Abstract
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a worldwide health issue because of their prevalence, negative impacts on human welfare, and economic costs. Protease enzymes play important roles in viral and NCD diseases. Slowing disease progression by inhibiting proteases using small-molecule inhibitors or endogenous inhibitory peptides appears to be crucial. Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI), an inflammatory serine protease inhibitor, maintains protease/antiprotease balance. SLPI is produced by host defense effector cells during inflammation to prevent proteolytic enzyme-induced tissue damage. The etiology of noncommunicable illnesses is linked to SLPI's immunomodulatory and tissue regeneration roles. Disease phases are associated with SLPI levels and activity changes in regional tissue and circulation. SLPI has been extensively evaluated in inflammation, but rarely in NCDs. Unfortunately, the thorough evaluation of SLPI's pathophysiological functions in NCDs in multiple research models has not been published elsewhere. In this review, data from PubMed from 2014 to 2023 was collected, analysed, and categorized into in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies. According to the review, serine protease inhibitor (SLPI) activity control is linked to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and other illnesses. Overexpression of the SLPI gene and protein may be a viable diagnostic and therapeutic target for non-communicable diseases (NCDs). SLPI is also cytoprotective, making it a unique treatment. These findings suggest that future research should focus on these pathways using advanced methods, reliable biomarkers, and therapy approaches to assess susceptibility and illness progression. Implications from this review will help pave the way for a new therapeutic target and diagnosis marker for non-communicable diseases.

Abstract
Osseointegration is vital to success in orthopedic and dental reconstructions with implanted materials. The bone matrix or cells-particularly osteoblasts-are required to achieve functional contact on the implant surface. Osteoblast induction is therefore essential for osteogenesis to occur. Enhancement of osteoblast adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation, particularly by implant surface modifications, have been found challenging to develop. Secretory Leukocyte Protease Inhibitor (SLPI), a cation ionic protein with anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial activities, showed activation in osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. However, the effects of coating recombinant human (rh) SLPI on a titanium alloy surface on human osteoblast adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation has never been investigated. In this study, titanium alloys (Ti-6Al-4V) were coated with rhSLPI, while human osteoblast adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, actin cytoskeletal organization, and gene expressions involved in cell adhesion and differentiation were investigated. The results indicate that coating titanium with 10-100 µg/ml rhSLPI enhanced the physical properties of the Ti surface and enhanced human osteoblast (hFOB 1.19) cell adhesion, activated actin dynamic, enhanced adhesive forces, upregulated integrins α1, α2, and α5, enhanced cell proliferation, mineralization, alkaline phosphatase activity, and upregulated ALP, OCN, and Runx2. This is the first study to demonstrate that coating SLPI on titanium surfaces enhances osseointegration and could be a candidate molecule for surface modification in medical implants.

Abstract
Inadequate vascularization is a significant barrier to clinical application of large-volume tissue engineered grafts. In contrast to in vivo vascularization, in vitro prevascularization shortens the time required for host vessels to grow into the graft core and minimizes necrosis in the core region of the graft. However, the challenge of prevascularization is to construct hierarchical perfusable vascular networks, increase graft volume, and form a vascular tip that can anastomose with host vessels. Understanding advances in in vitro prevascularization techniques and new insights into angiogenesis could overcome these obstacles. In the present review, we discuss new perspectives on angiogenesis, the differences between in vivo and in vitro tissue vascularization, the four elements of prevascularized constructs, recent advances in perfusion-based in vitro prevascularized tissue fabrication, and prospects for large-volume prevascularized tissue engineering.

Abstract
Sepsis is a crucial public health problem with a high mortality rate caused by a dysregulated host immune response to infection. Vascular endothelial cell injury is an important hallmark of sepsis, which leads to multiple organ failure and death. Early biomarkers to diagnose sepsis may provide early intervention and reduce risk of death. Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are host nuclear or cytoplasmic molecules released from cells following tissue damage. We postulated that DAMPs could potentially be a novel sepsis biomarker. We used an in vitro model to determine suitable protein-DAMPs biomarkers for early sepsis diagnosis. Low and high lipopolysaccharide (LPS) doses were used to stimulate the human umbilical vein endothelial cell line EA.hy926 for 24, 48, and 72 h. Results showed that cell viability was reduced in both dose-dependent and time-dependent manners. Cell injury was corroborated by a significant increase in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity within 24 h in cell-conditioned medium. Secreted protein-DAMPs in the supernatant, collected at different time points within 24 h, were characterized using shotgun proteomics LC-MS/MS analysis. Results showed that there were 2233 proteins. Among these, 181 proteins from the LPS-stimulated EA.hy926 at 1, 12, and 24 h were significantly different from those of the control. Twelve proteins were up-regulated at all three time points. Furthermore, a potential interaction analysis of predominant DAMPs-related proteins using STITCH 5.0 revealed the following associations with pathways: response to stress; bacterium; and LPS (GO:0080134; 0009617; 0032496). Markedly, alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein (AHSG or fetuin-A) and lactotransferrin (LTF) potentially presented since the first hour of LPS stimulation, and were highly up-regulated at 24 h. Taken together, we reported proteomic profiling of vascular endothelial cell-specific DAMPs in response to early an in vitro LPS stimulation, suggesting that these early damage-response protein candidates could be novel early biomarkers associated with sepsis.

