Abstract
The role of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification (O-GlcNAcylation) in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been increasingly highlighted in recent studies. It's been reported that signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) O-GlcNAcylation can affect the activity of the Janus kinase2 (JAK2)/STAT3 pathway.Our recent study showed that resveratrol repairsIBDin mice.On this basis,the present study aimed to explore whether the mechanism of IBD repair by resveratrol is associated with STAT3 O-GlcNAcylation. Pretreatment of colitis mice and intestinal epithelial cells with an O-GlcNAcylation promoter (Thiamet G, or Glucosamine) and an O-GlcNAcylation inhibitor (OSMI-1) showed that increased O-GlcNAcylation promoted colitis in mice.The pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL) -6, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were increased, while the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 was decreased. Moreover, the downstream target proteins of JAK2/STAT3, cyclooxygenase-2 and nitric oxide synthase 2 were up-regulated, Resveratrol treatment mitigated the inflammation by decreasing JAK2/STAT3 activity, as well as STAT3 O-GlcNAcylation. Finally, the correlation between STAT3 glycosylation and phosphorylation in intestinal epithelial cells under the effect of resveratrol was investigated by Immunofluorescence co-localization and immunoprecipitation.The results showed that resveratrol inhibited STAT3 O-GlcNAcylation, thereby inhibiting its phosphorylation, reducing JAK2/STAT3 pathway activity, and alleviating IBD.
