Wu D, Liao X, Gao J, Gao Y, Li Q, Gao W. Potential pharmaceuticals targeting neuroimmune interactions in treating acute lung injury. Clin Transl Med 2024; 14:e1808. [PMID: 39129233 DOI: 10.1002/ctm2.1808] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2024] [Revised: 07/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND MAIN BODY Although interactions between the nervous and immune systems have been recognized decades ago, it has become increasingly appreciated that neuroimmune crosstalk is among the driving factors of multiple pulmonary inflammatory diseases including acute lung injury (ALI). Here, we review the current understanding of nerve innervations towards the lung and summarize how the neural regulation of immunity and inflammation participates in the onset and progression of several lung diseases, especially ALI. We then present advancements in the development of potential drugs for ALI targeting neuroimmune interactions, including cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway, sympathetic-immune pathway, purinergic signalling, neuropeptides and renin-angiotensin system at different stages from preclinical investigation to clinical trials, including the traditional Chinese medicine. CONCLUSION This review highlights the importance of considering the therapeutic strategy of inflammatory diseases within a conceptual framework that integrates classical inflammatory cascade and neuroimmune circuits, so as to deepen the understanding of immune modulation and develop more sophisticated approaches to treat lung diseases represented by ALI. KEY POINTS The lungs present abundant nerve innervations. Neuroimmune interactions exert a modulatory effect in the onset and progression of lung inflammatory diseases, especially acute lung injury. The advancements of potential drugs for ALI targeting neuroimmune crosstalk at different stages from preclinical investigation to clinical trials are elaborated. Point out the direction for the development of neuroimmune pharmacology in the future.

Abstract
Pleurisy can be categorized as primary or secondary, arising from immunological, tumorous, or microbial conditions. It often results in lung structure damage and the development of various respiratory issues. Among the different types, tuberculous pleurisy has emerged as a prominent focus for both clinical and scientific investigations. The IL-10 family, known for its anti-inflammatory properties in the human immune system, is increasingly being studied for its involvement in the pathogenesis of pleurisy. This review aims to present a detailed overview of the intricate role of IL-10 family members (specifically IL-10, IL-22, and IL-26) in human and animal pleuritic diseases or relevant animal models. These insights could serve as valuable guidance and references for further studies on pleurisy and potential therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a key enzyme in the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), also serving as an amino acid transporter and a receptor for certain coronaviruses. Its primary role is to protect the cardiovascular system via the ACE2/Ang (1-7)/MasR cascade. Given the critical roles of ACE2 in regulating numerous physiological functions, molecules that can upregulate or activate ACE2 show vast therapeutic value. There are only a few ACE2 activators that have been reported, a wide range of molecules, including food-derived compounds, have been reported as ACE2 up-regulators. Effective doses of bioactive peptides range from 10 to 50 mg/kg body weight (BW)/day when orally administered for 1 to 7 weeks. Protein hydrolysates require higher doses at 1000 mg/kg BW/day for 20 days. Phytochemicals and vitamins are effective at doses typically ranging from 10 to 200 mg/kg BW/day for 3 days to 6 months, while Traditional Chinese Medicine requires doses of 1.25 to 12.96 g/kg BW/day for 4 to 8 weeks. ACE2 activation is linked to its hinge-bending region, while upregulation involves various signaling pathways, transcription factors, and epigenetic modulators. Future studies are expected to explore novel roles of ACE2 activators or up-regulators in disease treatments and translate the discovery to bedside applications.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme - human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells improve pulmonary vascular remodeling in rats with pulmonary hypertension by promoting angiogenesis and counteracting inflammation. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PATHOLOGY 2023; 16:282-293. [PMID: 37970332 PMCID: PMC10641367] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Human Amniotic Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hAMSCs) have strong multidirectional differentiation ability. Studies have found that transfection of target genes into target cells by lentivirus can enhance the differentiation potential of the cells. Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) was found to improve vascular remodeling. Research is lacking on ACE2-hAMSCs. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the ability to improve pulmonary arterial hypertension using ACE2-hAMSCs. METHODS Lentiviruses overexpressing ACE2 were mixed with hAMSCs. Then, ACE2-hAMSCs and hAMSCs with good growth in logarithmic growth phase were collected. We detected their migration and angiogenesis. RT-qPCR technology was used to detect the expression levels of genes related to angiogenesis, and inflammation in the two cell lines, and western-blotting was used to detect the expression levels of ACE2. As an animal study, 21 rats were randomly divided into four different groups. Right heart hypertrophy, pulmonary angiogenesis, and serum inflammatory factors were measured before dissection. H&E staining was used to observe the inflammatory infiltration of lung tissues. RESULTS The migration and angiogenesis of ACE2-hAMSCs were strongerthan that of hAMSCs alone. The expressions of genes in ACE2-hAMSCs were higher, and the expression of ACE2 protein in ACE2-hAMSCs was less. H&E staining showed that the inflammatory infilration of lung tissue in ACE2-hAMSCs groups was significantly improved. In addition, the ACE2-hAMSCs group had stronger pro-angiogenesis and anti-inflammatory effects. CONCLUSION These results suggest that ACE2-hAMSCs can repair pulmonary vascular endothelial cell injury caused by pulmonary hypertension by promoting angiogenesis and anti-inflammatory ability. This shows that ACE2-hAMSCs have stronger ability to improve pulmonary vascular remodeling than hAMSCs alone.

