Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Efficacy of Inhaled Hydrogen on Neurologic Outcome Following Brain Ischemia During Post-Cardiac Arrest Care (HYBRID) II trial (jRCTs031180352) suggested that hydrogen inhalation may reduce post-cardiac arrest brain injury (PCABI). However, the combination of hypothermic target temperature management (TTM) and hydrogen inhalation on outcomes is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the combined effect of hydrogen inhalation and hypothermic TTM on outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). DESIGN Post hoc analysis of a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial. SETTING Fifteen Japanese ICUs. PATIENTS Cardiogenic OHCA enrolled in the HYBRID II trial. INTERVENTIONS Hydrogen mixed oxygen (hydrogen group) versus oxygen alone (control group). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS TTM was performed at a target temperature of 32-34°C (TTM32-TTM34) or 35-36°C (TTM35-TTM36) per the institutional protocol. The association between hydrogen + TTM32-TTM34 and 90-day good neurologic outcomes was analyzed using generalized estimating equations. The 90-day survival was compared between the hydrogen and control groups under TTM32-TTM34 and TTM35-TTM36, respectively. The analysis included 72 patients (hydrogen [ n = 39] and control [ n = 33] groups) with outcome data. TTM32-TTM34 was implemented in 25 (64%) and 24 (73%) patients in the hydrogen and control groups, respectively ( p = 0.46). Under TTM32-TTM34, 17 (68%) and 9 (38%) patients achieved good neurologic outcomes in the hydrogen and control groups, respectively (relative risk: 1.81 [95% CI, 1.05-3.66], p < 0.05). Hydrogen + TTM32-TTM34 was independently associated with good neurologic outcomes (adjusted odds ratio 16.10 [95% CI, 1.88-138.17], p = 0.01). However, hydrogen + TTM32-TTM34 did not improve survival compared with TTM32-TTM34 alone (adjusted hazard ratio: 0.22 [95% CI, 0.05-1.06], p = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS Hydrogen + TTM32-TTM34 was associated with improved neurologic outcomes after cardiogenic OHCA compared with TTM32-TTM34 monotherapy. Hydrogen inhalation is a promising treatment option for reducing PCABI when combined with TTM32-TTM34.

