Diannexin alleviates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by orchestrating cardiomyocyte oxidative damage, macrophage polarization and fibrotic process by TLR4-NF-kB-mediated inactivation of NLRP3 inflammasome. Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 130:111668. [PMID: 38417368 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.111668] [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: 11/12/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/01/2024]
Abstract
Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a pathogenic mechanism of myocardial infarction and heart failure, constituting a major health concern globally. Diannexin is a homodimer of recombinant human annexin V and elicits important roles in several I/R injuries. Nevertheless, its function in MI/R remains elusive. Here, Diannexin alleviated simulated I/R (SI/R)-induced cardiomyocyte death and oxidative injury by increasing cell viability and inhibiting cell apoptosis, ROS, lactate dehydrogenase, malondialdehyde production and anti-oxidative SOD activity. Diannexin inhibited SI/R-induced expression of fibrotic protein collagen I and collagen III. Furthermore, Diannexin suppressed LPS-induced macrophage polarization towards pro-inflammatory M1-like phenotype and enhanced IL-4-evoked anti-inflammatory M2 polarization. Concomitantly, Diannexin inhibited SI/R exposure-induced macrophage polarization to M1 subtypes. Importantly, conditioned medium (CM) from SI/R-stimulated macrophages evoked cardiomyocyte apoptosis, which was reversed when cells were co-cultured with CM from Diannexin-treated macrophages under SI/R conditions. Mechanically, the activation of TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome signaling in SI/R-treated cells was mitigated by Diannexin. Reactivating this pathway antagonized the protective effects of Diannexin on SI/R-induced cardiomyocyte oxidative injury, fibrotic protein expression and macrophage polarization and M1 macrophage-induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes. In vivo, Diannexin alleviated abnormal cardiac structure, dysfunction and collagen position in MI/R mice. Additionally, Diannexin reduced M1-polarized and elevated M2-polarized macrophages in heart tissues at five days post-MI/R. The activation of TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in MI/R mice was attenuated after Diannexin administration. Together, Diannexin may alleviate the development of MI/R injury by directly regulating cardiomyocyte oxidative injury, fibrotic potential and indirectly affecting macrophage polarization-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis, indicating a promising therapeutic strategy for MI/R.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction is one of the most important causes of death in the world, causing a huge health and economic burden to the world. It is still a ticklish problem how to effectively prevent reperfusion injury while recovering the blood flow of ischemic myocardium. During the process of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI), the modulation of immune cells plays an important role. Monocyte/macrophage, neutrophils and endothelial cells initiate the inflammatory response and induce the release of various inflammatory cytokines, resulting in increased vascular permeability, tissue edema and damage. Meanwhile, T cells were recruited to impaired myocardium and release pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines. T cells and macrophages play important roles in keeping cardiac homeostasis and orchestrate tissue repair. T cells differentiation and macrophages polarization precisely regulates the tissue microenvironment in MI/RI, and shows cross action, but the mechanism is unclear. To identify potential intervention targets and propose ideas for treatment and prevention of MI/RI, this review explores the crosstalk between T lymphocytes and macrophages in MI/RI.

Combination Therapy of Metformin and p-Coumaric Acid Mitigates Metabolic Dysfunction Associated with Obesity and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in High-Fat Diet Obese C57BL/6 Mice. J Nutr Biochem 2023; 118:109369. [PMID: 37100305 DOI: 10.1016/j.jnutbio.2023.109369] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2023]
Abstract
Metformin (MET) has been demonstrated to have favorable impact on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); however, the combined effect of this drug with p-coumaric acid (PCA) on liver steatosis is unclear. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the combined effects of MET and PCA on NAFLD in a high-fat diet (HFD)-induced NAFLD mouse model. The obese mice received MET (230 mg/kg), PCA (200 mg/kg) monotherapies, and MET combination with PCA in the diet for 10 weeks. Our results showed that the combination of MET and PCA markedly ameliorated weight gain and fat deposition in HFD fed mice. Furthermore, the combination of MET and PCA lowered liver triglyceride (TG) content which was accompanied by decreased expression of lipogenic and increased expression of β-oxidation related genes and proteins. In addition, combination therapy of MET and PCA mitigated liver inflammation through inhibiting hepatic macrophage infiltration (F4/80), switching macrophage from M1 into M2 phenotype, and ameliorating nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activity in comparison with the monotherapy of MET or PCA. Furthermore, we found that MET and PCA combination therapy upregulated thermogenesis-related genes in BAT and sWAT. Combination therapy results in stimulating brown-like adipocyte (beige) formation in the sWAT of HFD mice. Taken together, these findings indicate that MET combined with PCA can improve NAFLD through decreasing lipid accumulation, inhibiting inflammation and inducing thermogenesis, and adipose tissue browning.

Abstract
Lung macrophages (Mφs) are essential for pulmonary innate immunity and host defense due to their dynamic polarization and phenotype shifts. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have secretory, immunomodulatory, and tissue-reparative properties and have shown promise in acute and chronic inflammatory lung diseases and in COVID-19. Many beneficial effects of MSCs are mediated through their interaction with resident alveolar and pulmonary interstitial Mφs. Bidirectional MSC-Mφ communication is achieved through direct contact, soluble factor secretion/activation, and organelle transfer. The lung microenvironment facilitates MSC secretion of factors that result in Mφ polarization towards an immunosuppressive M2-like phenotype for the restoration of tissue homeostasis. M2-like Mφ in turn can affect the MSC immune regulatory function in MSC engraftment and tissue reparatory effects. This review article highlights the mechanisms of crosstalk between MSCs and Mφs and the potential role of their interaction in lung repair in inflammatory lung diseases.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is of the most common causes of acute kidney injury (AKI); nevertheless, the mechanisms responsible for both early kidney injury and the reparative phase are not fully recognised. The inflammatory response following ischemia is characterised by the crosstalk between cells belonging to the innate immune system-dendritic cells (DCs), macrophages, neutrophils, natural killer (NK) cells, and renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs). A tough inflammatory response can damage the renal tissue; it may also have a protective effect leading to the repair after IRI. Indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), the principal enzyme of the kynurenine pathway (KP), has a broad spectrum of immunological activity from stimulation to immunosuppressive activity in inflamed areas. IDO1 expression occurs in cells of the innate immunity and RTECs during IRI, resulting in local tryptophan (TRP) depletion and generation of kynurenines, and both of these mechanisms contribute to the immunosuppressive effect. Nonetheless, it is unknown if the above mechanism can play a harmful or preventive role in IRI-induced AKI. Despite the scarcity of literature in this field, the current review attempts to present a possible role of IDO1 activation in the regulation of the innate immune system in IRI-induced AKI.

Abstract
P-coumaric acid occurs as a common dietary polyphenol distributed in fruits, vegetables, and cereals in associated and free form. The toxicity profile of the drug is very low and it exhibits many pharmacological actions (antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antimicrobial activity, antidiabetic, anticancer, and antioxidant effect). P-coumaric acid also acts as a free radical scavenger and inhibits various enzymes which generate free radicals. It is also used as the raw material for the preparation of preservatives, vanillin, sports foods, skin defense agents, and as a cross-linker for the formation of edible films and food gels. The current study is based upon biological effectiveness, molecular docking, SAR, sources of p-coumaric acid, and related derivatives.