Recombinant human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 plays a protective role in mice with sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction through multiple signaling pathways dependent on converting angiotensin II to angiotensin 1-7. ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2023; 11:13. [PMID: 36760245 PMCID: PMC9906207 DOI: 10.21037/atm-22-6016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
Background Sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction (SICD) is a common complication of sepsis and contributes to mortality and the complexity of management in patients with sepsis. Recombinant human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (rhACE2) has been reported to protect the heart from injury and dysfunction in conditions which involve increased angiotensin II (Ang II). In this study, we aimed to detect the effects of rhACE2 on SICD. Methods A SICD model was developed in male C57/B6 mice by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) intraperitoneal injection. When cardiac dysfunction was confirmed by echocardiography 3 hours after LPS administration, mice were treated with either saline, rhACE2, or rhACE2 + A779. All mice received echocardiographic examination at 6 hours after LPS injection and then were sacrificed for serum and myocardial tissues collection. Angiotensin, cardiac troponin I (cTnI), and inflammatory markers in serum were measured. Histopathology features were examined by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining to evaluate structure injury and cell pyroptosis rate in heart tissue respectively. Pyroptosis-related proteins and signaling pathways involved in nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation in heart tissue were investigated by western blot (WB). Results RhACE2 relieved myocardial injury and improved cardiac function in mice with SICD accompanied by decrease of Ang II and increase of angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7) in serum. RhACE2 diminished activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, inflammatory response, and cell pyroptosis induced by LPS. In addition, rhACE2 partly inhibited activation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, and promoted activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase-α1 (AMPK-α1) pathway in heart tissue. Administration of A779 offset the inhibitive effects of rhACE2 on NLRP3 expression and protective role on cardiac injury and dysfunction in mice with SICD. Conclusions RhACE2 plays a protective role in SICD, ameliorating cardiac injury and dysfunction through NF-κB, p38 MAPK, and the AMPK-α1/NLRP3 inflammasome pathway dependent on converting Ang II to Ang 1-7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no available viable treatment for Sepsis-Induced Cardiomyopathy (SIC), a common sepsis complication with a higher fatality risk. The septic patients showed an abnormal activation of the renin angiotensin (Ang) aldosterone system (RAAS). However, it is not known how the Ang II and Ang-(1-7) affect SIC. METHODS Peripheral plasma was collected from the Healthy Control (HC) and septic patients and Ang II and Ang-(1-7) protein concentrations were measured. The in vitro and in vivo models of SIC were developed using Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to preliminarily explore the relationship between the SIC state, Ang II, and Ang-(1-7) levels, along with the protective function of exogenous Ang-(1-7) on SIC. RESULTS Peripheral plasma Ang II and the Ang II/Ang-(1-7) levels in SIC-affected patients were elevated compared to the levels in HC and non-SIC patients, however, the HC showed higher Ang-(1-7) levels. Furthermore, peripheral plasma Ang II, Ang II/Ang-(1-7), and Ang-(1-7) levels in SIC patients were significantly correlated with the degree of myocardial injury. Additionally, exogenous Ang-(1-7) can attenuate inflammatory response, reduce oxidative stress, maintain mitochondrial dynamics homeostasis, and alleviate mitochondrial structural and functional damage by inhibiting nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways, thus alleviating SIC. CONCLUSIONS Plasma Ang-(1-7), Ang II, and Ang II/Ang-(1-7) levels were regarded as significant SIC biomarkers. In SIC, therapeutic targeting of RAAS, for example with Ang-(1-7), may exert protective roles against myocardial damage.

