Abstract
Aims: Mitochondrial dynamics in alveolar macrophages (AMs) are associated with sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI). In this study, we aimed to investigate whether changes in mitochondrial dynamics could alter the polarization of AMs in sepsis-induced ALI and to explore the regulatory mechanism of mitochondrial dynamics by focusing on sirtuin (SIRT)3-induced optic atrophy protein 1 (OPA1) deacetylation. Results: The AMs of sepsis-induced ALI showed imbalanced mitochondrial dynamics and polarization to the M1 macrophage phenotype. In sepsis, SIRT3 overexpression promotes mitochondrial dynamic equilibrium in AMs. However, 3-(1H-1, 2, 3-triazol-4-yl) pyridine (3TYP)-specific inhibition of SIRT3 increased the mitochondrial dynamic imbalance and pro-inflammatory polarization of AMs and further aggravated sepsis-induced ALI. OPA1 is directly bound to and deacetylated by SIRT3 in AMs. In AMs of sepsis-induced ALI, SIRT3 protein expression was decreased and OPA1 acetylation was increased. OPA1 acetylation at the lysine 792 amino acid residue (OPA1-K792) promotes self-cleavage and is associated with an imbalance in mitochondrial dynamics. However, decreased acetylation of OPA1-K792 reversed the pro-inflammatory polarization of AMs and protected the barrier function of alveolar epithelial cells in sepsis-induced ALI. Innovation: Our study revealed, for the first time, the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics and AM polarization by SIRT3-mediated deacetylation of OPA1 in sepsis-induced ALI, which may serve as an intervention target for precision therapy of the disease. Conclusions: Our data suggest that imbalanced mitochondrial dynamics promote pro-inflammatory polarization of AMs in sepsis-induced ALI and that deacetylation of OPA1 mediated by SIRT3 improves mitochondrial dynamic equilibrium, thereby ameliorating lung injury.

Abstract
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that continuously undergo fusion/fission to maintain normal cell physiological activities and energy metabolism. When mitochondrial dynamics is unbalanced, mitochondrial homeostasis is broken, thus damaging mitochondrial function. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that impairment in mitochondrial dynamics leads to lung tissue injury and pulmonary disease progression in a variety of disease models, including inflammatory responses, apoptosis, and barrier breakdown, and that the role of mitochondrial dynamics varies among pulmonary diseases. These findings suggest that modulation of mitochondrial dynamics may be considered as a valid therapeutic strategy in pulmonary diseases. In this review, we discuss the current evidence on the role of mitochondrial dynamics in pulmonary diseases, with a particular focus on its underlying mechanisms in the development of acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis (PF), pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), lung cancer and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), and outline effective drugs targeting mitochondrial dynamics-related proteins, highlighting the great potential of targeting mitochondrial dynamics in the treatment of pulmonary disease.

Abstract
Mitochondria, the most crucial energy-generating organelles in eukaryotic cells, play a pivotal role in regulating energy metabolism. However, their significance extends beyond this, as they are also indispensable in vital life processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, immune responses, and redox balance. In response to various physiological signals or external stimuli, a sophisticated mitochondrial quality control (MQC) mechanism has evolved, encompassing key processes like mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dynamics, and mitophagy, which have garnered increasing attention from researchers to unveil their specific molecular mechanisms. In this review, we present a comprehensive summary of the primary mechanisms and functions of key regulators involved in major components of MQC. Furthermore, the critical physiological functions regulated by MQC and its diverse roles in the progression of various systemic diseases have been described in detail. We also discuss agonists or antagonists targeting MQC, aiming to explore potential therapeutic and research prospects by enhancing MQC to stabilize mitochondrial function.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of mitochondrial homeostasis on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endothelial cell barrier function and the mechanisms that underlie these effects. Cells were treated with LPS or oligomycin (mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate synthase inhibitor) and the mitochondrial morphology, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS), and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) were evaluated. Moreover, the shedding of glycocalyx-heparan sulphate (HS), the levels of HS-specific degrading enzyme heparanase (HPA), and the expression of occludin and zonula occludens (ZO-1) of Tight Junctions (TJ)s, which are mediated by myosin light chain phosphorylation (p-MLC), were assessed. Examining the changes in mitochondrial homeostasis showed that adding heparinase III, which is an exogenous HPA, can destroy the integrity of glycocalyx. LPS simultaneously increased mitochondrial swelling, mtROS, and ΔΨm. Without oligomycin effects, HS, HPA levels, and p-MLC were found to be elevated, and the destruction of occludin and ZO-1 increased. Heparinase III not only damaged the glycocalyx by increasing HS shedding but also increased mitochondrial swelling and mtROS and decreased ΔΨm. Mitochondrial homeostasis is involved in LPS-induced endothelial cell barrier dysfunction by aggravating HPA and p-MLC levels. In turn, the integrated glycocalyx protects mitochondrial homeostasis.

Abstract
SCOPE It is well-established that dysregulated mitochondrial homeostasis in macrophages leads to inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue damage, which are essential in the pathogenesis of sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI). Kahweol, a natural diterpene extracted from coffee beans, reportedly possesses anti-inflammatory and mitochondrial protective properties. Herein, the study investigates whether Kahweol can alleviate sepsis-induced ALI and explore the underlying mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS C57BL/6J mice are intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 12 h to induce ALI. Pretreatment with kahweol by gavage for 5 days significantly alleviates lung pathological injury, inflammation, and oxidative stress, accompanied by shifting the dynamic process of mitochondria from fission to fusion, enhancing mitophagy, and activating AMPK. To investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms, differentiated THP-1 cells are cultured in a medium containing Kahweol for 12 h prior to LPS exposure, yielding consistent findings with the in vivo results. Moreover, AMPK inhibitors abrogate the above effects, indicating Kahweol acts in an AMPK-dependent manner. Furthermore, the study explores how Kahweol activates AMPK and finds that this process is mediated by CamKK II. CONCLUSION Pretreatment with Kahweol attenuates sepsis-induced acute lung injury via improving mitochondrial homeostasis in a CaMKKII/AMPK-dependent pathway and may be a potential candidate to prevent sepsis-induced ALI.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by widespread pulmonary inflammation and immune response, in which proinflammatory polarization of alveolar macrophages (AMs) plays an important role. Mitochondria are the key intracellular signaling platforms regulating immune cell responses. Moreover, accumulating evidence suggests that the mitochondrial dynamics of macrophages are imbalanced in sepsis and severe ALI/ARDS. However, the functional significance of mitochondrial dynamics of AMs in septic ALI/ARDS remains largely unknown, and whether it regulates the polarized phenotype of AMs is also unclear. Here, we demonstrated that the mitochondrial dynamics of AMs are imbalanced, manifested by impaired mitochondrial fusion, increased fission and mitochondrial cristae remodeling, both in septic models and ARDS patients. However, suppressing excessive mitochondrial fission with Mdivi-1 or promoting mitochondrial fusion with PM1 to maintain mitochondrial dynamic equilibrium in AMs could inhibit the polarization of AMs into proinflammatory phenotype and attenuate sepsis-induced ALI. These data suggest that mitochondrial dynamic imbalance mediates altered polarization of AMs and exacerbates sepsis-induced ALI. This study provides new insights into the underlying mechanisms of sepsis-induced ALI, suggesting the possibility of identifying future drug targets from the perspective of mitochondrial dynamics in AMs.

