Mechanism of lactic acidemia-promoted pulmonary endothelial cells death in sepsis: role for CIRP-ZBP1-PANoptosis pathway.
Background: Sepsis is often accompanied by lactic acidemia and acute lung injury (ALI). Clinical studies have established that high serum lactate levels are associated with increased mortality rates in septic patients. We further observed a significant correlation between the levels of cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP) in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), as well as lactate levels, and the severity of post-sepsis ALI. The underlying mechanism, however, remains elusive.
Methods: C57BL/6 wild type (WT), Casp8-/-, Ripk3-/-, and Zbp1-/- mice were subjected to the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) sepsis model. In this model, we measured intra-macrophage CIRP lactylation and the subsequent release of CIRP. We also tracked the internalization of extracellular CIRP (eCIRP) in pulmonary vascular endothelial cells (PVECs) and its interaction with Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1). Furthermore, we monitored changes in ZBP1 levels in PVECs and the consequent activation of cell death pathways.
Results: In the current study, we demonstrate that lactate, accumulating during sepsis, promotes the lactylation of CIRP in macrophages, leading to the release of CIRP. Once eCIRP is internalized by PVEC through a Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated endocytosis pathway, it competitively binds to ZBP1 and effectively blocks the interaction between ZBP1 and tripartite motif containing 32 (TRIM32), an E3 ubiquitin ligase targeting ZBP1 for proteasomal degradation. This interference mechanism stabilizes ZBP1, thereby enhancing ZBP1-receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)-dependent PVEC PANoptosis, a form of cell death involving the simultaneous activation of multiple cell death pathways, thereby exacerbating ALI.
Conclusions: These findings unveil a novel pathway by which lactic acidemia promotes macrophage-derived eCIRP release, which, in turn, mediates ZBP1-dependent PVEC PANoptosis in sepsis-induced ALI. This finding offers new insights into the molecular mechanisms driving sepsis-related pulmonary complications and provides potential new therapeutic strategies.
期刊介绍:
Military Medical Research is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that aims to share the most up-to-date evidence and innovative discoveries in a wide range of fields, including basic and clinical sciences, translational research, precision medicine, emerging interdisciplinary subjects, and advanced technologies. Our primary focus is on modern military medicine; however, we also encourage submissions from other related areas. This includes, but is not limited to, basic medical research with the potential for translation into practice, as well as clinical research that could impact medical care both in times of warfare and during peacetime military operations.