Abstract
CONTEXT Acute lung injury (ALI) is a serious heterogenous pulmonary disorder. Fraxinol was selected for this study since it is a simple coumarin compound, not previously investigated in ALI. OBJECTIVES This study investigates the ALI therapeutic effect and mechanisms of fraxinol. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male BALB/c mice were treated with fraxinol (20, 40, and 80 mg/kg) following intranasal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 10 μg in 50 μL). The mice in control group were intratracheally injected with 50 μL phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Raw264.7 cells were treated with fraxinol by 100 ng/mL LPS for 6 h, then treated by different concentrations of fraxinol (5, 10, and 25 μM) for 48 h. Cells in control group were treated with PBS. RESULTS Fraxinol with doses of 20, 40, and 80 mg/kg significantly attenuated LPS-induced lung injury in mice (lung injury score, 10.4, 31.2, 50.3%). Fraxinol attenuated the apoptosis and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing-3 (NLRP3) activation induced by LPS (apoptosis, 18.3, 30.2, 55.6%; NLRP3, 30.0, 47.7, 63.6%). The anti-apoptosis and anti-inflammation effects of fraxinol were also confirmed in Raw264.7 cells (apoptosis, 38.8, 55.3, 68.9%; NLRP3, 20.6, 55.7, 73.9%). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION The anti-ALI effects of fraxinol maybe by equilibrating ACE-Ang II-AT1R and ACE2-Ang (1-7)-Mas axis and inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome. Our research provides a candidate drug in the treatment of ALI.

The Pretreatment of Xiaoqinglong Decoction Alleviates Inflammation and Oxidative Damage and Up-Regulates Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 in Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Septic Acute Lung Injury Rats. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:2421198. [PMID: 36193122 PMCID: PMC9526646 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2421198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2021] [Revised: 07/10/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Xiaoqinglong decoction (XQLD), a classic prescription of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has already been used clinically to cure acute lung injury (ALI), but its mechanism remains unclear. This subject aimed to explore the preventive role of XQLD in septic ALI rats besides its effects on angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)2 and its downstream factors. After, respectively, administrated with different concentrations of XQLD (6.25 g/kg/d, 12.5 g/kg/d, 25 g/kg/d) for 5 days and dexamethasone (DEX, 1 mg/kg) for 0.5 h, the rat models of ALI were established by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 5 mg/kg) for 24 h. All rats were evaluated by lung function test, arterial blood gas analysis, morphological observation, lung wet/dry (W/D) ratio, and the lung injury score. The levels of malonaldehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and angiotensin (Ang) (1–7) in the lung were measured through biochemical and ELISA kits. The expressions of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)2, mitochondrial assembly receptor (MasR), and nuclear factor (NF)-κB in lung tissue were detected by qRT-PCR and western blotting. Positive reaction cells of MasR were observed by immunohistochemistry. The results show that XQLD significantly ameliorated septic lung injury including edema and hemorrhage, as well as improved pulmonary function and arterial blood gas. Furthermore, XQLD markedly decreased the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, MDA, and NF-κB while increased the levels of SOD, Ang (1–7), ACE2, and MasR in septic ALI rats. Pearson correlation showed that the expressions of ACE2 were inversely related to IL-1β, TNF-α, MDA, and NF-κB and positively correlated with SOD contents. Our data indicated that XQLD pretreatment alleviated inflammation and oxidative damage in septic ALI rats, which might be related to the up-regulation of ACE2-Ang (1–7)-MasR axis and inhibition of the NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This review aims to summarize the capability of lipoxin in regulating oxidative stress. BACKGROUND Oxidative stress is defined as an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the antioxidant system, and it is associated with the existence of a large number of oxidation products, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reaction nitrogen species (RNS), causing damage to human tissues through immunoinflammatory responses. Therefore, reducing oxidative stress is vital to alleviate pathological damage. Lipoxin, an acronym for lipoxygenase interaction product, is a bioactive autacoid metabolite of arachidonic acid made by various cell types. Previous studies have shown that lipoxin is associated with a variety of biological functions, including anti-inflammatory, regulating immune responses, promoting the repair of damaged cells, etc. The deficiency of lipoxin is a critical pathological mechanism in different diseases. Moreover, the ability of lipoxin to attenuate oxidative stress is noteworthy, thereby protecting the human body from diverse diseases. METHODS We searched papers from PubMed database using search terms, such as lipoxin, lipoxin A4, oxidative stress, and other relevant terms. RESULTS A total of 103 articles published over the past 20 years were identified for inclusion. We summarized the capability of lipoxin in regulating oxidative stress and mechanism. CONCLUSION Lipoxin is provided with a protective role in attenuating oxidative stress.

