Lipocalin-2 protects the brain during inflammatory conditions

ABSTRACT: Sepsis is a prevalent health issue that can lead to central nervous system (CNS) inflammation with long-term behavioral and cognitive alterations. Using unbiased proteomic profiling of over 100 different cytokines, we found that Lipocalin-2 (LCN2) was the most substantially elevated protein in the CNS after peripheral administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). To determine whether the high level of LCN2 in the CNS is protective or deleterious, we challenged Lcn2-/- mice with peripheral LPS and determined effects on behavior and neuroinflammation. At a time corresponding to peak LCN2 induction in WT mice injected with LPS, Lcn2-/- mice challenged with LPS had exacerbated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and exhibited significantly worsened behavioral phenotypes. To determine the extent of global inflammatory changes dependent upon LCN2, we performed an RNAseq transcriptomic analysis. Compared to WT mice injected with LPS, Lcn2-/- mice injected with LPS had unique transcriptional profiles and significantly elevated levels of multiple pro-inflammatory molecules. Several LCN2-dependent pathways were revealed with this analysis including, cytokine and chemokine signaling, NOD-like receptor signaling, and Jak-STAT signaling. These findings demonstrate that LCN2 serves as a potent protective factor in the CNS in response to systemic inflammation and may be a potential candidate for limiting sepsis-related CNS sequelae.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveals distinct microglia signatures under inflammation

Project description:Microglia are specialized parenchymal-resident phagocytes of the central nervous system (CNS) that actively support, defend and modulate the neural environment. Dysfunctional microglia responses are believed to worsen CNS diseases, nevertheless their impact during the neuroinflammatory processes remains largely obscure. Here, using a combination of multicolor flow cytometry and single-cell RNA sequencing, we comprehensively profiled microglia in the brain of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-injected mice. By excluding the contribution of other immune CNS-resident and peripheral cells, we showed that microglia isolated from LPS-injected mice displayed a global downregulation of their homeostatic signature together with an upregulation of inflammatory genes. Notably, we identified distinct microglia activated profiles under inflammatory conditions, which greatly differ from neurodegenerative disease-associated profiles. These results provide insights into microglia heterogeneity and establish a resource for the identification of specific phenotypes in CNS disorders, such as neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases.

Tangeretin alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting ferroptosis of macrophage via Nrf2 pathways

Project description:Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe clinical condition with a high mortality rate. Tangeretin, widely found in citrus fruits, has been reported to exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, whether Tangeretin protects against sepsis-induced ALI and the potential mechanisms remain unclear.We established ALI model via intraperitoneally injected with 5 mg/kg lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for 12 h. Tangeretin was applied intraperitoneally 30 min before LPS treatment. The lung tissue samples from both the LPS and LPS + TAN groups were subjected to RNA sequencing analysis, conducted by OE Biotech Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). We performed differential gene expression analysis using RNA-seq data between LPS and LPS/Tangeretin group.GSEA analysis between LPS and LPS/Tangeretin group showed that IL6_JAK_STAT3_SIGNALING, INFLAMMATORY_RESPONSE, TNFA_SIGNALING_VIA_NFKB were significantly enriched (Fig.3C-E). These results identified the anti-inflammatory effect of Tangeretin against sepsis-induced ALI.

Transcriptional response in a sepsis mouse model reflects transcriptional response in sepsis patients

Project description:Mortality due to sepsis remains unacceptably high, especially for septic shock patients. Murine models have been used to better understand pathophysiology mechanisms. However, the mouse model is still under debate. Here we investigated the transcriptional response of mice injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and compared it with that of human cells stimulated in vitro with LPS on the one hand, and with that of blood cells in septic patients on the other hand. We identified a molecular signature composed of 2331 genes with an FDR median of 0%. This molecular signature is highly enriched in regulated genes in peritoneal macrophages stimulated with LPS. There is a significant enrichment in several inflammatory signaling pathways, and in disease terms, such as pneumonia, sepsis, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, severe sepsis, an inflammatory disorder, immune suppression, and septic shock. A significant overlap between the genes up-regulated in mouse and human cells stimulated with LPS has been demonstrated. Finally, genes up-regulated in mouse cells stimulated with LPS are enriched in genes up-regulated in human cells stimulated in vitro and in septic patients, who are at high risk of death. Our results support the hypothesis of common molecular and cellular mechanisms between mouse and human sepsis.

Expression data from mouse liver infected with Ft LVS (without or with LPS pretreatment)

Project description:Background: It has been shown previously that administration of Francisella tularensis (Ft) LVS lipopolysaccharide (LPS) protects mice against subsequent challenge with Ft LVS and blunts the pro-inflammatory cytokine response. Methods: To investigate further the molecular mechanisms that underlie Ft LVS LPS-mediated protection, we profiled global hepatic gene expression following Ft LVS LPS or saline pretreatment and subsequent Ft LVS challenge using Affymetrix arrays. Results: A large number of genes (> 3000) were differentially expressed at 48 hours post-infection. The degree of modulation of inflammatory genes by infection was clearly attenuated by LPS-pretreatment in the surviving mice. However, LPS alone had a subtle but significant effect on the gene expression profile of the uninfected mice. By employing gene set enrichment analysis, we discovered significant up-regulation of peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) and their target genes in LPS-treated liver. Conclusions: We hypothesize that the LPS-induced blunting of pro-inflammatory response in mouse is, in part, mediated by PPARs (alpha and gamma). Experiment Overall Design: Two groups of 9 mice each were used for this experiment. 48 hours prior to Ft LVS challenge, mice were injected i.p. with either 100 ng of Ft LVS LPS or an equivalent volume of saline. On the day of challenge, 3 saline- and 3 Ft LVS LPS-pretreated animals were sacrificed (uninfected controls), while all remaining mice were challenged i.p. with ~4-5 X 105 Ft LVS. Ft LVS-challenged mice were sacrificed (in groups of 3) at 24 and 48 hours post-infection.

