ABSTRACT
AIM:
Endothelial hyperpermeability is an early stage of endothelial dysfunction associated with the progression and development of atherosclerosis. 3'-Sialyllactose (3'-SL) is the most abundant compound in human milk oligosaccharides, and it has the potential to regulate endothelial dysfunction. This study investigated the beneficial effects of 3'-SL on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endothelial dysfunction in vitro and in vivo. MAINMETHODS:
We established LPS-induced endothelial dysfunction models in both cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) and mouse models to determine the effects of 3'-SL. Western blotting, qRT-PCR analysis, immunofluorescence staining, and en face staining were employed to clarify underlying mechanisms. Superoxide production was measured by 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate, and dihydroethidium staining. KEYFINDINGS:
LPS significantly decreased cell viability, whereas 3'-SL treatment mitigated these effects via inhibiting ERK1/2 activation. Mechanistically, 3'-SL ameliorated LPS-induced ROS accumulation leading to ERK1/2 activation-mediated STAT1 phosphorylation and subsequent inhibition of downstream transcriptional target genes, including VCAM-1, TNF-α, IL-1ß, and MCP-1. Interestingly, LPS-induced ERK1/2/STAT1 activation leads to the HMGB1 release from the nucleus into the extracellular space, where it binds to RAGE, while 3'-SL suppressed EC hyperpermeability by suppressing the HMGB1/RAGE axis. This interaction also led to VE-cadherin endothelial junction disassembly and endothelial cell monolayer disruption through ERK1/2/STAT1 modulation. In mouse endothelium, en face staining revealed that 3'-SL abolished LPS-stimulated ROS production and VCAM-1 overexpression.SIGNIFICANCE:
Our findings suggest that 3'-SL inhibits LPS-induced endothelial hyperpermeability by suppressing superoxide-mediated ERK1/2/STAT1 activation and HMGB1/RAGE axis. Therefore, 3'-SL may be a potential therapeutic agent for preventing the progression of atherosclerosis.Palavras-chave