Abstract
Nonphlogistic migration of macrophages contributes to the clearance of pathogens and apoptotic cells, a critical step for the resolution of inflammation and return to homeostasis. Angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] is a heptapeptide of the renin-angiotensin system that acts through Mas receptor (MasR). Ang-(1-7) has recently emerged as a novel proresolving mediator, yet Ang-(1-7) resolution mechanisms are not fully determined. Herein, Ang-(1-7) stimulated migration of human and murine monocytes/macrophages in a MasR-, CCR2-, and MEK/ERK1/2–dependent manner. Pleural injection of Ang-(1-7) promoted nonphlogistic mononuclear cell influx alongside increased levels of CCL2, IL-10, and macrophage polarization toward a regulatory phenotype. Ang-(1-7) induction of CCL2 and mononuclear cell migration was also dependent on MasR and MEK/ERK. Of note, MasR was upregulated during the resolution phase of inflammation, and its pharmacological inhibition or genetic deficiency impaired mononuclear cell recruitment during self-resolving models of LPS pleurisy and E. coli peritonitis. Inhibition/absence of MasR was associated with reduced CCL2 levels, impaired phagocytosis of bacteria, efferocytosis, and delayed resolution of inflammation. In summary, we have uncovered a potentially novel proresolving feature of Ang-(1-7), namely the recruitment of mononuclear cells favoring efferocytosis, phagocytosis, and resolution of inflammation. Mechanistically, cell migration was dependent on MasR, CCR2, and the MEK/ERK pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung ischaemia reperfusion injury (LIRI) is the major cause of primary lung dysfunction after lung transplantation. Lipoxin A4 inhibits the oxidative stress and inflammation. This study aimed to evaluate the potential protective effect of lipoxin A4 on LIRI in rats. METHODS SD (Sprague-Dawley) rats were randomised into the sham, LIRI and LA4 groups. Rats in the sham group received anaesthesia, thoracotomy and intravenous injection of saline, while those in the LIRI or LA4 group received left lung transplantation and intravenous injection of saline or lipoxin A4, respectively. After 24 h of reperfusion, the PaO2/FiO2 (Partial pressure of O2 to fraction inspiratory O2), wet/dry weight ratios and protein levels in lungs were measured to assess the alveolar capillary permeability. The oxidative stress response and inflammation were examined. The histological and apoptosis analyses of lung tissues were performed via HE staining (Haematoxylin-eosin staining) and TUNEL assay, respectively. The effects of lipoxin A4 on the endothelial viability and tube formation of hypoxaemia and reoxygenation-challenged rat pulmonary microvascular endothelium cells were determined. RESULTS Lipoxin A4 significantly ameliorated the alveolar capillary permeability, reduced the oxidative stress and inflammation in transplanted lungs. The histological injury and apoptosis of lung tissues were also alleviated by lipoxin A4. In vitro lipoxin A4 treatment promoted the endothelial tube formation and improved the endothelial viability. CONCLUSION Lipoxin A4 protects LIRI after lung transplantation in rats, and its therapeutic effect is associated with the properties of anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, and endothelium protection.Key messages:Lung transplantation is a treatment approach for the patients with lung disease.LIRI is the major cause of postoperative primary lung dysfunction.Lipoxins A4 exhibits strong anti-inflammatory properties.

Angiotensin-(1-7) Peptide Hormone Reduces Inflammation and Pathogen Burden during Mycoplasma pneumoniae Infection in Mice. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13101614.

