial player affecting intestinal permeability. This study aimed to explore whether inhibiting myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) can improve HS-induced intestinal injury in rats. Twelve-week-old Wistar male rats were divided into three groups: the control group, the HS model group, and the treatment group [HS model + ML-7 (MLCK inhibitor)]. HS impaired the tight junctions in the rat gut and increased permeability. Additionally, increased inflammatory factors in serum, activation of apoptosis, and downregulation of tight junction proteins were observed in intestinal cells. ML-7 significantly inhibited the MLCK/p-MLC2 signaling pathway, increased the expression of tight junction proteins, reduced intestinal permeability, reduced apoptosis and alleviated the intestinal damage caused by HS. ML-7 inhibited HS-induced apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells by regulating the ERK/p38/HSP70 axis. Furthermore, inhibition of MLCK upregulated HSP70 expression through activation of the ERK pathway and inhibited cell apoptosis by abolishing the p38 MAPK pathway. In conclusion, inhibiting the MLCK/p-MLC2 signaling pathway reduces HS-induced intestinal permeability and protects the intestinal mucosal barrier.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Increased epithelial permeability in sepsis is mediated via disruptions in tight junctions, which are closely associated with the perijunctional actin-myosin ring. Genetic deletion of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) reverses sepsis-induced intestinal hyperpermeability and improves survival in a murine model of intra-abdominal sepsis. In an attempt to determine the generalizability of these findings, this study measured the impact of MLCK deletion on survival and potential associated mechanisms following pneumonia-induced sepsis. MLCK -/- and wild-type mice underwent intratracheal injection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Unexpectedly, survival was significantly worse in MLCK -/- mice than wild-type mice. This was associated with increased permeability to Evans blue dye in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid but not in tissue homogenate, suggesting increased alveolar epithelial leak. In addition, bacterial burden was increased in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Cytokine array using whole-lung homogenate demonstrated increases in multiple proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in knockout mice. These local pulmonary changes were associated with systemic inflammation with increased serum levels of IL-6 and IL-10 and a marked increase in bacteremia in MLCK -/- mice. Increased numbers of both bulk and memory CD4 + T cells were identified in the spleens of knockout mice, with increased early and late activation. These results demonstrate that genetic deletion of MLCK unexpectedly increases mortality in pulmonary sepsis, associated with worsened alveolar epithelial leak and both local and systemic inflammation. This suggests that caution is required in targeting MLCK for therapeutic gain in sepsis.

Abstract
There is converging and increasing evidence, but also uncertainty, for the role of abnormal intestinal epithelial barrier function in the origin and development of a growing number of human gastrointestinal and extraintestinal inflammatory disorders, and their related complaints. Despite a vast literature addressing factors and mechanisms underlying changes in intestinal permeability in humans, and its connection to the appearance and severity of clinical symptoms, the ultimate link remains to be established in many cases. Accordingly, there are no directives or clinical guidelines related to the therapeutic management of intestinal permeability disorders that allow health professionals involved in the management of these patients to carry out a consensus treatment based on clinical evidence. Instead, there are multiple pseudoscientific approaches and commercial propaganda scattered on the internet that confuse those affected and health professionals and that often lack scientific rigor. Therefore, in this review we aim to shed light on the different therapeutic options, which include, among others, dietary management, nutraceuticals and medical devices, microbiota and drugs, and epigenetic and exosomes-manipulation, through an objective evaluation of the scientific publications in this field. Advances in the knowledge and management of intestinal permeability will sure enable better options of dealing with this group of common disorders to enhance quality of life of those affected.

Abstract
Background More and more burn survivors were suffering from varying degrees of damage to the intestinal barrier. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) was frequently used as sedative in more cases, but it was found to have repair effect on intestinal barrier dysfunction recently. This study aimed to explore the potential specific targets of Dex in intestinal barrier repair in burn rats model. Methods Male adult SD rats were used to establish 40% TBSA III degree scald model in our study. The samples were divided into four groups: burn rats (Burn), burn rats with Dex medication (Burn-Dex), sham rats (Sham) and sham rats with Dex medication (Sham-Dex). And plasma FITC-dextran and diamine oxidase (DAO) were detected to determine the intestinal permeability. Differentially expressed proteins were further adopted to protein-protein interaction network analysis, Gene Ontology analysis (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. Results It showed that 40% TBSA III degree scald model was successfully constructed. And plasma FITC-dextran and DAO decreased significantly after Dex administration. Additionally, differentially expressed genes Psmb10, Psmb7 among the experimental groups were screened, which were significantly enriched in proteasome and other several pathways. Conclusion The results above suggested that Q4KM35 and Q9JHW0, which are encoded by Psmb10 and Psmb7, respectively, are two possible protein targets of Dex in intestinal barrier repair.
