Lipoxin A4 alleviates inflammation in Aspergillus fumigatus-stimulated human corneal epithelial cells by Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.
Purpose: To investigate the therapeutic effect of lipoxin A4 (LXA4) on Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus)-stimulated human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs).
Methods: The cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was performed in HCECs to evaluate the toxicity of LXA4. A cell scratch test was used to assess the impact of LXA4 on the migration of HCECs. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and western blot were applied to examine the expression of inflammatory mediators in A. fumigatus-stimulated HCECs. The nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) nuclear translocation and expression in HCECs were detected by immunofluorescence staining.
Results: LXA4 at 0-10 nmol·L-1 (nM) had no significant cytotoxic effect on HCECs. LXA4 at a concentration of 1 nM and 10 nM significantly promoted the migration rate of HCECs. The mRNA and protein levels of pro-inflammatory mediators, including IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6, were remarkably lower in the LXA4-treated group. LXA4 promoted the expression of Nrf2 and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) in A. fumigatus-stimulated HCECs compared with the PBS control group. Pretreatment with brusatol (BT, Nrf2 inhibitor) or Zine Protoporphyrin (Znpp, HO-1 inhibitor) receded the anti-inflammatory ability of LXA4.
Conclusions: LXA4 plays a protective role in A. fumigatus-stimulated HCECs by inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory mediators through the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.
期刊介绍：
Molecular Vision is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the dissemination of research results in molecular biology, cell biology, and the genetics of the visual system (ocular and cortical).
Molecular Vision publishes articles presenting original research that has not previously been published and comprehensive articles reviewing the current status of a particular field or topic. Submissions to Molecular Vision are subjected to rigorous peer review. Molecular Vision does NOT publish preprints.
For authors, Molecular Vision provides a rapid means of communicating important results. Access to Molecular Vision is free and unrestricted, allowing the widest possible audience for your article. Digital publishing allows you to use color images freely (and without fees). Additionally, you may publish animations, sounds, or other supplementary information that clarifies or supports your article. Each of the authors of an article may also list an electronic mail address (which will be updated upon request) to give interested readers easy access to authors.