Interleukin-17D produced by alveolar epithelial type II cells alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury via the Nrf2 pathway. Clin Sci (Lond) 2023; 137:1499-1512. [PMID: 37708335 DOI: 10.1042/cs20230354] [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: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis engenders an imbalance in the body's inflammatory response, with cytokines assuming a pivotal role in its progression. A relatively recent addition to the interleukin-17 family, denominated interleukin-17D (IL-17D), is notably abundant within pulmonary confines. Nevertheless, its implication in sepsis remains somewhat enigmatic. The present study endeavors to scrutinize the participation of IL-17D in sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI). METHODS The levels of IL-17D in the serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of both healthy cohorts and septic patients were ascertained through an ELISA protocol. For the creation of a sepsis-induced ALI model, intraperitoneal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injections were administered to male C57/BL6 mice. Subsequently, we examined the fluctuations and repercussions associated with IL-17D in sepsis-induced ALI, probing its interrelation with nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), alveolar epithelial permeability, and heme oxygenase-1. RESULTS IL-17D levels exhibited significant reduction both in the serum and BALF of septic patients (P<0.001). Similar observations manifested in mice subjected to LPS-induced acute lung injury (ALI) (P=0.002). Intraperitoneal administration of recombinant interleukin 17D protein (rIL-17D) prompted increased expression of claudin 18 and concomitant enhancement of alveolar epithelial permeability, thus, culminating in improved lung injury (P<0.001). Alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cells were identified as the source of IL-17D, regulated by Nrf2. Furthermore, a deficiency in HO-1 yielded elevated IL-17D levels (P=0.004), albeit administration of rIL-17D ameliorated the exacerbated pulmonary damage resulting from HO-1 deficiency. CONCLUSION Nrf2 fosters IL-17D production within AT II cells, thereby conferring a protective role in sepsis-induced ALI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a complicated and fatal condition with no specific or efficient clinical treatments. 5-Methoxytryptophan (5-MTP), an endogenous metabolite of tryptophan, was revealed to block systemic inflammation. However, the specific mechanism by which 5-MTP affects ALI still needs to be clarified. The purpose of this study was to determine whether 5-MTP protected the lung by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis through the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. METHODS AND RESULTS We used lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated C57BL/6 J mice and MH-S alveolar macrophages to create models of ALI, and 5-MTP (100 mg/kg) administration attenuated pathological lung damage in LPS-exposed mice, which was associated with decreased inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress levels, upregulated protein expression of Nrf2 and HO-1, and suppressed Caspase-1 activation and NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis protein levels. Moreover, Nrf2-deficient mice or MH-S cells were treated with 5-MTP to further confirm the protective effect of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway on lung damage. We found that Nrf2 deficiency partially eliminated the beneficial effect of 5-MTP on reducing oxidative stress levels and inflammatory responses and abrogating the inhibition of NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis induced by LPS. CONCLUSION These findings suggested that 5-MTP could effectively ameliorate ALI by inhibiting NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis via the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24087007. [PMID: 37108174 PMCID: PMC10138623 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24087007] [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: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/06/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The receptor of advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) are important receptors for inflammatory responses induced by high glucose (HG) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and show crosstalk phenomena in inflammatory responses. However, it is unknown whether RAGE and TLR4 can influence each other's expression through a crosstalk mechanism and whether the RAGE-TLR4 crosstalk related to the molecular mechanism of HG enhances the LPS-induced inflammatory response. In this study, the implications of LPS with multiple concentrations (0, 1, 5, and 10 μg/mL) at various treatment times (0, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h) in primary bovine alveolar macrophages (BAMs) were explored. The results showed that a 5 μg/mL LPS treatment at 12 h had the most significant increment on the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α levels in BAMs (p < 0.05) and that the levels of TLR4, RAGE, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein expression were upregulated (p < 0.05). Then, the effect of LPS (5 μg/mL) and HG (25.5 mM) co-treatment in BAMs was explored. The results further showed that HG significantly enhanced the release of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α caused by LPS in the supernatant (p < 0.01) and significantly increased the levels of RAGE, TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein expression (p < 0.01). Pretreatment with FPS-ZM1 and TAK-242, the inhibitors of RAGE and TLR4, significantly alleviated the HG + LPS-induced increment of RAGE, TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein expression in the presence of HG and LPS (p < 0.01). This study showed that RAGE and TLR4 affect each other's expression through crosstalk during the combined usage of HG and LPS and synergistically activate the MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway to promote the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in BAMs.

Protective Effect of Electroacupuncture on the Barrier Function of Intestinal Injury in Endotoxemia through HO-1/PINK1 Pathway-Mediated Mitochondrial Dynamics Regulation. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2023; 2023:1464853. [PMID: 36647427 PMCID: PMC9840552 DOI: 10.1155/2023/1464853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2021] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Background and Aims Endotoxemia (ET) is a common critical illness in patients receiving intensive care and is associated with high mortality and prolonged hospital stay. The intestinal epithelial cell dysfunction is regarded as the "engine" of deteriorated ET. Although electroacupuncture (EA) can mitigate endotoxin-induced intestinal epithelial cell dysfunction in ET, the mechanism through which EA improves endotoxin-induced intestinal injury for preventing ET deterioration needs further investigation. Methods An in vivo ET model was developed by injecting lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in wild-type and PINK1-knockout mice. An in vitro model was also established by incubating epithelial cells in the serum samples obtained from both groups of mice. Hemin and zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP) were applied to activate or inhibit heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) production. EA treatment was performed for 30 min consecutively for 5 days before LPS injection, and on the day of the experiment, EA was performed throughout the process. Samples were harvested at 6 h after LPS induction for analyzing tissue injury, oxidative stress, ATP production, activity of diamine oxidase (DAO), and changes in the levels of HO-1, PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1), mitochondrial fusion and fission marker gene, caspase-1, and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β). Results In the wild-type models (both in vivo and vitro), EA alleviated LPS-induced intestinal injury and mitochondrial dysfunction, as indicated by decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and reduced levels of mitochondrial fission proteins. EA treatment also boosted histopathological morphology, ATP levels, DAO activity, and levels of mitochondrial fusion proteins in vivo and vitro. The effect of EA was enhanced by hemin but suppressed by Znpp. However, EA + AP, Znpp, or hemin had no effects on the LPS-induced, PINK1-knocked out mouse models. Conclusion EA may improve the HO-1/PINK1 pathway-mediated mitochondrial dynamic balance to protect the intestinal barrier in patients with ET.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) remains a global public health issue without specific and effective treatment options available in the clinic. Alveolar macrophage polarization is involved in the initiation, development and progression of ALI; however, the underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) acts as an antioxidant in pulmonary inflammation and has been demonstrated to be linked with the severity and prognosis of ALI. In this study, the therapeutic effects of HO-1 were examined, along with the mechanisms involved, mainly focusing on alveolar macrophage polarization. HO-1 depletion induced higher iNOS and CD86 (M1 phenotype) expression but was significantly decreased in Arg-1 and CD206 (M2 phenotype) expression in BALF alveolar macrophages after equivalent LPS stimulation. We also found that HO-1 deletion distinctly accelerated the expression of inflammasome-associated components NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 in vivo and in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, on the basis of LPS for MH-S cells, levels of TXNIP, NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 were increased and HO-1 depletion exacerbated these changes, whereas double depletion of HO-1 and TXNIP partially mitigated these elevations. Also, HO-1 knockdown induced more M1 phenotype and less M2 phenotype compared with LPS alone, whereas double silence of HO-1 and TXNIP partially changed the polarization state. Taken together, we demonstrated that HO-1 could modulate macrophage polarization via TXNIP/NLRP3 signaling pathway, which could be a potential therapeutic target for ALI treatment.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) has been reported to exhibit a therapeutic effect in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI). However, the precise mechanism by which CO confers protection against ALI remains unclear. Pyroptosis has been recently proposed to play an essential role in the initiation and progression of ALI. Thus, we investigated whether pyroptosis is involved in the protection of CO against ALI and its underlying mechanism. First, an LPS-induced ALI mouse model was established. To determine the role of pyroptosis, we evaluated histological changes and the expression levels of cleaved caspase-11, N-gasdermin D (GSDMD), and IL-1β in lung tissues, which are the indicators of pyroptosis. Inhalation of CO exhibited protective effects on LPS-induced ALI by decreasing TNF-α and IL-10 expression and ameliorating pathological changes in lung tissue. In vitro, CO significantly reduced the expression of cleaved caspase-11, N-GSDMD, IL-1β, and IL-18. In addition, it increased nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (NRF-2) expression in a time-dependent manner in RAW 264.7 cells and decreased N-GSDMD expression. The expression of cleaved GSDMD and release of LDH were increased after treatment with a specific NRF-2 inhibitor, ML385, indicating that NRF-2 mediates the inhibition of pyroptosis by CO. Taken together, these results demonstrated that CO upregulated NRF-2 to inhibit pyroptosis and subsequently ameliorated LPS-induced ALI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome associated with mitochondria and lacks effective preventive and therapeutic measures. This bibliometric study aims to gain insight into the scientific findings regarding mitochondria in ALI/ARDS. METHODS We retrieved the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) of the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) for mitochondria in ALI/ARDS publications from 2012-2021. VOSviewer, CiteSpace (5.8. R3) and Bibliometrix (3.1.4) R package were used for further analysis and visualization. RESULT A total of 756 English-language articles and reviews were identified. The annual number of publications presented a rapidly developing trend. China was the most productive and cited country, and the USA had the greatest impact. In the keyword co-occurring network, the terms "acute lung injury", "oxidative stress", "inflammation", "mitochondria" and "apoptosis" occurred most frequently. The co-citation network revealed that #1 mesenchymal stromal cell and #3 endothelial cell had the most bursts of citations. In addition, research hotspots have shifted from "potential therapeutic treatments" and "mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)" to "endothelial cell" and "mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)". CONCLUSION This bibliometric analysis reveals the research directions and frontier hotspots of mitochondria in ALI/ARDS, which has shown a rapid growth trend in annual publication numbers. mtDNA, mitophagy, and apoptosis have been the most active research areas, while studies on mitochondrial transfer in stem cells have become a hot topic in recent years.

