目的 在小鼠骨髓源性巨噬细胞(bone marrow derived macrophage,BMDM)中构建溶酶体损伤激活的NOD样受体热蛋白结构域相关蛋白3(NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3,NLRP3)炎症小体模型,探究蝙蝠葛碱对NLRP3炎症小体激活模型的抑制作用。方法 使用脂多糖(lipopolysaccharide,LPS)和亮氨酸-亮氨酸甲酯盐(Leu-Leu-O-methyl ester,LLOME)联合刺激BMDM细胞,设置对照组、LPS组、模型(LPS+LLOME)组和蝙蝠葛碱低、中、高剂量组。采用细胞计数试剂盒-8(cell counting kit-8,CCK-8)检测细胞活力;Western blotting检测剪切的半胱氨酸天冬氨酸蛋白酶-1(cleaved cysteinyl aspartate specific protease-1,cleaved Caspase-1)、剪切的白细胞介素-1β(cleaved interleukin-1β,cleaved IL-1β)、Gasdermin D的N端片段(Gasdermin D N-terminal,GSDMD-N)蛋白表达;ELISA检测细胞上清液中IL-1β水平;荧光显微镜结合碘化丙锭(propidium iodide,PI)染色检测焦亡细胞比例变化;采用RNA-seq测序结合生物信息学分析蝙蝠葛碱干预BMDM细胞的转录特征;利用galectin-3抗体结合免疫荧光分析蝙蝠葛碱对溶酶体膜损伤的影响;采用流式细胞术检测蝙蝠葛碱对溶酶体生成的影响。结果 蝙蝠葛碱显著抑制NLRP3炎症小体激活后的cleaved Caspase-1、cleaved IL-1β及GSDMD-N蛋白表达(P<0.05、0.001),并显著抑制IL-1β的分泌(P<0.001)。蝙蝠葛碱明显改善细胞损伤,抑制细胞焦亡及焦亡小泡的形成,降低PI阳性细胞比例(P<0.001)。蝙蝠葛碱能够上调溶酶体生成相关基因表达,促进溶酶体生成,抑制溶酶体膜损伤后形成的galectin-3(P<0.05、0.001)。结论 蝙蝠葛碱通过促进溶酶体生物发生,减少溶酶体膜损伤,从而抑制溶酶体损伤激活的NLRP3炎症小体。

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effects of dauricine on NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome model activated by lysosome damage in bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) of mice. Methods Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Leu-Leu-O-methyl ester (LLOME) were used in combination to stimulate BMDM cells, control group, LPS group, model (LPS + LLOME) group, and dauricine low-, medium-, and high-dose groups were set up. Cell viability was detected using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8); Western blotting was used to detect the protein expressiond of cleaved cysteine aspartate specific protease-1 (cleaved Caspase-1), cleaved interleukin-1β (cleaved IL-1β) and Gasdermin D N-terminal (GSDMD-N); ELISA was used to detect IL-1β level in cell supernatant; Fluorescence microscopy combined with propidium iodide (PI) staining were used to detect changes in the proportion of pyroptosis cells; RNA sequencing combined with bioinformatics analysis were used to investigate the transcriptional characteristics of dauricine intervention in BMDM cells; Galectin-3 antibody combined with immunofluorescence analysis were used to investigate the effect of dauricine on lysosomal membrane damage; Flow cytometry was used to detect the effect of dauricine on lysosome production. Results Dauricine significantly inhibited the expressions of cleaved Caspase-1, cleaved IL-1β and GSDMD-N proteins after NLRP3 inflammasome activation (P < 0.05, 0.001), and significantly inhibited the secretion of IL-1β (P < 0.001). Dauricine significantly improved cell damage, inhibited cell pyroptosis and the formation of pyroptosis vesicles, and reduced the proportion of PI positive cells (P < 0.001). Dauricine could upregulate the expressions of genes related to lysosome formation, promote lysosome formation, and inhibit the formation of galectin-3 after lysosome membrane damage (P < 0.05, 0.001). Conclusion Dauricine promotes lysosomal biogenesis, reduces lysosomal membrane damage, and thus inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activated by lysosomal damage.
