[PMID: 39129233 DOI: 10.1002/ctm2.1808] [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: 04/26/2024] [Revised: 07/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND MAIN BODY Although interactions between the nervous and immune systems have been recognized decades ago, it has become increasingly appreciated that neuroimmune crosstalk is among the driving factors of multiple pulmonary inflammatory diseases including acute lung injury (ALI). Here, we review the current understanding of nerve innervations towards the lung and summarize how the neural regulation of immunity and inflammation participates in the onset and progression of several lung diseases, especially ALI. We then present advancements in the development of potential drugs for ALI targeting neuroimmune interactions, including cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway, sympathetic-immune pathway, purinergic signalling, neuropeptides and renin-angiotensin system at different stages from preclinical investigation to clinical trials, including the traditional Chinese medicine. CONCLUSION This review highlights the importance of considering the therapeutic strategy of inflammatory diseases within a conceptual framework that integrates classical inflammatory cascade and neuroimmune circuits, so as to deepen the understanding of immune modulation and develop more sophisticated approaches to treat lung diseases represented by ALI. KEY POINTS The lungs present abundant nerve innervations. Neuroimmune interactions exert a modulatory effect in the onset and progression of lung inflammatory diseases, especially acute lung injury. The advancements of potential drugs for ALI targeting neuroimmune crosstalk at different stages from preclinical investigation to clinical trials are elaborated. Point out the direction for the development of neuroimmune pharmacology in the future.

Gao X, Wu Y. Perioperative acute kidney injury: The renoprotective effect and mechanism of dexmedetomidine. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2024; 695:149402. [PMID: 38159412 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.149402] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is a highly selective and potent α2-adrenoceptor (α2-AR) agonist that is widely used as a clinical anesthetic to induce anxiolytic, sedative, and analgesic effects. In recent years, a growing body of evidence has demonstrated that DEX protects against acute kidney injury (AKI) caused by sepsis, drugs, surgery, and ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in organs or tissues, indicating its potential role in the prevention and treatment of AKI. In this review, we summarized the evidence of the renoprotective effects of DEX on different models of AKI and explored the mechanism. We found that the renoprotective effects of DEX mainly involved antisympathetic effects, reducing inflammatory reactions and oxidative stress, reducing apoptosis, increasing autophagy, reducing ferroptosis, protecting renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs), and inhibiting renal fibrosis. Thus, the use of DEX is a promising strategy for the management and treatment of perioperative AKI. The aim of this review is to further clarify the renoprotective mechanism of DEX to provide a theoretical basis for its use in basic research in various AKI models, clinical management, and the treatment of perioperative AKI.

Effect and mechanisms of dexmedetomidine combined with macrophage migration inhibitory factor inhibition on the expression of inflammatory factors and AMPK in mice. Clin Exp Immunol 2023; 212:61-69.

Abstract
Reperfusion after acute myocardial infarction can cause ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which not only impedes restoration of the functions of tissues and organs but may also aggravate structural tissue and organ damage and dysfunction, worsening the patient's condition. Thus, the mechanisms that underpin myocardial I/R injury need to be better understood. We aimed to examine the effect of dexmedetomidine on macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in cardiomyocytes from mice with myocardial I/R injury and to explore the mechanistic role of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling in this process. Myocardial I/R injury was induced in mice. The expression of serum inflammatory factors, reactive oxygen species (ROS), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and AMPK pathway-related proteins, as well as myocardial tissue structure and cell apoptosis rate, were compared between mice with I/R injury only; mice with I/R injury treated with dexmedetomidine, ISO-1 (MIF inhibitor), or both; and sham-operated mice. Dexmedetomidine reduced serum interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α concentrations and increased IL-10 concentration in mice with I/R injury. Moreover, dexmedetomidine reduced myocardial tissue ROS content and apoptosis rate and increased ATP content and MIF expression. MIF inhibition using ISO-1 reversed the protective effect of dexmedetomidine on myocardial I/R injury and reduced AMPK phosphorylation. Dexmedetomidine reduces the inflammatory response in mice with I/R injury and improves adverse symptoms, and its mechanism of action may be related to the MIF-AMPK pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As an organelle essential for intracellular energy supply, mitochondria are involved in intracellular metabolism and inflammation, and cell death. The interaction of mitochondria with the NLRP3 inflammasome in the development of lung diseases has been extensively studied. However, the exact mechanism by which mitochondria mediate the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and trigger lung disease is still unclear. METHODS The literatures related to mitochondrial stress, NLRP3 inflammasome and lung diseases were searched in PubMed. RESULTS This review aims to provide new insights into the recently discovered mitochondrial regulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in lung diseases. It also describes the crucial roles of mitochondrial autophagy, long noncoding RNA, micro RNA, altered mitochondrial membrane potential, cell membrane receptors, and ion channels in mitochondrial stress and regulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, in addition to the reduction of mitochondrial stress by nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). The effective components of potential drugs for the treatment of lung diseases under this mechanism are also summarized. CONCLUSION This review provides a resource for the discovery of new therapeutic mechanisms and suggests ideas for the development of new therapeutic drugs, thus promoting the rapid treatment of lung diseases.

