Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 136:112370. [PMID: 38823174 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112370] [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: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
Reperfusion after myocardial ischemia would aggravate myocardial structural and functional damage, known as myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Cinnamamide derivatives have been reported to exert cardioprotective effects, and we have previously reported that compound 7 played a role in cardioprotection against MI/R via anti-inflammatory effect. However, exact mechanism underlying such beneficial action of compound 7 is still unclear. The protective effect of compound 7 was determined in H9c2 cells under H2O2 stimulation with or without nigerin (NLRP3 activator). Electrocardiogram, echocardiography, myocardial infarction size, histopathology and serum biochemical assay were performed in MI/R rats. Metabolomics in vivo and mRNA or protein levels of NLRP3, ASC, cleaved caspase-1 and its downstream IL-18 and IL-1β were detected both in vitro and in vivo. Compound 7 significantly ameliorate H2O2-induced cardiomyocyte damage, which was supported by in vivo data determined by improved left ventricular systolic function and histopathological changes, reduced myocardial infarction area and cellular apoptosis in heart tissue. Cardiac differential metabolites demonstrated that compound 7 indeed altered the cardiac reprogramming of inflammation-related metabolites, which was evidenced by down-regulated cardiac inflammation by compound 7. Additionally, compound 7 alleviated myocardial injury by inhibiting the NLRP3 pathway rather than other members of the inflammasome both in vitro and in vivo, which was further evidenced by CETSA assay. Whereas, nigerin blocked the inhibitory activity of compound 7 against NLRP3. Cinnamamide derivative compound 7 ameliorated MI/R injury by inhibiting inflammation via NLRP3.

Abstract
Activation of the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome signaling pathway is an important mechanism underlying myocardial pyroptosis and plays an important role in inflammatory damage to myocardial tissue in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), such as diabetic cardiomyopathy, ischemia/reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, heart failure and hypertension. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are important regulatory factors. Many Chinese medicine (CM) compounds, including their effective components, can regulate pyroptosis and exert myocardium-protecting effects. The mechanisms underlying this protection include inhibition of inflammasome protein expression, Toll-like receptor 4-NF-κB signal pathway activation, oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), and mixed lineage kinase 3 expression and the regulation of silent information regulator 1. The NLRP3 protein is an important regulatory target for CVD prevention and treatment with CM. Exploring the effects of the interventions mediated by CM and the related mechanisms provides new ideas and perspectives for CVD prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Increasing evidences demonstrate that chlorogenic acid (CGA), a polyphenol with multiple effects such as anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation, protects against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) in vitro and in vivo. But its detailed cardiac protection mechanism is still unclear. The MIRI mice model was established by ligating the left anterior descending branch (LAD) of the left coronary artery in C57BL/6 mice. Sixty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups. CGA group and CGA + I/R group (each group n = 15) were gavaged with 30 mg/kg/day CGA for 4 weeks. Sham group and I/R group mice (each group n = 15) were administered equal volumes of saline. In vitro MIRI model was constructed by hypoxia and reoxygenation of HL-1 cardiomyocytes. The results showed that CGA pretreatment reduced myocardial infarction size and cTnT contents in serum, simultaneously reduced the levels of Lnc Neat1 expression and attenuated NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis in myocardial tissue. Consistent with in vivo results, the pretreatment of 0.2 μM and 2 μM CGA for 12 h in HL-1 cardiomyocytes depressed hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced Lnc Neat1 expression, NLRP3 inflammasome activation and pyroptosis. Lnc Neat1 shRNA transfection mediated by lentivirus in HL-1 cardiomyocytes significantly reduced activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and pyroptosis. Our findings suggest that CGA protects against MIRI by depressing Lnc Neat1 expression and NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyrotosis. Inhibiting the levels of Lnc Neat1 expression may be a therapeutic strategy for MIRI.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1410.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of vision loss and a major complication of diabetes. Hyperglycemia-induced accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an important risk factor for DR. β-asarone, a major component of volatile oil extracted from Acori graminei Rhizoma, exerts antioxidant effects; however, its efficacy in DR remains unknown. In this study, we investigated whether β-asarone inhibits high-glucose (HG)-induced oxidative damage in human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) ARPE-19 cells. We found that β-asarone significantly alleviated cytotoxicity, apoptosis, and DNA damage in HG-treated ARPE-19 cells via scavenging of ROS generation. β-Asarone also significantly attenuated the excessive accumulation of lactate dehydrogenase and mitochondrial ROS by increasing the manganese superoxide dismutase and glutathione activities. HG conditions markedly increased the release of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 and upregulated their protein expression and activation of the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway, whereas β-asarone reversed these effects. Moreover, expression levels of the NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome multiprotein complex molecules, including thioredoxin-interacting protein, NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase-recruitment domain, and cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-1, were increased in ARPE-19 cells under HG conditions. However, their expression levels remained similar to those in the control group in the presence of β-asarone. Therefore, β-asarone protects RPE cells from HG-induced injury by blocking ROS generation and NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome activation, indicating its potential as a therapeutic agent for DR treatment.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable pathological process after organic transplantations. Although traditional treatments restore the blood supply of ischemic organs, the damage caused by IRI is always ignored. Therefore, the ideal and effective therapeutic strategy to mitigate IRI is warrented. Curcumin is a type of polyphenols, processing such properties as anti-oxidative stress, anti-inflammation and anti-apoptosis. However, although many researches have been confirmed that curcumin can exert great effects on the mitigation of IRI, there are still some controversies about its underlying mechanisms among these researches. Thus, this review is to summarize the protective role of curcumin against IRI as well as the controversies of current researches, so as to clarify its underlying mechanisms clearly and provide clinicians a novel idea of the therapy for IRI.

