Project description:Ethnopharmacological relevance: Gubenfangxiao decoction (GBFXD) is a traditional Chinese medicine formula derived from Yupingfensan, an ancient formula widely used to treat respiratory diseases such as repeated respiratory infection, allergic rhinitis, bronchitis, and asthma. In recent years, GBFXD has been applied to efficaciously and safely treat asthma. However, the mechanism of GBFXD is still not fully elucidated. Aim of the study: A label-free proteomic method was to employed to explore the protective mechanism of GBFXD in respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-ovalbumin (OVA)-induced chronic persistent asthmatic mice. Materials and methods: After RSV-OVA challenge, mice were orally administered GBFXD at a dose of 36 g/kg/d accompanied with OVA nasal spray once every 3 days for 28 days. The label-free proteomics-based liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was used to explore the differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) in the serum from model mice compared with that in control mice (M:C), and in GBFXD-treated mice compared with that in model mice (G:M). We utilized OmicsBean (http://www.omicsbean.cn), a multi-omics data analysis platform, to perform bioinformatics analysis of DAPs. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western Blotting were performed to measure the levels of related proteins and verify the results of proteomics analysis. Results: A total of 69 significant DAPs were identified including 39 in M:C, 46 in G:M, and 16 common differential proteins. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the DAPs of M:C were mainly involved in inflammatory response and were related to lipid metabolism. However, the DAPs of G:M mostly participated in stress response, inflammatory response, and epithelial cell proliferation. Serum levels of Apoa-1, Apoc-1, Cfd, and Lrg1, EGFR and Lrg1 in the lungs were consistent with the results of proteomic analysis. Apoa-1 and Apoc-1 are closely related to cholesterol transport, lipid metabolism balance, and airway epithelial integrity; Cfd participates in immune response, affecting the occurrence and development of inflammation; EGFR and Lrg1 are involved in epithelial cell proliferation, influencing the process of airway remodeling. Conclusions: GBFXD may affect inflammatory and immune responses of asthma by regulating cholesterol transport and complement factor activation. Furthermore, it could repair damaged airway epithelium and avoid airway remodeling to prevent and treat asthma.

Project description:Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) is a permanent threat due to its capacity to cross species barriers and generate severe infections and high mortality in humans. Recent findings have highlighted the potential role of PB1-F2, a small accessory influenza protein, in the pathogenesis process mediated by HPAIV in mammals. In this study, using a recombinant H5N1 HPAIV (wt) and its PB1-F2-deleted mutant (M-NM-^TF2), we studied the effects of PB1-F2 in a chicken model. Unexpectedly, when using low inoculation dose we observed that the wt-infected chickens had a higher survival rate than the M-NM-^TF2-infected chickens, a feature that contrasts with what is usually observed in mammals. High inoculation dose had similar mortality rate for both viruses, and comparison of the bio-distribution of the two viruses indicated that the expression of PB1-F2 allows a better spreading of the virus within chicken embryos. Transcriptomic profiles of lungs and blood cells were characterized at two days post-infection in chickens inoculated with the wild type (wt) or the M-NM-^TF2 mutant viruses. In lungs, the expression of PB1-F2 during the infection induced pathways related to calcium signaling and repressed a large panel of immunological functions. In blood cells, PB1-F2 was associated to a gene signature specific for mitochondrial dysfunction and down-modulated leucocytes activation. Finally we compared the effect of PB1-F2 in lungs of chickens and mice. We identified that gene signature associated to tissue damages is a PB1-F2 feature shared by the two species; by contrast, the early inhibition of immune response mediated by PB1-F2 observed in chickens is not seen in mice. In summary, our data suggest that PB1-F2 expression deeply affect the immune host response in chickens in a way that may attenuate pathogenicity, a feature differing from what was previously observed in mammal species. Three-condition experiment, virus-infected (wt or M-NM-^TF2) vs. Mock-infected chickens. Biological replicates: 2x5 control replicates, 5 wt replicates, 5 M-NM-^TF2 replicates.