Gelatin-coated silicon oxide nanoparticles encapsulated recombinant human secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (rhSLPI) reduced cardiac cell death against an in vitro simulated ischaemia/reperfusion injury. Heliyon 2023; 9:e20150. [PMID: 37809945 PMCID: PMC10559932 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e20150] [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: 03/20/2023] [Revised: 05/02/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) is the main global cause of death. Previous studies indicated that recombinant human secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (rhSLPI) exhibits a cardioprotective effect against myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, SLPI has a short half-life in vivo due to digestion by protease enzymes in circulation. The application of nanoparticle encapsulation could be beneficial for SLPI delivery. Several types of nanoparticles have been developed to encapsulate SLPI and applied in some disease models. However, silica nanoparticles for rhSLPI delivery, particularly on myocardial I/R injury, have never been studied. In this study, we aimed to fabricate gelatin-covered silica nanoparticles (GSNPs) to encapsulate rhSLPI and cardioprotective effect of GSNP-SLPI against an in vitro simulated ischaemia/reperfusion (sI/R). Silica dioxide nanoparticles (SNPs) were fabricated followed by incubation with 0.33 mg/mL of rhSLPI. Then, SNPs containing rhSLPI were coated with gelatin (GSNPs). The GSNPs and rhSLPI-GSNPs were characterized by particle size, zeta potential, and morphology scanning electron microscope (SEM). The concentration of rhSLPI in rhSLPI-GSNPs and drug release was determined by ELISA. Then, cytotoxicity and cardioprotective effect were determined by incubation of GSNPs or rhSLPI-GSNPs with rat cardiac myoblast cell line (H9c2) subjected to simulated ischaemia/reperfusion (sI/R). The results showed the particle size of SNPs, GSNPs, and rhSLPI-GSNPs was 273, 300, and 301 nm, with a zeta potential of -57.21, -22.40, and -24.50 mV, respectively. One milligram of rhSLPI-GSNPs contains 235 ng of rhSLPI. The rhSLPI-GSNPs showed no cytotoxicity on cardiac cells. Treatment with 10 μg/ml of rhSLPI-GSNPs could significantly reduce sI/R induced cardiac cell injury and death. In conclusion, this is the first study to show successful of fabricating novel rhSLPI-encapsulating gelatin-covered silica nanoparticles (rhSLPI-GSNPs) and the cardioprotective effects of rhSLPI-GSNPs against cardiac cell injury and death from myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. An effective therapeutic strategy is to rescue cardiomyocytes from death. Apoptosis is a key reason of cardiomyocyte death that can be prevented. In this study, we investigated the role of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) in initiating apoptosis by binding to death receptor 5 (DR5), and this procession is inhibited by soluble DR5 (sDR5) in rats after AMI. First, we found that the level of TRAIL in serum was down-regulated in AMI patients. Then, TRAIL and DR5 expression was analysed in the myocardium of rats after AMI, and their expression was up-regulated. sDR5 treatment reduced the myocardial infarct size and the levels of CK-MB and cTn-I in serum. The expression of caspase 3 and PARP is decreased, but the anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2 was increased in sDR5 treatment rats after AMI. DR5 expression was also analysed after sDR5 treatment and it was down-regulated, and a low level of DR5 expression seemed to be beneficial for the myocardium. Overall, our findings indicated that sDR5 decreases myocardial damage by inhibiting apoptosis in rat after AMI. We expect to observe the potential therapeutic effects of sDR5 on AMI in the future.

