Project description:To investigate the role of Irg1-itaconate or Hemin in macrophages, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from WT mice and Irg1 KO mice were extracted and cultured. After 7 days of cells culture, the BMDMs from WT mice were treated 120 μM 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI) for 15 h, 15 μM Hemin for 12 h, and the BMDMs from Irg1 KO mice and WT mice were treated Vehicle for 12 h. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 4-OI, Hemin or vehicle treated WT BMDMs and Irg1 KO BMDMs.

Project description:Our in vitro cell research has revealed that LPS stimulation can induce the upregulation of the immune response gene 1 (Irg1) in neutrophils. Itaconic acid is a metabolic derivative generated by Irg1,4-octyl itaconate, which is exogenous itaconate, can exert protective effects in acute colitis. we utilized RNA sequencing-based omics analysis to explore the impact of 4OI treatment on the activation of inflammatory responses in neutrophils and the underlying mechanisms.Transcriptomic analysis revealed that 4-OI suppresses inflammatory signaling pathways including NF-κB and Toll-like receptor pathways.The experiment was divided into 3 groups, including the control group, the LPS stimulation experimental group, and the 4-OI treatment group.

Project description:It is important to mitigate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury for improving the success of heart transplantation (HT) and the quality of life of patients.4-OI is a derivative of itaconate with similar chemical properties and biological activities as itaconate. However, 4-OI could overcome the limitations of itaconate in in vivo applications such as inefficient cellular uptake and rapid metabolism, making it more suitable for exploratory studies in the therapeutic direction.In our study, we demonstrated that 4-OI is an effective therapeutic strategy against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury after heart transplantation.

Project description:To investigate the role of Irg1-itacaonate on Nrf2-transcripting genes in macrophages, RAW264.7 cells were cultured and were treated 120 μM 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI) or Vehicle for 8 h. We then performed ChIP-seq analysis from 4-OI or vehicle treated RAW264.7 cells using Nrf2 or IgG antibodies.

Project description:One primary metabolic manifestation of inflammation is the diversion of cis-aconitate within the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle to synthesize the immunometabolite itaconate. Itaconate is well established to possess immunomodulatory and metabolic effects within myeloid cells and lymphocytes, however, its effects in other organ systems during sepsis remain less clear. Utilizing Irg1 knockout mice that are deficient in synthesizing itaconate, we aimed at understanding the metabolic role of itaconate in the liver and systemically during sepsis. We find itaconate aids in lipid metabolism during sepsis. Specifically, Irg1 KO mice develop a heightened level of hepatic steatosis when induced with polymicrobial sepsis. Proteomics analysis reveal enhanced expression of enzymes involved in fatty acid oxidation in following 4-ocytl itaconate (4-OI) treatment in vitro. Downstream analysis reveals itaconate stabilizes the expression of the mitochondrial fatty acid uptake enzyme CPT1a, mediated by its hypoubiquitination. Chemoproteomic analysis revealed itaconate interacts with proteins involved in protein ubiquitination as a potential mechanism underlying its stabilizing effect on CPT1a. From a systemic perspective, we find itaconate deficiency triggers a hypothermic response following endotoxin stimulation, potentially mediated by brown adipose tissue (BAT) dysfunction. Finally, by use of metabolic cage studies, we demonstrate Irg1 KO mice rely more heavily on carbohydrates versus fatty acid sources for systemic fuel utilization in response to endotoxin treatment. Our data reveal a novel metabolic role of itaconate in modulating fatty acid oxidation during polymicrobial sepsis.