Abstract
Endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a challenging life-threatening disease for which no specific therapy exists. Mitochondrial dysfunction is corroborated as hallmarks in sepsis which commonly disrupt mitochondria-centered cellular communication networks, especially mitonuclear crosstalk, where the ubiquitous cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is essential for mitonuclear communication. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is critical for maintaining mitochondrial dynamic equilibrium and regulating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi stress to alleviating acute lung injury. However, it is unclear whether HO-1 regulates NAD+-mediated mitonuclear communication to exert the endogenous protection during endotoxin-induced ALI. In this study, we observed HO-1 attenuated endotoxin-induced ALI by regulated NAD+ levels and NAD+ affected the mitonuclear communication, including mitonuclear protein imbalance and UPRmt to alleviate lung damage. We also found the protective effect of HO-1 depended on NAD+ and NAD+-mediated mitonuclear communication. Furtherly, the inhibition of the PGC1α/PPARγ signaling exacerbates the septic lung injury by reducing NAD+ levels and repressing the mitonuclear protein imbalance and UPRmt. Altogether, our study certified that HO-1 ameliorated endotoxin-induced acute lung injury by regulating NAD+ and NAD+-mediated mitonuclear communications through PGC1α/PPARγ pathway. The present study provided complementary evidence for the cytoprotective effect of HO-1 as a potential target for preventing and attenuating of endotoxin-induced ALI.

Abstract
Mitochondria need to interact with the nucleus under homeostasis and stress to maintain cellular demands and nuclear transcriptional programs. Disrupted mitonuclear interaction is involved in many disease processes. However, the role of mitonuclear signaling regulators in endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI) remains unknown. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is closely related to mitonuclear interaction with its central role in mitochondrial metabolism. In the current study, C57BL/6J mice were administrated with lipopolysaccharide 15 mg/kg to induce endotoxin-induced ALI and investigated whether the NAD+ precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) could preserve mitonuclear interaction and alleviate ALI. After pretreatment with NMN for 7 days, NAD+ levels in the mitochondrial, nucleus, and total intracellular were significantly increased in endotoxemia mice. Moreover, supplementation of NMN alleviated lung pathologic injury, reduced ROS levels, increased MnSOD activities, mitigated mitochondrial dysfunction, ameliorated the defects in the nucleus morphology, and these cytoprotective effects were accompanied by preserving mitonuclear interaction (including mitonuclear protein imbalance and the mitochondrial unfolded protein response, UPRmt). Furthermore, NAD+-mediated mitonuclear protein imbalance and UPRmt are probably regulated by deacetylase Sirtuin1 (SIRT1). Taken together, our results indicated that NMN pretreatment ameliorated ALI by inducing mitonuclear protein imbalance and activating the UPRmt in an SIRT1-dependent manner.

Abstract
Necroptosis, a recently described form of programmed cell death, is the main way of alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) death in acute lung injury (ALI). While the mechanism of how to trigger necroptosis in AECs during ALI has been rarely evaluated. Long optic atrophy protein 1 (L-OPA1) is a crucial mitochondrial inner membrane fusion protein, and its deficiency impairs mitochondrial function. This study aimed to investigate the role of L-OPA1 deficiency-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction in AECs necroptosis. We comprehensively investigated the detailed contribution and molecular mechanism of L-OPA1 deficiency in AECs necroptosis by inhibiting or activating L-OPA1. Firstly, our data showed that L-OPA1 expression was down-regulated in the lungs and AECs under the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge. Furthermore, inhibition of L-OPA1 aggravated the pathological injury, inflammatory response, and necroptosis in the lungs of LPS-induced ALI mice. In vitro, inhibition of L-OPA1 induced necroptosis of AECs, while activation of L-OPA1 alleviated necroptosis of AECs under the LPS challenge. Mechanistically, inhibition of L-OPA1 aggravated necroptosis of AECs by inducing mitochondrial fragmentation and reducing mitochondrial membrane potential. While activation of L-OPA1 had the opposite effects. In summary, these findings indicate for the first time that L-OPA1 deficiency mediates mitochondrial fragmentation, induces necroptosis of AECs, and exacerbates ALI in mice.

The Activation of AMPK/NRF2 Pathway in Lung Epithelial Cells Is Involved in the Protective Effects of Kinsenoside on Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury.

Abstract
The disorder of mitochondrial dynamic equilibrium of lung epithelial cell is one of the critical causes of acute lung injury (ALI). Kinsenoside (Kin) serves as an active small-molecule component derived from traditional medicinal herb displaying multiple pharmacological actions in cancers, hyperglycemia, and liver disease. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of Kin on lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced ALI and further explore possible molecular mechanisms. Kin was administered orally (100 mg/kg/day) for 7 consecutive days before LPS instillation (5 mg/kg). After 12 hours, pathological injury, inflammatory response, and oxidative stress were detected. The results demonstrated that Kin significantly alleviated lung pathological injury and decreased the infiltration of inflammatory cells and the release of inflammatory mediators in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), apart from inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation. Meanwhile, Kin also promoted mitochondrial fusion and restrained mitochondrial fission in mice with ALI. In terms of mechanism, Kin pretreatment increased the phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and the protein level of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2). In Ampk-α knockout mice challenged with LPS, Kin lost its pulmonary protective effects, accompanied by lower NRF2 level. In vitro experiments further unveiled that either AMPK inhibition by Compound C or NRF2 knockdown by siRNA abolished the protective roles of Kin in LPS-treated A549 lung epithelial cells. And NRF2 activator TAT-14 could reverse the effects of Ampk-α deficiency. In conclusion, Kin possesses the ability to prevent LPS-induced ALI by modulating mitochondrial dynamic equilibrium in lung epithelial cell in an AMPK/NRF2-dependent manner.