Abstract
Background: Ischemic heart disease is a leading cause of death in patients with cardiovascular disease. Natural products containing high antioxidant activity have been used as an alternative therapy to improve the living conditions of patients. In this study, we examine the protective effect of tamarind seed (TS) on myocardial hypoxic injury. Methods: The hypoxia model was mimicked by mineral oil overlayed on H9c2 cardiomyoblasts for 4 h. TS extract was pretreated and administered during the hypoxic condition. Radical scavenging activity of TS extract was measured and exhibited very potent antioxidant activities on 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-Azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) assays. Results: TS extract at a concentration of 10 µg/ml significantly reversed the effect of hypoxia-induced cell death and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. We also observed hypoxia-induced over-expression of both inflammatory cytokine mRNA and activation of cellular apoptosis. Pretreatment of TS extract significantly reduced hypoxia-induced HIF-1a and pro-inflammatory cytokine production, IL-1b and IL-6. The Western blot analysis for apoptotic regulatory molecules, caspase 3, caspase 8 and Bax proteins, also showed hypoxia injury reversal by TS extract treatment. Conclusions: The results suggest that the anti-ischemic effect of TS extract protects against hypoxia-induced injury and has potential to be an effective alternative therapy for ischemic heart disease and oxidative-damage related disease.

Abstract
Inhibition of proteases shows therapeutic potential. Our previous studies demonstrated the cardioprotection by the Secretory Leukocyte Protease Inhibitor (SLPI) against myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, it is unclear whether the cardioprotective effect of SLPI seen in our previous works is due to the inhibition of protease enzymes. Several studies demonstrate that the anti-protease independent activity of SLPI could provide therapeutic benefits. Here, we show for the first time that recombinant protein of anti-protease deficient mutant SLPI (L72K, M73G, L74G) (mt-SLPI) could significantly reduce cell death and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production against an in vitro simulated I/R injury. Furthermore, post-ischaemic treatment of mt-SLPI is found to significantly reduce infarct size and cardiac biomarkers lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) activity, improve cardiac functions, attenuate I/R induced-p38 MAPK phosphorylation, and reduce apoptotic regulatory protein levels, including Bax, cleaved-Caspase-3 and total Capase-8, in rats subjected to an in vivo I/R injury. Additionally, the beneficial effect of mt-SLPI was not significantly different from the wildtype (wt-SLPI). In summary, SLPI could provide cardioprotection without anti-protease activity, which could be more clinically beneficial in terms of providing cardioprotection without interfering with basal serine protease activity.

Abstract
In myocarditis caused by various etiologies, activated immune cells and the immune regulatory factors released by them play important roles. But in this complex microenvironment, non-immune cells and non-cardiomyocytes in the heart, such as cardiomyocytes (CMs), cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) and endothelial cells (ECs), play the role of “sentinel”, amplify inflammation, and interact with the cardiomyocytes. The complex interactions between them are rarely paid attention to. This review will re-examine the functions of CFs and ECs in the pathological conditions of myocarditis and their direct and indirect interactions with CMs, in order to have a more comprehensive understanding of the pathogenesis of myocarditis and better guide the drug development and clinical treatment of myocarditis.

CU06-1004 enhances vascular integrity and improves cardiac remodeling by suppressing edema and inflammation in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Exp Mol Med 2022; 54:23-34.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury accelerates the cardiomyocytes (CMs) death by oxidative stress, and thereby deteriorates cardiac function. There has been a paradigm shift in the therapeutic perspective more towards the prevention or amelioration of damage caused by reperfusion. Cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) are more vulnerable to reperfusion injury and play the crucial roles more than CMs in the pathological process of early I/R injury. In this study, we investigate that CU06-1004, as a vascular leakage blocker, can improve cardiac function by inhibiting CMEC's hyperpermeability and subsequently reducing the neutrophil's plugging and infiltration in infarcted hearts. CU06-1004 was delivered intravenously 5 min before reperfusion and the rats were randomly divided into three groups: (1) vehicle, (2) low-CU06-1004 (1 mg/kg, twice at 24 h intervals), and (3) high-CU06-1004 (5 mg/kg, once before reperfusion). CU06-1004 treatment reduced necrotic size and cardiac edema by enhancing vascular integrity, as demonstrated by the presence of intact junction proteins on CMECs and surrounding pericytes in early I/R injury. It also decreased the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) on CMECs, resulting in reduced infiltration of neutrophils and macrophages. Echocardiography showed that the CU06-1004 treatment significantly improved cardiac function compared with the vehicle group. Interestingly, single high-dose treatment with CU06-1004 provided a greater functional improvement than repetitive low-dose treatment until 8 weeks post I/R. These findings demonstrate that CU06-1004 enhances vascular integrity and improves cardiac function by preventing lethal myocardial I/R injury. It can provide a promising therapeutic option, as potential adjunctive therapy to current reperfusion strategies.

