LPA3 agonist-producing Bacillus velezensis ADS024 is efficacious in multiple neuroinflammatory disease models. Brain Behav Immun 2024; 121:384-402. [PMID: 39147172 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbi.2024.08.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Revised: 08/08/2024] [Accepted: 08/10/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Neuroinflammation is a common component of neurological disorders. In the gut-brain-immune axis, bacteria and their metabolites are now thought to play a role in the modulation of the nervous and immune systems which may impact neuroinflammation. In this respect, commensal bacteria of humans have recently been shown to produce metabolites that mimic endogenous G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) ligands. To date, it has not been established whether plant commensal bacteria, which may be ingested by animals including humans, can impact the gut-brain-immune axis via GPCR agonism. We screened an isopropanol (IPA) extract of the plant commensal Bacillus velezensis ADS024, a non-engrafting live biotherapeutic product (LBP) with anti-inflammatory properties isolated from human feces, against a panel of 168 GPCRs and identified strong agonism of the lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor LPA3. The ADS024 IPA extracted material (ADS024-IPA) did not agonize LPA2, and only very weakly agonized LPA1. The agonism of LPA3 was inhibited by the reversible LPA1/3 antagonist Ki16425. ADS024-IPA signaled downstream of LPA3 through G-protein-induced calcium release, recruitment of β-arrestin, and recruitment of the neurodegeneration-associated proteins 14-3-3γ, ε and ζ but did not recruit the β isoform. Since LPA3 agonism was previously indirectly implicated in the reduction of pathology in models of Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple sclerosis (MS) by use of the nonselective antagonist Ki16425, and since we identified an LPA3-specific agonist within ADS024, we sought to examine whether LPA3 might indeed be part of a broad underlying mechanism to control neuroinflammation. We tested oral treatment of ADS024 in multiple models of neuroinflammatory diseases using three models of PD, two models of MS, and a model each of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Huntington's disease (HD), and chemo-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). ADS024 treatment improved model-specific functional effects including improvements in motor movement, breathing and swallowing, and allodynia suggesting that ADS024 treatment impacted a universal underlying neuroinflammatory mechanism regardless of the initiating cause of disease. We used the MOG-EAE mouse model to examine early events after disease initiation and found that ADS024 attenuated the increase in circulating lymphocytes and changes in neutrophil subtypes, and ADS024 attenuated the early loss of cell-surface LPA3 receptor expression on circulating white blood cells. ADS024 efficacy was partially inhibited by Ki16425 in vivo suggesting LPA3 may be part of its mechanism. Altogether, these data suggest that ADS024 and its LPA3 agonism activity should be investigated further as a possible treatment for diseases with a neuroinflammatory component.

Li N, Li Y. Lysophosphatidic Acid (LPA) and Its Receptors in Mood Regulation: A Systematic Review of the Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:7440. [PMID: 39000547 PMCID: PMC11242315 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25137440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Mood disorders affect over 300 million individuals worldwide, often characterized by their chronic and refractory nature, posing significant threats to patient life. There has been a notable increase in mood disorders among American adolescents and young adults, with a rising number of suicide attempts and fatalities, highlighting a growing association between mood disorders and suicidal outcomes. Dysregulation within the neuroimmune-endocrine system is now recognized as one of the fundamental biological mechanisms underlying mood and mood disorders. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a novel mediator of mood behavior, induces anxiety-like and depression-like phenotypes through its receptors LPA1 and LPA5, regulating synaptic neurotransmission and plasticity. Consequently, LPA has garnered substantial interest in the study of mood regulation. This study aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of lysophosphatidic acid and its receptors, along with LPA receptor ligands, in mood regulation and to explore their potential therapeutic efficacy in treating mood disorders. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using the PubMed and Web of Science databases, identifying 208 articles through keyword searches up to June 2024. After excluding duplicates, irrelevant publications, and those restricted by open access limitations, 21 scientific papers were included in this review. The findings indicate that LPA/LPA receptor modulation could be beneficial in treating mood disorders, suggesting that pharmacological agents or gintonin, an extract from ginseng, may serve as effective therapeutic strategies. This study opens new avenues for future research into how lysophosphatidic acid and its receptors, as well as lysophosphatidic acid receptor ligands, influence emotional behavior in animals and humans.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a highly malignant tumor with a poor prognosis and a growing incidence. LncRNAs and microRNAs control the occurrence and development process of osteosarcoma through ceRNA patterns. The LPAR3 gene is important in cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis and disease development. However, the regulatory mechanism of the ceRNA network through which LPAR3 participates in osteosarcoma has not been clarified. Herein, our study demonstrated that the AP003352.1/miR-141-3p axis drives LPAR3 expression to induce the malignant progression of osteosarcoma. First, the expression of LPAR3 is regulated by the changes in AP003352.1 and miR-141-3p. Similar to the ceRNA of miR-141-3p, AP003352.1 regulates the expression of LPAR3 through this mechanism. In addition, the regulation of AP003352.1 in malignant osteosarcoma progression depends to a certain degree on miR-141-3p. Importantly, the AP003352.1/miR-141-3p/LPAR3 axis can better serve as a multi-gene diagnostic marker for osteosarcoma. In conclusion, our research reveals a new ceRNA regulatory network, which provides a novel potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Depression and obesity are both common disorders currently affecting public health, frequently occurring simultaneously within individuals, and the relationship between these disorders is bidirectional. The association between obesity and depression is highly co-morbid and tends to significantly exacerbate metabolic and related depressive symptoms. However, the neural mechanism under the mutual control of obesity and depression is largely inscrutable. This review focuses particularly on alterations in systems that may mechanistically explain the in vivo homeostatic regulation of the obesity and depression link, such as immune-inflammatory activation, gut microbiota, neuroplasticity, HPA axis dysregulation as well as neuroendocrine regulators of energy metabolism including adipocytokines and lipokines. In addition, the review summarizes potential and future treatments for obesity and depression and raises several questions that need to be answered in future research. This review will provide a comprehensive description and localization of the biological connection between obesity and depression to better understand the co-morbidity of obesity and depression.

