COVID-19-Associated Sepsis: Potential Role of Phytochemicals as Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:8481. [PMID: 39126050 PMCID: PMC11312872 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25158481] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2024] [Revised: 07/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The acute manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) exhibit the hallmarks of sepsis-associated complications that reflect multiple organ failure. The inflammatory cytokine storm accompanied by an imbalance in the pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory host response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection leads to severe and critical septic shock. The sepsis signature in severely afflicted COVID-19 patients includes cellular reprogramming and organ dysfunction that leads to high mortality rates, emphasizing the importance of improved clinical care and advanced therapeutic interventions for sepsis associated with COVID-19. Phytochemicals of functional foods and nutraceutical importance have an incredible impact on the healthcare system, which includes the prevention and/or treatment of chronic diseases. Hence, in the present review, we aim to explore the pathogenesis of sepsis associated with COVID-19 that disrupts the physiological homeostasis of the body, resulting in severe organ damage. Furthermore, we have summarized the diverse pharmacological properties of some potent phytochemicals, which can be used as functional foods as well as nutraceuticals against sepsis-associated complications of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The phytochemicals explored in this article include quercetin, curcumin, luteolin, apigenin, resveratrol, and naringenin, which are the major phytoconstituents of our daily food intake. We have compiled the findings from various studies, including clinical trials in humans, to explore more into the therapeutic potential of each phytochemical against sepsis and COVID-19, which highlights their possible importance in sepsis-associated COVID-19 pathogenesis. We conclude that our review will open a new research avenue for exploring phytochemical-derived therapeutic agents for preventing or treating the life-threatening complications of sepsis associated with COVID-19.

A comprehensive insight into the molecular and cellular mechanisms of action of resveratrol on complications of sepsis a systematic review. Phytother Res 2023; 37:3780-3808. [PMID: 37405908 DOI: 10.1002/ptr.7917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 02/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
Sepsis and septic shock are still one of the most important medical challenges. Sepsis is an extreme and uncontrolled response of the innate immune system to invading pathogenesis. Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxytrans-stilbene), is a phenolic and non-flavonoid compound naturally produced by some plants and fruits. The object of the current study is to systematically review the impacts of resveratrol and its mechanisms of function in the management of sepsis and its related complications. The guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) statements were applied to perform the study (PROSPERO: CRD42021289357). We searched Embase, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Science Direct, PubMed, ProQuest, and Scopus databases up to January 2023 by using the relevant keywords. Study criteria were met by 72 out of 1415 articles screened. The results of this systematic review depict that resveratrol can reduces the complications of sepsis by affecting inflammatory pathways, oxidative stress, and modulating immune responses. Future human randomized clinical trials are necessary due to the promising therapeutic effects of resveratrol on sepsis complications and the lack of clinical trials in this regard.

Abstract
Sepsis presents as a severe infectious disease frequently documented in clinical settings. Characterized by its systemic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis has the potential to trigger multi-organ dysfunction and can escalate to becoming life-threatening. A common fallout from sepsis is acute lung injury (ALI), which often progresses to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Macrophages, due to their significant role in the immune system, are receiving increased attention in clinical studies. Macrophage polarization is a process that hinges on an intricate regulatory network influenced by a myriad of signaling molecules, transcription factors, epigenetic modifications, and metabolic reprogramming. In this review, our primary focus is on the classically activated macrophages (M1-like) and alternatively activated macrophages (M2-like) as the two paramount phenotypes instrumental in sepsis' host immune response. An imbalance between M1-like and M2-like macrophages can precipitate the onset and exacerbate the progression of sepsis. This review provides a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between macrophage polarization and sepsis-induced acute lung injury (SALI) and elaborates on the intervention strategy that centers around the crucial process of macrophage polarization.

