Punicalin Ameliorates Cell Pyroptosis Induced By Lps/Atp Through Suppression Of Ros/Nlrp3 Pathway
JOURNAL OF INFLAMMATION RESEARCH(2021)
摘要
Purpose: Inflammation is the driving force of many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, Pyroptosis is a process of cell death in response to excessive inflammation. Punicalin has been reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. However, the anti-pyroptosis is unknown. Hence, this study was aimed to research the inhibition of MG on LPS/ATP-induced pyroptosis in vitro.Methods: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/ATP were used to simulate mouse J774A.1 cells to mimic the inflammatory response and the role of punicalin was examined. The secretion of proinflammatory cytokines was analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expression of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor containing pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain (ASC), caspase-1, and GSDMD-N in LPS/ATP-stimulated cells were examined by Western blot. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was used to validate the role of Punicalin.Results: Punicalin significantly blocked the production of endogenous ROS, reduced LPS/ATP-induced activation of NLRP3, caspase 1, ASC and GSDMD-N, IL-1b and IL-18 protein levels. Furthermore, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an ROS scavenger, inhibited the LPS/ATP-stimulated activation of NLRP3 inflammasome mediated inflammation and pyroptosis.Conclusion: Punicalin ameliorates LPS/ATP-induced pyroptosis in J774A.1 macrophages, the mechanism may involve downregulation of the ROS/NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway.