Dexmedetomidine alleviates acute lung injury by promoting Tregs differentiation via activation of AMPK/SIRT1 pathway. Inflammopharmacology 2023; 31:423-438. [PMID: 36534240 PMCID: PMC9762669 DOI: 10.1007/s10787-022-01117-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the anti-inflammatory effect and the potential mechanism of dexmedetomidine in ARDS/ALI. MATERIALS AND METHODS C57BL/6 mice and EL-4 cells were used in this research. The ALI model was established by CLP. The level of inflammatory cytokines in the lung and blood, the severity of lung injury, the expression of Foxp3, and the proportion of Tregs were detected before and after dexmedetomidine treatment. The expression of the AMPK/SIRT1 after dexmedetomidine treatment was detected in vivo and in vitro. After blocking the AMPK/SIRT1 pathway or depleting Tregs in vivo, the level of the inflammatory response, tissue injury, and Tregs differentiation were detected again to clarify the effect of dexmedetomidine. RESULTS Dexmedetomidine significantly reduced systemic inflammation and lung injury in CLP mice. Dexmedetomidine enhanced the Foxp3 expression in the lungs and the frequency of Tregs in the spleen. Dexmedetomidine up-regulated the protein expression of p-AMPK and SIRT1 in lungs and EL-4 cells and facilitated the differentiation of naïve CD4+ T cells into Tregs in vitro. Meanwhile, DEX also increased the expression of Helios in Treg cells. CONCLUSIONS DEX could improve ARDS/ALI by facilitating the differentiation of Tregs from naïve CD4+ T cells via activating the AMPK/SIRT1 pathway.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) refers to a syndrome in which tissue damage is further aggravated and organ function further deteriorates when blood flow is restored after a period of tissue ischemia. Acute myocardial infarction, stress ulcer, pancreatitis, intestinal ischemia, intermittent claudication, acute tubular necrosis, postshock liver failure, and multisystem organ failure are all related to reperfusion injury. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has been identified in multiple catabolic and anabolic signaling pathways. The functions of AMPK during health and diseases are intriguing but still need further research. Except for its conventional roles as an intracellular energy switch, emerging evidence reveals the critical role of AMPK in IRI as an energy-sensing signal molecule by regulating metabolism, autophagy, oxidative stress, inflammation, and other progressions. At the same time, drugs based on AMPK for the treatment of IRI are constantly being researched and applied in clinics. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms underlying the effects of AMPK in IRI and describe the AMPK-targeting drugs in treatment, hoping to increase the understanding of AMPK in IRI and provide new insights into future clinical treatment.

[PMID: 36104681 PMCID: PMC9472426 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-022-01825-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2021] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Reperfusion of ischemic tissue has adverse impact on the myocardium. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) is a α2-adrenergic receptor (α2-AR) agonist with sedative and analgesic effects. Macrophage migration inhibition factor (MIF) is a pressure-regulating cytokine and is responsible for inflammatory and immune diseases. This study aims to reveal the consequences of Dex on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in young mice. METHODS Fifty mice were raised and examined. At the end of the experiment, all mice were euthanized. The anterior descending department of the left coronary artery in mice was under ischemia for 60 min, then the ligation line was released and reperfused for 120 min to establish the IRI model. Mice were randomly divided into Sham, control, treatment using 4,5-dihydro-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-isoxazoleacetic acid (ISO-1), Dex treatment, and Dex combined ISO-1 treatment groups. Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ATP levels were recorded. The expressions of MIF, P-adenosine monophosphate-activated kinase α (AMPKα), glucose transporter (GLUT)4, Bax and Bcl-2 were detected by Western Blot (WB). Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining was used to study cell morphology. Apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labelling (TUNEL) assay. Echocardiography was carried out at the end of reperfusion, and the infarct size was calculated by Electron microscopy. RESULTS I/R + Dex group showed significantly increased IL-6 and TNF-α levels and reduced myocardial cell necrosis and apoptosis. H&E staining showed alleviated myocardial disorder, myocardial cell swelling, myocardial fiber fracture, and inflammatory cell infiltration in I/R + Dex group. Myocardial cell necrosis and apoptosis were significantly reduced in I/R + Dex group. ATP level in myocardial tissue of mice in I/R group was substantially decreased, while that in Dex group was increased. WB results showed that MIF, P-AMPK α, GLUT4 and Bcl-2 levels were increased and Bax levels were decreased in I/R + Dex group. CONCLUSION Dex may exert myocardial protection in young mice through MIF/AMPK/GLUT4 axis.

