目的 探究发酵小麦胚芽提取物主要活性成分2,6-二甲氧基-1,4-苯醌(DMQ)抑制NLRP3炎症小体活化并缓解小鼠感染性休克的作用机制。方法 细胞学水平:在BMDM细胞中,经脂多糖(LPS)预处理、DMQ干预后,利用尼日利亚菌素(Nigericin)、ATP、尿酸钠结晶(MSU)分别活化经典NLRP3炎症小体以及胞内转染LPS活化非经典NLRP3炎症小体。利用聚脱氧腺苷酸(Poly A:T)活化AIM2炎症小体。在THP-1细胞中,利用Nigericin活化经典NLRP3炎症小体,通过Western blotting和ELISA方法测定NLRP3炎症小体活化产物的表达水平。蛋白分子水平:利用免疫共沉淀探究DMQ阻断NLRP3炎症小体活化的具体机制。动物水平:将8周龄雄性C57BL/6J小鼠随机分为空白对照组、感染性休克LPS组、DMQ 20 mg/kg治疗组、DMQ 40 mg/kg治疗组,6只/组,待DMQ治疗组小鼠预注射相应浓度DMQ后,对照组小鼠注射无菌PBS,其余3组小鼠腹腔注射相同剂量LPS,利用ELISA检测DMQ干预对LPS诱导的小鼠感染性休克模型中血清和腹腔灌洗液中TNF-α和IL-1β分泌水平的影响。DMQ预处理后注射LPS观察记录小鼠36 h内的生存状态并绘制生存曲线。结果 DMQ可有效抑制小鼠BMDM细胞和人THP-1细胞中经典NLRP3炎症小体活化(P<0。05),在小鼠BMDM细胞中对非经典NLRP3炎症小体活化也起到有效抑制作用(P<0。05),DMQ对AIM2炎症小体活化无影响(P>0。05)。进一步实验结果揭示DMQ可阻断ASC和NLRP3之间的相互作用。DMQ治疗组可显著降低小鼠血清和腹腔液中IL-1β的分泌水平(P<0。05)并延长小鼠生存时间(P<0。05)。结论 发酵小麦胚芽提取物主要活性成分DMQ通过阻断ASC和NLRP3之间的相互作用有效抑制NLRP3炎症小体活化并缓解LPS诱导的小鼠感染性休克。
2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone alleviates septic shock in mice by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation
Objective To investigate the mechanism of 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone(DMQ),an active ingredients in fermented wheat germ extract,for inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation and alleviating septic shock in mice.Methods Cultured murine bone marrow-derived macrophages(BMDM)stimulated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)were treated with DMQ,followed by treatment with Nigericin,ATP,and MSU for activating the canonical NLRP3 inflammasome;the non-canonical NLRP3 inflammasome was activated by intracellular transfection of LPS,and AIM2 inflammasome was activated using Poly A:T.In human monocytic THP-1 cells,the effect of Nigericin on inflammasome activation products was examined using Western blotting and ELISA.Co-immunoprecipitation was performed to explore the mechanism of DMQ-induced blocking of NLRP3 inflammasome activation.In a male C57BL/6J mouse model of LPS-induced septic shock treated with 20 and 40 mg/kg DMQ,the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in the serum and peritoneal lavage fluid were determined using ELISA,and the survival time of the mice within 36 h was observed.Results Treatment with DMQ effectively inhibited LPS-induced activation of canonical NLRP3 inflammasome in mouse BMDM and human THP-1 cells and also inhibited non-canonical NLRP3 inflammasome activation in mouse BMDM,but produced no significant effect on AIM2 inflammasome activation.DMQ significantly blocked the binding between ASC and NLRP3.In the mouse models of septic shock,DMQ treatment significantly reduced the levels of IL-1β in the serum and peritoneal fluid and obviously prolonged survival time of the mice.Conclusion DMQ can effectively block ASC-NLRP3 interaction to inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activation and alleviate LPS-induced septic shock in mice.
