摘要
Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a life-threatening disease. Macrophage pyroptosis has been reported to exert function in ALI. We aimed to investigate the mechanisms of ANGPTL4-mediated cell pyroptosis in sepsis-induced ALI, thus providing new insights into the pathogenesis and prevention and treatment measures of sepsis-induced ALI. In vivo animal models and in vitro cell models were established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) method and lipopolysaccharide-induced macrophages RAW264.7. ANGPTL4 was silenced in CLP mice or macrophages, followed by the determination of ANGPTL4 expression in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) or macrophages. Lung histopathology was observed by H&E staining, with pathological injury scores evaluated and lung wet and dry weight ratio recorded. M1/M2 macrophage marker levels (iNOS/CD86/Arg1), inflammatory factor (TNF-α/IL-6/IL-1β/iNOS) expression in BALF, cell death and pyroptosis, NLRP3 inflammasome, cell pyroptosis-related protein (NLRP3/Cleaved-caspase-1/caspase-1/GSDMD-N) levels, NF-κB pathway activation were assessed by RT-qPCR/ELISA/flow cytometry/Western blot, respectively. ANGPTL4 was highly expressed in mice with sepsis-induced ALI, and ANGPTL4 silencing ameliorated sepsis-induced ALI in mice. In vivo, ANGPTL4 silencing repressed M1 macrophage polarization and macrophage pyroptosis in mice with sepsis-induced ALI. In vitro, ANGPTL4 knockout impeded LPS-induced activation and pyroptosis of M1 macrophages and hindered LPS-induced activation of the NF-κB pathway in macrophages. Knockdown of ANGPTL4 blocks the NF-κB pathway activation, hinders macrophage M1 polarization and pyroptosis, thereby suppressing sepsis-induced ALI.