Abstract
Neutrophils are important effector cells of innate immunity and undergo several phenotypic changes after release from the bone marrow. Neutrophils with a late life cycle phenotype are often referred to as "aged" neutrophils. These neutrophils undergo functional changes that accompany stimuli of inflammation, tissue senescence and injury, inducing their maturation and senescence in the circulation and locally in damaged tissues, forming a unique late-life neutrophil phenotype. "Aged" neutrophils, although attenuated in antibacterial capacity, are more active in aging and age-related diseases, exhibit high levels of mitochondrial ROS and mitochondrial DNA leakage, promote senescence of neighboring cells, and exacerbate cardiac and vascular tissue damage, including vascular inflammation, myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis, stroke, abdominal aortic aneurysm, and SARS-CoV-2 myocarditis. In this review, we outline the phenotypic changes of "aged" neutrophils characterized by CXCR4high/CD62Llow, investigate the mechanisms driving neutrophil aging and functional transformation, and analyze the damage caused by "aged" neutrophils to various types of heart and blood vessels. Tissue injury and senescence promote neutrophil infiltration and induce neutrophil aging both in the circulation and locally in damaged tissues, resulting in an "aged" neutrophil phenotype characterized by CXCR4high/CD62Llow. We also discuss the effects of certain agents, such as neutralizing mitochondrial ROS, scavenging IsoLGs, blocking VDAC oligomers and mPTP channel activity, activating Nrf2 activity, and inhibiting neutrophil PAD4 activity, to inhibit neutrophil NET formation and ameliorate age-associated cardiovascular disease, providing a new perspective for anti-aging therapy in cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Inhalation of hydrogen (H2) gas is therapeutically effective for cerebrovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, and neonatal brain disorders including pathologies induced by anesthetic gases. To understand the mechanisms underlying the protective effects of H2 on the brain, we investigated the molecular signals affected by H2 in sevoflurane-induced neuronal cell death. We confirmed that neural progenitor cells are susceptible to sevoflurane and undergo apoptosis in the retrosplenial cortex of neonatal mice. Co-administration of 1-8% H2 gas for 3 h to sevoflurane-exposed pups suppressed elevated caspase-3-mediated apoptotic cell death and concomitantly decreased c-Jun phosphorylation and activation of the c-Jun pathway, all of which are induced by oxidative stress. Anesthesia-induced increases in lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA damage were alleviated by H2 inhalation. Phosphoproteome analysis revealed enriched clusters of differentially phosphorylated proteins in the sevoflurane-exposed neonatal brain that included proteins involved in neuronal development and synaptic signaling. H2 inhalation modified cellular transport pathways that depend on hyperphosphorylated proteins including microtubule-associated protein family. These modifications may be involved in the protective mechanisms of H2 against sevoflurane-induced neuronal cell death.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a severe post-operative complication that triggers an inflammatory response and causes severe damage. Hydrogen gas has anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic properties and has been shown to be safe in humans. The study aimed to investigate whether hydrogen gas protects against skeletal muscle I/R injury. METHODS Experimental basic research using mice. A total of 160 eight to 10 week old albino laboratory bred strain of house mice (25.8 ± 0.68 g) were used in this study. The mice were cable tied to the hindlimb under anaesthesia and then placed in an anaesthesia box filled with air and 2% isoflurane (control group); 80 mice were additionally subjected to 1.3% hydrogen gas in this mix (hydrogen group). After two hours, the cable ties were removed to initiate reperfusion, and hydrogen inhalation lasted for six hours in the hydrogen group. After six hours, the mice were taken out of the box and kept in cages under standard conditions until time for observation at 16 different time points after reperfusion: zero, two, four, six, eight, and 10 hours and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, 14, 21, and 28 days. Five mice were sacrificed using excess anaesthesia at each time point, and the bilateral hindlimb tissues were harvested. The inflammatory effects of the I/R injury were assessed by evaluating serum interleukin-6 concentrations using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, as well as histological and immunohistochemical analyses. Untreated mice with I/R injury were used as controls. RESULTS Hydrogen gas showed protective effects associated with a reduction in inflammatory cell infiltration (neutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes), a reduced area of damaged muscle, maintenance of normal muscle cells, and replacement of damaged muscle cells with neoplastic myocytes. CONCLUSION Inhalation of hydrogen gas had a protective effect against hindlimb I/R injury in mice, in part by reducing inflammatory cell infiltration and in part by preserving normal muscle cells.

Icariside II alleviates lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting lung epithelial inflammatory and immune responses mediated by neutrophil extracellular traps. Life Sci 2024; 346:122648. [PMID: 38631668 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2024.122648] [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: 02/24/2024] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
AIMS Acute lung injury (ALI) is a life-threatening lung disease characterized by inflammatory cell infiltration and lung epithelial injury. Icariside II (ICS II), one of the main active ingredients of Herba Epimedii, exhibits anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. However, the effect and mechanism of ICS II in ALI remain unclear. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the pharmacological effect and underlying mechanism of ICS II in ALI. MAIN METHODS Models of neutrophil-like cells, human peripheral blood neutrophils, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI mouse model were utilized. RT-qPCR and Western blotting determined the gene and protein expression levels. Protein distribution and quantification were analyzed by immunofluorescence. KEY FINDINGS ICS II significantly reduced lung histopathological damage, edema, and inflammatory cell infiltration, and it reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines in ALI. There is an excessive activation of neutrophils leading to a significant production of NETs in ALI mice, a process mitigated by the administration of ICS II. In vivo and in vitro studies found that ICS II could decrease NET formation by targeting neutrophil C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4). Further data showed that ICS II reduces the overproduction of dsDNA, a NETs-related component, thereby suppressing cGAS/STING/NF-κB signalling pathway activation and inflammatory mediators release in lung epithelial cells. SIGNIFICANCE This study suggested that ICS II may alleviate LPS-induced ALI by modulating the inflammatory response, indicating its potential as a therapeutic agent for ALI treatment.

