Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activators of transcription 1 (JAK2/STAT1) signaling is a common pathway that contributes to numerous inflammatory disorders, including different forms of acute lung injury (ALI). However, the role of JAK2/STAT1 in ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) and its underlying mechanism remain unclear. In this study, using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) inhalation plus mechanical ventilation as VILI mouse model, we found that the administration of JAK2 inhibitor AZD1480 markedly attenuated lung destruction, diminished protein leakage, and inhibited cytokine release. In addition, when mouse macrophage-like RAW 264.7 cells were exposed to LPS and cyclic stretch (CS), AZD1480 prevented cell autophagy, reduced apoptosis, and suppressed lactate dehydrogenase release by downregulating JAK2/STAT1 phosphorylation levels and inducing HMGB1 translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Furthermore, HMGB1 and STAT1 knockdown attenuated LPS+CS-induced autophagy and apoptosis in RAW 264.7 cells. In conclusion, these findings reveal the connection between the JAK2/STAT1 pathway and HMGB1 translocation in mediating lung inflammation and cell death in VILI, suggesting that these molecules may serve as novel therapeutic targets for VILI.

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by synovial inflammation and fibrosis. Gentiopicroside (GPS), one of the main active ingredients of Gentiana macrophylla, is widely used in anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic therapies. However, the exact mechanism by which GPS treats synovial inflammation and fibrosis in KOA remains unclear.

Article Synopsis
  • Previous studies linked high HMGB1 levels to the development of steroid-insensitive asthma caused by toluene diisocyanate (TDI), highlighting mitochondrial dysfunction in bronchial epithelia.
  • This study aims to determine if PGAM5, a mitochondrial protein, influences HMGB1 release in TDI-induced asthma by comparing its levels in asthma patients and healthy individuals and conducting various animal and in vitro experiments.
  • Findings showed that inhibiting PGAM5 reduced airway inflammation and HMGB1 release in TDI-exposed mice, illustrating a potential regulatory mechanism involving mitochondrial apoptosis-related processes.

Sorting nexins (SNXs) as the key regulators of sorting cargo proteins are involved in diverse diseases. SNXs can form the specific reverse vesicle transport complex (SNXs-retromer) with vacuolar protein sortings (VPSs) to sort and modulate recovery and degradation of cargo proteins. Our previous study has shown that SNX3-retromer promotes both STAT3 activation and nuclear translocation in cardiomyocytes, suggesting that SNX3 might be a critical regulator in the heart.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease characterized by recurrent breathing difficulties caused by airway obstruction and hypersensitivity. Although there is diversity in their specific mechanisms, microRNAs (miRNAs) have a significant impact on the development of asthma. Currently, the contribution of miR-130b-3p to asthma remains elusive.

High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) is a highly conserved non-histone chromatin-associated protein across species, primarily recognized for its regulatory impact on vital cellular processes, like autophagy, cell survival, and apoptosis. HMGB1 exhibits dual functionality based on its localization: both as a non-histone protein in the nucleus and as an inducer of inflammatory cytokines upon extracellular release. Pathophysiological insights reveal that HMGB1 plays a significant role in the onset and progression of a vast array of diseases, viz.