Abstract
The peptide hormone, angiotensin (Ang-(1–7)), produces anti-inflammatory and protective effects by inhibiting production and expression of many cytokines and adhesion molecules that are associated with a cytokine storm. While Ang-(1–7) has been shown to reduce inflammation and airway hyperreactivity in models of asthma, little is known about the effects of Ang-(1–7) during live respiratory infections. Our studies were developed to test if Ang-(1–7) is protective in the lung against overzealous immune responses during an infection with Mycoplasma pneumonia (Mp), a common respiratory pathogen known to provoke exacerbations in asthma and COPD patients. Wild type mice were treated with infectious Mp and a subset of was given either Ang-(1–7) or peptide-free vehicle via oropharyngeal delivery within 2 h of infection. Markers of inflammation in the lung were assessed within 24 h for each set of animals. During Mycoplasma infection, one high dose of Ang-(1–7) delivered to the lungs reduced neutrophilia and Muc5ac, as well as Tnf-α and chemokines (Cxcl1) associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Despite decreased inflammation, Ang-(1-7)-treated mice also had significantly lower Mp burden in their lung tissue, indicating decreased airway colonization. Ang-(1–7) also had an impact on RAW 264.7 cells, a commonly used macrophage cell line, by dose-dependently inhibiting TNF-α production while promoting Mp killing. These new findings provide additional support to the protective role(s) of Ang1-7 in controlling inflammation, which we found to be highly protective against live Mp-induced lung inflammation.

Abstract
Inflammation is an essential mechanism of various diseases. The development and resolution of inflammation are complex immune-modulation processes which induce the involvement of various types of immune cells. Specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs) have been demonstrated to be signaling molecules in inflammation. SPMs are involved in the pathophysiology of different diseases, especially respiratory diseases, including asthma, pneumonia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. All of these diseases are related to the inflammatory response and its persistence. Therefore, a deeper understanding of the mechanisms and development of inflammation in respiratory disease, and the roles of the SPM family in the resolution process, might be useful in the quest for novel therapies and preventive measures for pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
The recent emergence of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) as a global pandemic has prompted scientists to address an urgent need for defining mechanisms of disease pathology and treatment. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent for COVID-19, employs angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as its primary target for cell surface attachment and likely entry into the host cell. Thus, understanding factors that may regulate the expression and function of ACE2 in the healthy and diseased body is critical for clinical intervention. Over 66% of all adults in the United States are currently using a prescription drug and while earlier findings have focused on possible upregulation of ACE2 expression through the use of renin angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors, mounting evidence suggests that various other widely administered drugs used in the treatment of hypertension, heart failure, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemias, coagulation disorders, and pulmonary disease may also present a varied risk for COVID-19. Specifically, we summarize mechanisms on how heparin, statins, steroids and phytochemicals, besides their established therapeutic effects, may also interfere with SARS-CoV-2 viral entry into cells. We also describe evidence on the effect of several vitamins, phytochemicals, and naturally occurring compounds on ACE2 expression and activity in various tissues and disease models. This comprehensive review aims to provide a timely compendium on the potential impact of commonly prescribed drugs and pharmacologically active compounds on COVID-19 pathology and risk through regulation of ACE2 and RAS signaling.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the pathogen of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused the outbreak escalated to pandemic. Reports suggested that near 1-3% of COVID-19 cases have a fatal outcome. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) are widely used in hypertension, heart failure and chronic kidney disease. These drugs have been reported to upregulate angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) which produces Ang (1-7), the main counter-regulatory mediator of angiotensin II. This enzyme is also known as the receptor of SARS-CoV-2 promoting the cellular uptake of the virus in the airways, however, ACE2 itself proved to be protective in several experimental models of lung injury. The present study aimed to systematically review the relationship between ACEI/ARB administration and ACE2 expression in experimental models. After a comprehensive search and selection, 27 animal studies investigating ACE2 expression in the context of ACEI and ARB were identified. The majority of these papers reported increased ACE2 levels in response to ACEI/ARB treatment. This result should be interpreted in the light of the dual role of ACE2 being a promoter of viral entry to cells and a protective factor against oxidative damage in the lungs.