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have emerged as a critical factor in malignant hematologic disease pathogenesis. These structures, comprising DNA, histones, and cytoplasmic proteins, were initially recognized for their role in immune defense against microbial threats. Growing evidence suggests that NETs contribute to malignant cell progression and dissemination, representing a double-edged sword. However, there is a paucity of reports on its involvement in hematological disorders. A comprehensive understanding of the intricate relationship between malignant cells and NETs is necessary to explore effective therapeutic strategies. This review highlights NET formation and mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis. Moreover, we discuss recent advancements in targeted inhibitor development for selective NET disruption, empowering precise design and efficacious therapeutic interventions for malignant hematologic diseases.

Abstract
Purpose Studies have shown that neutrophil-mediated formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) leads to increased inflammatory response and cellular tissue damage during myocardial infarction (MI). We aimed to identify and validate possible hub genes in the process of NETs-mediated cell damage. Methods We performed an immune cell infiltration analysis of the MI transcriptome dataset based on CIBERSORT and ssGSEA algorithms. Gene expression profiles of NETs formation (GSE178883) were used to analyze the physiological processes of peripheral blood neutrophils after phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulation. Bioinformatics and machine learning algorithms were utilized to find candidate hub genes based on NETs-related genes and transcriptome datasets (GSE66360 and GSE179828). We generated the receiver operating curve (ROC) to evaluate the diagnostic value of hub genes. Next, the correlation between hub genes and immune cells was analyzed using CIBERSORT, ssGSEA and xCell algorithms. Finally, we used quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry to verify gene expression. Results Immune cell infiltration analysis revealed that inflammatory cells such as neutrophils were highly expressed in the peripheral blood of patients with MI. Functional analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in GSE178883 indicated that the potential pathogenesis lies in immune terms. Using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and machine learning algorithms, we finally identified the seven hub genes (FCAR, IL1B, MMP9, NFIL3, CXCL2, ICAM1, and ZFP36). The qRT-PCR results showed that IL-1B, MMP9, and NFIL3 mRNA expression was up-regulated in the MI group compared to the control. Immunohistochemical results showed high MMP9, IL-1B, and NFIL3 expression in the infarcted area compared to the non-infarcted area and sham-operated groups. Conclusion We identified seven hub genes associated with NETs-mediated cellular damage during MI. Our results may provide insights into the mechanisms of neutrophil-mediated cell injury during MI.

Abstract
Excessive induction of inflammatory and immune responses is widely considered as one of vital factors contributing to the pathogenesis and progression of central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Neutrophils are well-studied members of inflammatory and immune cell family, contributing to the innate and adaptive immunity. Neutrophil-released neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play an important role in the regulation of various kinds of diseases, including CNS diseases. In this review, current knowledge on the biological features of NETs will be introduced. In addition, the role of NETs in several popular and well-studied CNS diseases including cerebral stroke, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and neurological cancers will be described and discussed through the reviewing of previous related studies.

