Heliyon 2024; 10:e33849. [PMID: 39071679 PMCID: PMC11283160 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e33849] [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: 03/01/2024] [Revised: 06/27/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract (GI) is the largest immune organ whose function is controlled by a complex network of neurons from the enteric nervous system (ENS) as well as the sympathetic and parasympathetic system. Evolving evidence indicates that cross-communication between gut-innervating neurons and immune cells regulates many essential physiological functions including protection against mucosal infections. We previously demonstrated that following paraoxon treatment, 70 % of the mice were able to survive an oral infection with S. typhimurium, a virulent strain of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. The present study aims to investigate the effect that rivastigmine, a reversible AChE inhibitor used for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, has on the murine immune defenses of the intestinal mucosa. Our findings show that, similar to what is observed with paraoxon, administration of rivastigmine promoted the release of secretory granules from goblet and Paneth cells, resulting in increased mucin layer. Surprisingly, however, and unlike paraoxon, rivastigmine treatment did not affect overall mortality of infected mice. In order to investigate the mechanistic basis for the differential effects observed between paraoxon and rivastigmine, we used multi-color flowcytometric analysis to characterize the immune cell landscape in the intraepithelial (IE) and lamina propria (LP) compartments of intestinal mucosa. Our data indicate that treatment with paraoxon, but not rivastigmine, led to an increase of resident CD3+CD8+ T lymphocytes in the ileal mucosa (epithelium and lamina propria) and CD11b- CD11c+ dendritic cells in the LP. Our findings indicate the requirement for persistent cholinergic pathway engagement to effect a change in the cellular landscape of the mucosal tissue that is necessary for protection against lethal bacterial infections. Moreover, optimal protection requires a collaboration between innate and adaptive mucosal immune responses in the intestine.

Abstract
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that leads to physical and cognitive impairment in young adults. The increasing prevalence of MS underscores the critical need for innovative therapeutic approaches. Recent advances in neuroimmunology have highlighted the significant role of the gut microbiome in MS pathology, unveiling distinct alterations in patients' gut microbiota. Dysbiosis not only impacts gut-intrinsic processes but also influences the production of bacterial metabolites and hormones, which can regulate processes in remote tissues, such as the CNS. Central to this paradigm is the gut-brain axis, a bidirectional communication network linking the gastrointestinal tract to the brain and spinal cord. Via specific routes, bacterial metabolites and hormones can influence CNS-resident cells and processes both directly and indirectly. Exploiting this axis, novel therapeutic interventions, including pro- and prebiotic treatments, have emerged as promising avenues with the aim of mitigating the severity of MS. This review delves into the complex interplay between the gut microbiome and the brain in the context of MS, summarizing current knowledge on the key signals of cross-organ crosstalk, routes of communication, and potential therapeutic relevance of the gut microbiome. Moreover, this review places particular emphasis on elucidating the influence of these interactions on astrocyte functions within the CNS, offering insights into their role in MS pathophysiology and potential therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) of the complications after stroke has been shown to be involved in brain proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1β (IL-lβ) and IL-18. In the present study, we examined using acetic acid-induced embolic cerebral infarct (ECI) mice whether post-stroke inflammasome activation is involved in the development of PSCI. In behavioral tests, long-term learning and memory assessed using the passive avoidance test were impaired after ECI. On the other hand, the impairment of short-term learning and memory assessed using the Y-maze test was not observed. Furthermore, the phosphorylated α-amino-3hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor subunit glutamate receptor 1 (GluR1) at Ser 831 and Ser 845 protein was found to be significantly decreased in the dorsal hippocampus of ECI mice. In addition, the expression levels of ionized calcium-binding adapter protein 1 (Iba1), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase recruitment domain / target of methylation-induced silencing 1 (ASC/TMS1), Caspase-1, IL-1β, IL-18 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were significantly increased in the dorsal hippocampus of ECI mice. These results indicate that development of PSCI after embolic cerebral infarction is due to a decrease in AMPA receptor subunit GluR1 at Ser831 and Ser845 through the inflammasome activation pathway in the dorsal hippocampus.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Inflammation is a major player in many cardiovascular diseases including hypertension, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and heart failure. In many individuals, these conditions coexist and mutually exacerbate each other's progression. The pathophysiology of these diseases entails the active involvement of both innate and adaptive immune cells. Immune cells that possess the α7 subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor on their surface have the potential to be targeted through both pharmacological and electrical stimulation of the cholinergic system. The cholinergic system regulates the inflammatory response to various stressors in different organ systems by systematically suppressing spleen-derived monocytes and chemokines and locally improving immune cell function. Research on the cardiovascular system has demonstrated the potential for atheroma plaque stabilization and regression as favorable outcomes. Smaller infarct size and reduced fibrosis have been associated with improved cardiac function and a decrease in adverse cardiac remodeling. Furthermore, enhanced electrical stability of the myocardium can lead to a reduction in the incidence of ventricular tachyarrhythmia. In addition, improving mitochondrial dysfunction and decreasing oxidative stress can result in less myocardial tissue damage caused by reperfusion injury. Restoring baroreflex activity and reduction in renal damage can promote blood pressure regulation and help counteract hypertension. Thus, the present review highlights the potential of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor activation as a natural approach to alleviate the adverse consequences of inflammation in the cardiovascular system.

