Abstract
The intestine defends against pathogenic microbial invasion via the secretion of host defense peptides (HDPs). Nutritional immunomodulation can stimulate the expression of endogenous HDPs and enhance the body's immune defense, representing a novel non-antibiotic strategy for disease prevention. The project aims to explore the regulatory mechanism of protegrin-1 (PG-1) expression using sodium phenylbutyrate (PBA) by omics sequencing technology and further investigate the role of key regulatory genes on intestinal health. The results showed that PBA promoted PG-1 expression in intestinal epithelial cells based on cell density through epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and G protein-coupled receptor (GPR43). Transcriptome sequencing and microRNA sequencing revealed that C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2) exhibited interactions with PG-1. Pre-treatment cells with a CXCR2 inhibitor (SB225002) effectively suppressed the induction of PG-1 by PBA. Furthermore, SB225002 significantly suppressed the gene expression of HDPs in the jejunum of mice without influencing on the morphology, number of goblet cells, and proliferation of the intestine. CXCR2 inhibition significantly reduced the expression of HDPs during E. coli infection, and resulted in the edema of jejunal epithelial cells. The 16S rDNA analysis of cecal contents showed that the E. coli and SB225002 treatments changed gut microbiota diversity and composition at different taxonomic levels. Correlation analysis suggested a potential regulatory relationship between gut microbiota and HDPs. To that end, a gene involved in the HDP expression, CXCR2, has been identified in the study, which contributes to improving intestinal immune function. PBA may be used as a functional additive to regulate intestinal mucosal function, thereby enhancing the health of the intestinal and host.

[PMID: 38790796 PMCID: PMC11120446 DOI: 10.3390/foods13101496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to examine the potential impact of the intervention of Lactiplantibacillus plantatum HFY11 (LP-HFY11) on colitis using in vivo animal trials. The impact of LP-HFY11 intervention on colitis was determined by measuring the levels of relevant indicators in the intestine, colon, and blood after oxazolone-induced colitis in BALB/c mice. The results of the trial show that LP-HFY11 improved the colon weight-to-length ratio, reduced the colitis-induced colon length shortening, and reduced colonic abstinence. Furthermore, it decreased the levels of myeloperoxidase, nitric oxide, and malondialdehyde activities while increasing the glutathione content in the colon tissue of colitis-affected animals. LP-HFY11 lowered the interleukin-10 (IL-10) level and increased the IL-2 level in the serum of colitis mice. LP-HFY11 also upregulated the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, c-Kit, and stem cell factor (SCF), and downregulated the expression of IL-8, C-X-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CXCR2), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the colon tissue of mice with colitis. LP-HFY11 decreased the expression of Firmicutes in the gut while increasing the expression of Bacteroidetes, Bifidobacteria, and Lactobacillus. This indicates that LP-HFY11 could control physiological alterations in the serum and colon tissue, as well as the expression of gut microorganism.

Abstract
Nowadays, there is an increasing concern regarding traumatic brain injury (TBI) worldwide since substantial morbidity is observed after it, and the long-term consequences that are not yet fully recognized. A number of cellular pathways related to the secondary injury in brain have been identified, including free radical production (owing to mitochondrial dysfunction), excitotoxicity (regulated by excitatory neurotransmitters), apoptosis, and neuroinflammatory responses (as a result of activation of the immune system and central nervous system). In this context, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) maintain a fundamental contribution to post-transcriptional regulation. It has been shown that mammalian brains express high levels of ncRNAs that are involved in several brain physiological processes. Furthermore, altered levels of ncRNA expression have been found in those with traumatic as well non-traumatic brain injuries. The current review highlights the primary molecular mechanisms participated in TBI that describes the latest and novel results about changes and role of ncRNAs in TBI in both clinical and experimental research.