Rats subjected to LPS-induced acute lung injury (2.8 ± 0.33, P < 0.05) presented with a significantly higher wet to dry lung weight ration ratio than sham rats (1.6 ± 0.23, P < 0.05). These results demonstrate that acutely inured rats' lungs were oedematous. On the other hand, treatment with scutellarin alone and in combination with a JNK inhibitor, SP600125, both significantly attenuated pulmonary edema as shown via reduced wet/dry lung mass ratios (1.7 ± 0.09 and 1.8 ± 0.23; P < 0.05, respectively). These results showed that the interventions were effective against LPS-induced edema of the lungs. However, the difference between treatment groups' weight ratios was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). In the sham control rats, the levels of ROS and SOD production were maintained at a low and at a high concentration, respectively (P < 0.05). However, following LPS infusion, the ROS levels skyrocketed while that of SOD decreased significantly relative to the control rats (P < 0.05). Furthermore, we noted that pre-treatment with scutellarin reduced the ROS levels in LPS-injured rats while the SOD was increased to near control levels (P < 0.05). Moreover, the combined effect of scutellarin and JNK inhibitor SP600125 on the levels of ROS and the SOD activity followed a similar trend to that of scutellarin alone albeit with a lower magnitude of change. Our results also showed that the combinatorial treatment was not significantly different from scutellarin alone in terms of influence on the levels of ROS production and SOD activity (P > 0.05). The effect of Scutellarin on broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cytokine secretion The expression of interleukins-1β, −18 and −6 in the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid were significantly upregulated by LPS infusion (P < 0.05). The rise was, however, attenuated via pre-treatment with scutellarin only or in conjunction with SP600125, a JNK inhibitor (all P < 0.05). On the contrary, we observed that LPS injection caused a reduction of interlekins −4 and −10 secreted in the BALF. Pre-treatment with scutellarin alone (P < 0.05) and not in combination with SP600125 or SP600125 was able to significantly reverse this noted down-regulation (all P > 0.05).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI) has a high mortality rate, and there are limited effective treatment options available. The aim of the present study was to identify if dexmedetomidine could regulate mitochondrial fusion and fission through the protein kinase C (PKC)-α/heme oxygenase (HO)-1 pathway to protect against endotoxin-induced ALI. MATERIALS AND METHODS Dexmedetomidine was administered by intraperitoneal injection once daily for 3 days prior to induction of lung injury to mice. Mice in the PKC-α inhibitor group received dexmedetomidine by intraperitoneal injection 1 h after each chelerythrine injection, and lipopolysaccharide was injected 1 h after the last dose of dexmedetomidine. The lung wet/dry weight ratio, oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and expression levels of PKC-α, Nrf2, HO-1, Mfn1, Mfn2, OPA1, Drp1, and Fis1 were determined. RESULTS Dexmedetomidine administration attenuated lung oxidative stress, decreased inflammatory cytokines secretion, and downregulated the expression levels of Drp1 and Fis1. Moreover, dexmedetomidine increased levels of Mfn1, Mfn2, and OPA1, and alleviated endotoxin-induced lung injury. Administration of chelerythrine partially reversed the pneumoprotective effects of dexmedetomidine. CONCLUSIONS Dexmedetomidine may activate the PKC-ɑ/HO-1 pathway to increase the expression of Mfn1, Mfn2, and OPA1, while decreasing Drp1 and Fis1 expression, thereby reduce endotoxin-induced acute lung injury.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) and its serious form, the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are devastating diseases without effective chemotherapy. Exuberant or uncontrolled proinflammation responses in the lung, also known as "cytokine storms", is one of the main culprits in the pathogenesis of organ failure, and anti-inflammatory therapy is essential to alleviate ALI/ARDS-associated injuries. Emerging evidence suggests that baicalein has potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. However, the underlined mechanism of baicalein to mitigate inflammation in ALI remains unclear. Herein, we demonstrated a critical role for baicalein in suppressing the inflammatory response of LPS-activated macrophages. We found that mitochondria function was restored in the condition of baicalein. Interestingly, results showed that mitochondrial dysfunction positively correlates with inflammatory cytokine generation at each corresponding baicalein concentration. Further mRNA analysis revealed that baicalein mitigates mitochondrial defects via attenuation of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) expression. These reprogrammed mitochondria prevent their function shift from the ATP synthesis to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production after the LPS challenge, thereby dampening NF-κB-dependent inflammatory cytokine transcription. Baicalein reduces the production of inflammatory mediators TNF-α, MIP-1, IL-6, and diminishes neutrophil influx and severity of endotoxin-mediated ALI. Taken together, our results show that baicalein may serve as a new clinical therapeutic strategy in ALI by modulating Drp1-induced mitochondrial impairment, restraining inflammatory responses, and reducing the severity of lung injury.

Abstract
Mitochondria are biosynthetic, bioenergetic, and signaling organelles which are critical for physiological adaptations and cellular stress responses to the environment. Various endogenous and environmental stress affects critical processes in mitochondrial homeostasis such as oxidative phosphorylation, biogenesis, mitochondrial redox system which leads to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals. The state of function of the mitochondrion is particularly dependent on the dynamic balance between mitochondrial biogenesis, fusion and fission, and degradation of damaged mitochondria by mitophagy. Increasing evidence has suggested a prominent role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the onset and progression of various lung pathologies, ranging from acute to chronic disorders. In this comprehensive review, we discuss the emerging findings of multifaceted regulations of mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy in normal lung homeostasis as well as the prominence of mitochondrial dysfunction as a determining factor in different lung disorders such as lung cancer, COPD, IPF, ALI/ARDS, BPD, and asthma. The review will contribute to the existing understanding of critical molecular machinery regulating mitochondrial dynamic state during these pathological states. Furthermore, we have also highlighted various molecular checkpoints involved in mitochondrial dynamics, which may serve as hopeful therapeutic targets for the development of potential therapies for these lung disorders.

Abstract
Volume resuscitation is an important early treatment for haemorrhagic shock. Haemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (HBOC) can expand the volume and provide oxygen for tissues. Vascular leakage is common complication in the process of haemorrhagic shock and resuscitation. The aim of this study was to observe the effects of HBOC (a bovine-derived, cross-linked tetramer haemoglobin oxygen-carrying solution, 0.5 g/L) on vascular leakage in rats after haemorrhagic shock. A haemorrhagic shock rat model and hypoxic vascular endothelial cells (VECs) were used. The role of intercellular junctions and endothelial glycocalyx in the protective effects of HBOC and the relationship with mitochondrial function were analysed. After haemorrhagic shock, the pulmonary vascular permeability to FITC-BSA, Evans Blue was increased, endothelial glycocalyx was destroyed and the expression of intercellular junction proteins was decreased. After haemorrhagic shock, a small volume of HBOC solution (6 ml/kg) protected pulmonary vascular permeability, increased structural thickness of endothelial glycocalyx, the levels of its components and increased expression levels of the intercellular junction proteins ZO-1, VE-cadherin and occludin. Moreover, HBOC significantly increased oxygen delivery and consumption in rats, improved VEC mitochondrial function and structure. In conclusion, HBOC mitigates endothelial leakage by protecting endothelial glycocalyx and intercellular junctions through improving mitochondrial function and tissue oxygen delivery.

Abstract
Sepsis is a lethal syndrome with multiple organ failure caused by an inappropriate host response to infection. Cardiac dysfunction is one of the important complications of sepsis, termed sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction (SIMD), which is characterized by systolic and diastolic dysfunction of both sides of the heart. Mechanisms that contribute to SIMD include an excessive inflammatory response, altered circulatory, microvascular status, nitric oxide (NO) synthesis impairment, endothelial dysfunction, disorders of calcium regulation, cardiac autophagy anomaly, autonomic nervous system dysregulation, metabolic reprogramming, and mitochondrial dysfunction. The role of mitochondrial dysfunction, which is characterized by structural abnormalities, increased oxidative stress, abnormal opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), mitochondrial uncoupling, and disordered quality control systems, has been gaining increasing attention as a central player in the pathophysiology of SIMD. The disruption of homeostasis within the organism induced by mitochondrial dysfunction may also be an important aspect of SIMD development. In addition, an emerging therapy strategy targeting mitochondria, namely, metabolic resuscitation, seems promising. The current review briefly introduces the mechanism of SIMD, highlights how mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to SIMD, and discusses the role of metabolic resuscitation in the treatment of SIMD.