Project description:Remodeling of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is a metabolic adaptation mechanism accompanying inflammatory macrophage activation. During this process, endogenous metabolites can adopt regulatory roles that govern specific aspects of inflammatory response, as recently shown for succinate, which regulates the downstream pro-inflammatory IL-1β-HIF1a axis. Itaconate is one of the most highly induced metabolites in activated macrophages, yet its functional significance remains unknown. Here, we show that itaconate modulates macrophage metabolism and effector functions via its effect on succinate dehydrogenase, by inhibiting conversion of succinate to fumarate. Through this action, itaconate exerts anti-inflammatory effects when administered in vitro and in vivo during macrophage activation and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Using newly generated Irg1-/- mice, which lack the ability to produce itaconate, we show that endogenous itaconate regulates succinate levels and function, changes in mitochondrial respiration, and inflammatory cytokine production during macrophage activation. These studies highlight itaconate as a major physiological regulator of the global metabolic rewiring and effector functions of inflammatory macrophages. Experiment 1: mature WT BMDM were treated for 12h with 0.25 mM dimethyl itaconate (DI) or vehicle (Unst) and then stimulated with LPS (E. coli 0111:B4; 100 ng/ml, 4h) (DI+LPS; LPS); Experiment 2: mature Irg1-/- BMDM were stimulated with LPS (E. coli 0111:B4; 100 ng/ml) and murine recombinant IFNg (50 ng/ml) for 24h.

Project description:<p>The Krebs cycle-derived metabolite itaconate, whose production is catalyzed by immune response gene 1 (IRG1), has excellent potential to link immunity and metabolism in activated macrophages through alkylation or competitive inhibition of target proteins. In support of this, our previous study demonstrated that the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling platform functions as a hub in macrophage immunity and has a profound impact on the prognosis of sepsis. Interestingly, we found that itaconate, an endogenous immunomodulator, can significantly inhibit the activation of STING signaling. Moreover, 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI), which is a permeable itaconate derivative, could alkylate cysteine sites 65, 71, 88, and 147 of STING, thereby inhibiting its phosphorylation and downregulating the production of related inflammatory factors. Furthermore, itaconate and 4-OI inhibited the production of inflammatory factors in sepsis models. Our results have broadened the role of the IRG1-Itaconate axis in immunomodulation and highlighted itaconate and its derivatives as potential therapeutic agents in sepsis.</p>

Project description:Enhanced osteoclast-mediated bone erosion is a prominent hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis. Emerging evidence suggests that this process is facilitated by metabolic dysregulation of osteoclasts. The mitochondrial enzyme aconitate decarboxylase 1 (Acod1, also known as immune responsive gene 1 [Irg1]) serves as a mediator between the metabolic condition and the functional state of different types of cells. Acod1-deficient mice are characterized by enhanced osteoclast differentiation and bone erosion in an inflammatory arthritis model, while therapeutic treatment with the itaconate-derivative 4-octyl-itaconate (4-OI) alleviates the disease phenotype in experimental arthritis. To ascertain the influence of the Acod1-itaconate axis on the genomic transcriptional network of osteoclasts, we performed a whole transcriptome RNA sequencing analysis with fully differentiated osteoclasts from WT and Acod1-deficient mice that were cultured in the presence or absence of 4-OI.

Project description:The long-term maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) relies on the regulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress at a low level, but the underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that suppression of ER stress improves the functions of HSCs and protects HSCs against ionizing radiation (IR)-induced injury. We identify epithelial membrane protein 1 (EMP1) as a key regulator that mitigates ER stress in HSCs. Emp1 deficiency leads to the accumulation of protein aggregates and elevated ER stress, ultimately resulting in impaired HSC maintenance and self-renewal. Mechanistically, EMP1 is located within the ER and interacts with ceramide synthase 2 (CERS2) to limit the production of a class of sphingolipids, dihydroceramides (dhCers). DhCers accumulate in Emp1-deficient HSCs and induce protein aggregation. Furthermore, Emp1 deficiency renders HSCs more susceptible to IR, while overexpression of Emp1 or inhibition of CERS2 protects HSCs against IR-induced injury. These findings highlight the critical role played by the EMP1-CERS2-dhCers axis in constraining ER stress and preserving HSC potential.