Diarrheal pathogenesis in Salmonella infection may result from an imbalance in intestinal epithelial differentiation through reduced Notch signaling. J Physiol 2022; 600:1851-1865. [PMID: 35100665 DOI: 10.1113/jp282585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2021] [Accepted: 01/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
KEY POINTS Salmonella is a leading foodborne pathogen known to cause high chloride content diarrhea. Salmonella infection of murine enteroid-derived monolayers decreased DRA expression. Salmonella infection resulted in upregulation of the secretory epithelial marker ATOH1, the goblet cell marker Muc2, and the enteroendocrine cell marker ChgA. Downregulation of DRA may result from infection-induced Notch inhibition, as reflected by decreased expression of Notch intracellular domain and Hes1, as well as from decreased HNF1α signaling. The imbalance in intestinal epithelial differentiation favoring secretory over absorptive cell types is a possible mechanism by which Salmonella elicits diarrhea and may be relevant therapeutically. ABSTRACT Infections with non-typhoidal Salmonella spp. represent the most burdensome foodborne illnesses worldwide, yet despite their prevalence, the mechanism through which Salmonella elicits diarrhea is not entirely known. Intestinal ion transporters play important roles in fluid and electrolyte homeostasis in the intestine. We have previously shown that infection with Salmonella caused decreased colonic expression of the chloride/bicarbonate exchanger SLC26A3 (Down-Regulated in Adenoma; DRA) in a mouse model. In this study, we focused on the mechanism of DRA downregulation during Salmonella infection, by using murine epithelial enteroid-derived monolayers (EDM). The decrease in DRA expression caused by infection was recapitulated in EDM and accompanied by increased expression of ATOH1, the goblet cell marker Muc2, and the enteroendocrine cell marker ChgA. This suggested biased epithelial differentiation towards the secretory, rather than absorptive phenotype. In addition, the downstream Notch effector, Notch Intracellular Domain (NICD) and Hes1 were decreased following Salmonella infection. The relevance of Notch signaling was further investigated using a γ-secretase inhibitor, which recapitulated the downregulation in Hes1 and DRA as well as upregulation in ATOH1 and Muc2 seen following infection. Our findings suggest that Salmonella infection may result in a shift from absorptive to secretory cell types through Notch inhibition, which explains why there is a decreased capacity for absorption and ultimately the accumulation of diarrheal fluid. Our work also shows the value of EDM as a model to investigate mechanisms that might be targeted for therapy of diarrhea caused by Salmonella infection. Abstract figure legend Upon infection of the intestinal epithelium with Salmonella, diarrhea may be explained by an imbalance of intestinal epithelial differentiation. Downregulation of cell-fate commitment to the absorptive lineage, as reflected by decreased Hes1 and DRA, was observed. Conversely, upregulation of epithelial differentiation into secretory cell types was observed, as reflected by increased ATOH1, Muc2, and ChgA. This article is protected by copyright.

Abstract
Avian salmonellosis caused by Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) and Pullorum (S. Pullorum) remains a big threat to the poultry industry and public hygiene. AvrA is an effector involved in inhibiting inflammation. Compared to AvrA from S. Enteritidis (SE-AvrA), the AvrA from S. Pullorum (SP-AvrA) lacks ten amino acids at the C-terminal. In this study, we compared the anti-inflammatory response induced by SP-AvrA to that of SE-AvrA. Transient expression of SP-AvrA in epithelial cells resulted in significantly weaker inhibition of NF-κB pathway activation when treated with TNF-α compared to the inhibition by SE-AvrA. SP-AvrA expression in the S. Enteritidis resulted in weaker suppression of NF-κB pathway in infected HeLa cells compared to SE-AvrA expression in the cells, while SP-AvrA expressed in S. Pullorum C79-13 suppressed NF-κB activation in infected HeLa and Caco 2 BBE cells to a greater extent than did SE-AvrA because of the higher expression of SP-AvrA than SE-AvrA in S. Pullorum. Further analysis demonstrated that the inhibition of NF-κB pathway in Salmonella-infected cells corresponded to the downregulation of the p-JNK and Beclin-1 protein molecules. Our study reveals that AvrA modifies the anti-inflammatory response in a manner dependent on the Salmonella serotype through inhibition of NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
The transport of electrolytes and fluid by the intestinal epithelium is critical in health to maintain appropriate levels of fluidity of the intestinal contents. The transport mechanisms that underlie this physiological process are also subject to derangement in various digestive disease states, such as diarrheal illnesses. This article summarizes the 2019 Hans Ussing Lecture of the Epithelial Transport Group of the American Physiological Society and discusses some pathways by which intestinal transport is dysregulated, particularly in the setting of infection with the diarrheal pathogen, Salmonella, and in patients treated with small-molecule inhibitors of the tyrosine kinase activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFr-TKI). The burdensome diarrhea in patients infected with Salmonella may be attributable to decreased expression of the chloride-bicarbonate exchanger downregulated in adenoma (DRA) that participates in electroneutral NaCl absorption. This outcome is possibly secondary to increased epithelial proliferation and/or decreased epithelial differentiation that occurs following infection. Conversely, the diarrheal side effects of cancer treatment with EGFr-TKI may be related to the known ability of EGFr-associated signaling to reduce calcium-dependent chloride secretion. Overall, the findings described may suggest targets for therapeutic intervention in a variety of diarrheal disease states.

Abstract
Circular RNAs are an increasingly important topic in non-coding RNA biology, drawing considerable attention in recent years. Accumulating evidence suggests a critical role for circular RNAs in both early and latent stages of disease pathogenesis. Circular RNAs are abundantly expressed in brain tissue, with significant implications for neural development and disease progression. Disruption of these processes, including those seen in response to brain injury, can have serious consequences such as hemiplegia, aphasia, coma, and death. In this review, we describe the role of circular RNAs in the context of brain injury and explore the potential connection between circular RNAs, brain hypoxic ischemic injury, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and traumatic injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Circular RNA (circRNA) is an important type of non-coding RNA that has not been widely researched in traumatic brain injury (TBI). The present study aimd to detect the altered circRNA expression around an injury site in the mouse cerebral cortex after TBI and explore its potential functions. METHOD C57BL/6 mice were used to construct a controlled cortical impact (CCI) model to simulate TBI. At 24 h post-TBI, the cortex around the injury site was collected, and the total RNA was extracted to perform RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). The differentially expressed circRNAs were determined according to the following criteria: |log2(fold change)| > 1, P < .05 and FDR < 0.05. Among them, circRNA chr8_87,859,283-87,904,548 was preliminarily explored to determine its function. RESULTS A total of 8036 altered circRNAs were discovered, and among them, 16 were significantly changed (5 up-regulated and 11 down-regulated). The circRNA chr8_87,859,283-87,904,548 significantly increased by approximately 4 times in the cerebral cortex around the injury site after TBI and promoted neuro-inflammation through increasing the CXCR2 protein by sponging mmu-let-7a-5p. As a result, the increased circRNA chr8_87,859,283-87,904,548 blocked the restoration of neurological function after TBI. CONCLUSION Many circRNAs are significantly up-regulated or down-regulated in the traumatic cerebral penumbra cortex after TBI. Among them, the circRNA chr8_87,859,283-87,904,548 potentially plays a pro-inflammatory role, which may have a deleterious effect on neurological restoration after TBI. .