Abstract
Despite extensive research and a plethora of therapeutic options, hypertension continues to be a global burden. Understanding of the pathological roles of known and underexplored cellular and molecular pathways in the development and maintenance of hypertension is critical to advance the field. Immune system overactivation and inflammation in the kidneys are proposed alternative mechanisms of hypertension, and resistant hypertension. Consideration of the pathophysiology of hypertension in chronic inflammatory conditions such as autoimmune diseases, in which patients present with autoimmune-mediated kidney inflammation as well as hypertension, may reveal possible contributors and novel therapeutic targets. In this review, we 1) summarize current therapies used to control blood pressure and their known effects on inflammation; 2) provide evidence on the need to target renal inflammation, specifically, and especially when first-line and combinatory treatment efforts fail; and 3) discuss the efficacy of therapies used to treat autoimmune diseases with a hypertension/renal component. We aim to elucidate the potential of targeting renal inflammation in certain subsets of patients resistant to current therapies.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by hypertension that results from chronic renal inflammation and dysautonomia in the form of dampened vagal tone. In health, the vagus nerve regulates inflammatory processes through mechanisms like the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway; so in the case of SLE, reduced efferent vagus nerve activity may indirectly affect renal inflammation and therefore hypertension. In this study, we sought to investigate the impact of disrupting vagal neurotransmission on renal inflammation and hypertension in the setting of chronic inflammatory disease. Female SLE (NZBWF1) and control (NZW) mice were subjected to a right unilateral cervical vagotomy or sham surgery and 3 wk later were implanted with indwelling catheters to measure blood pressure. Indices of splenic and renal inflammation, as well as renal injury, were assessed. Unilateral vagotomy blunted SLE-induced increases in mean arterial pressure, albumin excretion rate, and glomerulosclerosis. This protection was associated with reduced splenic T cells and attenuated SLE-induced increases in renal proinflammatory mediators. In summary, these data indicate that unilateral vagotomy reduces renal inflammation and reduces blood pressure in SLE mice. The vagus nerves have myriad functions, and perhaps other neuroimmune interactions compensate for the ligation of one nerve.

Abstract
Neuropsychiatric disorders and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are major public health concerns proposed to be intimately connected. T2D is associated with increased risk of dementia, neuropsychiatric and mood disorders. Evidences of the involvement of insulin signaling on brain mechanisms related to depression indicate that insulin resistance, a hallmark of type 2 diabetes, could develop in the brains of depressive patients. In this article, we briefly review possible molecular mechanisms associating defective brain insulin signaling with reward system, neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) stress axis in depression. We further discuss the involvement of tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) promoting defective insulin signaling and depressive-like behavior in rodent models. Finally, due to the high resistant rate of anti-depressants, novel insights into the link between insulin resistance and depression may advance the development of alternative treatments for this disease.

Abstract
BackgroundSulfotransferases (SULTs) are phase II drug-metabolizing enzymes. SULTs also regulate the biological activities of biological signaling molecules, such as various hormones, bile acids, and monoamine neurotransmitters; therefore, they play critical roles in the endocrine and nervous systems. People are subject to various kinds of physical, chemical, toxicological, physiological, and psychological stresses at one time or another. The study of the effects produced by stress may lead to finding novel remedies for many disease conditions. The effect of repeated restraint stress on rat SULT expression has not been studied. MethodsThis study involves the effect of repeated restraint stress on SULT1A1 expressions. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=4) were subjected to repeated restraint stress 2 h/day for 7 days. Protein and RNA expression of SULT1A1 were analyzed by western blot and quantitative real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, respectively, in important tissues. ResultsWe observed that repeated restraint stress increased the expression of SULT1A1 in the liver, adrenal glands, cerebellum, hypothalamus, and cerebral cortex in male rats. Patterns of enhanced expression were observed at both mRNA and protein level, indicating that repeated restraint stress stimulates enzyme expression at the transcriptional level. ConclusionsChanges of SULT1A1 expression in important tissues caused by repeated restraint stress will have a significant effect on drug metabolism and xenobiotics detoxification. The significant changes in endocrine glands and brain sections may also cause disturbances in hormone homeostasis, therefore leading to disease conditions. This report provides clues for the understanding of the effect of stresses on health.