Abstract
Increasing lines of evidence identified that dexmedetomidine (DEX) exerted protective effects against sepsis-stimulated acute lung injury via anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation and anti-apoptosis. However, the mechanisms remain unclear. Herein, we investigated whether DEX afforded lung protection by regulating the process of mitochondrial dynamics through the HIF-1a/HO-1 pathway in vivo and in vitro. Using C57BL/6J mice exposed to lipopolysaccharide, it was initially observed that preemptive administration of DEX (50μg/kg) alleviated lung pathologic injury, reduced oxidative stress indices (OSI), improved mitochondrial dysfunction, upregulated the expression of HIF-1α and HO-1, accompanied by shifting the dynamic course of mitochondria into fusion. Moreover, HO-1-knockout mice or HO-1 siRNA transfected NR8383 cells were pretreated with HIF-1α stabilizer DMOG and DEX to validate the effect of HIF-1a/HO-1 pathway on DEX-mediated mitochondrial dynamics in a model of endotoxin-induced lung injury. We found that pretreatment with DEX and DMOG distinctly relieved lung injury, decreased the levels of mitochondrial ROS and mtDNA, reduced OSI, increased nuclear accumulation of HIF-1a and HO-1 protein in wild type mice but not HO-1 KO mice. Similar observations were recapitulated in NC siRNA transfected NR8383 cells after LPS stimulation but not HO-1 siRNA transfected cells. Concertedly, DEX reversed the impaired mitochondrial morphology in LPS stimulated-wild type mice or NC siRNA transfected NR8383 cells, upregulated the expression of mitochondrial fusion protein, while downregulated the expression of fission protein in HIF-1a/HO-1 dependent pathway. Altogether, our data both in vivo and in vitro certified that DEX treatment ameliorated endotoxin-induced acute lung injury by preserving the dynamic equilibrium of mitochondrial fusion/fission through the regulation of HIF-1a/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
AIMS Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is one of the most common complications of sepsis, and it might lead to long-term cognitive dysfunction and disability. This study aimed to explore the role of S100 calcium binding protein B (S100B)/RAGE/ceramide signaling pathway in SAE. MAIN METHODS FPS-ZM1 (an inhibitor of RAGE), myriocin and GW4869 (an inhibitor of ceramide) were used to explore the role of S100B/RAGE/ceramide in acute brain injury and long-term cognitive impairment in sepsis. In addition, Mdivi-1 (inhibitor of Drp1) and Drp1 siRNA were utilized to assess the effects of C2-ceramide on neuronal mitochondria, and to explore the specific underlying mechanism in C2 ceramide-induced death of HT22 mouse hippocampal neuronal cells. KEY FINDINGS Western blot analysis showed that sepsis significantly up-regulated S100B and RAGE. Nissl staining and Morris water maze (MWM) test revealed that inhibition of RAGE with FPS-ZM1 markedly attenuated cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced brain damage and cognitive dysfunction. Furthermore, FPS-ZM1 relieved sepsis-induced C2-ceramide accumulation and abnormal mitochondrial dynamics. Moreover, inhibition of ceramide also showed similar protective effects both in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, Mdivi-1 and Drp1 siRNA significantly reduced C2-ceramide-induced neuronal mitochondrial fragmentation and cell apoptosis in vitro. SIGNIFICANCE This study confirmed that S100B regulates mitochondrial dynamics through RAGE/ceramide pathway, in addition to the role of this pathway in acute brain injury and long-term cognitive impairment during sepsis.

Hydromorphone Protects against CO 2 Pneumoperitoneum-Induced Lung Injury via Heme Oxygenase-1-Regulated Mitochondrial Dynamics. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:9034376. [PMID: 33927798 PMCID: PMC8053056 DOI: 10.1155/2021/9034376] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2020] [Revised: 03/04/2021] [Accepted: 03/19/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
Various pharmacological agents and protective methods have been shown to reverse pneumoperitoneum-related lung injury, but identifying the best strategy is challenging. Herein, we employed lung tissues and blood samples from C57BL/6 mice with pneumoperitoneum-induced lung injury and blood samples from patients who received laparoscopic gynecological surgery to investigate the therapeutic role of hydromorphone in pneumoperitoneum-induced lung injury along with the underlying mechanism. We found that pretreatment with hydromorphone alleviated lung injury in mice that underwent CO2 insufflation, decreased the levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO), total oxidant status (TOS), and oxidative stress index (OSI), and increased total antioxidant status (TAS). In addition, after pretreatment with hydromorphone, upregulated HO-1 protein expression, reduced mitochondrial DNA content, and improved mitochondrial morphology and dynamics were observed in mice subjected to pneumoperitoneum. Immunohistochemical staining also verified that hydromorphone could increase the expression of HO-1 in lung tissues in mice subjected to CO2 pneumoperitoneum. Notably, in mice treated with HO-1-siRNA, the protective effects of hydromorphone against pneumoperitoneum-induced lung injury were abolished, and hydromorphone did not have additional protective effects on mitochondria. Additionally, in clinical patients who received laparoscopic gynecological surgery, pretreatment with hydromorphone resulted in lower serum levels of club cell secretory protein-16 (CC-16) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), a lower prooxidant-antioxidant balance (PAB), and higher heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) activity than morphine pretreatment. Collectively, our results suggest that hydromorphone protects against CO2 pneumoperitoneum-induced lung injury via HO-1-regulated mitochondrial dynamics and may be a promising strategy to treat CO2 pneumoperitoneum-induced lung injury.

Abstract
Background The recombinant protein diannexin can inhibit platelet-mediated events, which contribute to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Here, we investigated the effect of diannexin and its effect on heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in ARDS. Methods A total of 32 rats were randomized into sham, ARDS, diannexin (D), and diannexin+HO-1 inhibitor (DH) groups. Alveolar-capillary permeability was evaluated by testing the partial pressure of oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) ratio, lung wet/dry weight ratio, and protein levels in the lung. Inflammation was assessed by measuring cytokine levels in the bronchial alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and serum and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in the lung tissue. Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), malondialdehyde (MDA), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) were measured to evaluate the oxidative stress response. Lung tissue pathology and apoptosis were also evaluated. We measured HO-1 expression in the lung tissue to investigate the effect of diannexin on HO-1 in ARDS. Results Compared with the ARDS group, diannexin improved PaO2/FiO2, lung wet/dry weight ratio, and protein levels in the BALF and decreased levels of cytokines and NF-κB in the lung and serum. Diannexin inhibited the oxidative stress response and significantly ameliorated pathological lung injury and apoptosis. The partial reversal of diannexin effects by a HO-1 inhibitor suggests that diannexin may promote HO-1 expression to ameliorate ARDS. Conclusions We showed that diannexin can improve alveolar-capillary permeability, inhibit the oxidative stress response and inflammation, and protect against ARDS-induced lung injury and apoptosis.

Abstract
Sepsis caused acute lung injury (ALI) is a kind of serious disease in critically ill patients with very high morbidity and mortality. Recently, it has been demonstrated that Golgi is involved in the process of oxidative stress. However, whether Golgi stress is associated with oxidative stress in septic induced acute lung injury has not been elucidated. In this research, we found that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced oxidative stress, apoptosis, inflammation and Golgi morphology changes in acute lung injury both in vivo and in vitro. The knockout of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) aggravated oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis and reduced the expression of Golgi matrix protein 130 (GM130), mannosidase Ⅱ, Golgi-associated protein golgin A1 (Golgin 97), and increased the expression of Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3), which caused the fragmentation of Golgi. Furtherly, the activation of hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)/HO-1 pathway, attenuates Golgi stress and oxidative stress by increasing the levels of GM130, mannosidase Ⅱ, Golgin 97, and decreasing the expression of GOLPH3 both in vivo and in vitro. Therefore, the activation of HO-1 plays a crucial role in alleviating sepsis-induced acute lung injury by regulating Golgi stress, oxidative stress, which may provide a therapeutic target for the treatment of acute lung injury.

[PMID: 33636237 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbr.2021.113200] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2020] [Revised: 02/14/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2021] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an increasingly common emergency disease that usually leads to prolonged physical and cognitive impairments. In this study, we investigated if sevoflurane could induce cognitive improvement in TBI rats. Rats were subjected to head trauma induced by a fluid percussion device. A two-hour exposure to 3% sevoflurane was performed in a chamber immediately after TBI. Sevoflurane inhalation reduced the neurological and cognitive deficits induced by TBI with ameliorated synaptic injuries in the hippocampus. Moreover, after sevoflurane treatment, the expression of nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor-2 (Nrf-2) and hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) in the hippocampus was enhanced 1 d after TBI and maintained at high levels 14 days later, and oxidative stress induced by TBI was inhibited. However, the HO-1 inhibitor, Zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP), used to demonstrate the involvement of HO-1, suppressed the protective effect of sevoflurane. These results indicate that sevoflurane administered immediately after TBI may protect against TBI-induced synaptic and cognitive impairments by promoting the antioxidant Nrf-2/HO-1 pathway. Sevoflurane may be a promising anesthetic for patients with TBI.