Abstract
Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is involved in suppression of the development of endotoxin tolerance, which is a driver of the immunosuppression induced by sepsis. However, the mechanism by which AMPK inhibits the development of endotoxin tolerance has not been clearly elucidated. Therefore, the present study was performed to investigate the mechanism by which the AMPK activator, metformin, inhibits the development of endotoxin tolerance. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) increased the production of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 in macrophages, which was inhibited by metformin and resveratrol. Knockdown of AMPKα1 inhibited the suppressive effect of metformin on LPS-induced TGF-β1 production. TGF-β neutralizing antibody and TGF-β type I receptor inhibitor increased the production of TNF-α and IL-6 via LPS restimulation in tolerized macrophages. LPS increased Smad2 phosphorylation, but this was inhibited in cells treated with TGF-β neutralizing antibody or metformin. Smad2 knockdown inhibited the development of endotoxin tolerance, as evidenced by increased TNF-α production in response to LPS restimulation in tolerized macrophages. TGF-β1 expression was increased, and the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 production induced by LPS stimulation were decreased, in splenocytes of cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model mice compared to sham-operated controls. However, metformin treatment suppressed the production of TGF-β1, and enhanced the production of TNF-α and IL-6 induced by LPS stimulation in splenocytes of CLP mice. These results indicated that AMPK activation inhibits LPS-induced TGF-β1 production and its signaling pathway, thus suppressing the development of endotoxin tolerance in macrophages.

Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 115:109703. [PMID: 37724953 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.109703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
The kidney is susceptible to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced damage with sepsis, and renal dysfunction is a leading cause of mortality in patients with sepsis. However, the renoprotective effects of ferulic acid (FA) during sepsis and the underlying mechanism remain unclear. This study explored these renoprotective effects using NRK-52E cells and mice with LPS-induced renal damage. The results showed that after LPS challenge, NRK-52E cell viability decreased, whereas lactate dehydrogenase, caspase-3 activity, apoptosis, the release of the inflammatory cytokines, and reactive oxygen species generation increased. Further, the activities of endogenous enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems, and energy metabolism were inhibited, mitochondrial membrane potential was lost, mitochondrial permeability transition pores opened, renal blood flow and excretory functions were reduced, and the morphology and ultrastructure of renal tissue were seriously damaged in mice exposed to LPS. FA pretreatment upregulated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) α1 expression and phosphorylation and significantly reversed the aforementioned functional, enzymological, and morphological indexes in vivo and in vitro. However, these renoprotective effects of FA were attenuated by compound C, an AMPK inhibitor. In conclusion, FA pretreatment can upregulate AMPKα1 expression and phosphorylation, inhibit inflammatory cytokine release and oxidative stress, improve mitochondrial function and energy supply, alleviate apoptosis, and ultimately protect renal tissue against LPS damage.

Ginkgolic acid promotes inflammation and macrophage apoptosis via SUMOylation and NF-κB pathways in sepsis. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 9:1108882. [PMID: 36743669 PMCID: PMC9892062 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.1108882] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Excessive inflammation and increased apoptosis of macrophages contribute to organ damage and poor prognosis of sepsis. Ginkgolic acid (GA) is a natural constituent extracted from the leaves of Ginkgo biloba, that can regulate inflammation and apoptosis. The present study aims to investigate the potential effect of GA in treating sepsis and its possible mechanisms. Materials and methods Here, a classic septic mice model and a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 inflammation model were established. Cytokines in serum and culture supernatant were detected by ELISA, and the mRNA levels of them were examined by PCR. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was performed to determine histopathological changes in liver, lung and kidney. Bacterial burden in the blood, peritoneal lavage fluids (PLFs) and organs were observed on Luria-Bertani agar medium. Flow cytometry and western blotting was used to detect apoptosis and the expression level of apoptosis related molecules, respectively. Moreover, the levels of SUMOylation were detected by western blotting. The activity of NF-κB p65 was assessed by immunofluorescence staining and western blotting. Results The result showed that GA promoted inflammatory responses, reduced bacterial clearance, aggravated organ damage, and increased mortality in septic mice. GA increased apoptosis in peritoneal macrophages (PMs) and RAW 264.7 cells. Meanwhile, GA inhibited SUMOylation and increased the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 as well as its phosphorylation level. Conclusion Collectively, GA promotes inflammation and macrophage apoptosis in sepsis, which may be mediated by inhibiting the SUMOylation process and increasing NF-κB p65 activity.

