Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory disease that can cause a variety of diseases, including septic acute kidney injury (AKI). Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are believed to be involved in the development of this disease. This study aims to clarify the function of circ_0001806 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced HK2 cell model and its related mechanisms. Circ_0001806 was up-regulated in septic AKI serum specimens and LPS-induced HK2 cells. Circ_0001806 knockdown promoted cell proliferation and restrained apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress in LPS-induced HK2 cells. In mechanism, circ_0001806 can be used as a sponge for miR-942-5p, and miR-942-5p can directly target TXNIP. Functional experiments revealed that the miR-942-5p inhibitor could reverse the alleviating effect of circ_0001806 knockdown on LPS-induced HK2 cell injury, and TXNIP addition can also reverse the inhibitory effect of miR-942-5p overexpression on LPS-induced HK2 cell injury. In addition, circ_0001806 regulated TXNIP expression through sponging miR-942-5p. Besides, exosome-derived circ_0001806 was upregulated in LPS-induced HK2 cells, while was downregulated by GW4869. The results showed that circ_0001806 knockdown could reduce LPS-induced HK2 cell injury by regulating TXNIP expression via targeting miR-942-5p, indicating that circ_0001806 might be an important biomarker for alleviating sepsis-related AKI. This might provide therapeutic strategy for the treatment of sepsis.

Article Synopsis
  • Acute liver failure (ALF) is a severe condition with high mortality rates, prompting this study to explore the effects of Sini Decoction plus Ginseng Soup (SNRS) on liver health and immune response.
  • Using bioinformatics and network pharmacology, the research identified key glycolysis-related genes influencing macrophage polarization and found that SNRS can improve liver injury outcomes and survival rates in an ALF model.
  • The study concluded that SNRS may effectively treat ALF by altering macrophage behavior and glucose metabolism through the mTOR/HIF-1α pathway, revealing its potential as a therapeutic option.

Curcumin and bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs)-derived exosomes are considered to be useful for the treatment of many human diseases, including sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). However, the role and underlying molecular mechanism of curcumin-loaded BMSCs-derived exosomes in the progression of SA-AKI remain unclear. Exosomes (BMSCs-EXO or BMSCs-EXO) were isolated from curcumin or DMSO-treated BMSCs, and then co-cultured with LPS-induced HK2 cells.

Long non-coding RNA TMC3-AS1 is identified to be upregulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in inflammatory disease, but its role in acute kidney injury (AKI) is almost unknown. The study investigated the involvement of TMC3-AS1 in LPS-induced AKI and its downstream molecular regulatory mechanism. Our data suggested that knocking down TMC3-AS1 significantly reduced renal dysfunction, tissue inflammation and tissue damage in LPS-induced mice, and promoted cell viability, inhibited inflammation, apoptosis and necrosis in LPS-stimulated human renal tubular epithelial cells HK2.

Objectives: To explore the mechanism by which Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family verprolin-homologous protein 1 (WAVE1) regulates lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mitochondrial metabolic abnormalities and inflammatory responses in macrophages.

Methods: Macrophage cell lines with overexpressed WAVE1 (mouse BMDM and human THP1 cells) were prepared. The macrophages were treated with LPS (500 ng/mL) to simulate sepsis-induced inflammatory responses.

Regulation of lactate accumulation in bovine mammary epithelial cells by LPS-induced HIF-1α/MCT1 pathway.

Lactate has been increasingly recognized for its role in diseases progression, necessitating a deeper understanding of its metabolic processes and regulatory mechanisms. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on lactate accumulation in bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs) and to elucidate the underlying regulatory mechanisms. Further optimization of LPS treatment points was achieved by assessing the content of key glycolytic enzymes-hexokinases (HK), pyruvate kinase (PK) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH)-as well as the expression levels of HK2, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase4 (PDK4) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDHA).