Abstract
Following an ocular chemical injury, the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) triggers an innate immune cascade fibrotic effect involving macrophages (Mø), which limits corneal repair. However, the interplay and mechanisms between NETs and macrophages, as well as the coordination between the innate immunity and corneal repair, remain challenging issues. Using a co-culture system, we report that chemical stimulation exacerbates the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within the polymorphonuclear neutrophils, leading to NET formation and the activation of M2 macrophages, ultimately inducing pathological fibrosis of the ocular surface through the IL-10/STAT3/TGF-β1/Smad2 axis. Inspired by the locally formed acidic microenvironment mediated by innate acute inflammatory stimulation, we further integrate sericin with oxidized chitosan nanoparticles loaded with black phosphorus quantum dots (BPQDs) using Schiff base chemistry to construct a functional pH-responsive hydrogel. Following corneal injury, the hydrogel selectively releases BPQDs in response to the acidic environment, inhibiting the innate immune cascade fibrosis triggered by the PMN-ROS-NETs. Thus, corneal pathological fibrosis is alleviated and reshaping of the ocular surface takes place. These results represent a refinement of the mechanism of inherent immune effector cell interactions, and provide new research ideas for the construction of nano biomaterials that regulate pathological fibrosis.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage is a common neurological disease, and its pathological mechanism is complex. As the first recruited leukocyte subtype after intracerebral hemorrhage, neutrophils play an important role in tissue damage. In the past, it was considered that neutrophils performed their functions through phagocytosis, chemotaxis, and degranulation. In recent years, studies have found that neutrophils also have the function of secreting extracellular traps. Extracellular traps are fibrous structure composed of chromatin and granular proteins, which plays an important role in innate immunity. Studies have shown a large number of neutrophil extracellular traps in hematoma samples, plasma samples, and drainage samples after intracerebral hemorrhage. In this paper, we summarized the related mechanisms of neutrophil external traps and injury after intracerebral hemorrhage. Neutrophil extracellular traps are involved in the process of brain injury after intracerebral hemorrhage. The application of related inhibitors to inhibit the formation of neutrophil external traps or promote their dissolution can effectively alleviate the pathological damage caused by intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Effects of body size reduction on electrocardiographic indices were examined using microminipigs in comparison with Clawn miniature swine (Clawn). Electrocardiogram was recorded using Holter electrocardiograph in conscious state for 24 hr for microminipigs (male: 11.6 ± 0.1 kg, 12-17 months, n=5; and female: 9.9 ± 0.4 kg, 6 months, n=5) and Clawn (female: 20.3 ± 0.4 kg, 8-9 months, n=8). Microminipig had shorter PR interval and QRS width than Clawn, whereas no significant difference was detected in JTcF/QTcF between them. Ratios of PR interval, QRS width, and body weight cubic root for microminipigs to Clawn ranged between 0.713 and 0.830. These findings indicate that PR interval and QRS width will depend on distance for excitatory current propagation, whereas JTcF/QTcF may be governed by local electrical activities.

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) as special release products of neutrophils have received extensive attention. They are composed of decondensed chromatin and coated with nucleoproteins, including histones and some granulosa proteins. NETs can form a network structure to effectively capture and eliminate pathogens and prevent their spread. Not only that, recent studies have shown that NETs also play an important role in venous thrombosis. This review provides the most important updated evidence regarding the mechanism of NETs formation and the role of NETs in the process of venous thrombosis. The potential prophylactic and therapeutic value of NETs in venous thrombotic disease will also be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with mesenteric ischemia frequently suffer from bowel necrosis even after revascularization. Hydrogen gas has showed promising effects for ischemia-reperfusion injury by reducing reactive oxygen species in various animal and clinical studies. We examined intestinal tissue injury by ischemia and reperfusion under continuous initiation of 3% hydrogen gas.
AIM To clarify the treatment effects and target cells of hydrogen gas for mesenteric ischemia.
METHODS Three rat groups underwent 60-min mesenteric artery occlusion (ischemia), 60-min reperfusion following 60-min occlusion (reperfusion), or ischemia-reperfusion with the same duration under continuous 3% hydrogen gas inhalation (hydrogen). The distal ileum was harvested. Immunofluorescence staining with caspase-3 and leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein-coupled 5 (LGR5), a specific marker of intestinal stem cell, was conducted to evaluate the injury location and cell types protected by hydrogen. mRNA expressions of LGR5, olfactomedin 4 (OLFM4), hairy and enhancer of split 1, Jagged 2, and Neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 1 were measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Tissue oxidative stress was analyzed with immunostaining for 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). Systemic oxidative stress was evaluated by plasma 8-OHdG.
RESULTS Ischemia damaged the epithelial layer at the tip of the villi, whereas reperfusion induced extensive apoptosis of the cells at the crypt base, which were identified as intestinal stem cells with double immunofluorescence stain. Hydrogen mitigated such apoptosis at the crypt base, and the LGR5 expression of the tissues was higher in the hydrogen group than in the reperfusion group. OLFM4 was also relatively higher in the hydrogen group, whereas other measured RNAs were comparable between the groups. 8-OHdG concentration was high in the reperfusion group, which was reduced by hydrogen, particularly at the crypt base. Serum 8-OHdG concentrations were relatively higher in both reperfusion and hydrogen groups without significance.
CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that hydrogen gas inhalation preserves intestinal stem cells and mitigates oxidative stress caused by mesenteric ischemia and reperfusion.