Transcriptomics Changes in the Peritoneum of Mice with Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Peritonitis. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222313008.

Abstract
Peritonitis caused by LPS is a severe clinical challenge, which causes organ damage and death. However, the mechanism of LPS-induced peritonitis has not been fully revealed yet. Here, we investigated the transcriptome profile of the peritoneal tissue of LPS-induced peritonitis in mice. A model of LPS-induced peritonitis in mice was established (LPS 10 mg/kg, i.p.), and the influence of TAK 242 (TLR4 inhibitor) on the level of inflammatory cytokines in mouse peritoneal lavage fluid was investigated by using an ELISA test. Next, the peritoneal tissues of the three groups of mice (Control, LPS, and LPS+TAK 242) (n = 6) were isolated and subjected to RNA-seq, followed by a series of bioinformatics analyses, including differentially expressed genes (DEGs), enrichment pathway, protein-protein interaction, and transcription factor pathway. Then, qPCR verified-hub genes that may interact with TAK 242 were obtained. Subsequently, the three-dimensional structure of hub proteins was obtained by using homology modeling and molecular dynamics optimization (300 ns). Finally, the virtual docking between TAK 242 and hub proteins was analyzed. Our results showed that TAK 242 significantly inhibited the production of inflammatory cytokines in the peritoneal lavage fluid of mice with peritonitis, including IL-6, IFN-γ, IL-1β, NO, and TNF-α. Compared with the Control group, LPS treatment induced 4201 DEGs (2442 down-regulated DEGs and 1759 up-regulated DEGs). Compared with the LPS group, 30 DEGs were affected by TAK 242 (8 down-regulated DEGs and 22 up-regulated DEGs). A total of 10 TAK 242-triggered hub genes were obtained, and the possible docking modes between TAK 242 and hub proteins were acquired. Overall, our data demonstrated that a large number of DEGs were affected in LPS-triggered peritonitis mice. Moreover, the TLR4 inhibitor TAK 242 is capable of suppressing the inflammatory response of LPS-induced peritonitis. Our work provides clues for understanding the pathogenesis of LPS-induced peritonitis in mice.

Abstract
One class of molecules that are now coming to be recognized as essential for our understanding of the nervous system are the lysophospholipids. One of the major signaling lysophospholipids is lysophosphatidic acid, also known as LPA. LPA activates a variety of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) leading to a multitude of physiological responses. In this review, I describe our current understanding of the role of LPA and LPA receptor signaling in the development and function of the nervous system, especially the central nervous system (CNS). In addition, I highlight how aberrant LPA receptor signaling may underlie neuropathological conditions, with important clinical application.

Waterborne Exposure of Paclobutrazol at Environmental Relevant Concentration Induce Locomotion Hyperactivity in Larvae and Anxiolytic Exploratory Behavior in Adult Zebrafish. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17134632. [PMID: 32605096 PMCID: PMC7369995 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17134632] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2020] [Revised: 06/21/2020] [Accepted: 06/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
The available arable land is unable to fulfill the food production need of rapidly the exponentially growing human population in the world. Pesticides are one of those different measures taken to meet this demand. As a plant growth regulator to block gibberellin, paclobutrazol (PBZ) is used excessively throughout the world to promote early fruit setting, and to increase seed setting which might be harmful because PBZ is a very stable compound; therefore, it can bioaccumulate into the food chain of an ecosystem. In the present study, we discovered unexpected effects of PBZ on zebrafish larvae and adult behaviors by challenging them with low dose exposure. Zebrafish larvae aged 4 days post-fertilization (dpf) were exposed for 24 h at 10 µg/L (0.01 ppm) and 100 µg/L (0.1 ppm) of PBZ, respectively, and adults were incubated at 100 µg/L (0.1 ppm) and 1000 µg/L (1 ppm) concentrations of PBZ, respectively, for fourteen days. After incubation, the locomotor activity, burst, and rotation movement for the larvae; and multiple behavioral tests such as novel tank exploration, mirror biting, shoaling, predator avoidance, and social interaction for adult zebrafish were evaluated. Brain tissues of the adult fish were dissected and subjected to biochemical analyses of the antioxidant response, oxidative stress, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and neurotransmitter levels. Zebrafish larvae exposed to PBZ exhibited locomotion hyperactivity with a high burst movement and swimming pattern. In adult zebrafish, PBZ resulted in anxiolytic exploratory behavior, while no significant results were found in social interaction, shoal making, and predator avoidance behaviors. Interestingly, high dose PBZ exposure significantly compromised the innate aggressive behavior of the adult fish. Biochemical assays for oxidative stress, antioxidant response, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) showed significant reductions in their relative contents. In conclusion, for the first time, our behavior assays revealed that chronic PBZ exposure induced behavioral alterations in both larvae and the adult zebrafish. Because PBZ is a widely-used plant growth regulator, we suggest that it is necessary to conduct more thorough tests for its biosafety and bioaccumulation.
