Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are a group of inborn errors of the metabolism caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal enzymes required to break down molecules called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). These GAGs accumulate over time in various tissues and disrupt multiple biological systems, including catabolism of other substances, autophagy, and mitochondrial function. These pathological changes ultimately increase oxidative stress and activate innate immunity and inflammation. We have described the pathophysiology of MPS and activated inflammation in this paper, starting with accumulating the primary storage materials, GAGs. At the initial stage of GAG accumulation, affected tissues/cells are reversibly affected but progress irreversibly to: (1) disruption of substrate degradation with pathogenic changes in lysosomal function, (2) cellular dysfunction, secondary/tertiary accumulation (toxins such as GM2 or GM3 ganglioside, etc.), and inflammatory process, and (3) progressive tissue/organ damage and cell death (e.g., skeletal dysplasia, CNS impairment, etc.). For current and future treatment, several potential treatments for MPS that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier and bone have been proposed and/or are in clinical trials, including targeting peptides and molecular Trojan horses such as monoclonal antibodies attached to enzymes via receptor-mediated transport. Gene therapy trials with AAV, ex vivo LV, and Sleeping Beauty transposon system for MPS are proposed and/or underway as innovative therapeutic options. In addition, possible immunomodulatory reagents that can suppress MPS symptoms have been summarized in this review.

Increased expression of angiopoietin-like protein 4 regulates matrix metalloproteinase-13 expression in Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharides-stimulated gingival fibroblasts and ligature-induced experimental periodontitis. J Periodontal Res 2023; 58:43-52. [PMID: 36409042 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2022] [Revised: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is produced in chronic or acute inflammation. Although ANGPTL4 increases in the periodontal ligament fibroblasts during hypoxia, the involvement and role of ANGPTL4 in periodontitis have not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE In this study, we investigated whether ligature-induced experimental periodontitis and/or Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharides (Pg-LPS) would upregulate ANGPTL4 expression and whether ANGPTL4 would somehow involve in the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) which are key molecules in the process of periodontal tissue destruction. METHODS Experimental periodontitis was induced in 6-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats by placing a nylon suture around the neck of the maxillary second molar. Two weeks after the induction of periodontitis, the periodontal tissue was excised and analyzed by histological/immunohistochemical staining and gene expression analyses. Human gingival fibroblasts (hGFs) were stimulated with Pg-LPS. The gene expression of ANGPTLs and receptors involved in ANGPTL4 recognition were observed. We also confirmed the changes in gene expression of MMPs upon stimulation with human ANGPTL4. Furthermore, we downregulated ANGPTL4 expression by short interfering RNA in hGFs and investigated the effect of Pg-LPS on MMP production. RESULTS Induction of periodontitis significantly increased the expression of ANGPTL4 in the gingiva. Pg-LPS significantly increased the gene and protein expression of ANGPTL4 in hGFs but not the gene expression of other ANGPTLs or ANGPTL receptors. Recombinant human ANGPTL4 significantly increased MMP13 gene expression in hGFs. We also confirmed that MMP13 expression was increased in the gingiva during experimental periodontitis. Pg-LPS induced MMP13 gene expression in hGFs. These results suggest the pivotal role of ANGPTL4 in periodontitis. CONCLUSION Periodontitis increases ANGPTL4 expression in the gingiva, further suggesting that increased ANGPTL4 may be a factor involved in enhancing MMP13 expression.

Abstract
In mammals, the phenomenon of blastocyst hatching is an essential prerequisite for successful implantation. Blastocyst hatching is regulated by various molecules. Of them, cytokines, expressed by preimplantation embryos, are thought to be functionally important in blastocyst development and hatching, but their mechanistic roles are not clearly understood. Here, we examined the involvement of two cytokines, namely, interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and its natural antagonist, IL-1ra, in blastocyst hatching in the golden hamster. Blastocysts expressed both cytokines and their receptor, IL-1rt1. Supplementation of IL-1β to cultured eight-cell embryos improved blastocyst hatching (84.1% ± 4.2% vs. 66.6% ± 6.8%; treated vs. control). This improvement was diminished by IL-1ra treatment (23.6% ± 12.9% vs. 76.4% ± 12.9%; treated vs. control). Interestingly, IL-1β-treated embryos showed increased messenger RNA expression of zonalytic proteases, that is, cathepsin-L and -B by 1.9 ± 0.5- and 3.5 ± 0.1-folds, respectively. This was accompanied by their increased enzyme activities; cathepsin-L by 2.8 ± 0.7 fold and -B by 2.3 ± 0.7-fold. Strikingly, proteases and IL-1β were intensely colocalized to trophectodermal projections of hatching blastocysts. This is the first report to show the involvement of embryonic IL-1β in regulating hatching-associated proteases required for blastocyst hatching.

