PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 130:155715. [PMID: 38788399 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155715] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is an end-stage change in many interstitial lung diseases, whereas no proven effective anti-pulmonary fibrotic treatments. Forsythoside A (FA) derived from Forsythia suspensa (Thunb.) Vahl, has been found to possess lung-protective effect. However, studies on its anti-pulmonary fibrosis effect are limited and its mechanism of action remains unknown. PURPOSE This study aimed to explore the underlying mechanism of FA on PF. METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice were randomized into normal (CON), model (BLM), pirfenidone (PFD), low- and high-dose FA (FA-L, FA-H, respectively). Except for the CON group, which was injected with the same dose of saline, the model of PF was established by intratracheal instillation of BLM, during which the survival rate and body weight changes of the mice were measured. The lung histopathology was evaluated by Hematoxylin-eosin, Sirius red, and Masson staining. Transcriptome analysis was performed to screen for the differential genes associated with the role of FA in PF. Differential genes in normal and pulmonary fibrosis patients with the GSE2052 dataset were analyzed in the GEO database. The levels of CTGF, α-SMA, MMP-8 in lung and TNF-α in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were detected by ELISA. The levels of HYP in lungs were detected by digestion. The mRNA and protein levels of MMP-7, E-cadherin, CD31, α-SMA, TGF-β1, IL-6, β-catenin, ZO-1, PTPRB, E-cadherin, and vimentin in lungs were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The expression of CD31, α-SMA, TGF-β1 and ZO-1 were detected by immunofluorescence. TGF-β1-stimulated HFL1 cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used in an attempt to explore the possible role of protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type B (PTPRB) involved in FA-induced improvement of PF. RESULTS The results showed that FA could improve the survival rate and body weight of PF mice. FA could alleviate the symptoms of alveolar wall thickening, inflammatory cell infiltration, blue collagen fiber deposition, collagen fiber type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ in mice with PF. In addition, FA could reduce the levels of HYP, CTGF, α-SMA, TGF-β1, TNF-α, β-catenin and MMP8, and regulate the expression levels of CD31, ZO-1, PTPRB and E-cadherin in lung of mice with PF, inhibiting endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and fibroblasts proliferation. In the GSE2052 dataset, the expression level of PTPRB is reduced in lung tissue from PF patients, and results from transcriptome sequencing indicate that PTPRB expression is also reduced in PF mice. In addition, the effect of FA on TGF-β1-induced HFL1 or HUVECs cells could be attenuated by the inhibitor of PTPRB, suggesting that the effect of FA on PF is related to PTPRB. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that FA could ameliorate PF by inhibiting lung fibroblast proliferation and EndMT, and that PTPRB might be a target of FA to ameliorate PF, which provided evidence to support FA as a candidate phytochemical for PF.

Inflammation 2024:10.1007/s10753-024-02006-5. [PMID: 38498270 DOI: 10.1007/s10753-024-02006-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/13/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024]
Abstract
The apoptosis-prone property of alveolar epithelial cells plays a crucial role in pulmonary fibrosis(PF), but the role of pyroptosis in it is still unclear. Toll-like receptor 9(TLR9) has been reported to play a vital role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. However, the effect of TLR9 on alveolar epithelial cells in PF has not been fully elucidated. Gene expression microarray related to Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(IPF) was obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO) database. In the mouse model of bleomycin-induced PF, adeno-associated virus(AAV6) was used to interfere with TLR9 to construct TLR9 knockdown mice to study the role of TLR9 in PF, and the specific mechanism was studied by intratracheal instillation of NLR family pyrin domain containing 3(NLRP3) activator. In vitro experiments were performed using A549 cells. Bleomycin-induced pyroptosis in the lung tissue of PF mice increased, and TLR9 protein levels also increased, especially in alveolar epithelial cells. The levels of fibrosis and pyroptosis in lung tissue of TLR9 knockdown mice were improved. We found that TLR9 can bind to the NLRP3, thereby increasing the activation of the NLRP3/caspase-1 inflammasome pathway. When we use the NLRP3 activator, the levels of fibrosis and pyroptosis in lung tissue of TLR9 knockout mice can be counteracted. Pyroptosis of alveolar epithelial cells plays a vital role in PF, and TLR9 can promote NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis of alveolar epithelial cells to aggravate the progression of PF and may become a feasible target for the prevention and treatment of PF.

[PMID: 38437058 PMCID: PMC10914241 DOI: 10.1097/hc9.0000000000000396] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dachshund homolog 1 (DACH1) is widely acknowledged for its involvement in regulating diverse cell fates, but its precise regulatory mechanism in ferroptosis remains elusive. In this study, we investigated whether DACH1 modulates ferroptosis through affecting P53/solute carrier family 25 member 37 (SLC25A37) signaling in hepatic fibrogenesis. METHODS CRISPR-Cas9 system was used to knockout DACH1 in HSC to determine the effect of DACH1 on ferroptosis. Immunoprecipitation, pulldown, and mouse model of hepatic fibrogenesis were used to analyze the potential molecular mechanism of ferroptosis regulation by DACH1. RESULTS We found that ferroptosis inducers increased the protein expression of DACH1 by suppressing the ubiquitin-proteasome signaling. DACH1 knockout can resist ferroptosis, whereas DACH1 knockin can enhance it. Interestingly, the upregulation of DACH1 resulted in the mitochondrial translocation of p53 by inducing phosphorylation at serine 392. The mutation of serine 392 can prevent the combination of DACH1 and p53, the mitochondrial translocation of p53, and DACH1-mediated ferroptosis. Moreover, SLC25A37 was identified as a candidate target for mitochondrial p53. The binding of p53 to SLC25A37 can enhance the iron uptake capacity of SLC25A37, which may cause an overload of iron in the mitochondria and hyperactive mitochondrial electron transport chain. Knockdown of SLC25A37 can impair p53-mediated mitochondrial iron overload and ferroptosis. Furthermore, treatment with erastin can induce HSC ferroptosis and relieve fibrotic lesion damage in the mouse model of hepatic fibrogenesis. HSC-specific knockdown of DACH1, p53, and SLC25A37 can abolish the induction of HSC ferroptosis and reversal of hepatic fibrogenesis by erastin treatment. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that the DACH1/P53/SLC25A37 signaling pathway is a promising target for fibrotic disorders and reveals new regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis.