Abstract
This study explores the protective mechanism of angiotensin (1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] on kidneys by examining its effects on renal histomorphology, inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and NF-κB signaling in mice suffering from sepsis-induced acute kidney injury. A sepsis-induced acute kidney injury mouse model was established by intracervically injecting lipopolysaccharides (LPS group), followed by the administration of Ang-(1-7) [LPS + Ang-(1-7) group]. The serum levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine and cystatin. c were measured with an automatic biochemical analyzer, and changes in proinflammatory cytokines and angiotensin II (Ang II) in the serum and kidneys were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Changes in oxidative stress indices in the renal cortex were detected by colorimetry. The localization of Ang II in kidneys was examined by immunohistochemistry. Western blotting was used to examine phosphorylated NF-κB-p65 and IκBα levels in kidneys. Compared with the control group, the serum levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine and cystatin. c were increased, whereas the levels of Ang II, TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, and malondialdehyde (mda) were increased significantly. The levels of Ang II and phosphorylated NF-κB-p65 were elevated in kidneys, whereas the levels of superoxide dismutase (sod), Total antioxidative capacity (TAOC), and inhibitor of NF-κB (IκBα) were reduced in the LPS group (p < 0.05). Pathological damage was also observed in kidneys of LPS-group mice. In Pearson correlation analysis, there was a positive correlation between Ang II and phosphorylated NF-κB-p65 levels, and a negative correlation between Ang II and IκBα levels (p < 0.05). After the application of Ang-(1-7), the levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine, cystatin. c, Ang II, TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, and mda, as well as the expression of Ang II and phosphorylated NF-κB-p65 in kidneys of LPS + Ang-(1-7)-group mice, were lower than those in kidneys of LPS-group mice, but the levels of sod, TAOC, and IκBα were higher than those of LPS-group mice (p < 0.05). Pathological changes were less severe in mice of the LPS + Ang-(1-7) group. Overall, Ang-(1-7) can decrease the Ang II level, inhibit NF-κB signaling, reduce the inflammatory response, decrease oxidative stress, and mitigate sepsis-associated acute kidney injury.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is one common environmental pollutant with systemic toxicity. Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) can regulate transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) pathway and alleviate tissue injury via binding to formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2). The activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway can promote the occurence of necroptosis. However, whether Cd exposure induces necroptosis in swine myocardium and the role of FPR2/TGF-β/NF-κB pathway in this process are unclear. Hence, we established Cd-exposed swine myocardial injury model by feeding a CdCl2 added diet (20 mg Cd/kg diet). Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining was used to observe the morphological changes, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was performed to detect the levels of ion elements in myocardium. We further detected LXA4 and its receptor FPR2, TGF-β, Nrf2, NF-κB pathway and necroptosis related-genes expressions by RT-PCR and western blot. The results showed that Cd exposure induced necrotic cell death and ion homeostasis imbalance in swine myocardium. Moreover, Cd exposure increased the LXA4 content, inhibited the FPR2 expression, activated TGF-β pathway and suppressed Nrf2 pathway, activating the NF-κB pathway. In addition, Cd exposure increased the expressions of necroptosis related-genes TNF-α, TNFR1, RIP1, RIP3 and MLKL. It indicated Cd exposure induced necroptosis via FPR2/TGF-β/NF-κB pathway, revealing the potential mechanism of Cd-induced cardiotoxicity in swine myocardium.

Abstract
Inflammation is an a physiological response instead an essential response of the organism to injury and its adequate resolution is essential to restore homeostasis. However, defective resolution can be the precursor of severe forms of chronic inflammation and fibrosis. Nowadays, it is known that an excessive inflammatory response underlies the most prevalent human pathologies worldwide. Therefore, great biomedical research efforts have been driven toward discovering new strategies to promote the resolution of inflammation with fewer side-effects and more specificity than the available anti-inflammatory treatments. In this line, the use of endogenous specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) has gained a prominent interest. Among the different SPMs described, lipoxins stand out as one of the most studied and their deficiency has been widely associated with a wide range of pathologies. In this review, we examined the current knowledge on the therapeutic potential of lipoxins to treat diseases characterized by a severe inflammatory background affecting main physiological systems, paying special attention to the signaling pathways involved. Altogether, we provide an updated overview of the evidence suggesting that increasing endogenously generated lipoxins may emerge as a new therapeutic approach to prevent and treat many of the most prevalent diseases underpinned by an increased inflammatory response.

Abstract
Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is a severe and inevitable complication in patients who require mechanical ventilation (MV) for respiratory support. Lipoxin A4 is an endogenous anti-inflammatory and antioxidant mediator. The present study determined the effects of lipoxin A4 on VILI. Twenty-four rats were randomized to the sham, VILI, and lipoxin A4 (LX4) groups. The rats in the VILI and LX4 groups received large-volume MV for 4 hours to simulate VILI. Capillary permeability was evaluated using the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, lung wet/dry weight ratio, and protein level in the lung. VILI-induced inflammation was assessed by measuring cytokines in serum and lung tissue, the expression and activity of NF-κB, and phosphorylated myosin light chain. The oxidative stress response, lung tissue injury, and apoptosis in lung tissue were also estimated, and the expression of apoptotic proteins was examined. MV worsened all of the indices compared to the sham group. Compared to the VILI group, the LX4 group showed significantly improved alveolar-capillary permeability (increased PaO2/FiO2 and decreased wet/dry weight ratios and protein levels), ameliorated histological injury, and reduced local and systemic inflammation (downregulated proinflammatory factors and NF-κB expression and activity). Lipoxin A4 notably inhibited the oxidative stress response and apoptosis and balanced apoptotic protein levels in lung tissue. Lipoxin A4 protects against VILI via anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiapoptotic effects.