Abstract
Background Local anesthesia has been recommended for percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) in recent years; however, the efficacy, including oxidative stress, inflammatory reactions and ventilation effects, when intravenous dexmedetomidine (DEX) is administered during PELD has not been described. Methods Sixty adult patients undergoing PELD were randomly allocated to either an intravenous DEX sedation group (Group A) or a normal saline group (Group B). Respiratory data, including minute ventilation (MV), tidal volume (TV), and respiratory rate (RR), were recorded using a respiratory volume monitor (RVM), and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) was monitored by pulse oximetry. The visual analog score (VAS) was used to assess the level of pain. The serum levels of inflammatory biomarkers including interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were to assess inflammatory reactions. The serum levels of oxidative stress biomarkers including malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) were also recorded to evaluate oxidative stress. Results There were no significant differences in RR, MV, TV and SpO2 between the two groups at any time point (P > 0.05). Group B exhibited lower serum levels of GSH-PX (P < 0.0001) and higher serum levels of MDA (p < 0.0001) than Group A at the end of surgery. Twenty-four hours after surgery, Group B exhibited higher serum levels of IL-6 (P = 0.0033), TNF-α (P = 0.0002), and MDA (P < 0.0001) and lower serum levels of GSH-PX (P < 0.0001) than Group A. In addition, Group A exhibited lower VAS (P < 0.0001) than Group B during surgery. Conclusions DEX administration using RVM not only provides analgesia without ventilatory depression but also alleviates oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions in patients undergoing PELD.

Abstract
Propofol (Pro) is well known to regulate the asleep-awake-asleep technique. Increasing indication recommends that Pro also has promising properties such as anti-oxidant and anti-inflammation belongings in several disease models. It has been described that Pro has beneficial properties against renal ischemia/reperfusion (rI/R)-mediated acute lung injury (ALI). Nevertheless, pathogenesis underlying the beneficial action of Pro on the remote ALI mediated by rI/R remains unwell unstated. In this research, we displayed that Pro administration remarkably inhibits rI/R-mediated pro-inflammatory cytokines production. Increased levels of oxidative stress were mainly decreased by Pro. Pro administration ameliorated apoptosis-related caspase-3 activation. Furthermore, the levels of crucial necroptosis-associated protein were reduced by Pro. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) inhibitor attenuated the aforementioned changes of Pro. In conclusion, these results propose that Pro attenuates rI/R-induced inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and necroptosis by up-regulation of SIRT1 in rats. Our findings disclose an original pathogenesis underlying the beneficial effect of Pro against rI/R-mediated ALI and reinforce the knowledge that Pro might be a hopeful beneficial agent for the rI/R-mediated ALI.

Abstract
Background: The activation of alveolar macrophages (AMs) modulated via leucine-rich repeat (NLR) pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation is key to the progression of renal ischemia/reperfusion (rI/R)-mediated acute lung injury (ALI). Sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) can attenuate NLRP3 inflammasome activation during I/R stress and may be an important mechanism underlying ALI pathogenesis. Penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHC), an anticholinergic drug, exerts protective effects against rI/R-mediated ALI. This study aimed to decipher the effects of PHC on SIRT1 activation and the underlying mechanism of the protective activity of PHC against rI/R-mediated ALI.Materials and methods: We used an ALI rat model and the rat AMs cell line NR8383 to assess the degree of lung injury in vivo and in vitro.Results: The results show that PHC attenuates rI/R-mediated lung injury indices, myeloperoxidase, and apoptosis in vivo. It decreases the rI/R-mediated release of prostaglandin E2 and nitric oxide, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production, and the activity of NADPH oxidase-4 in vitro. PHC ameliorates the rI/R-induced activation of the thioredoxin-interacting protein, caspase 1 (P10 unit), and NLRP3 inflammasome, along with reduced activation of interleukin-1β and interleukin-18 in vitro. We show that PHC alleviates the rI/R-induced reduction of SIRT1 and the depletion of SIRT1 eliminates the ameliorating activity of PHC on the NLRP3 inflammasome activation in vitro. Conclusions: In summary, the findings suggest that PHC ameliorates the rI/R-mediated ALI through the SIRT1-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation.