Role of DCLK1/Hippo pathway in type II alveolar epithelial cells differentiation in acute respiratory distress syndrome. Mol Med 2023; 29:159. [PMID: 37996782 PMCID: PMC10668445 DOI: 10.1186/s10020-023-00760-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Delay in type II alveolar epithelial cell (AECII) regeneration has been linked to higher mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, the interaction between Doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK1) and the Hippo signaling pathway in ARDS-associated AECII differentiation remains unclear. Therefore, the objective of this study was to understand the role of the DCLK1/Hippo pathway in mediating AECII differentiation in ARDS. MATERIALS AND METHODS AECII MLE-12 cells were exposed to 0, 0.1, or 1 μg/mL of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 6 and 12 h. In the mouse model, C57BL/6JNarl mice were intratracheally (i.t.) injected with 0 (control) or 5 mg/kg LPS and were euthanized for lung collection on days 3 and 7. RESULTS We found that LPS induced AECII markers of differentiation by reducing surfactant protein C (SPC) and p53 while increasing T1α (podoplanin) and E-cadherin at 12 h. Concurrently, nuclear YAP dynamic regulation and increased TAZ levels were observed in LPS-exposed AECII within 12 h. Inhibition of YAP consistently decreased cell levels of SPC, claudin 4 (CLDN-4), galectin 3 (LGALS-3), and p53 while increasing transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) at 6 h. Furthermore, DCLK1 expression was reduced in isolated human AECII of ARDS, consistent with the results in LPS-exposed AECII at 6 h and mouse SPC-positive (SPC+) cells after 3-day LPS exposure. We observed that downregulated DCLK1 increased p-YAP/YAP, while DCLK1 overexpression slightly reduced p-YAP/YAP, indicating an association between DCLK1 and Hippo-YAP pathway. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that DCLK1-mediated Hippo signaling components of YAP/TAZ regulated markers of AECII-to-AECI differentiation in an LPS-induced ARDS model.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic progressive lung disease with reduced quality of life and earlier mortality, but its pathogenesis and key genes are still unclear. In this investigation, bioinformatics was used to deeply analyze the pathogenesis of IPF and related key genes, so as to investigate the potential molecular pathogenesis of IPF and provide guidance for clinical treatment. Next-generation sequencing dataset GSE213001 was obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between IPF and normal control group. The DEGs between IPF and normal control group were screened with the DESeq2 package of R language. The Gene Ontology (GO) and REACTOME pathway enrichment analyses of the DEGs were performed. Using the g:Profiler, the function and pathway enrichment analyses of DEGs were performed. Then, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed via the Integrated Interactions Database (IID) database. Cytoscape with Network Analyzer was used to identify the hub genes. miRNet and NetworkAnalyst databaseswereused to construct the targeted microRNAs (miRNAs), transcription factors (TFs), and small drug molecules. Finally, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to validate the hub genes. A total of 958 DEGs were screened out in this study, including 479 up regulated genes and 479 down regulated genes. Most of the DEGs were significantly enriched in response to stimulus, GPCR ligand binding, microtubule-based process, and defective GALNT3 causes HFTC. In combination with the results of the PPI network, miRNA-hub gene regulatory network and TF-hub gene regulatory network, hub genes including LRRK2, BMI1, EBP, MNDA, KBTBD7, KRT15, OTX1, TEKT4, SPAG8, and EFHC2 were selected. Cyclothiazide and rotigotinethe are predicted small drug molecules for IPF treatment. Our findings will contribute to identification of potential biomarkers and novel strategies for the treatment of IPF, and provide a novel strategy for clinical therapy.

[PMID: 37766305 PMCID: PMC10534306 DOI: 10.3390/v15091899] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Revised: 09/02/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Foamy viruses are members of the Retroviridae family's Spumaretrovirinae subfamily. They induce cell vacuolation and exhibit a foamy pathogenic impact after infecting cells. DACH1 (dachshund family transcription factor 1) is a crucial cytokine linked to tumor development, and is associated with the growth of many different malignant tumor cells. Additionally, DACH1 suppresses pancreatic cell proliferation and is involved in diabetes insulin signaling. Prototype foamy viruses (PFVs) were used for the investigation of the regulatory mechanism of FVs on cellular DACH1 expression. The results show that DACH1 expression in PFV-infected cells was inconsistent at both the transcriptional and protein levels. At the transcriptional level, DACH1 was significantly activated by PFV transactivator Tas, and dual-luciferase reporter gene tests, EMSA, and ChIP assays found a Tas response element of 21 nucleotides in the DACH1 promoter. PFV and Tas did not boost the levels of DACH1 protein in a manner consistent with the high levels of DACH1 transcription expression. It was noted that Tas increased the expression of the Ser/Thr protein phosphatase PPM1E, causing PPM1E-mediated post-translational SUMOylation alterations of DACH1 to prompt DACH1 to degrade. The reason for DACH1 protein degradation is that DACH1 inhibits PFV replication. To sum up, these findings show that PFV upregulated the transcription of DACH1, while urging its protein into PPM1E-mediated SUMOylation, to eliminate the adverse effect of DACH1 overexpression of host cells on viral replication and promote virus survival.
