Mitochondrial Protein Akap1 Deletion Exacerbates Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Mice Exposed to Hyperoxia. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:762840.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) and its severe manifestation, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), are treated with high concentrations of supplementary oxygen. However, prolonged exposure to high oxygen concentrations stimulates the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which damages the mitochondria and accumulates misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The mitochondrial protein A-kinase anchoring protein 1 (Akap1) is critical for mitochondrial homeostasis. It is known that Akap1 deficiency results in heart damage, neuronal development impairment, and mitochondrial malfunction in preclinical studies. Our laboratory recently revealed that deleting Akap1 increases the severity of hyperoxia-induced ALI in mice. To assess the role of Akap1 deletion in ER stress in lung injury, wild-type and Akap1−/− mice were exposed to hyperoxia for 48 h. This study indicates that Akap1−/− mice exposed to hyperoxia undergo ER stress, which is associated with an increased expression of BiP, JNK phosphorylation, eIF2α phosphorylation, ER stress-induced cell death, and autophagy. This work demonstrates that deleting Akap1 results in increased ER stress in the lungs of mice and that hyperoxia exacerbates ER stress-related consequences.

Abstract
Development of nanomedicines for effective therapy of acute lung injury (ALI), a common critical respiratory failure syndrome, remains to be challenging. We report here a unique design of a functional nanoplatform based on generation 5 (G5) poly(amidoamine) dendrimer-entrapped gold nanoparticles (Au DENPs) to co-deliver dexamethasone (Dex) and a microRNA-155 inhibitor (miR-155i) for combination chemotherapy and gene therapy of ALI. In this study, we synthesized Au DENPs with 10 Dex moieties attached per G5 dendrimer and an Au core diameter of 2.1 nm and used them to compress miR-155i. The generated polyplexes own a positive zeta potential (16-26 mV) and a small hydrodynamic diameter (175-230 nm) and display desired cytocompatibility and efficient miR-155i delivery to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated alveolar macrophages, thus upregulating the suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 and IL-10 expression and downregulating the pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6). Likewise, as a synthetic glucocorticoid with a potent anti-inflammatory property, the attached Dex on the surface of Au DENPs could inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion by down-regulating cyclooxygenase-2 expression in the LPS-activated alveolar macrophages. The integration of Dex and miR-155i within one nanoformulation enables superior downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines for successful repair of damaged lung tissues in an ALI model, as demonstrated by histological examinations and pro-inflammatory cytokine downregulation in ALI lesion at the gene and protein levels. Such a combined chemotherapy and gene therapy strategy enabled by dendrimer nanotechnology may hold great promise to treat other types of inflammatory diseases.

Microtubule-dependent mechanism of anti-inflammatory effect of SOCS1 in endothelial dysfunction and lung injury. FASEB J 2021; 35:e21388.

Abstract
Suppressors of cytokine signaling (SOCS) provide negative regulation of inflammatory reaction. The role and precise cellular mechanisms of SOCS1 in control of endothelial dysfunction and barrier compromise associated with acute lung injury remain unexplored. Our results show that siRNA-mediated SOCS1 knockdown augmented lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pulmonary endothelial cell (EC) permeability and enhanced inflammatory response. Consistent with in vitro data, EC-specific SOCS1 knockout mice developed more severe lung vascular leak and accumulation of inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. SOCS1 overexpression exhibited protective effects against LPS-induced endothelial permeability and inflammation, which were dependent on microtubule (MT) integrity. Biochemical and image analysis of unstimulated EC showed SOCS1 association with the MT, while challenge with LPS or MT depolymerizing agent colchicine impaired this association. SOCS1 directly interacted with N2 domains of MT-associated proteins CLIP-170 and CLASP2. Furthermore, N-terminal region of SOCS1 was indispensable for these interactions and SOCS1-ΔN mutant lacking N-terminal 59 amino acids failed to rescue LPS-induced endothelial dysfunction. Depletion of endogenous CLIP-170 or CLASP2 abolished SOCS1 interaction with Toll-like receptor-4 and Janus kinase-2 leading to impairment of SOCS1 inhibitory effects on LPS-induced inflammation. Altogether, these findings suggest that endothelial barrier protective and anti-inflammatory effects of SOCS1 are critically dependent on its targeting to the MT.

Dexmedetomidine alleviates pulmonary edema through the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) via the PI3K/Akt/Nedd4-2 pathway in LPS-induced acute lung injury. Immunol Res 2021; 69:162-175.

