Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate the relationship between the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and bone mineral density (BMD), osteoporosis, and future fracture risk in elderly hypertensive patients. METHODS Elderly hypertensive patients (age ≥60 years) who attended our hospital between January 2021 and December 2023 and completed BMD screening were included in the study. Analyses were performed with multivariate logistic and linear regression. RESULTS The multiple linear regression indicated that SIRI levels were significantly negatively correlated with lumbar 1 BMD (β = -0.15, 95% CI: -0.24, -0.05), lumbar 2 BMD (β = -0.15, 95% CI: -0.24, -0.05), lumbar 3 BMD (β = -1.35, 95% CI: -0.23, -0.02), lumbar 4 BMD (β = -0.11, 95% CI: -0.30, -0.10), femur neck BMD (β = -0.11, 95% CI: -0.18, -0.05) and Ward's triangle BMD (β = -0.12, 95% CI: -0.20, -0.05) among elderly hypertensive patients, after fully adjusting for confounders. Furthermore, we observed that SIRI was positively associated with future fracture risk in elderly hypertensive patients. Specifically, SIRI was associated with an increased risk of major osteoporotic fractures (β = 0.33) and hip fractures (β = 0.25). The logistic regression analysis indicated that there is an association between the SIRI level and an increased risk of osteoporosis (OR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.37, 1.87), after fully adjusting for confounders. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate a potential association between SIRI and BMD, osteoporosis, and the risk of future fractures in elderly hypertensive patients. However, further studies are warranted to confirm these findings.

Modified Erchen decoction ameliorates cognitive dysfunction in vascular dementia rats via inhibiting JAK2/STAT3 and JNK/BAX signaling pathways. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 114:154797. [PMID: 37037084 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2023.154797] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular dementia (VaD) is one of the most common clinical syndromes of progressive neurocognitive dysfunction with uncertain mechanisms. Modified Erchen decoction (MECD), developed from "Erchen decoction (ECD)" recorded in "Taiping Huimin Heji Jufang", showed a good effect in the treatment of VaD. However, its therapeutic mechanism is still unclear. PURPOSE This study aimed to elucidate the multi-target mechanisms of MECD against VaD in vivo and in vitro. METHODS VaD model was established by two-vessel obstruction (2-VO) in Sprague-Dawley rats. Six groups, including the control, 2-VO operation, MECD treatment (2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 g kg-1 d-1), donepezil hydrochloride (positive control, 0.45 g kg-1 d-1) were designed in the whole experiment. After oral administration for 4 weeks, the effects of MECD were verified by behavioral experiments, histological observation, and biochemical index analysis. The chemical profiling of MECD was performed by UHPLC-Orbitrap Fusion-HRMS, and a "compound-target-pathway" multivariate network was constructed to validate and elucidate its pharmacological mechanisms. RESULTS Compared with 2-VO group, MECD treatment significantly alleviated anxiety and improved spatial memory in VaD rats according to the open field test (OFT) and Y-maze test. A significant increase in neuron number was observed from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained images in cornu ammonis 1 (CA1) of the hippocampal region after MECD treatment. On the one hand, MECD reduced the plasma levels of triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), malondialdehyde (MDA), and amyloid-beta 42 (Aβ42), and inhibited mRNA expression of interleukin-1 beta (Il-1β) and Il-6 in the hippocampus. On the other hand, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) were significantly increased after treatment with MECD. Moreover, MECD reduced the mRNA expression and protein expression of janus kinase 2 (JAK2), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and BCL2-associated X (BAX) in the brain of 2-VO rats. Furthermore, 71 compounds were identified from the extract of MECD. Among them, liquiritin and isochlorogenic acid C gave inhibiting effects on the mRNA expression of Jnk. In addition, liquiritin and hesperetin were conformed with the inhibition of Jak2 transcription level in vitro experiments. CONCLUSION MECD has demonstrated a significant amelioration effect on cognitive dysfunction in VaD rats via JAK2/STAT3 and JNK/BAX signaling pathways, which represents an innovative insight into the "activate blood and eliminate phlegm" theory.

