Abstract
Greying population is becoming an increasingly critical issue for social development. In advanced aging context, organismal multiple tissues and organs experience a progressive deterioration, initially presenting with functional decline, followed by structural disruption and eventually organ failure. The aging of the gut is one of the key links. Decreased gut function leads to reduced nutrient absorption and can perturb systemic metabolic rates. The degeneration of the intestinal structure causes the migration of harmful components such as pathogens and toxins, inducing pathophysiological changes in other organs through the "brain-gut axis" and "liver-gut axis". There is no accepted singular underlying mechanism of aged gut. While the inflamm-aging theory was first proposed in 2000, the mutual promotion of chronic inflammation and aging has attracted much attention. Numerous studies have established that gut microbiome composition, gut immune function, and gut barrier integrity are involved in the formation of inflammaging in the aging gut. Remarkably, inflammaging additionally drives the development of aging-like phenotypes, such as microbiota dysbiosis and impaired intestinal barrier, via a broad array of inflammatory mediators. Here we demonstrate the mechanisms of inflammaging in the gut and explore whether aging-like phenotypes in the gut can be negated by improving gut inflammaging.

Liraglutide protects against lethal renal ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting high-mobility group box 1 nuclear-cytoplasmic translocation and release. Pharmacol Res 2021; 173:105867. [PMID: 34481074 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2021.105867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2021] [Revised: 08/29/2021] [Accepted: 08/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Liraglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist, has been reported to exert protective effects against myocardial, hepatic, and gastric ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), but whether it can protect against renal IRI remains unknown. Here, a lethal renal IRI model was established with a 100% mortality rate in untreated mice. Treatment with liraglutide involving a regimen of multiple doses resulted in 100% survival, remarkable preservation of renal function, a significant reduction in pathological damage, and blunted upregulation of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, MCP-1, TLR-2, TLR-4, and RAGE mRNA. We found that liraglutide treatment dramatically inhibited ischemia-induced nucleocytoplasmic translocation and release of HMGB1. This inhibition was associated with a marked decrease (~ 60%) in nuclear histone acetyltransferase activity. In addition, the protective effects of liraglutide on renal IRI were largely abolished by the administration of exogenous HMGB1. When the GLP-1R antagonist exendin (9-39) was given to mice before each liraglutide administration, or GLP-1R-/- mice were used for the renal IRI experiments, the protective effect of liraglutide on renal IRI was partially reversed. Moreover, liraglutide pretreatment significantly inhibited HMGB1 nucleocytoplasmic translocation during hypoxic culture of HK-2 cells in vitro, but the addition of exendin (9-39) significantly eliminated this inhibition. We demonstrate here that liraglutide can exert a strong protective effect on lethal renal IRI in mice. This protection appears to be related to the inhibition of HMGB1 nuclear-cytoplasmic translocation and release and partially depends on GLP-1R. Thus, liraglutide may be therapeutically useful for the clinical prevention and treatment of organ IRI.
