RESUMEN

Herein, we aimed to determine the effect of vitamin D (Vit D) and underlying mechanisms on asthma-induced lung injury via regulation of HIF-1α/Notch1 (hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha/neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 1) signaling during autophagy. We established an asthma mouse model using respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) nasal drop combined with ovalbumin (OVA) atomization. Mice were treated with different Vit D concentrations. Pathological changes and cell apoptosis were examined using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate (dUTP) nick end-labeling) assay, respectively. Additionally, periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and Masson's trichrome staining solutions were used to examine changes in lung tissue. Immunofluorescence determined LC 3B (microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B) expression in lung tissues, whereas western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to evaluate other proteins, including HIF-1α and Notch1. Compared with the normal group, the asthma model group exhibited pathological lung tissue deterioration, elevated fibrosis, increased apoptosis cell numbers, and upregulated autophagy. Vitamin D supplementation ameliorated pathological changes and fibrosis in the lung tissue. Furthermore, Vit D treatment significantly suppressed apoptotic cell numbers and autophagy while enhancing the HIF-1α/Notch1 pathway. Given the HIF-1α/Notch1 agonistic activity, Vit D treatment inhibited apoptosis cell numbers, which were increased following asthma-induced upregulation of autophagy. Vitamin D improved asthma-induced lung tissue injury by suppressing autophagy via regulation of HIF-1α/Notch1 signaling in vivo.