Abstract
Mitochondria maintain mitochondrial homeostasis through continuous fusion and fission, that is, mitochondrial dynamics, which is precisely mediated by mitochondrial fission and fusion proteins, including dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), mitofusin 1 and 2 (Mfn1/2), and optic atrophy 1 (OPA1). When the mitochondrial fission and fusion of cardiomyocytes are out of balance, they will cause their own morphology and function disorders, which damage the structure and function of the heart, are involved in the occurrence and progression of cardiovascular disease such as ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), septic cardiomyopathy, and diabetic cardiomyopathy. In this paper, we focus on the latest findings regarding the molecular features and regulatory mechanisms of mitochondrial dynamic disorder in cardiovascular pathologies. Finally, we will address how these findings can be applied to improve the treatment of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Hypoxia and inflammation often coincide in pathogenic conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and chronic lung diseases, which are significant contributors to morbidity and mortality for the general population. For example, the recent global outbreak of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has placed viral infection-induced ARDS under the spotlight. Moreover, chronic lung disease ranks the third leading cause of death in the United States. Hypoxia signaling plays a diverse role in both acute and chronic lung inflammation, which could partially be explained by the divergent function of downstream target pathways such as adenosine signaling. Particularly, hypoxia signaling activates adenosine signaling to inhibit the inflammatory response in ARDS, while in chronic lung diseases, it promotes inflammation and tissue injury. In this review, we discuss the role of adenosine at the interphase of hypoxia and inflammation in ARDS and chronic lung diseases, as well as the current strategy for therapeutic targeting of the adenosine signaling pathway.

Therapeutic Potential of Heme Oxygenase-1 and Carbon Monoxide in Acute Organ Injury, Critical Illness, and Inflammatory Disorders. Antioxidants (Basel) 2020; 9:antiox9111153. [PMID: 33228260 PMCID: PMC7699570 DOI: 10.3390/antiox9111153] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2020] [Revised: 10/29/2020] [Accepted: 11/02/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an inducible stress protein that catalyzes the oxidative conversion of heme to carbon monoxide (CO), iron, and biliverdin (BV), the latter of which is converted to bilirubin (BR) by biliverdin reductase. HO-1 has been implicated as a cytoprotectant in various models of acute organ injury and disease (i.e., lung, kidney, heart, liver). Thus, HO-1 may serve as a general therapeutic target in inflammatory diseases. HO-1 may function as a pleiotropic modulator of inflammatory signaling, via the removal of heme, and generation of its enzymatic degradation-products. Iron release from HO activity may exert pro-inflammatory effects unless sequestered, whereas BV/BR have well-established antioxidant properties. CO, derived from HO activity, has been identified as an endogenous mediator that can influence mitochondrial function and/or cellular signal transduction programs which culminate in the regulation of apoptosis, cellular proliferation, and inflammation. Much research has focused on the application of low concentration CO, whether administered in gaseous form by inhalation, or via the use of CO-releasing molecules (CORMs), for therapeutic benefit in disease. The development of novel CORMs for their translational potential remains an active area of investigation. Evidence has accumulated for therapeutic effects of both CO and CORMs in diseases associated with critical care, including acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS), mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury, pneumonias, and sepsis. The therapeutic benefits of CO may extend to other diseases involving aberrant inflammatory processes such as transplant-associated ischemia/reperfusion injury and chronic graft rejection, and metabolic diseases. Current and planned clinical trials explore the therapeutic benefit of CO in ARDS and other lung diseases.

HO-1/PINK1 Regulated Mitochondrial Fusion/Fission to Inhibit Pyroptosis and Attenuate Septic Acute Kidney Injury. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:2148706.

Abstract
Background Endotoxin-associated acute kidney injury (AKI), a disease characterized by marked oxidative stress and inflammation disease, is a major cause of mortality in critically ill patients. Mitochondrial fission and pyroptosis often occur in AKI. However, the underlying biological pathways involved in endotoxin AKI remain poorly understood, especially those related to mitochondrial dynamics equilibrium disregulation and pyroptosis. Previous studies suggest that heme oxygenase- (HO-) 1 confers cytoprotection against AKI during endotoxic shock, and PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) takes part in mitochondrial dysfunction. Thus, in this study, we examine the roles of HO-1/PINK1 in maintaining the dynamic process of mitochondrial fusion/fission to inhibit pyroptosis and mitigate acute kidney injury in rats exposed to endotoxin. Methods An endotoxin-associated AKI model induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used in our study. Wild-type (WT) rats and PINK1 knockout (PINK1KO) rats, respectively, were divided into four groups: the control, LPS, Znpp+LPS, and Hemin+LPS groups. Rats were sacrificed 6 h after intraperitoneal injecting LPS to assess renal function, oxidative stress, and inflammation by plasma. Mitochondrial dynamics, morphology, and pyroptosis were evaluated by histological examinations. Results In the rats with LPS-induced endotoxemia, the expression of HO-1 and PINK1 were upregulated at both mRNA and protein levels. These rats also exhibited inflammatory response, oxidative stress, mitochondrial fission, pyroptosis, and decreased renal function. After upregulating HO-1 in normal rats, pyroptosis was inhibited; mitochondrial fission and inflammatory response to oxidative stress were decreased; and the renal function was improved. The effects were reversed by adding Znpp (a type of HO-1 inhibitor). Finally, after PINK1 knockout, there is no statistical difference in the LPS-treated group and Hemin or Znpp pretreated group. Conclusions HO-1 inhibits inflammation response and oxidative stress and regulates mitochondria fusion/fission to inhibit pyroptosis, which can alleviate endotoxin-induced AKI by PINK1.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies revealed a sharp increase in respiratory diseases attributed to PM2.5. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Evidence suggested mitochondrion as a sensitive target upon the stimulus of PM2.5, and the centrality in the pathological processes and clinical characterization of lung diseases. To investigate cell fate and related mechanisms caused by PM2.5, we exposed human lung epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) to PM2.5 (0-100 μg/mL). Consequently, PM2.5 components were found in cytoplasm, and morphological and functional alterations in mitochondria occurred, as evidenced by loss of cristae, vacuolization and even the outer mitochondrial membrane rupture, mitochondrial membrane potential collapse, enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS)/mtROS level, calcium overload, suppressed cellular respiration and ATP production in PM2.5-treated cells. Further, disturbed dynamics toward fission was clearly observed in PM2.5-treated mitochondria, associated with DRP1 mitochondrial translocation and phosphorylation. Besides, PM2.5 induced mitochondria-mediated apoptosis. More importantly, mechanistic results revealed ROS- and DRP1-mediated mitochondrial fission in a reciprocal way, and DRP1 inhibitor (Mdivi-1) significantly alleviated the pro-apoptotic effect of PM2.5 through reversing the activated mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. In summary, our results firstly revealed PM2.5 induced apoptosis in lung epithelial cells through a ROS-DRP1-mitochodrial fission axis-mediated mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, ultimately contributing to the onset and development of pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
Objectives In diabetic nephropathy (DN), hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α) activation in tubular cells plays an important protective role against kidney injury. The effects may occur via the target genes of HIF‐1α, such as haem oxygenase‐1 (HO‐1), but the exact mechanisms are incompletely understood. Materials and methods Mice with proximal tubule‐specific knockout of HIF‐1α (PT‐HIF‐1α−/− mice) were generated, and diabetes was induced in these mice by streptozotocin (STZ) injection. In addition, to mimic a hypoxic state, cobaltous chloride (CoCl2) was applied to HK‐2 cells. Results Our study first verified that conditional knockout of HIF‐1α worsened tubular injury in DN; additionally, aggravated kidney dysfunction, renal histopathological alterations, mitochondrial fragmentation, ROS accumulation and apoptosis were observed in diabetic PT‐HIF‐1α−/− mice. In vitro study showed that compared to control group, HK‐2 cells cultured under hypoxic ambiance displayed increased mitochondrial fragmentation, ROS production, mitochondrial membrane potential loss and apoptosis. These increases were reversed by overexpression of HIF‐1α or treatment with a HO‐1 agonist. Importantly, cotreatment with a HIF‐1α inhibitor and a HO‐1 agonist rescued the HK‐2 cells from the negative impacts of the HIF‐1α inhibitor. Conclusions These data revealed that HIF‐1α exerted a protective effect against tubular injury in DN, which could be mediated via modulation of mitochondrial dynamics through HO‐1 upregulation.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an endogenously synthesized gaseous mediator and is involved in the regulation of numerous physiological processes. Mitochondria, in which hemoproteins are abundant, are among the targets for CO action. Large-conductance calcium-activated (mitoBKCa) channels in the inner mitochondrial membrane share multiple biophysical similarities with the BKCa channels of the plasma membrane and could be a potential target for CO. To test this hypothesis, the activity of the mitoBKCa channels in human astrocytoma U-87 MG cell mitochondria was assessed with the patch-clamp technique. The effects of CO-releasing molecules (CORMs), such as CORM-2, CORM-401, and CORM-A1, were compared to the application of a CO-saturated solution to the mitoBKCa channels in membrane patches. The applied CORMs showed pleiotropic effects including channel inhibition, while the CO-containing solution did not significantly modulate channel activity. Interestingly, CO applied to the mitoBKCa channels, which were inhibited by exogenously added heme, stimulated the channel. To summarize, our findings indicate a requirement of heme binding to the mitoBKCa channel for channel modulation by CO and suggest that CORMs might have complex unspecific effects on mitoBKCa channels.