Abstract
Evidence suggests that CXC motif chemokines are involved in neuronal injury and inflammatory processes. Bioinformatics analysis by using data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was performed and identified CXC motif chemokine ligands (CXCLs) as associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). The present study focused on CXC motif chemokine ligand 2 (CXCL2), and the role and potential mechanisms of CXCL2 in DPN were investigated. The DPN rat model was generated by streptozotocin (STZ) injection in vivo, and high-glucose (HG)-stimulated Schwann cell RSC96 was considered a cell model of DPN in vitro. Neuropathic symptoms of DPN were explored by neurological tests and histological examinations. DPN rats showed a decreased level of motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) along with typical histological changes. CXCL2 expression was significantly increased in STZ-induced DPN rat sciatic nerve and HG-induced RSC96 cells. Functionally, CXCL2 knockdown inhibited cell apoptosis and inflammation activation under diabetic conditions in vitro and in vivo. CXCL2 knockdown increased cell viability in HG-treated RSC96 cells and reduced apoptosis concerning the decreased expression of cleaved Caspase 3/9. In addition, CXCL2 knockdown protected against NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation and reduced levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18. The repressive effects of CXCL2 knockdown on inflammasome activation under HG conditions were significantly abolished by treatment of the NLRP3 activator nigericin. In conclusion, these results indicated that CXCL2 knockdown exhibited amelioration of hyperglycemia-induced DPN by inhibiting cell apoptosis and NLRP3 inflammasome activation, suggesting that targeting CXCL2 might be a potential strategy for DPN treatment.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte death is one of the major mechanisms contributing to the development of myocardial infarction (MI) and myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Due to the limited regenerative ability of cardiomyocytes, understanding the mechanisms of cardiomyocyte death is necessary. Pyroptosis, one of the regulated programmed cell death pathways, has recently been shown to play important roles in MI and MI/R injury. Pyroptosis is activated by damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) that are released from damaged myocardial cells and activate the formation of an apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC) interacting with NACHT, LRR, and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3), resulting in caspase-1 cleavage which promotes the activation of Gasdermin D (GSDMD). This pathway is known as the canonical pathway. GSDMD has also been shown to be activated in a non-canonical pathway during MI and MI/R injury via caspase-4/5/11. Suppression of GSDMD has been shown to provide cardioprotection against MI and MI/R injury. Although the effects of MI or MI/R injury on pyroptosis have previously been discussed, knowledge concerning the roles of GSDMD in these settings remains limited. In this review, the evidence from in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies focusing on cardiac GSDMD activation during MI and MI/R injury is comprehensively summarized and discussed. Implications from this review will help pave the way for a new therapeutic target in ischemic heart disease.

Abstract
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is a high-risk disease in the middle-aged and elderly population. The ischemic heart may be further damaged after reperfusion therapy with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and other methods, namely, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI), which further affects revascularization and hinders patient rehabilitation. Therefore, the investigation of new therapies against MIRI has drawn great global attention. Within the long history of the prevention and treatment of MIRI, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has increasingly been recognized by the scientific community for its multi-component and multi-target effects. These multi-target effects provide a conspicuous advantage to the anti-MIRI of TCM to overcome the shortcomings of single-component drugs, thereby pointing toward a novel avenue for the treatment of MIRI. However, very few reviews have summarized the currently available anti-MIRI of TCM. Therefore, a systematic data mining of TCM for protecting against MIRI will certainly accelerate the processes of drug discovery and help to identify safe candidates with synergistic formulations. The present review aims to describe TCM-based research in MIRI treatment through electronic retrieval of articles, patents, and ethnopharmacology documents. This review reported the progress of research on the active ingredients, efficacy, and underlying mechanism of anti-MIRI in TCM and TCM formulas, provided scientific support to the clinical use of TCM in the treatment of MIRI, and revealed the corresponding clinical significance and development prospects of TCM in treating MIRI.

Abstract
Programmed cell deaths are pathways involving cells playing an active role in their own destruction. Depending on the signaling system of the process, programmed cell death can be divided into two categories, pro-inflammatory and non-inflammatory. Pyroptosis is a pro-inflammatory form of programmed cell death. Upon cell death, a plethora of cytokines are released and trigger a cascade of responses from the neighboring cells. The pyroptosis process is a double-edged sword, could be both beneficial and detrimental in various inflammatory disorders and disease conditions. A physiological outcome of these responses is tissue damage, and sometimes death of the host. In this review, we focus on the inflammatory response triggered by pyroptosis, and resulting tissue damage in selected organs.

