The molecular mechanisms of Jiang Tang San Hao Formula alleviating inflammatory responses in diabetic mice via the NLPR3 inflammasome
Formula (JTSHF) on systemic and intestinal inflammation
as well as on the NLRP3 inflammasome in type 2 diabetic mice (T2DM)
and to elucidate its anti-diabetic molecular mechanisms.
Methods
2
Four-week-old male C57BL/6 N mice were used to establish the T2DM model using a high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin injection. The diabetic mice were randomly divided into the model
metformin
and JTSHF groups. A control group was also set to provide baseline comparisons. Each group of mice was orally administered with the corresponding medication daily. The metformin group was orally administered with 0.20 g/kg metformin
the JTSHF group was orally administered with 4.26 g/kg JTSHF
and the control group and model group were orally administered with an equal amount of sterile water continuously for 8 weeks.After an 8-week drug intervention via gavage
the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)
interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β)
and interleukin 6 (IL-6) serum and colon levels were quantified using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The pathological morphology of the colon was observed using hematoxylin and eosin staining. NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)
apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase recruitment domain (ASC)
caspase-1
zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1)
occludin
and G-protein coupled receptor 43 (GPR43) protein expression in the colon were assessed using immunohistochemistry. The mRNA expression levels of NLRP3
ASC
caspase-1
ZO-1
Occludin
and GPR43 in the colon were detected using Real-time PCR.
Results
2
The ELISA data revealed significant differences in inflammatory markers among the groups. Compared with the model group
the JTSHF group exhibited notably reduced LPS
TNF-α
IL-1β
and IL-6 levels (
P
<
0.05). Moreover
compared with the model group
JTSHF treatment upregulated ZO-1
occludin
and GPR43 protein and mRNA expression in the colon and downregulated NLRP3
ASC
and Caspase-1 protein and mRNA expression (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
The inflammatory reaction of T2DM mice is apparent. JTSHF effectively alleviates the systemic and intestinal inflammatory response of T2DM mice by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome and repairing the intestinal mucosal barrier
highlighting the potential molecular mechanisms of the anti-diabetes effects of JTSHF.