[PMID: 32926917 PMCID: PMC7485553 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2020.173545] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Revised: 09/05/2020] [Accepted: 09/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has resulted in almost 28 million cases of COVID-19 (Corona virus disease-2019) and more than 900000 deaths worldwide since December 2019. In the absence of effective antiviral therapy and vaccine, treatment of COVID-19 is largely symptomatic. By making use of its spike (S) protein, the virus binds to its primary human cell receptor, angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) which is present in the pulmonary epithelial cells as well as other organs. SARS-CoV-2 may cause a downregulation of ACE2. ACE2 plays a protective role in the pulmonary system through its Mas-receptor and alamandine-MrgD-TGR7 pathways. Loss of this protective effect could be a major component of COVID-19 pathogenesis. An attractive strategy in SARS-CoV-2 therapeutics would be to augment ACE2 either directly by supplementation or indirectly through drugs which increase its levels or stimulate its downstream players. In this semi-systematic review, we have analysed the pathophysiological interplay between ACE and ACE2 in the cardiopulmonary system, the modulation of these two proteins by SARS-CoV-2, and potential therapeutic avenues targeting ACE-Ang II and ACE2-Ang (1-7) axes, that can be utilized against COVID-19 disease progression.

Terruzzi I, Senesi P. Does intestinal dysbiosis contribute to an aberrant inflammatory response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in frail patients? Nutrition 2020; 79-80:110996.

Abstract
In a few months, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has become the main health problem worldwide. Epidemiologic studies revealed that populations have different vulnerabilities to SARS-CoV-2. Severe outcomes of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with an increased risk of death are observed in patients with metabolic syndrome, as well as diabetic and heart conditions (frail population). Excessive proinflammatory cytokine storm could be the main cause of increased vulnerability in this frail population. In patients with diabetes and/or heart disease, a low inflammatory state is often associated with gut dysbiosis. The increase amount of microbial metabolites (i.e., trimethylamine N-oxide and lipopolysaccharide), which generate an inflammatory microenvironment, is probably associated with an improved risk of severe illness from COVID-19. Nutritional interventions aimed at restoring the gut microbial balance could represent preventive strategies to protect the frail population from COVID-19. This narrative review presents the possible molecular mechanisms by which intestinal dysbiosis that enhances the inflammatory state could promote the spread of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Some nutritional strategies to counteract inflammation in frail patients are also analyzed.