Abstract
Background Patients with ELANE variants and severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) commonly develop oral complications. Whether they are caused only by low neutrophil count or the combination of neutropenia and aberrant dental cells is unknown. Methods Genetic variant was identified with exome sequencing. Dental pulp cells isolated from the SCN patient with an ELANE mutation were investigated for gene expression, enzyme activity, proliferation, colony formation, wound healing, apoptosis, ROS, attachment, spreading and response to lipopolysaccharide. Results ELANE cells had diminished expression of ELANE and SLPI and reduced neutrophil elastase activity. Moreover, ELANE cells exhibited impaired proliferation, colony forming, migration, attachment and spreading; and significantly increased ROS formation and apoptosis, corresponding with increased Cyclin D1 and MMP2 levels. The intrinsic levels of TGF‐β1 and TNF‐α were significantly increased; however, IL‐6, IL‐8 and NF‐kB1 were significantly decreased in ELANE cells compared with those in controls. After exposure to lipopolysaccharide, ELANE cells grew larger, progressed to more advanced cell spreading stages and showed significantly increased SLPI, TNF‐α and NF‐kB1 and tremendously increased IL‐6 and IL‐8 expression, compared with controls. Conclusion This study, for the first time, suggests that in addition to neutropenia, the aberrant levels and functions of ELANE, SLPI and their downstream molecules in pulp cells play an important role in oral complications in SCN patients. In addition, pulp cells with diminished neutrophil elastase and SLPI are highly responsive to inflammation.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have the potency to function as modulators in the process of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. This investigation was performed to decipher the mechanism of human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs)-derived EVs in myocardial I/R injury with the involvement of microRNA-129 (miR-129). HUVECs-secreted EVs were collected and identified. An I/R mouse model was developed, and cardiomyocytes were used for vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion model establishment. Differentially expressed miRNAs in myocardial tissues after EV treatment were assessed using microarray analysis. The target relationship between miR-129 and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) was identified using a dual-luciferase assay. Gain- and loss-function studies regarding miR-129 were implemented to figure out its roles in myocardial I/R injury. Meanwhile, the activation of the nuclear factor-kappa-binding (NF-κB) p65 signaling and NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome was evaluated. EVs diminished the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and the secretion of inflammatory factors, and all these trends were reversed by miR-129 reduction. miR-129 bound to the 3'-untranslated region of TLR4 directly. The NF-κB p65 signaling and NLRP3 inflammasome were abnormally activated after I/R injury, whose impairment after EVs was partially restored by miR-129 downregulation. This study illustrated that EVs could carry miR-129 to mitigate myocardial I/R injury via downregulating TLR4 and disrupting the NF-κB signaling and NLRP3 inflammasome.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Among factors contributing to I/R injury, proteolytic enzymes could also cause cellular injury, expand the injured area and induce inflammation, which then lead to cardiac dysfunction. Therefore, protease inhibition seems to provide therapeutic benefits. Previous studies showed the cardioprotective effect of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) against myocardial I/R injury. However, the effect of a post-ischemic treatment with SLPI in an in vivo I/R model has never been investigated. In the present study, recombinant human (rh) SLPI (rhSLPI) was systemically injected during coronary artery occlusion or at the onset of reperfusion. The results show that post-ischemic treatment with rhSLPI could significantly reduce infarct size, Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) and Creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) activity, inflammatory cytokines and protein carbonyl levels, as well as improving cardiac function. The cardioprotective effect of rhSLPI is associated with the attenuation of p38 MAPK phosphorylation, Bax, caspase-3 and -8 protein levels and enhancement of pro-survival kinase Akt and ERK1/2 phosphorylation. In summary, this is the first report showing the cardioprotective effects against myocardial I/R injury of post-ischemic treatments with rhSLPI in vivo. Thus, these results suggest that SLPI could be used as a novel therapeutic strategy to reduce myocardial I/R injury.

