ABSTRACT: Purpose
To explore the mechanism underlying IL-8-induced neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation in patients with ocular-active Behçet's disease (BD) and the effect of inhibiting NET formation on the severity of inflammation in experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) mice.Methods
The serum extracellular DNA and neutrophil elastase (NE) and IL-8 levels in patients with ocular-active BD, the expression of myeloperoxidase, NE, and histone H3Cit in IL-8-induced neutrophils isolated from healthy controls, and the effects of NETs on HMC3 cells were detected. Female C57BL/6J mice were immunized with IRBP651-670 to induce EAU and EAU mice received intravitreal injection of the CXCR2 (IL-8 receptor) antagonist SB225002 or PBS. The serum levels of extracellular DNA, NE, and keratinocyte-derived chemokine (the mouse ortholog of human IL-8) and expression of myeloperoxidase, NE, and histone H3Cit in mouse retinas were detected. Disease severity was evaluated by clinical and histopathological scores.Results
Serum keratinocyte-derived chemokine expression levels in EAU mice and IL-8 expression levels in patients with ocular-active BD increased. IL-8 notably increased NET formation in a dose-dependent manner through an nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway dependent mechanism. IL-8-induced NET formation damaged HMC3 cells in vitro. Pretreatment with SB225002 notably ameliorated the production of NETs in EAU mice.Conclusions
Our data confirm that NET formation is induced by IL-8. IL-8-induced NET formation was found to be related to mitogen-activated protein kinase and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate pathways. Pretreatment with the CXCR2 antagonist SB225002 alleviated neutrophil infiltration and suppressed NET formation in EAU mice.