Huang H, Wang J, Liu Z, Gao F. The angiotensin-converting enzyme 2/angiotensin (1-7)/mas axis protects against pyroptosis in LPS-induced lung injury by inhibiting NLRP3 activation. Arch Biochem Biophys 2020; 693:108562. [PMID: 32866470 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2020.108562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2020] [Revised: 08/09/2020] [Accepted: 08/24/2020] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
Previous studies have suggested that pyroptosis may play an important role in LPS-induced acute lung injury (ALI), but the exact mechanism of pyroptosis induction and the role of Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/Ang (1-7)/Mas axis in pyroptosis has not been investigated yet. The present study aimed to establish a mice model of ALI and clarify the involvement of pyroptosis and ACE2/Ang (1-7)/Mas axis. The results showed that LPS induced pyroptosis in lung, demonstrated by increased expression of Gasdermin D (GSDMD), cleaved GSDMD, IL-1β, and Caspase-1. Treatment of Ang (1-7) significantly reduced the severity of ALI and pyroptosis, while AngII significantly exaggerated them. Furthermore, ACE2 activator resorcinolnaphthalein (RES) significantly reduced the severity of ALI and pyroptosis, but ACE2 inhibitor MLN-4760 and Mas inhibitor A779 significantly exaggerated them, suggesting that the ACE2/Ang (1-7)/Mas axis was involved in the pyroptosis in LPS-induced ALI. In addition, Ang (1-7) and RES significantly decreased the levels of NLRP3, which were increased by AngII and A779. NLRP3 knockout significantly reduced the severity of ALI and pyroptosis. In conclusion, pyroptosis played an important role in ALI induced by LPS. The ACE2/Ang (1-7)/Mas axis negatively regulated the pyroptosis and protected mice against LPS-induced ALI through NLRP3 inhibition. The present study expanded our understating of the role of ACE2/Ang (1-7)/Mas axis in ALI by providing a novel explanation that it may regulate the pyroptosis in ALI.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal-recessive multi-organ disease characterized by airways obstruction, recurrent infections, and systemic inflammation. Vasculitis is a severe complication of CF that affects 2-3% of CF patients and is generally associated with poor prognosis. Various pathogenic mechanisms may be involved in the development of CF-related vasculitis. Bacterial colonization leads to persistent activation of neutrophilic granulocytes, inflammation and damage, contributing to the production of antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCAs). The presence of ANCA may on the other hand predispose to bacterial colonization and infection, likely entertaining a vicious circle amplifying inflammation and damage. As a result, in CF-associated vasculitis, ongoing inflammation, immune cell activation, the presence of pathogens, and the use of numerous medications may lead to immune complex formation and deposition, subsequently causing leukocytoclastic vasculitis. Published individual case reports and small case series suggest that patients with CF-associated vasculitis require immune modulating treatment, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, hydroxychloroquine, and/or disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). As immunosuppression increases the risk of infection and/or malignancy, which are both already increased in people with CF, possible alternative medications may involve the blockade of individual cytokine or inflammatory pathways, or the use of novel CFTR modulators. This review summarizes molecular alterations involved in CF-associated vasculitis, clinical presentation, and complications, as well as currently available and future treatment options.

ZHONGGUO DANG DAI ER KE ZA ZHI = CHINESE JOURNAL OF CONTEMPORARY PEDIATRICS 2019; 21:601-606. [PMID: 31208517 PMCID: PMC7389568 DOI: 10.7499/j.issn.1008-8830.2019.06.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2018] [Accepted: 05/07/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the effect of early intervention with lipoxin A4 (LXA4) on septic mice. METHODS Healthy male Balb/c mice aged 6-8 weeks were randomly divided into sham-operation group, sepsis group, 1-hour intervention group (intervention at 1 hour after sepsis), and 6-hour intervention group (intervention at 6 hours after sepsis) (n=8 each). A sepsis model was prepared by cecal ligation and puncture. The intervention groups received LXA4 at 0.01 μg/g body weight 1 or 6 hours after the model was established. Blood was taken from eyeballs at 24 hours after operation. Peritoneal lavage fluid and liver and lung tissue samples were collected. The bacterial colonies of whole blood and peritoneal lavage fluid were counted by dilution plating. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were determined by cytometric bead array. The serum level of high mobility group box-1 (HGMB1) was determined using ELISA. The percentages of macrophages and neutrophils in peritoneal lavage fluid were determined by flow cytometry. Paraffin sectioning and hematoxylin-eosin staining were performed for the liver and lung tissue samples to observe pathological damage. RESULTS Compared with the sham-operation group, the sepsis group had a significantly decreased percentage of macrophages and a significantly increased percentage of neutrophils in peritoneal lavage fluid (P<0.05), as well as significantly increased serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MCP-1, and HMGB1 (P<0.05); in addition, the sepsis group showed more vacuolar degeneration, hepatocyte swelling, and inflammatory cell infiltration in liver tissue, and more capillary congestion, pulmonary septal thickening, inflammatory cell infiltration, and partial tissue destruction in lung tissue. Compared with the sepsis group, the 1-hour and 6-hour intervention groups had a significantly increased percentage of macrophages in peritoneal lavage fluid (P<0.05) and significantly reduced bacterial load in whole blood (P<0.05), serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MCP-1, and HMGB1 (P<0.05), and degree of liver and lung tissue damage and inflammatory cell infiltration, but there was no significant difference in the percentage of neutrophils and bacterial load in peritoneal lavage fluid (P>0.05). Compared with the 6-hour intervention group, the 1-hour intervention group had a significantly decreased serum level of HMGB1 (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in other indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Early intervention with LXA4 may attenuate liver and lung injuries in septic mice, which may be explained by the decrease in serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MCP-1, and HMGB1, and it also may reduce the bacterial dissemination in the whole blood of septic mice, which may be explained by the increase in the percentage of peritoneal macrophages.