Pharmacokinetics of hydrogen administered intraperitoneally as hydrogen-rich saline and its effect on ischemic neuronal cell death in the brain in gerbils. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0279410.

Abstract
Intraperitoneal administration of hydrogen (H2)-containing saline inhibited neuronal cell death in ischemic stroke in a number of animal models, but it is unknown whether H2 is absorbed from the abdominal cavity into the blood and reaches the brain. In this study, we investigated whether intraperitoneal administration of saline containing H2 inhibits neuronal cell death caused by cerebral ischemia and measured the concentration of H2 in the carotid artery and inferior vena cava (IVC). Gerbils were subjected to transient unilateral cerebral ischemia twice, and saline or H2-rich saline was administered intraperitoneally three or seven times every 12 hours. We evaluated the number of apoptotic cells in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex on day 3 and the number of viable neurons in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex on day 7. In addition, a single dose of saline or H2-rich saline was administered intraperitoneally, and blood H2 levels in the carotid artery and IVC were measured. On day 3 of ischemia/reperfusion, the number of neurons undergoing apoptosis in the cortex was significantly lower in the H2-rich saline group than in the saline group, and on day 7, the number of viable neurons in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex was significantly higher in the H2-rich saline group. Intraperitoneal administration of H2-rich saline resulted in large increases in H2 concentration in the IVC ranging from 0.00183 mg/L (0.114%) to 0.00725 mg/L (0.453%). In contrast, carotid H2 concentrations remained in the range of 0.00008 mg/L (0.0049%) to 0.00023 (0.0146%). On average, H2 concentrations in carotid artery were 0.04 times lower than in IVC. These results indicate that intraperitoneal administration of H2-rich saline significantly suppresses neuronal cell death after cerebral ischemia, even though H2 hardly reaches the brain.

Abstract
Recent advances in pharmacotherapy have markedly improved the prognosis of cardiovascular disease (CVD) but have not completely conquered it. Therapies targeting the NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 inflammasome and its downstream cytokines have proven effective in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular events, suggesting that inflammation is a target for treating residual risk in CVD. Neutrophil-induced inflammation has long been recognized as important in the pathogenesis of CVD. Circadian rhythm-related and disease-specific microenvironment changes give rise to neutrophil diversity. Neutrophils are primed by various stimuli, such as chemokines, cytokines, and damage-related molecular patterns, and the activated neutrophils contribute to the inflammatory response in CVD through degranulation, phagocytosis, reactive oxygen species generation, and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). In particular, NETs promote immunothrombosis through the interaction with vascular endothelial cells and platelets and are implicated in the development of various types of CVD, such as acute coronary syndrome, deep vein thrombosis, and heart failure. NETs are promising candidates for anti-inflammatory therapy in CVD, and their efficacy has already been demonstrated in various animal models of the disease; however, they have yet to be clinically applied in humans. This narrative review discusses the diversity and complexity of neutrophils in the trajectory of CVD, the therapeutic potential of targeting NETs, and the related clinical issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As an antioxidant, hydrogen (H2) can selectively react with the highly toxic hydroxyl radical (·OH) in tumor cells to break the balance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cause oxidative stress. However, due to the high diffusibility and storage difficulty of hydrogen, it is impossible to achieve long-term release at the tumor site, which highly limited their therapeutic effect. RESULTS Photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) release a large amount of hydrogen to break the balance of oxidative stress. In addition, as a nontoxic bacterium, PSB could stimulate the immune response and increase the infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. More interestingly, we found that hydrogen therapy induced by our live PSB did not lead to the up-regulation of PD-L1 after stimulating the immune response, which could avoid the tumor immune escape. CONCLUSION Hydrogen-immunotherapy significantly kills tumor cells. We believe that our live microbial hydrogen production system provides a new strategy for cancer hydrogen treatment combining with enhanced immunotherapy without up-regulating PD-L1.