Abstract
To investigate effects of α-asarone and β-asarone on induced PC12 cell injury and related mechanisms. Aβ toxic injury cell model was induced by Aβ in PC12 cells. PC12 cells were divided into blank control group, model control group, α-asarone group (0.5, 1.0, β-asarone group (6.3, 12.5, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) group, and VIP antagonist control group. Cell survival rate was detected by CCK-8 kit; cell apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry. The levels of inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1, , tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, oxidation-related inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), nitric oxide (NO), apoptosis factors caspase-3 and p53 were detected by ELISA method. The expressions of C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) were detected by Western blotting. Compared with model control group, cell survival rates of group, β-asarone group and VIP group increased; the cell apoptosis rate decreased; levels of apoptosis-related factors caspase-3, p53, inflammatory factors IL-1, TNF-α decreased; IL-10 level increased; levels of oxidization-related factors iNOS and NO decreased; the expression of JNK and p38MAPK protein decreased (all <0.05). After VIP antagonist intervention, the survival rate of β-asarone group decreased; apoptosis rate increased; apoptosis related factors caspase-3, p53, inflammatory factors IL-1, TNF-α increased; IL-10 decreased; oxidation related factors iNOS and NO increased; the expression of JNK and p38MAPK protein increased (all <0.05); while there were no significant changes in these indicators of α-asarone group (all >0.05). α-asarone and β-asarone have protective effects on PC12 cell injury induced by Aβ. β-asarone may inhibit inflammatory factors and oxidation-related factors through promoting VIP secretion, regulating JNK/MAPK pathway, and reducing PC12 cell apoptosis; however, the effect of α-asarone may be not related to VIP secretion.

Abstract
Background This study assessed the effects and underlying molecular mechanisms of β-asarone on ischemic stroke model rats. Material/Methods Ischemic stroke was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in rats. Before and after modeling, cognitive function was evaluated via fear conditioning test and neurological deficit was determined via Longa and Bederson scores. Following treatment with β-asarone or nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) inhibitor for 20 consecutive days, the cerebral infarction was detected via TTC staining and Cresyl Violet staining in brain tissues. TUNEL staining and western blot analysis for apoptosis-related proteins were performed to assess the apoptosis of neurons. Nrf2-antioxidant response elements (ARE) pathway-related proteins were examined by RT-qPCR or western blot. Results The cognitive and neurological function was defective in MCAO rats. The infarction volumes and the apoptosis of cortical neurons were significantly increased in brain tissues of model rats, which were ameliorated after treatment with β-asarone. Meanwhile, the increase in pro-apoptotic proteins and decrease in anti-apoptotic proteins were found in brain tissues of model rats, which were markedly ameliorated by β-asarone treatment. However, Nrf2 inhibitor worsened the cerebral infarction and the apoptosis of neurons. Western blot results showed that β-asarone treatment activated the Nrf2-ARE pathway-related proteins in model rats, which was inhibited by Nrf2 inhibitor. Conclusions Our findings suggest that β-asarone treatment ameliorated the cerebral infarction in MCAO rats, which could be related to activation of the Nrf2-ARE pathway.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease in middle-aged and older adults. Abnormal proteins such as α-synuclein are essential factors in PD's pathogenesis. Autophagy is the main participant in the clearance of abnormal proteins. The overactive or low function of autophagy leads to autophagy stress. Not only is it difficult to clear abnormal proteins but also it can cause damage to neurons. In this article, the effects of natural products ingredients, such as salidroside, paeoniflorin, curcumin, resveratrol, corynoxine, and baicalein, on regulating autophagy and protecting neurons were discussed in detail to provide a reference for the research and development of drugs for the treatment of PD.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, and its main pathological substrate is represented by atherosclerosis. Inflammation is a major promoter of the atherosclerotic process and is involved in both the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis, as well as in the occurrence of fatal complications. Until the present moment, Colchicine Cardiovascular Outcomes Trial is the largest trial to demonstrate a major benefit of low-dose colchicine on major adverse cardiac events in patients with recent myocardial infarction (MI), but the mechanisms behind this relation are not completely known. The purpose of this review is to emphasize the possible pathways through which colchicine improves the clinical outcomes in the acute setting of acute coronary syndromes by referring to the results of the studies published in the past 5 years. Aside from its stated systemic anti-inflammatory effect, colchicine could be a valuable addition to the therapeutic approach of acute MI by reducing the infarct size, stabilizing the coronary plaque, as well as reducing platelet aggregation. Moreover, colchicine may improve endothelial function, reduce the transcoronary release of cytokines, and prevent a rise in inflammatory markers after percutaneous coronary intervention, thus diminishing the residual inflammatory risk.
