Daphnetin ameliorates intervertebral disc degeneration via the Keap1/Nrf2/NF-κB axis in vitro and in vivo
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is the primary cause of low back pain (LBP). Enhanced inflammation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels can cause apoptosis, which is one of the initial factors of IVDD. Our previous study showed that daphnetin (DAP) alleviates IVDD; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. An IVDD mouse model was established by lumbar disc puncture to investigate the mechanisms of DAP regulation, and DAP was injected intraperitoneally. Moreover, nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) were challenged with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)/H2O2 to mimic IVDD. Additionally, NPC apoptosis, ROS, and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines were comprehensively assessed. We found that DAP can reverse H2O2-induced ROS and play an anti-inflammatory role by inhibiting Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. Moreover, we found that DAP inhibits the apoptosis of NPCs induced by H2O2/TNF-α. DAP may regulate ROS production and apoptosis via the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1/NF-E2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase-1 (Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1) pathway. These findings were confirmed by in vivo results. The comprehensive nature of our research provides a strong foundation for the potential use of DAP as a therapeutic agent to alleviate IVDD.
期刊介绍:
International Immunopharmacology is the primary vehicle for the publication of original research papers pertinent to the overlapping areas of immunology, pharmacology, cytokine biology, immunotherapy, immunopathology and immunotoxicology. Review articles that encompass these subjects are also welcome.
The subject material appropriate for submission includes:
• Clinical studies employing immunotherapy of any type including the use of: bacterial and chemical agents; thymic hormones, interferon, lymphokines, etc., in transplantation and diseases such as cancer, immunodeficiency, chronic infection and allergic, inflammatory or autoimmune disorders.
• Studies on the mechanisms of action of these agents for specific parameters of immune competence as well as the overall clinical state.
• Pre-clinical animal studies and in vitro studies on mechanisms of action with immunopotentiators, immunomodulators, immunoadjuvants and other pharmacological agents active on cells participating in immune or allergic responses.
• Pharmacological compounds, microbial products and toxicological agents that affect the lymphoid system, and their mechanisms of action.
• Agents that activate genes or modify transcription and translation within the immune response.
• Substances activated, generated, or released through immunologic or related pathways that are pharmacologically active.
• Production, function and regulation of cytokines and their receptors.
• Classical pharmacological studies on the effects of chemokines and bioactive factors released during immunological reactions.