Taylor JP, Tse HM. The role of NADPH oxidases in infectious and inflammatory diseases. Redox Biol 2021; 48:102159. [PMID: 34627721 PMCID: PMC8487856 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2021.102159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 62] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2021] [Revised: 09/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/30/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases (NOX) are enzymes that generate superoxide or hydrogen peroxide from molecular oxygen utilizing NADPH as an electron donor. There are seven enzymes in the NOX family: NOX1-5 and dual oxidase (DUOX) 1-2. NOX enzymes in humans play important roles in diverse biological functions and vary in expression from tissue to tissue. Importantly, NOX2 is involved in regulating many aspects of innate and adaptive immunity, including regulation of type I interferons, the inflammasome, phagocytosis, antigen processing and presentation, and cell signaling. DUOX1 and DUOX2 play important roles in innate immune defenses at epithelial barriers. This review discusses the role of NOX enzymes in normal physiological processes as well as in disease. NOX enzymes are important in autoimmune diseases like type 1 diabetes and have also been implicated in acute lung injury caused by infection with SARS-CoV-2. Targeting NOX enzymes directly or through scavenging free radicals may be useful therapies for autoimmunity and acute lung injury where oxidative stress contributes to pathology.

Zheng X, Li J, Fan Q, Zhao X, Chen K. Dexmedetomidine alleviates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion-induced injury and Ca 2+ overload via the microRNA-346-3p/CaMKIId axis. Int J Cardiol 2021; 338:185-195. [PMID: 33731281 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2021.03.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2020] [Revised: 03/04/2021] [Accepted: 03/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) may impair cardiac functions. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is protective in various clinical cases. Therefore, this study investigated the role and mechanism of DEX in MI/R. The myocardial infarct size, apoptosis, and levels of myocardial enzymes, SOD, ROS, Ca2+, and inflammatory factors in DEX-treated MI/R rats were measured. Differentially expressed microRNAs (miRs) in DEX-treated MI/R rats were detected. miR-346-3p was intervened to assess the effects of DEX on MI/R rats. The targeted binding relationship between miR-346-3p and CaMKIId was predicted and verified. DEX effect on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced cell model was evaluated. The role of CaMKIId in DEX protection was assessed after CaMKIId overexpression in H/R cells. NF-κB pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome-related protein levels were detected. DEX alleviated the myocardial injury and Ca2+ overload in MI/R rats, as evidenced by reduced infarct size, apoptosis and levels of myocardial enzymes, ROS, Ca2+, and inflammatory factors. DEX promoted miR-346-3p expression in MI/R rats, and miR-346-3p knockdown reversed DEX protection on MI/R rats. miR-346-3p targeted CaMKIId. DEX improved H/R-induced cell injury and Ca2+ overload and inhibited NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome-related protein levels, which were all reversed by CaMKIId overexpression. DEX alleviated injury and Ca2+ overload in MI/R via regulating the miR-346-3p/CaMKIId axis and inhibiting the NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome pathway.

Abstract
Molt is a critical developmental process in crustaceans. Recent studies have shown that the hepatopancreas is an important source of innate immune molecules, yet hepatopancreatic patterns of gene expression during the molt cycle which may underlie changes in immune mechanism are unknown. In this study, we performed Illumina sequencing for the hepatopancreas of the mud crab, Scylla paramamosain during molt cycle (pre-molt stage, post-molt stage, and inter-molt stage). A total of 44.55 Gb high-quality reads were obtained from the normalized cDNA of hepatopancreas. A total of 70,591 transcripts were assembled; 55,167 unigenes were identified. Transcriptomic comparison revealed 948 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the hepatopancreas from the three molt stages. We found that genes associated with immune response patterns changed in expression during the molt cycle. Antimicrobial peptide genes, inflammatory response genes, Toll signaling pathway factors, the phenoloxidase system, antioxidant enzymes, metal-binding proteins and other immune related genes are significantly up-regulated at the post-molt stage and inter-molt stage compared with the pre-molt stage, respectively. These genes are either not expressed or are expressed at low levels at the pre-molt stage. To our knowledge, this is the first systematic transcriptome analysis of genes capable of mobilizing a hepatopancreas immune response during the molt cycle in crustaceans, and this study will contribute to a better understanding of the hepatopancreas immune system and mud crab prophylactic immune mechanisms at the post-molt stage.