Abstract
Dexmedetomidine (Dex), a highly selective α2-adrenergic receptor (α2AR) agonist, has an anti-inflammatory property and can alleviate pulmonary edema in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI), but the mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we attempted to investigate the effect of Dex on alveolar epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in the modulation of alveolar fluid clearance (AFC) and the underlying mechanism. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to induce acute lung injury (ALI) in rats and alveolar epithelial cell injury in A549 cells. In vivo, Dex markedly reduced pulmonary edema induced by LPS through promoting AFC, prevented LPS-induced downregulation of α-, β-, and γ-ENaC expression, attenuated inflammatory cell infiltration in lung tissue, reduced the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, and increased concentrations of IL-10 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). In A549 cells stimulated with LPS, Dex attenuated LPS-mediated cell injury and the downregulation of α-, β-, and γ-ENaC expression. However, all of these effects were blocked by the PI3K inhibitor LY294002, suggesting that the protective role of Dex is PI3K-dependent. Additionally, Dex increased the expression of phosphorylated Akt and reduced the expression of Nedd4-2, while LY294002 reversed the effect of Dex in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1, a PI3K agonists, promoted the expression of phosphorylated Akt and reduced the expression of Nedd4-2 in LPS-stimulated A549 cells, indicating that Dex worked through PI3K, and Akt and Nedd4-2 are downstream of PI3K. In conclusion, Dex alleviates pulmonary edema by suppressing inflammatory response in LPS-induced ALI, and the mechanism is partly related to the upregulation of ENaC expression via the PI3K/Akt/Nedd4-2 signaling pathway.

Down-regulation of miR-let-7e attenuates LPS-induced acute lung injury in mice via inhibiting pulmonary inflammation by targeting SCOS1/NF-κB pathway. Biosci Rep 2021; 41:227104.

Abstract
Excessive pulmonary inflammatory response is critical in the development of acute lung injury (ALI). Previously, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been recognized as an important regulator of inflammation in various diseases. However, the effects and mechanisms of miRNAs on inflammatory response in ALI remain unclear. Herein, we tried to screen miRNAs in the processes of ALI and elucidate the potential mechanism. Using a microarray assay, microRNA let-7e (let-7e) was chose as our target for its reported suppressive roles in several inflammatory diseases. Down-regulation of let-7e by antagomiR-let-7e injection attenuated LPS-induced acute lung injury. We also found that antagomiR-let-7e could obviously improve the survival rate in ALI mice. Moreover, antagomiR-let-7e treatment reduced the production of proinflammatory cytokines (i.e., TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of LPS-induced ALI mice. Luciferase reporter assays confirmed that suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1), a powerful attenuator of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway, was directly targeted and suppressed by let-7e in RAW264.7 cells. In addition, it was further observed that SOCS1 was down-regulated, and inversely correlated with let-7e expression levels in lung tissues of ALI mice. Finally, down-regulation of let-7e suppressed the activation of NF-κB pathway, as evidenced by the reduction of p-IκBα, and nuclear p-p65 expressions in ALI mice. Collectively, our findings indicate that let-7e antagomir protects mice against LPS-induced lung injury via repressing the pulmonary inflammation though regulation of SOCS1/NF-κB pathway, and let-7e may act as a potential therapeutic target for ALI.

Abstract
Smoke inhalation causes acute lung injury (ALI), a severe clinical disease with high mortality. Accumulating evidence indicates that microRNA-155 (miR-155) and suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS-1), as mediators of inflammatory response, are involved in the pathogenesis of ALI. In this paper, we explored the proinflammatory mechanism of miR-155 in smoke-inhalation-induced ALI. Our data revealed that smoke inhalation induces miR-155 expression, and miR-155 knockout (KO) significantly ameliorates smoke-inhalation-induced lung injury in mice. Neutrophil infiltration and myeloperoxidase (MPO), macrophage inflammatory protein 2 (MIP-2) and keratinocyte chemoattractant (KC) expressions were decreased in miR-155–/– mice after smoke inhalation as well. Real-time RT-PCR and immunoblotting results showed that SOCS-1 level was remarkably increased in miR-155–/– mice after smoke exposure. Furthermore, the experiments performed in isolated miR-155 KO pulmonary neutrophils demonstrated that the lack of SOCS-1 enhanced inflammatory cytokines (MIP-2 and KC) secretion in response to smoke stimulation. In conclusion, smoke induces increased expression of miR-155, and miR-155 is involved in inflammatory response to smoke-inhalation-induced lung injury by inhibiting the expression of SOCS-1.

Abstract
The role of inflammation response has been well documented in the development of acute lung injury (ALI). However, little is known about the functions of miRNAs in the regulation of inflammation in ALI. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of miRNAs in the regulation of inflammation in ALI and to elucidate the biomolecular mechanisms responsible for these effects. The expression profiles of miRNAs in lung tissues from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI mice model were analyzed using a microarray. It was observed that microRNA-221-3p (miR-221) was significantly increased in lung tissues in ALI mice. The inhibition of miR-221 attenuated lung injury including decreased lung W/D weight ratio and lung permeability and survival rates of ALI mice, as well as apoptosis, whereas its agomir-mediated upregulation exacerbated the lung injury. Concomitantly, miR-221 inhibition significantly reduced LPS-induced pulmonary inflammation, while LPS-induced pulmonary inflammation was aggravated by miR-221 upregulation. Of note, suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS1), an effective suppressor of the NF-κB signaling pathway, was found to be a direct target of miR-221 in RAW264.7 cells. Overexpression of SOCS1 by pcDNA-SOCS1 plasmids markedly reversed the miR-221 inhibition-mediated inhibitory effects on inflammation and apoptosis in LPS-treated RAW264.7 cells. Finally, it was found that miR-221 inhibition suppressed LPS induced the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, as demonstrated by downregulation of phosphorylated-IκBα, p-p65 and upregulation of IκBα, whilst miR-221 overexpression had an opposite result in ALI mice. Our findings demonstrate that inhibition of miR-221 can alleviate LPS-induced inflammation via inactivation of SOCS1/NF-κB signaling pathway in ALI mice.

