Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common and life-threatening lung disease. This study investigated the mechanism by which dexmedetomidine (Dex) alleviates lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI, focusing on its regulation of macrophage autophagy and polarization. Initially, a mouse model of LPS-induced ALI was pretreated with Dex. Pulmonary function, histopathological changes, apoptosis, macrophage numbers in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), M1/M2 macrophage ratios, iNOS/Arg-1/LC3/P62 fluorescence intensity, and autophagy flux were assessed. Subsequently, RAW264.7 macrophages were treated with LPS and Dex, transfected with si-ACOD1 or si-HIF-1α, and co-cultured with mouse pulmonary microvessel endothelial cells (MPMVECs). The results showed that Dex relieved autophagy flux blockage and promoted autophagy in ALI mice. LPS promoted ACOD1 and HIF-1α levels, and Dex further enhanced their levels to boost macrophage autophagy and M2 polarization. ACOD1 was transcriptionally regulated by HIF-1α. Collectively, Dex mitigated LPS-induced MPMVEC injury and ALI by enhancing HIF-1α-mediated ACOD1 transcription, thus promoting macrophage autophagy and M2 polarization.
期刊介绍:
Genes & Immunity emphasizes studies investigating how genetic, genomic and functional variations affect immune cells and the immune system, and associated processes in the regulation of health and disease. It further highlights articles on the transcriptional and posttranslational control of gene products involved in signaling pathways regulating immune cells, and protective and destructive immune responses.
