Active polypeptide MDANP protect against necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) by regulating the PERK-eIF2ɑ-QRICH1 axis.

ABSTRACT: The effect of MDANP effects on ER stress signalling not well known or elucidated. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays a critical role in necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) pathogenesis through the PERK-eIF2ɑ-QRICH1 axis. The present study aimed to explore the protective effects of MDANP in NEC development. Firstly, a function screening was designed to identify the candidate peptides in human milk, and then the identified peptides were validated in NEC patients. In vivo, NEC was induced in mice pups and divided into four groups: (1) control group, (2) NEC group, (3) MDANP + NEC group, and (4) NS + NEC group. In vitro, lentivirus-mediated QRICH1 silencing, was used to transfect NCM460 cell lines, then stimulated with LPS. After LPS stimulation, cells were treated with chemically synthesized