Abstract
Smoke inhalation leads to acute lung injury (ALI), a devastating clinical problem associated with high mortality rates. Suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1) is a negative regulator of proinflammatory cytokine signaling. We have found that adenoviral gene transfer of SOCS-1 ameliorates smoke inhalation-induced lung injury in C57BL/6 mice. We also found that the release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was increased post smoke exposure, while oxidized ATP, an inhibitor of purinergic P2X7 receptor, suppressed smoke-induced NALP3 inflammasome assembly, caspase-1 activation, and K+ efflux. Similar to oxidized ATP, high protein level of SOCS-1 dampened the formation of NALP3 inflammasome and the activation of caspase-1 and IL-1β induced by smoke exposure in mouse alveolar macrophages. In conclusion, SOCS-1 relieves smoke inhalation-induced pulmonary inflammation and injury by inhibiting NALP3 inflammasome formation.

Abstract
Smoke inhalation leads to acute lung injury (ALI), a devastating clinical problem associated with high mortality. Suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1) is a negative regulator of apoptosis and pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling, two major contributors to the pathogenesis of ALI. We have found that SOCS-1 protects lung epithelial cells from smoke-induced apoptosis through two mechanisms. One is that SOCS-1 enhances degradation of ASK-1 and diminishes cleavage of pro-caspase-3 to repress smoke-triggered apoptosis in lung epithelial cells. The other is that SOCS-1 represses smoke-triggered DISC formation through altering TRADD-caspase-8 interaction rather than TNFR-1-TRADD interaction or TNFR-1-TRAF-2 interaction. In conclusion, SOCS-1 relieves smoke inhalation-induced lung injury by repressing ASK-1 and DISC-mediated epithelium apoptosis.

Abstract
Acute lung injury leading to acute respiratory distress (ARDS) is a global health concern. ARDS patients have significant pulmonary inflammation leading to flooding of the pulmonary alveoli. This prevents normal gas exchange with consequent hypoxemia and causes mortality. A thin fluid layer in the alveoli is normal. The maintenance of this thin layer results from fluid movement out of the pulmonary capillaries into the alveolar interstitium driven by vascular hydrostatic pressure and then through alveolar tight junctions. This is then balanced by fluid reabsorption from the alveolar space mediated by transepithelial salt and water transport through alveolar cells. Reabsorption is a two-step process: first, sodium enters via sodium-permeable channels in the apical membranes of alveolar type 1 and 2 cells followed by active extrusion of sodium into the interstitium by the basolateral Na+, K+-ATPase. Anions follow the cationic charge gradient and water follows the salt-induced osmotic gradient. The proximate cause of alveolar flooding is the result of a failure to reabsorb sufficient salt and water or a failure of the tight junctions to prevent excessive movement of fluid from the interstitium to alveolar lumen. Cytokine- and chemokine-induced inflammation can have a particularly profound effect on lung sodium transport since they can alter both ion channel and barrier function. Cytokines and chemokines affect alveolar amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs), which play a crucial role in sodium transport and fluid reabsorption in the lung. This review discusses the regulation of ENaC via local and systemic cytokines during inflammatory disease and the effect on lung fluid balance.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is suggested to induce mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells that possibly exacerbates renal function in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Here we investigated whether suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1), an inhibitor of cytokine signaling, was involved in TNF-α-induced human renal tubular epithelial cells (HKCs) oxidative stress and apoptosis. TNF-α promoted the protein and mRNA expression of SOCS-1 in a time and dose dependent manner, along with increased cell apoptosis and activation of apoptosis signal regulating kinase-1(ASK1) in HKCs. Furthermore, overexpression of SOCS-1 in HKCs reduced TNF-α-mediated oxidative stress and apoptosis. Meanwhile, We also found that overexpression of SOCS-1 could regulate the activity of JAK/STAT signaling pathway. In addition, a specific JAK2 inhibitor, AG490, that both attenuated TNF-α-induced oxidative stress, also reduced apoptosis. Taken together, overexpression of SOCS-1 prevented TNF-α-mediated cell oxidative stress and apoptosis may be via suppression of JAK/STAT signaling pathway activation in HKCs.
