Toll-Like Receptor 4 Exacerbates Mycoplasma pneumoniaevia Promoting Transcription Factor EB-Mediated Autophagy. CONTRAST MEDIA & MOLECULAR IMAGING 2022; 2022:3357694. [PMID: 35965629 PMCID: PMC9357725 DOI: 10.1155/2022/3357694] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2022] [Revised: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 06/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) is the most common cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an essential role in pneumonia. The purpose of this study was to investigate the roles of TLR4 in M. pneumoniae. Mice were administrated with 100 μl (1 × 107 ccu/ml) of M. pneumoniae. HE staining was applied for histological analysis. The protein expression was determined by western blot. The cytokine level was detected by ELISA. The results showed that TLR4-deficient mice were protected from M. pneumoniae. However, downregulation of TLR4 inhibited inflammatory response and autophagy. Moreover, transcription factor EB (TFEB) participated in M. pneumoniae-induced inflammatory response and autophagy, while knockdown of TLR4 downregulated TFEB and its nuclear translocation.

Abstract
Respiratory viruses represent a severe public health risk worldwide, and the research contribution to tackle the current pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 is one of the main targets among the scientific community. In this regard, experts from different fields have gathered to confront this catastrophic pandemic. This review illustrates how nanotechnology intervention could be valuable in solving this difficult situation, and the state of the art of Zn-based nanostructures are discussed in detail. For virus detection, learning from the experience of other respiratory viruses such as influenza, the potential use of Zn nanomaterials as suitable sensing platforms to recognize the S1 spike protein in SARS-CoV-2 are shown. Furthermore, a discussion about the antiviral mechanisms reported for ZnO nanostructures is included, which can help develop surface disinfectants and protective coatings. At the same time, the properties of Zn-based materials as supplements for reducing viral activity and the recovery of infected patients are illustrated. Within the scope of noble adjuvants to improve the immune response, the ZnO NPs properties as immunomodulators are explained, and potential prototypes of nanoengineered particles with metallic cations (like Zn2+) are suggested. Therefore, using Zn-associated nanomaterials from detection to disinfection, supplementation, and immunomodulation opens a wide area of opportunities to combat these emerging respiratory viruses. Finally, the attractive properties of these nanomaterials can be extrapolated to new clinical challenges.

J Clin Lab Anal 2021; 35:e23760. [PMID: 33724522 PMCID: PMC8128307 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.23760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2020] [Revised: 02/09/2021] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Identifying new molecular diagnostic markers for Mycoplasma Pneumoniae Pneumonia (MPP) has always been an essential topic since MPP cases have increased every year, especially among children. Here, we examined the correlation between serum level of Purinergic receptor P2X7, vitamin A, and 25‐hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) and the severity of MPP, aiming to identify molecules that have the potential to become diagnostic markers. Methods This study was conducted on 186 cases aged 1–14 (136 MPP and 50 non‐MPP patients). Serum levels of Purinergic receptor P2X7, vitamin A, 25(OH)D, and multiple inflammatory and immune factors were measured, compared, and tested for statistical significance. Results Serum P2X7, tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α), and interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) levels were significantly increased in severe MPP patients, while serum vitamin A, 25(OH)D, IgA, and IgG levels were significantly decreased. Conclusion Our results demonstrated a positive correlation between serum P2X7 level and the severity of MPP, and negative correlations between serum levels of vitamin A and 25(OH)D and the severity of MPP, suggesting that high serum levels of P2X7 and low serum levels of vitamin A and 25(OH)D may indicate relatively severer MPP.