The present study demonstrated that abnormal mitochondrial dynamics play a pivotal role in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI. Inhibiting the mitochondrial fission with the specific inhibitor-1 (Mdivi-1) ameliorated ALI as assessed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and wet/dry ratio. Furthermore, Mdivi-1 reduced mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) activation, oxidative stress and apoptosis in the lungs. Plasma pro-inflammation cytokines were also reduced significantly in Mdivi-1-treated mice. In vitro study revealed that Mdivi-1 protected the macrophages from LPS-induced MAPKs activation, oxidative stress and cell apoptosis. Mdivi-1 also inhibited the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Morphological analysis showed that Mdivi-1 rescued the macrophages from LPS-induced mitochondrial fragmentation. Moreover, LPS treatment induced significant phosphorylation of Drp1 at Ser616, dephosphorylation at Ser637 and translocation of Drp1 from the cytoplasm to mitochondria, while Mdivi-1 inhibited those effects. Thus, modification of fission to rebuild mitochondrial homeostasis may offer an innovative opportunity for developing therapeutic strategies against ALI.

Neuronal Mitochondria Modulation of LPS-Induced Neuroinflammation. J Neurosci 2020; 40:1756-1765.

Abstract
Neuronal mitochondria dysfunction and neuroinflammation are two prominent pathological features increasingly realized as important pathogenic mechanisms for neurodegenerative diseases. However, little attempt has been taken to investigate the likely interactions between them. Mitofusin2 (Mfn2) is a mitochondrial outer membrane protein regulating mitochondrial fusion, a dynamic process essential for mitochondrial function. To explore the significance of neuronal mitochondria in the regulation of neuroinflammation, male and female transgenic mice with forced overexpression of Mfn2 specifically in neurons were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a widely used approach to model neurodegeneration-associated neuroinflammation. Remarkably, LPS-induced lethality was almost completely abrogated in neuronal Mfn2 overexpression mice. Compared with nontransgenic wild-type mice, mice with neuronal Mfn2 overexpression also exhibited alleviated bodyweight loss, behavioral sickness, and myocardial dysfunction. LPS-induced release of IL-1β but not TNF-α was further found greatly inhibited in the CNS of mice with neuronal Mfn2 overexpression, whereas peripheral inflammatory responses in the blood, heart, lung, and spleen remained unchanged. At the cellular and molecular levels, neuronal Mfn2 suppressed the activation of microglia, prevented LPS-induced mitochondrial fragmentation in neurons, and importantly, upregulated the expression of CX3CL1, a unique chemokine constitutively produced by neurons to suppress microglial activation. Together, these results reveal an unrecognized possible role of neuronal mitochondria in the regulation of microglial activation, and propose neuronal Mfn2 as a likely mechanistic linker between neuronal mitochondria dysfunction and neuroinflammation in neurodegeneration.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Our study suggests that Mfn2 in neurons contributes to the regulation of neuroinflammation. Based on the remarkable suppression of LPS-induced neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration-associated mitochondrial dysfunction and dynamic abnormalities by neuronal Mfn2, this study centered on Mfn2-mediated neuroinflammation reveals novel molecular mechanisms that are involved in both mitochondrial dysfunction and neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative diseases. The pharmacological targeting of Mfn2 may present a novel treatment for neuroinflammation-associated diseases.

Abstract
Major antioxidant responses to increased levels of inflammatory, oxidative and nitrosative stress (ONS) are detailed. In response to increasing levels of nitric oxide, S-nitrosylation of cysteine thiol groups leads to post-transcriptional modification of many cellular proteins and thereby regulates their activity and allows cellular adaptation to increased levels of ONS. S-nitrosylation inhibits the function of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells, toll-like receptor-mediated signalling and the activity of several mitogen-activated protein kinases, while activating nuclear translocation of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2 or NFE2L2); in turn, the redox-regulated activation of Nrf2 leads to increased levels and/or activity of key enzymes and transporter systems involved in the glutathione system. The Nrf2/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1 axis is associated with upregulation of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1, which in turn has anti-inflammatory effects. Increased Nrf2 transcriptional activity also leads to activation of haem oxygenase-1, which is associated with upregulation of bilirubin, biliverdin and biliverdin reductase as well as increased carbon monoxide signalling, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity. Associated transcriptional responses, which may be mediated by retrograde signalling owing to elevated hydrogen peroxide, include the unfolded protein response (UPR), mitohormesis and the mitochondrial UPR; the UPR also results from increasing levels of mitochondrial and cytosolic reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species leading to nitrosylation, glutathionylation, oxidation and nitration of crucial cysteine and tyrosine causing protein misfolding and the development of endoplasmic reticulum stress. It is shown how these mechanisms co-operate in forming a co-ordinated rapid and prolonged compensatory antioxidant response system.

Overexpression of transcription factor EB regulates mitochondrial autophagy to protect lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury. Chin Med J (Engl) 2019; 132:1298-1304.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by an acute inflammatory process, and oxidative stress in the lung tissue leads to a lack of effective therapeutics. This study aimed to identify whether the overexpression of transcription factor EB (TFEB) regulates mitophagy to protect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI. METHODS We detected the expression of inflammatory factors, cytochrome c (Cyt.c) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), and autophagy-related proteins and observed the changes in lung histopathology induced by ALI in rats and the changes in the cell ultrastructure of primary alveolar type II epithelial cells induced by changing the expression of TFEB in the context of ALI. RESULTS The overexpression of TFEB could reduce the expression of proinflammatory factors, such as IL-1 and IL-6, and increase the expression of anti-inflammatory factors, such as IL-10, both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, the overexpression of TFEB could reduce the Cyt.c and NADPH levels both in vivo and in vitro. The overexpression of TFEB could upregulate the expression of autophagy-related proteins, such as lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1), microtubule-associated protein light chain 3B (LC3B), and Beclin both in vivo and in vitro, and promote mitochondrial autophagy. The overexpression of TFEB significantly improved the histopathologic changes induced by LPS-induced ALI in rats. However, low TFEB expression produced the opposite results. CONCLUSION TFEB overexpression can decrease inflammation and mitochondrial damage in the lung tissue and alveolar epithelial cells through regulating mitochondrial autophagy to protect against LPS-induced ALI. Therefore, TFEB is likely a potential therapeutic target in LPS-induced ALI.

