Effects of daphnetin modulating STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway on immune inflammatory response in sepsis rats
Objective To explore the effects of dapnetin's regulation of STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway on immune inflammatory response in sepsis rats.Methods In this study,80 male Sprague Dawley(SD)rats were selected and randomly divided into four groups,20 rats in the sham-operation group,the remaining 60 mice with sepsis were constructed according to cecal ligation puncture(CLP)method and were intraperitoneally injected with different doses of dapnetin.They were divided into no-dapnetin model group(0 mg/kg),low-dose group(2.5 mg/kg),and high-dose group(5 mg/kg),with 20 mice in each group.The model group and sham-operation group were intraperitoneally injected with 0.1％DMSO.The survival rate of rats in each group after 72 h of CLP modeling was observed.Lung,kidney,liver and spleen tissues were collected for histopathological analysis.Serum inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β)were detected by ELISA,T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry,and STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway protein expression was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with sham-operation group,the survival rate of rats in model group was reduced(P＜0.05),each organ tissue injury was significant,serum inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-1β)levels were increased(P＜0.05),CD4+ratio and CD4+/CD8+ratio in peripheral blood were decreased(P＜0.05),while CD8+ratio and Th1/Th2 ratio were increased(P＜0.05),the protein expressions of STING,p-TBK1/TBK1 and p-IRF3/IRF3 were downregulated(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,dapnetin in high-dose group improved the survival rate of rats(P＜0.05),the injury of all organs and tissues was reduced,and the level of serum inflammatory factors was decreased(P＜0.05),CD4+ratio and CD4+/CD8+ratio in peripheral blood were increased(P＜0.05),while CD8+ratio and Th1/Th2 ratio were decreased(P＜0.05),the protein expressions of STING,p-TBK1/TBK1 and p-IRF3/IRF3 were increased(P＜0.05).Conclusion Dapnetin can improve the immune inflammatory response of sepsis rats by regulating STING/TBK1/IRF3 signaling pathway.
