Kynurenic acid inhibits macrophage pyroptosis by suppressing ROS production via activation of the NRF2 pathway

چکیده
Macrophage pyroptosis and related inflammatory responses play an important role in periodontitis. Kynurenic acid (KA) is hypothesized to have anti‑inflammatory potential, but whether KA can inhibit macrophage the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used induce THP‑1‑derived macrophages. or ML385 pretreat macrophages, after which, cell viability, NOD‑like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome‑related expression, oxidative stress levels nuclear factor erythroid 2‑related 2 (NRF2) expression were measured. The results showed that improved LPS‑induced decrease viability lactate dehydrogenase release. prevented THP‑1 induced by LPS reducing of NLRP3, Gasdermin‑D, Caspase1, decreased factors. suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome activation inhibiting ROS overproduction increasing Heme Oxygenase 1 glutathione levels. Moreover, promoted NRF2 translocation from cytoplasm nucleus. In addition, anti‑pyroptotic antioxidant effects reversed inhibition NRF2. present study, it found significantly LPS. It further demonstrated mediated pathway.

Gambogic acid inhibits LPS-induced macrophage pro-inflammatory cytokine production mainly through suppression of the p38 pathway
Objective(s): In traditional Chinese medicine, gamboge can detoxify bodies, kill parasites, and act as a hemostatic agent. Recent studies have demonstrated that gambogic acid (GBA) suppressed inflammation in arthritis, and also presented antitumor effect. Thus, this study investigated the new biological properties of GBA on macrophages.Materials and Methods: RAW 264.7 cells were pretreated with...
متن کاملPterostilbene inhibits inflammation and ROS production in chondrocytes by activating Nrf2 pathway
Pterostilbene has been reported as a potential drug to inhibit oxidative stress and inflammation. However, the effect of pterostilbene on chondrocytes and osteoarthritis remains to be elucidated. We sought to investigate whether pterostilbene could protect chondrocytes from inflammation and ROS production through factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) activation. The pterostilbene toxicity ...

Objective(s):Cyclophosphamide (CP) toxicity on testis was hampered by squid ink polysaccharide (SIP) via restoration of antioxidant ability in our previous investigations. This study investigated roles of Nrf2/ARE signal pathway in testis of treated mice. Materials and Methods: Male Kunming mice were employed to undergo treatment with SIP and/or CP. Protein levels of Nrf2, keap-1, histone deac...
متن کاملFumarate Is Cardioprotective via Activation of the Nrf2 Antioxidant Pathway
The citric acid cycle (CAC) metabolite fumarate has been proposed to be cardioprotective; however, its mechanisms of action remain to be determined. To augment cardiac fumarate levels and to assess fumarate's cardioprotective properties, we generated fumarate hydratase (Fh1) cardiac knockout (KO) mice. These fumarate-replete hearts were robustly protected from ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R)....
متن کاملNitro-linoleic acid inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation via the Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway.
Nitroalkenes, the nitration products of unsaturated fatty acids formed via NO-dependent oxidative reactions, have been demonstrated to exert strong biological actions in endothelial cells and monocytes/macrophages; however, little is known about their effects on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). The present study examined the role of nitro-linoleic acid (LNO(2)) in the regulation of VSMC pr...