PI3K/Akt pathway-mediated HO-1 induction regulates mitochondrial quality control and attenuates endotoxin-induced acute lung injury. J Transl Med 2019; 99:1795-1809. [PMID: 31570770 DOI: 10.1038/s41374-019-0286-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 78] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2018] [Revised: 04/26/2019] [Accepted: 05/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Sepsis-related acute lung injury (ALI) remains a major cause of mortality in critically ill patients and lacks specific therapy. Mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in the progression of septic lung injury. Mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy, and biogenesis converge to constitute the assiduous quality control of mitochondria (MQC). Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protects against sepsis-induced ALI through the modulation of mitochondrial dynamics. However, the causal relationship between HO-1 and the general processes of MQC, and their associated cellular pathways in sepsis-related ALI remain ill-defined. Herein, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI in Sprague-Dawley rats together with LPS-induced oxidative injury in RAW264.7 macrophages were used to investigate whether the PI3K/Akt pathway-mediated induction of HO-1 preserves MQC and alleviates septic lung injury. After pretreatment with hemin, a potent inducer of HO-1, LPS-induced cell apoptosis, enhanced mitochondrial fragmentation, and mitochondrial membrane potential damage were significantly reduced in macrophages. In rats, these effects were accompanied by a higher survival rate, less damage to lung tissue, a 28.5% elevation in lung mitochondria MnSOD activity, and a 39.2% increase in respiratory control ratios. Concomitantly, HO-1 induction preserved the dynamic process of mitochondrial fusion/fission (Mfn2, OPA1, Drp1), promoted mitochondrial biogenesis (NRF1, PGC1α, Tfam), and facilitated the key mediators of mitochondrial mitophagy (Parkin, PINK1) at mRNA and protein levels. Notably, LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, or knockdown of PI3K by small interfering RNA significantly suppressed Akt phosphorylation, attenuated HO-1 induction, and further reversed these beneficial effects evoked by hemin pretreatment in RAW264.7 cells or rats received LPS, indicating a direct involvement of PI3K/Akt pathway. Taken together, our results indicated that HO-1 activation, through PI3K/Akt pathway, plays a critical role in protecting lung from oxidative injury in the setting of sepsis by regulating MQC. HO-1 may therefore be a therapeutic target for the prevention sepsis-related lung injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Electroacupuncture has been reported to protect the body from organ damages, but its mechanisms remain to be explored. This research was designed to investigate the function of electroacupuncture in lung injury resulted from hind limb ischemia-reperfusion (LIR) and whether p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK)-mediated nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor-2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase (HO)-1 pathway contributes to the protective effect of electroacupuncture on LIR-originated lung damage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Rabbits were subjected to occluding femoral artery for 2 h. Then they received reperfusion for 4 h to establish lung injury model. Electroacupuncture stimulation was performed bilaterally at Feishu and Zusanli acupoints for 15 min once a day for 5 d before the experiment and throughout the hind LIR model performing in the experimental day. Blood samples and lung tissues were collected to examine the role of electroacupuncture treatment in inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and lung injury. Both the protein expression and the messenger RNA level of Nrf2 and HO-1 were detected. RESULTS The results showed that electroacupuncture treatment remarkably alleviated lung injury, decreased inflammatory cytokines secretion, attenuated lung oxidative stress, increased the amount of Nrf2 and HO-1, and increased the ratio of phospho-p38 MAPK to p38 MAPK after LIR. However, the protective effects exerted by electroacupuncture were reversed to some extent by the preconditioning with SB203580, a p38 MAPK-specific inhibitor. CONCLUSIONS These results suggested that electroacupuncture could attenuate lung injury in rabbits subjected to LIR by inhibition of proinflammatory cytokine response and oxidative stress through activating p38 MAPK-mediated Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Abstract
Excessive reactive oxygen/nitrogen species are considered to be one of the primary events that cause lung injury during sepsis. The present study aimed to determine whether dexmedetomidine (Dex) exhibits antioxidative and antinitrative effects on sepsis-induced lung injury and its effect on heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) activation. The cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) mouse model was used, where male C57BL/6J mice were randomized into groups: Sham, CLP, Dex and Dex + zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP). Following CLP or sham operation, intraperitoneal injections of 40 µg/kg Dex or saline were administered in the Dex + ZnPP group, intraperitoneal injections of ZnPP (40 mg/kg) were administered 1 h prior to the CLP operation. Subsequently, histopathological examination of the lungs and measurement of HO-1 activity in the lung, as well as oxidative and nitrative stress were determined 24 h following CLP. Dex significantly decreased the levels of oxidative and nitrative stress, as demonstrated by the decreased levels of malondialdehyde and nitrotyrosine, and the protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, as well as increased superoxide dismutase in lung tissues. Also Dex inhibited the elevation of serum interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α and increased lung HO-1 activity. Furthermore, the effects of Dex were partially reverted by the HO-1 inhibitor ZnPP. In conclusion, Dex inhibited oxidative/nitrative stress in sepsis and attenuated sepsis-induced acute lung injury partially by increasing HO-1 activity.

Abstract
Significance: Sepsis is the main cause of death among patients admitted to the intensive care unit. As current treatment is limited to antimicrobial therapy and supportive care, mortality remains high, which warrants efforts to find novel therapies. Recent Advances: Mitochondrial dysfunction is emerging as a key process in the induction of organ dysfunction during sepsis, and metabolic resuscitation might reveal to be a novel cornerstone in the treatment of sepsis. Critical Issues: Here, we review novel strategies to maintain organ function in sepsis by precluding mitochondrial dysfunction by lowering energetic demand to allow preservation of adenosine triphosphate-levels, while reducing free radical generation. As the most common strategy to suppress metabolism, that is, cooling, does not reveal unequivocal beneficial effects and may even increase mortality, caloric restriction or modulation of energy-sensing pathways (i.e., sirtuins and AMP-activated protein kinase) may offer safe alternatives. Similar effects may be offered when mimicking hibernation by hydrogen sulfide (H2S). In addition H2S may also confer beneficial effects through upregulation of antioxidant mechanisms, similar to the other gasotransmitters nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, which display antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in sepsis. In addition, oxidative stress may be averted by systemic or mitochondria-targeted antioxidants, of which a wide range are able to lower inflammation, as well as reduce organ dysfunction and mortality from sepsis. Future Directions: Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a key role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. As a consequence, metabolic resuscitation might reveal to be a novel cornerstone in the treatment of sepsis.

Abstract
Sepsis is a dysregulated response to severe infection characterized by life-threatening organ failure and is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Multiple organ failure is the central characteristic of sepsis and is associated with poor outcome of septic patients. Ultrastructural damage to the mitochondria and mitochondrial dysfunction are reported in sepsis. Mitochondrial dysfunction with subsequent ATP deficiency, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) release, and cytochrome c release are all considered to contribute to organ failure. Consistent mitochondrial dysfunction leads to reduced mitochondrial quality control capacity, which eliminates dysfunctional and superfluous mitochondria to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis. Mitochondrial quality is controlled through a series of processes including mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy, and transport processes. Several studies have indicated that multiple organ failure is ameliorated by restoring mitochondrial quality control mechanisms and is further amplified by defective quality control mechanisms. This review will focus on advances concerning potential mechanisms in regulating mitochondrial quality control and impacts of mitochondrial quality control on the progression of sepsis.

Amelioration of Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury in Rats by Na-H Exchanger-1 Inhibitor Amiloride Is Associated with Reversal of ERK Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 2018:3560234.

Abstract
Background Na-H exchanger-1 (NHE-1) is expressed in the lung of rats. Accumulating evidence shows that Na-H exchangers are involved in inflammation. Amiloride, an inhibitor of NHE-1, inhibits the activation of macrophages and endothelial cells and reduces their production of cytokines. Since these processes have been implicated in acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), we examined the protective effect of amiloride on ALI induced by LPS in rats. Material and Methods ALI in specific pathogen-free male Sprague-Dawley rats was induced by an intravenous injection of 6 mg/kg LPS. Amiloride pretreated rats received an intravenous injection of 10 mg/kg amiloride 30 min before the administration of LPS. Controls received normal saline in a similar manner. All animals were sacrificed 6 h after LPS or normal saline administration. The degree of ALI was assessed by wet-to-dry weight ratio (W/D) and lung histological examination. Neutrophilic infiltration was determined by myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in lung tissue. Concentrations of total protein (TP), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were also measured. Expression of NHE-1 and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) p38, p-p38, ERK, and p-ERK was evaluated by western blot analysis. Results Pretreatment with amiloride significantly reduced the increase in W/D, ALI score, lung tissue MPO activity, concentrations of TP, TNF-α, and MIP-2 in BALF, resulting in attenuation of ALI induced by LPS. Meanwhile, levels of NHE-1 and p-ERK proteins were reversed, whereas that of p-p38 was not. Conclusions These findings suggest that NHE-1 inhibitor amiloride could attenuate ALI induced by LPS in rats. This effect is mediated through reversal of ERK.
