Inflammatory Response I: Vascular and Cellular

12.5K
The inflammatory response is the body's defense against infection, injury, or irritation from bacteria, trauma, toxins, or heat. Inflammation helps locate and destroy pathogens and remove damaged tissue elements to heal the body. During this initial phase, fluid, blood products, and nutrients migrate to the injured area, resulting in redness, heat, swelling, ache, and loss of function. Moreover, signs of systemic inflammation include fever, increased WBC count, malaise, anorexia, nausea,...

Inflammatory Response

7.9K
An inflammatory response is a localized, nonspecific immune reaction that occurs when a tissue is injured. It is characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain, which are commonly called the cardinal signs and symptoms of inflammation. Inflammation can sometimes result in a loss of function.
Inflammation can be triggered by various stimuli, such as impact, abrasion, chemical irritation, infections, and extreme hot or cold temperatures. These can damage cells and connective tissue fibers,...

Mismatch Repair

5.2K
Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Regulation of the Unfolded Protein Response

2.6K
Inositol-requiring kinase one or IRE1 is the most conserved eukaryotic unfolded protein response (UPR) receptor. It is a type I transmembrane protein kinase receptor with a distinctive site-specific RNase activity. As the binding mechanics of the misfolded proteins with the N-terminal domain of IRE-1 are unclear, three binding models — direct, indirect, and allosteric -- are proposed for receptor activation. Nevertheless, it is known that once a misfolded protein associates with IRE1, it...

The Unfolded Protein Response01:37

The Unfolded Protein Response

5.1K
The ER is the hub of protein synthesis in a cell. It has robust systems to quality control protein folding and also for degradation of terminally misfolded proteins. Under normal conditions, a small proportion of misfolded proteins that cannot be salvaged need to be transported to the cytoplasm by the ER-associated degradation or ERAD pathways. However, if the ERAD cannot handle the misfolded proteins, the cell activates the unfolded protein response or UPR to adjust the protein folding...

Summary

Resolvin D1 (RvD1) combats liver damage in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) by reducing cell death and inflammation. This study reveals RvD1’s crucial role in inter-cellular communication within the liver to protect against MASH progression.

Area of Science:

  • Hepatology
  • Immunology
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) presents a significant global health challenge with limited therapeutic options.
  • Resolvin D1 (RvD1), a specialized pro-resolving mediator derived from docosahexaenoic acid, shows promise in treating chronic liver diseases, but its mechanisms remain unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role and mechanism of RvD1-mediated cellular crosstalk in the context of MASH.
  • To elucidate how RvD1 influences interactions between hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells in MASH.

Main Methods:

  • Administered RvD1 to mice with experimental MASH and performed bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing.
  • Isolated primary liver cells (hepatocytes, Kupffer cells, T cells, hepatic stellate cells) for co-culture experiments.
  • Assessed the impact of RvD1 on cell death, inflammation, and fibrosis markers.

Main Results:

  • Hepatic RvD1 levels were decreased in both murine and human MASH.
  • RvD1 administration attenuated hepatocellular death, inflammation, and liver fibrosis in MASH models.
  • RvD1 suppressed endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced hepatocyte death and reduced the activation of Kupffer cells, T cells, and hepatic stellate cells.

Conclusions:

  • RvD1 mitigates MASH progression by reducing hepatocyte death and DAMP production via alleviating ER stress-mediated apoptosis.
  • RvD1’s action on cellular crosstalk between hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells offers a novel therapeutic strategy for MASH.
  • This study provides mechanistic insights into RvD1's protective effects in MASH, highlighting its therapeutic potential.
