ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
PANoptosis, a new form of regulated cell death, concomitantly manifests hallmarks for pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis. It has been usually observed in macrophages, a class of widely distributed innate immune cells in various tissues, upon pathogenic infections. The second-generation curaxin, CBL0137, can trigger necroptosis and apoptosis in cancer-associated fibroblasts. This study aimed to explore whether CBL0137 induces PANoptosis in macrophages in vitro and in mouse tissues in vivo.METHODS:
Bone marrow-derived macrophages and J774A.1 cells were treated with CBL0137 or its combination with LPS for indicated time periods. Cell death was assayed by propidium iodide staining and immunoblotting. Immunofluorescence microscopy was used to detect cellular protein distribution. Mice were administered with CBL0137 plus LPS and their serum and tissues were collected for biochemical and histopathological analyses, respectively.RESULTS:
The results showed that CBL0137 alone or in combination with LPS induced time- and dose-dependent cell death in macrophages, which was inhibited by a combination of multiple forms of cell death inhibitors but not each alone. This cell death was independent of NLRP3 expression. CBL0137 or CBL0137 + LPS-induced cell death was characterized by simultaneously increased hallmarks for pyroptosis, apoptosis and necroptosis, indicating that this is PANoptosis. Induction of PANoptosis was associated with Z-DNA formation in the nucleus and likely assembly of PANoptosome. ZBP1 was critical in mediating CBL0137 + LPS-induced cell death likely by sensing Z-DNA. Moreover, intraperitoneal administration of CBL0137 plus LPS induced systemic inflammatory responses and caused multi-organ (including the liver, kidney and lung) injury in mice due to induction of PANoptosis in these organs.CONCLUSIONS:
CBL0137 alone or plus inflammatory stimulation induces PANoptosis both in vitro and in vivo, which is associated with systemic inflammatory responses in mice.Key words