Abstract
Nutraceuticals act as cellular and functional modulators, contributing to the homeostasis of physiological processes. In an inflammatory microenvironment, these functional foods can interact with the immune system by modulating or balancing the exacerbated proinflammatory response. In this process, immune cells, such as antigen-presenting cells (APCs), identify danger signals and, after interacting with T lymphocytes, induce a specific effector response. Moreover, this conditions their change of state with phenotypical and functional modifications from the resting state to the activated and effector state, supposing an increase in their energy requirements that affect their intracellular metabolism, with each immune cell showing a unique metabolic signature. Thus, nutraceuticals, such as polyphenols, vitamins, fatty acids, and sulforaphane, represent an active option to use therapeutically for health or the prevention of different pathologies, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. To regulate the inflammation associated with these pathologies, intervention in metabolic pathways through the modulation of metabolic energy with nutraceuticals is an attractive strategy that allows inducing important changes in cellular properties. Thus, we provide an overview of the link between metabolism, immune function, and nutraceuticals in chronic inflammatory processes associated with obesity and diabetes, paying particular attention to nutritional effects on APC and T cell immunometabolism, as well as the mechanisms required in the change in energetic pathways involved after their activation.

Abstract
Endotoxemia is a common complication often used to model the acute inflammatory response associated with endotoxemia. Resveratrol has been shown to exert a wide range of therapeutic effects due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. This study explored the effect of resveratrol on endotoxemia. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemia mouse model and endotoxemia myocardial injury cell model were established and treated with resveratrol. Cardiomyocyte activity, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) content in cell supernatant, glutathione (GSH) consumption, lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and iron accumulation were detected. Cardiac function indexes [left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), ejection fraction (EF)%, and fractional shortening (FS)%] were measured using echocardiography. The creatine kinase muscle/brain isoenzyme (CK-MB) and CK levels in the serum were detected using an automatic biochemical analyzer. The downstream target of miR-149 was predicted, and the binding relationship between miR-149 and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) was verified using a dual-luciferase assay. miR-149 and HMGB1 expressions were detected using RT-qPCR and Western blot. After resveratrol treatment, cardiomyocyte viability and GSH were increased, and LDH secretion, lipid ROS production, lipid peroxidation, and iron accumulation were decreased, and cardiac function and cardiomyocyte injury were improved. Resveratrol improved LPS-induced endotoxemia cardiomyocyte injury by upregulating miR-149 and inhibiting ferroptosis. Resveratrol inhibited HMGB1 expression by upregulating miR-149. HMGB1 upregulation reversed the inhibitory effect of miR-149 on LPS-induced ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes. Resveratrol upregulated miR-149 and downregulated HMGB1 to inhibit ferroptosis and improve myocardial injury in mice with LPS-induced endotoxemia. Collectively, resveratrol upregulated miR-149, downregulated HMGB1, and inhibited the ferroptosis pathway, thus improving cardiomyocyte injury in LPS-induced endotoxemia.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Sepsis is an unusual systemic reaction. Resveratrol is involved in sepsis treatment. This study explored the mechanism of resveratrol in sepsis by regulating the miR-149/HMGB1 axis.

Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol compound that is a SIRT-1 activator with anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal inhibitory abilities as well as cardiovascular and anti-tumor protective effects. In recent years, some scholars have applied resveratrol in animal models of sepsis and found that it has an organ protective effect and can improve the survival time and reduce the mortality of animals with sepsis. In this study, Medline (Pubmed), embase, and other databases were searched to retrieve literature published in 2021 using the keywords “resveratrol” and “sepsis,” and then the potential of resveratrol for the treatment of sepsis was reviewed and prospected to provide some basis for future clinical research.