Abstract
Every year, enteric infections and associated diarrhea kill millions of people. The situation is compounded by increases in the number of enteric pathogens that are acquiring resistance to antibiotics, as well as (hitherto) a relative paucity of information on host molecular targets that may contribute to diarrhea. Many forms of diarrheal disease depend on the dysregulation of intestinal ion transporters, and an associated imbalance between secretory and absorptive functions of the intestinal epithelium. A number of major transporters have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diarrheal diseases and thus an understanding of their expression, localization, and regulation after infection with various bacteria, viruses, and protozoa likely will prove critical in designing new therapies. This article surveys our understanding of transporters that are modulated by specific pathogens and the mechanism(s) involved, thereby illuminating targets that might be exploited for new therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to explore the correlation between HLA-B27 and the intracellular elimination, replication, and trafficking of Salmonella enteritidis (S. enteritidis) collected from patients with reactive arthritis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Confocal microscopy, flow cytometry, and sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were employed in this study to evaluate the localization of proteins of interest, to assess the intracellular trafficking of S. enteritidis, and to measure the production of cytokines of interest. RESULTS HLA-B27 was negatively associated with intracellular S. enteritidis elimination in healthy human monocytes/macrophages. In S. enteritidis infected monocytes/macrophages, HLA-27B was also negatively correlated with bacteria elimination but positively related to bacteria replication. S. enteritidis did not co-localize with NRAMP1 and LAMP1/2 in HLA-B27 cells. S. enteritidis did not co-exist with transferrin or dextran within HLA-B27 and A2 cells. CONCLUSIONS HLA-B27 is closely associated with the intracellular elimination and replication of S. enteritidis. Replicated bacteria in HLA-B27 monocytic cells were located within unique vacuoles rather than disturbing host endocytosis.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica remains an important food borne pathogen in all regions of the world with S. Typhimurium as one of the most frequent serovars causing food borne disease. Since the majority of human cases are caused by food of animal origin, there has been a high interest in understanding how S. Typhimurium interacts with the animal host, mostly focusing on factors that allow it to breach host barriers and to manipulate host cells to the benefit of itself. Up to recently, such studies have ignored the metabolic factors that allow the bacteria to multiply in the host, but this is changing rapidly, and we are now beginning to understand that virulence and metabolism in the host are closely linked. The current review highlights which metabolic factors that are essential for Salmonella Typhimurium growth in the intestine, in cultured epithelial and macrophage-like cell lines, at systemic sites during invasive salmonellosis, and during long term asymptomatic colonization of the host. It also points to the limitations in our current knowledge, most notably that most studies have been carried out with few well-characterized laboratory strains, that we do not know how much the in vivo metabolism differs between serotypes, and that most results are based on challenges in the mouse model of infection. It will be very important to realize whether the current understanding of Salmonella metabolism in the host is true for all serotypes and all possible hosts.

Abstract
Transport of fluid and electrolytes in the intestine allows for appropriate adjustments in luminal fluidity while reclaiming water used in digesting and absorbing a meal, and is closely regulated. This article discusses various endogenous and exogenous mechanisms whereby transport is controlled in the gut, placing these in the context of the ideas about the neurohumoral control of alimentary physiology that were promulgated by William Bayliss and Ernest Starling. The article considers three themes. First, mechanisms that intrinsically regulate chloride secretion, centred on the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFr), are discussed. These may be important in ensuring that excessive chloride secretion, with the accompanying loss of fluid, is not normally stimulated by intestinal distension as the meal passes through the gastrointestinal tract. Second, mechanisms whereby probiotic microorganisms can impart beneficial effects on the gut are described, with a focus on targets at the level of the epithelium. These findings imply that the commensal microbiota exert important influences on the epithelium in health and disease. Finally, mechanisms that lead to diarrhoea in patients infected with an invasive pathogen, Salmonella, are considered, based on recent studies in a novel mouse model. Diarrhoea is most likely attributable to reduced expression of absorptive transporters and may not require the influx of neutrophils that accompanies infection. Overall, the goal of the article is to highlight the many ways in which critical functions of the intestinal epithelium are regulated under physiological and pathophysiological conditions, and to suggest possible targets for new therapies for digestive disease states.
