Neuroinflammatory responses and blood-brain barrier injury in chronic alcohol exposure: role of purinergic P2 × 7 Receptor signaling.
Alcohol consumption leads to neuroinflammation and blood‒brain barrier (BBB) damage, resulting in neurological impairment. We previously demonstrated that ethanol-induced disruption of barrier function in human brain endothelial cells was associated with mitochondrial injury, increased ATP and extracellular vesicle (EV) release, and purinergic receptor P2 × 7R activation. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effect of P2 × 7R blockade on peripheral and neuro-inflammation in ethanol-exposed mice. In a chronic intermittent ethanol (CIE)-exposed mouse model, P2 × 7R was inhibited by two different methods: Brilliant Blue G (BBG) or gene knockout. We assessed blood ethanol concentration (BEC), brain microvessel gene expression by using RT2 PCR array, plasma P2 × 7R and P-gp, serum ATP, EV-ATP, number of EVs, and EV mtDNA copy numbers. An RT2 PCR array of brain microvessels revealed significant upregulation of proinflammatory genes involved in apoptosis, vasodilation, and platelet activation in CIE-exposed wild-type animals, which were decreased 15-50-fold in BBG-treated-CIE-exposed animals. Plasma P-gp levels and serum P2 × 7R shedding were significantly increased in CIE-exposed animals. Pharmacological or genetic suppression of P2 × 7R decreased receptor shedding to levels equivalent to those in control group. The increase in EV number and EV-ATP content in the CIE-exposed mice was significantly reduced by P2 × 7R inhibition. CIE mice showed augmented EV-mtDNA copy numbers which were reduced in EVs after P2 × 7R inhibition or receptor knockout. These observations suggested that P2 × 7R signaling plays a critical role in ethanol-induced brain injury. Increased extracellular ATP, EV-ATP, EV numbers, and EV-mtDNA copy numbers highlight a new mechanism of brain injury during alcohol exposure via P2 × 7R and biomarkers of such damage. In this study, for the first time, we report the in vivo involvement of P2 × 7R signaling in CIE-induced brain injury.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Neuroinflammation is a peer-reviewed, open access publication that emphasizes the interaction between the immune system, particularly the innate immune system, and the nervous system. It covers various aspects, including the involvement of CNS immune mediators like microglia and astrocytes, the cytokines and chemokines they produce, and the influence of peripheral neuro-immune interactions, T cells, monocytes, complement proteins, acute phase proteins, oxidative injury, and related molecular processes.
Neuroinflammation is a rapidly expanding field that has significantly enhanced our knowledge of chronic neurological diseases. It attracts researchers from diverse disciplines such as pathology, biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, clinical medicine, and epidemiology. Substantial contributions to this field have been made through studies involving populations, patients, postmortem tissues, animal models, and in vitro systems.
The Journal of Neuroinflammation consolidates research that centers around common pathogenic processes. It serves as a platform for integrative reviews and commentaries in this field.