Transcription profiling of brain tissue from wild type and casp1 knock-out mice treated with lipopolysaccharide or sodium chloride

Project description:The systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a life-threatening medical condition characterized by a severe and generalized inflammatory state that can lead to multiple organ failure and shock. The central nervous system (CNS) regulates many features of SIRS, such as fever, cardiovascular and neuroendocrine responses. <br> <br> Central and systemic manifestations of SIRS can be induced by LPS or interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß) administration. The crucial role of IL-1ß in inflammation has been further highlighted by studies of mice lacking caspase 1 (casp1, also known as IL-1ß convertase), a protease that cleaves pro-IL-1ß into mature IL-1ß. Indeed, casp1 knockout (casp1-/-) mice survive lethal doses of LPS. The key role of IL-1ß in sickness behavior and its de-novo expression in the CNS during inflammation led us to test the hypothesis that IL-1ß plays a major role modulating the brain transcriptome during SIRS. <br> <br> We show here a genetic background environment effect caused by LPS administration in casp1-/- when compared to wild-type mice affecting the expression several genes, such as chemokines, GTPases, the metalloprotease ADAMTS1, IL-1RA, the inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were differentially increased by. Our findings may contribute to the understanding of the molecular changes that take place within the CNS during sepsis and SIRS and the development of new therapies for these serious conditions. Our results indicate that those genes may also play a role in several neuropsychiatric conditions in which inflammation has been implicated, and indicate that casp1 might be a potential therapeutic target for such disorders.

Transcriptome analysis of blood monocytes from sepsis patients

Project description:Blood monocytes serve as the first line of host defense and are equipped to recognize and respond to infection by triggering an immune-inflammatory response. While most information on these cells comes from in vitro studies in humans or in vivo studies in mice, little is known about monocytes under human disease conditions. We investigated the role of monocytes during sepsis and its resolution in humans. A transcriptomal and functional analysis of blood monocytes from patients during gram negative sepsis and at recovery was performed. Monocytes from sepsis patients showed upregulation of a large number of pro-inflammatory genes and cytokines/chemokines, consistent with an ongoing systemic inflammation. However, these cells showed impairment to ex vivo endotoxin (LPS) challenge, displaying a quantitative decrease in the number of LPS-inducible genes. Moreover, they downregulated the expression of several pro-inflammatory cytokine/chemokine genes, activation marker genes and transcription factors associated with monocyte/macrophage activation, upon ex vivo LPS stimulation. Functionally, they downregulated expression of inflammatory cytokines/chemokines and antigen presentation-related molecules and functions. In contrast, genes and functions related to phagocytosis, anti-microbial activity and tissue remodeling where remained unaffected or even enhanced . Collectively, our observations suggest a genetic and functional re-programming of these cells during human sepsis progression. Understanding the molecular mechanisms which regulate this re-programming will allow to devise strategies which could modulate the response of these cells and hence, disease progression. Blood monocytes from gram-negative sepsis patients during sepsis (Sepsis) and following their recovery (Recovery/Basal) as well as healthy donor (control) were isolated. Thereafter, these cells were treated ex vivo with or without LPS for 3h and analysed for transcriptomic study.

Value of lipocalin 2 as a potential biomarker for bacterial meningitis

Project description:Objectives: Central nervous system (CNS) infections are common causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. We aimed to discover protein biomarkers that could rapidly and accurately identify the likely cause of the infections, essential for clinical management and improving outcome. Methods: We applied liquid chromatography tandem mass-spectrometry on 45 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from a cohort of adults with/without CNS infections to discover potential diagnostic biomarkers. We then validated the diagnostic performance of a selected biomarker candidate in an independent cohort of 364 consecutively treated adults with CNS infections admitted to a referral hospital in Vietnam. Results: In the discovery cohort, we identified lipocalin 2 (LCN2) as a potential biomarker of bacterial meningitis (BM) other than tuberculous meningitis. The analysis of the validation cohort showed that LCN2 could discriminate BM from other CNS infections (including tuberculous meningitis, cryptococcal meningitis and viral/antibody-mediated encephalitis), with the sensitivity: 0.88 (95% confident interval (CI): 0.77-0.94), the specificity: 0.91 (95%CI: 0.88-0.94) and the diagnostic odd ratio: 73.8 (95%CI: 31.8-171.4)). LCN2 outperformed other CSF markers (leukocytes, glucose, protein and lactate) commonly used in routine care worldwide. The combination of LCN2, CSF leukocytes, glucose, protein and lactate resulted in the highest diagnostic performance for BM (area under receiver-operating-characteristic-curve 0.96; 95%CI: 0.93-0.99). Conclusions: Our results suggest that LCN2 is a sensitive and specific biomarker for discriminating BM from a broad spectrum of other CNS infections. A prospective study is needed to assess the diagnostic utility of LCN2 in the diagnosis and management of CNS infections..