Abstract
Our earlier studies proposed a radically new idea suggesting interdependency between TNF-α/TNFR1 and IL-1β/IL-1R pathways in modulation of Staphylococcus aureus-induced CXCL8/CXCR1 axis. However, the effects of inhibition of cytokine receptor mobilization at intracellular level and surface TNFR1 and IL-1R shedding on S. aureus-induced CXCR1 expression have not been studied so far in peritoneal macrophages. This study aimed to investigate the role of inhibition of receptor mobilization from the intracellular pool (using brefeldin A) and surface receptor shedding (using TAPI-1) on CXCR1 expression during dual receptor (TNFR1 plus IL-1R) neutralization in peritoneal macrophages isolated from wild-type Swiss Albino mice. Release of superoxide anion, nitric oxide, and hydrogen peroxide was measured and cytokine production was done by ELISA. Expression of surface receptors (TNFR1, IL-1R, and CXCR1) and inflammatory mediators was studied by Western blot. It was observed that S. aureus-infected macrophages showed elevated ROS production, secretion of TNF-α, IL-1β, and CXCL8, along with increased expression of surface receptors (TNFR1, IL-1R, and CXCR1), and inflammatory markers (iNOS and COX-2) compared with control or treated groups (p < 0.05). However, prior treatment of macrophages with BFA or TAPI-1 in the presence of anti-TNFR1 antibody and IRAP during S. aureus infection showed significant reduction of all these parameters (p < 0.05). We can conclude that targeting of TNFR1 and IL-1R (with major focus on surface expression study) either through blockage of intracellular receptor trafficking pathway or via surface receptor shedding diminishes TNFR1/IL-1R interaction and consequently downregulates CXCR1 expression along with inflammatory signalling pathways during bacterial infections.

Abstract
Angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) maintains tissue homeostasis by inducing inflammation and angiogenesis. It is produced in infiltrating immune cells or resident cells, such as adipocytes, vascular endothelial cells, and tumor cells. We hypothesized that ANGPTL2 might play an important role as a unique mediator in both systemic and periodontal disease. We demonstrated an increased ANGPTL2 concentration in gingival crevicular fluid from chronic periodontitis patients. Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment strongly induced ANGPTL2 mRNA and protein levels in Ca9-22 human gingival epithelial cells. Recombinant human ANGPTL2 increased interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) mRNA and protein levels in Ca9-22 cells. Small-interfering (si)RNA-mediated ANGPTL2 knockdown in Ca9-22 cells reduced IL-1β, IL-8 and TNF-α mRNA and protein levels compared with control siRNA (p<0.01) in P. gingivalis LPS-stimulated Ca9-22 cells. Antibodies against integrin α5β1, an ANGPTL receptor, blocked induction of these inflammatory cytokines in P. gingivalis LPS-treated Ca9-22 cells, suggesting that secreted ANGPTL induces inflammatory cytokines in gingival epithelial cells via an autocrine loop. The classic sequential cascade of P. gingivalis LPS → inflammatory cytokine induction is well established. However, in the current study, we reveal a novel cascade comprising sequential P. gingivalis LPS → ANGPTL2 → integrin α5β1 → inflammatory cytokine induction, which might be responsible for inducing potent periodontal disorganization activity in gingival epithelial cells. Via this pathway, ANGPTL2 functions in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and contributes to prolonging chronic inflammation in patients with systemic disease.

The Therapeutic Potential of Anti-Inflammatory Exerkines in the Treatment of Atherosclerosis. Int J Mol Sci 2017; 18:ijms18061260.

Abstract
Although many cardiovascular (CVD) medications, such as antithrombotics, statins, and antihypertensives, have been identified to treat atherosclerosis, at most, many of these therapeutic agents only delay its progression. A growing body of evidence suggests physical exercise could be implemented as a non-pharmacologic treatment due to its pro-metabolic, multisystemic, and anti-inflammatory benefits. Specifically, it has been discovered that certain anti-inflammatory peptides, metabolites, and RNA species (collectively termed “exerkines”) are released in response to exercise that could facilitate these benefits and could serve as potential therapeutic targets for atherosclerosis. However, much of the relationship between exercise and these exerkines remains unanswered, and there are several challenges in the discovery and validation of these exerkines. This review primarily highlights major anti-inflammatory exerkines that could serve as potential therapeutic targets for atherosclerosis. To provide some context and comparison for the therapeutic potential of exerkines, the anti-inflammatory, multisystemic benefits of exercise, the basic mechanisms of atherosclerosis, and the limited efficacies of current anti-inflammatory therapeutics for atherosclerosis are briefly summarized. Finally, key challenges and future directions for exploiting these exerkines in the treatment of atherosclerosis are discussed.
