Abstract
Resveratrol is a natural polyphenolic product in red wine and peanuts and has many pharmacological activities in humans. Our previous studies showed that resveratrol has good antiviral activity against the pseudorabies virus (PRV). However, little is known about the antiviral mechanism of resveratrol against PRV. In this study, we found that resveratrol inhibited the nuclear localization of IE180 protein, which is an important step for activating early/late genes transcription. Interestingly, the results show that resveratrol inhibited the activity of IE180 protein by dual-luciferase assay. Furthermore, molecular docking analysis shows that resveratrol could bind to the Thr601, Ser603, and Pro606 of IE180 protein. Point mutation assay confirmed that resveratrol lost its inhibition activity against the mutant IE180 protein. The results demonstrate that resveratrol exerts its antiviral activity against PRV by targeting the Thr601/Ser603/Pro606 sites of IE180 protein and inhibiting the transcriptional activation activity of IE180 protein. This study provides a novel insight into the antiviral mechanism of resveratrol against herpes viruses.

Peptidoglycan Switches Off the TLR2-Mediated Sperm Recognition and Triggers Sperm Localization in the Bovine Endometrium. Front Immunol 2021; 11:619408. [PMID: 33643300 PMCID: PMC7905083 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2020.619408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2020] [Accepted: 12/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
In mammals, the uterine mucosal immune system simultaneously recognizes and reacts to most bacteria as well as allogenic sperm mainly through the Toll-like receptors (TLR)2/4 signaling pathway. Here, we characterized the impact of pathogen-derived TLR2/4 ligands (peptidoglycan (PGN)/lipopolysaccharide (LPS)) on the immune crosstalk of sperm with the bovine endometrial epithelium. The real-time PCR analysis showed that the presence of low levels of PGN, but not LPS, blocked the sperm-induced inflammatory responses in bovine endometrial epithelial cells (BEECs) in vitro. Immunoblotting analysis revealed that PGN prevented the sperm-induced phosphorylation of JNK in BEECs. Activation or blockade of the TLR2 system in the endometrial epithelium verified that TLR2 signaling acts as a commonly-shared pathway for PGN and sperm recognition. The impairment of endometrial sperm recognition, induced by PGN, subsequently inhibited sperm phagocytosis by polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs). Moreover, using an ex vivo endometrial explant that more closely resembles those in vivo conditions, showed that sperm provoked a mild and reversible endometrial tissue injury and triggered PMN recruitment into uterine glands, while PGN inhibited these events. Of note, PGN markedly increased the sperm attachment to uterine glands, and relatively so in the surface epithelium. However, addition of the anti-CD44 antibody into a PGN-sperm-explant co-culture completely blocked sperm attachment into glands and surface epithelia, indicating that the CD44 adhesion molecule is involved in the PGN-triggered sperm attachment to the endometrial epithelium. Together, these findings demonstrate that, the presence of PGN residues disrupts sperm immune recognition and prevents the physiological inflammation induced by sperm in the endometrial epithelium via the MyD88-dependent pathway of TLR2 signaling, possibly leading to impairment of uterine clearance and subsequent embryo receptivity.
