Copper metabolism MURR1 domain1 (COMMD1) is a novel inhibitor of the transcription factors NF-kappaB and HIF-1, which play important roles in inflammation and tumor growth, respectively. In this study, we identified two highly conserved nuclear export signals (NESs) in COMMD1 and revealed that these NESs were essential and sufficient to induce maximal nuclear export of COMMD1. Inhibition of CRM1-mediated nuclear export by Leptomycin B resulted in nuclear accumulation of COMMD1. In addition, low oxygen concentrations induced the active export of COMMD1 from the nucleus in a CRM1-dependent manner. Disruption of the NESs in COMMD1 increased the repression of COMMD1 in transcriptional activity of NF-kappaB and HIF-1. In conclusion, these data indicate that COMMD1 undergoes constitutive nucleocytoplasmic transport as a novel mechanism to regulate NF-kappaB and HIF-1 signaling.

It was previously found that the severity of LPS-induced systemic inflammatory response (SIRS) in rats is determined by resistance to hypoxia and the level of Hif1a expression. Individual differences in the level of Hif1a and NFkb expression in the liver were studied in relation to the severity of inflammatory and immune reactions in LPS-induced SIRS in rats without previous placement in a ventilated decompression chamber. During the early periods after SIRS modeling, rats with high expression of the Hif1a and NFkb genes associated with increased expression of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines are identified.

Article Synopsis
  • Inflammation is a key factor in many chronic diseases, and silibinin has strong anti-inflammatory properties but low effectiveness in the body due to poor absorption.
  • This study examines how dibenzoylmethane (DBM) can enhance silibinin's effects, revealing that their combination significantly reduces inflammatory markers in both cell and animal models.
  • The findings suggest that DBM and silibinin work together by targeting specific signaling pathways and proteins, making their combination a promising strategy for improving anti-inflammatory treatments.

Cytokine storm is a hallmark for acute systemic inflammatory disease like sepsis. Intrinsic microbiome-derived short-chain fatty acid (SCFAs) like acetate modulates immune cell function and metabolism has been well studied. However, it remains poorly investigated about the effects and the underlying mechanism of exogenous acetate in acute inflammation like sepsis.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating disease observed in premature infants, characterized by intestinal ischemia and inflammation. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), a master regulator of the cellular response to hypoxia and ischemia, plays a critical role in NEC pathogenesis. However, the precise mechanisms by which HIF-1α influences the intestines in NEC remain poorly understood.