Abstract
Background High glucose (HG)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduction impairs angiogenesis that is one pivotal factor of wound healing process. Angiogenesis impairment induces delayed wound healing, whereby it eventually leads to amputation in cases of poorly controlled diabetes with diabetic ulceration. Porcine placenta extract (PPE) is a natural waste product that comprises plenty of bioactive agents including growth factors and antioxidants. It was reported as an effective compound that prevents ROS generation. The goal of this study was to investigate the in vitro effect of PPE on HG-induced ROS-mediated angiogenesis impairment. Methods Primary endothelial cells (HUVECs) and endothelial cell line (EA.hy926) were treated with HG in the presence of PPE. The endothelial cells (ECs) viability, intracellular ROS generation, migration, and angiogenesis were determined by MTT assay, DCFDA reagent, wound healing assay, and tube formation assay, respectively. Additionally, the molecular mechanism of PPE on HG-induced angiogenesis impairment was investigated by Western blot. The angiogenic growth factor secretion was also investigated by the sandwich ELISA technique. Results HG in the presence of PPE significantly decreased intracellular ROS overproduction compared to HG alone. HG in the presence of PPE significantly increased ECs viability, migration, and angiogenesis compared to HG alone by showing recovery of PI3K/Akt/ERK1/2 activation. HG in the presence of PPE also decreased ECs apoptosis compared to HG alone by decreasing p53/Bax/cleaved caspase 9/cleaved caspase 3 levels and increasing Bcl 2 level. Conclusion PPE attenuated HG-induced intracellular ROS overproduction that improved ECs viability, proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis by showing recovery of PI3K/Akt/ERK1/2 activation and inhibition of ECs apoptosis. This study suggests PPE ameliorated HG-induced ROS-mediated angiogenesis impairment, whereby it potentially provides an alternative treatment for diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Purpose: Citrate has a positive effect on improving the pathophysiological changes of cardiomyocytes such as cardiac failure and auricular fibrillation. However, the underlying mechanism remains still unclear.Methods: Rat cardiomyocytes were used to establish hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) cell model. Citrate was conduct to pretreat with cardiomyocytes, and microRNA-142-3p (miR-142-3p) knockdown and overexpression were used to determine the underlying mechanism of their functions in cardiomyocytes. Cell viability and apoptosis were respectively detected by CCK-8 and flow cytometry. Protein and mRNA levels were determined by Western blot and qRT-PCR. Luciferase reporter assay and Targetscan were performed to study the regulation of miR-142-3p and Rac1.Results: The level of miR-142-3p was down-regulated in H/R model, but up-regulated in cardiomyocytes following citrate treatment. Citrates attenuated H/R injury induced miR-142-3p level and cell viability, and also inhibited H/R injury induced apoptosis, LDH, MDA and autophagy. Cell viability was improved, and autophagy was suppressed by miR-142-3p mimic, while inhibitor had opposite results. Compared with H/R + miR-142-3p inhibitor group, cell viability was higher, and apoptosis and autophagy were lower in Cit + H/R + miR-142-3p inhibitor group. Furthermore, Rac1 was target gene of miR-142-3p, and decreased by citrate, in comparison with H/R + miR-142-3p inhibitor group.Conclusion: Taken together, our findings indicated that citrate ameliorates H/R injury-induced cardiomyocytes autophagy by regulating miR-142-3p/Rac1 aix.

Abstract
As reperfusion therapies have become more widely used in acute myocardial infarction patients, ischemia-induced myocardial damage has been markedly reduced, but reperfusion-induced cardiac injury has become increasingly evident. The features of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury include microvascular perfusion defects, platelet activation and sequential cardiomyocyte death due to additional ischemic events at the reperfusion stage. Microvascular obstruction, defined as a no-reflow phenomenon, determines the infarct zone, myocardial function and peri-operative mortality. Cardiac microvascular endothelial cell injury may occur much earlier and with much greater severity than cardiomyocyte injury. Endothelial cells contain fewer mitochondria than other cardiac cells, and several of the pathological alterations during cardiac microvascular I/R injury involve mitochondria, such as increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) levels and disturbed mitochondrial dynamics. Although mROS are necessary physiological second messengers, high mROS levels induce oxidative stress, endothelial senescence and apoptosis. Mitochondrial dynamics, including fission, fusion and mitophagy, determine the shape, distribution, size and function of mitochondria. These adaptive responses modify extracellular signals and orchestrate intracellular processes such as cell proliferation, migration, metabolism, angiogenesis, permeability transition, adhesive molecule expression, endothelial barrier function and anticoagulation. In this review, we discuss the involvement of mROS and mitochondrial morphofunction in cardiac microvascular I/R injury.