Advances on the early cellular events occurring upon exposure of human macrophages to aluminum oxyhydroxide adjuvant. Sci Rep 2023; 13:3198.

Abstract
Aluminum compounds are the most widely used adjuvants in veterinary and human vaccines. Despite almost a century of use and substantial advances made in recent decades about their fate and biological effects, the exact mechanism of their action has been continuously debated, from the initial "depot-theory" to the direct immune system stimulation, and remains elusive. Here we investigated the early in vitro response of primary human PBMCs obtained from healthy individuals to aluminum oxyhydroxide (the most commonly used adjuvant) and a whole vaccine, in terms of internalization, conventional and non-conventional autophagy pathways, inflammation, ROS production, and mitochondrial metabolism. During the first four hours of contact, aluminum oxyhydroxide particles, with or without adsorbed vaccine antigen, (1) were quickly recognized and internalized by immune cells; (2) increased and balanced two cellular clearance mechanisms, i.e. canonical autophagy and LC3-associated phagocytosis; (3) induced an inflammatory response with TNF-α production as an early event; (4) and altered mitochondrial metabolism as assessed by both decreased maximal oxygen consumption and reduced mitochondrial reserve, thus potentially limiting further adaptation to other energetic requests. Further studies should consider a multisystemic approach of the cellular adjuvant mechanism involving interconnections between clearance mechanism, inflammatory response and mitochondrial respiration.

Inhibition of Complex I of the Respiratory Chain, but Not Complex III, Attenuates Degranulation and Cytokine Secretion in Human Skin Mast Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911591. [PMID: 36232895 PMCID: PMC9570238 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231911591] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2022] [Revised: 09/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
The mechanisms of mast cell (MC) degranulation and MC-driven skin symptoms are well-described. In contrast, data about the role of mitochondrial respiration for immune functions of human skin MCs are lacking. Oxygen consumption rate (OCR) in primary human skin MCs during IgE-mediated activation in the absence of glucose was examined using a metabolic flux analyzer. Effects of the inhibition of mitochondrial complex I (by rotenone A) and III (by myxothiazol) on degranulation and cytokine secretion (IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-13, TNF-α, and GM-CSF) were explored by the β-hexosaminidase release assay and multiplex ELISA. IgE-mediated activation rapidly increased the mitochondrial OCR and extracellular acidification; the contribution of non-mitochondrial oxygen consumption remained unchanged at lower levels. Both myxothiazol and rotenone A reduced OCR, the mitochondrial parameters, and extracellular acidification; however, myxothiazol did not affect degranulation and cytokine secretion. In contrast, degranulation and the secretion of IL-6, IL-13, TNF-α, and GM-CSF were reduced by rotenone A, whereas the secretion of IL-4 and IL-5 was not significantly affected. The inhibitors did not affect cell viability. Our results highlight the important role played by mitochondrial respiration in primary human skin MCs and allow for a conclusion on a hierarchy of their effector functions. Drugs targeting specific pathways in mitochondria may provide future options to control MC-driven skin symptoms.

Abstract
Macrophages are innate immune cells with high phenotypic plasticity. Depending on the microenvironmental cues they receive, they polarize on a spectrum with extremes being pro- or anti-inflammatory. As well as responses to microenvironmental cues, cellular metabolism is increasingly recognized as a key factor influencing macrophage function. While pro-inflammatory macrophages mostly use glycolysis to meet their energetic needs, anti-inflammatory macrophages heavily rely on mitochondrial respiration. The relationship between macrophage phenotype and macrophage metabolism is well established, however its precise directionality is still under question. Indeed, whether cellular metabolism per se influences macrophage phenotype or whether macrophage polarization dictates metabolic activity is an area of active research. In this short perspective article, we sought to shed light on this area. By modulating several metabolic pathways in bone marrow-derived macrophages, we show that disruption of cellular metabolism does per se influence cytokine secretion profile and expression of key inflammatory genes. Only some pathways seem to be involved in these processes, highlighting the need for specific metabolic functions in the regulation of macrophage phenotype. We thus demonstrate that the intact nature of cellular metabolism influences macrophage phenotype and function, addressing the directionality between these two aspects of macrophage biology.
